Manner and ITS Influence.

Many a person who has nothing
but a sweet manner to recommend
him. is remarkably popular among
his fellows. Suave people seldom 60
out of their way to help friend in
distress, but they have a smile fer
everybody, which costs nothing.
They lubricate the paths of their pill
grimage with SOFT words. "If they
feel obliged to decline" doing the favor
which you ask of them-and this
they are pretty sure to do-they re.
fuse with such a grace that they seem
to be confering an honor upon, you.
Others are unpopular, simply because
of their want of manner. They may
be just and generous, bu; they are
not always careful to confer favors
with gentleness and amenity. Those
whom they aid do not love them
any better for their gifts. They new
er give unless they are satisfied that
the gift is needed, and will be right
~ used. They never give, merely
because they are asked to give.
They do not make Il parade of their
gifts, because they are not liberal for
the sake of making themselves popu-
lar. They are far better friends than
the first named class, but they are
not nearly so well beloved.

Now, imperfect mastication is a
very common condition, and is the
source of a great deal of the dyspep-
sia with which we meet. 1t may
nave several cases. Decayed teeth
are one cause. Even when, on cur
sorry examination, the teeth appear
to be fairly sound, small spot of

tender, and its posessor uses the other
side of the mouth almost entirely for

generally, carefully stopped, but who
have large blanks in either Jaw,

cesty of catching a train shortly after
meal, or by swallowing the food
during too brief an interval from bus

reading about or thinking of, during
meals, such subjects as relate to ones
daily actions. So long as a man
reads about something which has no
direct reference to his own activity,
do not think it does him much harm
but. if his Thoughts be directed toward
any thing which concerns his active
life, the case is very diferent.-T

CUI BONO.

What is hope? A smiling rainbow
Children follow through the wet;
'Tis not here-still yonder, yonder;
Never urchin found 1t yet.
What is life? A thawing ice board
On y sea with sunny shore:
Gay we sail, 1t mets beneath Us;
We are sunk and seen no more.
What Is man? A foolish baby
Vainly strives, and fights, and frets;
Demanding all, deserving nothing,
One small grave is what he gets.

A strange calm succeeded this
storm. Itwas caused by some words
uttered by my tOrmentor. You
really must forgive l could not re-
frain from laughing. My name is
Robinson. Your friend Mr.. Robert
son lives IL one of the other houses.
We frequently get parcels and letters,
and even callers coming to the wrong
house ; but in all my experience we
have never had so amusing mistake
so early in the day as this one.'
Now this explanation toned down
my anger considerably; but the
words which followed were like balm

AnInvestmentoDror

Messrs. Kuhn, Loeb & Co.,, of New York, have placed on the market $5,OOo, ,O0O loan of the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul rail way company, in the shape of five per cent. 40 year gold bonds, due 1921, and secured by 8 first mortgage upon the Chicago and Pacific western division of the system of the company. The interest is payable semi annually in gold coin on the first days of January and July. These bonds are issued for the purpose of making important addi- tions to the various lines of the company, more especially the southwestern position of the system, and are emitted only at the rate of $20,OOO per mile of completed and equipped road and for bridges and rolling stock. The deed of trust is very explicit and provides that none of these bonds can be issued except for the before-mentioned purposes when actually accomplished. The company has always paid seven per cent. on it's preferred stock, and for 1880 paid seven per cent. on it's common stock. The net earnings last year were $:5, 343, ,692, and after paying all fixed charges and seven per cent. on both classes of stocks had 8 balance O1 $SO2, ,995, which added to the surplus of pre-. vious years leaves an undivided balance oi income of $3. 369,97 This shows that the bonds are good investment, and as they are likely to be rapidly absorbed, investors in tending to purchase would do we'll to make early application. They are now offered al 100 and accrued interest, subject to an ad vance in price and to closing of subscription without notice.

The Show CT.

