HOW CoNGREssMEN LIVE.

General E. S. Osborne, Congressman
from the 18th Pennsylvania District,
contributes an interesting article to
weekly periodical, from which the
following extracts are taken: "For q
Congressman to live in the Capital
that is, to make even very mediocre
figure in society he mnst spend an
amount equal to at least twice his sal
ary. should think 5000 a year
would hardly go far in giving man
anything like a prestige. | mean, OF
course, the average Congressman, the
person who has neither brilliancy nor
social standing to commend him. 1t
is fact, and q regrettable one, that
Congressman is measured by the
money he spends, not by his ability or
merit Take the average Congress
man who endeavors to live within his
modest salary, and he lives in Q very
unpretentious way. A cheap boarding
house, say from So to SO per week "a
boarding house equal to clerks board
ing house in Philadelphia, is his tenn
porary home. His social life is a mar
row one, as must necessarily be the
life Of Representative who has no
wealth to squander. He is fit prey
of the lobbyist, an easy subject for
shrewd jobbers, for he sees the others
! living in clover, and knows that it is
within his reach, and the temptation
is not always resisted. But take it all
in all, the Congressman do not always
live high not in the elegant style
which newspaper correspondents de-
light in picturing them. Merry few, it
any, cf them save any money out OF
their salary. 1t is possible for a msn
to live, but his standing is impaired,
and his prospects damaged beyond re-
pair. There is no reason why man
could not live within his means beyond
that of social pleasures"

branches;
White with blossoms as in the Spring
time,
Defying October's blast and Winter s
rime; IT. l.
o, apple tree! Beautiful tree, with wide
spreading branches.
Under thy o'erhanging snowy canopy
Children come to peep through at the
sunlit skies;
With jocund smiles and merrymaking
eyes, ...
Pass the day in mirthful play and
childish wiles.
In Autumn twilight wild birds come on
tired wings,
And still their Summer songs they
sing
AS, they balance DER the abandoned
swing,
Where the echo of childish laughter still
rings.
o, apple tree! How could linger under
thy branches,
To dream of those loved in prosperity
And weep DER those left in adversely.
o, apple tree! loath to leave thy fra
grant branches.

RAILROAD DEVELOPMENT.

The marvellous development of the
railroad system is gradually reaching
into every portion, even the remotest
of the globe. People who think of
Finland as sub-arctic country of.
bleak and forbidding aspect may be.
surprised to hear that several railroads
have already made a large part Of the.
region accessible. A Eew line, 100.
miles long, has just been opened to-
the heart Of the country in the midst
of great forests and perhaps the most
wonderful lake region in the world.
Sportsmen are now within less than =
days Journey from St. Petersburg of
central Finland, where there is the;
best of hunting and fishing and 20
hours of sunlight every summer day.
The most unique of railroads, how
ever, is still the little line in Norway,
North Of the Arctic Circle. carrying
the product Of far northern mines to
the sea, and famous as the only rail-
road that has yet invaded the Polar
Regions. 0. States.
