A LITERARY SCHEME.
DY DWIGHT BALDWIN.

With decidedly intellectual lace, was
engrossed in the columns of a literary
journal.
The other was rolling cigarette and
watching his companion with ill-con-

What do you see in the stuff you
call literature Tremaine?" asked the
latter, at length, yawning YEARLY.
Everything, friend Ste. Marie. 1t

Marie.
"Yes, to my shame. This wine,

like vinegar, when remember that it's

Tremaine shrugged his shoulders and
pursed up his lips, but at the same
time reflled his glass.

"It's right here-that is, the germ is.
Listen" And in ell-modulated,
cultivated voice, Tremaine read the fol-
lowing paragraph:
NJ. Fortunat, the exbanker, has
turned Socialist. Instead of distribut-
ing his vast fortune among his fellows,
however, he has written q book eX-
pounding the subject. 1t will soon be
issued from the press of Barreau &
Say. Nj. Fortunat is writer of no
mean ability and a treat may be an
ticipated.
"How will you accomplish it ?" asked
Ste. Marie.

Secure one of the millions he ought
by rights to give away"
"Not at ALL"
"Nonsense! Your literary scheme is
too deep for me-"
Il know that, and won't trouble YOU
with the details. Follow my instruc-
tions, intrust me with the spending of
your hundred napoleons, and well
both be rich before the racing season
opens"
That evening Jean Ste. Marie, dis
guised as porter, was drinking wine
in little shop opposite the tall build
ing occupied by Messrs. Barreau & Say
as a publishing house.
Just at dusk he saw the numerous
employees of the vast establishment
pour into the street.
Soon the wine-shop was thronged
with them.
The disguised Ste. Marie listened to
their conversation, and, selecting one
whom he understood TO be employed
in the bindery, called him aside.
Fair speech and a bottle of good
wine set the artisan ticking, and the
false porter soon learned that the book

The Sacred Congregation of the Inquisi-

Rev. DIR. Bolles, of New York, in his SER

religion. He said that but a small part of

The system of self-education for the min

the general biblical, theological and eccles-

scribed course of study can be made more
complete and satisfactory, and fairer test
of actual attainment by the formation of
what he calls ''itinerant clubs,n that is,
clubs including candidates for the ministry,
which shall bring together the examiners
and candidates once, twice or thrice during
the conference year in some central place,

About Decades.
Boston Globe.

The year $780, not the year 1885, will be
the closing year of the ninth decade of the
nineteenth century. The year 1 was the
first year of the Christian era, and the first
decade was not completed until the close
of the tenth year. The year 1889 is the
1SS9th year of the Christian era, and the
present decade will not be completed till
day of December, 1890. The tenth decade
will begin on the first day of January, 1891,
and end on the 31st day of December, 1900
1t is very common error to suppose that
the present century will end with the close
of the year 1899. 1t will end only with the
last day of the last month of the year 1900,
and the twentieth century will not begin
until Jan. 1, 1901. 1t is just as well to be
accurate in keeping the accounts of our
transactions with Father Time.

Some gay girls in school in Macon, Ca,
thought to have some fun with one of the
professors, who is young and devoted to
girls attire and dropped it from the win
dow above the professors room SO that it
would fall past the window at which he
usually sat. AS the dummy was dropped
one of the jOkers gave. piercing shrek

white face, bent anxiOusly over the pros

tempted to lift it. Then he turned and
went quickly to his room with n very red
face, while the wretched girls giggled ex-

The handsomest and lowest priced of our
ornamental stones, and one which has been
introduced most extensively. is the So
called Mexican onyx or tecalli, as it was
first called, from the town of that name in
the State of Pueblo, Mexico, where it is
found. The deep colors are richer than
those of any marble known, and its wavy
stalagmitic structure and the high polish
which il can take have made it popular
throughout the whole civilized world. With
a metal mounting the effect ia greatly
enhanced. 1t occurs in almost unlimited
quantities, and fully $4,000 worth has
been used in the United States for table
tops, mantels, vases, etc.

Little P is learning great deal

shepherd folding his lambs in his bosom
has particularly impressed his childish
imagination, and his tendency TO recur
to it in conversation was accepted as
proof that his lessons were sinking
deep into his heart.
do you know how the shepherd puts
his lambs in his bosom?" no asked his
sister.
"Why, yes" said she, "he just takes
them and puts them there"
But he has to kill EN-, and cook EN-

MATIN SONG.

The bee is beginning TO hum in the flower,
And the blossom 10 break on the vine;
The clock in the steeple is striking the hour,
And the sun is beginning TO shine
Beginning 20 shine on the factory tower,
And to kindle the crest of the pine.
There's wee wren that sings at your pane:
Twice, thrice, she has sung there to you;
woke, and / wondered, so sweet was tht
strain,
But the duslIy wings huttered and few;
She has gone where the reapers are gleanina
the grain,
While the berry is swollen with dew.
Rise up, little heart; oh be joyful, and rise
While the morning is misty and red,
For the sun will grow mighty and blaze in
the skies
And the primrose will bow down her head:
The hyla will slumber and sleep where hesies.
And the locust will shrill there instead.
Rise up, for the owl is adoze,
His eyeballs are dazzled with day.
oh, come! for the waters are crimson and
rose
Where the river winds down TO the bay,
And the little brown boat, where the sweet
corn CLOVIS,
Is waiting to bear us away.
