give aid in solving it. He took the problem,
worked on it long time, and being unable to
solve it gave the scholar lecture on perse-

worked at his room until a very late hour on
the problem. without success. Finally in a
sort of mental abstraction he got up and COM
menced pacing the room. While so doing he
noticed a small closet near the side of chin

he found torn and wrinkled piece of pape r

that the figures on that piece of paper were
the solution of the very problem which had
perplexed him so greatly.-Lew,ston Journal

The Heir Coming of Age.

AT coming of age ofthe heir there
is great celebration" writes Adam
Badeau in the last of his papers on the
English aristocracy. ut is feast for
tenants and family relatives, init
mate friends and laborers on the es-
tate. The house is crowded with
guests, and the neighbors of rank
often open their establishments and
assist in the hospitality. There are
booths and marques upon the lawn,
an OK is roasted whole, beer and wine
are abundant, and the best of humor
prevails. All classes mingle freely,
and the upper tenants are invited to
the dining-room. A speech is made
by the heir. The father and mother
and other relatives stand near, the
flag flies over him, the tenantry and
retainers cheer, the brothers and
sisters are proud, or envious, who
can say which? and the young lord
feels all his grandeur and Importance,
perhaps more keenly than ever again.
There is a drlye over the estate,
which is everywhere decorated with
indications of loyal regard; presents
are made to the poor and their chill
dren; the parish church bells ring and
sometimes even poachers are forgiven
or released. At night the great house
and the villages are illuminated.
Everything is done to foster the feud-
al feeling that still fingers, and the
paternal system and influence of the
aristocracy are as conspicuous as on
any occasion yet left IN England"

The Bcwitching Miss Stauffer.

Gay" the sprightly correspondent

writes from Saratoga OF Miss staufer,
who bewitched Mr.. Tilden out oil

Stauffer three successive summers at
Richfield, and hearing each year that
Mr.. Tilden had named her in his will,
I was not surprised when I read that
he had settled upon her 100000
Miss Stauffer crossed the ocean on the
same steamer with Mr.. Tilden the last
time he visited Europe. It was on the
return trip that the handsome girl be-
witched him. He presented to her
diamond bracelet said to have cost
$4,000. While Miss Stauffer was
staying at Cranston's Mr.. Tilden sent
his yacht up, that she might use it for
pleasure. She kept up a correspond.
ence with Mr.. Tilden, but l never
heard it intimated that he had asked
her to marry him. It always seemed
more as if he had adopted her as his
daughter and enjoyed making her hap
py by gifts and favors. Miss. Stautfer
possesses all the requisites for a
belle. Without being particular
ly beautiful, she is SNOWY
and striking-looking She has many
admirers. She wears her lovely and
costly toilets as though they were
part of herself. She is finely formed
and dances gracefully. She is a crack
tennis player, and it is said that she
composed, as we'll as delivered, the re.
ply she made to Rex when he chose
her for queen during the Mardi- Gras
festivities in New Orleans two years
ago. It requires some nerve and all
the sustaining qualities of vanity for
q young woman in private life to as.
sumo the mimic robes of royalty and
ride through the public streets of a
large city, to be stared at by the vul-
gar crowd who, on such occasions,
flock to New Orleans. She spoke last
summer Of not feeling a bit nervous
when making her address. Miss Stauf.
fer has been in the habit OF dividing
her summers between Rehfeld, Bar
Harbor and Cranston's. Her parents
and brother form her party. Her par
,ents are very plain, unintefesting- look
ing people. Her father is prosperous
hardware merchant in New Orleans.

Bobby Burns

Speaking OF Burns, the London
News says: No poet, to tell the truth,
had ever better chance OF immortal,
ity. No poet ever more thoroughly
and completely represented q people,
and no more intense, ardent, patriot
ic and self-con6dent people ever had a
poet to represent it. Who is the poet
of the Irish? The harp is silent in the
halls of Tara. They have but q small
chance of a Burns, among all the
spirited national singers "who trihe
with the crewet," or Irish harp,
Moore is far too artificial. Man.
gan, and the Balladists, do not
make up Burns among them. Eng.
land has in Shakespeare poet far
too great to be merely national; he is
universal, and the whole world shares
him with us, TO whom he belongs, as it
were, by accident of birth. In Beran-
ger the French have something more
closely answering to Burns; no poet
could be more French than Beranger,
and no one who was q triae more
French could be poet. He represents
the people with their aspirations, their
illusions, their belief in honest good
nature, and their disbelief in many
other things. Burns still more COM
pletely represents the Scotch. or, at
least the masses of Scotland. If they
are fond of the lasses, so was Burrs
attached to the fair. If they like tod
dy, 50 did the witty gauger. If they
are independent, almost too con-
sciously independent, so was the au-
thor Of "a Mans q Man for

was he, and intensely resentful ot
foreign interference. If they like q
lord, he, in an honorable way, had
no aversion to the society Of the

ssThere is No Health in 1t. ,

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
At a reception by the British Nation
al Temperance League, given to the
colonial and Indian delegates, DR.. B.
w. Richardson, who presided, said:
'"They had learned that alcohol, un-
like food, acted exactly as medical
agent. With regard to it's (alcohops)
action, they had discovered that, in
the words of the general confession in
the Book Of Common Prayer, it did
those things which it ought not to
have done, and it left undone
those things which it ought to
have done, and, there was no health
in it. 1t caused diseases, twenty-four
of which were now known to be specif-
ically produced by it, and every day
!; medical science detected more injury
b arising from it's use."
1t would be difficult to frame an in
Adictment against alcohol in stronger
terms than this. The happy borrow
ing and adaptation of the words of
the confession" from the Prayer
Book caused laughter, and that it did
SO is no wonder. Neither does it dam
age the argument. The light feather
OF the arrow carries the barb more
surely toits point. Witty utterances
are longest remembered and are more
efficient than rude denunciation. The
reader may like to know who this DR..
Richardson is and by what authority
he speaks. He is an M. d. and an E.
r. S., and he is an honor
airy member Of the American
Philosophical Society, whose home
ancient and modern, is in Philadelphia.
He is the discoverer Of many medical
facts and appliances, and volumin.
GUS author. In his writing he belongs
to the experimental rather than the
theoretical school, and when he
announces that twenty-four diseases
are specifically produced by alcohol
it may be fairly presumed that he is
