DON'T WANT A LOAF.

The unemployed, as represented in
Trafalgar Square, unless eyes, we'll accus-
toned to London life, have deceived me
are not, as rule, men in search of work.
That they don't want bread, was made
plain to me yesterday. saw gentle
man take one of them into bakers shop
and give him threepenny loaf. The re-
cipient Rugged it to his breast as though
it were salvation, till the donor was out
of sight; then he went over to the croes-
ing-sweeper on the other side of the road,
and disposed of it TO him for twopence, and
furnished with that capital, Immediately
entered public house. A loafer, such as
those who hang about Trafalgar Square,
does not want loaf Their conduct in
the Abbey convinces me that they are
not what they profess to be, for "work.
ingmen" have no "rowdy" instincts, aud
would certainly be careful when "de-
monstrating" not to set all respectable
people against them by such vile behav-
ior.

those who believe in dreams = when
dreamed by persons of a practical turn
of mind. The best dreamer on record
was Sir William johnson, who held sway
in America previous to the Revolution.
Having received some suits OF clothes
richly laced from England, in the pres
ence of Hendrick, chief of the five ma
tons of Mohawks, the latter called on
him the next day and mentioned that he
had had a dream, in which Sir William
had made him present of one of those
very suits. The governor at once gave
him one of the very richest; but night
or two afterward he too had dream, in
which Hendrick gave him the finest trac

For THE UNIvERsALIsT.

DECEMBER %, 1887.

Thy work on earth is done,
The day has dawned for thee,
A Christmas day intending,
For God has caDed thee home.
o loving soul, who dearly priced
All things in Gods great universe.
Thy hands grown weary here,
With striving for humanity,
Have clasped in fond embrace
The hands of those gone on before
Into the glad Beyond.
For thee no more earth's pain and care,
But gain surprising human thought;
Sorrow for us since thou art gone,
And yet the memory of thy life,
AS husband, father, friend;
Thy efforts grand to raise and lead
Mankind to better deeds,
And broader thought of Gods great love
And mercy, and mans brotherhood,
Remains priceless gift.
Remembrance of a summers eve,
Comes to me DER and Ger,
When by thy side, a guest, 1 heard
The story of thy life
Its struggles and it's victories,
And felt with faith renewed,
How path of duty followed long,
And purity of purpose gave
A recompense of peace.
Heav'n's deepest joys be thine.
My fathers lifelong friend and mine,
With reverence from childhood felt,
AS one of many who will say,
my life was blessed by him.
This tribute to thy faithfulness,
lay upon thy grave.

A MOTHERS RESPONSIBILITY.


Children are like monkeys, natural
mimics. They do as they see others do.
The best safeguards against rudeness
and disrespect are courtesy and kindness.
Let the little ones live in perpetual at
mosphere of politeness. Let them be-
taught that il there be any choice, their
best manners are to be kept for home
consumption and their surplus of polite
ness laid by for strangers; but there
need be no apprehension on that score.
A boy who is considerate for his mother
and sisters is sure to be considerable for
others. Whoever sees a young man
thoughtful for women and children, al
ways on the lookout to do kindness to
the old, the sick, the weak, but thinks,
"Ahl he had good mother"
And the converse is true. A badly
brought up and boorish boy is bound to
reflect discredit on the one who bred
him. Many good woman makes bad
mother. Her very love makes her wrong
both herself and her child. The victims
OF a mistaken kindness are legion, and
the sad thing is that the children of such
mothers, while they love, frequently live
to half despise their weakness. Boston

ENGLISH AND AMERICAN GIRLS

ENGLISH AND AMERICAN GIRLS.
One of the good-lookmg, younger Eng

was lately holding forth most enthusiast
tieally on the continued and courteous
hospitality extended to him and his asso.
ciates by the people Of Washington.

had to tax my memory to recall gath
ering that would compare in personnel
with the great parlor of the Presidents
home at the diplomatic reception"
GLOW did the women impress you in
comparison with those of England?" I
asked.
ST will reply frankly if you will let me"
he said. "The American girls seem to
me much more pretty-much hsndsomer
than their English cousins-but my sense
of the harmonious was little Jared
when they spoke. Englishwomen's into
nation is musical, low sympathetic, while
that of the typical daughter OF America
is high, somewhat harsh and not very
grateful. The American girl is hand
some in repose, but the advantage is in
favor Of the Englishwoman the moment
conversation is started. Have 1 been too
cRndid?"-W Washington Critic.

THE BEGINNING OF SPRING.

Although March is the beginning of
the spring months, the real season com
mences much earlier, as Mr.. Charles Bar
nard explains in the following extract
from an article in the January Wide
| Aa1ake:
Get fiat piece of wood about two
inches wide and eight inches long, also a
ten-penny nail. Drive the nail into the
wood close to one end and halfway be-
tween the sides. Drive it only far enough
to make it stand upright in the wood. At
exactly twelve o'clock place the wood on
a level window seat at south window.
This piece of wood and the nail are Just
as much piece OF scientific apparatus as
any in your school cabinet. By it's aid
you can make a series of scientific expe-
riments, and become a real student of
nature.
Place the wood with the nail toward
the sun in such position that it's shadow
falls on the center of the board Then
make pencil mark on the wood, show
ing just how long the shadow is at pre-
cisely twelve o'clock The next day, or
the next sunny day, at precisely the same
time, try it again, placing the wood ex
actly in the same place as before. Here
is discovery. The shadow is little
longer or little shorter than before.
Repeat this observation once week for a
month, and the change in the shadow
will be very plain. If the observations
are made once a week through December
and January, curious fact will be noted.
The shadow will grow longer and longer
till just before Christmas, when it will
begin to grow shorter and shorter. This
change in the direction in which the
shadow grows from week to week marks
the beginning Of spring in the United
States.
In New England we call it mid-winter,
1t is wintry out of doors, yet the season
has really turned, and spring has set out
on her travels over the land. Even the
muskrat, asleep in the woods, begins to
dream about it. Any plant or seed pro-
toCtcu lIOA bu0 CUlQ Will D0Bm 10 grow.
il it can get little water. After the sea-
son turns spring begins in every sunny
window. Every plant will now grow,
while before Christmas it only seemed to
stand still, or barely keep alive. Now
you can bring up the plants stored in the
cellar, and they will soon trrn green.
They know it is spring, and, il the room
is warm, will surely grow. The days are
growing longer; there is more sunshine
and more heat. AS plant grows, it
needs more and more light and heat.
Therefore everything is just right. 1t
seems to feel it is now safe to start, for
spring has come.
Now is the time to plant seeds in little
wooden boxes in the hoase 1t is spring
in the house, and any seed will grow nat
urally and vigorously, because it feels the
advancing spring right through the glass
of your window. Try it and see. You
will be surprised to find how much quicker
seeds start in January than in November;
how much faster all young plants grow,

