The Whales Deadly Foe.

THE Daisy Whitelaw surprised the
observant city-fronters by coming back
boOtless from her last chase of whales.
In explanation of their bad luck the
sailors stated that they had fallen in with
a herd of "killers, which had made
such havoc among the whales that it
was impossible to get fish. This is the
first time that the presence of " thrash
ers " has been reported so near to this
coast. Along the Atlantic coast they
are occasionally seen, but on the shores
of Europe and in the Middle Atlantic
they are oftener observed. The fisher
men, with that liveliness of imagination
common TO most seafarers, tell weird
stories of the ferocity of the killers and
their implaoable enmity to the whale.
There is no doubt, however, that the
killer or thrasher, or grampus, which is
its proper name, is a formidable animal,
and it is likely that the stories of his
fierce conflicts with the larger cetaceans
have n foundation of fact. He is ex-
ceedingly vOraciOus and entirely car
nivOrous, and being swift as well as
strong, finds no difficulty in obtaining a
choice and plentiful diet of cod, halibut,
skates and other toothsome and indOlent
fish. On a pinch he will make a meal
off a seal, and with this liberal bill of
fare to select from, any labouous efforts
to thrash whale to death with his tail
or gnaw at the huge cetacean's vitals
must be regarded as evidence of pure
maliciousness. That is the view the
staff of the Daisy Whitelaw take of
it. Scientifically described, the gram
pus is a porpoise-like cetacean be-
longing to the genus phOc@Ha. The
name grampus is regarded as a cor
ruption of the French grand poisson
/ Qarge fish), to which he is entitled by
his size. lie attains q length of twenty
five TO thirty feet, with circumference
of ten to twelve. The snout is shorl
and rounded, the jaws remarkably pow
erful, and the teeth, which are forty-twC
in number, large and hooked. Thus
equipped, it is quite within the ability o
u herd of grampuses to follow whal,
and tear the monster until he yields NJ
his blubber in the ingenious manne
fishermen and whalers describe, ,-Sai

Doing Her Best.

A PARTY of Detroiters who were fish
ing for brook trout on the Boyne River,
and camping on its banks, ran out of
supplies, and an envoy was sent out to
beg, buy or borrow something until an
order sent to Traverse City could be
filled. After q walk of two miles he
reached log house in the woods. A
woman, five children, three dogs
and family of tame coOns occupied
the one single room in the house. The
furniture was all homemade, the table
ware consisted entirely of tin dishes,
and only one bed was visible. The en-
voy stated his errand, and the woman
replied: d" Flour! l reckon we run out
o. flour yesterday, and we won't have
any more till next week"
"Can you spare any coffeeP"
81 guess not. The last coffee we had
run out on Christmas. If we git any
next week I'll spare some.n
How about teaPn
"Well, tea has been purity skeerce
with us for the last two months, but
Ben said he thought of gittin' some long
this fall. If you are around here when
our tea comes, Wen divide with you"
"You haven't any potatoes to spare,

"Well, now, you ought to have been
here last week for 'taters. cooked the

dren sot heap by cold Eaters, and
they go off like hot cakes. Ben is go
ing to git some more long about Satur-
day.

couraged envoy.
"Well, now, l don't believe we have,
but we are going to stock up long in

night that I'd got kinder tired of

History Of the Beard.

In the earliest Pagan times the primi-
tive deities were represented with ma
iestic boards. In France they PLAYED
downward. Under Clovis, indeed, the
beard of the King was an object of pc
culiar veneration, and, indeed, every in
dividual was more or less sensitive re-
garding his beard. 1t is related that
after the great battle of Tolbiac, Clovis
sent a deputation to the defeated Alaric
requesting him to come and touch the
victor's beard as token of alliance.
Far from accepting the invitation in the
spirit in which it was offered, the en-
ragged King of the Huns seized the
Frankish emissaries by their boards and
hauled them out Of the room by their
revered locks. The unfortunate ENJOYS
returned rather crestfallen to Clovis,
narrated what had happened, and swore
"on their boards" TO ayenge the af-
front. In subsequent reigns the beard
was the object of numerous enactments,
and the fashion of wearing il was
changed as frequently. Sometimes it
was worn long, sometimes close-clipped,
now peaked, now plated, or even
decorated with pearls and gold trinkets.
Even in the sacred atmosphere of
Rome itself boards were the object of
considerable discussion. Different Popes
laid down different rules on the subject.
One Pontin enacted that no boards were
10 he worn; another as stringently di-
rected that the razor was never 10 be
applied to the chin. Saints Clement of
Alexandria, Cyprian, Jerome, and
ChrysOstom engaged in vehement CON
troversies about the mode of wearing
the hair about the face in the fourteenth
century. In France the final triumph
of boards dates from the Renaissance,
when the example set by the great art
lists, who largely indulged in these ap-
pendages, was closely followed by the
sovereign and other magnates Of the
land. Under Henry III shayen chins
were the mode, the mustache being
worn long and dropping. During Hen
ry Tvs reign boards, cut square, came
again into fashion, and mustaGhes were
curled; while under Louis KY boards
were again tabooed, and the mustache
alone worn, and in the two following
reigns the razor was in full use. Under
the Republican regime, as also under
those Of the Empire and Restoration, no
boards were grown. They came In
again, however, with the Revolution of
1880, in company with many other
changes of costume, etc, and Mt the
present day no universal rule exists on
the matter London Globe.

