Lord Sac kvlIIs's Queer Will.

A London special to the Phila'
delphia Press says f: In his will
Lord Sacllvllle beg ueatbed all bi,
personal estate to the seven maids
of honor of the queen, each OF
whom thus inherits large fortune
The furniture, pictures aud bric'a-
brac alone of Knowle House, which
are to be sold for the benefit OF the
maids OF honor, will certainly
fetch at least s25O,OOO. A lot of
guessing is done as to whatinduced
Lord Sackville to make so queer
an addition to the list Of queer
English wills. 1t is surmised that,
deeply indebted to some maid OF
honor to whom he did not wish to
call special attention, he hit upon
the plan Of making them all rich.
Lord Sackvllle had quarreled with
his elder brother, Earl Delaware,
about the possession OF Knowle
House, and ia the course of the
quarrel got out with his whole
family. Knowle House and the es'
tates settled with it worth $4,000
a year, now 90 by entail to Sack
Vile West. the British miuister at
Washington, who is now Lord
Sackville.

An Underuround Route.

Ia the town of Sutro, New, there
is a silver mine the main gangwsy
of which runs from beneath that
place to Virginia City, four miles
distant. Frequently this stunned
route" as it is called, is used by
Sutro parties desiring to 60 to Vir-
ginia City theatres. The parties
enter the tunnel almost at their
own doors, Chamber into a car
drawn by several mules and are
carried the full length of the tunnel
IN a comparatively short space OF
time. Once there they are holsted
up a shaft 1,649 feet deep, issuing
within a few minutes walk of the
Opera House. The route is cool IN
summer and warm in winter. The
cars are so clean that the best Of
dresses may be worn without dis
astrous result. 1t is novel way,
certainly, of going to a theatre, al
though somewhat trying to o timld
beginners nerves.

A Rash Prediction Fulfilled.

When the roads forming the line
between Philadelphia and Harris
burg, Penn, were chartered in 1850,
and town meetings were held to
discuss their practlcablllty, the
Hon. Simon Cameron, while max
Ing a speech in advocacy OF the
measure was so far carried away
by his enthusiasm as to make the
rash prediction that there were
persons within the sound OF his
voice who wonld live to see a
passenger take his breakfast in
Harrisburg and his supper in
Philadelphia on the same day. A
friend of his on the platform said
to him after he had finished,
That's all very well, Simon, to tell
the boys. but you and l are no
such internal fools as 10 believe It,"
They have both lived to travel the
distance in a little over TWO hours.

Look after the Comfort Of the Chill
dren.
From the Philadelphia Press.

FROM rhe Pnllaoelpnla fress'
Little children often suffer from
a want OF discrimination. The
warmest and Goitest Of crib blankets
are bought to cover them, while an
old thin one is considered good
enough to lie under the little bo-
dies that so easily get chilled
And during the day children are
thoughtlessly exposed in a score Of
ways. During these chilly even
ings at seaside places the little
ones are to be seen in thin cotton
or muslin frocks, with sun-bOnnets
of similar texture, while the north
wind, or the east wind, or a keen
blast OF both com bined, has sent
the adults back to their lodging in
search of warm wraps. Because
children never complain of cold,
they are supposed not to feel it OF
be iDjuriously affected by it. The
average child never acknowledges
that it is tired, sleepy, hot or cold.
1t is inexperienced in physical SEN
sations, and though feeling uncom'
Portable in some vague way, it can
not puta name to the precise cause.
Each change of temperature should
be noted in the interests of a child,
and some suitable change made IN
its dress, The seeds OF consump-
tion are often sown in the little
frame by neglect Of just such mat
ters as these, trivial as they may
appear.

Preachers Sons.
From the PHILADELPHIA Time.

From the Philadelphia Times.
Preachers sons have played a
great part in tbe public life OF the
nation. Grover Cleveland's father
was a preacher; so was the father
of Levi p. Morton. lie, like
Arthur's father, was Vermonter.
1t IS a curious fact, too, that these
preachers sons who have attained
great distinction have come of New
England stock, where religion is
severe and a preachers life very
exacting. IL is an old adage that
preachers sons are usually the
worst boys in the neighborhood,
but 1t is also true that the self-de-
NAL they are required to practice
and the restraints which. are
thrown around them often produce
men of great individuality and
strength of character.

