ONE HOUR.
What Can Be Done in that Time for
Your Children.

Your Children.
A few years ago gentleman met rich
merchant, Mr.. Bowen, who was leaving
his Office at o'clock in the morning.
"Why, Bowen, what are you doing here
so late?" he exclaimed.
"Oh, have habit of stealing an hour
from sleep every night to give to my ac-
counts. 1t is great gain on the weeks
work"
In less than a year the merchant was
ordered by his physician to give up bust
ness altogether, if he would preserve his
life. The continuous strain of years, and
the time stolen from sleep, had broken him
down; he was an old man at 4S. He had
become wealthy, but, as the event proved,
had greatly shortened his life by his devo-
ton to money-making.
A man, well-known in this country and
Europe as profound scholar and linguist,
made a resolution, in the first year of his
married life, to give one hour each day alb
solutely to his children. During that time
his whole thoughts and attention were de-
voted in understanding their characters,
and influencing them in the right direc-
ton. Business, invitations, visitors, what
ever would have interfered with that hour,
were all put aside 81 have an engage
ment," was the memorable answer
His daughters grew to maidenhood.
Their mother was dead, and they had no
friend so near as their father. All their
little school troubles, their plans and
pleasures, they brought eagerly to him,
and were always sure of his sympathy.
His boys became young men; they, too,
had their ambitions, their downfalls, their
successes-most of all, their temptations.
They were never afraid to go to him with
any of them, as to an elder brother.
A friend met him walking down street
one day with one of his boys. Father and
son were joking and laughing together.
Chow do you become so intimate with
your sons p inquired a friend afterward,

''Pah l am too busy grubbing all day
to earn something to leave them. / have
no time for such idlenessl"
The two men separated. One bequeathed
to his undisciplined children wealth,
which they speedily squandered; the other
gave to his, not so much money, to be sure
but firm, controlling characters, every point
of which had been influenced by his ex-
perience, his Christian faith and love.
Diane de Poitiers, famous beauty Of
the French court in the sixteenth century,
is said to have spent an hour every day in
a hot milk bath to preserve her COM
plexion, which was of dazzling fairness.

The answer which each reader wishes
involuntarily to make to this question will
afford him key to his own character and
the present condition of his mind and soul

ADVENTURES OF A WATCH.
Lady's Timepiece Which is Continu
ally Being Lost and Found.
From the Providence Journal

From the Providence Journal
Some years ago a handsome watch for
women's wear travelled from Switzerland to
Providence jewelers., where in show
window it attracted attention as proper
gift to bestow upon friend. 1t was pur-
chased, put in its pretty case with the
chatelalne attached, and the whole lost
before the purchaser arrived home. Three
days later it was advertised as found, and
was again in the possession of its pur-
chaser. 1t was bestowed upon the friend.
Before many days, after the lady had re-
turned from drive, the watch was found
to have been dropped from the chatelaine.
No research could find it. Three weeks
later it was carried into a jewelers. for sale,
recognized by the owner and recovered.
Sitting on the rocks at Narragansett Pier
one summer day, and wondering if it were
yet late afternoon, the owner of the watch
glanced down to see the time, and the
watch was missing. 1t had been securely
fastened, but the chatelaine had broken
and let go the timekeeper Going back
to the hotel the lady was spoken to
by an elderly man. Have you lost any
thing, miss ~ was asked. Yes, watch"
"Here it is" And uninjured the tramp
piece of iewelry was returned to the
owner The chatelaine being repaired
stoutly, the watch was worn in Phila-
delphia. Of course it was lost there,
and equally of course it was found by the
chambermaid in the hotel and mailed to
the owner in Rhode Island by the proprie-
tor of the house Expostulation from
friends, profered advice, which is said to
possess an unpleasant odor, and Gliding
failed to make the owner stop wearing the
watch.

the girl knew better, and she innocently

Politeness in Jewish children.