HOW ANIMALS ARE KILLED IN
SWITZERLAND,

The following description of how
beeves are killed at Basic in Switzer.
land, is taken from the United States
Consular Report on Cattle and Dairy
Farming. A large slaughtering place
has been built by the city government
on the bank of the Rhine, just below the
city, and put under the control of an &C
complished veterinary surgeon, who con-
trolls all the operations of killing the ami
mails and preparing the meat. This man
has invented an instrument for killing ami
mails. 1t consists of mask or plate, which
has short steel gun fastened to it. This is
fastened to the horns by straps, and the
cartridge in the end is fred by tapping
the iron pin in the end of the gun and
driving it against the cartridge. The
bullet pierces the center of the brain, and
is buried in the spinal marrow, causing
instantaneous and painless death. The
OK walks without fear or apprehension to
the SHAMELESS, touch is given to the
fatal needle, and the huge creature drops
utterly dead and incapable of suffering.

"Don't do that" he said, laughing,
"for when I am an old man, and have
lost all my money, you will want to paint
some pictures SO as to send me checks
and keep me out OF the poor-house
That's the way the story ends"
But that evening; as he sat alone in his
library, the thought came to him that
the story had sometimes another ending.
The color dropped from his lips, for these
men are sometimes very slow in reach
ing their own hearts, but his love for her
was clear to him now. 1t was part Of
himself, for it seized him with fierce
ness that would have no control. Half
the night he walked up and down the Ii
brary, recalling every look and word of
hers. Would she care for him? She
was seventeen, he was thirty-three. Would
she give the freshness of her youth to
him? IL she would, then the four walls
Of their home would be wide enough for
the man who had thought the whole
world too narrow for his roaminge.
The next morning he went to her. He
was not the man to arrange speeches,
and I doubt if they would have helped
him if he had done so, for he was too
much in earnest to remember any but
the simplest words, and he said as bluntly
as one of his workingmen could have
said it:
"Eglantine, love you with all my
heart and strength. Will you marry me?'
and Byzantine answered EYES," as ehyly
as the little brown-faced girl in the green
calico could have done; and then they
had long, happy talk, for Madame
Richard, who had guessed how matters
were gong, took care that no one should
come to disturb them.
AS Mr.. Sidney rose to go, he said
"You ran away from me once. Will
you promise never to do so sgain?" and
she said, with happy smile, 81 don't
know. Are you sure that you don't want
me to marry you just to finish out the
story. "-EUa March Tdppdn, IN 1.-THE

THE FRANKLIN REQUEST.

In 1890 will end the term of 100 years
during which the cities of Boston and
Philadelphia have each enjoyed the rev.
enue from bequest of $1,000 made by
Benjamin Franklin. The money was to
be loaned out to young married artificers
and the trust has been executed, al
though the lapse of the century requires
a new disposition of the funds. 1t is sig
ni6cant that while in Boston the $1,000
has grown to nearly $328,000, in Phila-
delphia the $1,000 has become only $40
600, and that in both cases the amount is
ess than Franklin estimated it should
be. But as the natural philosophers of
Franklin's day generally fell short of the
sage in ingenuity, so, too the successive
boards of trustees have been far from
equal to him in business ability. 1t is
interesting to note, however, that the
two still exist, and that part OF the Bos-
ton reserve goes in the purchase of
public recreation ground to be known as
Franklin Park.

Married in Helena,

On Monday evening last, at the pleas
ant home of G. ]. Ringwald, on Howie
street, was enacted matrimonial service
wherein Herman Kemna and Miss Anna
NJ. Schulz We're declared man and wife.
Suffice then to say that in aquiet manner,
in the presence of few friends and rela-
tives, the happy pair were decreed by
the Rev. Father Palladino, of the Catho-
lie church, to be as one. In that i'm
pressiye manner, known only to the
denomination which that devout eccles-
iastic represents, he sped on the way DER
matrimo ony's titful sea, the two who are
now known as Mr.. and Mrs Kemna.
Apropos OF the occasion may be stated
that the presents offered were varied and
numerous. Particular attention is called
to those rendered by Mr.. and Mrs. Spitz,
ley, of Detroit, Michigan; Mr. and Mrs.
Spitzley, of Helena; Mr.. and Mrs. Chowen
of Great Falls, and relatives of the family.
Congratulations from all sources were
numerous, and in conclusion it is but
meet to remark that Of a bride raised In
Helena and the groom, one of the trusted
employees of Wallace g. Thornburgh's
establishment, naught but harmony, peace
and happiness can arise from such a
unison.-Helena Record.
