The Thieves of Paris.

The lowest in the scale is the Pcgriot.
the apprentice thief who seeks to carr
promotion by successful operations in the
lower walks of his profession. High
above him towers the Haute Pegre, the
French slang phrase for "high art" the
ne plus ultra OF the business, the fash.
ionabe thief, attired in patent leather
boots and white necktie. lie is generally
young, and possesses the airs and man
ners of perfect gentleman. His sphere
of operations is to be found in the stalls
or front seats of the balcony at the the.
atre, and he never dimes at any but the
best restaurants on the boulevard. The
masters of the IIaute Pegre would deem
it an insult to be mentioned in the same
breath with the Poivricrs, whose sole oc.
cupation it is to rob drunken persons, or
with the Roulers or Rouletiers who plum.
der the lurrics and railway tracks. The
Charrieurs chiefly practice their device:
on unsuspccting country people, frequent
ly resort to the confidence trick, the three
card trick, etc. The pickpockets are sub.
divided into FOurlineurs. and Tiraineurs.
The latter are for the most part poorly
clad, and find their victims among the
groups of people stationed round the
rope dancers, ballad singers or other
strolling performers. The Fcurlneur is
always respectfully dressed. and frequents
fashionable thoroughfarcs and promen-
AIDES He is armed with a fancheux, or
strong, fiat pair of shears for cutting of
gold watch guards. Among the ordi
nary feats of this class we may instance
the vol a la recontre which consists in
suddenly running up against n gentle
man in the street. as if by accident, and,
with incredible rapidity relieving him of
his watch and chain, which are at once
handed over to an accomplice, who
makes off with the booty while the thief
is profuse in apologies for his careless
ness. If the robbery is discovered he in
dignantly demands to be searched on
the spot, and, as of course the stolen
property is not found on him, the scene
usually ends with the victim asking the
thief's pardon. The cleverest of these
pickpockets, the "King of the Fourlin-
eurs," Mimi Previl, a Partisan by birth,
not long since ended his days in the
Bagno at Brest. - Chroneb der Zeu.

The Sleep Of Children.

This is scarcely secondary matter to
food and dress. We know how few days
one can retain their reason or life if sleep
be utterly prevented. There are fearful
old tales of deaths from this torture
alone.
Firstly, children, at least nervous
child, should sleep alone. Its stronger
bcdfellow draws upon its strength in
some as yet unexplained manner, and
one will be too hot and the other too
cold with the same blankets.
An aged or a weary person also ex-
hausts the vitality Of child. In most
elegant homes we sec the double beds
being replaced by two single ones, side
by side. The change has wrought in
credible marvels in the health and tenn
per of children.
Again. all children and most adults
should have beds which yield to the
body. Children are much more likely
to suffer in this regard, their prcttiest
cradles and cribs often having slat or
stiff wicker bottoms which would make
even our stronger muscles ache. Twice
as long sleeps would they take and wake
smiling, did we give them the most clas-
tic woven spiral wire with not too
heavy a bed atop. The old fashioned
cord -bottomed bedsteads were poorly re-
placed by any Stats or cheap springs; or
the light stir-up-abl straw beds by
their modern substitutes of moss, cotton
excelsior or indeed tied mattresses of
any sort except curled h@ir. The Eng
fish have followed none of these cheap
fashions of misery, aud, indeed, every
thrifty English, Irish, German or Scan
dinavian girl emigrant used to bring her
feather bed, knowing that a bed must
yield TO support all parts of the body to
rest it.
A hair mattress in two parts weighing
little more than thirty pounds, over a
feather bed on woven wire mattress is
the ideal bed. The single wire mattress
costs but three dollars, and with merely
comforter is better than the average
childrens bed.
A nice cradle or crib bottom can be
made Of piece of the woven wire
tackled on, or Of elastic webbing tackled
across at distances of four inches. If
beds are not yielding, children will lie
on their backs, heating them much more
than is feared in a soft bed. If the cloth
ing is fifty loosened and removed, as
should be even in day maps, the longer
maps and the freedom from taking cold
through perspired clothing when awak-
ened viii amply compensate in time for
the few minutes spent. IraecLer.

