ONLY A SMILE.
Only a smile that was given me

Only smile that was giverm me
On the crowded street one day.
But it pierced the gloom Of my saddened
heart
Like sudden sunbeam's ray.
The shadow of doubt hung over me,
And the burden Of pain l bore,
And the voice of Hope l could not hear
Though listened Ger and o'e
But there came rift in the crowd about,
And face that knew passed by,
And the smile caught was brighter to me
Than the blue Of Summer sky;
Forit gave me back the sunshine.
And it scattered each sombre thought,
And my heart rejoiced in the kindling
warmth
Which that kindly smile had wrought.
Only smile from a friendly face
On the busy street that day!
Forgotten as soon as given, perhaps,
AS the donor went her way.
But straight to my heart it went speeding,
TO gild the clouds that were there,
And l found that of sunshine and life's blue
skies
l also might take my share.

Business Habits

There is probably not one farmer in

PRESIDENT ELIOI,S TACT.

President Eliot, Of Harvard, has that
last best gift to m&n-tact. At one time
his students developed an unpleasant
liking for sitting in large numbers upon
the fence that surrounds the college
yard. The President, not desiring such
q thing to become custom, was at 6
loss how to break up this practice. Al
last, one evening, as he was walking
along the sidewalk, and the students
We're sitting on the fence singing, etc,
the President said: Gentlemen, al
low me to congratulate you on having
adopted the Yale custom" He was
never troubled afterward by students
sitting on the fence.

Ex-SECRETARY EY4RTS.

Secretary of State William M.
Evarts and Hamilton Fish, his predeces-
sor as Secretary, live on Second avenue,
New York, in big double houses, sepa-
rated from each other by the three
blocks which constitute Stuyvesant
Square. MIR. Evarts' house is modestly
furnished, and runs over with books ana
pictures, especially engravings. He is
the father OF eleven children; one is his
partner, and Lis daughter has married a
lawyer, with the not-odorous name of
Tweed, who is also his partner, and still
another daughter has married patent
lawyer. Mr.. Evarts at home is very
much sat home,'' for no man of austere
exterior, as he certainly is Cooking not
unlike lay monk, can SO quickly trans
form himself Into boyish, jolly chap.
He brims over with humor, wit, quips
and puns, and is a famous Joker and cpl
grammatist i'll his family or at the dinner
parties he lis constantly giving. He has
been President Of the Union. and is now
Of the Union League Club. One of his
faVorite play-hookey places is, how
ever, not club, but the Brevoort House,
where he meets Sam Ward and the pro-
prietor, Aid. Waite, and other good fell
lows, and where Thurlow Weed, who

take breakfast or lunch. Mr.. Evarts is

OF which he, too, is not only fond but
proud, and where he is a farmer-states-
man. How rich Mr.. Evarts dead might

WILD FLOWERS.

The american Agrscultalrist proposes
hat wild flowers be cultivated in Amer
can gardens. at is possible, in most
parts Of the country, it says, TO make
a beautiful garden without the outlay OF
81 for plants. Could the persons referred
to visit European gardens, or even see Eu-
ropean catalogues, they would find that
the common plants around them are else
whereshighly valued. Aside from the
trees there are many shrubs that may
find place in the garden, and a host OF
herbaceous plants from which proper
selection will keep garden gay the
whole growing season."

TIE WONDERS OF PAPER.

At the Melbourne exhibition there was
q complete dwelling house made entirely
of paper, and furnished throughout with
the same material. There were paper
walls, paper roofs, paper ceilings, paper
foorings, paper joists, paper stairways,
paper carpets, paper bedding, paper.
chairs, paper sofas, paper lamps, paper
frying pans, and even the stoves, in
which bright fires were kept constantly
burning daily, were of paper mache, and
when the fabricator of this mansion gave
a banquet in this dwelling, the table
cloths, the napkins, the plates and cups
and saucers, the bottles and the tum-
blers, and even the knives and forks
were likewise made Of paper.

STRANGE EEEEcTs OF TOBACCO.

A veteran user of the weed in Nor
Wlch, Conn, was recently taken sick and
confined to the house. A physician was
summoned and pronounced his COM
plant disease of the heart. He ordered
the patient to be deprived entirely of to-
bacco, and said he would be able in few
days to tell what the mans chances for
recovery were. The tobacco was stopped,
and then followed season of derange-
ment and visions, less intense and ter
rorizing than those belonging to the
alcoholic frenzy, but annoying and re-
markable to the patient. He saw black
flies in myriads upon the walls of his
room, then thousands of frefys, such as
are seen IN June. These were followed
bymillions of little golden metallic-hued
beetles. He sat beside lovely stream
OF water that wasn't there, and gazed
into its hmpid depths. He saw crowns,
queer garments covered with the heads
OF nails, all sorts of armor and bric-a-
brac enough to furnish every house in
the State. During one whole day the
atmosphere was SO yellow that ne could
not see the neighboring residences an
other day cloudy wells shut out from his
view for brief intervals the objects about
him. His experience, while It has salts
fed him that tobacco affects the brain,
has not destroyed his love for the. weed
which he constantly desires, but is de-
barred from using because of his condi-
tion.-NoTaU5ch Bulletin.

W0RDS. THEIR USE IND ABUSE.

There is a class of misused words, all
TOO common, that are positively vulgar.
Under this head, of course, comes all
slang, of which no well-bred man ought
to be guilty under any circumstances.
To slang may be added such words as
these: "And" III phrases like "try
and do ;" "apt" used for likely; "got"
In combinations like she has got fort
une;" healthy" for wholesome Cob
sters are usually healthy, but they are
considered unwholesome); " companion"
for wife; g female for woman; "lady"
for woman or wife these last three are
superlatives Of vulgarity); 'sparty for
person posted for informed ere
tire for go to bed; superior as thus
applied. ''she is very superior person. -
Probably these few examples viii SUI
fee
Still another class Of misused wor1s
are unemployed IN such ways as to
leave room for the charitable inference
that the writer IS ignorant of their real
meaning. When one Uses "allerna-
tive" the proposition between :" and
the conjunctions ''both-and, - or
"neither nor" to refer to more than two
objects. it is evident that he is guilty of
nolh.ng wolse than gross ignorance.
Phe same conclusion follows when one
