Mrs. Whitman and the Strange
Beast.

Forty years ago or more, when the
doors of the Athenaum used to be
closed from II to o'clock, Mrs. Whit
man frequently spent those hours there
alone One summers day, when the
librarian returned from dinner, he
found Mrs. w. in state of considera-
bic excitement, which she explained by
saying that while walking up and down
the hall, as was her custom, busily
engaged in reading, she suddenly found
herself confronted by strengthening
animal, with eyes too large and ears
too long for cat. sitting up directly
in front of her and boldly looking her
in the face Somewhat startled by the
unexpected apparition it vas not
strange that she gave a little scream,
whereupon the creature quickly disap-
peared and had not been seen again.
What could it have been? She was
a little afraid that her Imagination was
growing little too active, and was
PLAYING her tricks. The librarian was
able to relieve her fears, however,
by going to a favorite hiding place of
a tame rabbit belonging to one of the
neighbors, which often slipped into the
library and around in the alcoves, and
which had come in that day unobserved
and had been locked in with Mrs.
Whitman. The poor creature was as
much frightened as Mrs. w. had been,
but they were never afraid of each
other afterward-the lady, especially,
having gained a wonderful accession
0 courage from having been able to
trighten rabbit,-ir0Utdence Journal.

Keeping Their Costumes Secret.

factors and actresses are nightly
distressed when they appear in new
role, said dramatic manager of ex-
perlence, ''lest some other actor or ac-
tress should manage to see or get de-
scription of their costume. and either
reproduce it first or else make it sub
ject of gossip in professional circles. II
isn't easy to understand their feelings
when costly costume has been bought
to find some one else reproducing it on
the stage. The dress of the actor and
actress is part of their capital. 1t is
not thought to be stealing in the pro-
fession, however, if an actress can get
the best of her sister actress by appro-
priating her ideas. The argument used
Is that If one cannot guard her profess
slonal secrets, then she had better not
go into the business. The stories of
the pains that actresses have taken to
learn what popular rival intends to
wear would fill book. To be outwit-
ted IN this way is a disgrace, and now
a-days it is rarely done. Indeed, it is
not so attractive an amusement as it
used to be, for in tirst-class theaters
actors haven't word to say about
what they shall wear. The manager
dictates every garment to be worn,
both in design and color. The reason
is that the picturesque. effects of stage
grouping are closely studied, and an
effort Is made to present at every new
situation new picture to the eye-a
picture that might be model in every
way for painting. In the matter of
color the tone is carefully studied, and
all the tints in walls, carpets, furniture,
and dress are selected according to the
laws of harmony or of contrast.
''ln minstrel or variety perform
ances, however, such nicely cannot be
cf use, and performers select whatever
they please for a costume. Where they
get their clothing made is a mystery.
If by accident you should learn the ad-
dress, and should ask the milliner. or
dressmaker, or tailor, or shoemaker for
whom the bonnet. or dress or suit or
shoes are being made, YOU would be
met by the polite and firm reply that
the gentleman or lady who left the or
der requested that it should be kept
secret. At dress rehearsals where per-
formers are required to appear as they
propose TO perform on first nights, the
actress will often appear in street cos
tune, and put in excuses, sometimes
plausible, often absurd. to account for
the omission. Some popular singers
and actresses | know, whose dresses
are admired, have resorted to learning
the knack of dressmaking. so that they
may be sure that their secret is safe.
To their friends they say that those
dressmakers are so unreliable that
they, the actresses, were driven to
making their own costumes. They
have been held to be weak and foolish
for being jealous of each other,' added
the manager, but it seems to me that
if they are. they are to be excused by
the public. ~ y. iSun.

The bookstore Keeper.

A bookstore ought, in sense, to be
public library. 1t ought to be a sort
of intellectual headquarters and start
inc point. Ii should bestow its bene-
fits upon the community in which it
stands, and that community should re-
gard it as something worthy of pride
as we'll as of support. Its proprietor
is, of course a business man, who wants
to make money. But the higher his
idea of his functions, the more money
he ought to make. More intelligence is
needed in the reading of books than in
cobbling shoes or weighing sugar. He
should be the right-hand man to the
minister the editor, the school-teacher.
the lawyer, the physician. He should
take counsel of the educated and we'll
to-do classes in the community; and
should put on his shelves the books
they want, and should welcome them
to his place of business. He is himself
a teacher and preacher, whose moral
and intellectual influence makes his
business an ethical as well as a COM
mercial one. He has high calling"
and ought to take becoming pride
in it. If he sells paper-hangings, sta
tionery, bronzes and knick-knacks he
should remember that these, however
remunerative, are but side-shows. If
he covers his windows with flash. IL
lustrated journals or staring litho-
graphs he shows that he has no conf
dence in the intellectual part of the
town and no power to make himself
attractive to it. Is it all mere mat
ter of profit? By no means; but if it
were more money as well as more rep
utation is to be got by working
for the best and wisest and well-to-do
classes than for the Saturday night pur-
chasers of the story papers.

