The Princes Visiting Cards.

..Now. Mecsha" (kIike), "here,s a
list of the houses at which you are to
call, and you must be suresto leave one.
of my cards at each of them. You'll
find the cards on my study table. Do
you hear?" So spoke Prince C.. one
of the leaders of society in Moscow, to
the liyeried servant who bowed before
him as he stepped into his carriage.
1t was New-Year's Day,a time when,
in Russia, as in France, every one
visits his friends, aud the salutation of
sS' novym gOdom s. noyym ,etchas-
item" with the new year, new happi-
ness) is heard on every side; SO the
Prince was setting out to call in per-
son upon few of his chosen friends,
while sending his foOtman to leave
cards upon the fifty OF sixty less ,inti-
mate acquaintanees whom he possess
sed in the fashionable quarter of the
town.
81 hear, your Brightness, said the
lackey, bowling again, and his master
drove away.
Two hours later a dashing young
officer of the imperial Guard refined up
his horse beside Prince G-'s carriage
as it passed him, and said, in voice
tremulous with laughter: ''Oh. Yakoy
Andreievitch" (James, son of Andrew).
.'that was a splendid idea of yours!
It'll be all over the town tomorrow.
I'm sure. haven't had such a laugh
since 1 don't know when" And off he
went, laughing unrestrainedly.
C. looked after him in blank be-
wilderment; but he was still more pre-
picked about half an hour later, when
a stout, bald, red-faced man, in the rich
uniform of a government official, came
| and said, sternly:
s.Yakov Andreievitch, don't know
what have done that you should in
suit me in this unwarrantable way.
You shall hear from me tomorrow. :"
And he passed on, foaming with rage.
'Are they all mad?" muttered the
amazed Prince. What ON earth can
have doneP"
But the explanation came only too
soon. just as he reached his own door
again, up came the footman whom he
had sent round with visiting cards, and
said, with respectful bow, "I've left
all the cards, your Brightness, except
the ace of spades and the queen of
diamonds"
Then the poor Prince understood it
all. This model servant of his had left
playing-cards upon his friends by mis-
take.-Hdrper's Magazine.

The Beautiful.

Beautiful faces are those that wear
1t matters little if dark or fair
Whole-soued honesty printed there.
Beautiful eyes are those that show,
Like crystal panes where earth fires glow,
Beautiful thoughts that burn below.
Beautiful lips are those whose words
Leap from the heart like songs of Birds
Yet whose utterance prudence girds.
Beautiful hands are those that do
Work that is earnest and brave and true
Moment by moment the long day through.
Beautiful feet are those that go
On kindly ministry to and fro
Down lowlest ways If God wills it so.
Beautiful shoulders are those that bear
Ceaseless burdens of homely care
With patience grace and daily prayer.
Beautiful lives are those that bless
Silent rivers of happiness,
Whose hidden fountains but few may guess.
Beautiful twilight at set of sun,
Beautiful goal, with race well run,
Beautiful rest, with work we'll done.
Beautiful grave, where grasses creep,
Where brown leaves fall where drifts lie deep,
Over worn out hands-oh, beautiful sleep!

MoDEsTY is indeed one of the lost arts Time
was when it was a virtue. Then it degenerated to
an art. Now, as an art it is folded away and is
no more. Years ago our grandparents would
have gasped and tainted at the everyday sights at
the summer resorts this year. The bathing CO.'S
tunes are something remarkable in their way.
Bathing corsets corsage boquets, skirts above the
knees and lace bonnets are some of the details in
the attire of the fashionable bather, and bare arms
and bright-red stockings complete the costume

Too much cannot be said by the press about the
foolish sentimentality exhibited by women toward
criminals. AS soon as some brute is put behind
the prison bars lie at nice becomes TIE hero Of the
hour in the diseased minds of feminine weaklings,
and he becomes the recipient Of costly presents,
fruits, flowers, and so on, till he finds himself en-
joying the touch of the hand of the law. The
Italian woman in New York city, whose death SEN
tence for murder was recently committed by the
governor to imprisonment for life, is the recipient
of most lavish attentions. Where are the hospitals
with their thousands of patients and the dropping
babes of the fresh air fund? Why are the SYM
pathies of tender hearted woman averted from
these worthy ones and bent on creating heroes of
such as have no sentiments in their breast, save
what is created in the fancy of foolish women?
