CANDIDATES in OLD Rome had to come
before the people in white robes. But the
candidate in his night shirt on the Repub-
!ican state ticket in New York runs so far
behind his ticket that the Roman fashion
of political drapery is not likely to come
into vogue.
If the Democracy of Schuylkill and
Northumberland, with big party major
tiles behind them, shall wonder why they
failed to elect their candidates for judge,
they may easily discover the reason in the
fact that they did not put up their best
material for this high office. Even politi
cal majorities are not to be trflcd with.
THE defeat of Astor leaves the Republi.
cans without a majority in the House o.
Representatives. In fact. it is a curious
coincidence that the condition of the
House from a political point of view is
almost exactly that Of tho Senate. With
the votes of Judge Kelley and Mr.. Smith,
Of Brooklyn, and of the two Grecnback
Readjustcrs from Virginia-Paul and
Faulkcrson--thc Republicans will just be
able to tie the Democrats. The Green.
hackers hold tho balance Of power, and
when did they fail to improve such situa
ton to the greatest profit:

to drop blot on a haE-fnished sermon.
The door opened and a man entered.
The corners of his mouth were turned
down as though to give emphasis to his
face. His clothes suggested that he
worked at livery stable in subordi-
nate capacity, and his hat was as i'll
shaped rs though it had been tramped
upon by COW.

The good minister was much moved
by the poor mans strong appeal,
and, taking down a Bible, he presented
it to the pleader. Late in the evening
the minister was standing in second
hand book store, when man entered
and said to the proprietor

Never talk Mt one another, either alone

Let each strive to yield oftenest to the

Always leave home with loving words,

Never find fault unless it is perfectly

Do not herald the sacrifices you make

Let all your mutual accommodations
be spontaneous, whole-souled and free

They who marry for physical charac-

Never reflect on past action which
was done with good motive and with

The use of restaurants has become SO
general all over the world that IL will be
interesting IN many to hear how they
originated, and to what they owe their
now familiar name. 1t appears that the
first of these establishments was started
in 1865. by a man rejoicing in the not
inappropriate name of Boulange. This
dGte has, however, nothing to do with
the choice of the title by which tlH new
houses of entertainment were known.
In order to explain this we must 60 back
to the seventeenth century, ut the end
of which one Of the soups, or liquid ali
ments, most used by the people was n
bOuiitOn known as the "divIne restorer. 4"
1t was made up of the remains of fowls
and viands boiled down in an alembic,
with crushed barley, dried roses and
Damascus currants. AS it was only the
class of comparative well-to-do per-
SONS who could afford such luxury, a
genius was required to bring the "di-
vine restorer" within the reach of all the
multitude. He was found in certain
doctor named Guilliard, who proposed
to provide "an excellent substitute" for
the real nectar by cooking fat fowl in
a little aromatized water, and selling the
6ouitlon as "divine." At that time the
privilege of cooking and serving ragouts
was reserved for the traiteurs, or licensed
victualers, and that of providing set
dinners was secured by charter to the
corpol alton of the rotisseurs But the
new sellers of the restaurant divin"
were free lances, bound by no particu-
lar rule, and they moreover claimed to
have more select set of clients than the
common eating-houses.. Consequently
the restaurants, as they came to be
called, soon achieved an extraordinary
reputation, and at length their proprie-
tors found it necessary to combine with
their old profession that of traiteurs,
which word was in the process eclipsed
by the more new-fangled term restaura-
tcttr.

His Speech. .

It was the birthday of old Col. Whale.
He was veteran of two wars and he
had reached his S0th year. The mill
tary company resolved to surprise and
crafty him by recognizing it. They
marched oown right in front of his
house with twelve-pounder, nd, load
ing her up, began to fire i'll good shape.
They thong it would send the warm
blood flying through the Colonel's veins
to hear tho familiar sound. 1t did. At
the third shot the old veteran appeared
at his door with the fire of battle gleam-
ing in his eyes, his gray locks streaming
i'll the wind, and his old musket in his
hand. "Give him a chance to smell
the burning powder Fire the cannonl ="
cried the commander of the company.
The Colonel rushed down to the cannon
and pushed the men away. He mounted
it. "a speech A speech |" they cried.
He mot oned for silence, and all was
still. Then the veteran raised his voice !:

mean 10y firing this cannon in this way ?
You've broken every piece of glass and
crockery in my house !" They took
the cannon and marched away.-B0ston

The consumption Of mutton in
this country would be largely increa-
sed If Americans knew better how to
raise and cook il. We are improv-

English mutton chops at their "chop

this country. Something is proba-
bly, due to the excellence Of English
pastures. Mutton.growing would be
much more extensive and profitable
with US but for the nuisance of dogs.