The Practical Blessings Of Sunday

consideration, and they called our
attention to the fact thaC they
could not begin to keep up with
their American orders. The day
came when they got it through
their English heads that they must
reduce the price, but the pushing
Disston was still several days
ahead of them with another reduc.
ton. He kept ahead Of them. The
quality of his goods was so much
superior to theirs that he WAS sure
of the trade, and when the day
came that Spear q Jackson offered
their saws at less than Dlsst0n's
there was no longer a market here
for them. / remember that about
1870 we had odds and ends of 5. &
j. saws on hand that we wanted to
close out for good and all, but even
the smallest cross roads dealer was
too we'll posted TO buy them, except
at a price where he could sell far
below the Disston.
And what has the tariff done for
us on prices : Ask any carpenter
you meet. If he was working at
the trade 20 years ago he will tell
you that he can buy hand-saw to-
day Tor s1.25, better than was the
English saw that cost 81 then.
And if he can remember the cost of
goods in the sos, he will tell you
that in spite of our iniqultOus
tariff he paid twice as much for a
poorer saw in those days.
But where are the "markets of
the world y Let us never forget
the happy phrase, lest our enemies
fall upon us and smlte us, foot,
horse and dragoon. What are we
doing for the markets of the
world!
A friend who is at the head of a
large saw factory was complaining
to me lately of the cutting going on
in prices, and he ended with, "It
it were not for our export trade we
would not rum"
"Do you have much of said
trade ~ | asked.
"It is where we get our living,'
he said sit takes more than one.
halt of our product. and is grow
ing"
My heart was at ease. We were
still doing something with the
markets of the world, and every
man who used a saw IN America
was benefited by the tariff laws
that had enabled saw factories to
rise and employ thousands of men
who are earning a living, and
spending their wages to support
American merchants, American
doctors, American lawyers, Ameri-
can gardeners and farmers, instead
of doing all of this for Englishmen.
Possibly do not love England as
I ought. may be prejudiced
against her; but, if 50, my mother
is to blame for that. She never
raised me on English milk.

ADVICE FOR WIVES.

BE gentle and firm with children.
Beware of the first disagreement.
Beware of meddlers and tale
bearers.
Learn to speak In a gentle tone
of voice.
Learn to deny yourself and pre-.
fer others.
Avoid moods and pets and fits Of
sulkiness.
Never charge q bad motive, if a
good one is conceivable.
Learn to govern yourselves and
to be gentle and patient
Learn to say kind and pleasant
things whenever opportunity offers.
Never speak or act in anger 10.
til you have prayed over your
words or acts.
Remember that, valuable as Is
the gift of speech, silence is often
more valuable.
Meyer retort a sharp or angry
word. 1t is the second word that
makes the quarrel.
Study the characters of each and
sympathize with all their troubles,
no wever small.
Remember that you are married
to a man, not to a god; be pre-.
pared for imperfections.
Do not neglect little things, if
they can affect the comfort Of
others in the smallest degree.
Don't be always teasing him for
money, and keep the household
expenses well within your allow
ance.
Once in q while let your husband
have the last word; it will crafty
him aud be no particular loss to
you.
Do not expect too much from
others, but forbesr and forgive, as
you desire forbearance and for.
giyeness yourself.
Read something in the papers
beside fashion notes and society
columns; have some knowledge of
what Is going on In foreign coun-
tries.
Eyen If your husband should
have no heart, he is sure to have q
stomach, so be careful to Intricate
the marriage yoke with well-cooked
dinners.
Guard your tempsrs, especially
in seasons OF Ill health, irritation
and trouble, and soften them by
prayers and sense Of your own
shortcomings and errors.
And first be as kind and cour.
teous to your husband as you we're
when he was your lover. Then
you used to look up to him do not
now look down upon him.
Let him know more than you do
once in a while; it keeps up his
self.respect, and you are none the
worse for admitting that you are
not actually infallible.
Respect your husbands relations,
especially his mother-she is none
the less his mother because she iy
your mother.in law ; she loved him
before you did.
BE companion to your husband
if he be a wise man; and II he il
not, try to make him become your
companion. Raise his standard (;
do not let him lower yours.

THE OLD STORY.


You may call it Irritation, or what not,
Bat don't see that was to blame.
How could know that you loved me,
When YOU never once mentioned the
same
I've walked in the starlight with many
And have risked my life on the bay,
Yet among them I've never found any
But had something decided to say.
You thought that your silence had told
me
The silence that's golden we've heard;
But the girl of to-day prefers silver,
Coined INTO words sweet and absurd;
There are lovers whom there's no mis-
taking,
Whose language leaves no one in doubt;
There are others who leave ones heart
aching
For a word there's no living without.
But since the sweet year has grown older,
And you've failed as a special pleader,
Shall / be left out in the cold, sir,
Because was not a mind-readeri
You blame me, think, without reason;
If you really had something to say,
What matters the time OF the season
Why can't we be hsppy-to-day

Suicide of a Young Lady on Her

A correspondent writes to the
Richmond state of Saturday from
Powbatau Courthouse as follows ;
A gloom has been cast over our
unusual quiet community by the
suicide of Miss Mamie Gordan, the
daughter Of the late W. II. Cor
dan. This young lady was to have
been married Wednesday last at

popular and deserving yo 6 man,
residing in Cumberland county
Miss Gordan was missed from her
residence a short time before the
hour for her marriage. A search
was instituted and she was tracked
to the Appomattox river, a dis
tance of two and a hslf miles (the
ground was thoroughly wet from
the recent rain.) The river was
dragged and the body found about
fiftysyards below this point where
abe entered the stream. Mr.. Flip

figures and CIOaks.
From the Philadelphia Times.

Every few days advertisements
appear for young ladies of good
figure to try on cloaks. Good
figures are rarer than many sup
pose and girls who can ill this
position are in demand. They
must be fairly tall, be well develop
ed, graceful, and have what is call
ed "styIe." Such girls are, OF
course, in demand as wives; hence
the scarcity. Nearly all the lead
ing dry goods stores have one OF
several young ladies who do moth
ing at this season but try on cloaks
and wraps, and many an angular
Or pudgy customer buys garment
under the delusion that it will look
as we'll on them as on the Hebe
selected for this purpose.