A Word to You, Young Man.

FIRST: BE honest. BY which we do
not mean, simply, not to steal. That
goes without saying. The young man
it clever to cheat his tailor, or to sneak
out of his little debts at college, has al
ready laid a sure foundation of ill
fortune. Nothing is known 30 quickly
or sticks to a man so long as the repu-
tation of dishonesty. 1t is the ileck of
mildew which eats and grows blacker
and spreads from year to year. Boys
are fatuously blind to the lengthening
shadow which these faults of sharp
dealing and lying in their earliest years
throw down their whole future. In a
year or two they will be asking for
patronage from the public or a chance
in the business world, and they will
find that in damaging their character
they have already squandered their
only capital. No merchant would take
a boy, even as porter, into his employ
who was not known to be honest. We
take it for granted our boys are honest,
in the cOarser meaning of the term.
But there is a finer honesty that enters
into a man S nature and lifts him above
his lbllbWa' 1lo Is no Sutdh uOt SuhlLls
neither to his companions, his God, nor
even to himself. He does not sham a
virtue which he has not; he does not
initiate any other mans character; but
he tries to go to the bottom of his own
to clear it and lift it up.
As the boy begins so the Nan will
end. The lad who speaks with affecta-
tion, and minces foreign tongues that
he does not understand at school, will
be weak chrome in character all his
life; the boy who cheats his teachers
into thinking him devout at chapel will
be the man who viii make religion a
trade and bring Christianity into con
tempt; and the boy who wins the high
est average by stealing his examination
papers will figure some day as a tricky
politician. The lad who, whether rich
or poor, duh or clever, looks you
straight in the eye and keeps his answer
inside of the truth already count,
friends who will last all his life and
holds a capital which will bring him il
a surer interest than money.
Then get to the bottom of things

kisses is the saddest and cruelest exper-
ience of infantile life. Babies ought to
be protected from promiscuous and in
discriminate kissing by statute; and
pretty girls, too, for that matter. But
would pretty glrls inform against their
prosecutors and avail themselves of the
privilege Of the law? But there are ter
rible presages in the realm of habyhood.
There are babies tumbling I'D tossing
restlessly in their cradles in whose eyes
portents of evil are foreshtdowed;
babies whose innocent, xpre,,ionless
features, rosy and dimped, are
destined TO be distorted with
unbrdled passion; whose fists will
be doubled with brutal intent; whose
nownerveless hands will become iron and
grasp the knife OF the pistol with muir
derOus purpose; whose hearts will be
convulsed with ungovernable rage; and
whose souls, o horror of horrUrs will
be stained with the blood of their fellow
creaturesl And there are babies doomed
to pinching poverty which degrades the
body and dwarfs the soul; babies des-
tined to be reared in the noxious atmos-
phere of vice and crime all the healthy
currents Of their lives poisoned by a
deadly moral malaria. What has been
will again be. Not only are the philoso-
pliers, statesmen, poets, orators, and
humanitarians of the future now sleep
ing unconsciously in the cradle, or.
growing with infantile delight in the
arms of fond mothers, but the great and
little criminals, the murderers, and the
thieves, the traitors and the robbers, the
wretched little street waits who will sub
sist by petty larceny and the colossal
plunderers who will live off the fruits of
giant conspiracies and fraud-all these
vices Of the future are concealed be-
meath the mask of baby faces.
The cradle is a veritable Pandora's
box, whence emanate not only all the
ills and mischief which afilict mankind,
but all the joys and blessings which
make life endurable. The chiefest Joy
is the spectacle of the mother bending
over the sleeping or waking infant. Her
face is irradiated with the glow of hope,
that inestimable benefaction to mankind
found at the bottom of JOve's casket of
secret wonders presented TO Pandora.
Buoyed by this supreme stay of the soul
-hope-the mother sees in the baby's
face only visions of surprising peace,
unstained virtue, happy content, or
worldwide renown.- Chicago Tribune.
