The Man With the Umbrella.

Why it is that the public do not look
kindly upon man carrying an um-
brella in hot day is mystery yet to
be solved, but the fact is they do not,
and that not one man in hundred has
the moral courage to carry one. Yes
terday when an eminent and dignifed
citizen coming back from his dinner
turned into Griswold street with an
umbrella over his head, he was accosted
with:
"Been raining down your waya"
"No, SIR"
"Going too"
"No, sir"
"Then you carry the umbrella to
keep the flies Off"
"Yes, SIR"
"Well that's good plan, and eli soft
men ought to practice it."
The next man had grin on his face
as he called out:
"What's that for ?"
"To keep the sun Off"
"What do you want to keep the sun
off for?'
"Might get sunstruck."
"Suppose you did?'
"Suppose you mind your business,
sir?"
The next man presumed upon his
long friendship to halt the man with
the umbrella and whisper:
"Pretty sharp in you, old fellow
keep the bulge toward your creditors
and they can't see you !"
Other men told him that wearing a
poultice on the head would dispense with
the umbrella, and others said that if he
was afraid of his ears being tanned he
should fasten fan on each side of his
hat. Not one single man took him by
the hand and encouraged HIM, and
when he reached the postoffice he was
so discouraged that he lowered the
shade and used it to punch the ribs of a
boy who had begun to sing:
Hes flat-he's feller,
And he lugs an old UMBRELLA

The Careless Use Of Ice.

It is only in this country that ice
enters SO largely into the apparent COM
fort of its inhabitants, and very dan-
gerous comfort it is. Dyspepsia and
number of evils follow directly in the
train of the consumption of ice. TO
the great pitchers of iced water so
temptingly displayed on hot days may
be traced number of maladies, for 1t Is
evident that no person can, without
danger, suddenly and violently lower
the temperature of his stomach by fill
ing it full of water at thirty-two degrees
Fahrenheit. That valuable organ will
certainly resent the insult, especially if
followed up by repeated injuries of the
same kind. In the tropics, where the
ice has more temptations surrounding
it than in any other part of the world,
the inhabitants most carefully avoid it.
You cannot get Cuban to indulge in
iced water. People who have been
previously addicted to the foolish habit
of using ice-water, after visiting the
West Indies, forever eschew the dan
gerous practice. A party of men who
recently visited San Domingo on bust
ness (who would go there for any other
reason?) on the first arrival mourned
greatly at the absence of ice. "Ah,"
said they, "when the English steamer
runs in here we will go aboard aud
have a treat in the shape of good iced
brandy and Soda"
The steamer arrived in due time. The
ardent foreigners jumped into the boat
of the captain of the port Ia negro gor-
geously arrayed in uniform covered
with gold lace) and, barely saluting the
captain, rushed to the saloon for the
coveted refreshment. 1t was duly alb
sorbed, and the whole party rendered
i'll in consequence. None of them have
ever touched ice since that time. In
the West Indies it is only the colored
race which patronizes ice to the white
people it is not only no luxury, but a
dangerous enemy. Ice has its uses in
the hospitals it is invaluable for the
preservation of provisions, especially
fish, it is useful, although detrimental
to flavor if allowed to touch the meats
to be preserved; but as an article of
human consumption it should be avoid
ed. There is yet an essay to be written
upon the maiadies and woes produced
by the careless consumption OF ice. 1t
is only with US that this takes place.
Abroad, ice is simply luxury only re-
sorted to at times; even in California
| the residents are wary of it. In sholt,
ice is very good friend in moderation,
but bitter enomy when the intimacy
is too absorbing. g.-NeD York Hour.

WISE WORDS.

