ARTEMNS T4RD.

Ward started with an announcement
that he would lecture on "The Babes in
the Wood" He said he preferred this
title to that of "My Seven Grandmoth-
ers." Why, nobody knows, for there
was, of course, to be as little in the
lecture about babes, in or out of thu
wood, as about seven or any number of
grandmothers. "The Babes in the
Wood" was never written down; a few
sentences only have survived of per-
Torrance which was destined to revolu-
tionize the comic lecturi1g of the age.
The BABES" seem only to have been
alluded to twice-frst at the beginning,
when the lecturer gravely announced
"The Babes" as his subject, and then,
after rambling string of irrelevant wit
ticisms, which lasted from an hour to an
hour and half, he concluded with, "I
now come to my subject The Babes in
the Wood" Then, taking out his
watch, his countenance would suddenly
change-surprise, followed by great per-
plexity. At last, recovering his former
composure, and facing the difficulty as
best he could, he continued: "But I
find have exceeded my time, and will
therefore merely remark that, SO far as I
know, they were very good babes; they
were as good as ordinary babes." Then,
almost breaking down, and much more
nervously: 'I really have no time to go
into their history; you will find it all in
the story books" Then, getting quite
dreamy: "They died in the woods,
listening to the woodpecker tapping the
hollow beech tree" With some sur
prised emotion: {" 1t was a sad fate for
them, and [ pity them; so hope do
you. Goodnight % The success of this
lecture was Instantaneous and decisive.
The reporters complained that they
could not write for laughing, and split
their pencils desperately in attempts to
take down the jokes. Every hall and
theater was crowded to hear about the
"Babes," and the "Lyceum" lecturer
of the period, "what crammed hisself
full of high-soundin' phrases, and got
trusted for SCOT of black Clothes" had
nothing to do but to go home and destroy
himself. Good Words.

DANA KRUM, one of the conductors on
the Erie railway, was approached before
train time by an unknown man, who
spoke to him as if he had known him for
years. GO 1 say, Dana, I have forgotten
my pass, and want to go to Susque-
hanna. I am afreman on the road, you
know" but the conductor told him he
ought to have pass with him it was
the safest way. Pretty soon Dana came
along to collect tickets. Seeing his man,
he spoke when he reached him :Say,
my friend, have you the time with you 2"
eyes," said he, as he pulled out watch,
" it is twenty minutes past g." "Oh,
it is, is it? Now, if you DON'T show me
your pass Or fare I will stop the train.
There is no railway man 1 ever saw that
would say twenty minutes past g. He
would say 800" He settled.

The publisher of weekly newspaper
in Michigan before the war was under
the saddle and h.tched to a wagon to
boot. He carried a load of doubt,
debt and anxiety which would have
crushed Secretary of the Treasury in
one, brief week. A dollar was cart
wheel in his eyes, and two cart-wheels
IN the eyes of his employees. 1t is WV
idly remembered by the writer how a
certain publisher in an interior town
felt as happy as King when he could
send for two bundles of paper at once,
and it is more vividly remembered that
he never saw the week when he could
buy one bundle Of paper and pay off the
hands, too, in cash.
One day a printer died. Perhaps he
gradually starved to death, or may be
the anxiety as to how he could buy both
wood and -four the same Saturday fin
ished him of. At any rate a new
printer came up from Grand Rapids to
fill the gap, and his wages were to be
$12 per week. On the first Saturday he
got an order on hardware store for $40
and So in cash. On the next he got a
boot and shoe order for SO and $3
order on grocery. On the third he
had to take a Sc order on ivery-stable
and let the balance go over. His fourth
Saturday had arrived, and he had 81
due him. An order for that amount on
a saw-mill man was quietly laid on his
case and the books balanced, but he
protested
"Why, I can't use this order"
"Why not?"
81 don't want any lumber
"You don't?"
"No, sir.
The publisher looked blank, scratched
his head, and after minute hurried
over to the desk with the remark
81 see-al right. I'll tear this up
and give you one on cooper for $40
and another on tie undertaken for SS !!
You had better arrange to get married
and settle down here"
The printer went out of that town
that evening by a very muddy highway,
having disposed of his orders for So in
cash and sachel to hold his spare
shirt. detroit Free Press.

