OF the wall OF lost soul, and the tears

is no voice at all, but only the effect OF

The effect of the Cornelius March. Of

Ices and Iced Drinks.
From the London Standard

From the London Standard
Ices and iced drinks are now so
common in hot weather-from the
iced champagne with which the diner
out accompanies, and theice pudding
with which he unwisely concludes his
dinner, to the delicious ha'p'orth with
which the street boy delightfully."- cools
his tongue-that we habitually forget
the insult which a sudden lump or
draught Of freezing matter offers to
the much enduring stomach. DR.. Mu-
ter adds to his report on cheap ices g.
rider which, though often forgotten
now, was truism so years ago. "The
mere fact of the hasty consumption of
ice upon a hot day and an empty
stomach would in itself frequently
cause unpleasant results" "Unpleas-
ant results, is euphemism for what
our grandmothers and great aunts
used plainly to call sudden death. We
do not believe that in the cases with
which DR.. Muter was concerned the
sufferers were injured merely by the in
ternal chill, for it is almost Incredible
that SO many persons should have
been thus simultaneously affected by
ices from particular barrow. 1t is
also clear that in threatening us with
death as the penalty of drinking cold
water-ice was then a rare luxury
when we were hot, our grandmothers
grossly exaggerated the truth; for
since their time the use of chilled
drinks and foods has become almost
universal. even in England, but abso-
lutely so in the United States. Never
theless, there was truth in what they
said. People in America pay very
heavily in digestion and vitality for
the hasty Joy which they are perpetu-
ally snatching from draughts of water
at the freezing point, nor do we, who
follow them at very respectful dis
tance, by any means escape the penal
ties of imprudence. And the odd
thing is that cold drinks are, after all,
very Indifferent remedy for heat.
The poor Filian, in the fever Of mea-
sizes, rushes to the shore and lies down
in the cool, clear waves. His bliss for
five minutes must be exquisite, but it
is fatal. So the man addicted to iced
drinks feels for a minute--and only for
minute-that what an Irish
man calls the Sensible thirst''@ is
hunted out of every square inch of his
body. But the evil spirit returns,
bringing with it, seven. others more
clamorous than itself. For a really
cooling drink, If one will but wait five
minutes for the effect, hot tea is bet
ter than most things; and, as Anglo
Indians know, the wrist held under a
tap of running water cools more than
any sort of drink.

Jealousy Ahoat.
From the Detroit Free Press.

[From the Detroit Free Press.
On the boat going up the river the
other day was a couple ofwhom every
body soon took notice. 1t was plain
enough that they had had g. row, and
that the wife was as mad as a wet
hen. When she had taken seat the
husband walked up and down and
glowered at everybody and seemed to
murmur threats ofvengeance. On the
deck, sitting by himself, was red
shirted, big-fsted giant of 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 q
cheerful chat, explaining, however:
'My husband is terribly Jealous of
me, and | want to bother him"
t'All right, marm," replied old Her
cules. "Just chatter and chin to
your heart s content, and I'll larf and
larf and slap my leg where the APP
plause comes in."
The bold action puzzled thehusband
for a few minutes, but presently he
walked up to the pair and said to the
man:
care you an old acquaintance of
hers?"
II should remark that Twas, your
honor. KnoWed her for the last thir-
ty odd"
"H'ml Who are your"
'"They calls me William the Conker-
er when they have time; when they
don't they cut it short to Bill the
Conk. And what may yer own handle
be-"
"Humph! Mary, come with me!'
"I'm entirely comfortable" she re-
piled.
"Mary, want you!"
(Which is to remark, said William,
as he rose up, "that when lady puts
herself under my protection, and a fy
gent comes around with his chin mu-
sic, Bill the Conk is in duty bound to
protect her. Stranger, you skip"
''Sirp'
(Which is to say that you will skip
or swim %
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 handed
the lady ashore like a cavalier and
called out:
~ tumbles to the object, my lady,
and If William the Conkerer kin ever
be of assistance again jist gin me a
blast on your fog-horn and I'll be
thar till death"

Annoy ed.

1t is reported that q chairman OF one
of the Committees of the City Council
has been greatly annoyed by the con
tinuous complaints made TO him Of the
condition of affairs which he has
not been able to control, that losing all
patience the other day he seized one OF
the complainants by the nape OF the
neck, and gave him severe pummel'
ing. Now admitting that the chronic
complainant received no more than he
deserved, the chairman must have felt
afterwards that he had done wrong, and
should by all means make some apology
for his pugnaci'y.
Men occupying places of trust are
frequently annoyed hy the perversity
Of their fellow citizens, but still IL is I'M
wise and impolite in them to summarily
chastise the offenders, particularly when
they intended no insult and were only
calling attention 10 objects that affected
their convenience or well being. Blows
generally fail 10 DO good, In fact they
frequently lead TO retaliation, or an APP
peal to the law, in which case the
imposition of fire with costs is pretty
certain TO follow and in some cases i'm
prison nent.

Common dable Efforts

Instructions have been given in the
evenings the past winter, in No. y
school at Eighth and Wollsston streets,
to q class of young men who wished to
engage in the study OF mechanical
drawing and architecture. In order TO
stimulate the students 10 greater effort
to obtain prohciency, committee o.
fered six yearly tickets of the Whining
ton Institute Library as prizes. Al the
session last evening the award was
made In the presence of a number OF
our prominent citizens, who take q
deep interest in the proper training OF
the youth of our city, and this occasion
will be remembered with pleasure by
all who were present for years TO come,
and the wholesome influence exerted
over the character and career OF the
students by the proceedings will De felt
during their lives.
We cannot avoid remsrkiug how
much more proftably those young men
have been employed than were those
who pass their evenings on The corners
OF the streets, in playing billiards, pool
OF cards, OF in frequenting the theatre,
the skating rink or other places Of
amusement. Hence their literary at
tainments are Ut the most mediocre
character, and what is more they
have no desire to attain eminence in
any capacity whatever.
The time prodtlessy nassed If dc
voted to the study of any branch 81
learning would make them prof rient.
Men distinguished for knowledge have
passed their time in the studio or lab
ratory. The FrAuklins, the Morses,

Senator Bayard anu the Cabinet

The question whether Senator Bayard /
will be a member Of the Cleveland I
Cabinet Is being widely discussed.
Thus far he has kept his own counsel
and has declined TO satisfy those who
have had the impudence 10 interrogate
him in regard TO the matter Parties

not hope to reach tor long time with
