Morality Of Good Living.

A man of the kindliest impulses has
only to feed upon indigestible food for a
few days, and forthwith his liver is af-
fected, and then his brain. His sensi-
bilities are blunted; his uneasiness makes
him waspish and fretful. He is like a
hedgehog with the quilts rolled in, and
will do and say things from which in
health he would have recoiled. Sydney
Smith did not exaggerate when he
affirmed that "old friendships are often
destroyed by toasted cheese, and hard
sailed meat has often led to suicide. {"
Even SO intellectual man as William
Hazlitt, writing to his lady-love, could
say: ct never love you so well as when /
think of sitting down with you to dinner
on boiled scrag- end of mutton and hot
potatoes" Z Justly did Tally
rand inveigh against the English that
they had one hundred and fifty forms Of
religion and but one sauce-melted but
ter. The celebrated scholar, Dr. Parr,
confessed a love for shot Holsters, with a
profusion of shrimp sauce. +" Pope would
lie in bed for days at Bolingbroke's,
unless he were told that there were
stewed lampreys for dinner, when he
would rise instantly and hurry down to
the table.
Handel ate enormously, and when he
dined at tavern, always ordered a din
ner for three. On being told that all
would be ready as soon as the company
should arrive, he would explain: "Den
bring up the dinner, 2oresti8si2ao! am
de company"

JetfersOn's Manners.

When Jefferson became President he
carried his simple manners and tastes
into official life He determined that
his Inauguration as the chief officer of
the Republic should be as free from dis
play as possible. Dressed In plain black
clothes, he rode on horseback to the old
Capitol, without guard Or servants, dis
mounted without assistance, and hitched
his horse to the fence. On the steps he
was met by number of friends, who
accompanied him to the Senate Cham
Der, where he delivered his inaugural adj
dress. During the Administration of
General Washington and John Adams
the sessions of Congress had been opened
in style similar to that by which the
English sovereign opens Parliament.
The President, accompanied by a large
escort on horseback, drove in state of the
Capitol. Taking his seat in the Senate
Chamber, and the House of Representa-
tives being summoned, he read his ad-
dress. Mr.. Jefferson, to whom such
ceremonies were distasteful, swept them
all away by one act. He sent written
message to Congress, which was read to
both houses by their respective clerks.
and that practice has been observed ever
since. Against one of his reforms, how
ever, the ladies of Washington rose up
en- no088e. Mr.. Jefferson, disliking the
levees which had been held at the White
House, abolished them. He established.
two public days for the reception of COM
pany-the LIST Of January and the 4th of
July. On other days he was at home to
all others who came on business or out
of courtesy. Many of the Washington
ladies, indignant at their social pleasures
being thus curtailed, determined to force
the President to hold the customary
levees.
On the usual levee day they resorted
in full dress to the White House. The
President was out taking a ride on horse
back. On his return he saw that the
public rooms were filled with elegantly
dressed ladies' At once divining the,
plot, he appeared before the fair guests
booted and spurTed and covered with
dust So courteous was his reception of
them, and so graceful his manners, that
the ladies went away delighted with the
President, but chagrined with them
selve. They felt that they had been
guilty of a rudeness in visiting a guest
who did not expect them. It was their
last attempt to break through. the rules

A Short Novel.

Mr.. Froude sends us little novel,
which we print with pleasure, and in
small type, as it is paid for by the foot:
1t was autumn.
Yes, merry, golden tinted autumn.
The sun poured down its mellow rays
on the laughing fields of grain, and all
nature seemed to rejoice In the glad
ness of the ample harvest. The little
birds twittered and sang their sweetest
and cheeriest notes in the branches of
the oak trees that sIirted the foot of the
cloud-tipped hill, while the big ones
sat still and looked at them. Far away
to the right lay vast marsh, in which
water-cresses, sweet sedges, and bull
frogs generally mingled.
Don't forget that it was pretty sight.
Suddenly a boat is seen shooting out
from the messy banks that encircle the
marsh like a chaplet of laurel. In the
little craft are seated a young man and a
maiden; he strong limbed and handsome,
his face bronzed by the kisses of the
burning sun and scent-laden breezes;
she fair and delicate like the lily, or
Chicago baseball club
With powerful strokes he sends the
boat shooting through the water, while
the ripples fall away on either side.
Suddenly the maiden utters a faint
shrek, and a pallor o'erspreads her lovely
countenance.
She has seen buli-frog.
One hand drops nerveless by her side,
and from it fell her hat-a dainty thing
of straw and canvass, trimmed with
flowers. The young man at once plunged
into the water to recover the hat. The
cruel waves closed over his fair young
head, the last thing seen being the part
In the middle of it.
But he omitted to come up again.
After waiting until it was betting
point that he had gone to stay, the
maiden rose In the boat and gave a des-
pairing shrek.
"Dead, dead for duck hat" she
moaned and fell over the starboard side,
never knowing that she had got off a
good thing.
That night the sexton in little village
near the lake laid down one pair, and he
was not playing poker either. The pair
was the two lovers who had died that
day, and been fshed out later in the
evening.
But where was the bull-frog that
caused this calamity?
Oh, W re, indeed? Chicago Tri-

Prolonged Stooping.OHer Work.

The London Lancet calls attention to
the danger incurred in the case of young
girls by prolonged stooping-over work
and crossing of the legs. DR.. Malherbe,
with view of obviating these evils, has
invented plan which consists of fixing
to the edge of an ordinary table sort Of
cushion, on which the work can be easily
fastened or spread out, as on the knee.
A framework of the simplest description
admits Of the raising or lowering of this
cushion, SO that work may be done sit
ting or standing, but in either case the
vertebral, column is maintained per-
fectly straight, while the facility of
changeof position greatly lessons fatigue.
To test the invention, DIR. Malherbe in
PRODUCED it at the Communal School of
Nantes, and with good effect on two pu-
pills, who had tendency to malforma-
ton.

A Hawaiian Heroine.

Passing along King street last week.
says the Honolulu Advertiser, we noticed
a gathering of natives, in the center of
which was a middle-aged man, of rather
sickly aspect, and a young girl of some
sixteen or eighteen years. Drawing near,
we found it was one Of those who had
been washed overheard from the Waioh.
and the girl was his daughter. He was
relating their experience while overheard
about an hour and a half. When
thrown into the sea, the man had on
heavy sea-boots and thick clothing.
After swimming a while he began to find
it difficult to keep above water, and told
his daughter that he must soon give up
his heavy boots would sink him. She.
encouraged him to persevere, and she,
would try and rid him OF he boots. She
then dove beneath him, and, after several
attempts, actually succeeded in removing
the heavy boots, which, of course, fitted
very loosely. She dove again and re,
moved his thick wooden pants, which inn
peded his swimming, and then assisted
him in getting off his pea-jacket. Thus
lighted, he was able to keep his head
above water until, at length, the vessels.
boat came along and picked them up.
Was not this Hawaiian heroine?
