Employment and Education.

GA good education, says Dr. McCosh,
Qualities a man to do a dozen different
things, where an ignorant man could do
only one. Education also enables man
to rise in any sphere OF labor in which he
is employed" The truth of this is espe-
cially valuable in these days of change in
vocations. Science is specializing every
employment; mechanism is taking the
place of manual labor, and in this
approaching readiustment of vocations,
will prove the only individual safeguard.
What industrial future is there for the
man who can use his hands only when a
machine is invented that takes the place
of a thousand pair of hands2 Obviously,
the practical need of intellectual qualifi-
cation is far greater in this age, and will
continue to increase with the progress of
humanity. 1t is the tendency OF every
trade to become an art, and of every arti-
san to become an artist in his speciality.
And in this lies the true secret of the
great need of industrial education.-

WORKING DAYS.

A-woong you came with your dulcet voice,
Your manner so knightly and debonair;
Who would not proudly have been your
choice.
When you wove her garland so rich and
rare!
It was well enough in the courting time
When your tongue spoke only in tuneful
praise,
With love-words set to a silvern rhyme;
1t is other now in the working days.
Could ever she dream, that gentle girl,
When you pledged her the tenderest care
for life,
That you brow would knit, and your lip
would curl,
When she, poor child, was your welded
wife3
Would the pretty maid have been swift to
yield,
Caught in the tolls of your winning ways,
Had rift in the futures veil revealed
The gloom that should shadow the work
ing daysl
'Tis easy to carry the hardest load
When two who share it in mind are one;
IT'S pleasant to Chamber the roughest road
With friend who is CHEEKY from sun
sun,
But crushes the burden with aching weight
If only the weaker that burden raise,
And bleak the path in the frost of fate
When jars the music of working days
Oh, holiday suitor, so brave and trim,
So gay of mien and SO soft of speech,
Pray what is your ring but fetter grim
To the wife who is learning what tyrants
teach?
Would it cost you much her home to bless
With the love you promised, the love that
stays
a strength and a sweetness through all the
stress
And all the strain of lifes working days'

Two Astonishing RObberles.

One of the most singular, most anus
ing, and at the same time, for the vic
Tins most annoying robberies, occurred
in our city Saturday. Two elderly ladies
on Michigan street were looking at the
circus procession pass by. So intent
were they in gazing upon the dazzling
pageant that not 0niy Thch y yes but their
mouths were wide open, aAl while in
this uwe-stuck condition theNyore each
startled by the slap of a rough hdNd over
their mouths OF course they were mad.
and looked around with great indigna-
tion to see who coAld be guilty of such
a rude act, and il was not until they at
tempted 10 speak, in order TO properly
express their wrath, that they discovered
their false teeth was gone. The thieves
had looked into their wide open mouths,
and saw that the plates containing tho
teeth were of gold, and they wanted
them. South Band (hd,) Tribune.

when She VIII She Will"

al thought only few men were up to
the winter bathing mark, " observed the
reporter. The bath man laughed scorn-
fully. "When lady makes up her
mind to bathe every day in the year, " he
said, nothing can stand her of. I've
seen meE who would come here on cold
mornings, undress and walk to the
waters edge, but the minute it touched
their toes, race back and get into their
clothes again. Not so with women.
When they are in bathing trim it means
bathing and nothing short of tidal
wave will stop them. Here comes the
daisy bather of the lot. I've seen that
girl here when it was so cold that to even
look at the water used to give me the
shakes. Now, what do you think first
induced that lady to bathe all the time2
For the pure love of it2 No, sir. She
was getting too fat. She tried every
thing-dieting, exercise, and medicine,
but nothing would take her down. At
last she dropped on sea bathing, and it
fetched her. She is nice and slim now,
though plump enough, but when she
came here first she was as fat as butter
ball wish all the fat ladies in the city
would have her courage, and our winter
business would be worth something. ~

THE MARCH OF THE CHILDREN

Sweet rs the smile of a fairy;
Fresh as the blossoms they carry;
Pride of the parents who love them;
Pure as the azure above them;
Free as the winds that caress them;
Bright as the sunbeams thai bless them
List to the voice-echoes ringing
Sweeter than birds they are singing:
Thoughts that TO virtue invite them
Wed unto airs that delight them;
Truths that their future will cherish,
Soulplanted, never TO perishl
Only TO senses completer
Heavens choicest music were sweeter.
Virtue unconscious, and pretty,
Walks through the streets of the city,
See the gay baunerets flyingl
Nottoes and titles undying;
Truths, dearly hallowed and olden,
Braided in strands that are golden;
Words for the spirits desiring;
Sentences sweetly inspiring.

Christ gave the children His blessing,
Twas not for one generation,
But for each epoch and nation.
So through the present it fingers,
Shed from His bountiful fingers;
So unto these it is given

"Ehese people never want for food.
The country abounds in animals and
game, and the river in fish. Large
numbers of reindeer are killed. gener-
ally shot, although during the winter
it quite frequently happens that many
are captured by driving them into
ravines where they sink into the deep
SHOWS and fall an easy prey to the
hunters. The following is a list Of
animals whose skins are preserved by
the natives viz:-Bear (black, brown
and gravy, moose, fox (white, black,
red, cross and silver gray, marten.
sable, land and. water otter, mink,
wolf, beaver and lynx. The meats of
all these animals are used for food,
great preference is given to the REIN
deer. moose and bear. The latter are
usually shot. the former trapped. The
fish caught are of many varieties, in
Guiding large quantities of salmon,
white fish, mullet, pike and sculpin.
The salmon are chiefly caught in
Hotham Inlet at the mouth Of the riv-
er that empties into it; the other
fish are caught in the river. They
are mostly caught in the summer by
means of the gill net or speared, the
dexterity with which this is done be-
ing something marvellous. The pike
weigh from seven to ten pounds,
whitefish from one to two pounds and
mullet from three to four pounds. In
the winter fish are also taken through
the ice by hook and line. The hook used
consist simply of a fiat piece of ivory,
with a sharp piece of metal screwed
into one end Of it at right angles to
the face of the ivory. White whales
are caught in Hotham Inlet, and it is
regarded by the natives as a great and
dangerous feat to catch one. Those
who are successful are looked upon as
men Of distinction. Hair seals r
also caught in Hotham Inlet, but they
do not seem to go up the river.

