A Man Whose Name the World Honors

The following, according to the
London Standard, is a boys COM
position about "Clumbls: :" "Clum-
bus was a man who could make an
egg stand on end without breaking
it. The King of Spain said to
Clumbus: "Can you discover Amer
ica?" eyes," said Clumbus, ii you
will give me ship So he got a
ship and sailed over the sea in the
direction where he thought Amer
lea ought to be found. The sailors
quarreled, and said they believed
there was no such place. But after
many days the pilot came to him,
and said: Columbus, l see land. "
Then that is America" said
Clumbus. When the ship got near,
the land was full of black men.
SIS this America?" "Yes, it is,"
said they. Then the chief said: 81
suppose you are Clumbus?'' You
are right" said he. Then the chief
turned to his men and said: "There
is no help for it; we are discovered
at last"

An Accommodating Railroad.

Several days ago stranger made
his appearance at the Union Depot
and asked officer Button how long
before the Grand River Valley train
would 60 out.
"In about 20 minutes" was the
reply.
"Then I'll have time to get a
drink, won't I?;
you will"
"That's good. I always prefer
to travel on stiff horn of whisky" "
He returned in five minutes, wip-
ing his mouth on the back OF his
hand and asked:
Has my train gone yet?'
mo, sir; you have IA minutes
to spare"
"That's good; guess I'll 60 back
for little brandy"
When he again returned he. felt
in good spirits, and ascertainlng
that he still had six minutes to
spare, he said:
Now that's what l cal liberal
and III lay in one more drink.
The last one proved more than
he could bear up under, and he was
not seen again for three hours
Then he came round with wabble
in his gait and an uncertain look
in his eyes. and asked
SHAY, what time does that Gran
River Valley train 60 out?'
''In about four hours" ]"
"Fo' hours? Why, that'll give
me time to get drunk agin; mos

"Yes."

Petty W orries.

What a blessed thing it is that
we can forget. To-day's troubles
look large, but a week hence they
will be forgotten and buried out OF
sight. Says one writer: "lf you
keep a book and put down the
things that worry you, and see what
becomes of them, it will be ben
eft to you. You allow thing to
annoy you as you allow fly to
settle on you and plague you; and
you lose your temper (or rather get
it t)-for when men are surcharged
with temper they are said to have
lost it-and you justify yourself
for being thrown off your balance,
and put it down in a little book,
and follow out and ascertain what
becomes of it, you would see what
a fool you were in the matter. The
art of forgetting is blessed art
but the art of overlooking is quite
as important. And if we should
take time to write down the origin,
progress and outcome of a few OF
our troubles, we would be so dis
qusted with the fuss made over
them that we should be glad to drop
such things and bury them at once
in eternal forgetfulness. Life is toe
short to be worn out in petty wor'
ries, hatred and vexation. The
Eureka.

through whose country flow the
Senegal and Gambia rivers. The
bivalves are taken from the branch

during high time. Here is Man
digo bill of fare which Reade, the
explorer, leaves on record for the
amusement of the curious "Then

sauce on toast; stewed lguana,

interior); few agreeable plates
of fried locusts, land crabs and
other crustaca; the breasts OF
mermaid, or manatee, the grand
.bonne- bouche Of the repast; some
boiled alligator and some hippo
potamus steaks" While this din
ner does not equal in courses some
of the elaborate feasts of civilized
lands, certainly no one will say
that it lacked variety.
Lotus seeds form one Of the most
common dishes known to the Barri
of Central Africa. The pods when
gathered are bored and strung on
reeds and hung in the sun for dry

Along the upper Nile another wing
of the Barri tribe bleed their cattle
monthly and cook the blood with
their flour and meal. They esteem
this luxury and the dish is eaten
with great relish.
There are thousands of queer
! dishes among the tables Of the
world. Captain Hall, the Arctic
explorer, found it necessary to hive
on raw blubber to keep his health
amid the cold of the northern win
ters, and he has left on record the
statement that it's flavor was by nc
means disagreeable. The courts OF
Kings have known viands as curious
as any mentioned in this article

Cleveland was born IN h.aren,
and this cold, raw month has been
a favorable one for Democratic
Presidents. 1t was in March that
Andrew Jackson first saw the light.
Jackson's father was an Irishman,
and it was long a question in the
minds of. many as to where he was
born. One party said he was born
in North Carolina, another claimed
that he was born in South Carolina
and third argued that he was born
at sea, off the coast of one of those
States. Jackson himself thought
he was born in South Carolina, and
at the close of his famous nullifi-
cation proclamation he used the
expression, "Fellow- citizens of my
native state" Parton proves, how
ever, that he was born in North
Carolina, and the truth of it seems
to be that Andrew Jackson carried
to his grave a wrong supposition as
to where he first saw the light.
John Tyler was born in March,
and James Madison first saw tho
light Of day on the 18th of March,
l1751. President Cleveland is the
only President who was ever born
on the 18th of the month, but we
have two Presidents who were born
ON the 18th, and one of these was
Van Buren, who was born in De-
cember, and the other was Arthur,
who saw his first light in October.
The December Presidents are Van
Buren, and Johnson. Garfield
Pierce and Polk were born in No
vember; Lincoln, Harrison and
Washington in February and Grant,
Buchanan, Monroe and Jefferson
in April. John Quincy Adams
squeaked his first cry in July, and
Zach Taylor came bowling into this
world in September.
Grover Cleveland is the only
clergyman's son who has ever been
elected President, though Arthur's
father was a clergyman. He was
not, however, elected President.
The fathers of the Virginia Presi-
dents-W Washington, Jefferson Mad
ison and Monroe-were planters.
John Tyler's father was lawyer
and a statesman, and John Adams,
the father of John Quincy Adams,
was by profession lawyer. Grants
father was a tanner, Hayes father
merchant, and the fathers of Gar
field, Lincoln, Pierce, Fillmore,
Polk, Van Buren, and Jackson were
farmers. The chances for the pres
idency in the past have thus been
with the farmers boys, and out of
the eighteen Presidents elected by
the people only one has been apar-
sons son.
President Cleveland never went
to college, and Washington, Jack
son, Van Buren,, Taylor, Fillmore,
Lincoln and Johnson had no col
lege training. John Adams was
educated at Harvard, Thomas JEFF
ferson studied Latin at William
and Mayr, and Madison probably
used pony translations while he
was at Princeton. Monroe and
Tyler were also students at William
and Mary, at Williamsburg, and
John Quincy Adams graduated at
Harvard. Harrison was college
bred. Pierce was good mathe-
matical student at Bowdoin Col
lege and Buchanan went to school
at Dickinson College. Gen. Grant
was the only President who had a
military education, though a mum.
!. Der of the Presidents were soldiers
!, He went to school at West Point
Rutherford Hayes was educated II
: Ohio, and his school was Kenyor
College. Garfield studied at Will
Jams, Massachutts, and President
Arthur was schooled at Union Col
lege.

Age Of Fishes.

Grows are commonly said to live
for hundred years and turtles are
said to have even longer life; but
if Professor Baird be right the great
est animal longevity is possessed
by fishes. Professor Baird says
that fish has no maturity, there
is nothing to prevent it from living
indefinitely and growing contlnu-
ally. He cites in proof a pike, llv-
ing in Russia, whose age dates
back to the fifteenth century. In
the royal aquarium at st. Peters
burg there are fish that have been
there 14O years.-The Twin Cross.