"REASON ENOUGH"
L" "Back, [ say !"

"Back, [ say "
The silvered foam of the sea was
splashing in rhythmic cadence on the
white sand of the beach, while here and
there feck of wavering light from the
signal buoy on Sardine shoals-that
dreaded spot beneath whose treacherous
waves SO many goodly ships freighted
with precious burdens from far Cathay

brought into bold relief against the
western sky Girode McClosky's off foot
as she stood by Bertrarn Perkins side
that soft June evening.
"You do not love me-" said the girl,
speaking slowly, "or you could not
speak SO cruelty. On this beautiful
night, when the hills are suffused with
amber haze, through which the stars
glow and throb in silent splendor, we
should think of naught but love-pure,
passionless love, that will bind our
hearts together in chain whose every
link shall be kiss, whose every fold a
sweet caress.
For an instant the man did not reply.
Then the girl stretched forth to him her
bare white arms that glistened like
marble in the glowing dusk, but he
needed them not.
"Will you not speak to me, sweet.
hearth" she said, an infinite pathos in
the words.
No answer came. Again the out,
stretched arms pleaded mutely and with
pitiful eloquence for the JOY that was
never to be. Looking at her with 6
naughty, almost Vice President Davis
expression on his face, Bertram again
said
"Back, sayl"
With a aespairipg gleam IN her hand
some eyes Girofe turned away and be-
gan to sob as if her corset would break
"God help me-" she said, in despairine
accents, L cannot back
"Why not ?" asked Bertram.
Because" was the reply in tear
stained tones, "my polonaise is too eter-

PLANT NATURE.

Why does the radicle of a plant grow
downward and tie plumule grow up
ward? Ii you wish to experiment on
this matter, we will tell you a very easy
way to make trial. Make small
earth, ball Of damp soil, about the size
OF base ball ; have it sufficiently wet SO
that it will not fall apart. Now take a
string and saw the ball into two hemi-
spheres. Now take some radish seeds
any other seeds will do-place with a
little pressure your seeds around in a
circle on the surface of the flat portion
OF your hemisphere, with the foramen of
each seed pointing toward the center.
Now take the other half of the ball and
press it with the other, making your
sphere again. Take piece of mosquito
netting and tie it around the globe, to
keep it in its shape.
Now reverse the natural order Of light.
heat and moisture by hanging up the
ball over the window, and by keeping the
upper side the wetter. Hang it so the
seam, made by cutting the ball in two,
will be vertical. In four or five DAYS
open the ball, and you will see roots
going down and stems up. After they
get out of the ground the roots keep
close to the ground, and the leaves and
stem grow toward the light. Dakota

THE NEWSPAPER.

F. K. Hunt. in his I" Fourth Estate"
remarks The moral of the history of
the press seems to be that when any
large proportion OF people have been
taught to read, and when upon this pos
session Of the tools of knowledge, there
has grown up habit of perusing pub
lie prints, the state is virtually power
less if it attempts to check the press.
James H.. in old times, and Charles
Y. and Louis Philippe more recently,
tried to trample down the newspapers,
and everybody knows how the attempt
resulted. The prevalence or scarcity of
newspapers in country affords sort of
index to its social state. Where jour
nails are numerous, the people have
power, intelligence and wealth where
journals are few, the many are in reality
mere slaves. In the United States every
village has its newspaper. In England
we know how influential for good the
papers are, while in France they have,
perhaps. still greater power. Turn to
Russia, where newspapers are compare
lively unknown, and we see the people
sold with the earth they are compelled
to till. Austria, Italy and Spain occupy
positions between the extremes, the rule
holding good in all, tina in proportion
to the press is4the freedom and PROSPER
ity of the people.

