father is only railroad man, whose du-
ties call him away from home nearly
three-fourths Of the time. 1t was his
habit, whenever be was about to start
for home, to telegraph his wife apprising
her of the fact. In these telegrams he
never failed to mention the name OF the
little 14,year-old, and the dispatches
ususlly ran as follows:
"Tel Arthur l shall sleep with him
tonight "
The haby-boy was very proud of these
kilograms, which his mother would read
over and ovet to him, and he considered
the "teledraf" great institution. The
other night when the fever had done its
work and the mother was sobbing out

in his bed and said:

when an imploring cry from a wounded
Swede, lying on the field, made him turn,
and, with the very words Of Sidney,
"Thy need is greater than mine," he
knelt down by the fallen enemy to pour
the liquor into his mouth. His requital
was pistol-shot in the shoulder from
the treacherous Swede.

POLICENESS AT HOME.

A boy who is polite to his fa'her and
mother is likely to be polite to every
one else.
A boy lacking polteness to his pa
rents may have every semblance OF cour
tesy in society, but is never truly p lite
n spirit, and is in danger, as he becomes
familiar, OF betraying his real want of
courtesy.
We are all 10 danger OF living too
much for the outside world, for the i'm.
preston which we make in society, COW
citing the good opinions of those who
are in a sense part of ourselves, and
who will continue TO sustain and be in
terested In US notwithstanding these de-
fects of department and character.
We say to every boy, and to every
girl, cultivate the art of courtesy and
pr0priety at home lin the sitting room
and in the kitchen as we'll as in the par
lor-and you will be sure in other places
to deport yourselves in becoming and
attractive manner.
When one has pleasant smile and de
meapor, it is satisfaction to know that
these are not put on, but that they belong
to the character, and are manifest at all
times and under all circumstances.

The Violin,

OF all the musical instruments the
violin is the most enduring. Pianos
wear out. wind instruments get battered
and old-fashioned, the pipes of organs
become scattered and the original con-
struction is lost sight of. All kinds OF
novelties are introduced into flutes, but
the sturdy violin stands on its own mer-
its. Age and use only improve 1t, and
instead of new ones commanding ths
highest prices, as is the case with other
instruments, it Is the victims of the few
Italian makers OF the last three centu.
ries that command fabulous prices. 1t
is impossible to handle an old violin
without feeling of veneration, when
one reflects on the number of people
who have probably played on it, the
weary hours it has beguiled. the source
OF enjoyment it has been and how we'll
it has been loved.

Queer English Breach of Promise
Suit.

Year after year Parliament has been
urged to repeal the law prohibiting
widower's marriage with his deceased
wife's sister; but the law still stands.
and involves many awkward compica-
tions. At Liverpool recently, an action
was brought by Anna Rowland, domss-
tic servant, to recover damages from
Stephen Amer; butcher, for an alleged
breath Of promise of marriage. The
defendant, In 1877, lost bis wife, and
the day after her funeral, asked the plain
tiff, who was her sister, to come to his
house and look after his children. She
did so, and, at the desire Of the defend:
ant, afterward gave up her situation and
staid with him permanently, attending
both to the children and the domestic
About three months after the death Of
bis wife the defendant urged the plain
tiff to marry him, but she declined on
the ground that it was not seemly to en-
tertain the proposal 80 early. Eight or
nine months afterward, however, he re.
newell the offer, and the plaintiff then
accepted him, and they became engaged.
So completely did the defendant trust
his affairs to her that she had all the
control of the business, managing the
shop, keeping the notes and cash, and
collecting the accounts. The judge ask
ed il counsel admitted the fact of the
plaintiff being the sister of the defend
ants deceased wife. Counsel could not
deny the fact. His lordship then said
that ended the case at once. A man can
no more marry his deceased wife's sister
than he could marry his grandmother-
This was matter of common knowl-
edge, and when man could not legally
marry a woman he had promised to
make his wife, there could not be an ac=
ton for breach of promise of marriage:
