Taking a Bath,

When man announces in German

take bath II wave of incrGdulity. baf-
fled wrath and alert resentment sweeps
over the establishment. The chamber
maid rushcs after the waiter, and he
brings the manager, and finally the
proprietor comes up and looks the
guest over with an air of dim melan.

Are Children,s Parties Going Out.

Do you know it is really sad verify
that the children's party, with games
and romps, is an obsolete cumula-
ton of youth? That naive and inter-
esting event in childhood has COM
plete1y gone out. I was talking to
some youngsters on the subject lastweek
when, to my horror, one of them, age
six, informed me that she ''hated
games!' And her brother, who is three
years her senior, boldly declared, sit
was NO fun going to girls parties; "a
bit of bad English, by the way, for
which his mamma reproved him, though
the blase sentiment it covered passed
unnoticed. This young gentleman
further remarked that ''Regy" said so,
too. '.Kegy" is unknown to me, but I
feel I am in the minority, and those de-
ightful rcmps of stHunt the Slipper"
and kiss in the Ring" are terribly
out of date, if he says so" "But what
do you do when you go to your partiesY
I queried sob, they amt parties" he
said in a contemptuous tone. 'They
are balls, aren't they, mamma, and we
dance the cotillions, don't we, mammal"
'sOf course" assented mamma, with a
smile in my direction. "Well, you
poor, little, misguided mites of society, !"
I said to myself, ''you will never know
what jolly good time you have lost. ;"

Where Dickens Got His Genius.

In your issue of Tuesday last you re-
fer to statement of an Indian paper re-
garding the grandmother of Charles
Dickens. AS there are some inaccura-
cies in the story quoted by you,
especially SO far as it refers to the first
Lady Houghton, you may possibly al
low me to send you the correct version
as heard it many years ago from Lady
Houghton herself Old Mrs. Dickens
was not nurse, but housekeeper at
Crewe at the time of the first Lord
Crewe, the grandfather of the present
holder of the title, and of his sister, the
first Lady Houghton. Iwell remember
Lady Houghton speaking to me with
enthusiasm of Mrs Dickens wonderful
powers as story teller. It was her de-
light as child to listen to the tales
which the old lady was able to relate
with so much dramatic force and feeling
and it was with the greatest interest that
later on in Life, Lady Houghton recog-
nized in the illustrious author of "David
Copperield" the grandson of the favor
tie of her childhood. Old Mrs. Dickens
had one grievance which Lady Hough-
ton still recalled when she told me about
her. It was the conduct of her son
John, Charles father, against whose
idleness and general incapacity she was
never tired of inveighing. There have
been many conjectures as to the source
from which Dickens derived his wonder
full gift as story teller, but ] believe
that, until the publication OF the article
to which you refer, nothing has ever
been printed regarding his grandmother.
It is hardly far fetched fancy to sup
pose he inherited his special gift from
the old housekeeper ut Crewe.-[Lon-
don Daily News.

An Enterprising Lady.

During a trip through California,
this Summer, we stopped at a neat
farmhouse, where there was every
comfort and luxury of a home.
Among the members of the family
was a daughter Is or 10 years old.
In the morning we were invited to see
the work in which the young lady was
engaged. We found complete and
successful fowl-raising establishment.
A number of small Enclosures with q
capacity of 40 fowls each, had been
made. There was little house in the
center of each inclosure. The whole
cost of the Enclosures and houses could
not have been more than 5000. With
this investment she was raising 1000
chickens, and a perfect swarm of ducks
and turkeys, all in perfect health.
A breeder OF fancy fowls had sent out
200 of his choice chicks to be reared.
for which this young lady is to receive
ST. so apiece, or $500. Without any
unforeseen accident this little estab-
lishment will net it's brave owner, from
$3.50 to $1,000 this season. This is
better than competing with a China
man in hot kitchen over burning ba-
con and cabbage. 1t is better than to
struggle with the needle for afashiona-
BILE living in field already overfull,
and it is q thousand times better than
idleness in shabby gentility. What
this energetic young lady is doing thou
sands of others can do. 4 beginning
can be made in small way, and add.
tions car be made to buildings and in
closures as the profits will pay for
them. Here is pleasant andprofta-
bic business for hundreds of idle peo-
pie who are wishing for something to
do. A little energy, enterprise, and
courage is the principal capitalre required
for start. With industry success will
result.-Marysville tCal.) Appeal.
