That la de-da youth, Oscar Wilde
says the average American is narrow
minded and ignorant "a magnificent
liar, resembling an Englishman in
all his bad points, bat none of his
good ones-having no respect and
utterly wanting in veneration. 1.-The
American newspapers said Oscar,
were full of news, written with a
minimum amount of brains and in
good English, but put together with
out regard to truth or decency. They
(the newspapers. were stamped with
incompetence" The gentle youth
owns that the bunko mon cleaned
him out of $1,000, which perhaps, has
somewhat soured his aesthetic mind.

THE NIGHT-AIR SUPERSTITION.

Before we can hope to fight con
sumption with any chance of success,
we have to get rid of the night air
superstition. Like the dread of
cold water, raw fruit, etc, it is
founded on that mistrust of our in
stincts which we owe to our anti
| natural religion. 1t is probably the
most prolific single cause of impaired
health. even among the civilized ma
tons Of our enlightened age, though
its absurdity rivals the gressest'de-
lusions of the witchcraft era. The
subjectionfof holy reason to hearsays
could hardly go farther. beware of
the night wind; be sure and close
your windows after dark In other
words, beware of GODS free air; be
sure and infect your lurfgs with The
stagDant, azotized, and impure and
offensive atmosphere of your bed.
room. In other words, beware of the
rock spring; stick to sewerage.
Isl night air injurious? Is
there a single tenable pretext for
such an idea? Since the day. of crea-
ton that air has been breathed with
impunity by millions of different an
imals-tender, delicate creatures,
some of them-fawns, lambs and
young birds. The moist air of the
tropical forest is brcathed with i'm
punity by our next relatives, an
thropoid apostle same apes that
soon perish with consumption in the
close, though generally well-warmed
atmosphere of our northern menager
les. Thousands of soldiers, hunters
and lumbermen sleep every night in
tents and open sheds without the
least injurious consequences; men in
the last stage of consumption have
recovered by adopting semi savage
mode of life, and camping out doors
in all. but the stormiest nights. Is it
the draught you fear, or the contrast
of. temperature? Blacksmiths and
railroad conductors seem to thrive
under such influences. Draught?
Have you never seen boys skating in
the face of a snow storm at the rate
of fifteen miles an hourl They
counteract the effect of the cold air
by vigorous exercise. Is there no
other way Of Keeping warm? Does
the north wind damage the fine lady
sitting motionless in her sleigh. or
the pilot and helmsman of a. storm
tossed vessel? 1t cannot be the in
clemency of the open air. for, even in
sweltering summer nights, the sweet
south wind, blessed by all creatures
that draw the breath of life. brings
no relief to the victim of hydrophobia
There is no doubt that families who
have freed themselves from the curse
of that superstition can live out and
out healthier in the heart of great
city than its slaves on the ARREST
highland OF the southern Apennines.

THE TERROR OF FORT WORTH.

Several years ago, when Fort
Worth was a wild Texan town,
Dusenbery was an exotic there. He
was civilized and cut his hair, and
was despised by the other men. One
day dapper little Dusenbery sur
prised everybody 10y reforming. He
was in Galatians Retreat when there
entered four of the most ferocious-
looking rut1ians who had ever been
seen in Fort Worth. They came
with clauking spurs and fierce
boards. two revOlvers to each man
and large bowie-knife for lagni-
appe. and they sat down to a table
and called for whisky all around 4
tremor ran through the assembly
Fort NOrth's best citizens were Tor Il
moment staggered. But Dusen-
beYy never quailed. The strangers
elnptieG their glasses, called for
more and then, glancing malignant
ly around, they launched forth in flu
rious abuse of Texas and Texans.
their language being garnished with
that profusiOn and ornamcntatiOn of
profanity peculiar to the gnileless
cattle drover of those times. As they
ceased Duscnbery marched up to the
table at which the strangers sat His
flashing eyes. his heaving breast, his
five feet of towering form reduced
the spectators to speechlessness.
Even the strangers paused and
seemed impressed.
Gentlemen" said Dusenbery,
diving into his trousers and bring
ing up an ancient silver watch, you
have wounded the finest feelings of
my nature in YOUR remarks about
Texas, and you must retract them or
but never mind. | give you five
minutes TO retract five minutes to
secure your safe return to home and
friends. five minutes to avold a grave
upon the lonesome plain-tve min
utesw An awful silence fell upon
the crowd. The blood curdled in the
veins of every Fort WORKMAN present
What. had they been treating this
fire eating terror with scarcely
vailed contempt? Had they been
absolutely counting death for years ?
But Just then one Of the strangers
recovered his power of speech. and
said;
"Why, stranger, if you feel that
way about il, of course we'll cut it
short. We didn't mean it for you or
any of your friends, but was just talk
| ing on loose like" And with that
they all four got up and SUNK out,
their-six shooters Hopping feebly
against their hips, and their very
spurs looking dropped and weedy as
they went With the closing of the
door, Dusenbery's eye reeled in its
socket. The excitement which had
thus far held him up gave way and
he collapsed, a habby little heap
upon the floor. The assembled citi-
zens crowded around him. i. Z
Why, DOGGY, my boy, you took
us all by surprise. We never thought
you were a fighter"

couldn't have fired it, anyhow"
Great heavens, man! suppose

earth would you have done?"

down to his lips and whispered: I'D

A Dust Tribute.

A just tribute is paid to women in
the well-known play "Uuder the Gas
hight" and it is as true as gospel. 1t
Is worth preserving and runs in this
wise: "Let the woma, YOU look upon
be wise or vain, beautiful or homelv,
she has but one thing she can give or
refuse, and that is her heart. Her
beauty, her wit, she may sell YOU, but
her love is the treasure without money
and without price. She can only ask
IN return that when you look upon
her your eyes shall speak a mute de-
votlon; that when you address her
your voice shall be gentle and kind.
That you shall not despise her because
she cannot all at once understand your
vigorous thoughts and ambitious . ans,
tor when misfortune and evil have
defeated your greatest purpose-her
love remains to console YOU. You
look upon the tree of strength and
grandeur; do not despise the flowers
because their fragrance is all thcv
have to give. Remember love is the
only thing she can give.
