A Genuine Freeze Out.

Another effect of the curious San
Francisco climate is of considerable in
terest to strangers, as it makes nine
out of every ten sick the first week they
are here. The traveller from New
York, or even Canada, coming here at
this season does not bring his furs and
tlannels. Before getting to California
he crosses thousands of miles of plains
and deserts, and is nearly baked. He
smiles if San Franciscan happens to
be along and talks of overcoats, and, if
the San franciscan is q smaller man,
feels like knocking him down when he
sits up and watches him wipe the pers-
piration off his brow and talks about
cold winds and flannels.
1t must be confessed that along the
Arizona or Utah desert, with the Their
mometer boiling in the shade, the
easterner has right to feel angry with
the San Franciscan's talk, and even
until Oakland, only three miles from
the city, is reached, his incredulity
seems justified; but now it is different.
Mark the change that a short three
miles briggs. Mark how paltry half
hour will draw that self-cOnhdent east
ener up, will chill and turn blue his
erstwhile smiling lips. The keen wind
sweeps across the bay, and by the time
the terry lands at Market Street, San
Francisco, climate has got in its work,
and the easterner goes to bed shivering,
while one of the porters goes out and
gets him "back- warmer" and some
winter clothing.
Wealthy people here go away in the
SUMMER to get warm, instead OF cool,
and about the first of every June the
furs and llannels are packed away,

MOltke the Silent.

Moltke the Silent-der SchUei1er-
as he is called, is generally considered
the greatest, and is certainly the most
successful, of living soldiers. His
achievements at Koniggratz, Sedan,
and Paris have never been surpassed,
and compel the admiration of all COM
potent military critics. Silent, quiet,
cold, the very incarnation of concen-
trated thought, just as you see him
walking in the streets or moving in a
/ drawing-room, when everybody stands
respectfully aside to let him pass-so
he stood on the battlefield, his cold
clear eye passing slowly from one point
to the other, and his cold clear mind
weighing the chances of victory and
defeat with the intensity and serenity
of mathematician bordering over the
solution of some great problem. No
one, it is said, has ever seen Count
Moltke excited, not even at Sedan,
where the greatest victory of modern
times decided the fortunes of the two
most powerful empires of the Cont
nent. His calmness seems mysterious,
almost awful, and there is something
strangely sad about that silent, lonely
old man. His wife died some years
ago; he never had a child; his nearest
relations, with the exception of a nephew
and niece, seem to be kept at a dis
lance by him. Who are his compan-
ions and his friends? To whom does
he ever talk in friendly, familiar
way? Nobody has ever been able
70 tell me, though l have often in
quired. An old man of eighty-four, he
still appears without fail wherever
duty calls him. He is to be seen at al
most all the Emperor's receptions, the
most striking parsonage near the
throne. But how does the old Field
Marshal pass his time when free from
duty, when tired of work? Nobody
pretends to know. Either nobody pen
etrates into his intimacy, or else those
who approach him intimately do not
speak about it. When the weather is
fine you may see very tall, thin man,
with very light yellowish hair and a
sallow, beardless, wrinkled face, out of
which shine pair of stony gray eyes,
wrapped in long, dark military coat.

tended by a servant, walks slowly,
noiselessly. Every one who meets him
looks at him attentivelY; if the passer-
by is a soldier he stands on one side and
saIutes. The old General returns the
salute slowly and deliberately, but APP
parently without seeing to whom.

The First Watch.

At first the watch was about the size
Of desert plate. 1t had weights and
was used as a pocket clock The
earliest known use of the modern name
occurs in the record of 1902, which
mentions that Edward VI. had lone
larum or watch of iron, the case being
likewise of iron gilt, with two'plum-
NETS of lead" The first watch may
really be supposed to be of rude execu-
ton. The first great improvement was
in 1860. The earliest springs were not
coiled, but only straight pieces of steel.
Early watches had only one hand, and
being wound up twice day, they could
not be expected to keep the time of day
exactly. The dials were of silver and
If brass; the cases had no crystals, but
opened at the back and front and were
four or five inches in diameter. A
plain watch costmor than $1,000, and
after one was ordered it took year to
make it, -PittS6Tgh Dispatch.

