The Laudable Act of Humanity Performed
by the German Crown Princess.
The German Crown Princess has done
very laudable act of practical human
ity in opening at her husbands estate Of
bomsted, near Potsdam, a kindergarten
for the children of the farm-laborers of
the estate. Here the little ones find
shelter, food and tuition while their
parents are working in the fields. The
institution is built latter the fashion of
English workingmen's houses, and con-
tains sitting or working room, q
kitchen, a large sleeping apartment and
q very large garden, with playground.
The children are brought to the institu-
ton at six o'clock in the morning and
stay till nine in the evening, the larger
part of the time being given to play and
rest. In the morning they are made to
work in the garden FOR three-quarters of
an hour, and in the evening for two
hours and half, each child being given
q separate place of garden land to take
care OF 1t Is also permitted to take home
the crop raised. During the forenoon
and afternoon the children are taught.
for about two hours, drawing. plating
and similar handiwork. After dinner
they are put to sleep for two hours. as
also Tor short time after they arrive in
the morning. An old matron takes
care OF the babies, for whom separate
spot OF the garden nearest to the house
and full OF shade-trees has been SET
aside. The Princess is daily visitor at
the institution, and looks to it that .be
little ones are well taken care of.-CI;.

1t Is Girl Nature

Now the propensity for wading which
is deeply implanted in the female bosom
is inexplcable. Unless girl has the
influenza or bunon she can not resist
the temptation to paddle about in the
salt water and get her clothing uncom-
fortably wet. This is,a subject full OF
interest to me from the casting aside Of
the shoes and stockigns to their resump-
tion- 1t is fact pretty generally
known in male circles that lies, prefer
sitting on the ground when pulling on
and off their stockings to occupying
chair or bench. But having my doubts
as to the inHexibility of this rule had
determined to convince myself by ex-
pertinent After the setting OF my
traps-to wit: the benches--I had not
long to wait. A bevy of young ladies.
one or two of whom recognized, came
trooping down the beach. chatting and
laughing merrily. They evidently won

edly happy. L was rejoiced at having
dlsprovcd moIdy theory, but alas, my
satisfaction was short-lived. When my
guests made up their minds that it was
time to wade they sprang from the
benches. sat on the beach,. and tugged
away at shoes and stockings in the Old.
fashion. The following day. resolving
to give my experiment every chance, 1
had my hireling bathmam strew a guam
tity of broken bottles. empty oyster
cans, and rubbish of various kinds,
along the beach and sat under nv um-
brella and watched. The girls came
down about the same hour, seemed a
little dismayed at first, but rallying set
to work industriously,. and soon had a
clear space upon which they squatted,
not taking the least notice of the
benches this time. Then l put up, my

Arrived there. entered the dining

"What do you have for dinner?"
Twenty minutes" was the hurried

scratched his head, trying to compre-

Girls Discussing Soldiers.
Che following conversation was over.

The following conversation was over
heard in hotel at Weldon, N. c.:
Two young girls were chatting on a
sofa, unconsciously drawing the atten-
ton of the crowd in the room to their
conversation. Said one:
.'Selena is going to marry Lieutenant
T. after all. You know she had broken
her engagement with him. But he lost
leg at the battle of Manassas, and
what does she do but take the hero into
her favor again. l could not marry
anyone who was not a whole man.
Could you?"
Yes exclaimed the other. 'If
there was just enough left of his body
to hold his soul. I'd marry him if /
loved himi''
The applause that followed this
speech was tremendous The soldiers
sprang from their seats and vented
their feelings in loud huzzas, while the
landlord and attendants rushed into the
room to see if the yankees were
whipped.

A Pleasant Pastime.

Promcnading was indulged in very
extensively, Notwithstanding the dust.
The fashion there is now for the gen
tlemen to put their arms tightly around
the ladies. which does not look lady
like and should be abandoned. The at
tention of many were attracted to the
promenading Of two ministers of the
Wilmington conference. who passed
round and round apparently so much
engaged that they did not think Of their
example. This was done while the
meeting was going on at the altar. One
OF these ministers did exhibit y comical
appearance. with his slo,lch hat on the
back of his head while he had his arms
entwined around two, ladies. WI

From certain meteorological sta
tistics recently published in Germany
We learn that thunder-storms in that
country have, during the last thirty
years. been steadily increasing, both in
frequency and seYerity. The number
of deaths per annum from lightning
has increased in far greater ratio
than that of the increase Of population.
In the present state of our knowledge
of the whole subject Of atmospheric
electricity, the cause of the phenomena
Of thunder-storms is confessedly OBJ.
ascure. 1t is, however, very possible
that some light would be thrown upon
the question by comparative study Of
the frequence and severity of storms
during alengthepe ed perios and over a
wide geographical area The German
saSants incline to the opinion that the
increase is to be attributed to the enor-
monsiy increased production of smoke
and steam which has taken place dur
ing tie last three decades. But al
though we may admit this to be to some
extent probable ver1 causd, yet when
we consider the very local character of
fhunder-storms, we should naturally
expect to find that it would follow that
the neighborhoods Of large cities, and
especially of manufacturing districts.
would suffer the most severely. But
the statistics referred to show distinct
lily that the very reverse is the case.
The number of storms attended by
fatal results from lightning is far larger
in the agricultural districts than in the
towns. Upon the other hand, we ought
TO take into conside alton the protective
action Of lightning conductors with
which the prominsnt buildings In the
towns q Germany sre we'll provided.
