A CASTOR-OIL REBELLION.

Five pale and delicate looking. but
neatly dressed, little boys filed into the
sanctum, ranged themselves in row,
and the spokesman said: "Note these
pallid looks =? Castor oil. Note these
shrunken limbs? Castor oil. Note this
lack of abdominal rotundity? Castor
oil. Note this unanimous stunt? Cas-
tor Gil. We are the unfortunate sons of
female woman with a mania for castor
oil, VIII which she doses us every night
until we can bear it no longer, and, be-
ing DESTROYS to break through this I'M
natural bondage, we wish you would say
a good word for us in the paper" We
promised, and the five fled mournfuIy
out. The more you look at this, the
more sad it grows.-New Haven Regis

PRESERVING SaEDINEs.

Not less than 10000 persons are en-
gagged In the sardine fisher IL France,
and fully as many find occupation in
preserving" this fish. A writer in the
Journal Of the Society of Arts says that
in taking the sardine the bait, which is
called rogue, plays an important part.
This lure is kind of caviare made
from the eggs of cod preserved in
brine, $4,000 barrels of which are
imported from Norway every year.
When the position of a shoal is ascer-
tanned, the nets are let down and the
master of the boat throws the bait,
mixed with sand to cause it to sink, into
the water. Emerald-green flashes on
the surface of the water denote the rise
of some of the fish. Then the bait is
literally cast out, and, soon the whole
shoal rises into the nets. At one time
boat could take 10000 sardines, but now
it is rare to bring in more than 5000 to
5000 at a trip. When the boats land
the sardines are taken to the factories in
hampers containing about 500 apiece.
There women cut off the heads of the
fish, open and clean the bodies, and
place each fish. one by one, on stone Or
marble slabs, previously strewed with
salt. While this preliminary drying is
going on the fires are lighted and the
purest olive oil is put into immense
caldrons. When the oil is boiling the
sardines are laid in layers in iron-wire
baskets provided with handles. These
baskets are plunged into the oil and
then placed on shelves covered with zinc
to drain. When they are moderately
dry they are taken to the large drying
houses, exposed to the sea-breeze. and
there they remain until they are fit to
to be sorted and put into boxes. The
largest are considered the finest, and
the small ones are frequently passed off
as anchovies.

4 GOLDEN DEED.

It was during the wars that ragged
from 1852 to 1860, between Frederick
III. of Denmark and Charles Gustayus
Of Sweden, that, after battle, in which
the victory had remained with the
Danes, a stout burgher of Flensberg
was about to refresh himself, ere retiring
to have his wounds dressed, with a
draught Of beer from wooden bottle.
when an imploring cry from wounded
Swede, lying on the field, made him
turn, and, with the very words of Sydney,
"Thy need is greater than mine" he
knelt down by the fallen enemy to pour
the liquor into his mouth. His reouital
was a pistol-shot in the SHOULDER from
the treacherous Swede.
"Rascal!" he cried, CT would have
oefriended you, and you would murder
me In return. Now will I punish you.
[ would have given you the whole
bottle; but now you shall have only
half"
And, drinking off half himself, he gave
the rest to the Swede.
The King. hearing the story, sent for
the burgher and asked him how he came
to spare the life Of such rascal.
"Sire, said the honest burgher, "I
could never kill wounded enemy"
"Thou meritest to be noble" the
King said, and created him one imme-
diately, giving him as armorial bearings
wooden bottle pierced with an arrow |!
The family only lately became extinct in
the person OF an old maiden lady.

"THERE are two sides to everything, |"

"TKRE are two sides to everything, {"
said the lecturer (; ST repeat it, there are
two sides" At this juncture tired
looking little man stood up in the front
seat to say: Swell, if you've no OBJ :
jections, I will just step out and see if
there are two sides to this hall. I
know there is an inside, and if I find
there is an outside you'll know it by my
not coming back. You needn't be
alarmed if I shouldn't return" And as
he walked up the aisle he was followed
by the admiring eyes of the whole au-
dience. Their sympathies were with
him, but they were deficient in moral
courage.

JEWELRY.

An authority on iewelry says: EN-
eraldsare once more in vogue, though
nothing has ever detracted from the
favor which they enjoyed, save their
rarity and consequent expense. But,
for the purpose above alluded to, the
emerald is almost indispensable, as no
other style approaches it in color.
this age of cheap and clever imitation,
the hitherto unassailable domain of
precious stones is very strongly men
aced. The unapproachable lustar of
diamonds has been perceptibly furnished
by the more vulgar radiance of Rhine
stones, and the exclusive dignity of ar
tistie lace has been sorely tried by the
efforts of prosaic machinists, with their
modern democratic inventions.

