How to Write ON Ice with Ink.

Not many of you. my children, will
care to write your letters on ice, even
during tho summer months. But was
rather struck with the novel idea, when
boy of the red school house told the
dear little schoolma' am bit of news
that lately had come to this country
from Austria. 1t appears that Francis
Joseph, the Emperor of Austria, has a
country scat near Vienna, and on this
fine royal estate is Lake which in win
ter is used as skating pond. Well,
during ono of the latest Austrian 'cold
snaps" an expert Vienna gentleman
went skating there, with little rcser-
voir OF ink adjusted to the back of his
skate in such way as to allow the ink
to flow out in fine steady stream.
Then off he started, and before he had
skated long there appeared in hi, rapid
track tho name of tho Crown Princess.
beautifully and plainly written upon
the ice.-[St. Nicholas.

In writing of his experience with Ital-
Ian seamon, Mr.. Kcauo gives them a
frst-ratc character; but what will in
forest the reader most is what no has to
say of tho boys among the crow. There
were nine of these on board from twelve
to twenty-one years of age.
These young boys serve for period
OF seven years, beginning at pay Of
three shillings a month, which is in
creased every year until it becomes
nine shillings a month in the last year
OF their apprenticeship. They are
brought up in an extremely hard man
ner; only those who are in the last year
of their tina are allowed to live below.
Tho other poor little wretchcs sloep
anywhere, two or three of them in the
galley during their watch below at
night.
They havo no proper mess, but the
cook used to give them a great pan of
iood from tho remnants of our mess and
the cabin. 1t was generally mixture
OF maccaroni, boiled beans, boiled corn
meal, stockfish, olive oil, and scrapings
from every other dish of tho day.
The five youngest boys would find the
dryest place on deck, and then sit
around it, with one spoon among thom
all. Each one would take one spoonful
and hand the spoon to his highland
neishbor; so the spoon would go round
until tho food all disappeared, each
one having taken the same number Of
spoonluls.

1t has long been thought an excellent
thing to mix silver with tho other metal
when bell was to be cast, and many
pious persons have rejoiced at the
thought that the silvery chime of their
church bell was in part due to their
gifts. Now comes writer in an Eng
fish scientific paper with this paragraph:
II once asked a foreman in we'll
known bell foundry whether putting
silver In melting pot was of ad van
tage. He replied of great adj vantage--
TO the founder, as tho silver sinks to

Twill All Como hight
On, many is the sorrow we are called on To
meet,
And many is the bitter that is mingled with
the sweet,
And many is the shadow stealing close
behind the light,
But do your duty, lad and lass; twill all
come right.
Oh, many is tho kindness by ingratitudo
repaid,
And many is the trusting heart that finds its
trust betrayed,
And many is the bud Of hope whose promise
yields to blight
But do your duty, lad and lass; twill all
come right.
For all our griefs and troubles are but
blessings in disguise,
And fiercest storms leave sweetest air, and
calmest, bluest skies,
And brightest stars are always born Of very
darkest night,
So do your duty, lad and lass; twill all
come right.

How wa,p. ventila.e Their Home,

How Wasps Ventila:c Their HONEY,
An English gentleman lately took a
small wasps' nest, about tho size of an
apple, and, after Supplying its inmates,
placed it in largo case inside of his
house, leaving an opening for ogress
through the wall. Here tho nest was
enlarged to foot in diameter, holding
thousands of wasps, and no was able to
watch their movements. and noted one
now fact-namely, their systematic at
tention to ventilation. In hot weather,
from four to six wasps were continually
stationed at tho hole of egress, and,
while leaving space for entrance or exit,
created steady current of fresh air by
the exceedingly rapid motion of their
wings. After long course of thi,
vigorous exercise, the ventilators wero
relieved by other wasps. During cool
weather only two wasps at time wero
usually thus engaged. -[Golden Days.
