KIDNAPPING.

1t was said that about the middle
of the eighteenth century little boy
of noble birth was lost by his nurse
in London streets, probably stolen
for the sake of the rich clothing he
wore. The child was of tender age
only about three or four years old
and though every effort was made to
recover him, time passed without any
tidings of the boy reaching the be-
reaved parents. On the LIST of May,
however, a fine London house was
undergoing the process known as
Spring clearing, when, of course,
chimneys must be swept, and amiser-
able, ragged little climbing-boy, of
eight or nine years old, was intro
duced into the drawing-room for the
purpose of executing his allotted
task. We can imagine that, accom-
panied by his master, he had no time
to look round the room before cnte-
ing the dark chimney; but it would
appear that he descended little
sooner than was expected and found
himself alone in the spacious apart
ment. When we was discovered the
child was in floods of tears, yet
gazing through them on the portrait
of q lady which hung on the wall.
On being Intercepted, he exclaimed !:
81 know that picture-it is my
mother !"
Perhaps the child remembered
other things, which served to con-
vince his parents of his identity; or
perhaps there was family likeness
which persuaded them. However
this might be, they were satisfied
that they had recovered their lost
darling and rescued him OF once from
| his bondage. London SOctetY.

SLANG.

" It's q fact" said the colonel, as
he entered the drug store, kicked
the paint key into position, and
mopped the sweat from his brow,
that slang is becoming more and
more prevalent, I'll be hanged if
you can't hear it everywhere, and
used by nearly every one. Its use
seems to have become second nature
with the young and old, and it crops
out in their conversation just as
though they had been taught it at
school. Nice, stylish young ladies
will be walking along the street busily
engaged talking, and their attention
will be attracted by a new bonnet or
dress, ond they'll chorus, Amt that
stunning ? You bet; it's a daisy,
or That looks immense Then one
will ask another if she likes ice cream
and soda water, OF if she had nice
time at the party the night before,
and the reply would be, L should
SMILE I'D blush to murmur, 1
should smoker to laugh or occa-
sionally, the forcible if not elegant
expression, You bet your boots.
And the young men, with their
thousand and one slang phrases
and by-words, maintain the suprem-
acy of their sex, in this line at least.
Why, it has got so now that people
can hardly converse five minutes
without ringing in 1T yanks the bun,'
i should elongate my features 1T
removes the dilapidated linen from
the shrubbery,' OF some other slang
expression. Something should be
done to check this habit, and if the
users of slang would only pause and
think how it sounds, they would go
light on it, and, while perhaps not
entirely discountenancing its use, not
make it paramount to everything
else, would be pleased with them
selves, and finally get so that they
would be astonished to think that
they ever soiled their conversation by
the use of slang. It's an experiment
worth trying, anyhow" and the
colonel got up and said he was going
home to take his ducklings down to
the creek for swim, and see the old
hen "crawl all over herself" for fear
some of them will drown.-BaI0W'S

TO THOSE WHO DO NOT ADVERTISE.

Sing, business muse, the dark and dole

OF him who lubors but that he may wait !;
The piles of goods heapcd up within his

Which cart be less and never may be

The man whose life has lost all fortunes

In fact, the man who never advertises.
Sing of his start, his great, ambitions

The capital that gave him cause to hope.
His credit large, his full aud ample
stock,
His bank account as solid as rock
Then tell the doom to which the man
was fated
Whonever advertised, but simply waited

Which basement art irradiates and re-

Impatient waited all the season through,
With precious little for the crowd TO do.
The public saw-the fact there's no

THE DUTY ON SUGAR.

Washington, December 29.-"Cer-
tainly we shall propose Il reduction
of sugar rates. said Morrison,
Chairman of the Ways and Means
Committee, in response to question.
"Why not? The revenue from this
source is enormously in excess of the
demand of the Government, and it is
good policy to reduce the duty on the
necessaries of life
"The planters will put up the
price, will they not?"
Surprising they will, is that any
reason why the Government should
still impose an unnecessary burden
upon the people?"
"What is your idea of the scope
of the measure that is to give the
relief you speak OFF," was the next
question.
"This much | can say, the reduc
ton proposed will be such as to com
mend the bill to the people, if it does
not to the majority of the House
We will try to accomplish something
satisfactory or we might just as wei
leave the business to the other fellows
and let them perpetuate the mono
poles"

where she goes and she was so pious

angels don't break dogs legs. I'll
bet when she goes up to the gate and

look for the charges against her,
she will tremble as though she had

finger down the ledger, and stops at
the dog column, and turns and looks
over his spcctacles, and says:
MADAM how about your stabbing
poor dog with a velocipedc, and
breaking its leg?" she will claim it
was an accident. But she can't fool
st. Peter. He is on everybody's

in the boys face with an expression

Well, l didn't mean any disres-

his hand, "but l learned in Sunday

SOMETHING NEW IN BILLIARDS.