The Dutch ut Home.

There is q singular calm reigning in
the streets of Rotterdam, says a writer
in the cornhiW Magazine. The faces
of the passers-by are stolid; there Is no
chattering, no gesticulating. The pop
ulation is imperturbably good. 1 was
constantly struck by this feature Of
the Dutch wherever I went: they
are preternaturally tranquil. At Rot
terdam, it may be argued. the people
are preoccupied with business and
have no time to be gay and noisy.
But at their holiday resorts they are
equally quiet. One Sunday afternoon
l went down to Scheveningen, the IA
nous seaside resort near The Hague,
and I was utterly astounded at the
bearing of the crowd of holiday seek
ers. 1 could hardly help thinking that
the whole thing must be a toy, and
that the people were playing at being
good. The hotels on the top of the
sand dunes, the neat, brick-paved,
winding footpath that runs the whole
length of the upper part of the beach;
the villas, the casino, the village, the
church, with its clock painted red and
blue, with the hours picked out in
white; the little canvas bathing ma
chimes, brilliant with now paint: the
little tents on the beach, the fishing
boats. all seemed 10 accord with this
idea, they were so neat and proper.
When we arrived all the people were
out on the beach; the Sunday holiday
makers, too. had arrived, and yet the
tranquility, the stiffness. the absence
Of the sounds Of gayety, or, indeed, Of
any human sounds. were so marked
that it made n feel quite uneasy.
You met groups walking quietly; here
and there were groups sitting quietly
and talking quietly, and quiet smiles
pervaded at rare intervals their buttery
physiognomies. I presume these peo-
pie were enjoying themselves in their
W quiet way. But how unlike a
Latin crowd at the seasidei At Sche-
veningen l saw no more style, no more
elegance, no more coquetry than at
Rotterdam. Very few of the Dutch
women wore their quaint native head
dress, and these few had surrounded
it by horrible Partisan bonnets. AS
for their dress it was horrible. Once
for all may say that. generally speak
ing, found the Dutch un-
comely, the children ~unpleasing, and
the men ugly, coarse, and unsympa-
thetic. Dutch cleanliness is proverbial,
1 know; but. nevertheless, the Dutch
are not a well-washed nation In all
their towns l found but poor washing
appliances and a sad absence Of bath
houses.

THE COMSTOCM LODE.
Bullion from Ore from the Lowest
Level.

The Virginia Chronicle of recent
date says: "The first shipment of
bullion resulting from ore taken from
the 5000 level of the Hale & Nor
cross mine, was sent below by ex-
press last evening. The shipment
consisted of two bars valued at So
or. Although bullion shipments of
much greater value are constantly be-
ing made from the ore producing
mines of the Comstock, the two bars
IN the V. & 7. express car attracted
more attention at the depot last even
ing than the shipment of ten times
their value from any other source.
The great interest manifested in the
bullion shipment of last evening is
significant, and is due in great meas
uTe to the hope it inspires that the
finding of vast body of mineralized
quartz on the lower levels of the Hale
& Notcross, over $50 feet in width
and MANY hundred feet in depth, will
speedily lead to the pumping out of
the flooded mines and induce the
management to search for continu-
ance of this vast vein, which will
doubtless be found to extend with
deviation from its present course,
along the entire lode, the mineral
concentrating and developing into
rich ore bodies widening at intervals.
The ore in the bottom of the winze
on the 5000 level is said to be show
ing up splendidly and they are still
cutting ore on the east III the face of
the opening being made from the sta
ton for the reception of the hosting
engine"

HE Custer county correspondent
OF the Ketchum keystone says .there
are quite extensive ore reserves in
the Custer mine yet, which will he
worked during the winter season, as
it can be semitic the mill by tramway.
It is point with the management to
keep about one years reserve of ore
in sight. The mill has now been in
operation about four years-the first
two years with twenty stamps, the
last two with thirty and the yield is
well up in the fourth million, leaving
the owners clear profit to this time
of about two and one-half millions.
The Montana mine, on Mt. Estes, six
miles from Custer, is now worked to
a depth of 400 feet. The Whale,
and possibly one or two others, will
complete the list of mines at present
producing ores for milling. There
are number of good mines besides
these, but the owners are deveI-
oping them at their leisure and leav-
ing the ores on the dumps.
There are in the Yankee Fork Dis
trlct probably 300 people; of families
about twenty-five. There are no idle
men in the camp; in fact miners and
laborers have been in demand all sea-
son. Bonanza is unusually dull this
season, owing to the closing Of the
Charles Dickens mine since the death
year ago Of w. A. Norton, one of
the proprietors. When this noted
mine goes into the hands of com
pany, which it no doubt will in the
course OF a few months, Bonanza will
again take OH its wonted life and pros
perity.
The Washington claim, first west
extension of the Dickens, discovered
last fall, has a inch vein of rich
ore. The ore averages close to $4,000
about $500 of which is gold.'
