Yes, know there are stains on my carpet,
The traces of small muddy booti;
And | see your fair tapestry glowing.
all spotless with blossoms and fruits
And | know that my walls are disfgured
With prints of small fingers and han 2 /;
And that yonr own household most truly
In immaculate purity stands
And | know that nv parlor is Uttered
With many old treasures and toys;
While your own is in daintiest order,
Unharmed by the presence OF boys
And | know that my room is invaded
Quite boldly all hours of the day;
While you sit in yours unmolested
And dream the soft quiet away
Yes, know there are four little bedsides
Where ! must stand watchful each night
While YOU go out in your carriage,
And fash in your dresses so bright.
Now, | think Pm a neat little woman !;
like my house orderly, too;
And Pm fond Of all dainty belongings
Yet would not change places with YOU.
No keep your fair home with its order,
Its freedom from bother and noise,
And keep your own fanciful leisure,
But give me my four splendid boys

the afternoon, and if you viii keep him an

Then the lady entered her carriage and
drove to jewelry store. There she Sc
lected $1,000 worth of jewelry, which she
said was intended for the trousseau of her
daughter, about to be married. She gave
the name of wealthy family recently ar
rived in Cincinnati, and said to the pro-
prietor If you will let one OF your clerks
step into the carriage with me, will go to
my husbands store and give him the money
for the goods. The proprietor consented,
and the clerk, with the goods in a box, en-.
tered the carriage with the lady, who said
she wished to stop on the way and show
her purchase to friend. They drove to
the asylum and were shown to the parlor.
The Superintendent entered, and the lady
said quite calmly to the clerk Just open
the box and show the things to this gentle
man."
The clerk unsuspectingly complied.
Carelessly drawing near, the lady sud-
denly seized the box, and was walking out
of the room with it when the astonished
clerk cried
:" Hold on, madam; l must not let those
goods go out of my sight until get the
money"
The lady did not deign to notice the
clerk, but, turning to the Superintendent
of the asylum, said
This is the young man spoke to you
about. He is getting little violent. You
had better secure him."
1t was in vain that the clerk protested
that robbery was being committed. The
Superintendent was memorable. He called
his assistants to secure the clerk, while the
lady walked to her carriage with the 81 900
worth OF jewelry-[New York Sun.

NATURES UNDERTAKES.

How often do we hear the query,
"What becomes of the dead birds ?" The
secret Of their mysterious disappearance
was but Just now half told by the buzz of
those brown wings, and the other half
welcome to any one who will take the
trouble to follow their lead This BEETLE is
one of mans incalcilable benefactors. 1t
is his mission TO keep fresh and pure the
air we breath. He is the sexton who
takes beneath the mold not only the fallen
sparrow but the mice, the squirrels, and
even much larger creatures that die in our
woods and fields.
Beneath that clump OF yarrow / found
just what had expected small dead
bird-and the grave diggers were in the
midst of their work. Already the rampant
of fresh earth was raised around the body,
and the cavity was growing deeper with
every moment, as the busy diggers exca-
waited the turf beneath. Now and then
one would emerge on a tour of inspection,
even rummaging among the feathers of that
silent throat, and climbing upon the plumy
breast to press down the little body into
the deepening grave.
These nature-b urials are by no means
rare, and where the listless eye fails to dis
cover them the nostril will often indicate
the way, and to any one DESTROYS of wit
Messing the operation, without the trouble
of search, it is only necessary to place in
some convenient spot of loose earth the
carcass of some small animal The most
casual observer could not iall soon to be
attracted by the orange-spotted beetles.
Entomologisrs assert that these insects are
attracted by the odor of decay but from
my own humble Investigations have never
been able to fully reconcile myself to this
theory.
If it were the question of odor alone in
this dead bird, for instance, it would be
difficult to explain the Decline flight Of
these humming beetles, two of which came
swiftly toward me even from the direction
of the wind, and dropped quickly upon
the grass Perhaps in such an instance
we might imagine that they had been there
before, and knew the way that they had
noted this clump of yarrow, maybe; but |
have observed the fact before when there
was every reason to believe that no such
| previous visit had been made.
am always glad of the opportunity to
watch the progress of these meadow burials.
And had you accompanied me on that
morning walk, you would have looked with
interest at those little undertakers- seen
that feathery body toss and heaye with
strange mockery of life as the busy sections
worked beneath it, digging with their
spiked thighs, shovelling out the loose
earth with their broad heads, and pulling
down the body into the deepened cavity.

THE SAND BLAST.

Among the wonderful and useful inven-
tions of the times is the common blast.
Suppose you desire piece of marble for a
pravestone .you cover the stone with a
sheet of wax no thicker than wafer /;
then you cut in the wax the name, date,
ETC.. leaving the marble exposed. Now
pass it under the blast and the sand shall cut
It away. Remove the wax and you have the
cut letters. Take piece Of French plate
glass, say two by SIX feet, cover it with
fine lace and pass it under the blast,
and not thread OF the lace will be in
iured, but the sand will cut deep into
the glass wherever it is not covered by
the lace. Now remove the lace and
you have delicate and beautiful figure
raised on the glass. In this way beautiful
figures of all kinds are cut in glass at q
small expense. The workmen can hold
their hands under the blast without any
harm, even when it is cutting away the
hardest cutting glass, iron or stone, but
they must look out for finger nails. for
they will be whitfield off right hastily. If
they put on steel thimbles to protect their
nails, it will do but little good, for the
sand will soon whittle them away, but if
they wrap piece of soft cotton around
them, they are safe. You will at once see the
philosophy of it. The sand whites away
and destroys any hard substance even
glass-but does not affect substances that
are soft and yielding like wax, cotton, fine
lace, or even the human hand.

HUMAN SALIVA Poisonous If the state
ments contained in a late memoir by M.
Gautier are well founded, human saliva is
essentially of the same poisonous nature
as the substance which is secreted in the
fang-sacs of the venomous class OF serpents.
By lixiviating and purifying twenty
grammes of saliva he obtained material
which, when injected in the form of a So
luton under the skin of bird, produced
trembling, coma, and complete stupor,
and finally, death. This substance bears
a close resemblance to the ptomaiues which
Bourardel and Boutrny obtained from cada-
vers, and it is thought to be an alkaloid.
When it is mixed with ferrocyanide of
potassium it produces Prussian blue. Un-
like true virus it retains its poisonous
property after being heated to 100 degrees.
The popular belief that the pain caused by
human bite is but trifing compared with
what may afterward result would appear
to be not all superstitous.

"THR PASSION PLAY" Frank Gardner
is agitating .'The Passion Play again.
He finds it a convenient means of OBJ.
tanning cheap notoriety. This time he
assures the public that he has positively
settled upon its production, and even
goes so far as to announce the cast, which,
by the way, it is rather curious to OBJ
serve, contains the name of James O'Neil.
OF course the whole affair is an advertising
scheme. Mr. Gardner has probably no IL
tention whatever Of producing the play.
The statement, which is published in a
New York paper, credits Mr.. Gardner
with saying that he has already " selected
the city in which The Passion Play will
be produced, and a theater in it rented.
The cast is made up, and he says he is
only awaiting the convenience of James
O'Neil, who is at present engaged to an
other manager, to put his purpose into ex-
ecution. The cast, he says, will be Jesus
Christ, James O'Neil; Pontius Plate,
