Boys have little chance to learn any
business by which they can earn theiI
daily bread. One trouble is that the
girls, who ought to be at home doing
housework, have taken the places of the
boys. 1 might mention dozens Of trades
where no great muscular effort is requir-
ed that are taken up by girls and which
should be held by men alone. How can
the boys secure apprenticeship when the
places are already filed by girls? While
the girls are at work the boys are idle for
want of it; some of them sit around the
house, while others are loafng, stealing
rides on trains or devoting themselves to
other forms of mischief. A friend of
mine has no work, but his two sisters are
down town in store. ! know of hus-
band that is idle, while his daughter and
sister-in-law are cmployed.-Cor, Detroit

The Century Climb.

No other club in New York is at all
like the Century. 1t is not swell or
fashionable; it is not famous for its cuis-
inc, its furniture or its entertainments;
but it is delightful by reason of the artis-
tic and literary atmosphere that prevades
the place. Half the excellent pictures
on the walls were painted by members
Of the club, half the books in the library
We're written by members. The rooms
are all large, and most of them a little
dark. Open wood fires make the place
cosy. The dining room has one great
table, where all who come dine and chat.
The man next you may be literary
parsonage, professor from Yale, or an
artist with white hair and reputation.
Richard Henry Stoddard comes in and
speaks in voice that no other man dare
use in the club house. AT the luncheon
there is brazier at command, and the
members may, if they will, and as they
often do, concoct what dish they choose.
There is no show, no fuss, no array of
servants. Scores Of members are almost
in rebellion at the prospect of leaving
the old house. Some have threatened in
angry moments to organize a new club
and s"-v, but nothing of the sort will
happen, and the quiet dignity of the Cen
fury will be transferred to the splendors
Of an uptown club house.-New York

streets and Sidewalks in BerIip.

The smoothness of the pavements in
Berlin affords immense relief in dimin-
ishing the confusing noise and jar of the
streets. Waking early in the morning
at a hotel in the center Of the business
section, one perceives no rafting Of
wagons, only the chatter of the horses
hoofs, so that it seems as if cavalry regi-
ments were continually passing. The
smooth streets have also made cycling
very popular, and tricycles are extern
sively used for business purposes. The
broad sidewalks are laid with tagging
in the center, and between that and the
curbstone are paved with small, mosaic
like stones that form a smooth surface,
and are easily removed and replaced.
Beneath this space are laid the gas pipes,
telegraph and electric light wires, pneu-
matte tubes, ETC., so that in laying or re-
pairing these the street pavement is not
disturbed. The wires of the arc lights,
as we'll as of the incandescent, all are
carried underground, and in Berlin
there are not to be seen the unsightly
poles that so dishgure the streets IN
Mexican cities.-Cor. Mexican Financier.

The Home Of the rerenhono.

We remember well number of lead
ing Brantford gentlemen being guests Of
Professor Bell at his residence on Tutello
Heights TO experiment with very crude
telephone which Graham Bell, then teach
ing visible speech tan invention, by the
way. of Melville Bells in Boston,, had
been working at. 1t answered the pur-
pose. of course. but was not nearly as
handy or effective as the present insrru-
menr. It was here, too, that the first
telephone line was strung from Professor
Bells 10 the city, some two miles, so that
Brantford may very justly be designated
the birthplace Of the telephone, if not
the birthplace of the inventor, who came
from Scotland as a young man with his
father. 1t was TIE development Of the
telephone system and the prospect Of the
munlfceut returns which followed which
induced Professor Melville Bell, himself
man of wealth and endowed with high
mental and inventive gifts. 10 leave here,

What He Did.

One would say that Shakespeare, at
least, must be the one exceptional prophet
to be honored in his own country, but,
widely spread as we know his fame to
be, at least one Englishman had no very
clear idea of its cause.
Some years ago, while passing through
Stratford- on-Avon, Mr.. Toole, the En-
glish comedian, saw rustic sitting on a
fence.
''That is Shakespeare's house, isn't it?'
he asked, pointing to the building.

IN MARBLE CANYON.
Quick Sailing Down Stream by an Adven-
furious Exploring Party.

