Good Advice to Country Boys.

y y
From the New York Herald.
Every man who lives in New York
and has acquaintances in the rural dis
tricts knows that the majority of
country boys and young. men think
that the golden opportunity Of. lite is
a chance to enter business in a large
city. 1t is also a fact that country
boys who come to the city arereason-
ably sure to wear away the best years
OF their lives before they realize that
they would have succeeded better had
they remained at home. The follow
ing bit OF advice, which the Nashville
American offers, is worth preserving
Tor use in cases of special application:
1ntel]1gent boys in the country,
however poor, should take comfort.
Let them consider their present hard
ships as q gymnasium for the develop
ment OF their many qualities of mind
and body. Let them practice indus
try and honesty, acquire knowledge,
cultivate decision of character, suffer
patiently and endure cheerfully priva-
tions and self-denial, labor with a sim
geness Of purpose and strengthen their
characters by winning success in every
undertaking, however small. Let them
cultivate habits of Thrift, economy and
persistency, and their time OF influence
and power will come-come as surely
ns effects follow cause, as wealth fol-
lows prudence and industry, as intel
li5ence follows inquiry, as light follows
Darkness

A BarbarOuS Prejudice.

Providence journal.
The fact is at last made public on
celiable authority that the refusal to
receive Mr.. Kelley by the Austrian
court was that Mrs. Kelley was jew
ass, it being one Of the traditional
rules OF Austrian imperial etiquette
shat no one of Semitic blood should
be admitted within the sacred pre-
cincts OF the court. 1t would seem in
credible that this barbaric bigotry
could prevail in a civilized country in
the nineteenth century, and the case
is one which republican feeling and ma
tional dignity should compel us to
resent. We can get along very we'll
without e. representative to the court
Of Austria or one from Austria here,
and no such silly restriction should
be allowed to stand in the way of an
otherwise unobjectionable appoint
ment. We have not been greatly inn
pressed in favor of Mr.. Kelley, but the
matter is now a question OF national
Self-respect.

distant some ninety miles from this city, on

Electricity III the Aenagerie.


Nearly every day some new use is
found for electricity, and one of the
most recent applications of this power
is in the interests of the professional
tanners of wild animals, says an ex-
change. The inventor is tanner
himself, and his instrument is an ap-
paratus shaped like stick and highly
charged with electricity. When the
animals become unruly he gives them
a shock from this battery. and the
effects are said to be instantaneous.
On experiment, three of his lions
Immediately showed signs ofthe great
est terror. They were seized with
trembling and growied ftfully. The
tiger was more quickly subdued, be-
came stupeied and erouched IN a cor
ner Of the cage. Bruin was more re-
fractory to the electriclty, which
seemed scarcely to affect him. He
would growl and show his teeth, but
was subdued after repeated dis
charges. .5.s h.
The most astonishing effects. how
ever, were perceptlble in the boa con-
strictor. On receiving the discharge
the specimen from Cayenne, nearly
twenty feet in length, became at once
paralyzed and remained motionless
for six hours afterWard. When he re-
covered he showed signs Of helpless
ness for three whole days. Finally the
elephant on being electrified by Z touch
of the stick upon the tip Of his trunk.
set up q series Of wild crles, and be-
came 10 frantic that the tamer feared
he would break his heavy iron chains.

jealousy AfOat,

On tho boat going up the river the
other day was a couple OF whom every
body soon took notice. 1t was plain
enough that they had had a row, and
that the wife was mad as wet hen.
When she had taken seat the hus-
band walked up and down and glow
cred at rybody and seemed to muir
mur threats of vengeance. On the
deck, sitting by himself, was red
shirted, b!g-fsted giant of a chap
about 40 years of age. Presently the
woman gathered up her parcels and
walked over. and shook his hand and
sat down beside him and began a
tcbeerful chat, explaining, however:
my husband is terribly jealous of
me, and l want to bother him.
"All right, marm," replied old Her.
cules. "Just chatter and chin till yer
hearts content, and I'll larf and larf
and slap my Leg where the applause
should come in.
r he bold action puzzled the husband
for few minutes, but presently he
walked up to the PAIR and said to the
man:
Are you an old acquaintance of
hersp"
II should remark that was, your
Honor. Knowed her fur the last thirty
odd.''
HIN! Who are you?'
"rhey calls me William the Conk-
erer when they have time; when they
don't they cut it short to Bill the Conk.
And what may yer own handle be7''
''Humph! Mary, come with metz
''rm entirely comfortable" she re
piled.
"Mary, I want you!'
(which is to remark" said William
as he rose up, ''that when lady puts
herself under my protection, and a fly
gent comes around with his chin
music. Bill the Conk is in duty bound
to protect her. Stranger, you skip!'
.'Sir!'
(Which is to say that you will skip
or swlmr' -.
William reached out, but the hus-
band retreated and sat down at safe
distance, and for two long hours he
must have suffered torture. The wife
chatted, William slapped his leg and
the passengers winked; and as the
couple landed at one of the club
houses the man in the red shirt landed
the lady ashore like a cavalier and
called out:
81 tumbles to the object, me lady,
and if William the Conkerer kin ever
be of assistance again jist gin ME a
blast on your foghorn and I'll be thar
till death. "-DetroI Free Press. =
