A Bay State Soldier.

"The men who carried rifles in the
war, or the men who went to carry
rifles and were promoted, ought to re-
ceive more attention from the writers
of war history than they do.'N This
came from an old Massachusetts man,
and his eye softened a little as he said:
" There was Lieutenant Grout. He was
the type of the class that want remem-
bered. AT Balls Bluff he was sent
across the river in charge of boatload
of men at the time when it was believed
that all who were on the wrong side
would be sacrificed. 1t was not ex-
pected that he would come back, but
when the boat touched the shore for
the last load the colonel in command
of the forlorn hope saw the lieutenant
standing ready to jump off. He asked,
impatiently, Why did you come back?
There is not room enough on the boat
for those that must go. l expected the
men sent over to remain there The
lieutenant said, quietly, 1 understood
that, but l was in charge of the boat
and l returned. l will not he in the
way, as can SWIM SO the boat was
crowded full of men who had made
the last fight, and the lieutenant, plung
ing in, started to swim across the river
In the stream midway he was struck il
the head by bullet from rebel sharp
shooters gun and went down without
struggle. "-Chicago Inter Ocean.

The Mystery of ApOpleXY.

Apoplexy is unfrequent before the
end of middle life, because up to that
time the cerebral vessels usually retain
their integrity, but there is no way in
which it is possible to predict the oc-
currence of apoplexy in person who
has never had seizure. A person who
has once had a stroke is more likely to
have another than person of the same
age who has never had one. But the
occurrence of one seizure does not nee
essarily imply a speedy recurrence of
the trouble, nor, indeed, any recurrence
at all. The individual may live to old
age without having another attack, and
finally die of some trouble wholly un-
connected with the tendency to apo
pleXy. But Notwithstanding this pos
sible exemption, it is proper and i'm
portant that the person should preserve
as closely as possible temperate
mode of life, avoiding excuses of all
kinds, and adhering as faithfully as pos
sible to that golden mean which is the
exponent of the laws of wholesome liv-
ing. Mental excitement and great
bodily exertion must be avoided, but
all mental occupation should not be pro-
hibited, and moderate physical employ
ment is one of the necessary conditions
of good ealth.-GoOd Housekeeping.

Chinese Editors.

The life of Chinese journalist is
happy one. He is free from care and
thought, and allows all the work of the
establishment to be done by the press
man. The Chinese compositor has not
yet arrived. The Chinese editor, like
the rest of his countrymen, is initiative.
He does not depend upon his brain for
editorials, but translates them from all
the contemporaneous American papers
he can get. There is no humorous depart
ment in the Chinese newspaper. The
newspaper office has no exchanges scat
tered over the floor, and in nearly all
other things it differs from an Ameri-
can establishment. The editorial room
is connected by ladder with hunks in
a loft above, where the managing editor
sleeps, and next to it is invariably
room fitted with an opium bunk and a
layout. Evidences of domestic life are
about the place-pots, kettles and dishes
taking up about as much room as the
press. If an editor finds that journal
ism does not pay, he gets job al wash
ing dishes or chopping wood, and he
does not think he has descended far,
either. Literary World.

The Last Hermit Nation.

Thibet, occupying vast region in
Central Asia, has for centuries success
fully secluded itself from intercourse
with Europeans. The Chinese and
other Buddhists and some of the people
of India have been allowed to trade
with some of the subjects of the Grand
Lama and to travel over Thibetan ter
ritory, but Europeans have been rigor-
ously excluded, and the few who have
been able to traverse the great plateau
have been compelled to disguise them
selves. This exclusion has been due
to some extent to Chinese influence,
but the Thibetans themselves have been
extremely hostile to foreigners, and
the Europeans who have attempted to
penetrate the territory have been
roughly treated. Now this country is
seeking to establish trade with western
nations. One of the Grand Lamas has
sent an official communication to the
viceroy of India, expressing a desire
for friendly relations, and this is the
first official document received from
that quarter in a century. China,
which has desired to preserve the Thi-
betan markets for itself, also agrees to
open Thibet to Indian trade. These
are the results of the efforts of Secre-
tary Colman Macauly, sent to the Thi-
betan frontier last year by the govern
ment of Bengal to remove the obstacles
to commercial intercourse. In this
way the isolation of the last hermit
nation is concluded.

the tongues of thrushes and the eggs
of partridges. AT his own meals the
peas were sprinkled with grains of
gold, pearls were scattered in dishes
of rice, and the costlest amber was
used to render palatable a dish of
beans. Crassus made great feast for
the populace during his candidacy for
the office of consul, at which ten thou
sand tables were heaped with luxuries.
Even this was surpassed by Caesar,
who, at the funeral feast on the occa-
sion of his daughters death, spread
seventy-two thousand tables, accommo-
dating three guests at each. Tiberius,
like Cleopatra, gulped down precious
stones, crushed and mixed in wine,
and he heaped the plates of favorite
guests with gold and jewels for them to
carry away. 1t was Tiberius, too, who
caused to be built boats of cedar, COW
cred with gold and precious stones,
and large enough to admit of their be-
ing turned into floating gardens, in
which were planted flowers, vines and
fruit-trees. No scene from the " Ara
bian Nights Entertainments =" could
have equaled this in splendor. But it
is to Nero that the prize for senseless
prodigality must be awarded. In the
simple recreation of fishing he used
lines of purple silk and hooks of
gold. His tiara was estimated to be
worth $500 900, and he never wore the
same costume twice. When on pro-
gress through his dominion five hun
dred asses followed in his trail to supply
milk for his daily bath. Had Elves,
the famous miser, who performed his
additions in a convenient nook and
dried himself with sand, to save the ex-
pense of soap and towels, been a spec
tator of this reckless extravaganza, he
would, in all probability, have gone
clean out of his mind.-Erchdnge

A misunderstanding.

Many were the misunderstanding
relative to the substitutes who, for a
consideration, took the place of those
who were drafted and were willing
and able to pay a man to fight for
them. A man who was drafted and
his wife, sorely distressed at the idea
of parting, were vainly endeavoring to
invent some excuse for getting him
exempted, when knock was heard at
the door. On opening it she found a
rough-looking chap, who accosted her
thus: Madam, | hear your husband
has been drafted" Yes, sir" she re-
piled, she has; but goodness knows
how l am to spare HIM" "Well,
ma'am, I've come to offer my services
as substitute for him" "a what?"
asks the now excited lady. 81 wish
to take his place." answered the man.
You-you take the place of my hus-
band, you vagabond I'll teach you tc
insult a poor, lone woman in distress
you mean, dirty wretch?" cried the
prospective widow, accompanying hen
remarks with discharge of dirty water
at the head of the astonished substi
tute, who fled hastily down the stairs
just in time to escape the pail which
followed the water.
