Smoking.

Give us q candid answer to this

practice of smoking may be a good
one-we are not deciding on that
point-but it should not be INDUCED

on the steamboats,, in the halls, mark
cts, stores, offices, or any place where
it is likely to be disagreeable and un
healthy to those who have to fire.
quent or be in such places. If a
man will smoke, and desires to be
considered q gentleman and to show
that politeness to others he would
expect under other or similar cir
cumstances, he should confne his
smoking to his own room or premls-
es, take himself unto the solitude of
some lonely place, or hire boat and
go far enough out not to annoy or
distress his friends. Smoking in
company is impolite, disagreeable
and should be avoided.

General spinner's Plea for the Birds.

General Spinner's Plea for the Birds.
The venerable but vigorous Gen
eral +. E, Spinner, formerly United
States treasurer, writes from his
camp at Pablo Beach, Florida, to his
friends, the boys of America, to spare
the birds. Il we'll recollect,' he says,
"that I once shot robin. He flew
some distance and fell in the tall
grass, / went and picked him up
and found that / had inflicted ia
tai wound in his breast. The poor
wounded bird looked up into my
face SO imploringly that it caused
me to shed tears, and now, to-day,
at the age of eighty-fve years, I am
haunted by the pitiful, imploring
look of that poor innocent, dying
bird, and feelings of deep remorse
come over me whenever l see a rob
in. l would be willing to make great
sacrifices to be made guiltless of the
wanton murder of that poor innocent
bird" The General makes special
plea for that sweetest Of all Ameri-
can songsters, the Unnamed catbird.
But as for the English sparrow, he
says with righteous wrath; "Kill
him wherever you find him, in sea-
son and out Of season. He has never
been known to do any good and is
Of no use.-Give him no quarter, but
60 for HIM as you would for any
other thief