YALE COLLEGE LOGIC.

"The child is father to the man. :"
Hence the child would be paternal
grandfather to the mans child. But
the later child, being also father to the
man, would be, therefore, his own pater.
nal grandfather. Hence this latter
child would have two paternal
grandfathers, both children, of whom he
himself was one. Now, this rule being
universal, the other child would be like
wise his own grandfather, and hence
great-great-gradfather to the before
mentioned child. But these two children
were each father to the man, a state of
affairs which can be accounted for only
ON the ground that one of them was a
step father. That is, they both mar
ried the same wife. It is presumable
that the one who was great-great-grand-
father of the other married her first. for
If not, the other would have married one
of his direct female ancestors before she
was married. This borders on the i'm.
probable. 1t is, then, only left to as
sumo that the child married his great
great-grandmother. This brings US to a
conclusion far more startling than that
of Mr.. Wordsworth, viz: The child is
step-great-great grandfather to himself.
So was it when the world began If so,
this is convincing argument on the
side of evolutlon.-YaIeR Record.

NO POCKETS 1T HEST POINT.

There are no pockets in the trousers
of the West Point cadets, nor in their
coats either. The cadets wear no vests.
and are trained to do without pockets.
They are left free to choose between
putting their handkerchiefsi in their caps
or breasts. The authorities say they
must not use tobacco. They are not
allowed to carry money, and the ores
who govern them do not see what need
they have for pockets. When the
s'plebs" first arrive, they swagger
around, with their hands in their pock-
cts, and, in fact, do not seem to know
where else to put them. One of the

TIE EUNUCH.

The eunuch is great parsonage in the
harem or palace. His power is Almost
absolute. There is no limit to his con-
troll. The chief eunuch in a palace is
styled Kislar Agaci; he is black, and
takes the position of the second man Of
the empire, ranking with the Grand
Vizier. He is Captain Of the girls. Ii
they are insubordinate he does not
mince matters, but chastises them with
rods on the bare body. Should the mat
ter, however, be very serious one, they
are disposed of. These black eunuchs
are hideous, ungainly fellows, generally
with short necks and long legs they are
very naughty and overbearing in their de-
meanor, and, when escorting their charges
on excursions, slash about with their
"courbtach, or whip, indiscriminately,
to clear the way for the pets of the
Padishah. They enjoy princely salaries.
and the large fortunes amassed by them
result mainly from backsheesh screwed
out of the inmates Of the harem. It is
from this class of Orientals that the
mutes are selected. Mutes are still en-
ployed by the Sultan in his palaces as
guards and attendants, and especially
are their negative, services availed of at
the Porte, where all official business and
diplomatic interviews are carried on.
The mutes Eve are not talking of the
&c Arabian Nights and their fanciful
stories, but in sober earnest as to what
is happening at the present hour) are
selected from the eunuchs, and when
very young have their tongues cut out,
and every means devised to keep them
In state of ignorance, as they are not
even taught to read and write. The
eunuchs are also turned to further ac-
count. When Grand Vizier is to be de-
posed, or some other person in high Office
to be dismissed, such matters are gen
orally carried through with expedition.
The officer whose duty it is to undertake
this important mission is termed "Black
Ears" 1t is for him only tc notify the
Grand Vizier that his power is at an end.
He appears suddenly, always at mid
night, and without any kind OF warning.
He receives for this errand large
amount of backsheesh. In former davs
it was his privilege and duty to strangle
then and there the Grand Vizier or other
high functionary, whoever he might be.
But things are more mercifully managed
now, and the victim is smuggled, On
board the Sultan's steam yacht, the
Izzedin. to some distant point in Arabia
or Asia Minor. and most probably the
ministerial career is terminated by the
simple process of administering a cup of
"Mocha. ."-London Society.