A new game of billiards for the
experts has been devised, and the
Collender Company proposes to hold
q tournament at the new game in the
spring. All the first-class men will
be invited to compete for money
prizes. At the regular three-b ball
game any of them is able to make
almost interminable runs. The con-
tinuous balk-line game and the
champions game have been found
too easy, and cushion carroms too
hard, besides being Objectionable for
the reason that it does away with
many Of the most beautiful shots in
billiards, notably the direct carrom
force, spread, and masse shots.
The player is not allowed to make
more than three strokes while the
balls are within the corner spaces
without driving at least one Of the
object balls outside of that space on
the third stroke. In the spaces along
the side cushion the player must
drive an object ball out on the second
counting stroke. In the larger CEN
ter space carroms may be made at
will. The game permits nursing,
but a difficult kind of nursing, so
that the player cannot make extra
ordinary high runs. At the same
time he can make runs long enough,
and not too long, to be interesting.
The game has been tried by some of
the leading experts, and they are
pleased with it.-N. Y. Sus.

The WORLDS EXPOSITION.

Extensive preparations are being
made in New Orleans for the World
Industrial Exhibition, which will
open in that city on the first Monday
in December, 1884, and continue for
six months. 1t will be a worlds ex-
position of industry, and will, in
many essential features, surpass any
exposition heretofore held in this
or any other country. Much atten-
ton will be paid to the horticultural
department. The erection of the
building for this division will be soon
commenced. 1t will cost about
fl00, 900, and will be a handsome
and convenient structure. 1t is an
nounced that the manager of the
affair will secure an exhibit of all
such fruits as will be in season dur
ing any part of the period during
which the exposition will continue,
or as can be held over by the most
efficient system of cold storage. 1t
is expected that a large variety of
fruit will be on exhibition from
every state in the Union; from the
Provinces of British North America !;
from Mexico and the Central America,
states, and from all the important
nations of the world. The main fair
building, now in course of erection,
will, when completed, cover thirty
two acres of grounds. II. Giro

FOES 10 GDMEnRT.

Tides, however elegant, have long
been condemned rs foes to comfort.
If secured to the chair by pins they
slip to one side and distort themselves
most untidily, and if not fastened
they invariably attach themselves to
the first sisters shoulders with exas-
perating fidelity. But even with
these drawbacks housekeepers persist
in their use, considering them in their
present elaborate form rather deco
rative than useful. Where they are
really handsome, as they often are,
they might be hung as bannerettes or
added to table scarfs to supplement,
or as substitutes for the end of deco
ration. In the days of very high
backed chairs on anti-macassar prin-
ciples, protecting tides, which were
then of q washable nature, were alb
solute necessities, but now it is pay
ing visitors q poor compliment to
presuppose the drawing-room chairs
should be preserved from contact
with their shoulder-blades. The evo-
luton of the original yarn tidy is the
small, stuffed, bolster-shape cushion
to hang to the top of the chair with
cord and kept in place by its own
weight. Plush is the prettiest
material of which to make these
cushions, and a spray of flowers in
arrasene work makes them quite
handsome additions to easy-chairs.
They are also useful to take the
place of upholstery upon willow
chairs, which are only supplied with
cushioned scat. -Phladelphjo

THE RHYME or 1.-THE REPORTER. I"

"With fingers blackencd with ink,
With eye-lids heavy and red,

Writing for daily bread.

The foreman grumbled and sworc,
And the Office boy like an "Olivcr
Twist"
Constantly cried for "more.n
He had told of broken leg,
That had never been broken at all;
lie had killed off the nearest friend he
had,
And torn up a house in a squall.
And now he was at an end, he hadn't
an item left;
And he bowed his head to the small
boys scorn,
Like fellow of hope bereft.
They found him u corpse that night,
In a street so dreary and sloppy,
With the foreman whispering into his
ear,
And the small boy waiting for copy"

The JAPANESE pERsIMMnN

Postmaster Mccormick last week
presented this office with sample of
fruit grown on his premises, that is
worth more than passing notice.
The fruit is known as the "Date
Plum, OF Japanese Persimmon, the
technical name being "Teorpyros
Kaki." Mr.. Mccormick has one
tree that this year blossomcd and
bore nearly 100 fine specimens,
which conclusiyely shows that it is
well adapted to this soil and climate.
This delicious and valuable fruit is
being grown in various parts of the
State, and its successful culture is
fully established. The tree is highly
ornamental, aprolific bearer, as hardy
as the pear, and fruits as early.
Its season is from October to March,
when other fruits are scarce, and
when dried is equal to figs and
can be kept long time. 1t is a
bright, yellow orange or vermillion
color, and is unsurpassed for the
table. 1t ranges in weight from
eight to twelve ounces, often weigh
ing as high as one pound. The
specimen is the first of the kind we
have ever seen, and as Mr.. McCor.
mick has demonstrated beyond n
doubt that this delicious fruit can be
successfully grown here, we advise
all our fruit growers to try it. Not
only will it prove profitable, but no
fruit tree grows that is more orna-
mental. -ShaSt0 Democrat.