WISE WORDS.
The best mind cure il TO make II

The best mind cure is to make up
ones mind to be contented.
Many people mistake stubbornness for
bravery, meanncss for economy and
vileness for wit.
The harvest gathered in the fields of
the past is to be brought home for the
use of the present.
The misery of illness is nearly mani.
fest in high life as in the rags and filth
of extreme poverty.
Promises made in the time OF aillic-
ton require a better memory than peo-
pie commonly possess.
History that is good, faithful and true
will survive for ages; but should it have
none of these qualities, its passage will
be short between the cradle and the
grave.
The most positive men are the most
credulous, since they most believe them
selves, and advise most with their falsest
flatterer and worst encmy-their own
self love.
Depression of spirits, when it is real
and when people cannot help it, is not
the result of circumstances, but, in
ninety nlnc cases out OF Il nundrcu from
dyspepsia or from a discordant liver
in short, from bodily causes.
To tell what man says, pay attention
to the tongue. TO ascertain what he
means, pay attention to the eye. To
talk in opposition to the heart is one of
the easiest things in the world; to look
this opposition is more difficult than
algebra.
We may be pretty certain that persons
whom all the world treat i'll entirely de-
serve the treatment they get. The world
is a looking glass, and gives back to
every man the reflection Of his own face /;
frown at it, and it will in turn look
sourly upon you; laugh ut it and with it,
and it is a Jolly companion; and SO let
young people take their choice.
Suspension of judgment at certain
times should be scdulously cultivated.
When we remember how frequently
complex conditions are involved, and
how difficult it is to understand and APP
preciatc those conditions and to accord
to each its proportionatc value, we may
well pause and reflect before committing
ourselves to judgments which may prove
to be wrong.

The Human Figure.

The proportions of the human figure
are six times the length of the feet.
Whether the form is slender or plump,
the rale holds good; any deviation from
it is a departure from the highest beauty
in proportion. The Greeks make all
their statues according to this rule. The
face, from the highest point of the fore
head, where the hair begins to the chin,
is one tenth of the whole stature. The
hand, from the wrist to the middle
finger, is the same. From the top of the
highest point of the forehead is a
seventh. If the face, from the roots of
the hair to the chin, be divided into
three equal parts, the first division de-
termines the place where the eyebrows
meet, and the second the place of the
noslrils. The height from the feet to the
top of the head is the distance from the
extremity OF the fingers when the arms
are extended.

A Bear Ridden Like n Horse.

People living in the neighborhood of
now Chinatown witnessed novel S; CHIT
yesterday, when a Chinaman went gal
Looping along the streets on the back of
monster bear, which was going at
pretty lively rate. Old Bruin was brdled
and saddled in regular fashion, and his
slant-eyed rider wore a heavy pair of
spurs. The rider and his steed halted
in the main street OF the Chinese quar-
tiers, and the bear was led through one
of the stores back into little shed.
Learning of the curious riding animal, a
Chronicle representative went to new
Chinatown to see it and the rider. The
bear was found TO be of the black spe-
ces, and was regular Jumbo in size,
standing nearly as high as cow. In
conversation with the owner, it was
learned that he had captured his bear
when ii was small cub; that he carried
it to his cabin, cared for it tenderly, and
when it grew large enough he trained it
TO draw small wagon and to perform
numerous tricks. The bear has always
been well treated, and runs about as it
pleases; but always returns to its master
when called, Just as an intelligent dog
would. When the bear became strong,
the Chinaman began riding him, and
never had any trouble. He now rides
him whenever he goes hunting and fish
ing, and finds the brute better COM
panion than Il dog, for he will go into
water and bring out game, or carry to
his owner ducks or quails he had killed