''Do you know" said an old resident
to reporter, 1.-The significance of touch
ing glasses and wishing each other
good health?"

said the gentleman laughing. ut is a
relic of barbarous custom-of feudal
times. 1t had its origin in the times
long before the Inauguration of the
knights of the Round Table.
ITO come back to the original sub
ject,n he resumed, 1.-The reason why
men clink glasses is a remembrance of
the five senses. That sounds odd,
doesn't it? Well, I'll explain to you.
You see, l touch my glass to yours;
they give out sound-that's hearing,
one sense. You see the glasses in your
and my hand; that's the sense of see
ing. You feel the glasses vibrate I'M
der the touch; that's sense No. 3. Then
you touch it to your lips, at the same
time smelling the liquid it contains.
Then you crafty two senses-tasting g
and smelling, and then you have your
five senses-hearing seeing, feeling,
tasting, smelling. Now, you never
thought of that before, did you?" said
the old gentleman with a smile of de-
light at the reporters look of astonish-
ment.

The Better Kind OF Gossip,

l say l hate a malicious gossip. But
there is sort of gossip | like-the in
nocent, entertaining sort, who talks to
me when care to hear, about people
whom his tattle does not harm. or
whose chat is too inclusive for personal
mention, or who refers to persons
whom he does not name. in a spirit of
criticism not severe enough to con-
denim, but just enough to profit. You
see I'm a tattler myself-by name
and think it no harm to indulge in
tittle-tattle of this impersonal kind oc-
casionally-growing more confidential,
let it be understood, as the talk grows
more pointed in application fault
such talk inclines to-and not offended
if my auditory turn aside at times
little bored or may be more indignant.

Tree-Planting.

In recent address, Pres. B. G. Nor
throp, of Connecticut, said: "A brief
history of Arbor day will show its aims
and results. The plan originated with
Ex-Governor j. Sterling Morton. the pi-
oneer tree-planter of Nebraska. He
secured the cooperation Of the state
board of agriculture some twelve years
ago, when the governor was thus in
duced to appoint the second Wednes-
day in April as day to be devoted to
the economic tree-planting. The old
theory that trees would not thrive in
the ''Great American Desert had
formerly discouraged tree-planting By
pen and tongue, with arguments from
theory and facts from his own practice,
Mr. Morton succeeded in creating great
popular interest in this work, in which
he was ably seconded by Ex-Governor
Furnas, who has long served the United
States department of agriculture in the
interest offorestry. Ilately examined the
groves on Mr.. Morton estate, in which
black walnut abounds, growing from
nuts planted by him in 1855 and 1866.
The circumference of one of those
planted twenty years ago, three feet
eiOONC lAS SIOuuN. IS lOuI ltCI anu luIet
inches, and the girt of one eighteen
years old is two feet and three inches
four feet from the earth, and its height
is twenty-five feet.
As an experiment have just planted
personally and by proxy in Clinton and
vicinity about $50 nuts grown on these
trees this year. The experience of tree
planters in Nebraska favors planting
the nuts and the seeds of all tap-root
trees where they are to grow. For
forest planting in that state. the black
walnut takes the lead of all hard woods
A general and remarkable interest was
awakened in Nebraska in the oDsery-
ance of her first Arbor day, and it is
said that over $4,000, 600 trees were
planted on that day. This enthusiasm
was not temporary etferyescence.
Each successive governor has continued
thus to recognize this day. The inter-
est has been sustained and increased.
The State board OF agriculture annual
ly awards liberal prizes for the greatest
number of trees planted by any one
person on that day, as well as prizes
to those who plant the largest number
during the year. Hence, Nebraska is
the banner state of America for eco
nomical tree-planting, having, accord
ing to the reports from the several
counties, as | am informed by ex-Gog-
ernor Furnas, PA, $50 acres of cult
waited woodland, or more than twice
that of any other state.
1t is not strange that the originator
of arbor day should be recognized as a
public benefactor, nor that, during the
last campaign, when party lines were
so closely drawn, as 4 candidate for
Governor he ran some three thousand
ahead of his party ticket. Though at
first aiming at economic tree-planting,
Nebraska now observes ..Arbor day in
schools, and the schools were last
year invited to plant memorial trees"
The example of Nebraska was soon
followed by Kansas, which claims over
$4,000 acres of planted woodland.
The governors of that state issue annu-
al proclamations for Arbor day, and it
is now observed by teachers and schol-
ars in adorning school-grounds and
homes

The Love of Praise.

1t is an instinct as much as con-
science. 1t is an organic faculty as
much as the reasoning faculty is. 1t is
just as much a part of our structural
existonco as tho heart is, or the lunrs
are to the body. 1t is a counterpart
and balance of that which we call
pride. But the word pride is offensive
and usually conveys the idea of an i'm
proper feeling. 1t is the conscious
value of ones self. 1t is the sense of
individual rights, ones personality, the
inherent right to be what we are, self
estimation. To be sure you have a
right to your own judgment and per-
sonality, but these men have a right to
judge you. and what they think you do
well they praise you for, and you have
that in you which makes praise very
sweet. SO there are these two quail
ties, one preserving the individuality
of a man in all his rights; the other
making him sensitive to the reflected
influences of those around him.-Hen-
ri Ward Beecher

The diameter of trees varies not only
from summer to winter, but from day
to day. They are larger from noon to
twilight the next morning than from
twilight until noon they are smaller
in the winter than in summer. Water
and the sap of trees expand not only in
proportion as they rise above, but also
as they go below the freezing point
Low temperature as well high pro-
notes evaporation, and the trees evapo-
rate from their branches in winter, and
so the colder the weather the more
they shrink.
