Bill Nye's Whitfield Desk.

Certain school boys in Butler who have
whitfield their desks and been compelled
by the School Board to pay damages for
the work of their jacket-knives may find
comfort AMI pointer or two in Bill Nye's
experience In his lecture at Pittsburg
lately he gave this "reminiscences of his
schoolboy days:
One rule of the village school WAS that if
any article of the schoolhouse furniture
was mutilated fine of 81 would be inn
posed on the offender Ono day while
thinking Of the tariff, he said, he whitfield
the desk He was given his choice be
tween paying fine or taking whipping.
lie said he didn't have the cash with him.
but when he went home that night he told
his father about it, end put the case to him
very strongly, and asked him for the loan
Of the necessary money.
His father, he said, was not inclined to
become broker, and said that he could
stand good deal Of corporal punishment
taken in the proposed way. The father
was finally persuaded after eNacting a
promise that it would he the last olfcuse,
To furnish the g..
ON the way to school the next morning
Nyc said he thought over the matter care
fully and prayerfully and concluded that
81 was too large q sum Of money to fritter
away on a school district that had never
done anything special for him, and so when
he got there he took the whipping-and re
tanned the -. 1t was, he said, the first
money he ever honestly earned and with
il he went to the circus with n portion
and bought arnica with the remainder.

Know Something.

Dr. Holmes says a well educated MAN
is one who know every ,ning about some
thing. ANA something about everything
The wise doctor does wcll to put this IN
the order he docs; ior the man "io begin.
at one thing and learns al about il, hclao'
he tries 10 master everything else, is the
man of power and consequence in this
world. while tn, one who dahblcs "a little
in everything gets left far behind ia the
race. vi grdette puts The idea very
nearly in tie following paragraph
Mr.. Vanderbilt pays his cook 10000
a year, my boy, which is a great deal
more than you and l earn, or at least it is
n great deal more than We get, because he
il cook That is all Presumably be
cause he can cook better than any other
man in America, That is all. If Mons.
Sauceaneravi could cook tolerably well
and shoot little. and speak three Ian
guageS tolerably well. and keep books
fairly, and sing some. end could preach
fair sort Of sermon. and knew something
about horses, and could telegraph little.
and do light porter's work, and could read
proof tolerably, could do plain house and
sign painting, and could help on a threSh
ing machine, and knew enough law TO
practice in the Justices courts of Kicka
poo township, and had ouee run for the
Legislature, and knew how to weigh hay,
he wouldn't get 900 year for it. He
gets that Just because he knows how To
cook, and it wouldn't make a cents differ
cnce in his salary if he thought the world
was fat, and it went around its orbit on
whcels.-There is nothing like knowing
your business clear thro ugh, my boy,
whether You know anything else or not.

Goodness Wears VIGIL"

Five or six young ladies, near relatives,
hegan their matrimonial life about The
same time Happening to meet, one day,
after having been married about ten years,
they compared notes, and talked about
their husbands. \ lawyers wife spoke
band had won Mt tho bar. Another lady
profeSSed herself satisfied with the luxur
inuS home which her husband, a large
manufacturer. had provided for his family.
A third whose husband stood well OH
change and in society, said she wouldn't
exchange places with any of them. She
had everything she wished for, and the
best people visited her" The conversa-
the party exclaimed-"Why, Molly, you
haven't said one word about your husband.
DO tell us something. We all know you
were not much in love with him when you
ed promptly the lady, who had listened in
silence. You all know that William is
neither brilliant nor rich, but | know that
lie is good; and the longer | live the more
l value simple goodness, especially in the
man you i've with We are not even we'll
to.do William has not added penny to
his fortune; but though we have had a
hard struggle, we have enough, and our
home is the snniest in the county. Oar
ing our whole married life, my husband
has not spoken one harsh word to, nor has
he caused me moments anxiety, and he
has been as good as he could be all the
time" Her hearers lapscd into silence,
and kept their eyes on their fancy work.
The husbands of several of them We're not
nor were their habits such aS
their wives cared TO speak about, even to
confidential friends. molly has capped US
ALL" exclaimed one at last, throwing down
her work. ''rake it day in and day out,
goodness is better than smartness to live
with We'd all of us rather wear a real
even if it is little off colour,
than a paste one. William may be little !
ppaquc, but he is good and wears we'll"

"lIow can you do that:" asked an in
crcdulous bystandcr.
Simply By the initials of their names
In the first place you must remember that
about half Of the male population Of this
country have been named after President ;
President and ali you have to do is 10
knoY when these Presidential candidates
were at the zenith of their popularity. OF
course excep tions must be made of George
Washington and Andrew Jackson, for peo-
pie have not quit naming their boys after
these illustrious men to this day"
''For instance, here is the name oi ". IL.
Johnson-William Henry Harrison was
elected President in 1886, consequently
Mr.. johnson is about lifty-three years old.
Here is W. Scott Smith-Winield Scott
ran for President in 1852. Smith is there
fore about thirty seven years old. The
next name on the list is \. l. North
\ braham Lincoln was elected President
in 1850. Mr.. North is therefore about
twenty eight years of age. Now take the
next-M. F. SmatherS, Miliard Fillmore
was a candidate for President in 1856. VI.
I. Smathers is therefore. in all probability
about thirty-three years old. And SO on.
by studying the Christian names of men
you can figure out the ages of many of
them very closely"

What Produces Death.

Some one says that few men die of age.
Almost all persons die of disappointment,
personal, mental. or bodily toll or accident.
The passions kill men sometimes even
suddenly. The common expression,
"choked with passion" has little cxaggcr-
alton in it, for even thought not suddenly
lata !. strong passions shorten life. Strong
bodied men often die yOung-weak men
live longer than the strong, for the strong
Use their strength, and the weak have none
to use The latter take care of themselves,
the former do not As it is with the body,
so il is with mind aud temper. The
strong are apt To break, or, like the candle,
run: the weak burn ont. The inferior ami
IN ais. which live temperate lives, have
gene rally their prescribed term of years.
The horse lives - years, the OK IL or 20,
the lion about 20, the hog 10 or u, the
rabbit S, the guinea pig G or I. The num-
animal takes to grow its full size. But
man, of al animals, is one that seldom
comes up to the average. He ought To
live hundred years, according the
physiological law, for five times twenty
are one hundred; but instead of that, he
scarcely reaches an average Of -four times
the growing period. ihe reason is
obvious-man is not only the most irregu-
lar and most intemperate, but the most
laborious and hard working of all animals.
He is always the most irritable of all
animals and there is reason To believe,
though We cannot tell what IN animal
secretly feels, that, more than any other
animal, man cheriShes wrath to keep it
warm, and consumes himself with the fire
of his own reflections

He Reads Upside Down.

y Punxsutawney youth possesses the
peculiar faculty of reading newspapers up
side down quite rs readily as otherwise.
Indeed, he prefers to read that way, and
almost invariably invcrts the paper and
reads upward instead of dcwnwards. The
peculiarity was after this fashion bequeath-
ed him: When a small boy he loved not
the atmosphere of TIE school room, and
fain would stay az home. But he had a
desire unto knowledge, and from the news
papers with which the walls Of his bed
room were papered he learned to spell and
read. Many of these papers were pasted
on upside down, and by reading from the
bottom upward he became familiar with
inverted print. Now he reads as readily as
any one, and it may be said that all his
education was CLEANED from the newspapers
on the walls
