A wELL-KNowN place of physical re-
freshment in Concord, n. H., is pre-
sided over by John Adams, man of
such tender sensibilities that when, the
other night, just as he was shutting up
shop, he discovered q half-frozen owl
on the doorstep. he took the bird in
and made it comfortable. When he re-
tired for tho night he left the owl
perched upon the safe, to which one of
its legs was fastened with stout cord,
and blinking with extreme gratitude
and devotion. As soon as he had gone
the owl bit the cord in two, devoured
every fragment of food on well-stocked
lunch counter, sampled every kind of
liquor in the saloon. broke all the
bottles and decanters within reach, and
in the morning when the doors We're
opened was standing solemnly behind
tho bar ready for business.

Chinese EtiUuette.

The Chinese as a nation excel all
others in the art of politeness, at least
so far rs a rigid adherence to outward
forms may go. The French, who are
supposed TO have reduced etiquette to a
science, must yield the palm to these
Orientals.
Tho observance of these forms OF
politeness is practically universal. The
cart-drivers on the street, and the
ragged, dirty beggars by the roadside,
are expected to comply with them. To
fail in them in any degree toward
another is an offense only less serious
than would be committed in accusing
him of similar failure toward you
You may call Chinese Liar, and
chances are that no will accept it as
well-deserved compliment, but say that
he is no gentleman-1oes not under
stand etiquette you will have o
serious quarrel upon your hands at
once.
Among equals in China il is gross
breach of politeness TO call person by
his given name. To small extent that
rule holds good with us, but here it is
so rigid that a Chinese weuld be very
angry if his own brother called him by
his given name. He must either say
"my venerable elder brother or my
venerable younger brother" according
rs the person referred to is older or
younger than himself.
They have curious way of distin-
gushing the various sons in family by
numbers. Thus Mr.. Jones' oldest son
would be big JONES' his second,
Jones number q" his third. Jones
number B." and so on. Persons OF
equal rank, outside the family, must
address these sons as Venerable Big
Jones, Venerable Jones Number q"
and so on.-Yottth's Companion.

A TWENTY-FIVE pound tomcat, long
and favorably known on Washington
street wharf, San Francisco, where he
was born, reared and ensconced in the
affections of his owner, deliberately
committed suicide on Jan. 3 by laying
his head upon the pavement and hold
ing it there until an express wagon had
rolled over it. A number of spectators
are willing to swear that the act was
prearranged and intentional, and
several persons now remember that the
cat had shown previous symptoms of
insanity. He had, moreover, under
taken to commit suicide several times
before in similar way but lost courage
at the last moment and fled from the
approaching wheels.

For the week ending Jan. 20, 1888,
the reports indicate that diphtheria, cry
sipelas, measles, diarrhea, typhoid
fever bronchitis, influenza, pneumonia
and tonsilitis decreased in area of prev
alence. There was no marked increase
in any disease reported.
At the State Capitol the prevailing
winds, during the week ending Jan. 20,
were southwest, and, compared with
the preceding week, the temperature
was slightly higher. the absolute and
relative humidity slightly more. and
the day and night ozone slightly less.
Including reports by regular observ-
ers and by others, diphtheria was re-
ported present during the week ending
Jan. 20, and since, at nineteen places,
scarlet fever at twenty-one places and
measles at ten places. Smallpox was
reported at Royalton, Berrien county
(three cases), Jan. II.
Since the close of the week, for which
this is bulletin, there has been re-
markably low temperature and con-
siderable increase in ozone. Judging
from past experience, we may predict a
probable increase in influenza, which
disease has sometimes preceded cere-
bro-spinal meningitis.

THE learned pundits of Boston are
Mortified that Gov. Butler should have
stated in public address that Andrew
Jackson was born in Ireland. Com
menting on this statement, the Boston
Journal says: "There used to be some
such talk as this on the stump many
years ago, but all authentic biogra-
pixies agree in the statment that Jackson
was native-born American. The place
of his birth was the Waxhaw Settle
ment, S. c., March Is, 1867. His par
ents, who were Scotch-Irish, came
from Carrickfergus, Ireland, and settled
on Twelve Mile creek, branch of the
Catawba river, N c., in the year 1765,
two years before their distinguished son
saw the light

Mrs. BELvA LOCKWOOD, the lawyer,
who lives in Washington, and rides the
tricycle., gets this pen portrait in the
Cleveland Leader: "She is q tall, we'll
formed woman, with regular features,
countenance of rudy character, the
effect of which is heightened by a keen
dark eve, and hair of iron gray. She
dresses generally in clothing of Il dark
hue. While always ut ease wherever
she may be, Mrs. Lockwood is modest
and womanly in her demeanor. She
does what few other women do, to be
sure, in riding around the city on n
tricycle., but this she does, not TO appear
unlike other people, as does our ele-
giant Attorney General, but because
she is thereby enabled to be more ex-
peditious in her journeyings about the
city. 1t is almost as useful as horse
and buggy, costs nothing for feed or
care, and is certainly an aid to her in
getting about the city to attend to her
quite fiourishing legal business"

The white necktie has been aban-
.doned for evening dress in Eastern
cities, from necessity, in fact, as house
servants are dressed so much like the
guests as to cause embarrassment and
confusion. At recent party in New
York handsome waiter was discovered
flirting with lady who supposed him
to be some guest to whom she had
been introduced, and at another party
one of the gentlemen guests walked
up to another who was standing in the
dressing-room and asked care you q
waiter?" "No, sir! are you?" was the
indignant reply.

African descent), which numbers II, 900.

there are more to follow. During the week

THAT WAS q brave fellow-the COM
mander of the City of Brussels. He
did not leave his ship until all the pas
sengers were in the life-boats and the
boat had sunk mp to the bridge. A
kindred hero was Capt. Herndon, the
father-in-law of President Arthur, who
stood by his ship, the Central America,
under the same circumstances. After
every Iife-boat had been filled with his
passengers and he found there was no
room fer him, he took up his position
on the wheel-house, and as the boat
sank into the waters he, with uncovered
head and prayer upon his lips, met

greatest pleasure at receiving his
friends. Though his sight Is so dimmed

The divorce statistics Of Maine for
the past five years give an unpleasant
picture of home-life in that State.
There have been about 2,400 divorces
decreed during the period in question,
and thus nearly 5,000persons have been
released from the bonds which were as
sumed with ut least nominal solemnity.
The ratio is probably one divorce to
ten marriages in Maine. The ratio in
Massachusetts in 1879 was one to TWEEN
ty-one.

What II. w. Beecher Does Not Wish to
Hear.

Tell me not of the medieval terrors;
tell me not of those hells that are
created of Goals, of sulphur, of fiery
flames, of all gorgons dire, and of all
savagcry, of all tompestuous and de-
bauched negotiations; they are bar
barous; they are hideous; but they have
no moral power. They have no relation
to the exaltation of men above tho flesh
into the spirit life.
