What Might Have Been.

Speaking of the Princess of Wales,
lie Figaro, of Paris, remarks: Her friends
say that often as night falls, in the large
hall of Sandringham, she remains for
hours watching the Goals reddening in the
Immense fireplace; she does not see what
passes around her; she listens to nothing
that is said TO her, neither the calling Of
the Princess Maud, nor the jokes of Prince
Albert. Her highness sleeps" say her
attendants, They deceive themselves.
Her ~highness meditates on the little
Alexandra, who beloved herself destined
to marry n petty German prince, very
domestic, very faithful, and who would
have died very happy after having had
many children.-Foreign Letter.

The Man Who Has Money.

The keeping of money is a harder job
than the earning of it. The old adage
may not always be true, that any fool can
make money, but only a wise man can
save it. Those who save money FIRE
quently cannot keep it, for their very
thrift frequently becomes blind. There
is perhaps no fact SO quickly known as
an individuals possession of more none
than he requires for his living. Men
who save are frequently vain of their sue.
cess at thrift, and let out the fact that
they are further ahead of the world thar
somebody else says or s1pposes. In a
little while, especially in our metro.
politan society, so called, the man
who has this money is mysteriously
waited upon. A bright minded man is
pursued. He is entreated to come
out n little more into the world and enjoy
himself, and not let his exceptional wit
and ability be hid under a bushel. Per
haps i'll the course of a few months his
own wife will acquaint him with the fact
that there is a great deal of money in
some stock, mine, mortgage or scheme;
the piper and steerer have got around on
the blindest side of the man and made his
wife believe that her husband can sud
denly become three times as well off as
he is If he would only take a sure chance,
as If any chance can be sure. Individu
els of his family will brighten up and say:

A writer in Nineteenth Century, taking
the cue of the new impulse to discuss
human culture, makes some suggestions
under the heading "H~omiculture." He
believes a good deal could be done by
directing public attention to the laws
that underlie improvement of stock. He
also urges that before a marriage permit
is allowed parties should be compelled to
submit to a medical examination, to show
that they are not laboring under heredi-
tary diseases. Beyond this he would have
the absolute prohibition of habitual Grim
inals from propagating their kind. These
suggestions have been to some degree
urged before by Dugdale, but they are
timely. No question is of more impor-
lance than the improvement of humanity.
We have traced our ills to ~heredity. Our
remedies must correspond. Probably all
suggestions at present will be crude and
premature; but it is nonsense 70 suppose
an evil exists without a possible cure

One ,vcniug. after a day of unusual ex
citcment on the old board. Hutch" sat
by a window in the Corn Exchange bank
The room was quiet, for business was
over, except that of the bookkeepers
One of the old gentlemau's friends came
in. He was in a happy mood. He didn't
sec Mr.. Hutchinson when he entered
The friend is an excellent tenor and FOND
of letting the world know it. AS he has
tied about the room he pitched his fine
voice to that sweetest American air
Way down on the Suwanee ribber.
The bookkeepers stopped their worl;
and listened and looked. The singer. who
was engaged in something else, did not
notice that he had an audience until he
turned about. Mr.. Hutchinson had arisen
from his chair and came to the end Of a
high desk. lie was resting his chin in
one hand md listening to the old song
The gentleman who had .hus entertained
him said; Hello; I didn't sec
you"
Mr.. Hutchinson replied: Don't let me
interrupt you. Keep right on"
That all there is to that"
Sing it again, - said the old man.
NO; I'll sing you Tile Old Kentucky
Home" And he did. When he had fl.
ished Mr.. Hutchinson was still standing
at the desk. What do you think OF
that?' asked the tenor.
Il like the other, " was the reply. Sing
me that again"
Way Down on the Suwanee Ribber"
was sung again in the room where awhile
before there was n commercial tourney of
the fiercest sort. The melody of the
plantation soothed the man who had been
the most active participant in the days
business. When it had been sung again
and the tick of the clock on the wall
sounded clear and sharp in the silence of
the room, Mr.. Hutchinson said:
I'D give all | am worth if l could sing
like you. | like them old songs. Why
don't everybody sing them2"
In less time than a minute he was on
the street, pushing along in the darkness,
bound somewhere, He never sits II

The children even of the slums and eel

doesn't last long. The class of which l

London slum is often at 20 peaked in

OBSCURE court or by street, lie is a
natural outcome of London's teeming low
life, as fungi is an outcome and belonging
of the cave. He doesn't want anything
cleaner or lighter, and when taken in hand
out of benevolence and transplanted to
more airy and less dingy apartments, has
been known to smoke the white walls, the
sooner to make them resemble those of his
old home.
Like all fungus growths, he lacks STAN

As to the leading actresses who nave
large and expensive wardrobes, they do
not need to give away or sell much cloth
ing. The exigencies of their profession
require large quantities of material to pro-
vide costumes for various parts, and their
good dresses are made ove and over
again and reappear in various forms, are
interchanged, mixed and mingled SO that
the original shape is unrecognizable.
There is no end to the uses that expert
costumers can make of good material,
which, whether the property of the rich
or the professional, need never go a-beR-
ging. Much of the discarded clothing of
rich ladies does find it's way to the stage
costumer, and reappears in the court
trains, the ball room robes, and other
wonders of the toilet that grace the fair
forms of walking ladies, and astound the
u~nthinking female in the audience at the
lavish expenditure which the manager has
made.
Much of the best material of the dis
carded dresses of rich ladies finds its way
to the dye house, and there assumes some
more marketable or fashionable color, OF
gets done in black, which is equally the
taste of the grave and gay, the lively and
severe. And thus in many ways the old
dresses of rich ladies are conserved and
contribute their mite to illustrate that
triumph of civilization that is approaching
when nothing goes to waste. The refuse
of the gas house is made into the most
gorgeous aniline dyes. and applied to
faded rich materials, to again reappear in
those delightful forms that ever fascinate
the gaze of man and absorb SO much of
the time and thoughts of women. Thus
ever the old is transformed into the new

genius and invention of man and woman.

In connection with these ideas IT Is proposed TO
kill dogs at the hospital by apparatus which as
phyxates them with carbonlc oxide gas. The society
diskes the present method OF killing dogs used at the
dog pound. The Society is thinking Of employing too,
a sensible and more painless method Of catching
dogs on the street. The doGcacher would a net,
