.Ennn.ese Customs.

The Japanese are very tolerant of Cd
dity in dress. Nothing in that line is
ever noticed, and we, in our rude star
ing at anything strange or in the mobs
which sometimes attack a poor China
man. are far more barbarous than they.
The nation has many little supe1sti-
lions similar to our own when we desire
to see the new loon W. our right
shoulder or refuse to sit thirteen at a
table, and an amusing list of these was
given. If a child be born when the
father is Al it will not be obedient. so
he pretends to give it away. He puts
the child out into the steeet, and a
friend, previously warned. comes and
takes it. Next day the friend calls, and
the father complains that he has no
child, is lonely, and asks his friend if he
has none to give him. The friend be-
thinks him of the one found in the
street yesterday and presents it to the
father. who is happy once more, az by
this means the omen has been averted.
There are some very complex supersti-
tions about certain numbers and the
days of the month in which these are
found: as those containing one, an I'M
| fortunate; four. bamboo shall not be
cut; seven, no strangers a be invited
home; eight, no marriages take place;
pine, good days to eat eggplant, and
September 8 is the day of days on which
to eat that article. Salt being consid-
cred purifying, it is a good omen to up
set it. The Japanese sleep with the
head to the north, and are buried vice
versa. When a child is left-handed it
is because its mother, In dressing it,
put its lefS hand first through the little
d~ress-sleeve. IL a man sneeze once, he
is being praised; twice, he is loved BY
some woman thrice. he is talked of.
and If four times, he is taking cold

Unite the Strings.

Said n of the most successful mer-
chants of Cleveland, O., to a lad who
was opening a parcel: young man
unite the strings; do not cut them"
It was the first remark that ne had
made to a new employee. 1t was the
first lesson the lad had to learn, and it
involved the principles of s..ccess or
failure in his business career. Point
ing to a well-dressed man behind the
counter, he said:
There is a man who always whips
out his scissors and cuts the strings of
the packages in three or four places.
He is a good salesman, but he will
never be anything more. | presume
he lives from hand to mouth, and is
more OF less in debt. The trouble with
him is that he vas 9 r taught to
save. ] told the boy just now to unite
the strings, not SO much for the value
of the string as to teach him that
everything Is TO be saved and nothing
wasted. IL the idea can be firmly i'm.

life that nothing was made to be

A~asssterated Food.

The system of selling bad champagne
under good corks and good labels, is
only one out of numerous frauds of the
sort of which the French public have
to complain. A Paris paper states that
thereis a lar e saleo artificial sardines.
made from coarse fish and disguise |
under a coating of gelatne and eolo.-
ing matter. Snails, one would thing
are too cheap to invite fraud, yet srti-
fetal snails are made out of the lights
of the calf, and with artistic seasoning
taste exactly like the genuine article.
Some of the American f~alsifications
are, if possible, still ingenious.
Every one has heard Of the fortunes
that have been made by the sale OF
wooden nutmegs and coffee berries.
The latest thing in this way which we
have seen noticed is the manufacture
of artificial eggs. The yelk is COM
pounded with phosphorus, the CLAIR
with albumen and the shell is made
with lime. AS far as taste and appear.
anee gothic imitation is said to be per
feet. They only differ in n respect
from the genuine eggs-they are of nc
use for Matching purposes.

A vie Conspiracy.

Jehiel Jasper strolled into the grocery
store of one of our back country vii
lagos, Saturday, and after standing
around with his back to the fire until
he was pelmeated with ~caloric, said:
"Well, l guess I'll read the news and
get along toward home. Squire Per-
kinses' papers come yet?" and he step
ped behind the ~post-ofices boxes, as
was his custom, to take it out and read
it.
Cant let you see it, Jehiel," said
the postmaster, government has IS
sued orders that any postmaster who
| allows a non-subscriber to read a sub
scriber's paper will lose his position"
mo! You don't tell me? Well. if
that amt a great idee? It's a put-up
iob-a conspiracy between these news
papers and the gov'ment to keep the
multitude in ignorance, 40 that they
| a domineer it over the community.
And they talk about this ere bein' a
free country. It's driftin' right into
| despotism jest as fast as it can. HoW's
a man to know what's goin' on if he
don't read. and now the gov'ment's set
tin down on all ideas of e%ddication, an
takin' away that privilege"
"Oh, not SO bad as that, Jehiel." said
the postmaster. The government
doesn't say anything against your sub
scribing for the paper yourself, sou
know"
"Subscribin' for it! What dye take
me for 2 Dye suppose that I'm goin'
to subscribe for a paper that I've read
for fourteen years right here by the
stove without costing me a cent? No

PEARLS OF

One of the sublimest things IN the
world is plain truth.
Death borders upon u BIRTH anu
our cradle stands in the grave.
Whose keepeth his mouth and MS
tongue keepeth his soul from trouble
We eve injure u own characters
50 much as when we attack those OF
others.
Satire often proceeds less from ILL
nature than from the L sire OF dis
playing wit. y
All the whetting il the world can
never set a razor edg on that which
| hath no steel in it.
Avoid circumloc,nion in language.
Words, like cannon balls, should 60
straight to their n Fk.
To look forwar5I prodtably we must
look back. Experience of the past is
the best light for the future.
Prosperity ties the human heart
with the deeJest probe, and draws
forth the hidden character.
A house kept to the end of display
is impossible t. all but a few women
and their success is dearly bought.
EverywhFe and always a man''
worth must be gagged to some extent
though only in part, by his domesticity
The man that works at home help

Ambitions.

sMAHH aN&N MH4EM sWN@f& go
Around our fir side one bleak night,
That mad more precious warmth and light,
With faces that were glad and bright,
Were many friends.
And each one strove as best he mig t,
TO put in words. but clear and right,
What seemed to him in reasons light
Oflife, it ends.
An aged man, past manhood's prime,
With head bowed low, meath hoary rhine.
The gih4oa1l Of Father Time,
His thoughts expressed:
tIn books OF prose and books of rhyme
Ofages past or present time,
The gold of thought to find and mine,
To me seems best
A oma true, whose guiding hand
Full many a soul throughout the LAID
Had helpedt to raise and firmly stani,
Her thought thus gave;
.sAll hears bowed low meath sorrows br.. nd,
Or meath the breath of sin unnamed,
We should with purpose nohly tanned.
Both seek and save"
Then next there spake a maiden fair,
With open brow and sunny hair,
And beauty that, both rich and rare,
Time makes more bright:
ssNor life nor death can bring despair,
If try abcut me ,verywhere
All grief and trouble, pain and care
To make more light"
Al youth Inst put his thought in speech,
And good the lesson he did teachi
May fan and wide lis influence reach
10 help the right:
tsWhate'er the work is given each,
To write, orfight, orteach or preach,
On any duty you can reach,
Do with your might
