Differing Views efAnimal Intelligence

"There exists in animals" says Male
brancho, neither mind nor soul as we
commonly understand the terms. They
eat without pleasure, they cry out with
out pain, they grow without knowing
it, they desire nothing, they know moth
ing, and, If they behave in manner
betokening intelligence. it is because
God, who made them, has, to preserve
them, formed their bodies in such q
way that they avoid mechanically and
without fear everything that is capable
of destroying them" Malebranche
was more categorical than Descartes on
the sub ect of souls in beasts. The
latter had doubts on the matter. He
would not have been far from conced-
ing thought to the higher animals. But
then he would have had to concede it
to all, even to the oyster and the
sponge; and what have the oyster and
the sponge that resembles q soul?
We know how this question occupied
the seventeenth and eighteenth CEN
turtles. In the nineteenth century,
Frederic Culver, Flourens, and others
took it up, and tried to establish upon
facts distinction between intelligence
and instinct Finally, Darwin came
and wiped out every line of demarka-
ton between man and animals. But,
whatever may be the ta' or-rapidly
gained-that surrounds the doctrine OF
transformism, we must not forget, on
the one hand, that it is not universally
accepted, nor, on the other hand, that
it does not answer the question of the
intelligence of animals. - Popular Sci

From the American Commercial Traveler.l
He is either q fool or philosopher
who can laugh at the world.
In striving to please others man
finds for himself the purest and most
enduring of pleasures.
Discomfort is raven with O pois-
onous beak, picking, ever picking, at
the heart of man.
EACH and every truth antedates the
universe. The wisest sage cannot for
mulate o new, but the simplest child
may bring one to light.
CONSCIENCE scorned, out of Justice
will set us on to ruin ourselves. 1t Is
the self-debased mind alone that ex-
hibits contempt for the laws of So
ciety.
MANS every act is square, the sides
of which present to the world a differ
emit aspect. 1t is, therefore, the duty
of singular humanity to abstain from
the performance of anything until its
different effects on mankind are weigh
ed and understood.
WE are pleased with the works of a
great architect; we admire the crea-
tons of grand genius; but We delight
in and espouse the cause of the vir-
tuous, and, coming in contact with his
moral gifts, make them at once part
of ourselves, and are thus stimulated
to arrive at higher state of being.
OF Hopes sweet nectar once we taste,
With nimble feet away We haste;
But haste conflicting soon with hurry,
We lose our way in endless 1OOTTy,
And straightway feel the pressing need
OF steadfast, calm. progressive speed
And he alon" may win the match
Who clears the way with stern dispatch.

Markets i'm Paris.

The Paris markets are probably the
finest in the world. The Halles Cen
trales were built on the model of the
Crystal Palace, and though the other
markets in the various quarters of
Paris are not so large and so fine, they
are all managed on the same princi-
pies, and are examples of what can be
done when people have an mixing
that they are real society, and that
the common good is the truest way of
arriving at the individual good. In
lying awake at night l always found
that the only time out of the twenty
four hours in which there was absolute
silence in Paris was about two o'clock
in the morning. Shortly after this
hour the market wagons begin to pass
on their road to the Halles Centrales,
where they arrive about three a. m.
They are there unloaded by regiment
of nearly 500 porters, called "Ies forts
de la Halle" and who are only admit
ted after their physical capacity and
moral character have been found salts
factory. The greatest care is taken to
prevent bad goods from being sold.
The inspectors weigh and test every
pound of butter. The annual con-
sumption of eggs in Paris is said to
reach the fabulous number of $50, 000,-
600. Those brought into the market
are each inspected, and similar care is
exercised over the meat; whatever is
condemned is covered with quicklime
and buried. The butcher shops in
Paris are models of cleanliness and
good order, and instead of making diff
fculties about small joints, you are
readily served with any amount you
require. There are many reasons for
this great superiority if compared with
the same sort of shops in London the
markets, the supervision of the author
tiles, the great economy of French
housekeeping, and the practice among
Partisan housekeepers of doing their
own marketing.

MISS HANNAH MORE, a celebrated

Miss HANNAH MORE, celebrated
writer, who died about fifty years ago,
had good way of managing tale-bear-
ers. 1t is said that when she was told
anything derogatory of another, her
invariable reply was: "Come, we will
go and ask if it be true" The effect
was sometimes ludicrously painful.
The tale-bearer was taken aback, STAN
mered out n qualification, or begged
that no notice be taken Of the state
ment; but the good lady was inexora-
able; off she took the scandal-monger
to the scandalized, to make inquiry and
compare accounts 1t is not likely that
anybody ever ventured to repeat gos-
sipy story to Hannah More. one would
think her method of treatment would
be a sure cure for scandal.

A Hunter and n Setter.

When George Washington was a
small boy, and about the time he car
ried on his numbering operations in his
fathers orchard, he heard the old
gentleman say he wished to get good
bird dog. Shortly after that George
succeeded in stealing a common yellow
dog of neighbor, and, knowing the
governor was not well posted on dogs,
offered to sell it to him for fifty cents
with which TO go to the circus.

father of his country.
"Yes, replied George.

The next day George crawled under
the tent of the Great Colonial United
Circus and Menagerie and spent the
half dollar for popcorn brick. About
a week later his father discovered that
the dog did not know q bird from a
wheelbarrow, and shortly after was
about to bring mule harness trace
into active service on his son and heir.
Il thought you said that dog was a

ed the young hopeful; ait is hunter
