Spelling Children.

The mothers task of conquering the child should begin at an early age, or in the end the child will be the victor. A Astriking illus tration of this was noticed on one of the busy streets of certain city, recently: Two ladies whc had evidently been shopping were push ing in front of them carriage in which sat bright eyed, laughing child of perhaps two years It soon discovered, however, that the carriage was headed towards home and it at once began to fuss to go back Its mother not complying, it's face, a moment before all sunshine, assumed a look of passion and its cries could be heard far down the street. After one or two trifing attempts to still its cries, the mother laughingly remarked to her companion that perhaps they had better go where baby wanted to, which was done, and smiles once more covered the little ones face. They were soon lost from sight in the mov. ing throng, but already the little child had learned her power and will continue to use it. One lady was heard to remark, "If that mother can't manage her child at two, how can she expect to have any influence over her at sixteen nP'-Lewiston Journal.

TreasurerHenry andC dComptrollerWright, the state board of equalization, have com pleted their work under the law in fixing the value of Connecticut railroad shares for taxation. The railroads have been assess ed for $778, 456. 55 for 1889, as against $672, ,220 for 1888. The increase of reve- nue from this source, therefore will be $1O6, ,245 55. and this without working any upon horse railroads is increased from Sl2, ,52O to $l5,s37. These results, added to what will come ill to the state from the bond and note tax and inheritance tax, will undoubtedly sustain Treasurer Henry in emitting the state tax upon the towns, which will be large relief to them.

A conpiIs.ssd Find.


 The following account of the discovery of a hidden treasure is somewhat curious from the strange manner in which the veritable owner recovered his property, In a field near London, some laborers, digging up the roots of a tree, found two jars containing nearly four hundred sovereigns They divid- ed the money among themselves, and were then taken aback by the lord of the manor claiming it. Before this claim could be in- vestigated tradesman came forward and stated that one night, under temporary delusion, he had gone out and buried the money; but when he awoke, and for some time afterward. he tried in vain to recollect the locality he had selected. It was not until he heard Q rumor of the finding of 400 sover- eigns that he obtained a clew and the entire transaction was recalled to his memory. He was able to bring forward sufficient evidence in support of his singular story, and, to his great relief, the money was eventually re- stored to him.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

 The following is an extract taken from a letter received from MT. T A. Siezemore, of Piedmont, s. O., and written under date of November 6, 188S
 ''I am now twenty-eight years old, and from the time was seven years of age until 1885 suffered with severe case of scrofula During that time took every known remedy, but to no purpose. My father took me to North Carolina, where was put put under the treatment of an eminent physician. The medicine given me had only temporary ef- feet, for shortly after my return the scrofula broke out in more malignant form, and I was worse off than ever before.

Rev. Dr. Chamberlain, of Brooklyn, told Imaginable story in the course of his address before the Evangelical alliance on Monday. He said that a little Brooklyn girl returne d home from Sunday school in a state of mind becau she had heard that Jesus was a Jew She appealed to her mother for confirmation of the report
 Yes, my dear, Jesus was Jew," said her mother.
 '..Well, mamma, he was the son of God, was he not ?''
 ..Yes, my dear.'
 "Well," said the little one, '.I don't see how it ever happened that Jesus was a Jew, when God himself is Presby yterian. " Boston Advertiser.

A Disgusted Thief.

Among curious recoveries are many in- stances which are of interest on account of the odd circumstances rather than of the money value of the articles lost and found. A few years ago parcel of manuscript of Poele's great "Index to Periodicals" contain ing the material for about twenty pages, was stolen from the express on its way to the printers The state of mind of the editors can well be imagined, for these twenty pages represented the three years' labor of some fifty co-operators, and could not be replaced without going through, from beginning to end, over 4, 4,000 volumes; The indexes of some periodicals might. !as far as they were con- cerned, furnish an. imperfect substitute, but while the editors were considering how they could best make use of them, the manuscript was found under street counter, where it had been thrown by the disappointed thief, and vexatious delay in the publication of a most invaluable work was fortunately pre- vented-St. Louis Globe-D Democrat.
