SCHOOL LEARNING.-A female teacher of Il
school, that stood OH the banks of a quiet
English stream, once wished to communicate
to her pupils an idea of faith. While she was
trying to explain the meaning of the word, a
small covered boat glided in sight along the
stream. Selling upon the incident for an il
lustration, she exclaimed
eff I were to tell you that there was leg of
mutton in that boat you would believe me,
would you not, even without seeing it your.
selves 20
eyes, ma'am" replied the scholars.
''Well, that is faith" said the schoolmis-
treSs.
The next day, in order to test their recollec-
tion of the lesson, she inquired
What is faith 20
"a leg of mutton in boat,'n was the an,
swer shouted from all parts Of the school
room.

ten fail to get on in the world because they neg
lect small opportunities. Not being faithful
in little things, they are not promoted to the
charge of greater things. A man who gets a
subordinate situation sometimes thinks it not
necessary for him to give it much attention.
He will wait till he gets place of responsible
ity, and then he will show people what he can
do. This is very great mistake Whatever
his situation should be he should master ii in
all it's details, and perform all it's duties faith
fully. The habit of doing his work thorough
ly and conScientiously is what is most likely
to enable young man to make his way. With
this habit person of ordinary ability would
outstrip one of greater talent who is in the
habit of sighting subordinate matters. But,
after all, the adoption by young man OF this
great essential rule OF success shows him to be
possessed of superior abilities.
sWr1AT FOR DINNER ?"-''If only knew

sonable variety Of food is indispensable to
bodily comfort and health not necessarily a
variety at each meal, but from day to day and
week to week. There is hardly anything more
delectable than brOiled steak and mashed po-
tatoes. if you are only hungry and have not
partaken of them for considerable time but
let them be set before you every day for months,
UNMARRIED in their manner of preparation, and
YOU get to dislike them. Potatoes boiled with
their skins on are nice enough for anybody !;
but let potatoes so cooked be the order of every
meal, and everything that bears resemblance
to a potato peeling will soon become an OBJ

SODA wITH A WINK IN TT.
How A PRETTY GIRL CREATED a SENsA
TIoN IN A TEMPERANCE LODGE.


There is beautiful young lady-a
temperance girl-who has pair of
eyes that sparkle so that a stranger
would think she was winking when
she looked up and smiled. She would
not wink for anything, but when she
smiles the selvage around her eyes
4 seems to draw up and-well, if it isn't
4 a wink it is well calculated to deceive.
She was on the way to the temperance
lodge the other night and stopped at
4 the fountain to get glass of soda,
k and when the clerk asked what flavor
she would have, she looked up at him
n and smiled and said: II will leave
Il that to you" The clerk said after
e ward, when her brother came In after
lodge was out to whip him, that he
q would have sworn that she winked.
a 1t seems that some of the customers
Il want a little brandy in their soda, and
II the proprietor told the clerk that when
n anybody winked and looked cunning
N 10 put IN little brandy with the fla
Torng. He SAID she was one of the
wlnklng customers, and he thinks now
e ne might have put in little too much.
W Inc Noble Duke of the lodge refuses
10 accept the explanation up to this
''me, though it is thought he will get
over his annoyance before the next
meeting, and let the girl remain a
member if she desires to do so, though
|f shs says she does not see how she can
ever look the brothers and sisters in
'ne face. They tell two or three sto-
i'es about it, but the version of the
'fand Worthy Chaplin of the lodge
seems to be accepted as the only true
lone.

girl said; "cet 'em up; soda with per-
tn--(hic) merry in it." AS the quar-
terly password was, "Strong drink is
raging" and the inside sentinel smell
ed liquor on the breath of the appIi-
cant, she thought some saloon charac-
ter was trying to get into the lodge,
so she drew her stuffed club, the badge
Of her office, and opened the door.
Seeing that it was member, the
guard let the girl ia, after reprimand-
ing her for levity, and the girl march
ed to the center Of the room a little
shaky in the legs. The custom is for
a member on entering to 60 to the
middle of the floor, look at the Grand
Worthy Chairholder, place the right
index finger to the right side of the
nose, and keep it there until the chair
man responds, when the newcomer
takes seat. The girl instead placed
her thumb to her nose and wiggled her
fingers and went and took a seat be-
side the Chaplain and put her feet on
the desk in front of the good man. If
large fire cracker lDaded with Bour-
bon whisky had exploded in the lodge
room it would not have created such
CONSERVATION.
The Chaplain tainted, the worthy
Chairholder declared recess, and the
members all gathered around the sis
ter, whose face was flushed. Her hair
was scrambled, caused by taking off
her hat without removing the hairpins
her frizes were around her left ear,
and one bang on the back of her neck,
while the places where her hair was
parted ran across her heau from ear to
ear. Her brother came up and put
her feet down from off the desk, asked
her if she had been run over by wa
gon or chased by dog. Everybody
smelled the liquor, and when the chief
accused her Of having tampered with
the soul-destroying beverage, which
steals away the brain, she told him he
was prevari chic )cator." and hit him
on the ear with a gavel. The sisters
tried to get her to go into the ante
room and soak her head, but she said
she wanted to ride the goat, and she
took running jump and sat upon a
table as though it was a side-saddle
and laughed so loud that the brothers
thought she would disturb the worsh.
ippers in saloon not far away. Fin
ally the choir struck up the tune
"Cold Water, Bright water" and the
soda girl sang Johnny, fill up the
bowl" and tried to put he thumbs IL
the arnholes of her vest and walk like

There is great deal Of illusion
about the rise of the Nile. 1t seems
to be thought that for a few weeks
the delta and the valley of the Nile
are lake, and then that they are a
muddy swamp. The water of the
Nile flows into canals; from thence
it is pumped every morning, as long
as the rise lasts, into small rills, which
permeate the fields, which are thus ir-
rigated every morning. The water
evaporates every day, leaving in the
evening dry mud. Thus, except IN
some low lying districts, there is new
er an expanse of water or mud.
