MY BIRTHDAY.

Yes, this is my birthday. Another mile
stone in the journey of life has been
passed, and now that the evening shades
have gathered and all is hushed IN silence,
pen few scattering thoughts. How
swiftly time fies how rapid our voyage
down the tide that, like the mighty river,
is ever onward in its course. The scenes
oc childhood pass before me. Happy
days! Too happy to last, and can be
ours but once. A dear father and mother,
who anticipated our every wish Loving
brothers and sisters, ready to share our
ioys and childish SORROWS, our companions
at all times, ard with whom the years
of childhood passed all too soon.
School days neZt appear, and upon
these we can look with but little less
pleasure. Each teacher from whom we
received instruction now stand before me,
their forms, their features indellibly en-
graved on memory's page. To say We re-
member them, is not alive love them
For all their lessons of instruction, for
bearance and kindness, with childish
waywardness, we never can repay them,
Even now, many lessons, taught BY them
in the school.room, are as fresh In mem
ory as though it was yesterday ! was a
school girl. Years 60 by. To US, who
are now Just budding into womanhood,
time moves On leaden wings, and we
think year, aye, the annual return OF
this day, long time coming. We antic-
ipate rest when released from school,
when we can lay our books aside and en-
ter a new scene in life's great drama.
Seemingly, the years get shorter, and ere
we are aware, we have passed our major
ity; and childhood, school deys and maid
enhood are passed, and average wreath
encircles our brow, the marriage bells
chimes sweetly in our ears.
Now, the tender ties of home muet Do
severed and the fearful farewells spoken.
That home sndeared to us by thousand
memories, is ours no longer and know
ing this, each object becomes douDly
dear. The farewells are hurriedly spoken,
and, with mingled feelings Of JOY and sad,
ness we turn from this cur childhood
i
home, to fnd home ard friends beyond

await US at every turn in life; but mem
ory, ever true to herself, often turns to
the happy past. The cares CT LIE, lns Nh

brings the intelligence that mother is
dead. The parting scene was denied US,
and far, far away, we must sorrow alone
for her who was our dearest earthly

severed, while the golden chain that
bound US to the Other shore $50 the home

Paris Cor. San Francisco Chronicle
Another ''delicacy" in this country is the
escargots, or snails. For my part, l don't
like them, and after h.ving once screwed my
courage to the tasting point / have ever since
been wondering where was the pleasure of
chewing at a little piece of gristle that bore a
close resemblance to boiled sole-leather.
However, the French consider the snail as
an edible mollusk, and the nasty, Shiny,
crawling creatures are sold on the street
corners just the same as oysters and at
about the same prices. They are served up
in their shells, into which Is stuffed a COM
pound Of butter, parsley, and sometimes
garlic, and you are supplied with a sort of
picker, with which to extract them. The finest
come from Burgundy, but Of late years a
number of departments have turned their at
tention TO the breeding and fattening of
snafls for the Paris market; now it is the
department OF Ander that ships the greatest
quantity. Toward the end of summer the
escargots are collected into little Enclosures,
arranged in the corners Of the fields and gar
dens, the spot selected being cold, damp and
shady. In this corner all sorts of aromatic
plants are cultivated, and it is frequently Wis
listed to see that the snails do not stray too far
away. Toward the end of autumn dry moss
and leaves are scattered in the i~nclosure, and
when the snails have built up the opening of
their shells and gone to sleep for the winter
they are gathered into boxes and shipped to
market.

The Habit OF Hurry.

lEonuon Dally NewSJ
The whole of modern life, whether In the
centres Of pleasure or the centres of business,
is dominated by the desire to do too much,
and the consequent necessity of doing 1t with
precipitation. 1t is a horrible habit-a detri-
mental habit; we had almost said a vulgar
habit The whole world is in a conspiracy to
double, to treble the pace. And what is
gained by iti Loss of temper, deterioration
OF manners, injury to digestion, increase of
nervous disesses-these are the natural and
inevitable results of that high pressure to
which we nearly all expose ourselves and
subject each other. Who is made better by
it, who wiser, who even ricberf Everything
is relative in this world; and II everybody
gallops nobody is better of than II every
body walked But who will consent to alter
i'll 1t would require a universal consensus
and this is not attainable.
