Infant Ideas.

A South Side man took his little girl
Just able to talk nicely, to the lake
shore Sunday afternoon. The waves
were gently ripping on the beach, and
when her father was not looking the
child managed to get one foot wet.
She ran to her father with tears in her
eyes and sohbed. Papa, lake step on
baby's foot"
A bright little girl who lives in Hyde
Park asked Tor a second saucer of ice
cream the other evening.
Il don't think it's good for YOU; ask
your father" said her mother.
The girl went into the library and
put the question. Not much" said
her father, enphatically.
Papa says can have little" she
reported to her mother with truthful
and innocent eyes.
A precocious youngster who had
been piously brought up was told that
he might go with his mother to Sun
day-school picnic the following day.
When bedtime came he said his pray
ers with great JUNCTION, and Immediate
ly went through them a second time.
whats that for, Fred?" asked his
mother in surprise.

Residents of the TOrtuoas,

With the summer the green turtle
and the great ioggerhead show their
heads near the keys. The first moon
light night they furtively inspect the
shores. Lie concealed until a little
after nightfall, and the expelled breath
Ct the turtles is soon heard as they
touch bottom, and cautiously peer out
to see that all is quiet. The huge crea-
lures now come forth, and, reaching
the topmost portion of the beach, pro-
coed at once to dig with hind tlippers q
place for their eggs. Once fairly at
work nothing but absolute force will
prevent their accomplishing their pur-
pose. Indeed, we have, while seated
on the back Of one of the huge logger
head turtles, taken it's eggs, Seg1dti1n,
until the whole complement were de-
posted. At this juncture the creature
quickly PUSHES for the sea; not, how
ever, until she has carefully replaced
the sand by the powerful sweep of the
hind tlippers. She has done her duty,
even if her nest is robbed of every egp.
and she troubles herself no more. Now
is the time to turn the great reptile,
if you care to use her flesh for food.

was a welcome item in the subsistence
department. Parties found much in

turning" Usually two or three men
were required. Once on their backs
the reptiles are helpless. Some ex-
amples weigh five hundred pounds.
The hawksbill, from which the beau
tiful shells are taken. is as common in
those waters as the green turtle, so
highly priced. Key West is the grand
station for the latter, which are caught
in the creeks among the mangroves
and kept for the markets in pens called
"crawls." Most of the turtles of the
New York market are from this region.

How Sermons Are Made,

Some curious revelations as to the
process by which sermons are manu-
featured were given in case in the
law courts recently. A vicar at Dept
ford had. it seems, employed the wife
of foreman in manufactory there
to assist him in connecting his sermons,
promising to ''remem Der herr in his
will by way of remuneration. He, how
ever, omitted to make one, and her
claim of f100 year compensation
was not legally enforceable, though, if
the vicar inflicted two sermons a Sun
day on his congregation, the amount
was not excessive for the work done.
For she had to select the subjects and
texts, and then ''out of five family
bibles by different authors, she col
lected the notes, references, and author
tiles. and set tneu in order The

BY malaria, how shall we escape the dread in

4 Land Far Away.

In AntananriXo, the capital of NADIA
gascar, no public conveyance of any
kind is used except the .'tilanzana,
borne on the backs of slaves, generally
employed by the foreign residents of
the Andrians and persons of rank and
caste. At 10 O'Clock gun from the
palace yard is fired, and all is hushed
in repose; the deathly silence of trop-
zeal night, only broken by the sing
song hail of the native sentries about
the town. The principal occupation
Of the mass of the population seems to
be always walking the streets or sit
ting wrapped closely in their white
lambason, their launches against every
convenient wall and dreaming the
dull hours away. Sometimes a great
''Rabary," or public meeting, excites
them to faster walk, or to more con-
gregation or gesticulation; and on Fri
day, the capital market day, great
crowds of them press into the plain to
the south of the city devoted to that
purpose.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 10, 1886.
A New species OF the Genus Homo.

