GEMS OF THOUGHT.

Domestic happiness, thou only bliss
Of paradise that has survived the fall
Cowper
Avoid shame, but do not seek glory. Moth
ing SO expensive as glory.-Sydney Smith.
God makes the glow worm as well as the
star; the light in both is divine.-George Nc
Donald.
The tale bearer and the tale nearer should
both be hung up back to back one by the
tongue and the other by the ear.-South.
AL of us who are worth anything spend
our manhood in unlearning the follies or ex-
plating the mistakes Of our youth.-Shelley.
The woman who really wishes to refuse
contents herself with saying so. She who ex-
plains wants to be convinced-Alfred de
Musset.
No one can ask honestly or hopefully to be
delivered from temptation unless he has HIM
self honestly and firmly determined to do the
best he can to keep out of it.-Ruskin.
Look not mournfully into the past it comes
not back again. Wisely improve the present;
it is thine. Go forth to meet the shadowy
future without fear and with a manly heart.
-Longfellow.
Be not slow in common and usual acts Of
devotion and quick at singularities; but, hav-
ing first done what thou art bound to, pro-
coed to the extraordinaries of religion as you
see cause.-Jeremy Taylor.
There is way out of every difficulty that
meets us in life IL may not be the way we
like, or the way that promises great glory,
honor, pleasure or reward, but it is the way
of deliverance, and we are bound TO consider
it Gods wey.-Joseph Owen.
There is peculiar and appropriate reward
for every act, only remember that the re-
ward is not given for the merit Of the act,
but follows on it inevitably in the spiritual
kingdom, as wheat springs from the grain
and barley from its grain in the natural
world.-F. W. Robertson.
Whenever we yield ourselves to the true
law, higher principle of order enters into
our life; we rise out of childish weakness, out
of animalism and evil; we are renewed and
transformed into children of light; we be-
come conscious OF 8 steady, upward tenden-
cy, and of godlike and immortal quality

Within the memory of men still living,
1t was not difficult task for lawyer in
active practice to familiarize himself
with all the leading American decisions.
How is it now? Unless his memory is
abnormally developed he cannot retain
the names of the reports, even, much less
their contents. In this multitude of au-
thorities, both luminous and fuliginous,
no proposition, however absurd, is re-
quired to stand with apparent support.
The lawyer Of the present, instead of
basing his judgment upon broad, general
principles of right, is apt to spend his
time and waste his faculties in delving
and searching among the yellow covered
literature of public law library (no one
but millionaire can afford one of his
own) for some case similar to the one in
hand. He shrinks into q mere decision
index or an echo" He becomes a pa
tient toiler searching for the threads of
precedent to twist rope with which to
strangle principle. A writer who took
the pains to gather the statistics asserts
that from December, 1886, to August,
18S7-a period of eight months--the su-
preme court and the courts of last resort
Of the various states rendered 8,325 de-
cisions, in most of which opinions were
written.-Forum.

OYSTERS i'm Antiquity.

Raw oysters were eaten at Athens and
Rome as q preprandial whet. The Ro-
mans coated their oysters with honey,
and kept them until they were slightly
putrid. The simple and clumsy methods
of Apicius, the third celebrated glutton
Of the name, for preserving oysters, was
to wash them in vinegar and pack them
in vessels coated with pitch. The oysters
thus prepared and sent from Britain to
the Emperor Trajan, when in Parthia,
were considered "fresh, and have been
sufficient to entitle this mans name to be
handed down through twenty centuries.
If he is to be deemed famous in direct
proportion to the nastiness Of his inven-
ton, he should be famous indeed. Bril-
lat Savarin's preprandial whet consisted
of three or four dozen oysters. Sieur
Laperte, whom he used to entertain tete-
a-tete at dinner, is said to have COM
planned because he could not get his fill
of oysters. Savarin determined to give
him satisfaction in this respect, and let
him go to his thirty-second dozen, when
Laperte turned his attention to the din
ner with powers unembarrassed by his
prelude.-American Analyst.

The Wastes Of Poetry.