CHICAGO girls have discovered that by
keeping five or six beans in the mouth
the voice is given al cold, aristocrat-

CERTAIN rich young men of Chicago,
who possibly know more about the ac-
emulation of money than they do of
etiquette, hay e engraved on their visit

to which they belong.
YES, girls, adopt the new fash
ica and curl the hair, plat it, tie in

A WRITER says that Washington ladies
who carry pistols are fastidious about
the mountings Of the weapons, often
paying as much as eighteen dollars for a
tiny revolver. Some of them are good
markswomen, and they have not yet
furnished a single case of didn't -know-
it-was-loaded.
A MUSICIAN thus defines the ladies /:
At Is years Of age lady is an arpeggio;
at 20 years of age lady is an allegro
vivace; at 30 years of age lady is an
aceordo forte; at 40 years of age lady
is an andante; at so years of age COM

age it is tremolo ALA sordina.
THERE was nothing peculiar about a
recent Toronto wedding up to the point
when the married couple quilted the

bands arm, got into her fathers carriage
and returned home alone. She refused

ton of her conduct.
Mrs. JANE G. Sw1ssHE1M says "We
need standing army about as much as
we need ostrich feathers" IF Jane was
a giddy young thing of sweet II, or
thereabout, she would say: "We need
ostrich feathers ten times more than we
need standing army" Young women
can worry along without a standing
army, but they must have ostrich feath-
ers.

OUR JUVENILES.

The Selfish Oyster. i
There once was selfish old Oyster,
Who lived like monk in a cloister,
Safely housed in his shell,
Like monk in his cell,
Though the bivalve's apartment was moister.
Anchored tight in the mud Of the bay
This lazy old party did stay,
Nor cared he to roam
Very far from his home,
For exertion, he thought, did not pay.
And you will be wondering, think,
What he did for his victuals and drink.
Well, the Oyster was sly,
And when young crabs came by
He would catch them as quick as wink.
Then in him the poor crabs had to stay
Till in time they had melted away.
So the Oyster got fatter,
And the crabs-but no matter
For crabs have no souls, people say.
"And oho!" said the Oyster, said he;
"What lucky old party be!
Like King in his pride
wait here, and the tide
Every day brings my living to me-"
But there came grim Star-fsb, who spied,
Our friend lying fiat on his side;
For the greedy old sinner
Had just had his dinner,
And row could not run had he tried.
With spring to the Oyster he came,
And he threw his FIVE arms round the Same.
He shut OFF his breath,
And ne squeezed him to death.
Then he ate him, nor felt any shame.
The point Of this story, my dears,
Just "as plain as pikestaff" appears.
But please give attention,
While briefly mention
The moral again, for your ears.
Don't be greedy and 1--we but to eat,
Caring only for bread and for meat;
Nor selfshly dwell
All alone in your shell
Don't be oysters, in short, repeat. 4
Blu. youI find it much better for you
To be Kind, and unselfsh, and true; j
Then you'll not lack friend
Your cause to defend,
When Star-fsh rolls into your view. :,

UNWORTHY RATION. sEEKERs.

The lower portion Of Washington avenue
has been kept lively since the news went
abroad that there were government ra,ions
to be distributed among the needy poor.
1t is surprising that only one in fifty of
the applicants is white.
How many OF the continual stream Of
colored people succeed in procuring sup.
plies / can't tell, but that only few are
suffering from hunger can be told by actual
observation.
Many Of them remind me Of the fat,
sleek diaries who were fa,tened with ample
supplies Of bacon, corn bread and molassts
prior to their sale. One Of these asked
ifshe were hungry. With good natured
grin, she said: Else hungry as the rest Of
EN-" and trudged merrily on.
Another said it didn't make her hungry
to beg. She liked TO work, bat, being
closely questioned, acknowledged it was
her dau, liter.
NtIl lcN nctIH luHhsc ItsirNVV VIC tcIDp-
tation to get supplies when they are fur
nishcd gratis. Many don't know how to
cook rlce and few will take the pains and
time TO cook homiDy decently.
Some who were not lucky enough TO get
meat, questioned among themselves if they
could get grease" sufficient to season ''the
things" with. On observing one Of the
qncstioucrs, ] thought it most likely not.
Shf,ess specimen, that would fare badly if
dependent on self for support. Able bodied
mon like the rest, but idle and good for
nsught, also hike the rest.
Aud doub, the wisdom OF taxing the
industrious to furnish supplies even for ono
day or one meal for such.
Cairo, like the colored people, has grasp
ed what it really did not need, except in
few instances, and merits in measure the
bad luck she has been receiving in the way
of water and the approbrium cast upon
her by'people from out the city. +. ii.
