what A Lady Does Not Do

There are several things always alb
sent in true lady, which girls will do
well to notice aud remember.
A lady, for example. will never ignore
little kindnesses.
Conclude in q crowd that she has .
right to push her way through.
Consume the time Of people who can
Ill spare 1t.
Wear on the street dress only fitted
to the house or carriage.
Talk loudly in public places.
Wear q torn glove, when a needle
and thread and few stitches would
make 1t all right. +
Fail In answering letters or returning
visits, unless she Is Ill or in trouble.
Fret about the heat or the cold. the
sun or the rain. the air. or the lack Of 1t.
Make an engagement and then not
be on time.
Complain of her family, or discuss
personal affairs with strangers.
Always believe the worst rather than
the best side Of story.
A lady does not do any other than
make the best OF everything - the
world, the weather and herself. She
believes in the golden rule and en-.
deavors as far as possible to live up to
it; aud that's what you and ought tc
promise every morning that we will
Try and do during the day.--Ladies'
Home journal.

Stanley's Eyes.

The marvellous influence which Stan.

bari followers, but also over all the ma
tives with whom be was brought into
contact during his transafrican expedi-
ton, Is attributed by his European
companions to the peculiar expression
Of his eyes, says the N. Y. Tribune.
Ono OF the latter describes them % fol.
lows: He first looks at the natives al
II he were going to eat them. and then.
when they give In and do whit he
wants, he looks as II he had done 80
and was grateful to them for the meal"
His eyes are stated to frequently dis
play that strange, PARKWAY light which
constituted the most striking clIarac-
teristic Of the late Gen. Gordon's per-
sonal appearance. Gordon, like STAN
ley. seemed to possess kind Of super
natural influence over the natives oil

delicate-looking little general with the

Stanley's present visit to Cairo re-
calls the fact that the first time he
passed through the Egyptian metro
polls was in 1868. when on his way to
Join the British expedition to Abys-
sinia. On that occasion England spent
q sum of &c. OOO. 900 to effect the rescue
of eight persons from tho cruel hands
OF King Theodore. Stanley now re-
turns after lapse Of twenty-five event

the proud consciousness of having res
cued 800 persons at a cost to England

Where does the River ST Lawrence
risei How many can answer this
question in geography Some will
probably say In Lake Ontario, others In
Lake Superior. Neither answer ID quits
correct.
Like the Amazon, this river has 8
different name for each part " its
course. The lower part vi the great
South American river IL called BY the
natives the Amaxonas, the middle part
Is tho Solimoes. and tho upper tho
Maranon.
So the ST. Lawrence between Lake
Erie and Lake Ontario, Is called the
Niagara; between Lake Erie and Lake
Huron. the St. Clair and Detroit river,
and between Lake Huron and Lake Su-
perior. tho St. Mary's river. Yet are
these all one and the same river, the
lakes being but 50 many expansions Of
Ito waters.
Beyond Lake Superior, TO tho north.
ward. there il still another portion oil
Its course called the Nepigon, d noble
stream Of clear, azure-tinted water,
nearly Is large as the Hudson ig
volume, which lows down Goi6 the
great Lake Nepigon In the heart Of the
Canadian wilderness.
Until recently Lake Nepigon has
been but little known. On our maps
1t Is figured as . much smaller lake
than 1t really Is. Its actual dimensions
are about sevcnty-three miles In length
by 6fty-ons in breadth. These figures
give but an inadequate idea Of It's size.
for there are FIVE great bays, varying
from twenty to ten miles In length. The
actual cDasf.line Of the lake Is not much
less than GOO miles.
Twelve rivers Of considerable size

'divide" toward James Bay. flow into

renee, not only from its size. exceeding
greatly all other rivers flowing into
Lake Superior. but from the clenrnesa
and color Of Its water, and Other
general characteristics.
Whereas the other smaller rivers Of
Lake Superior are ''black-water'
rivers, that Is to say, having tnrbdd OF

1t is related that at one time . gov

seemed fairly overwhelming. As a last
precaution he sent for his private sec

How the Bank OF England Avoided
Protest.

A.wealtny old New Yorker had an
exciting parley in the Bank Of England
when he presented number Of notes
for exchange into American money.
1--WE don't know you, sir" said the
teller. ".You must be identified" II
shall not be identified" said the New
Yorker. you must cash your notes,
or l shall make trouble" The cashier
came up and tried to smooth things
over: He spoke about the time-hon-
ored custom, etc. AT least" said the
cashier, 1--WE shall require you TO put
your name on the back Of the notes"
IL shall do no such thing" yociferated
the New Yorker. Il am solvent aud en-
tirely responsible: shall not endorse
your paper, and" taking out his watch.
unless you accept your notes In five
minutes time shall send them to pro-
test"
This heroic treatment created great
sensation In the sleepy old bank, but
the notes were cashed, and the New
Yorker went his way triumphantly.

seNepIcT AaNoLp's HOUSE.


The old benedict Arnold House h
still standing Ia tho Filth ward, on
Water street, near the corner Of Olive
street. II has fallen into decay. but
thore are some gray-baired citizens
who remember II when 1t was one Of
the show places Of the town. It's
orchard was the largest and finest In
New Haven. and fhs grounds were
laid out Ia handsome terraces.
Arnold built the house soon after hts
return from Ticonderoga. He must
have been Il man III somo wealth, for
the house was well built and the
grounds were ample. Arnold was not
popular man. Ho had violent and
irascible temper. and would rather
fight than eat as has been said Of him.
He always found fault and tho ferry
man who took passengers across the
mouth OF the Quinnipiac River before
the bridge was built dreaded to have
him for . passenger, for he always
swore at him for not rowing faster.
Nevertheless Arnold was q man Of
affairs. Besides his business as drug.
gist aud bookseller. he, with Adam
uAucUck, OWucu sHIoc VESSELS CuShkpa
In the West India trade. They were
the brigantine Fortune, forty tons, tbs
Charming Sally. thirty tons. and the
Three Brothers. twenty-eight tons.
Arnold never took particular pains to
SEQ that all Custom House dues were
paid; in fact, he was very Ink in this
particular. 1t Is related that once on
time sailor on board one OF his
| vessels reported some Of these laxities
TO the Collector of the port. The re-
port was made on Sunday and the Col.
hector refused to receive 1t, and told
the sailor b, come again on Monday.
In the mean time Arnold had heard
Of the sailors tale bearing. Before
Monday came Arnold adopted course
Of moral and physical suasion which
compelled the sailor TO leave town with
his tale untold.
Arnold's laxity In regard to the
| customs laws was probably not much
greater than that OF his neig hbors. In
deed, to eyade the customs was virtue
rather than fault, for 1t was regarded
rs a Unsuitable method Of protest
against taxation without representation.
Arnold's property was copGscated
after bis tTeachery at West Point was
discovered. Pierpont Edwards acted
on the Governments administration
and sold the property TO Capt. Isaac
Prout. Capt. Prout made only partial
payment, and was unable to meet the
subsequent payments as they became
due. In this way the property came