Why is it that every one wants to write
poetry? This instinct leads to some droll
incidents in newspaper offices. The waste
basket heaped with effusions from young
persons is a matter of course, but the
malady does not in all cases end with
youth. Middle aged business men-suc-
cessful men, too-have not infrequently
the weakness. 1t is an odd spectacle
when a dignified old gentleman comes
in, and, with some hesitation, but with
unlimited confidence of what he has
written, offers "a few lines" for consid-
Grafton. 1t is almost pitiful to see his
interest in the thing and to note his i'll
disguised sorrow when informed that
what he has presented cannot be used.
He does not realize, nor can the majority
of people, that rhyme is not necessarily
poetry and that jingle is not all
that is necessary to make verses
worthy of publication. 1t must be the
mere sense of rhythm, unaccompanied
by the sense of what is new or strong,
the mere tickle of the jingle on the ear,
which makes SO many people think
themselves poets Even in Chicago, ma
terialistic, money making, "get there"
Chicago, the value of the white paper
spoiled annually by so called poems
which are never printed would equal
the proverbial princes ransom-pro-
vided, of course, the ransom were not
unreasonably high. Chicago Tribune.

u,pnotized by tho phonocraph,

DR.. Pinel, of Paris, is said to have sue
ceeded in hypnotizing several subjects
by means of the monograph. All the
commands given through this channel
were, he declares, as readily obeyed as
those which he uttered directly, and
suggestions Of every possible sort were
as effectually communicated through the
medium of the machine as if made viva
voce. The conclusion which he dedu-
ces from his experiments is that the re-
ceived theory of magnetic current pass
ing from the operator to the subject is
entirely baseless, and that the real cause
of the phenomena of hypnotism is ner-
vous arrangement on the part of those
subject to them. York Telegram.

The Malice Of Criminals.

II all the threats made Of contemplated
vengeance of convicted criminals were
carried out, the mortality among officers
of the law would be astounding. No
thief ever felt the halter draw with good
opinion of the law, so runs the ancient
chestnut, and it is equally true that never
yet was there a criminal who had philoso-
ply enough to give the officer who sends
him up credit for doing his duty. They
imagine themselves the victim of pri-
vate grievance, and when they are on
their way to the penitentiary they hon
estly believe that they intend to get even
with the officer at the expiration of their
terms. A year or two in the prison has a
wonderfully calming effect, and when
the prisoner is released he is not inclined
to seek readmission to its walls. No little
scheme of revenge will tempt him to TAX
ing the chances of another term. do

perience where a returned convict has

Stranger Than Fiction.

Some information has Just been OBJ
tanned Of a remarkable case in Birming-
ham, q series of circumstances having
been brought to light from which it Is
expected that laboring man in the
town is likely to come into possession of
fortune of something between e20, 900
and CO, 900. Some years ago the bor-
ough was noted for its hat making.
Among the hatters was one William
Thursfield, and a young man in his en-
ploy became attached to one of his
daughters. They married and went to
aYorkshire town, where they established
themselves successfully in business. No
children resulted from the marriage, and
the couple amassed large fortune. Mr.
Thursfield died at q ripe old age, and
soon after Lotus, his son-in-law, died.
He divided the life interest in his exten-
sive property to his widow, at whose
death it was to go to the next of kin on
the Thursfield side. About three years
ago Mrs. LOTUS died. Afterward efforts
were made to obtain information as to
the next of kin, but the usual advertise
ments did not yield the desired informa-
tion. A Yorkshire gentleman has been
at Newcastle and has obtained valuable
information. The man for whom search
was made proves to be Alfred Thursfield,
who is bricklayer's laborer over 60
years old and who has grown up fam
lily. Thursfield is believed to be the heir,
and if that is proved he will pass from
poverty, in his little house in Salter's
lane, to riches and ease.-Boston Herald.

Dules of Fish.

Doles of fish are very numerous, and
with particulars Of few examples we
close Our paper. John Thake, in his will,
drawn up in 1887, left his house and land
on condition that his heirs, annually on
Friday, in the first week in Lent, gave to
the poor of Clavering, in Essex, one bar
rel of white herrings and cade of red
herrings. At Dronfeld, Derbyshire, in
1877, Richard Stevenson left half hun
dred of herrings, and as much bread as
could be made from "strike" of good
wheat The doles were to be distributed
every Friday during Lent forever. At
Farnham Royal, Buckinghamshire, in
1854, David Slater gave money to pur-
chase bread and herrings and pair of
kid gloves annually for the parson of the
parish for the time being. The gloves
were to be purchased ready for the first
Sunday in Lent. At Newmarket in
Suffolk there was bequest of fish and
fagots. Chamber Journal

How Scarlet Fever Is Distributed.

The Medical Era relates the case of q
girl aged about s, living at Fortress Mon
roe, Va, who was some months ago at
tackled by scarlet fever, the disease run
ming typical course. For long time
no possible source of contagion could be
discovered. The child had not been alb
sent from home, had been with no one
lately exposed, and no other case was
known to exist anywhere in the vicinity.
Subsequently DR.. Brooke learned that
one of the house servants had nursed a
case of scarlet fever in distant city just
about year before. After the case ter
minated she packed some of her things,
including some clothing then worn, in a
trunk, and left the place. A year later
she had the trunk sent to her, opened it
and took out the contents, the little girl
being present and handling the things.
Very soon after the latter was attacked,