l do think, without any exception, that
they are the best people in the world for
looking after their own, and if the men of
other races were one-half as careful there
would not be women and children with no
one to provide for them, or poor relations
who did not know where to turn. Then,
too, as in contrast to Gentle children at
the watering places. the Jewish ones are a
thousand times more polite. obey what is
said TO them by their parents, and show a
consideration for each other, even in their
play, that is very desirable. l heard one
say to her little sister: do you think it's
polite to be cross because you lost at cro-
quet and make all the rest of us feel un-
happy when we have only been playing a
fair game ?" The vanquished one bright
ened up at this and apologized to all the
other little girls, and new game was
started.

impudent word, or refuse to obey Its
mother, and for the young girls it must be
said that no dance is too joyous no froliC

FRUIT AS FOOD AND MEDICINE
1t Is Better Than All the Nauseating
Drugs Sold.
Halls Journal of Health.

| lHals journal OF Health.
OF all the fruits we are blessed with the
peach is the most delicious and digestible
| There is nothing more palatable, whole
some and medical than good, ripe peaches
They should be ripe, but not overripe and
half rotten; and of this kind they nav
make part of either meal, or be eaten be-
! tween meals; but it is better to make them
part of the regular meals 1t is mis-
taken idea that no fruit should be eaten at
breakfast. 1t would be far better if our
people would eat less bacon and grease at
breakfast and more fruit. In the morning
there is an acrid state of the secretions, and
! nothing is so well calculated to correct this
as cooling, sub-acid fruits such as peaches,
apples, etc. Still, most of us have been
taught that eating fruit before breakfast is
highly dangerous. How the idea origi-
mated | do not know, but it is certainly a
great error, contrary to both reason and
facts. The apple is one of the best of
fruits. Baked or stewed apples will gener-
ally agree with the most delicate stomach,
and are an excellent medicine in any case
of sickness. Green or half-ripe apples
stewed and sweetened are pleasant to the
taste, cooling nourishing and laxative, far
superior, in many cases, to the abominable
doses of salts and oil usually given in fever
and other diseases. Raw apples and dried
apples stewed are better for consultation
than liver pills.
Oranges are very acceptable to most
stomachs, having all the advantages of the
acid alluded to; but the orange Juice alone
should be taken, rejecting the pulp. The
same may be said of lemons, pomegranates
and all that class. Lemonade is the best
drink in fevers, and when thickened with
sugar is better than strip of quills and
other nauseants in many cases of cough.
Tomatoes act on the liver and bowels, and
are much more pleasant and safe than blue
mass and liver regulators The Juice
should be used alone, rejecting the skins.
The small-seeded fruits, such as blackber-
ries, figs, raspberries, currants and straw
berries, may be classed among the best
foods and medicines. The sugar in them
is nutritious, the acid is cooling and puri-
flying, and the seeds are laxative. We
would be much the gamers if we would
look more to our orchards and gardens for
our medicines, and less to our drug stores.
To cure fever or act on the kidneys DO
febrifuge or diuretic is superior to water
melon, which may with very few excep-
tions be taken in sickness and health in
almost unlimited quantities, not only with
out injury but with positive benefit. But
in using them the water or juice should be
taken, excluding the pulp, and the melon
should be ripe and fresh, but not overripe
and stale

and in fact it was already promising soon
to double the number of Mr.. Weldon's
customers.
1t was bright December afternoon.
During the lull between dinner and tea
John Fordham had taken up new kalie-
doscope which Mrs. Dixon had bought the
boys the week before
"Life wants turning and turning as the
boys say, just like this" he remarked.

that, or perhaps they haven't the heart.

she stood behind the counter, busily dry

murmured, softly, "who has given me

that we need not any longer look back at
a sorrowful holiday, but forward, to all

Yet still feel the pulseful glow
That filed my merry, youthful days,
So long ago, so long ago.
Ny brow is furrowed deep with care,
My steps are heavy now, and slow,
My eyes are dim, but still live,
And all youths feryoIs newly know.
The tender babes nursed and loved
Have grown to stalwart, noble men;
They pet the little mother now
As ] my darlings petted then;
And Memory paints further day
| live my youth within cream
When love first woke at call of love,
Two lives were bleut in one lifestream.
But memory is not all, for now

That filed the years I'd half forgot,
Since long ago, since long ago.
! live again within life,
The dearest now, on earth, to me;
The little son of my dear SON
A part of him and all OF me.
In springing step and glancing eye,
In sudden laughter, sudden tears,
In glimpses OF a child pure soul,

Will sing my song with higher art,
And where l am, in earth or heaven,
I'll bind his laurels on my heart.