Honey for Children.

Children would rathereat bread and
honey than bread and butter. One
pound Of honey will reach. as far as two
pounds, of butter, and has, besides. the
advantage of being far more healthy
and pleasant tasted, and always remains
good, while butter soon becomes rancid
and Cfaen produces cramp in the stom-
ach, eructatiOns, sourness, vomiting
and diarrhea, Purs' honey should al
WAYS be freely used in every family.
Honey eaten upon. wheat bread is very
beneficial to healtn. The use of honey
instead of sugar IN almost every kind
OF cooking is pleasant for the palate as
it is healthy for she stomach. In pre-
pairing blackberry or raspberry short-
cake it is infinitely superior.
1t is common expression that honey
is luxury, having nothing to do with
the life giving principle. This is an
error honey is food in one OF its most
concentrated forms. True, it does not
add so much to the growth of muscles
as does beefsteak, but it does impart
other properties no less necessary to
health and vigorous physical and in
tellectual action. 1t gives warmth to
the system, arouseS nervous energy and
gives vgor to all the vital functions.
To the laborer it gives stAngth-to the
business man mental force. Its effects
are not like ordinary stimulants, such
as spirits, etc, but it produces a healthy
action, the results of which are pleas
ing and permanent-a sweet disposition
and bright intellect. American CaI-ti-

Incidents at a Fire in COnstantinCpIe.

We saw young woman brought out
of burning house with a copper ket-
tie in her hand. She was screaming
wildly: "My baby o., my baby ~
The woman had been engaged in the
kitchen, with her infant in her arms,
and had been busily occupied saving
her cooking utensils by throwing them
into the cistern, quite unconscious that
her dwelling was already on fire. The
firemen, having discovered her in that
perilous place, had rushed into the
kitchen and forced her to hasten out.
On her way she had espied a copper
kettle, and had instinctively seized it;
but in her fright and bewilderment,
she had thrown her baby into the els
tern instead of the kettle. Fortunate
ly a sturdy fellow succeeded in rescu-
ing the baby and restoring it to the dis
tracted mother.
The other incident was even more
dreadful. As we stood looking at the
fire we beheld man struggling, and
the next moment saw him thrown de.
liberately into the flames.

The Habits Of Monkeys.

Kengger,. who studied the American
monkeys carefully, says shat they evil
IDENTITY understand each others ges-
lures, and this is evident enough to all
who spend little time in large col
lection of them. They have their likes
and dislikes, and submit to be leased
and bullied by some fayogite, although
of different species; the contrary, how
ever, is the usual occurrence, and they
resent familiarities very readily. Per-
haps the most amusing instance of this
tondness is given by Mr.. Darwin, who
had it from the Superintendent of the
Gardens. Two chimpanzees, which
were rather older animals than those
usually brought to England, were in
troduced to each other for the first
time. "Ihey sat opposite, touching
each other with their mlaeh protrudine
lips, and the one put his hand on the
shoulder of the other: They then
mutually folded each ether in their
arms. Afterward they stood up, each
with one arm en- the shoulder of the
other, lifted up their heads, opened
their mouths, and yelled with delight. ~
Mr.. Bartlett, of the Geological Gar
dens, states that the faculty of atten-
ton which is necessary for imitation.
obedience and teaching is q very vari-
able one among the same species OF
monkeys, and told Mr.. Darwin the fol-
lowing anecdote: "a man who trains
monkeys TO act used to purchase com
mon kinds from the Geological Society
at the cost of 60 for each, but he offered
to give double that price if ne might
keep three or four of them for few
days in order to select one. When
asked how he could possibly So soon
learn whether a particular monkey
would turn out good actor, he ans
swered that it all depended on their
power of attention. If when he was
talking and explaining anything to a
monkey its attention was easily dis
tracted, rs by fly on the wall or other
trilling object, the case was hopeless.
If he tried punishment to make an in.
attentive monkey act it turned sulky.
On the other hand, u monkey which
carefully attended to him could always
