works exhibition Building, lately
erected in Twenty-third street., by a
CONF any of French capitalists, and in
tended to rival Mime. Tussauds exhi-
bition in London, is TO be under the
management of young Mr.. Vein

ew of the late manager of the Porte st.
Martin Theatcr in Iaris, and has Paris
ian ideas of great men. He was easily
convinced couple of days ago that Mr..
Vanderbilt is a truly great man, and
Il al we are all languishing to see him
done in wax.
Mr.. Weinschenck jumped at the
proposition He had got models of all
the crowned heads, and all the great
thieves and murderers. Now he must
have Vanderbilt.
He ca led at the palace and was ad-
mitted yesterday.
He entered tho potentate's presence

"Well," said Vanderbilt, gruffly,
"wl "a do you want?"

"Yes, sare to do YOU up in wax. l

lord of the manor, "Eouncc me this
fellow who talks of laying me out with

"Algernon measured little Vein
schenck, who began to grin Ike a
tiger, and hesita,ed. The clay saved
him. The waxworks man hit on the
happy idea of expressing himself in
French. He only wanted to model

understood and got permission. The

feast. The n1ueting-hall are lighted
up with scores of prism -fringed chan
deliers, tables are spread with all kinds
of delicacies, hundreds of invited guests,
grandly dressed, throng the room, gar
rulous groups surround the bridegroom,
Offering their congratulations, band
of music strikes up and the bride in her
wedding robes and tasseled head dress
enters the room, supported by two mat
rons, while she bends with speechless
reverence to her husband $ guests, offer
ing them sweetmeats, VINE and tea.
Men and women never feast together,
and the most trying ordeal of her
wedding duties comes when her hus-
band leaves her in the gentlemen s
room. She waits upon them in silence,
and they in turn chaff her with coarse
jests, criticise her appearance aloud and
play pra :tical jokes upon her person,
often of so cruel character that il she
emerges from the room unscalded or
unscarred she may consider herself
lucky. She must submit to all this
ribaldry and persecution with calm,
plac d, unmurmuring demeanor, and
any show of either resentment or mirth

SCIENTIFIC TEMPERANCE EDUCA.
TION.

At its annual meeting in Alton, the
Illinois w. c. I. u. decided to concen-
tra.e its efforts largely upon this depart
ment. Its Object is to secure systemat-
ic teaching concerning the nature of
stimulants and narcotics, and their ef-
feet " on the human system. in every
school supported by public money. It
hopes in this way to pre-empt childhood
for temperance and to rear n race of
-blooded, rong-hearted men and
women, who will be able to grapple
successfully with the terrible problem
of intemperance because they bring to
its consideration brains never muddled
by alcohol, and hearts that do not quail
before its menace. We have been
taught by the stern logic of defeat the
futility of expecting Legislative relief
from this great evil so long as legisla-
tors are elected by the liquor interest.
We must train up generation on pur-
pose 10 grapple with this momentous
question. The public school is the fit

sustained by the State for the sake of
training citizens for the State. II is its
