The Water Route to Siberia

While Mr.. Sibirikiakof, the wealthy Rus
sian merchant, WIS sinking thousands of
dollars every year in the vain effort to prove
that steamers could make the passage from
western Europe through the Kara sea to the
Ienisei river, rugged British sea captain
named Virgins kept asserting that the route
was perfectly feasible, and that the Russian
failed because his ships were inadequate to
the task, and consequently got fast in the
ice On his own account Capt. Virgins has
made three successful voyages TO the Yenisei,
and with capitalist named Sullivan he has
now embarked in the Siberian trade by the
sea route. They left England three weeks
ago in the we'll freighted steamer Labrador.
which they expect viii be met at the mouth
of the Yenisci by their steamer Phoenix from
YeniSeisk. 1900 miles up tho river, with a
cargo from the far interior of Siberia. The
vessels VIII exchange cargoes, and the
voyagers viii then push into the Kara sea
again. They hope to make the round trip in
little over two months
The profits of the voyage, if successful,
will be enormous. The ample productions
OF southern Siberia, OF which bIr. KEENAN,
has recently given vivid description, arc
as yet almost inaccessible, except for homo
consumption II results from the almost
utter lack OF communications that hogna
produce in Siberia Is very cheap, while for
eign goods Of all sorts arc very dear. The
cost Of freight from Moscow TO Irkutsk is now
$50 a ton. Capt. Virgins says he can make
"A handsome profit by laying down goods on
the Yenisei from England at S16 ton He
says he can buy on tho Yeuisci q first class
ships mast sixty feet high for s.; that beef
costs theTo only five ceuts pound; that
ton of salt, worth fifteen shillings at Liver
pool, is salabic at YeHisei for So; that a
ton of wheat can be bought there for s., and
he found a fine quality OF black lead so plen-
tiful that he ballasted his ship with it

and inoeherx Alasl.lt has probably never
occurred to these young persons that they
should consult their parents in kindred mat
tiers; and viewed III this light, the subject
becomes both sax3 and serious one.
The fathers and {mothers Of our day are
certainly to blame for this state Of things;
they have, In snauy cases, allowed their
children to-grow up much like unbroken
colts, In the matter Of social discipline and
restraint, and when they at last begin to see
for themselves the necessity of finding out
and obeying social laws, they turn away
from their parents to seek other sources Of
information, because they have never been
taught to take counsel of their natural
guardians
Many mothers seem to think that if they
attend to the details Of housekeeping, pro-
vide their children with clothing and pay
their school bills, they have done all that
can be required OF them. Others, again,
forget that what is so familiar to them is
unknown ground to their children, and the
latter are only too willing to assume control
of ali their own actions, till, by and By, some
blunder causes them pain and modification,
and they perceive that the world polite, like
every other world, has laws which cannot
be violated with l.npunIty.
In nine cases out of ten the best rule is to
task mother" She may not always be able
to tell her daughter the newest fad" but
newest fads are not always desirable-are
followed often by certain fast set only.
Mother can almost always tell about the old
ways, and one should know about these first,
just as lawyer must read Blackstone and
Coke before he can understand modern stat
ute law.-F1orence Howe Hall in Demorest's

Tho "Old Baby's" Grief.

What a curious thing it is to think that
that wonderful new baby will turn into a
commonplace old baby in q year or two-that
with the advent of number two his reign is
over.
A little girl, though she is only years
old, takes an interest in that new baby, feels
that she must help take care of it, goes about
materially airing its garments and holding
the pincushion for nurse, delights In its baths,
and boasts about her baby brother before she
can talk plain. But the boy-that is another
matter. He scowls when that wrinkled
piece Of humanity is presented to him. and
refuses to kiss it, He wants none of it. Why
should it have his place on mammals shout
dera Why should he be told to go aways He
thinks as III Of it as his limited knowledge of
mundane affairs viii permit him to think Of
anything He has been known to request that
it might be "frowed away" and to call it
"nassy sing" and. indeed, his trials are very
great Life has altered signally for him
He feels it to his hearts core, if he is made Of
sensitive stuff.
1t is all very we'll for Bridget to take him
into the kitchen and tell him to ''be nice
lad, an she'll make him q cake" He wants
his mother; he never was turned out Of
mothers room before. His heart is full
Well for him, at this time, if he has a grand
mother ready to make him her idol, a little
jealous for him as the first born. Then, indeed,
his ways shortly become the ways Of pleasant
ness, and life assumes q holiday, cake, candy,
gingerbread and toy aspect But in any
event that old baby has very unhappy
day or two before it, a season when knowL
edge Of the bitterness OF life comes to him
prematurely, and he understands the feelings
of deposed emperor.-Mary Kyle Dallas in

Temptations OF the Teller.