0ulck sailing Down stream Dy an AQVen-
turOus Exploring Party.
To give you an idea of the number of
the rapids from the head of the Colorado
river 20 this point, near the mouth of the
Little Colorado river, distance of about
290 miles, l will say that there are just
200 rapids, not counting small draws or
rifles, and from Lees Ferry to this point,
a distance of eighty miles, there are 100
rapids. We have run the greater part of
this 100 and portrayed but few, and over
many Of them our boats have danced and
jumped at the rate of fifteen miles per
hour, and over some, by actual measure
ment, at the rate of twenty miles per
hour for half mile at time. Standing
IN the bow Of one of the boats as she goes
through one of these shutes, with first
the bow and then the stern jumping into
the air as she shoots from wave to wave,
with the spray Of the breakers dashing
over ones head, is something the excite
ment of which can only be understood by
being experienced.
That part of Marble canyon from Point
Retreat for forty miles down to the mouth
OF the Little Colorado river is far the
most beautiful and most interesting can
yon We have yet passed through. At
Point Retreat the marble walls stand up
perpendicularly 800 feet from the waters
edge, while the sandstone above benches
in slopes and cliffs to $500 feet high.
Just beyond this the canyon is narrow
est, being but a little over 800 feet wide
from wall to wall, while the river in
places at this stage of water is not over
sixty feet wide. The marble rapidly rises
till it stands in perpendicular cliffs, zoo
to 800 feet high, cOlored with all the tints
OF the rainbow, but mostly red. In many
places toward the top it is honeycombed
with caves, caverns, arches and grottoes,
with here and there natural bridge left
from one crag to another, making a most
grotesque and wonderful picture as our
little boats glide along that quiet portion
of the river SO many hundred feet below.
At the foot of these cliffs in many places
are fountains of pure sparkling water,
gushing out from the rock-in one place,
Vassey's Paradise, several hundred feet
up the wall-and dropping down among
shrubDery, ferns and flowers, some of
which were found in bloom. Below this,
for some distance, are number of these
fountains with large patches of maiden
hair ferns clinging to the wall, fifteen to
twenty feet above the water, green and
fresh, and with the sparkling water run
ming down over them they make most
charming picture. t..-
Our weather has been most wonderful.
The thermometer has never registered at
6 o'clock in the morning lower than "a
deg. above zero, and in the sun in the
middle of the day has registered as high
as rs deg. The sun has shown brightly
nearly all the time, though for eight days
at one time it never shone on us, we
being under the shade of the cliffs all the
time.-COr. Denver Republican.

Black Eyed Genius.
Gyp is visiting Omaha.
Haven't seen her? Don't know Gyp?
Nonsense! She may be noticed any day
walking up and down Farnam street.
She wears a red satin coat buttoned
very lightly around her throat and q
toque to match it sets jauntily on her
head. The toque is trimmed with feath-
ers and flowers and faxen bang peeps
from beneath its rim. Gyp has very
pretty brown eyes and they gaze through
glasses that are perched upon her little
nose. Gyp's department is very proper
except in one respect. She looks straight
ahead through her glasses and walks
with dignity, and when people make re-
marks about her-as they generally do
she does not pay any attention to them.
She just holds her cigarette firmly in her
teeth and assumes an Indifferent air.
For Gyp smokes when she appears upon
the street-that is the only breach in her
otherwise faultless demeanor.
But then Gyp is only dog-a little

SHE'S ONE OF THE 400.

Gyp is naturally naughty. She is very
proud Of her satin habit and with true
feminine patience bears all the di5com-
forts of fine attire without a single whine
of impotence Oftentimes the wind
blows her coat about her feet and her
faxen bangs slip over her eyes. Besides
her glasses pinch her nose and she be-
comes very tired Of the cigarette. Yet
all artistes who appear in public and
calmly accept the homage of the multi
tude suffer more or less, and why should
a dog be exempt from any of the draw
backs that beset an actors career?
Gyp does not notice other dogs and alb
solutely refuses to make their acquaint-
RnCe. As a rule. her snowy costume
amazes them and they stand and look at
her afar off, now and then expressing
their canine establishment in low, deep
growls. ky, Omaha's Bohemian dog

join Cyp in her daily promenade; but,
although ky had copied many of the

tain lawyers in the Shelly and Paxton
blocks, Ky was ANONYMOUSLY snubbed.
Moreover, Gyp can talk.
When she was asked about Omaha she
expressed the utmost confidence III its
future by removing her toque and bark
ing half a dozen times in the most en-
thusiastic manner. She had no definite

The Texas Spring Palace is an original
conception for presenting to the public
the products and resources of the state.
1t is not a fair, in any sense of the term,
but Karporams'-- picture OF the
fruits of the soil, the orchard, the gar
den, the farm, the forest, the mlnes'
the streams-eaoh wrought into form
and shape with great ingenuity and ar
tistio skill. The visitor who attends the
Palace to see crazy quilts, lace handker-
chiefs, embroidery, threshing machines,
clothes wringers, ETC., ETC., Will hnd
these articles conspicuous only by their
absence. The grains of the eegntrf ne
will find represented by bsanttftH pic
ture of the goddess Of the forest, con-
structed of cereals, aud clad in Tatment
made of the. same material, the whole
presenting q Vsftable picture, beautiful,
attfaHfiHs and pleasing, Every product
( 81 tbs soil is treated IN the same manner,
and when finished the whole Palace pre-
sents more the appearance of scene
from Fairyland, than a gathering of the
products of the earth.
In addition to this the threshed grains
and other products are presented by
samples in show cases, on shelves and in
glass jars, neatly arranged for exhibit
| ton.
The birds of the state are there, treated
! bv the Taxidermist' 9 art, and the fishes
| swimming in their native element, IN
glass aquariums. There are also the
song birds by the hundreds, whose voices
nil the building with sweet notes, attest
| ing their appreciation of the beautiful
scene that surrounds them. 1t we're

If Christian people get hurt Of body,
mind or soul, let them remember that
surgery is apt to hurt, but it cures, and
you can afford present pain for future
glory. Beside that, there are powerful
an@sthetlcs in the divine promises that
soothe and alleviate. No ether or ehlor-
oferm or cocaine ever made one so snpe-
rior. to distress as few drops OF that
