Average People.

Average people are the ballast of the
world. Notwithstanding their useful
ness, how few people are willing to be
ranked as average? How many secret
ly feel that they are beyond the limits
of that epithet. and that their acquaint-
ances are just below it. Those who
think that they have escaped the boun-
dairy line and are classed with the re-
markable people indulge in perpetual
mirage of thought, which, to them
selves, inverts their hulk of common
placeness into mast-heads of promi-
nence. We look at them through their
self-imposed atmosphere and believe
that they are above the water-line; but
the air changes, and the relative pro-
portion of their attributes is plainly
visible. 1nsignificance is never greater
than when it thinks it is just above the
average Endeavoring to avoid its
limitations it wraps itself in the rest
lessness which it supposes is the neces-
sary malady of growth. 1t hugs its
imagined headaches and heartaches,
and believes it is perpetually suffering
from an access of creative thought. of
original deeds, which, always coming,
never appears. Some men and women
are ever on an uneven race for wealth
and ambition; they are disconnected
with the restrictions of home and hui
mility; they speak with pathos of their
unfulfilled aspirations, of their weary,
large-eyei gaze at society, of the hol-
lowness of life, of the solace in enter
ior views" of the comfort in keeping
thought diaries and in interchange of
misty quotations with deep natures
searching for truth. They try to do
and be more than their mental and
physical limitations allow. The wo-
men want some loftier mission than
homework; the men something more
than clerkships. SO many win the
public school diplomas that they are
sure they can also succeed in the strug-
gle for profession, or for one of the
avenues of employment. A failure is
attributed to any other cause rather
than to mistaken self-estimate. This
desire for advancement, irrespective of
personal qualifications, is the reason
for the increasing influx of restlessness
among SO many persons.-hate Gan

Try to avoid debating with people. -

TRY to avoid debating with people"
says MIR. Sturgeon. The reverend is
correct Nothing in all this irritating
old world will make the other man lose
his head SO completely and get him so
bowling mad as for you to keep per-
fectly quiet just when you know he is
getting the better of you, and look at
him with an exasperating smile of con-
scious superiority ana pity. But you
must look out that he doesn't brain
you with table-leg.-Brooktym Eagle.
When the Empress of Austria went
to Vienna as young bride, she found
a venerable, frigid and stiff court eti-
quette with which she had no sympa
thy. Her refusal to observe it on ey-
cry occasion was severe shock to i'm
perial propriety and dignity. She went
so far as to refuse putting on new
pair of boots every day, and made mat
tiers worse by exclaiming: ..Do you
think l came here on purpose to widen
365 pairs of boots for you all every
year?"

Criminal Court to-day. They are being tried
fer conspiracy, the charge of embezzlement
On which they were arrsigned some weeks

Farther Particulars concerning the Barn
ing of the Indfan Museum at London.

ing of the IBdian Museum at London.
LONDON, June 12.-At 1880 o'clock the
roof of the burning building collapsed. For
a long time it wss feared that the flames
would extend to the buildings of the City of
London Guil6s and also to that OF the Insti-
tute &C joining. The building occupied by
the Inventors' Exhibition was for a long
time threatened with destruction, the fl ImeS
bursting through the walls separating the
Exhibition building from the Indian Mu-
scum. Nothing but the supreme energy and
strength CT the work done by the irsmsn
saved the building. The firemen piled their
axes with vigor aud quickly cleared large
spaces between the burning buildings and
those threatened by the flames. They were
thus enabled to get at the very heart OF the
fire. and to work with effect in exting gushing
the flames. Great credit is given TO visitors
to the grounds for their effective WORK in
saving the books AID exhibits. A number
OF Royal Engineers are warmly commended
for The slacritv with which they came TO the
assistance OF the firemen. The fire, il sesms.
was frst noticed on the roof of the museum,
ard il was probably caused by owe cheated
fiuss coming in contact With the wood york.
