Tralnlnc the children of Criminals.


In lotter on the employment OF criminal
children, published few years ago, from
the pen of Mr. Isaac Ashe, president of the
Central Criminal asylum Of Dundrum, Dub
In, he expresses that IL the child OF the
clever forger be taught draughtsmanship the
hereditary proclivity to a criminal use of an
instructive faculty, so called, is directed into
an analogous yet healthy channel, with the
hopeful results of curing tendency for
crime and of making skillful artisan. If
the children of generations of pickpockets
be taught to use their eriminally delft fingers
and delicate touch in some handicraft requir-
ing special capacity of finger, such as
Matchmaking, the healthy function is found
for nervous proclivity and II muscular APP
titude which would otherwise fairly work
itself out in the criminal acts TO which its
very existence forms an almost irresistible
temptation But to attempt to abrogate ut
terly or eradicate criminal tendency with
cut such utilization of it in healthy direc.
ton is futile.--Asclepiad

confidently predicted to be the metal Of most

strength surpasses iron and steel, while it is

WHY NOT ART AND LATHERG
What's TO Prevent the BARRIERS from Talk
ing n Hint from tho Pnhlicans2

What's to Prevent the BARRIERS from Talk
ing Hint from tho PublicansP
High art in the barroom long ago Boz
came an incontrovertible and prominent fact
in metropolitan life said an observing New
Yorker the other day. High art and rum
as a combine are odd enough, but the coming
innovation will excel it. High art and lather
will be here some day, and the art will be
high in double sense, for it will not be on
the wall, but on the ceiling.
How is it that the barber has not long ere
this added to his colloquial fascination the
charm of the painters brush to draw ducats
to his purse2 There's money in the scheme,
IL the thrifty Teuton will but put on his
glasses and see it. Thase are BARRIERS in some
of the leading hotels of this city who have
grown independent through their trade, and
may grow wealthy. Let such man secure
an artist of the first rank in the United
States, or from abroad il he prefer it, who
will transform his ceiling into a vast work of
art, or series of works, which shall delight
the eye and can only be viewed with comfort
from horizontal petition The ceiling may
be a false one, if desired, placed over the
original and made portable, in order that it
may be transplanted to another sphere il tho
rent is raised in consequence.
"Why do men go calmly to sleep the mo-
ment they strike BARRIERS chair? Because
they are sleepyl Not at all. 1t is because
the monotonous field of white or of abomin-
ably figured wall paper spread out above
them for fifteen minutes would in time make
of them nervous wrecks unless they closed
their eyes; and by closing their eyes they in
duce slumber. If, instead of this ordeal a
man realized that he could enter a certain
barber shop as he enters the National Acad-
envy of Design or the Metropolitan museum
OF Art he would so to that shop every time;

ton which persists in shaving itself would in.
sist in having its hair cut once or twice a
week at least Indeed, the cause of temper
anee itself migtt hope for new boom, for
many men who now drop i'll for drink
would in time come to drop in for a shave in
stead And as the price is about the same
for each, lather would not be hampered in
the contest with rum.
IAN humble barber in the Bowery has al
ready caught the idea in a crude way, and
has set'his aristocratic brethren an example
by covering his ceiling Unfortunately with
attractive figures from theatrical posters and
then vanishing over the whole until it has
the appearance of an artists dream afte- a
rarebit. It's crude, but the idea is there, and
is bound to be heard from sooner or later. ~

Lord Tennyson In london.

1t was only few weeks aga that saw the
noble hermit, who is Engand's poet laureate.
1t was in busy London thoroughfare--mid-
day-and his lordship looked as thorough u

who strays into Broadway from Castle Gar

evident they took him for an East End jew

THE DRUG STORE SHOW BOTTLE.
An Invention that VIII Help to Place II
on tho Retired List

An Invention that VIII Help to Place II
tho Retired List.
A. very attractive and effective novelty in
the way of n sign may be seen in front Of a
down town drug store 1t is, indeed 50
prominent and dazzling feature, especially
at night, that no one can help seeing it. 1t il
an illuminated drug sign, the invention of
the druggist himself
The sign is conveniently formed in the
shape of case, its thickness about half its
width, having door giving access to the in
terror. In the sides of this case are arranged
glasses of the kind commonly known as
"bulls eyes, of different sizes and colors,
forming the translucent parts of druggists
compound show bottle, the round bulls eyes
forming successive portions of the bottle It
is the intention to mako the remainder of the
design figured work upon The outside of the
case in bright colors, such as gold or silver
leaf, which will reflect the light, and the out
line thus formed carry out the outline of a
show bottle. At night the light passing
through these bulls eyes will also illuminate
these bright outlines, and the show bottle mp
pearance will be carried out even more fully
than by daylight. The lights, as arranged
inside the case, nre of gas, but where gas is
not obtainable, oil win be found to answer
the purpose nearly as we'll The patent also
covers the use Of bottles with colored waters
placed behind tie bulls eyes, and also tho
use of white or uncolored bulls eyes, with
strips of colored glass slides interp6sed be-
tween the bulls eye and the light
With the old style show bottle, which has
been In use for couple of centuries or more,
person cannot see the drug light when the
windows are frosted or covered with sweat,
and if one is ON the same side of the street
where the drug store happens to be in the
middle Of the square, the show lights are not
visible twenty yards away.
With this improved combination drug
sign and show bottle no drug store can have
its light hid under bushel. The sign is at
tached to pillar Mt the entrance, and ex-
tending out two feet or more, may be seen
for more than mile up and down the street,
us the bulls eyesnever sweat or get covered
with frost. The lower bulls eye in the sign
is of a beautiful ruby color, eight inches III
diameter, with a magnifying lens four and
one-half inches in diameter Above the
ruby is one six inches in diameter, with "a
three and one-half inch lens, and above this
a four inch amber bulls eye These bulls
eye glasses are OF the same form as those
used in signal light houses, which are seen
from thirty to forty miles away.
The sign will certainly do away with tho
time honored show bottles, long since voted
u nuisance by progressive druggists who
have recognized the fact that they do not
comport with the improved fixtures of mod
srn times. indianapolis Journal.

OLD MUSIC.

Turn the leaves tenderly, just as you'd touch
A flower her lips had pressed, whom long ago
You loved unspeallably; In just such
Reverence, hold that dear old book, 30
Worn and stained in happy days OF yore,
Fer yet my life boat from the shore
Had drifted, drifted with the tide
And sunny youth, upon the further side
Was left; they whom loved, and /,
Together sang them, those upgathered songs;
Sang them in voices clear, and high
As meadow minstrels; unto them belongs
An untold worth; nearest her heart.
Nature her richest gems doth hide;
SO, in my own, my love hath set apart
A shrine, which oft at eventide
| seek from that far vanished shore.
Then floating, come tome
Over life's widening sea;
Sweet echo songs; and with yearning cry
Answers, my soul can never die;
My love for them, still in my heart twill dwell,
Until that pulsing heart hath hidden life farewell
