SONGS NEVER SUNG.

"How does that verse run? Something like
this, isn't it?
There are who touch the magic string,
And noisy fame is proud to win them;
Alas! for those who never sing,
But die with all their music In them.'"
''Yes, that's beautiful, pathetic and true"
said your representative. 1.-THE poet alludes 10
people who are somehow suppressed, and never
get their full allowance of joy and air. Which
reminds me OF letter shown me the other day
by HIsCOx * Co., of New York, signed by Mr..
Il. @. Williams, Of Chapman, Snyder x Co.,
Pa, a prominent business man of that place.
He writes:

years, and had terrible attack in December
and January, 1882. l hardly know what

of any one who has the asthma tell him in my
name that PARKER's Tonic will cure it-even
after forty years" There was man who es-
capped the fate Of those whom the poet laments.
This preparation, which has heretofore been
known as PARKER'S GINGER Tonic, will here
after be advertised and sold under the name of
PARKER'S Tonic. Inasmuch as ginger is really
an unimpOrtant ingredient, and unprincipled
dealers are constantly deceiving their customers
by substituting inferior preparations under the
name OF ginger, we drop the misleading word.
There is no change, however, in the prepara-
ton itself, and all bottles remaining in the
hands Of dealers, wrapped under the name Of
PARKER'S GINGER Tonic contain the genuine
medicine il the facsimile signature of HISCOX IL

Taking Tea with tho Jupaneye,

The great pecularity of this tea-drink-
ing ceremony consists in the exactness
with which everything is done. A
spoon, cup, or whatever is handled, has
to be taken hold of in particular way,
set down in a peculiar place and touched
in particular part, and everything is
done with the same strange precision.
What [ saw was part of the ceremony
Of thin tea-drinking,' and part of the
ceremony Of thick tea-drinking,' but
the whole is simply a lesson in those
laws Of politeness which were formerly
so rigidly exacted in every mansion and
which are still largely kept up in the
houses of the old aristocracy. Origi-
nally, the ceremony was of secret
character, and no servant entered the
house in which it, took place--the mas
ter ,kindling the fire, bqiling the water,
making the tea, allt;,sS Yin sshort, doing
everything for the guests but in later
years 1T has become q mere ceremony
OF an extremely fashionable character.
One OF two things III this service struck
me as especially strange. Thus, botl
host and guests knelt from the time
they entered the building till the time
they left it; and even when the master
had to go to the little back room tc
fetch water, cups or whatever else he
might require, he shuflled on his knees
to the slide which served as door, and
then, having opened it, shuflled through
the opening till he was well on the other
side, when he rose to his feet; but this
he must not do while in the presence OF
his guests. The chief guest. moreover
| is the spokesman for the company, and
no word is uttered save by the CHIEF
guest or the host during tho service, be
it ever so long. The chief guest also
demands everything-thus he asks fo,
tea and refreshments, but the particular
moment at which each request has tC
be made is arranged by the code of eti
quette. At opportune moments the
chief guest also asks if he may look at
the tea caddy, spoon, bowl or tho
teapot. Receiving the necessary per.
mission, he shufllcS on his knees to the
place where the object demanded is
takesi it, bows his forehead to the ground
then rising, touches his forehead witt
the object received, and begins to ex-
anime it. Looking at the teapot ht
asks if it is silver; then who made it
then opening it and smelling the tea
what tea costs per pound; after whicl
inquiries he passes it to the next guest
and makes remark to the host whicl
should, if possible, be at the same time
a compliment and a pun. After eacl
of the guests has duly inspected the Oh
ject, the chief guest shufles agail
across the floor, and returns it to it.
place. Object after object is brought
examined and returned in the same
manner.

Grandma's Knitting-Nork.

| GREATNESS swapping machine stop to
teach Drlght-eyed urchinito knit a
saSEESiaignC row on a pair of chicken quilts?
!ThS WIN leg: -ol<lf hands, how softly
they patted the cheeks of tho romping
grandchild, not half so soft in their
childish curves as the touch of grand
mas hands. The stockings grandma
knit; how much love went into every
stitch; how many prayers were wrought
into every round. Somewhere l once
read about a nun who bent over her
needle work, and as oft as a tear fell
from her eyes upon the snowy fabric
she wrought about it and worked it i'll
with her deft needle, until at last the
strange design wrought out a touching
story OF her loneliness and sorrow.
And II we could read all the dreams
and thoughts and prayers that grand
ma wrought with those patient needles
we would wear the stockings she knit
next to our heart rather than on our
feet. For here is dream of John, and
there is Il tear for Chris Robbie, and
here is plan for viii, and here comes
creeping in a quivering strain from
some old, old hymn that is hallowed to
us not because her lips blessed it so
often; see now y prayer Quiyercd all
along this round; here the stocking was
laid down while the old hands turned
over the leaves of the Bible that seemed
never to be out of her lap; here the old
eyes looked out across the pasture and
the moving lot down to the wooded
hills where the birds are answering
winds; here the old eyes slept for a few
minutes, and here is a knot. All, yes,
Philie and Annie are home this week,
and the house is full Of their children.
There will be many more knots 'n the
yarn before the stocking is finished.
Who is the boy whose fate it is to hold
on his extended hands the Skein Of yarn
while grandma winds it off after the
romping youngsters who taunt him with
shrieks OF laughter as they desert him.
But never mind, grandma cOnfronts
him with splendid stories Of Uncle
Docs pranks when he was boy and
went to school at Carmichaeltown,
until the boy wishes the skein was five
miles long. And then he is rewarded
by great big cooky, sweeter than
honey, because he was such u good
boy. The only thing that took the
edge Off this reward was that all the
other children got just as big cookies
as he did, because somehow grandma's
rewards for the good boy and girl
managed to include all the other boys
and girls. TO grandma, all children
were good; some children were better
than others, but there were no bad
children. "A thousand blessings, a
thousand times told, OH the dear old
face and the silver hair that crowned
the placid brow; OIL the wrinkled hands
and the work they wrought; on the dear
lips and blessed old hymns they sung
on the dear old book that lay in hel
lap, and the life that drew 50 much OF
love and faith and help from its pages.

Cheap Eating In Washington.

The dairy opposite the Treasury IS a
great resort, where may be seen not only
many bureau officers and men of con-
siderable position in the government ser
vice, but great many others who do
not want a cheap luncheon, but light
one, and know that if they once settle
into a restaurant chair the result will bc
spOild appetite by dinner time. Sec
rotary Chandler is one of the frequcnt
visitors, and often may be seen standing
in a crowd Of Treasury clerks, drinking
his mug of milk and munching his two
cent biscuit-that is it is two cents IL he
takes buttered biscuit and only one
cent il it is unbuttercd. 1t will be seen
by slight intellectual effort that the
salary Of Cabinet officer for one year
would purchase 100000 unbuttercd bis
cults. The Secrctary's future may be
regarded, therefore, as rcasona! Sc
cure. If the Secretary takes mug of
milk and two unbuttercd biscuits the
total cost Of his luncheon is the magnili-
cent sum of seven cents; two buttcrcd
biscuits will raise it to nine cents, and if
he should take piece Of pie--which he
probably would not do-as he comes
from New England, where pe-making
is a religion and not sordid pursuit.
the cost will reach fourteen ccnts. This
is regarded, however, as extravaganza
only to be ejustilled in a Cabinet officer.