A handsome man and fool may wear
the same cap.
Children have more need of models
than of critics.
The failure of one man is the oppor-
tunity of another.
A handful of common sense is worth
bushel of learning.
The best people need Affections for
trial of their virtue.
II man has nothing to do you may
be pretty sure that Satan is looking out
for an employe and will soon find one.
Fine connections are apt to plunge
you into sea of extravaganza, and then
not to throw you arope to save you from
drowning.
They who are weary of life, and yet are
most unwilling to die, are such those
have lived to no purpose-who have
rather breathed than lived.
Such is the marvellous ductility Of
gold that q single ounce of the pure
metal may be drawn out into a wire
thirty-three miles in length,
Wrong-doing is road that may open
fair, but it leads to trouble and danger.
Well-doing, however rough and thorny
at first, surely leads to pleasant places.
An unkind word from one beloved
often draws the blood from many
heart which would defy the battle-ax of
hatred or the keenest edge of vindic-
tive satire.
If you hate your enemies you Will
contract such vicious habit of mind as
will by degrees break out upon those
who are your friends, or those who are
indifferent to you.
The grandest and strongest natures
are ever the oaImest. A fiery restless
ness is the symbol OF. frailties not yet
outgrown. The repose of power is its
richest phase and its clearest testimony.
Mems lives should be like the days,
more beautiful in the evening; or like
the spring, aglow with promise; and like
the autumn, rich with golden sheaves,
where good works and deeds have
ripened on the field.
In the depths of the sea the waters
are still; the heaviest grief is that borne
in silence; the deepest love flows
through the eye and touch; the purest
Joy is unspeakable; and the most i'm
pressive preacher is the silent one whose
lips are closed.

Hunting ia a Cemetery.

Greenwood cemetery, in Brooklyn
embraces five hundred acres and is
traversed by twenty miles of drives. 1t
is we'll named the City of the Dead,
for it is already the final resting place
of more people than New York had
when the cemetery was started forty
years ago, or nearly 100000 persons.
1T is also a considerable haunt OF the
living, many of this portion OF the in
habitants causing no little trouble to the
official trapper. More than 10000 ami
mails. large and small, have been shot or
trapped within the cemetery bounds
since 1876.
The largest game was fox, trapped
in 1878, and the smallest moles and
ground mice. The official figures for
five years (1S76- lS80) are as follows
Ground mice, l4,O96; chipmunks, 1858;
moles, 1880; snakes. 366 rats, 2OS ;
cats, 895; dogs, 1877 skunks, 10;
muskrats, 8; fox, Il total, 20, 465. All
this work has been done 10y one man,
who is expressly engaged for this pur-
pose. His name is Fritz Wagner, put

men employed in the cemetery as the

A Curious Trap.

Among the discoveries made recently
in the great dead sea of the West, were
some gigantic oyster shells, more than
six feet long, each pair of which once
contained an animal that the average
boy reader of 50. Nicholas could not
lift. In other localities shells of but
one valve were found fifteen feet long,
and each of these was inhabited by a
cutie fish, that forced itself through
the water by method like that used t.
shoot rocket up into the air; and
some authorities say that these cutie
fish attained length of even thirty
feet. These long fellows had a long
name, Orthocerotite, and they had q
cousin, the Ammonite, which grew as
large as cart-wheel.
Such were some of the shells of a
thousand years ago; to-day the only
really large shell is of the clam family.
1t is named 1riaaena gigas, and is found
in the Pacific ocean; the length of its
life being sixty or seventy years. 1t
grows imbeded in the coral and is fast
ened to the rocks by o cord called the
byssus, which is so tough that it can
only be cut with an ak. The shells
themselves are six feet long, each valve
weighing more than two hundred and
fifty pounds; while the animal part
often weighs thirty or forty pounds.
When alive, the tridacna lies with its
great valves aiar, capturing any food
that may pass within the scalloped
edges. A shark was once caught in
this way, as shown in the picture.
Swimming along in search of food, he
unwarily passed into the doorway OF
the great CLAIMS house, his tail rudely
striking the animal. Like fash the
tremendous jaws snapped together,
squeezing the man-eater as if he Were
in a vice, and rendering him utterly
powerless. AS the tide went down, the
sharks head appeared above water,
thrashing about and churning up the
sea. The hubbub attracted the atten-
tion of some natives, who soon cap
tured both shark and clam.-S. Micho.