A tramp, fully up to the standard as
regards dress and general personal ap-
pearance, was seated in corner of a
putting at the last quarter of a disrep-
utable-looking cigar. On the wall
was a large sign which prohibited
smoking in that room. After some
ladies had commenced to cough in a
menacing manner, and TO look excited
" at the notice, and then glance indig-
nantly at the tramp. who was still puff
fling calmly and unconsciously, think
ing pleasant thoughts OF how nice 1t
was to have smoking-room comforta-
bly, furnished all for nothing, and
imagining now that he was in the
smoking saloon OF his steamyacht Gid
ing along the shores of the blue Med
iterranean, and now that he was in the
window of the Union League Club,
thinking over his Presidential policy
and picking out Cabinet, the gate
keeper caught him by the shoulder and
rudely accosted him:
''Get out of here!'
"Why?" asked the tramp calmly
but firmly.
Cant you read?"
The tramp looked hurt.
What does that notice sav?"
The tramp looked up YEARLY and
read: Gentlemen must not smoke in
this roomn
''Then what do you mean by pulling
at that dirty butt?"
81 am not gentleman"
The gatekeeper stood aghast at the
lowness to which this creature had
sunk. He had been born and brought
up in America; he had seen gentlemen
who laid paving stones and construct
ed sewers; he had seen gentlemen
whose business it was to remove ashes;
he had even known unfortunate gen
tlemen who had been sent to the Island;
in fact, he had been familiar with all
classes of society, but he had never
seen any one so utterly devoid of self
respect as not to resent the slightest
intimation that be was not gentleman
He turned away with a look of con-
tempt, that was almost pity, and told
the ticket agent that the company must
make new rule for "theSe dirty for
eigners. "-Ne1O York Life.

The exact size of Noah's ark has not
been determined definitely, but accord
ing to Sir Isaac Ncwton's calculations.
based on his estimate of the length of
a cubit i'll feet and inches, the histor-
zeal barge must have been 515 62 feet
long, 50. 81 feet wide, and 5l.56 feet
deep. The measured tonnage OF the
ark was 1882. The Great Eastern
was $50 feet long, So feet wide and So
feet deep. and she measured 2S,O93
tons. Although the Great Eastern was
not SO well proportional as the ark,
she probably had double the carrying
capacity if her coal and machinery
were left out OF her. because she was
made of iron and the ark was wood

Leprosy is rare disease in this
country. There is no cure for it. In
1874 there was leper hospital in New
Orleans. On the Bay of Chaleurs, on
the New Brunswick shore of the Gulf

hospital for many years-a sorrowfu

Future of the Buiiding-Stone In.
dustry.
Concerning the future of the build
ing-stone industry little that is definite
can be said. As the population in
creaseS and becomes more fixed in its
abode, there naturally arises demand
for more durable building material
than wood, which is still largely used
in the country towns and smaller cities.
As wealth accumulates, too, better and
more substantial buildings are erected,
which are often profusely embellished
with the finer grades of ornamental
stones. The demand, then. is sure to
increase. In regard to the amount of
the supply there can be no question;
everything would seem to depend on
quality, variety, and cost of working
OF -to-be-discovered material.
in many of the Eastern and earliest
TO be settled States very little is yet
known regarding their final resources.
In Maine, for instance, fully one half
of the State is as yet unknown land.
Its present quarries are nearly all i'm
mediately upon the coast. What are
the resources of its immense interior
can not with certainty be foretold. In
the Southern and Western States and
Territories, this condition of affairs is
naturally greatly magniiied. The Vir-
ginias, North and South Carolina, and
Georgia, all contain excellent material,
none of which is now in our principal
markets. Michigan can furnish brown
sandstones in great abundance fully
equal to any now quarried in the more
Eastern States, and other sandstones
of beautiful mellow tint are known
to occur in Western Arizona. The
Rocky Mountain region contains an
abundance, both in variety and guam
tity, of GRANTEES, sandstones, marbles,
and the more recent volcanic rocks, as
basalts, rhyolites, and trachytes. Some
of these are very beautiful, excelling
anything in this respect from the East
ern States. George z: Merrill, IN Popu-
lar Science Monthly for august.

1t is limited that the Princess of Wales
wears wig, ami it is said that the fact
is that she is bald or nearly so. Her
head was shaved during a severe ILL
ness, and her hair has since refused to
grow. Consequently the royal ward
robe includes fifty wigs, the distin-
guishcd feature of which is that the
curls are brought well over the fore
head. Artistic dressing serves another
purpose also, and the presence of a
mark of Disagreement on the swan-like
neck is eflectually concealed by the
high collar, large bow, band of velvet,
or other artless contrivances invariably
worn by the future Queen.