VISITS OF The LIVING TO THE BEAD.

There is q very interesting account
of the opening of the tomb of Ed
ward l. in letter from Mr.. Cough
to Tyson, in Vol. VIII. page G12, of
Nichols Literary Anecdotes" It
is probably well known to most read
ers, but | copy it, in case it should
not been already noticed in these
pages: "The opening of the tomb
of Edward L. and the actual view
of the dead conqueror of Scotland,
enshrined in robes of royalty, his
crown on his visage so well preser-
we'd as to exhibit likeness to an able
draughtsman, mantle of red paned
with white, and at every square a
jewel of chased work, bespread with
pearls and red and blue stones; SUI
perb fibular fastening the mantle on
the right sholder, studded with pearls
and twenty-five joints, headed and
screwed in by brilliant sapphire;
his hands bare and entire (bone with
tanned skin, but no nails), holding,
the right q sceptre surmounted by a
cross feure; the left another, longer,
surmounted by three clusters of oak
leaves diminishing and terminating
by a dove. These scepters were of
gilt metal, as also the crown of feur-
de-lis, The feet were enveloped,
but the toes, planta, and talus might
be felt, distinct and feshy, and the
whole body of six feet two inches
long. Over the mantle was wrap
per or two, one. strongly cerated."
Hampden's grave in Great Hampden
Church, was opened by his biogar-
pher, Lord Nugent, "and the body
was found in such perfect state
that the picture on the staircase of
the house was known to be his from
the likeness. Climbs Abbeys,
Castles and Ancient Halls of Englend
and Wales" In 1896 the bodies
of Lady Kilsyth (widow of Viscount
Dundee, the celebrated Claverhouse,
and wife of the late Viscount Kilsyth)
and her infant son were eXhumed
and found in the most extraordinary
state of preservation. They met
their death in 1717 in Flanders, by
the falling in of the roof of house in
which theyand anumber of other Scot
fish eXiles were assembled. Their
bodies were embalmed and sent over
to Scotland, where they were buried
with greatpomp at Kilsyth, in the fam
lily vault. The minister at Kilsyth thus
describes their appearance in 1896:
"rhe body of Lady Kilsyth was
quite entire; every feature and every
limb was as full as the day she was
lodged in the tomb. The features,
nay, the very expression of hes
countenance, were marked and dis
tinct. The body of her son lay at
her knees. His features were as
composed as if he were asleep; his
colour was as fresh and his flesh as
plump and full as in the perfect glow
of health. Perhaps the mast singu-
lar phenomenon was that the bodies
seemed not to have undergone the
smallest decomposition, and they re-
tanned their elasticity even after being
exposed to the open air for many
months. Several medical gentlemen
examined them, and an incision was
made into the arm of the infant.
The bodies seem to have been pre-
served in liquid of the appearance
of brandy, and the head inclined on
a pillow containing strong-sccnted
herbs. Balm, sage, and mint were
easily distinguished. Notes and
Queries.

THE RED SUNSETS.

Scientists of more or less reputa-
ton have given three causes for the
crimson sunsets which have lighted
up the Western sky with varying
brilliancy of color during the last six
weeks. The first theory was that the
cause was local. Forest fires were
assumed to have thrown volume of
smoke and dust into the air, which,
intercepting the SUMS rays at a GER
tain angle, produced the effect des-
cribed. But the local theory was
quickly abandoned when newspapers
from the East and Europe described
similar phenomena. OF course a
forest fire in California could not
send smoke and dust to color a
European sky, and consequently q
cause wider in its possible effects
had to be looked for. The Java
earthquake was such cause. As
the commissions of nature attending
that outbreak were such as are wit
messed but once in several centuries,
the assumption was fair that its
effects were as rare as the cause.
The Java earthquake theory has not
been disproved, but another cause
has been suggested. The Pons comet,
which had single tail in 1912, has
double one now, and Professor
Swift, of Warner Observatory, thinks
that the changes the comet is under
going as it approaches the sun
furnish the matter which comes into
our atmosphere and refracts the rec
rays of the sun. Mr.. Swift is posi-,
tive only in the negative-that Tho
red sunsets are not caused by earth.
