/" Make the Best Of Things"

There is not in all this house an eye
that has never Wept OF a heart that has
never been broken. We excuse a man
for occasional depression just as we en-
dure rainy day. But who could en-
dure @365 days of cold drizzleis Yet
there are men who are without cessation
somber and charged with evil prognos-
tication. We may be orne with a
melancholy temperament, but that is no
reason why we should yield toit. There
is q way ofshuf1ing the burden. In the
lottery of life there are more prizes
drawn than blanks, and to one misfor-
cune there are fifty advantages. Des-
pondency is the most improbable, feel
ing man can have. One good hearty
laughi is a. bombshell exploding in the
right place, while spleen and discon-
tent are gun that kicks over the man
who shoots it off. Some men are born
opposed to everything. They must
have to get into heaven backward.
Let US stand off from dependencies
Listen for sweet notes rather than for
discords. In world where God hath
put exquisite tinge upon tie shell
washed in the surf and planted a para
disc of bloom in child's cheek, let US
leave it to the owl to hoot and the toad
TO croak and the fault-frder to COM
plain. Take outdoor exercise and avoid
late suppers if you would have q cheer
full disposition. The habit Of complaint
finally drops into peevishness, and peo-
pie become waspish and unapproacha-

In a very logical and common-sense

In a very logical and common-sense
address upon the evils of i4temperance,
one of the eloquent clergymen of New
York city recently said that the custom
of treating" was founded on a benevo-
lent and hospitable feeling, but it was
custom that had done more harm than
oil the enemies the country ever had,
and would result in even greater harm
if permitted to continue. 1t had made
the American nation nation of drunk
ards. More drunkards had sprung from
that custom than from any other cause.
1t was yoke upon the necks Of thou
sands. Men did not like to be called
stingy, which was perhaps the chief
reason why they treated. But let them
abandon the custom, and they would
become help and power in the cause
of temperance. What was wanted was
a custom to correct that of treating"
One man might be strong and able to
resist the temptation of "treat," an
other might be weak and fall. This
thought should, therefore, make an
honest man refrain, lest he might be-
come an unhappy instrument of an.
Others ruin.

A Clever Operation.

A curious occurrence has lately taken
place at the Gardens. One night one oi
the lions was observed to be in q state
of great tribulation, rolling about, and
trying to get something out of his mouth
with his paws. Upon examining the
animal to see what was the matter, MIR.
Bartlett found that great bone had be.
come a fixture in the poor brute,
mouth. The difficulty was to remove
it, as the lion was in fearful temper.
This was done by getting the lion 'inte
a shifting den," where his face would
not be very far from the bars. 1t was
then ascertained that the object in the
lions mouth was the spongy, round
bone, as big as cricket-baI, which
forms the hipIjoint Of the horse. The
lion had had part of a haunch of horse
for dinner, and in amusing himself with
the bone first got his upper large canine
tooth into the soft part of the bone, and,
biting on it, the corresponding carine
tooth in the lower jaw car.e through SO
far into the bone that it neazz!iy met with
the point of the upper. tooth; the jaw
thus became fixed. The animal was
thus prevented from taking food or
water. Mr.. Bartlett, with q great deal
of tact and maneuvring, managed to get
this bone out of the lions mouth, and
lucky he did so, as it was found that the
long projecting portion Of the bone was:
pressing hard upon the lions tongue.
This is the third clever operation in
dentistry that Mr.. Bartlett has per-
formed-frst, removing a big tooth
from the hippopotamus; second, oper-
ating on the base of the tusk of the big
elephant; third, taking a horses leg
bone out of the lions mouth.-Lnad

Great Engineering Feats.

The tunnel of Mount St. Gothard, the
greatest engineering work of the kind IN
the world, has just been finished. The
object of it is to connect the railroad
systems of Germany, Switzerland and
italy, and its construction was deemed
necessary in order TO Offset the COM
mercial advantages that were acquired
by France in the building of the Mount
Gents tunnel, and Austria with her
road across the Semmering, which are
the connecting railroad links for those
two countries with the same portion
of Europe. The chief works of this
kind in the world are four in number
namely, the Hoosac and Sutro tunnels
in the United States and the above-men-
toned. The Mount St. Gothard is the
longest of all, its length being more
than eight miles; the Sutro is the
shortest. being less than four miles.
The Hoosac tunnel Ats miles in length,
and the Mount Gents about seven miles.
All of these great works have been con-
structed in the interest of trade and COM
merce, and with the Atlantic cable, the
Pacific railroads, the Suez canal, and
the Panama. canal, when it shall have
been built, will be among the great in
dustrial monuments of the century. l
the tunnel between France and England
is ever built it will. of course, surpass
ANYTHING ever attempted. Our own
tunnel under the North river, if pushed
to completion, will hold no insignificant
place beside the works we have men
toned; nor in such an enumeration
should our great bridges, like those of
St. Louis, Niagara Fills and Brooklyn,
be forgotten. In works of practical
utility more has been accomplished in
The nineteenth century than perhaps in
all Tic centuries that have preceded it,

A Human Trait.

Burdette, the Burlington Hawkeye
humorist, while, on recent lectur;ng
tour, spent;an, idle hour in the woods .
at BloomviDe, Ohio. There were onlyi
three idle creatures in the woods, hd
says. was the biggest, the Oldest and
the idlest of the three. "A club of
boy, about six or seven years old, was
the next and black and tan dogu

for it, and advised him to site
and never work until he had to, and
then, feeling the same community of
sentiment for the dog, went and helped
him bark at,the squirrel.
The tree was about two hundred feet
high. The dog would probably stand
about thirteen inches from the floor. lie
tried to climb that tree. He barked as
though his throat was all the rams
horns OF Jericho. He was after that
squirrel which YVES just as far out of his
reach as the clouds. And the squirrel
wasn't paying any attention to the dog
and, indeed didn't know what he was
barking, at. 1 am not positive that it
had not gone off into another tree an
hour ago, and was away OFF in another
part of the woods, dowrnear the county
line. So I patted the dogs head as 4
came away, apd said to him:
Carlo. keep it up, It seeps to do
you heap of good, and it doesn't bother
the squirrel a particle, So keep it up.
You can never climb the tree; you viii
never catch the squirrel; when he wants
to come down he will come down an
other way, and you. viii not see him.
Hewill live Just as long and be just as
happy with your noise as without it.
/ It occupies your mind and it doesn't dis
tract his. And it shows very human
trait in you, Carlo. I have known men
just like you; meL who spent their lives
doing Just what you are doing-barking
at the people who were out of their
reach. Keep itup, Carlo, good dog.
