Natures Strange Reprisal.

Very near where we live, writes a
Hanover, Germany, correspondent, is
the ancient Garten church, in a large
cemetery. Here Goethe's Lolita is
buried. Her grandson lives in Hano-
yer, and is a wealthy bachelor. He
proposes to erect suitable building in
which to place his valuable collection
of curios, and then present them to
the town.
In the same cemetery is most
curious monument. A lady died, and
reports say that she was poisoned by
her nephew. Upon one of the stones
which marks her grave is an inscrip-
ton declaring that this grave should
not be open till eternity" Now nature
would not allow herself to be thus de-
fed. and very large tree has grown
up from the center of the grave and
forced every stoue out of its proper
place. Three immense blocks of gran
lite, fastened together by the strongest
iron clamps, from the foundation upon
which rest three other blocks, sur
mounted by single block, over which
is carved a stone pail. The trees roots
have risen up from under the stones
and formed long claws, which seem
instinct with life and grasp the stones
as if with death-like grip, bursting
every clamp, and twisting the stones
and turning them On one side and an
other in most curious and wonderful
manner. A most singular feature too
is the fact that there is not another
tree of this kind in the cemetery, and
not even in the whole town.

Two Friends.

We have always had a sincere af-

what skeptical scientist, who believes
less than he hears and not all that he
sees, and has the trick of discrediting
the signs of emotion with more critical
frankness than falls to the lot of most
Exclusive and concentrated for his own
part, he does not take well with catho-
licity; and he looks on general anna
bility, so he says, as a "thundering"
fault. We know that to be with him
is to be sacrificed before we leave him.
Yet we are glad to meet him, all the
same; thinking too that little honest
f1aying-without witnesses-is by no
means unwholesome for ones soul.
Then there is that other friend who
stands at the opposite end of the scale
"a prophesier of smooth sayings
the weaver of silken tissues only-the
sweetest, softest, blandest and most
amiable creature under heaven. To
be in his society is like seeing oneself
in mirror that beauties every fea-
ture and glorities every circumstance
of ones condition. He finds no fault,
but, on the contrary, paints only our
virtues in the brightest colors, so that
we may be excused if-human nature
being but frail kind of thing at the
best-we find him one of the most
charming companions in the world;
until the inevitable question forces it.

this is real and how much is pretty IA

The Chances of Fewer Marriages.

Girls are no more angels than men
are apes, and there are other vices be-
sides impurity, such as envy, unchari-
tableness, malice, untruthfulness, and
ill-temper. Are all the vices on our
side? Post-nuptial backslidingS are
worse than ante-nuptial divagations,
and if the balance is TO be struck after
marriage it is not easy to say on which
side the slide would be. There is one
lesson which we, all of us, in what
ever rank or society we may be, have
to learn, and the sooner we learn it
the better-the lesson of humility, Of
modesty, of economy. We are no
longer the lords of creation; we have
no longer a monopoly OF capital or
production, rents and interests will
fall lower still, and unless we realize
the situation. come down from our
high horse, and moderate our views of
style and expenditure, very serious
trouble will overtake society. We had
better give up sneering ut those dirty
foreigners" and initiate a little of their
frugality. But the example must be
set by those above; SO long as the
leaders of the great world indulge in
display, those below will spend their
last shilling in an insane attempt to be
in the running. Diamond, lace, cost
ly fabrics, whether for dress or furni-
ture, long and lavish dinner parties,
heavy suppers after balls, all these
things might be made questionable
by wave of Zenobia's wand. Unless
some change of this kind is made in
our habits, or unless some happy rev.
olution occurs in our economic history,
there will be fewer marriages than ever
in Vanity Fair.-Ihe National ReUiew.

Stage Cosmetics.
You enter without ringing, and turn

Captain Nathaniel Palmer, of Ston-

way he saved the discovery: lie was
getting ready to leave it, when Rus

mer was ambitious to claim the land
for the United States. How to contend
with the ship of the Gar he did not
know at first. He waited till the frigate
ran to the leeward OF him and hove to,
and then he put up his sheet and
squared away for her, running under
her stern and calling out rs he shot
past: ''Ahoy, there! ship ahoy! do you
want a pilot imp The ruse succeeded,
for the Russian at once filled away,
and left the dominion free to the Stars

The Chinese take their history back
to the time of Noah. The Empire has
borne in its time many names, for it
was custom when a new dynasty as
cended the throne TO give another
name to the Empire, as Hai-que, Chum-
que, Han-oue. ETC., according to the
name of lie ruling monarch. The true
name is said 20 be Chum-que, ..the CEN

was by usage corrupted to Chin-que,
and from this word the Portuguese
gave it the name OF China"
