How Beck Rests His Mind.
[From a Washington Letter. ]

FTUUE q VuSItIlIytOI1
Senator Beck has led the discussion on the
tariff question day after day. AT times the
Senate has become weary.
Senator Frye of Maine, or some other imper-
tinent youngster, remarked to Frisbie Hoar
that he wondered how Beck could bear the
mental strain of such constant debate.
"Oh," said Hoar, wiping his spectacles,
Beck always rests his mind while talking"

Small Farms.

Texas has shown many signs OF an
intention to lead the southern states
in enterprise: but the last report from
there is the most fattering---it is
that number of owners of large es-
tates have determined to cut up plant
atations into small farms and sell
them on easy terms to actual settlers.
Small farms means high farming and
populous, intelligent, stable, well to do
communities. Many small farms in
New York and New Jersey yield great
er profits than an equal number OF
over large plantations at the south,
for the simple reason that on each
one the labor is done mostly by the
owner, and done thoroughly. There
are parts Of the south where, for eli
mate and sanitary reasons, it would
be useless to ask white farmers to
settle; but much of the agricultural
portion of Texas, like the higher
grounds of other states, is as healthy
as any part of the north, and offers
to farmers the superior inducements
of shorter winters, greater variety OF
crops, and better soil than they can
find at the north. The Texas expert
ment if managed with ordinary ability
and honesty, will benefit every one
concerned, and the remainder of the
south will do well to keep an eye on
it.-RuraI Record.

are standing in the doorway, looking
obi so worried. The young man
swings the gate open.
"Father!" he falters.
"Oh, dear mamma" cries Trotty'
Then Trotty thinks that every one
has gone crazy, for Miss Carlotta
comes from the parlor, papa comes
from the library, and in a moment
there is such laughing and crying
both together, thatpoor Trotty is quite
bewildered. By-and-by she gathers
from what is going on, that she has
really and truly found her uncle
Fred, and brought him home safely
to grandpapa, who is now holding
him by the hand as if he never meant
to lose sight of him again.
"Dsar little puss, says Uncle Fred;
eff it had not been for her l should
not have found you for long time;
you have moved so far from the old

"She's perfect little angel" says
mamma, STOPPING to kiss her. "Do

unfortunate Young man, unfortunate in

these characteristics were transmitted to

indulgence, it makes no difference, the re-
suit is the same. We only know they
