Some imaginative and wonderfully

every snowflake is inhabited by happy
little beings, who begin their existence,

piness and delight, die and are buried,
all during the descent of the snowflake

every square foot of air possesses from
twelve to fifteen million of more or
less perfect little beings, and that at

suhjection to Caprices the Basest Servituds
Of Man.
Subsection to moods is the mark of q
deteriorating morality. There is no
baser servitude than that of the man
whose caprices are his master, and q
nation composed of such men could not
long preserve its liberties. This is q
truth that the young must lay to heart.
1t will be q sorry day for this world,
and all the people in it, when every
body makes his moods his masters, and
does nothing but what he is inclined to
do. The need of training the will to
the performance of work that is dis
tasteful; of making the impulses serve
instead Of allowing them to rule the
higher reason; Of subjugating the
moods instead of being subjugated by
them. lies at the very foundation of
character. 1t is possible to learn to
fix the wandering thought, to compel
the reluctant mental energy, to conse-
crate the power upon the performance
of task to which there is no inclina-
ton. Until this victory has been
gained, life holds no sure promise; the
achievement of this conquest is the
condition of future success. No mat

KING LEOPOLD.
How the Monarch OF the Belgians Appears
on the Promenade.

How the Monarch OF the Belsians Appears
on the Promenade.
Leopold is one of the most demo-
cratic of Kings. He saunters about
Brussels in the most leisurely way, and
is as familiar figure on the Rue Roy
ale or du Midi as President Grant used
to be on Pennsylvania avenue. He is
fully six feet tall, has an angular form
and an awkward manner, and one day
when saw him on the Rue du Midi he
had the govt so bad that he hobbled
along in anything but kingly fashion.
He has dark complexion, wears a full
sandy beard that is long and tinged
with gray, and his small eyes are 80
close together that there is scarcely
space for his big Roman nose between
them. Here is the dress which Leo
pold thinks the proper one for Kings
street wear: A coat of dark blue
broadcloth, cut in the style of Nor
folk jacket, and trousers of the same
material, but shade or two lighter in
color. In all the seams Of both coat
and trousers was set q small gold cord;
boots of heavy calfskin, with soles
fully half inch thick. cap similar to
that worn by an American army
private, with q miniature gold lion Of
Brsbant over the forepiece, and gold
bowed eyeglasses with . pendant
chain. A heavy cane was held in .
hand whose third finger was encircled
by gold ring that bore the square,
compass and letter G Of the Masonic
order, set In diminutive diamonds.
His only attendants were two portly
middle-aged gentlemen. elegantly
dressed In black broadcloth and fne
linen. who walked . few feet behind
the King. snd who occasionally sn.

The Wonderful Rapidly with which
These Little Creatures Are Increased.
The prevalence of these little lice on
the foliage of plants is source of great
annoyance to every lover of flowers.

resorted to in the living room. q weak
solution of tobacco-water may be used.
either by Swinging or sponging the
leaves and young shoots. CONNER
cial florists understand the necessity
of destroying them early, consequently
fumigation is resorted to at regular in
tervals of say every two weeks or less,
whether the ''green fly" be observed or
not.
The wonderful rapidity with which
these little creatures are increased
seems almost incredible. According to
Alphonse Karr, the observing French
naturalist. one of them will produce
nearly twenty young in the course Of
day; that is to say, a volume ten or
twelve times equal to its own body. A
single aphis which, at the beginning Of
the warm weather would bring into the
world ninety aphides, which ninety,
twelve days after, would each produce
ninety more, would be, in the fifth gem

you must take me up to the Presidents

always very affectionate, Ego to the
White House on such day as this,
with the wind blowing a regular liz
ard? Why, you'll take a cold. and 90
into the consummation!"
Well, to make q short matter long.
we hired one of those Herdic cabs, and
set out for the Executive Mention.
We drove up past the Capitol. and
saw some men on the steps. guess they
were some of those capitalists that our
Congressman says are lesgued with q
venial press to destroy the rights of the
people.
The White House was pretty enough
but looked kind of bare. think lit

improve its appearance.

carte de Ufsite, please" says he.
"There it is" replied. pointing to the
Herdic. He explained that he wanted
a calling card, and we learned that the
public deception didn't begin for two
hours.
.ome gentlemen were standing on
the steps, and the man told us one of
them was Secretary Lamar of the De-
partment of the Inferior.
We waited for the President to come.
In the meantime, and very mean time
it was, almost took suggestive chill.
At last the people began to move into
o door at the left. "Now remember,
my DEAR" says John, ''you are about
to meet a man who yields more power
than the King of the Trojans. or the
Grand Khan of Tartarus.
We took our place in the line of peo-
pie, and moved into the east room, and
there we saw President Cleveland. He
smiled pleasantly and seemed to enjoy
himself very much.
i can't describe the munificence Of
that room, or the pretty bric-a-bat, and
articles of virtue we saw there.
1t began to get very mountainous
standing in line, but at last John came
to the President, and shook his hand,
and passed on.
The people didn't seem to take much
interest in Mr.. Cleveland, but passed
on after shaking hands, which didn't
seem very polite. He was very glad to
see me. Happy to see you, MIR. Pres
ident," says /. please give my love
to Miss Cleveland. He smiled again
and stretched out his hand to the per-
son behind me, who must have been an
old friend, from the Presidents man.

Mrs. Hoyt as / intended. I hope he
didn't think it rude.
WASN'T much scared, though John
told me i looked as pale as aspectrum.

would call again in the evening he said
had better wait till Wednesday after
noon, as the President would have

THE Tammany Hall Democrats OF
New York have rendered the Demo-
cratic nomination for mayor to Hon.
Abram Hewitt. Probably that was
not an unexpected compliment, and
accounts for Mr.. Hewitts declination
to stand for congress again. Should
Mr.. Hewitt accept and the merchants
and professional classes generally sup
port him, the issue between capital
and labor would be fairly joined in
the New York municipal contest. Mr..
George. the labor candidate, is repre-
sentative man, and Mr.. Hewitt is him
self a merchant, and has long been rec
ognizcd in congress as representative
of the business interests of New York
City. 1t is exceedingly unfortunate
for the country that such divisions in
politics should be recognized. 1t tends
to widen the breach between classes
and array one part Of the people
against another, when in fact every
citizen is interested in the prosperity
of every other citizen.

AN exciting game of base ball was
played at Gilmore, Pa, the other day
between married and single ladies
Only seven innings were played and
the gate money went to the church.
The players wore long dresses, and
the married ladies won by score of
25 to 10, which about represents the
difference between married and single
life anyway, and also teaches the very
important lesson to young ladies that
if they would win, they must get mar
ricd.
