a Friend I'm Need.

In a school section in Northumber-
land county where a young lady is
engaged as q teacher, there has been
quite a dispute as to whether it
would be prudent to re-engage her
or not. 1t was claimed that she had
too many admirers of the opposite
sex, and that the section had thus
been deprived of o portion of her
time that should have been spent in
the discharge of her duties as a
teacher. Accordingly. at school
meeting the Trustees had an agree
ment draw up to the effect that she
should not keep company during
school hours. as her undivided time
should be devoted to the school.
Upon her refusing to sign this
agreement ii was decided to leave it
to u vote of the meeting as to
whether she should be compelled to
sign it or not. A show of hands was
taken, which resulted in q tie,
when the chairman. being q young
man, gave the casting vote in her
favor.-Toronto Globe.

Shooting az Truckee.

At Truckee two gamblers. Edward
Frost and Thomas Redmond. had a
dispute in a saloon which eliminated
in Frost shooting Redmond with a
pistol and fatally wounding him.
The Republican says: All efforts
have been unavailing to ascertain
the cause of the row between the two
men or the motive which caused the
shooting. Redmond will say moth
ing and has refused 10 tell his name,
age or place of nativity. All he
said was that it was cowardly. He
wanted to see Frost aud talk to him.
Frost will say nothing and refuses to
talk of the affair. The only witness
heard the men having words and
saw scufliDg, the next thing be
noticed was the pistol shot aud the
men On the floor. He could not say
what the men were talking about.
but should guess that it had re-
ference to some fight or row which
had occurred previously. He saw
Frost strike Redmond first. and then
they grappled and both fell, then
the pistol shot, and Frost arose and
walked out without saying a word.

A young man on board q West

some days since that it is unwise to
try to swap horeses amid stream.
He had devoted himself sssiduously
during the earlier stages Of the trip
TO Q pretty yellow haired, blue-eyed

charge. He was in the act Of point
ing out to her the slopes Of Duuder-
berg, when his glance fell on q
woman with merry Irish eyes. a
fresh color, and o smile that checked
his eloquence on his lips. He
watched the newcomer moro and
more intently for some minutes,
then made an excuse to the blue
eyes beside him and left the deck.
He was gone but q few minutes and
came back, having picked up, dear
knows where, a handful of succory
blossoms. Stepping with what
grace he could muster up to the
fresh enslaver Of his fancy he held
out the flowers with q "You drop
ped these. did you not?" calculated
to lead to further conversation.
There was q moment Of surprise and
hesitation, during which many eyes
watched the outcome Of the game.

said she of the Irish eyes. and in
any ease blue is for blondes" She
handed the flowers to the deserted
sweetheart, whose face had grown
perplexed and whose innocent eyes
had begun to fill at the open trans

looked off shoreward and was not

What's the use in worrying,
of hurrying,
And scurrying,
Everybody iurrying,
And breaking up their rest,
When everything Is teaching us,
Preaching and beseeching us
To settle down and end the fuss,
For quiet ways are best.
The rain that trickles down in showers
A blessing brings to thirsty flowers,
And gentle zephyrs gather up.
Sweet fragrance from each trimming cup,
There's ruin in the tempest's path,
There's ruin in q voice OF wrath,
And they alone IRE blest
Who early learn to dominate
Themselves, their violence abate,
And prove BY their serene estate
That quiet ways are best.
Nothing's gained by worrying.
BY hurrying,
And scurrying;
With f~retting and with iurrying
The temper's often lost;
And in pursuit Of some small prize
We rush ahead and are not wise,
And find the unwonted exercise
A fearful price has cost;
IT'S better far ~ join the throng
That do their duty right along,
Reluctant they TO raise a fuss
Or make themselves ridiculous.
Calm and serene in heart and nerve,
Their strength Is always in reserve,
And nobly stands each test;
And every day and all about,
BY scenes within and scenes without,
We can discern, with ne'er a doubt,
That quiet ways are best.

A Clever Speaker.

A good instance of the factotum's

there. There we're so many noted

at the end of the list, and
as he arose to speak a band be-

and the audience commenced to
flock to the music. He had travelled
O good distance TO make that speech,
and he was not going to deliver it to
empty benches. So he jumped to-
ward the Chairman, shook his fist at
him and told him that he thought
he was a gentlemen, but that
just here the Chairman, amazed at
such language, arose and confronted
the speaker. Music no longer
had charms for the people. They
thought they saw the prospect of q
fight, and every man rushed toward
the stage. As soop as the factotum
had the audience compactly in front
Of him he smiled blsndly. begged
the Chairman's pardon and told his

BABIES.
The Cruel Puni-hment rhey are
made 90 Undergo.


The babies in Japan have sparkling
and funny tufts OF hair; they
look so quaint and old-fashioned, ex-
actly like those doll babies that are
sent over here to America. Now, in
our country very young babies are apt
to put everything in their mouths-a
button, a pin, or anything goes
straight to the little rosy, wide-open
mouth, and the nurse or mamma must
always watch and take care that baby
does not swallow something danger
GUS. But in Japan they put the small
babies right down in the sand by the
door of the house, or on the floor, but
| never saw them attempt to put any
thing in their mouths unless they were
told to do so, and no n seemed to be
anxious about them. When little
bows or girls in Japan are naughty
and disobedient they must be pun
ished, Of course; but the punishment
is very strange. They are very small
pieces of rice paper, called moxa, and
these are lighted with a match and
nut upon the finger, or hand, or ann
OF the naughty child, and they burn a
SPOT on the tender skin that hurts
very, very much. The child screams
with the pain, and the redhot moxa
sticks to the skin for a moment or two
and then goes out, but the smartinl
burn reminds the child OF his fault: !