ExPECToRTING DIAMONDS.
The Clever Tricks of a wouId-be Jewel
Swindler.

Sw1nOIer.
Hatton Garden 1.-THE great diamond dis
trict of London), had quite an unpleasant
experience last year, said an importer. All
the dealers lost great number of stones,
and they couldn't understand how the
leakage occurred until about Christmas.
After sorting and sizing up they would put
the stones in the usual parcels with the
weight marked When they sold the par
GELS they would find that the weight had
decreased, and that one or two of the
stones had vanished. Many small dealers,
who never let the stuff go out of their
sight, and who had no assistants, suffered
as wells as the others, and for months it
remained mystery of the deepest kind.
Everybody was afraid of everybody else;
some quit coming to the Diamond Ex-
change, but whether they came or not
their losses went on Just the same. At
last, almost by accident, the mystery
was solved, and the solution was simple
enough.
There was small dealer who lived in
Clerkenwell. He wore glasses and pro-
fessed to be very shortsighted. This gen.
tleman bought sparingly last year, but he
did tremendous amount of going around

Hatton Garden firm became suspicious of
this small dealer and had talk with his
employers. The next time the eyeglasses
came in, before the safe was opened and
anything handed out, two men were posted
where they could watch every movement
of the visitor. He opened paper of
stones (about 4 carets apiece, with ninety
six stones in the parcel. He put them
quite close to his eyes and then lowered
them little, as if he wanted to damp
them.
"Damping,o it may be stated, is breath
ing upon the stones Most dealers do this
when examining parcel, as any flaws or
faults can be better observed as the mois-
ture evaporates.
After damping them he looked again.
handed them back, made an offer (which
he knew would not be acceptedD and was
going away. The two men watching had
not seen him do anything suspicious, but
still he was kept in conversation while the
parcel he had just handled was taken into
the private Office and weighed. 1t was
found about two and one-half carats short.

to get behind him and strike suddenly at
the back of his head while he was talking.
This was done, and Mr.. e-glasses spit
out the two ll-carat stones. He was

Professor Goodwin Smith Thinks Canada
Is Becoming Anxious for 1t.
LONDON, May 11.-Professor Goldwin
Smith has been enlightening the English
with opinions of the prospects of com
mercial union between the United States and
Canada. The professor has no doubt that
Canada is rapidly advancing toward that
consummation, provided the Barkis of the
Union is willing. Free trade with the whole
North American continent and free access to
their own natural market are practical in
ducements to Johnny Canuck to seek for at
least a commercial union with his southern
neighbors.
Political union between the two countries
Professor Smith thinks less likely to be
speedily brought about. There are many
local interests in Canada which would be
unsettled or destroyed by such union, and
politicians in the United States are known
to be opposed to the annexation of Can ada
on political grounds. A Republican senator
told the professor that he was oppoS ed to
annexation because, in his opinion, Canada
would vote Democratic"
The Roman Catholic hierarchy in Canada
is also averse to a political union with the
United States, not desiring to come into any
closer relations with the hberalizing infiu-
ences Of the Protestant people of the states.
Professor Smith is entirely sure about all
these things; but then Professor Smith is
always sure about everything, and nobody
else is entirely sure about Professor Smit b.

hands and smiling pleasantly. A moment
later Latimer was ordered to stand up by
the court for sentence. The sentencing re-
marks by Judge Peck were interrupted once
in awhile by his emotion. They lasted
twenty minutes and wound up as follows:
''That you be confined in the state prison at
hard labor in solitary confinement, for the
term of your natural life"
The prisoner never changed from the look
he had when he entered the room, and
smiled in the old fashioned way. He was
taken to Jail, and will probably be taken to
prison for life some time to-day.
