Pigeons Love.

A writer in the Scottish NafnraEsftells a story of pigeon, which illustrates the truth of the saying that God tempers the wind to the shorn lamb, and the high power of instinct prompted by parental love. Two pigeons had built their nest in the top story of the dove-cote, and had matched their young, which came out of the egg about the middle of March, 1876. On the Io h ot March very severe storm and snow rift set in at dusk. It must be noticed that the door of the dove-cote looked to the north west, from whence the storm was coming, so that the snow blew right into the portal where the young pigeons were lying, only few days old The storm was very severe, so much so that it was thought to be the hardest that had happened for many years, and the young brood would no doubt have per ished but for the happy expedient that the father of the young pigeons adopted. He stood in the doorway with his tail spread out to the storm, and the wings in a futtering position, evidently with the intention of stopping the draft, so as to shelter his naked offspring. and there he stood for hours, with the snow thick upon his back and tail, breaking the intensity of the cold. But for this the young must have died.

The world will be glad of the assurance that there arc some men ia the humblest walks of life who can't be bought with the clink of gold. A Hoosier who lost his wife a few weeks ago was waited upon few days after the funeral by a man who introduced himself as the agent of a Cincinnati medical college, and he went right to business by remarking:
 "Mr. Blank, neither of us have any time to fool away. Your wife is dead and buried. want her body for the college. l could snatch it any dark night, but that's not my way. How much cash will buy the cadaver?

For constipation use Browns Iron Toni,
A Magnetic Umbrella.
Public Opinion.l

lA N'AAS CPihiOhsI
 Sir William Thompson, of Glasgow, the eminent electrician, has been appealed to under novel circumstances to dissect an umbrella. During a recent passage of the steamer Princess Beatrice from Larne to Stranraer the man at the wheel called the attention of the commander, Captain Campbell, to the fact that the compass, since certain passenger had taken up a position near it, had ceased to work truly, the needle being irresistibly attracted to- ward the stranger. On being questioned the gentleman professed himself uncon- scious of having anything in the nature of magnet about him, but series of experiments ultimately resulted in the discovery that the magnetic inAu- ence which had caused the compass to vary to such an extent as to make it unre- liable was located in the travellers um- brella, the slightest movement of which was instantly responded to by the needle. Captain C,mpbell induced the man to sell him the magnetic umbrella, which, having been tried with similar results on the largest compasses to be found in Bel fast, has now been forwarded for inspec- tion to the distinguished scientist already mentioned. The matter is of more inn portance than might at first sight appear, since 1t is obvious that the compass-in a fog. for instance-would be very unsafe guide to steer by if its indications were liable to be falsiied by the accidental proximity of an umbrella.

The Great Southwestern Music House

The Great Southwestern Music House.
 Considering the natural advantages of the two places, and the enterprising character of their business men, it is but natural that Memphis, Tenn, and Little ROCK, Ark, should be the commercial centers and great supply depots of their own and several adjoining states. Among the business houses of the two cities there is none that stands higher or better de- serves the trade it commands than the Great Southwestern Music House of H. G. Hollenberg. A business career of over thirty years in Memphis and of six years in Little Rock, during which these houses have virtually controlled the music trade of Arkansaw, Tennessee, Mississippi, north Alabama, rorth Texas aud the Indian Territory, places them prominently above all southern competi. tors. These houses carry the largest and most complete stock of the best m akes of pianos and organs, sheet music and all goods pertaining to their line, and are prep ared to fill orders without any delay, and at prices less than the purchaser can obtain in the east, frei sht considered All goods handled by Fl. G. Mollenberg are comprised in a neat catalogue which will be mailed free to any address. Par ties contemplating the purchase of a piano, or organ. or musical merchandise of any description, should not tail to ob- tain Hollenberg's prices befor. ordering elsewhere. Address, H. C.

looSton lraVcler.
 Journalism is difficult and uncertain Literature without the highest order of talent is hopeless. -Lyceum featuring has passed its prime, and the most gifted and famous alone can win in that arduous field. Public readings as an avocation for women is as much overcrowded as the legal profession for men. In music, vocal and instrumental, there is an abso- lute glut of the market, save for the high ly endowed. Moreover, in all these lines the stand ard is rising so steadily and to such height that mediocrity, once en- durable, is now hopelessly condemned. Te be fourth or even third-ra,e mu |. sician is to have failed outright To paint daubs and call them pictures is a positive sin. To murder the modern language by false accent and atrocious grammar hath not forgiveness in this world The in- ventory have outlined includes most of the higher occupations open to women save one, and that is the bro ,d, nay, the we'll nigh boundless field of practical philanthropy. Here, at last, the world is called before you, where to choose. No class of workers here out-rank women in opportunity, dignity, or the rewards that a sincere heart prizes most. To be sure wealth cannot be won here, but a moder- ate income sufficient for current needs, is certain to all faithful and efficient workers
