Frogs in Winter.

Among the many creatures that
sleep in the winter are the frogs, with
their two very long hind legs, short
fore legs, and with big black eyes on
each side of their very big mouths.
When the cold days come, and the
water begins to freeze in the pond,
the frogs know that it is time to 60 to
bed for all winter. Down they 60,
and their families with them, to the
bottom; then they begin to dig with
their long hind feet into the soft mud.
They work themselves down into their
beds backward, until at last they are
covered under the mud, all except the
tips of their noses. There they 90 to
sleep. After awhile they have an ice
spread over them and they can sleep
safely all winter. They do not get
hungry all this time.
After awhile spring Gomez. and the
sun grows bright and warm. Jack
Frost carries away their covering, and
old Father Frog begins to push his
nose up out of the mud until his ears
are uncovered. Then he nudges Moth
er Frog. "Wake up!' he says. Don't
you hear every body busy up there?'
And oh! how sleepy she is, poor thing!
But he had tried the water aud found
it warm. and they must not rest any
longer.
By this time the young frogs are
awake, and with a sudden push they
60 like streak through the water.
Pretty soon all around the edges of the
pond you can hear the "Peep, peep"
that tells us spring has come. Mrs. g..

He. whose affections and bereavements

good, may well adopt the words of the
Psalmist, and say in respect to himself:
1T is good for me that have been

that man. God chose him sin the

The Influence of Fathers and Mothers in
Forming the Character Of Their Chill
dren.
Happy are the fathers who take their
sons into companionship, and happy
are the sons that are so treated from
their childhood up. We know a f.
ther who has three sons, and who, not
liking to let them play in childhood
with the kind of boys around them.
played with them himself in their
childish amusements. Two of these
sons are successful ministers of the
Gospel, and one publisher Of religious
books.
Another father we know who took
his boys and their cousins long walks
to see beautiful scenery, or accompa-
MED them on fishing excursions. How
much those boys learned about trees,
flowers, animals and fishes, and how
much health and pleasure they gained,
can not be estimated, but they are now
in good health, several years beyond
threescore and ten. That father
watched the young ideas" and in
sweet-toned lessons and confidential
advices taught those ideas how ito
shoot"
Another father made his son his close
companion. They were almost always
together, and when one had to 60 on
some business-journey, the other would
invariably 60 with him to the convey
ance and kiss him at parting, if it were
only for day. Such another exem.
plary son we never knew.
We have known many fathers who
paid no attention to their sons, but al
lowed them to 60 with any company
they chose, without warning or advice,
and whose teachings by example were
how to drink, smoke, swear, etc. The
almost certain ruin of sons so treated
we have very often seen and deplored
Generally speaking, it is the mother
who has the training of her boys as
well as girls, and it is owing, in a
great measure. to the good or bad
foundation she lays for character that
the children turn out we'll or i'll. Think
of that, mothers! Are your sons polite
little gentlemen, who can not tell lie
without weeping over it, and confess
ing it to the kind, sympathetic
mother, and receiving her gentle coun-
sci and encouragement to resist in
future the temptations of Satanp 1t is
from the mothers lips that "the sweet
story of old" makes the deepest i'm
preston in early childhood. and so on
to manhood. Should the mother, how
ever, be taken away, the father can
make himself an excellent substitute,
as was the case in the second example
of good father.
Fathers and mothers who read this,
are you keeping the precious gardens
of your children's souls free from
weeds, and for that purpose filling
them with beautiful flowers to be
gathered from the Scriptures and good
books and papersP-M Y. Witness.

A BARBAROUS FASHION,

A Style OF Cruelty Which Girls May Do
eide Against and Render Improbable.
lwish | could persuade you, dear
girls, never to wear bird on your hat,
nor even bright wing to set off your
rosy cheeks. If you realized how the
cruelty of fashion which trims ladies'
bonnets with song-birds is robbing the
groves and woods of their music; if YOU
thought of the fact that in many locali-
ties price is set on the little feathered
beauties, that they are trapped by the
thousands and sometimes actually
skinned alive, that their plumage may
look the richer for your adornment,
you could not wear a bird at such
price.
Once l had lovely fan of swans
down, with robin red-breast mount
ed on the center. The robin, stuffed in a
very life-like manner, and with his lit
tie mouth open, seemed just ready to
sing. and. the fan having been gift,
l kept it as a parlor ornament with
some pride. One day tender-hearted
baby girl, three years old, was looking
at my fan, when suddenly the little
lips quivered and the brown eyes filed
with tears. ! wondered a moment at
the grieving look, and was very much
touched when the little one said: Poor
birdie! The last song came froo here!"
pointing with her tiny finger at the
open bill.
When we think what glad, buoyant
life birds life is, and remember the
sweetness the birds bring to our homes,
the melody they make in the morning,
the sweethaunting vespers which dream
away and faint in silence in the sum.
mer dusk, we can not feel happy in re-
fecting that for caprice of fashion
the song-birds are murdered by whole
sale.
Do not forget that you as an individ.
ual, Kate, Allie, Grace, Mabel, Emile,
can do something to make this barbar.
GUS style thing of the past. Refuse
to adorn yourself with dead bird.
The power of the unit is never more
visibly shown than in quiet persist
ence in doing right and making &
wrong unpopular. If girls decide
against it this style of cruelty will
cease to be profitable. -Inteligencer.

That fortitude which has encount-
cred no dangers, that prudence which
has surmounted no difficulties, that in
tegrity which has been attacked by no
temptation, can at best be considered
but as gold not yet brought to the test,
of which, therefore, the true value can
not be assigned.-Johnson.
"A devout thought, pious desire,

NATIONAL PRINTING.
Uncle Sam the Owner of the Worlds
Greatest Publishing House.

Uncle Sam the Owner of the Worlds
Greatest Publishing House.
The United States Government is the
greatest publishing house IN the
world. By the side of its resources
such an establishment as the Harpers'
becomes quite small. The only daily
publication issued by Uncle Sam is the
Congressional Record, and that contains
more matter than two ordinary issues
of metropolitan newspaper. Origin
ally the proceedings of Congress were
published by contract by the Globe
Company, but it was found that the
work could be done cheaper at the
Government printing office, and the
Record was established some fifteen
years ago. 1t is each morning al
ways laid ON the members desks be.
fore the hour of meeting. A wagon
is running day and night, collecting
copy. carrying messengers with proofs
OF speeches, etc.; 6,4OO copies are
printed daily. Seventy-two persons
are employed during the session, a
great many of whom are furloughed
at the close of the session. An ac-
count of the preparation and various
processes of producing this publica-
ton, the way Congressman revise and
rewrite their speeches after delivery,
ETC., would make an interesting article
of itself.
The capacity of the establishment
for speed of execution, as well as
quantity of work, is practically un-
limited. The copy of bill or report
in Congress, making fifty or sixty
large printed pages, may, be received
at ten o'clock in the morning, and in
two or three hours the printed and
stitched or bound copies will be laid on
the desks Of members. The revised
statutes, comprising volume Of
l.O3S octave pages, were printed,
bound and delivered to the committee
in two and a half days. The finest
work ever issued from the office was
1.-THE Medical and Surgical History Of
the War of the Rebellion" 1t was
printed on fine paper, and contained .
great number Of magnificent illustra-
tons. An edition of 1900 copies was
first issued, and afterward Congress
ordered 10000. 1t was in demand by
all the great libraries Of the world.
The payroll of this great beehive
amounts in round numbers to $1S5, 900
per month. Over 3,400 tons of paper
are consumed per month, or an aver
age of one carload per day.-7Oledo
