The wills remained untouched; but
soon felt myself obliged to act, but
with my might took each large and
small advantage of the laws delay,
feeling that day by day she grew little
from her sorrow and nearer to my wait
ing heart. Little she knew of worldly
care; soft, white lamb upon the sleety
mountain was not more helpless than
was she.
Too often did the strong temptation
to destroy the will shake me in its
giant grasp; too many times did take
it from its hlding-place in binding
anger; scarce could my longing fingers
cling to the hard line of duty, restrained
by it from tearing into shreds the hated
roll. Quickly 1 sought for information
of the elder line, and found il centred
in the persons of two old, helpless wo-

went out in dull, gray ashes; for sorely

CALLED HOME.

She has passed away,
Like gentle breath,
Her eyes are closed with the sleep of death
The leaves on the trees will hutter and fall
And the drifting SHOWS will cover all,
But she will peacefully, calmly rest,
Forever happy
By angels blest
Just in the spring
OF womanhood,
Tender and loving, and wise and good,
All too good for the sinful earth
Only the angels knew her worth,
So 'h"v called her unto til,
Decking her brow
h a diadem.
Letter to smile
When such a life
Gives up the battle of earthly strife,
Better to know that her tasks are done,
Trials ended and glory won;
Tears are VAIN, when soul so bright
Wings its way
To the gates of light.

Where and How We Hamcmber.

If, now, we take models of our
brains, and on the first mark out the
location of the various areas connected
with the various sensory organs rs de-
termined by the anatomical connection
of the white nerve-threads; on the Sec
ond mark out the location Of the var
ious areas which Psychologists have
shown to govern various sensory or
gans; on the third mark out the various
areas whose disease produces disturb
ance of action in the various sensory
organs, and loss of memory of per-
ceptions by those organs; and on the
fourth mark out the various areas
which wither after disease of the var
ious sensory organs-we shall find that
lpon all four brains the areas belong
ing to any one organ coincide. We
may therefore conclude that each lass
of sensations and each class of MEM
ories has its own definite area of the
gray matter on the surface of the brain.
Memories of objects seen are located
in the posterior part in the occipital
region. Memories of sounds heard
are located in the lower lateral part in
the temporal region. Memories of mo-
tions in the limbs, and of touch in those
limbs, are located side by side in the
central lateral region. Memories of
speech are located il the frontal region.
1t is therefore mistake to speak of
memory as single faculty of the
mind. 1t is really an assemblage of
distinct memories which we possess,
each kind of memory being as different
from the others both in its nature and
in its location as are the different or
gans of sense through which the origi-
nal perception came.

Imitation Pc arlS.

"You would hardly think" said q
dealer in fancy goods. holding up a
string of glass beads as big as cherry
made in imitation of pearls, ''that to
get the pearl tint on each ore of those
little globes the lives of at least fifteen
beautiful fish had to be sacrificed,
would you?, But they do, though, and
although they are made in Venice, and
that string represents a catch of nearly
five hundred fish, and the exhaustion
of a good many cubic inches of glass
blowers breath, l can sell it to you for
a quarter and make fair profit.
They've been turning out beads
like these in Venice ever since 1856.
There is fish in the Adriatic they call
the bleak fish, but why bleak / can't
say. There is nothing bleak about its
appearance. 1t is graceful fish, with
glittering armor of silver scales.
They are more prolific and swarm in
larger schools than the herring. One
day in 1856 resident of Venice, Sal
vator Joaquin by name, placed several
of these fish in a small aquarium to OBJ
serve their habits. After they had
been confined in the aquarium for some

a pearly hne. Believing that this was
communicated by the scales of the
bleak fish, Joaquin tried some expert
ments with them. He found that water
could be so densely charged with the
tint from these scales that glass on
being dipped in it and then allowed to
dry had every appearance of a pearl
He coated glass beads with the liquid,
and they were readily taken for large
pearls. The coating would not resist
much friction, however, and soon rub
bed off the surface. Finding that q
great sale could be had for beads made
in imitation of pearls if the coating
could be made permanent, Joaquin
conceived the idea of having the globes
blown hollow and then fixing the fish
scale liquid to the inner surface. This
was a success from the start, and the
glass pearl bead business got its first
boom. 1t requires the scales of four
thousand bleak fish to make half pint
of the pearl liquid. They are simply
removed from the fish, which are as
cheap as mossbunkers. and soaked in
tepid water. Nowadays very small
quantity of sal ammonia and isin glass is
added to the liquid. 1t is introduced
inside the bead by small tube, and
when it is dry, a coating of wax is run
over it. Fortunately for the fish. the
trade in these beads, pretty and cheap
as they are. is not alarmingly large"

Baked and Broiied Oysters.

