In Mr. Gladstone's household at Hay
warden was an old woman servant who
had son inclined to go wrong. The
mother demonstrated and advised her
boy, but all to no purpose; he seemed
determined on headlong course to
ruin. Al last the mother in her despera-
ton caught the idea that if she could
persuade the Premier to take him in hand
perhaps the prodigal might be re-
claimed. "Screwing her courage to the
sticking point"-for what will mother
not do for her child-she approached her
master and in trembling tones preferred
her request. Mr.. Gladstone responded
at once, and, though the affairs of the
greatest kingdom in the world pressed
heavily upon him, with genuine simple
ity of character he had the lad sent to his
study, when he spoke tender works Of
advice and remonstrance, and eventually
knelt down and prayed q higher power
to help in the work Of redemption. This
kindly action was effectual, and the lad
became q reformed character.

AnalOgles In Nature.

The cocOanut is, in many respects. like
the human skull, although it closely re-
semb!es the skull of the monkey. A
sponge may be held so as to resemble
the unheshed face of the skeleton, and
the meat of an English walnut is al
most tho exact representation OF the
brain.
Plums ard black cherries resemble the
human eyes and an open oyster and its
shell are u perfect image of the human
ear.
The shape of almost any mans body
may be found in the various kinds of
mammoth pumpkins. The open hand
may be discerned in the form assumed
by scrub willows and growing celery.
The German turnip and the eggplant
resemble the human heart. There are
other striking resemblances between hui
man organs and certain vegetable forms.
The forms Of many mechanical contriv-
ances in common use may be traced back
to the patterns furnished by nature.
Thus, the hog suggested the pillow; the
butterfly, the ordinary hinge; the toad
stool, the umbrella; the duck the ship.
Any one DESTROYS OF proving the one
ness OF the earthly system will lind the
resemblances in nature an amusing
study, to say the least.
MORE FORTUNATE THAN DIcKENs.--
Carlyle has been more fortunate than
was Dickens in having his wishes in re-
gard to his last resting place obeyed.
Dickens expressed, in writing, his desire
that he should be buried in . quiet
church-yard in Kent. Clerical influence
was brought TO bear on the family Of the
novelist TO have his body inferred in
Westminster Abbey, and that influence
prevailed.

GENERAL GARFIELD.
His Arrival at the National Capitol.

WASHINGTON, March |. The special train
conveying Gen. Garfield and family, arrived
at Washington at . o'clock this morning
Owing to the uncertainty to the time the
train would arrive, no opportunity for a
demonstration was given on the part of the
citizens. The subcommittee appointed by
the committee on inaugural ceremonies, how
ever, repaired to the depot at 4 A. NJ, and
remained until the train arrived, when Gar
field was informally received in a few pleas
ant remarks by Col. Robert G.. Ingersoll of

for the President elect. who, with his family,
excepting his aged mother. who was driven
direct to the Executive Mansion. was escorted
to the Riggs House, where apartments were
reserved. 1t was Garfield's wish that no
formal demonstrations should occur upon his
arrival, or upon reaching the hotel.
W. ID. Davidge, n member of the sub-com-
mittee appointed to receive the President
elect, delivered a short address on behalf of
the committee, formally receiving him. to
which Garfield responded briefly, thanking
the committee for the complete arrangement
for the comfort of himself and family. and
expressing himself as considerably fatigued
from his journey, which he hoped would ex-
cuse any further remarks at that time. 1t is
expected President Hayes will call on the
President-elect. to-day.
Tomorrow evening Gen. Garfield will dine
with Representative Chittenden, and after
dinner will hold a reception, for which cards
were issued. On Friday morning President
and Mrs. Hayes will turn over the Executive
mansion to President-elect and Mrs. Gar
field. and will spend the remainder of their
STAY in Washington as the guests of Secretary
and Mrs. Sherman. 1t is expected that on
Saturday the retiring President, Mrs. Hayes
and family will leave by special car for
Cleveland. where they will remain four days,