The big banks down town with which ex-
tensive brokers and merchants deal do an
enormous amount of business every day. A
great deal OF this business is by checks and
drafts and the balances to be paid to settle
the debts and credits are fixed every morning
at the clearing house. But with all the checks
and drafts, the paying telleas in these banks
handle fortunes in cash every day that they
arc at their windows attending 20 business.
Aside from the amounts which they pay out
between 10 and o'clock, there is always
a large cash fund held in reserve for contin-
gencies that may arise suddenly and unex-
pectedly. 1t is nothing extraordinary for q
paying teller 70 handle from 81 600, 900 to
S2, 0O0, 600 of cash in O day.
When the doors Of the bank closed the
paying teller counts his cash to see thatthe
amount on hand corresponds with the
amount called for by the books He puts
his cash balance in the vault and quits work
until next morning. From the time he
leaves the bank until the hour for him to
reappear no one of the officers OF the bank
knows where he is. He may, in fact, stay
away a couple of days on the plea Of illness,
and If, as is usually the case, he has the con-
fdence Of his superiors, his absence arouses
no suspicious
Express trains leave for Montreal at 7and
11:13 every evening. A paying teller can
put million dollars in greerbacks In his
pockets, walk outOt his bank when the bust
ness of the day is over, and be in Montreal
before he or the money is missed.
Paying tellars are considered wen paid
when they Sc: a salary of s., 800 a year. They
know that their chance of becoming cashier
or president is very slim, and that the prob
abilities are they win so to the grave paying
tellers, or else be bounced because Of old age,
or because change in the officers or board
Of directors has brought into power SOHO
rich and influential man with poor re,a-
tive whom he wants to support without cost
to himself.
Consider for moment the terrible tempta-
tions some of these tellers suffer They see
men making money by methods which ars
neither exactly dishonest nor exnctly fair,
and that nobody interferes with them They
also see and feel enough money day after day
to make them SO independent OF work that
they could live on the fat of the land while
life lasts and not turn hand.-New York

Locked I'm for CompanY.

Among the strange fetiches that survive
among race otherwise civilized and refined
is that OF tie parlor and best bedroom.
These are commonly the largest. coolest and
pieasantest rooms in the house, fitted with
the most attractive furniture, carpets and
pictures-and locked up for company. Was
ever such folly9 A man who affords HIM
self an agreeable apartment puts himself out
of it and will not let himself in unless the
clergyman is there, or unless somebody ar
rives from distant city or another street.
1t is better to turn the juvenile population
of the house into the pa,lor, to wear the best
carpets to shreds, to leave finger marks on
the mantel piece, to let them jump ON the
bed in the best room until it has no moro
spring in it than restaurant chiclen-it is
wiser TO do this than to close and sancuify
these apartments, involving them IN solenl-
nifty, dampness and stufy smell Open the
blinds and windows and let the light and air
in; let the children in, too, and live there
yourself Don't have things too fine to use.

and have it put in glass case, or. better,

Biting tho Finger Nails,

A novel accident, resulting from q habit
of very common prevalence among ne1vous
people, was brought to my notice recently.
A young lady presented herself at my Office
complaining of constant irritation In her
throat. Two weeks previously she bad beon
taken with a very severe ''sore throat
which was treated by neighbori1g phyE5-
clan. Under his care, she suys, the infiam-
nation quickly subsidized, but there still TO
manned sensation Of irritation Enrr,dua-
ton revealed q small. Aeehy hooking object,
about thesize of kernel of wheat, adhreut

The httiexnass could not be detacted by q
Gtton covered probe. but by taeuse Of for
ceps it was easily removed, and on exan1ins-
ton proved TO be piece Of finger Gail, which
had become covered by a cheesy Deposit A
broken piece OF the nail was also removed
from under the mucous membrane at tie
same spot by sharp pointed probe. The pa
tent then confessed to the habit Of biting her
finger nails, and, moreover, could remember
that day or two previous 70 the onsst Of
her throat trouble piece Of nail which shs

Unconscious Crue,tv to Children.

Some loving mothers are very cruel to
little girls. l remember an excellent lady,
whose children attended the same school I
went to- who made their lives miserable by
lacking around the skirts of every white
dress they wore curiously beautiful piece Of
embroidery. The thing in itself was charm
ing, but in that year little girls dress was
plainly hemmed or tucked. The other chill
dren laughed at the trimming they could not
appreciate, the victims wept. The mother
kept on the even tenor of her way, and regu-
larly did up the trimming when it was
soiled.
The picturesque, the odd, the grotesque.
has been fashionable now for years, but tho
formal was then the order Of the day. View
ing the distress Of my friends, I then and
there resolved that if chad children when I
never be tormented By whim Of mine. The
world of small people is less tolerant than
that Of "grown ups"
I have seen q ''queer" lunch basket, q
caprice In the cut of an apron, set of furs
not approved of by schoolmates torture a
child's soul; and when a schoolgirl or school
boy wants something because the others
have it, }" provide it if you can.
A sense of being different from others, Pc
culiar, an object Of ridicule, breaks a child's
spirit, and it does not matter that it ought to
know that what you have given it is some
thing superior, if it does not
I knew a woman VINO told me that she al
most hated her mother because she would
cut her hair short, like boys, at a time
when all the other children wore long
braid tied with a ribbon, unless they were
fortunate enough to possess ''ringlets."-
