Ways of LAWYERS,

A young attorney was accosted by
an acquaintance yesterday with the
commonplace salutation:
chow do you doP"
Gas there Is nothing to do" was
the nonchalant reply, 'sit is immaterial
as to how it is done"
"Does the depression in commercial
circles affect the law business gener-
ally for the worseP l should suppose it
would give it an impetus"
"The business is not so very bad, ex-
cept among young attorneys. Depres-
sion in business is not the sole cause
of u ill-luck. Older attorneys, and
some of them having a lucrative prac-
tice in the higher courts, are getting
in the habit of descending to Justice
courts even in matters of small &C
count. 1t is true that some older law
yers make a practice of turning over
petty suits to younger men, but they
are few
care collections from clients beoom-
ing more dif1icultp"
"Somewhat; but he is a Door lawyer
who can not collect his fee. There are
certain well-known attorneys rec ~
nized IN the profession as model law
yers, able speakers, and good counsel,
who bind their clients with a rock-rib-
bed contract. If money can not be
paid them, their chattels are accepted
in lieu. A very well known attorney
recently made it a condition of a con
tract of this kind that in case the
money was not forthcoming, then he
was to receive the seal skin sack which
his lady client wore. Others will not
take a case without what is known as
q retainer, which is nothing more than
part pay in advance. Not a few law
yers of a certain class are willing to
cases making their pay contingent
upon winning the case. Of course the
pay is commensurate with the risk,
and is usually half the amount sought
% be recovered; but 1 have known a
case In which three-fourths was allot-
ed. These, of course, are desperate
Eases which no reputable lawyer
would take, and indeed which no at
orney with but little or no reputation
IS such would touch unless constrained
o do so by the hope of winning the re-
and a peal from the bugle of
anne. "-Detrom Post.

indeed sho makes for those about Eer,
and in making them she makes hei
own. Beautiful Is the influence she
exercises over the most unpromisIng
husband-the sunshine of the little
home, where she faithfully fulflls her
missioni
"Dear madame, go on and prosper
in your work. Doubtless you have
reached many hearts beside mine,
though others may not have been so
bold as l in daring to tell you what
you have done. May God reward you
a h~undredfold for Bright Days
which has pierced the clouds and
gloom of self-seeking, self-engrossed
life, and has made me ever your
faithful, grateful friend,
'ARTHUR PIERPoINT.
P. S.-May 1 hope for one word in
reply, to show you are not angry with
me, and to tell me that you are writ
ing another book?"
after all then Bright Days was a
success" the husband said, as he re-
turned the letter. "My darling, you
should laugh and be glad, not let
tears fail on the poor baby; give her
to me-"
ooh! they are happy tears and to
think after all, that my poor little
book has not altogether failed. l
think l will begin again this
evening when all is quiet, and | will
to my unknown friend and tell
him the title of my new story shall be
Hope Fulfilled"
l think, in conclusion, I may VEN
'ure to say that /, the book-who has
iere related its W history, was not,
is not, a failure, but rather that
Hope will be fulfilled" and that
lara Cameron will be known before

Falling Half q Mile.

The greatest balloon feat I ever
witnessed, writes a correspondent in
The Rhitadelphia Times, was in Sep
TENDER, 1858. Upward of 5, 1000 peo-
pie were at Lemon Hill and alone the
banks of the Schuylkill to see M.
GODDARD go up in a balloon along with
his brother and drop the latter out
from among the clouds in a parachute.
1t is said that the feat had never been
attempted before in the history of
ballooning; it was a startling novelty,
and the people crowded to see it.
When the balloon sailed gracefully
upward outside of the inclosure Nj.
GODDARD and two friends were in the
basket, while below it NJ. +. GODDARD,
his brother, was seated upon q small
bar of wood attached to the parachute.
1t looked like an immense umbrella.
balloon went over the Schuylkill
in a southwesterly direction, and
after it had reached an altitude of
about 5000 feet began to slowly de-
scend. Then the parachute be.
gan to expand. When within about
5000 feet of the earth the cord was

the bar. The balloon shot upward
again. The descent of the parachute
keenly watched by the thousands
spectators. and many expected to
see the daring man dashed to the
earth In the twinkling of an eve. 1t
vas observed, however, that the
nearer to earth the parachute came
he descent was slow and easy. At

We learned next morning that he came
own all right on his feet, like a cat,
a half mile west of the old Bell
avern, on the Darby road. The bal

Philadelphia line. GODDARD and

eturned to their native country, and,
believe, were valuable to their IL
ymen during the Franco russian

THE PAST Is NINE

o Memory o Memory
Adown thy pa hs | love to stray.
And view, now her., some lovely flower,
Now there, a bramblc by the way.
Yor who NAV pierce, with backward glance,
The vista of the Ierished years,
And not discern some oldcn Ill
That fills the eye with bitter tearsi
With vines that trip and tLorns that wound,
The bramble well may typfy
Those errors Of impulsive youth
That cause old age the burdened sigh.
But then there comes the image fair
OF one who blessed our early days,
Whose presence seemed a spirit sent
From those WHO walk celestial ways.
The soft caress, the gentle voice,
That woocd the wcared soul to rest
Oh, hoy they thrill the elder life
Now swiftly sinking to its westl

Thy paths, though long, appear to me,
