A Dangerous "FOunting."

The more prominent citizens of small
western town had come together one
evening for the purpose of getting the
sentiment of the community regarding
the purchase of fountain for the park
In the center of the village.
Several men had expressed themselves
as heartily in favor of the measure, when
a penurious elderly resident, famous for
always opposing the majority, rose and
said in his squeaking, irritable voice:
"Well, gentlemen, amt in favor of
this founting business; no, sir, l amt.
You've went and got park laid out that
the town didn't need, and now you want
to spend more money on useless old
founting. Well, now, s'posing you git
your founting, and some day when
there's a big crowd around looking at
that founting it blows up and kills four
or five people, and they come on the
town for damidges, then where will you
be with your founting? Then you'll wish
you'd never had any founting!"- Youths

A Bird Caught by . Clam.

Harvey Cook, of Saratoga Lake, tells
the following story:
81 have lived on these waters, so to
speak, for fifty-four years, but l never
before saw anything like what I saw a
few days ago. I was moving along
the shore of the lake when l saw a
sand snipe, or tip up as the boys call
them, standing at the waters edge,
and struggling as if its feet were in a
trap.
''Soon the bird arose little way in
the air and flew as far as the road,
where it fell and Auttered as though
calling on me. as on an old friend, for
help.
"When l reached the spot I saw that
one of the birds feet was clasped by a
large fresh water clam, but before
could render aid the bird again with a
great effort arose into the air and made
few wild circles, unfortunately over
the lake, but the clam held on, and in
a minute more both were in the water.
"After brief, auttering resistance
the poor sand snipe succumbed to the
weight of the clinging clam and was
drowned. "-Harrisburg Telegraph.

RELIGIOUS AND EDUCATIONAL

There are in France about thirty
thousand elementary schools where

The issues of Bibles by the Ameri.

years amount to So, T36, O75 copies. And
yet the larger part of the world is still

Brain culture, like physical culture,
is governed by regular laws, and it is
only by complying with these laws that
the result can be obtained. Plenty OF
good food for nutrition, and vigorous
exercise to strengthen and discipline

laws in both forms of culture.-N. Y.

The University of Moscow recently
celebrated it's one hundred and thirty
fifth anniversary. Its teaching force
consists of 88 regular professors and 81
private instructors; the number of stu
dents is 3,SO5. The Minister of Instruc-
ton has, in recent years, made several
efforts to lessen the attendance at this
and other Russian universities. In
Russia, as we'll as in Germany, the pro-
LESSONS are overcrowded.
Rev. DR.. VIM. Taylor, of the Broad

Man, as mere animal, is the infe-
rior of many earthly creatures in
strength, agility, beauty and warlike
equipment. When we regard him as a
mere brute, though we place him in the
front rank of such creatures, we can not
but feel contempt for him. 1t is only
when he is viewed as moral being, en-
dowed with features of soul that ally
him to God and ennoble him above the
animals, that he commands our venera-
tion and love. The more perfect this
moral excellence becomes, the higher

Reform In Mems Dress, Too.

Even men wear too many clothes,
with an awful waste of material that
does not embellish or add to comfort.
Some day the "biled shirt" with its
starched front, will disappear. It can
not go too soon. Why should man
wear a stiff board under his waist

mental for evening wear, when it Ger
tainly looks clean. But with the won

white silk not take its placeG Or, in
deed, why should all colors be left to
the female sex9 Between the gaudy
and the tasteful there is great differ
ence. Oscar Wilde only carried his
ideas little too far. He had sense at
the bottom of them. We will come to

Tho Kind Of Butter That IL Wanted.

If you study the market and learn
what kind of butter is wanted now, you
will find there has been change. There
is not much demand for butter that will
keep, but for butter that is high favored
and also milk favored-a butter that has
no taste of buttermilk. They demand a
butter that has very nearly the same
taste as cream. The whole tendency is
toward getting butter more nearly like
cream, getting butter that is very nearly
the same as fresh cream. We have al
most reached the point where public
taste demands butter made from sweet
cream. = Professor Cooke before Yer
mont Dairymen's Association.

not suffering even a COW, saying:
"Where there is COW there must be a
woman. and where there is a woman
there must be mischief" In the cathe-
dral at Durham, dedicated to him, a
black cross in the pavement marked the
spot beyond which no woman was al
lowed to pass. In 1888 Edward III and
his queen went to the priory at Durham
and lodged together.
In the middle of the night a monk
broke into their room and rudely awak-
ened the royal pair, saying to the queen
that st. Cuthbert loved not the sex and
that she must up and go. The queen
tumbled out of bed and spent the rest of
the night in the church, praying for par
don to the patron saint, whom she had
offended. In 1417 two servant girls
dressed themselves as men and ssimpi-
ously approached the saints shrine, "

CONCERNING HOBBIES.
Good Results from the Oscar Wilde FuroF.
and Even from the Dude.

Good Results from the Oscar Wilde Furor.
and Even from the Dude.
The natural tendency to run after
fads is a constant source OF radicule.
and if it were not for the constant in
Auence of such ridicule society would
be kept in state of absurd extremes
by the freaks of fashion. As it is,
these fads often subserve useful ends
and on the whole do good. They &C
centuate ideas, and by their very exae,-
geration are educational in effect
A few years ago Oscar Wilde came
among us with his Little Lord Faunt-
leroy hair and knee breeches. His
dress was grotesque, his manner
open to criticism in many ways, and
intellectually he was little better than
a pretender. The Juror over him was
one of the most absurd fads that ever
swept the public from moorings of
common sense. But even that fad had
its uses. The fellow provided himself
with a small quantity of Ruskin's
ideas of art, more especially in their
application to household adornment.
A great many people with more money
than culture listened to his sugges-
tons, or, more likely still, received
them through what might be called
atmospheric pressure. The result was
wholesome. Some American crudities
were eliminated. A little more atten-
ton is now paid to harmony in color
and the other rudimentary principles
of decorative art. This country is no
doubt better for that visitation, even
though it did serve to expose our peo-
pie to ridicule.
There is no end of fun made of tho
dude. He is a preposterous specimen
Of humanity, but he is less harmful
than the old fashioned prodigal son.
Better that his fathers surplus money
should be squandered on clothes than
on whisky, and the general influence
is far less harmful. The average young
American is not in much danger of
being too genteel. On the contrary,
he can stand a good deal more of it
and still not have his manliness i'm
paired. q.
The dude is not only an improve.
ment on the prodigal son, but from
him goes out a general influence that
makes for refinement of manners. He
is an exaggeration, and when toned
down to reason is gentleman. The
influence that goes out from dissipa-
ton in high life is altogether bad and
pernicious.
In the constant shifting of the sands
Of fashion the gregariousness of hui
man nature seeks for itself new chan
nels from time to time, and it is no lit
tie comfort to know that the foibles of
fashion have their bright side, their
redeeming qualities. Much as could
be said with fairness against the folly
of fads. they are not without their
defensible qualities. Chicago Inter
