A PhilOsOphic Gospel.

Among artists and men of letters, /
have found no depth. l do not know if
you were at Magny's one day when |
told them that they were all gentlemen
(messieurs). They said that it was not
necessary to write for ignorant persons.
They spat upon me because | only wish
ed to write for these, seeing that these
only have need of something. The mas
tiers are provided for, rich and satisfied.
The imbecles need everything. l pity
them. To love and tdpity are not separa-
ted. and that is the little complicated
mechanism of my thought. have the
passion of the good and not at all the
sentimentalism of parti pris. l 1espise
him who pretends to have principles
aud who does contrary to what he says.
i do not pity the incendiary and the
murderer, who fall beneath the blow of
the law. pity profoundly the class
that brutal, fallen life, without range
and without aid, reduces to produce such
monsters. l pity humanity. 1 would
have it good because l cannot subtract
myself from it-because the evil 1T does
to itself strikes me to the heart; berause
its shame makes me blush; because its
crimes rack my vitals; because can not
understand paradise in heaven or on
earth for myself alone. One of George
Sands Last Letters.

A Sleighride i'm Summer.

In striking contrast with the average
American wedding. says Brooklyn
paper, where the contracting parties HE
away soon after the ceremony was a So
cial event last evening in German society
in this city, conducted in truly Teutonic
fashion. The hymeneal festivities began
early in the evening, and continued una
bated until daybreak next morning. AT
the conclusion of the ceremony the COM
pany walked in couples from the house
to the casino adjoining, and sat down at
the banqueting tables in the parlors up
stairs. In the center of the room was a
long table laden with wedding presents
and flowers. The collation. having been
served, the chief orator of the evening
read an original poem in his native
language, dedicated to the bride.
At midnight the party assembled in
the concert hall, and dancing and merry
making began. 1t had not proceeded
long when the guests were made aware
that they were in the midst of driving
sno0-storm. Large white flakes were
mys.eriously falling from above, and the
floor was soon covered with a snowy
mating. In the distance was heard the
merry ring of approaching sleigh bells.
The dancers stopped in amazement, and
the bride, clinging to her husband, anx-
iously waited an explanation of the
brilliant transformation scene. AS if by
magic the folding-doors rolled back, and
fiery black steed, richly caparisoned
galloped into the hall drawing an ele-
CANT Albany cutter. The turnout made
the circle of the room several times amid
the rousing cheers of the guests. The
bride and groom were invited TO a seat
in the sleigh, which. in few appropriate
words, was presented to them. A short
wedding ride was taken, followed by a
shower Of imaginary snowballs. The af-
fair was decidedly unique and novel, and
was genuine surprise to all save the
donors of the gift. The newly made
couple were congratulated upon having
father who could furnish them with a
sleigh-rid. in the hot months of summer

WHAT Is MIND?
Extract from DIR. HammoDd's Address at
the Lehigh University.


the Lehigh University.
Go into the chemicl laboratory of
your own noble university-in honor Of
whose founder we are here to-day - and
touch the two poles of a galvanic battery.
What is it that thrills through your
bodies, and perhaps even burns the skin
of your fingers; or, even, if the current
be strong enough, strikes you dead on
the instant? Galvanism. What is gal
yanismI? A force. Yes, and SO is light
a force, and heat, and gravitatiOn. But
when l am told this | am just as faI from
knowing what any one of the forces Is as
| was before. All thai you could do if |
persisted in asking for fuller explana-
tlon would be to tell me something OF
the origin aud pro- critics of the force in
question, and in this way lshOuld obtain
some idea of its characteristics, and
should be in no danger of mistaking 1t
for any other force. That is what your
professor of physics does for you, and, if
you have only protited by theinstruction
you have received, you have a store OF
facts at your command that will enable
you to recognize heat, light, electricity
gravitation, magnetism, whenever you
can see them manifested. When, there
fore, you ask me what mind is, | answer
that it is the force possessing peculiar
properties and developed by substance
constituting part of the nervous organ
ism of man and other animals, and
known to ANTAGONISTS and psychologists
as gray nerve-tissue. This is similar in
all essential respects, SO far IS its terms
are concerned, to the definition that you
would give me of any other force. Oh
course it can be more precise and extern
sive, but no enlargement would change
its character. Popular Science Monthly.

How Pale You Are

is frequently the exclamation of one
lady to another. The fact is not a pleas.
ant one to have mention, but still. the
act may be a kindly one, for it sets the
one addressed to thinking, apprises her
of the fact that she is not i'll good health
and leads her to seek a reason therefor.

the first stage of consumption. Inc
system Is enfeebled. and the blood Is
impoverished. DR.. Pierce's Golden

upon the system, will enrich the impov-

FATHER AND CHILD.


A lonely man in silence sat,
With hopeless gr1Gf Cypress
A gentle chi d in childhood's grace,
Chung to her fathers breast.
20, father, do not weep, she SAID,
In accents sweet and low;
Mother will come to us again,
The angels told me So"
In happy dreams the child had seen
Far of another home,
Uncouded Skies undying flowers,
Where sorrow could not come.
And seraphs with sweet harmonles
Appear'd in golden glow,
And everything was beautiful
The angels led her to.
She lay clasp'd in her fathers arms
So faint but still so fair,
And look'd toward the open door,
AS at some bright thing there.
"Mother!" she cried, with outstretched arms,
Then WHISPERED soft and low,
FEATHER! knew she'd come again,
The angels told me So"
