understanding that the books Will
properly be taken care of while in use

We have good book case and we
hope the citizens will look over their
books and donate the use of such as
they can best spare, to give our city
schools a healthy start.
If each citizen would donate the use

an extensive amount of reading matter,
with wide range of subjects would be
furnished our youth and encourage

"the knack" of imparting a vast

The young buck shot his arrow, the

such good buffalo runner the agent
must pay for the loss OF sucl, u person

four pounds Of sugar. He complied
with their demands, but the vengeful

"That was Sir Isaac Newton" said
Will.
Had he only one eye?" said Howard.
20, uncle is talking in riddles, said
Will.
Uncle smiled and went on. "Another
boy saw tea-kettle boiling, and as the
steam pressed the lid open, showing SO
much strength, he began to wonder
why steam could not be us ID to propel
steamboats, and railroad trains. So you
see how useful he was to Us. Howard,
YOU could not have enjoyed that nice
boat ride you had yesterday if this boy
had been double-eyed, Tor then he
would have seen too many other things
and forgotten the lesson he learned
from the tea-kettle."
Let me see, said Will; "that boys
name was-Isaac Watts"
20, no! that YVES our great hymn
writer. It was James Watt"
"Sure enough" said Will. "A little
knowledge is dangerous thing"
Il don't see just what you're driving
at, uncle" said Howard.
II do" replied Will. Somewhere il
the Bible it speaks of the eye as single
If thine eye b. single thy whole body
shall be full of light"
"That's it, dear boy. And don't you
see how it looks? IT, as we go through
life, we have only this one thought ir
our mind, the glory of God, We vii!
see his glory everywhere, and it will
be our greatest delight and our life
work to live SO that others, seeing oul
good works, may glorify our Father

NEST persons is that they sec too many

A Single Eye.

Did you ever see man with sin

oh, uncle, did you see man like
that i'll Africa?" asked Howard.

not live in Africa"
Il wonder if he looks like the one I

One of his eyes was good and looked
just where he meant it should, but the
other one turned right around and

II know of some people who had a

Hawthorne's tale Of 'The Gorgeous

who had a single eye in the middle of
their forelleads. How dreadfullv they

1T is very good thing, however, to
have a single eye," said Uncle Charles.
"Why, one could not see so WE'LL"
said Howard.
Nes, one can see better. Some
times one can see too much, unless he
has single eye. I know of boy who
once saw an apple fall to the ground.
How many boys had seen apples fall to
the ground before and nothing came of
it, for they saw too many other things
besides; but this boy saw the apple
fall to the ground, and this was ali he
saw. 1t was enough, for, because he
had single eye, he made great dis
coyery. He found out why the apple
fell to the ground, instead of falling
the other way"
"Why, uncle, nothing ever falls up"
"No; hut can you tell me why? You
know the earth is great ball, sus-
pended in space, and why should not
the apples and stones fall into space in
stead of falling upon the earth? Well,

PrOctOr's Last Work.

Prof. Richard A. Proc:o.'s last liter.
AIRY work was an article on plagues, hay.
ing been inspired by the prevalence o!
yellow fever in the South. A short
time after the article was written. its
able authors life was ended bv yellow
fever. From the paper we take the
following:
"The plague in England, described by
Defoe as IN eyewitness, though he was
but an infant in 1865 and 1866 when it
ragged, though terrible was not to be
compared for severity with the plague
of 1876; as many died, indeed, perhaps
more, but in much larger population.
1t began in the autumn of 1865; but
the cold winter of 1886 greatly
checked its ravages, and many hoped
that it would altogether sappear. But
with the early spring OF 1866 deaths
from the pestilence began to be an
nounced. until presently Ii began to be
recognized that the real attack had be-
gun. The symptoms were akin to
those observed during the plague of
Florence, but sometimes death came
even more rapidly. In July two thou
sand died weekly, but by September
the weekly number of deaths from thu
plague had risen to eight thousand.
The dead were buried together in GER
tain fields, then suburban, now within
London proper. There is one triangu-
lar space (not built on) between Bromp-
ton and Kensington, where large num-
bers were buried. Many of the dead
were buried i'll the fields at present oc-
cupied by the houses in Golden Square:
and it was noticed that during the
visitation Of cholera i'll 1879 the disease
seemed more malignant i'll that region
but whether this was due, as some sur.
missed, to the opening OF drains COM
municating with the trenches in which
the plague-stricken were buried in 1865
and 1866, seems open to consid erable
question.
From this enormous death-rate il
will be seen that the mortality of even
our worst yellow fever vi stations la:
been comparatively insignificant. This
country has never been visited by a
great plague. at least, We have hal
nothing to compare with the plaques
of the old world. Gibbon estimate
that during the thirty-years' plague
(known as the Justinian plague), which
spread from Persia to Gaul, no less
than one hundred millions of people
died.-4rkansd,r Trareieq.

Money Oddly Earned.

A curious occupation is that ola young
woman whom Mail and EIpress
writer ran across lately, who earns bread
and butter by being photographed
not for her face, and not for her figure,
except in so far as by the means Of
these she may the better display a
pretty gown.
1t has been business occupying
small number of women in Paris reg
ularly for some years back to pose tor
sketch artists OF before the camera for
the composition of the fashion plates
sent out with the more expensive
French fashion magazines. Nothing OF
the sort has been done in New York
until lately. American fashion publ
cations either copying their pictures
from French or English periodicals d.
rectly or topping out gowns with fancy
headpieces-a very barren and insane
fancy, commonly-or calling the first
girl who came in sight from the work
room to be immortalized.
Latter1y there has been demand for
fashion pictures which looked lifelike
and not wooden and the utmost diff
Guilty has been experienced in getting
better class Of art work in them. Wo-
men with pretty faces ares beginning to
be appealed to to lend their features and
their figures for the purpose. A
dimpled blonde whose husband is at the
head of large publishing house was IN
the very act of yielding to the charms
of new tea gown one day recently
when her husband interfered lest
the magazine readers might recog,,
nize the model. The professional
fashion model will be an institution
shortly. The young girl spoken OF IS
already in the field. She poses on I"
divan as carefully as for an academy
picture to bring out her own best points
and those of an evening gown. she
plays tennis, she poises on |alpenstock..
just now she is skating for next winters

weeks, and some of them hard ones.
The most outlandish of all, to an Eng
lish reader, is given him by the French
paper, the Courier lie lIllisaois. II
calls him "Un Accapateur." The
meaning of the word is monopolist,
or one who forestalls market. It is
not impossible that the title, though
coming from comparatively obscure
source, will go laundering down the
ages, giving Hutchinson Accapateur a
place in history by the side of Ptolemy
Euergetes (the benefactor), Fabius
Cunctator (the delayer), and Atilla the
Scourge. Such label is one of the
penalties of greatness.
