THE "HoRRlD GRIND"

The funny man sat at his desk one day
And sharpened his pencil long,
men started 70 write with all his might
The words OF q roilicking song;
For the managing editor, stern and grim,
In planning the work that day
Had said in O solemn tone 10 him,
To "driye dull care away
From the readers minds so he'd begun
To grind column Of bosterous fun.
He punned on his worn and threadbare coat,
Then glanced at his shabby hat,
And quickly with nervous hand, he wrote
A laughable joke on that;
He thought OF his suffering babe at homo,
And his eyes began to CLEAN
With humOr bright as his hand would write
Some fun that would make men scream;
Then he thought OF his SAD wife's anxious tears,
And wrote some Jokes that would live for years.
He wrote his joke. and verse, and pun,
Pure coin from humor's mint
Nor paused till the task was fairly done
And he had finished his stint;
Then quietly crept out into the night,
And home TO his sad-cyed wife,
And with her he watched for death to smite
His child, and end the strife;
For while his pencil had laughter bred
His brain was lied with terrible dread.
And so 1t happened that the very next day.
While readers far and wide
Laughed long and loud in boisterous way,
He sat at a cofiu's side.
The world moved on; but little 1t rocked
His sorrow cruel and keen;
To furnish folks fun was all they expect
From the brains OF hired machine;
So seiz ng once more his pencil then
He stified his sorrow to grind again

THE GAR NICHOLAS.
A vivid Pea Picture Drawn by Ernest,

it among my most instructive expert
ences and recollections to have OBJ
tanned living picture of the most re-
markable man of my time, which was
able to supplement and complete from
time to time by means of numerous
connections with relatives common to
us both.
In the person of the Emperor Nicho-
las all vague distractions of state,
church and nationality vanished,
One looked at him and perceived that
all the force expressed in these terms
was concentrated in his person.
Apart from him nothing existed or
seemed capable OF existing. He stood
tangible. but by no means terrihlei on
the contrary. handsome and lerdly,
attractive and seductive, self-assured,
bold, and like kind of religious
guardian spirit before an adoring
world.
And yet this colossal apparition of
an absolute ruler proved on closer ex-
animation to be mere outward show, n
painted picture. He was the most
perfect wearer of uniform among all
the Princes of Europe, a tailor's block
(ModelD for every kind of full dress.
The principles of his life and Govern
ment were uniform and red tape. He
looked both the statesman and the Cen
eral in so marked degree that his
complete capacity to fill either role
seemed to every one a foregone conclu-
sion. That and every thing else he
affected by means of the grand spirit
born within him, which was expressed
in the phrase ..Nimbus of the Auto
GRAFT"
He was better capable of maintain
ing this in the most brilliant style
than any of the Emperors and Kings
of his time. But with equal ability he
managed to give the social expression
of his feelings a certain air of bon
hommie which corresponded to his
change of uniform. Above all. he
understood the art of putting one out
of countenance while his gallant and
chivalrous demeanor fascinated both
men and women. His influence was
everywhere and nowhere, like that OF
the Wandering Jew.-London Times.

A CURIOUS BOOK.
A Volume Which Is Worth More Than
Its Weight in Gold.

A Volume Which Is Worth More Than
Its Weight in Gold.
A very curious and interesting as
well as extremely rare book, in Bos-
ton Public Library, is that inscribed
"Joannes Latinus, Garnat@ 1878.
1t is so rare that the British Museum
has not a copy. Some years ago an
old gentleman from Philadelphia
asked Mr.. Knapp, the curator Of
periodicals and pamphlets in Bates
Hall, if this book was in the library,
and he was much surprised to learn
that it was. He spent a long time
reading it, and about three years later
he returned and asked Mr.. Knapp if
he remembered him. When answered
in the affirmative the old gentleman
again expressed a desire to see the
book, and he took it and read it very
carefully. Nothing else in the library
seemed to interest him in the least.
Some two years ago there appeared in
one of the public prints an article en-
titled, Latin John, the Negro
Scholar, Critic and Poet" in which,
among many other interesting facts,
it was stated that "the name of this
singular historical parsonage was
Juan Latino. His name was first
made familiar to a world of readers
by Cervantes in the Sonnet of
Urganda, to the Book of Don Quixote
de la Mancha, which, when translated,
runs thus:
Since Heavens will hath kept thee back
From turning out a classic Don,
Like Juan Latino he, the black,
Leave thou Latinity alone.
unlike Urganda, however, Latin
John was real man and a negro, not
a tinted Moor as Diego Ximenes de
Encisco would make us believe in his
drama, but genuine blackamoor, an

by all the great photographers in the
highest terms. His Latin poems were
printed in Grenada in 1873, and not
long afterward he appears to have
died and was buried in the famous
church of Santa Ana of that city. The
inscription on his monument calls hin
"Fillus Athiopum, prolcsque niger
rima patrum.'
"His book has been long out Of
print, and is one of the rarest in the
world. Latin John was not only 6
famous professor of Greek and Latir
in the Cathedral School of Grenada
but an accomplished swordsman, &
lover, a wit and a musician. He fel

HOME, FARM AND GARDEN.

The best gardeners say that the
porous common pots are not so good
for house plants as those glazed or

evaporation is constant from the por-

FORGING SYSTEMS.
Why Warm Water Is Not Wanted for
Livestock In Winter.

Why Warm Water Is Not Wanted for
Livestock In Winter.
A notion sometimes gets a start and
becomes epidemic before the fact is
discovered that it has little or nothing
to recommend it. One craze after an
other has its rise and fall Farmers
and dairymen are, perhaps, as free
from such comet-like notions as
any class of people, and yet we must
occasionally take our turn with the
rest. 1t is claimed from eX-
periments made by reliable dairymen
that COWS will give more milk when
furnished with warm drinking water.
Admitting that they may yield more,
for a season, is it conclusive evidence
in favor of the method? 1t is claimed
by certain men that they can do fourth
more work in day if allowed
to take a few glasses of alcoholic
liquor daily. Doubtless the state
ment may hold true, for season, with
the class of men referred to. A horse
man can get over longer stretch of
road in one day if he carries a whip
than he could without it. Are we sure
that there is no similarity or truthful
ness in these comparisonse. May not

stock, dairy animals or not, is to keep
the health of the animal constantly in

done all he can in other directions for
the comfort and health of his animals,
the question hinges on whether there
is nothing weakening or enervating in
the long-continued use of warm water
or whether the animals need for such
