Fame.

Lord Byron was not far out of
the way when he defined fame as
being killed in a battle and hay
ing your name spelled wrong in the
Gazette" There is a good deal of
emptiness in fame. Some of the
first men of the world, whose names
have been, and will be, revered by
succeeding generations, have been
called upon to suffer disrespect
through being personally unknown.
The words of Bunthorne: ooh, hol-
low, hollow, hollowr may be APP

Greeley was once relegated to the
attic of Chicago hotel, as being 4
party of no particular consequence.
Prof. Agassiz was characterized az
crazy Dgtchman trying to catch
bugs. Gov. Andrews was denied
admission to a camp of Massachu-
sets volunteers by a sentry who
didn't know him and refused to be
convinced. The tragedian Band
mann, on giving his name to the
doorkeeper of theatre, was refused
admission unless he could prove
what band he belonged to. Elk
President Hayes, at Cleveland, while

Thu Dull Bow Takes the Caka.

More than fifty years ago q very
good private school was taught up.
on Nantucket Island, Massachu-
sets, by an excellent Quaker gen
tleman. Among the children who
attended the school were two
brothers, very unlike each other.
The one was slight in form, grace
full and attractive. The other was
his exact opposite, clumsy, awk-
ward, and withal dull.
One morning the father of these
two boys called TO see the teacher,
and was told plainly by the latter
that the boy whom we have called
''unattractive" never would make
any thing. "You are mistaken,
sir was the reply Of the parent.
"If you and ! live we shall hear
from that boy" Both gentlemen
are deceased, but last week the boy
was heard from. His name is
Charles J, Folger, and he is secreta-
ry of the United States treasury.
The schoolmaster first mentioned
the incident when Judge Folger was
made assistant treasurer at New
York-with a quiet smile at his
want of discernmept

The Use Of Short Words.

We must not only think in words, but
we must also try TO use the best words,
an those which in speech will put what
is in our mind into others. This is the
great art which those must gain who
wish to teach in the school, the church,
at the bar, or through the press. To do
this in the right way they must-use the
short words which wo learn in early
life, and which have the same sense to
all classes of men.@The English of our
Bible is good. Now and then some
long words are found, and they always
hurt the verses in which you find them
Take that which says 40 re generation
OF vipers, who has warned you 10 flee
from the wrath to Gomez There is
one long word which ought not to be in
it, namely, generation" In the old
version the old word "brood' is used.
and you feel its full force. go We vi
viper's brood, who hath warned you to
dee from the wrath TO come? - Crime
sometimes does not look like crime
when il is set before us in the many
folds OF a long word. When a man
steals, and we call it "defalcation," we
are at loss to know II il is a blunder
or . crime. IL he does not tell the
truth, and we are told il is case OF
"prevaricatinn,' itEtakes US some time
to know just what We should think of
il. No man will ever cheat himself into
wrong doing, nor will lac be at loss
TO judge OF otOers, il he speaks Of acts
in clear, crisp terms. Ii is good rule,
il one Is at a loss to know IL an act Is
right or wrong, TO write it down in
short, straight-out English.-[ HOratio

These efforts are working a silent but

To the praise of the decent paper it
may be said that where it has place in

by the young and old, it has developed
such healthy tone and such discrimi-
mating taste that the literature OF the

The man who goes 10 law and wine

The man who goes to law and wins,
loses. Law was once an excellent de-
vice for the determination of undispu-
ted rights, but the old system OF juriS-
prudence, founded in barbaric ages and
customs, is not applicable to the intrl-
cate and independent relations OF men
to-day. An old saying among lawyers
is, that there is one thing the Almighty
does not know, and that is the verdict
of Jury. There Is growing distaste
among business men to indulgence in
tedious, costly and unsatisfactory litiga-
ton. A disposition to submit differen-
ces among merchants to arbitration, and
there are commercial bodies wherin
mem bership is forfeited il differences
are not adjusted in accordance with the
society's rules, which require arbitra-
ton. The experience in this direction
is favorable to an extension OF the Gus
tom. Merchants understand their own
affairs better than judges, lawyers and
juries can DO made to understand them.
An arbitration committee OF five or
seven level-headed merchants can settle,
and settle better, more disputes in n
week than court could in a month.
The cost of litigation is out of all proper

by commercial and other bodies could