The shower yesterday came up suddenly about o'clock with 8 densely black sky in the west, and soon the whole sky was overcast The city got touch of the rain, and passably light drizzle followed, winding up with light streaks of golden sky in the west for sunset The grass in the old Green looks about as fine as anyone could wish, and what velvety carpet it looks like! The farmers say hay-ho, we shall have grass crop, but they don't care for another solid week of rain.

The Late Editor Bacon.

J. W. storrs, of Birmingham, in writing about the late Father Bacon, of the Tro,a- script, concludes: ''Mr. Bacon belonged to and was an honored member of the old edi- torial school of thirty years ago, which was frightened by such names as Minott A. Os- born, Thomas G. Wood ward, John B. Car rington, of New Haven, and the venerable E. B. Cooke, of Waterbury, with all of whom he was on the most intimate terms of friend ship. In his politics and in his religion he was broad, conservative and charitable holding to the religion of humanity as the outcome of the religion of Jesus. Let all who have in the past been the associates of our ascended brother, and who must hence- forth miss his genial grace and friendly hand from their daily wa k, learn to emulate his many virtues, and, in the meantime, with us drop the tear of genuine sympathy and sor- row upon his grave"

A S15Q0 Fire.

In Waterville,a suburb of Waterbury, there was fire Friday night, and MT. George Ford's store and most of it's contents were destroyed A hotel and Lewis Garrigus' house near by were in great danger, but were saved. Mir. Ford's stock was valued at $4, 5OO insured for $3,7OO in two companies. The building was owned by H. L. Welch, of the Welch Hosiery company, and Mrs. Dem ing Markham, each possessing half inter est; the insurance on this was $2,OOO. A singular coincidence is that Mrs. Markham sent MT. Welch, on the day of the fire, the money to pay the insurance dues. MT. Ford, the owner of the store stock, was in Water bury when the fire broke out and MT. Garri- gus, whose house was so much endangered, was also in Waterbury with his family, at- tending the Pirates" performance at City Hall. This like the other fire in Waterbury last week is believed to have been incendiary work

Ordination of William HI. Thra1l.
An Interesting Occasion in Derby.

An Interesting Occasion in Derby.
 William Herbert Thrall, of the class just graduated from Yale Theological Seminary, and member of the Dakota Band" was ordained on last Friday at the Derby Congre- gational church, of which his brother IS pastor.
 The council was very fully represented. Rev. Dr. Hawes, of North church, New Haven, was chosen moderator, and Rev. Thomas R. Bacon, of Dwight Place church, scribe.
 Tho candidate was clear-headed and evi- dently sincere, and the examination was pro- nounced very creditable. The ladies of the church had provided an exceedingly tasteful and bountiful collation. in the lecture room. The table was adorned with cut flowers in abundance, and large epergne occupied the center. The church was also beautifully decorated with azaleas, hothouse plants cut flowers and notices in evergreen. The ord1' nation service took place at o'clock. The invocation was by Rev. Dr. Leonard of Naug atuck, reading of scriptures and prayer by Rev. c. F. Bradley of Birmingham. Dr. Lyman Abbott, editor of the Christian Union delivered telling address on the great Home Missionary society and the duties of eastern churches in reference to it, using as his text the parable of the lost sheep.
 Dr. Hawes, of New Haven, pastor of tho candidate, made very fervent and touching ordaining prayer, and was assisted in the lay ing on of hands by Dr. Abbott and Dr. An derson of Waterbury.
 One rare and interesting feature was tht giving of the charge and the right hand by the candidates only brothers, Rev. .Brainert Thrall and Rev. George s. Thrall. It was regretted that the venerable father also clergyman, who left a pastorate in Nev England twenty years ago to be Hom' missionary in Illinois, could not be presen and bless h1s son.
 The programme was varied by approprlat musical selections, closing with hymn writ ten for the occasion by brother of tn young missionary.

 In reply to applicants, permit me to say that the position of organist at the jail brings no salary; only volunteers need apply. It would be less burdensome for two persons each to serve every other Sunday. Who will volunteer? If done from right motives the pay is sure, and of more value than bank vault full of gold, and the invitation to the work is from very high authority.