In answer to correspondent. the
New York Caterer publishes the follow
ing recipes, aprOpos of the opening .lf
the oyster season.;
Baked oysters: Crate some day-ol 1
Vienna bread into fine crumbs and sea-
son them with salt, white pepper and a
little grated nutmeg. Drain the oys-
ters and dry them between the folds of
a cloth, being careful not to press them.
Now dip them into beaten egg and roll
them in the seasoned crumbs until well
covered. Then place them in their
lower shells with piece of butter on
the top of each oyster and bake for d
few minutes in a hot oven. Arrange
them, still in their shells, on plate,
and, before sending to table, squeeze
over them little of the juice of a
lemon.
To broil oysters in their shells; After
opening the oysters let them remain in
the deep shell with their juice. placing
a small piece of butter upon the top of
each and seasoning them with little
salt and cayenne pepper. Have a
good, clear fire; place the shells on a
gridiron. squeeze a little lemon Juice
over the oysters. and broil until done.
Two or three minutes will suffice to
cook them.

Twins For the Nonce,

AS Third avenue street-car was
bowling rapidly uptown yesterday af-
ternoon corpulent woman stood at
Fourteenth street with a baby under
one arm, while she waved parasol
frantically in the air with the other.
The conductor saw her signal, the car
was stopped, and the woman, after
gathering herself together with much
difficulty, succeeded in getting on the
platform and diving into seat. With
her was a little girl who carried an
other baby, and a third little girl VINO
took care Of herself. They stretched
out over four seats when they got set
tied. The matron then composedly
handed the conductor 10 cents for
fare.
''Ah! um! excuse me! said that Off
eiai. "but is the little girl under four
yearsp"
Yes" said the matron sharply,
''she will be 4 in August"
"Ah, said the conductor doubtfully;
.but have you three children under
four?''
"Yes. have" was the swapping re-
ply. 'sThese two are twins.
''Oh! and all the passengers who
were seated smiled broadly, and those
who were jerked backward and for
ward as they stood up swinging by the
straps glared savagely at the composed
matron and her young brood. who had
such an undiSturbed monopoly with an
investment of so little capital.
''How's that for high?n said the con-
ductor. That's a new dodge, Wo-
men on this line have the biggest four
year old children ever saw, and those
they don't own they say th9y have the
guardianship of. But this twin racket
is something new. Women are very

The Best Tobacco Pipe.

The white earthen pipe, porus and
permeabie to liquids, is put first be-
cause it is good absorber of nicotine;
the metallic pipe is put last, because it
allows all the noXious products formed
during the combustion of the tobacco
to reach the mouth of the smoker The
meerschaum, which Immediately fol-
lows the clay pipe, deserves its place
only on condition that it is not too old.
If it is seasoned it is as bad as wood
en- or porcelain pipe. The seasoning,
of which poets have sung, may be full
of charms to the amateur; to the hy-
gienist it simply indicates that the
pipe has had Its day, and is now satu-
rated with tobacco juice, and that it
must be replaced by another one, or
be passed through the fire to purify it,
as is done in the cofee-houses of Hol-
land. Every old pipe, Drowned with
long use, leaves on the lips and tongue
an acrid and strong-smelling liquid,
which irritates the tissues and corrodes
the mucous secretions. When it has
reached this condition the finest meer-
sctaum is no better than the meanest
scorch-throat. Science Month";

The LotoS Flower.

Oh. In what lonely valley, dimly seen
Through dusky aisles OF immemorial treeA
Or on what lovely island, eouched serene
in azure zones of unfreQuented eeas,
Blossoms the LotOs, fabled flower or easef
For none have found it in the city street,
Among the wicked weeds tn at ran kle there,
The matted sins that snare unwary feet,
The poison growth Of SANDER, shame and
care,
Tho hemlock leaves Of anguish and despair.
Even in the fair, benignant face of heaven,
On sunny plain or solitary hill,
At noon or night, some drop of bitter leaven,
Some sinister surmise, some haunting Ill,
Taints the clear cup Of natures quiet still.
1t is not bought with wealth, nor bribed by
power;
The golden garnerings of insatiate gain
Win not its balm for one Oblivious hour;
And stricken kings meath canopies of pain,
Clasp burning palms and pray for it in
vain.
And oh, not in loves stormy realm ii grows
Love, whose inviolable trust denies
To aching hearts and watching eyes repOse;
Love that is sorrow in divine disguise,
Whose mission and reward ere sacrifice.
Sweeter than love. or hope, or flames false
charm,
Honors or gold or fortunes vain caprice!
No brow has worn the coronal of calm,
No toil-worn slave of time has earned re-
This side the grave; the dead alone find
peace.
