A French Farmer.

The lot of French farmer is neither
happy nor jolly. He fares frugally on
soup and the thinnest of ordinary red
wide or cider. The stock of his soup is
bacon, and he eats butchers meat only
twice week-that is on Sunday and
market-day. When he attends market
he makes succulent dejeo,eea' and
drinks a good deal of beer at the cafe.
This is his only cheerful time; at ordln-
airy seasons he is morose, troubled about
the weather, the CONSUMPTION which is
going to take his son in the army, and
about politics, of which he understands
just enough to be in constant dread Of
revolutions. He is conservative that is
to say he upholds the government of the
day, whatever it is, for fear of anarchy !;
but no government is popular with him,
for every administration finds it neces-
sary to lay on new taxes. The climate,
however, is in his favor. A bad harvest
is not a common thing in France, and a
succession of bad harvests never occur.
It is lucky for the French farmer that
this is so, for there are few French
landlords who would be in position
to remit any part of years rent after a
bad harvest. The rule in France is that
farmers rent must be paid as punctually
as dodgers rent. If it be not paid,
election is resorted to at once, and no.
body thinks of looking upon the tenant
as an ll-used man.

Whales.

The birthday of whales is celebrated
occasionally in the public schools like
that of the poets. The following is a
little girls composition prepared lately
for that occasion:
"Whales is big fish. Whales live a
long time and don't die when they get
old. We had railroad whale here a
little time ago, just for show. Whales
don't always travel that way. They
mostly go by water so they can sea more.
Most people like to go by rail deadhead,
but whales amt like most people.
"a good while ago people used to
make light of whales, but they don't
some now faint quick enough. The
lamps won't blow up.
eve wouldn't have no newspapers if
it wasn't for coal oil, and railroads, and
pistols and so forth !; cause there would
MT be no news.
Whales is like shoes-right and left.
Our railroad whale was right whale.
Sometimes whale gets left when the
tide goes out-kind of united. May be
there is other kind of whales. Some Of
the boys catch EN- in school, but don't
like that kind, they amt interestin' to
girls"

Trades Against Women.


Some of the old writer's have said hard
things about the women. Socrates
averred that it would be more tolerable
to live with a dragon than woman !;
sMohammed> excluded women from the
paradise into which he admitted sheep,
whales, ants and parrots; Seneca vowed
the only thing which made virtue proba-
BILE in a woman was her uglness Thu
cydides asserted the best woman to be
she of whom least could be said, either
good or bad Montaigne said that good
women are not to be counted by dozens !;
and Swift considered women to be only
little higher than the monkeys. We
are told in a French epigram:
When Adam, waking first, his lids unfolds
In Eden's groves, beside h1m he beholds
Bone of his bone, flesh Of his flesh, and knows
His earliest sleep has proved his last repose.
"Do you WISH" says Madame Neckar,
to spread an opinion, address yourself
to women they will easily accept it, be-
cause they are ignorant; they will spread
it quickly abroad, because they love to
talk they will long uphold it, because
they are obstinate" But all these ILL
natured remarks were applied to the
women of other days and to women in
other countries. In the United States
the women, as mass, are superior to
the sex elsewhere, and can afford to smile
at these TRADES abroad. The American
women, as whole, are the best in the
world.

A Graceful Woman.

What is more charming than an agree
able, graceful woman? Here and there
we meet one who possesses the fairy
like power of enchanting all about her !;
sometimes she is ignorant herself of the
magical influence, which is, however,
for that reason only the more perfect.
Her presence lights up the home; her
approach is like the cheering warmth !;
she passes by, and we are content; she
stays awhile, and we are happy. To be-
hold her is to live; she is the aurora
with human face. She has no need to
do more than simply to be; she makes
an Eden of the house paradise breathes
from her, and she communicates this
delight to all, without taking any great
or trouble than of existing beside them.
Is not here an inestimable gift?

Tribulatfons of Amateur Poets.

Trlbulat1Ons OF Amateur Poets.
Rodney Mcclellan has been compelled
to pay verdict of $500 in breach-of-
promise case at Barrie, Canada, the evil
dence Of his promise being the following
verse which he wrote to the plaintiff I:
Long have loved, but some strange spell
Forbade my heart it's tale to tell.
Here, take this card, and simply feel
The love my lips dare not reveal.
Henry Horace Dade, of San Francisco,
sent an enemy postal card on which was
written an original and highly personal
song, with this refrain:
Everybody, everybody knows, knows knows,
u You're the very biggest beat that grows.
Dade's effort cost him a fine of $50.

cate to them. but that in order to
avail themselves Of the benefits Of it
they must all be in their seats at the
very moment appointed for beginning
the service. 1t turned out that all he
had to communicate was the express
sion Of his pleasure at finding them
all in their seats in season. Only two
persons were late, and the others
grinned at them as they came in on
tip-toe and took their seats. It was
the impression of most of those who
were thus lured into a spasmodic
punctuality that the minister had
sold them very cheap.

Origin of the Word Ro0rback.

Nathan Guilford, once a well-known
citizen of Cincinnati, was an active Wing
politician, and editor Of an energetic
Wing paper. On April l, of certain
year, he published circumstantial ac-
count of experiments by a German
chemist named Roorback. Roorback
had been examining the chemical con
stituents of eggs Of different birds, sup
posing it might be possible at last to
compound hatchable egg According
to the story, after putting many of his
manufac tured eggs to the animal heat of
different patient mothers, he at las.
happily succeeded in Matching one egg
and produced a living bird. The story
then goes on to describe very infinitely
the strange creature, anatomically,
physiologically and every other way,
initiating the scientific style used in
similar cases. The story read very well,
and was copied into many other papers,
and, after going the rounds of the press
in all parts of the United States, it was
at last CATER three or four months) dis
covered to have been first published on
the LIST of April.
+ The Cincinnati Enquirer democrat
icy Immediately fixed upon MI. Guilford
the name of Roorback, which was there
after held to mean political liar,
although the story had nothing to do
with politics. Being we'll stuck to, the
name at last became pretty well fixed,
and Mr.. G. was for many years well
known in the political field as Old
Roorback.
