Earnest Words.

In an interesting article on 1.-THE
Industrial School for Girls" Mrs. w.
H. FELTON, of Barlow county, Ga, makes
an eloquent plea for the industrial edu-
cation of women. With infinite pathos,
Mrs. FELTON, writes; "My heart aches

Sherman's Wonderful Memory.

The prodigious memory of certain
great men has often been remarked.
1t is a surprising fact that military
men, whose minds one would think
would be filed with great and startling
circumstances, to the exclusion of all
small matters, often remember tritling
occurrences. General Sherman three
years ago was visiting Philadelphia.
Standing one day at window he saw
a big policeman with very long beard
90 by on the street. The general
uttered an exclamation of surprise, but
said nothing more. Next day he saw
the same long-bearded policeman go
by, and this time sent messenger out
and asked the man to come in. The
policeman presently entered the room,
and made military salute to the gen.
eral.
eyes" said General Sherman, cts
the very mani Do you remember me,
Mr.. Oficer?"
Certainly I do, general" said the
policeman,
"And do you remember where we
first metz"
"Yes, sir. 1t was in California.
You were only a lieutenant then, and
was your drummer"
"That's it," said General Sherman,
"and instead of that beard you had
barely hair or two, maybe, on your
chin. And if am not mistaken your
name is Hutchinson"
$50 it is, general" said the police
man.
They entered into conversation on
the old times in California and Mexico.
The general had not seen the old drum
mer since the Mexican War, and had
never seen him with beard, but
recognized him at the first glance on
the street after forty years had passed
by.-Philadelphia Press.

vipers.

In England the only venomous snake
is the viper, which frequents chalky
districts, and is not to be found all over
the country. Perhaps these vipers are
the most common and vicious Of the
smaller snakes, seldom growing longer
than two feet. They abound not only
in warm countries, where forests are
thick and men are few, but also in the
coolest regions of Sweden, Norway,
Russia and even Siberia, where a great
many exist owing to stupid supers IT,
ton among the peasants that if a viper
is killed a terrible misfortune will soon
befall the rash slayer. The California
viper builds itself little mud hut, Just
its own length, and probably half an
inch thicker than its own body. 1t is
made of earth, fine gravel, and some
times leaves are mixed in the construc-
ton of this curious abode. 1t is lined
with soft, silky substance, finer than
cotton and silkier than down. AT each
end there are two little doors, and
when monsieur Ia mditre is halfway in
one shuts, and when all the way in the
other closes, leaving the master Of the
house as isolated aud exclusive as
Robinson Crusoe on his desert island.

from California lately, was so thor.

A Coming Question.

The boundary line between the United
States and the British possessions in
North America once more threatens to
become the subject of international dis
pute, conference and arbitration. a
half century ago, Fifty-four Forty or
Fight" was campaign cry, and the
coming controversy begins at that line,
from which President Polk retreated,
the once northern boundary of Oregon
territory being the southern boundary
of our territory of Alaska. The dis
cussion of the ownership of Revillagi-
gedo, Pearse and Wales Islands, and of
the line of the Portland Canal, will ri
val the contest over san Juan Island
and San Rosario or De Haro Straits,
decided in favor of the United States
by the Emperor of Germany, as arbitra-
tor, in 1872. Each year that the bound
airy line between Alaska and British
Columbia remains in question, increases
the difficulty of determining it. Each
year settlements are increasing in num-
bers, more private interests are in
volved, and the region in dispute be-
comes more valuable to each claimant.
There is great Indifference to the ques-
ton on our side of the line, but in the
Dominion it is we'll understood, and
parliament and public opinion have
taken their stand Canadian maps now
differ from the United States maps of
that northwestern region, and this
boundary question promises to provoke
more international bitterness than the
present Behring Sea dispute concern.

The Laplanders' Bible.

The Lapps have the Bible in their
own tongue, and few stories are more
interesting than the account of its
translation. Over thirty years ago a
series of religious riots took place in a
number of villages in Lapland, and
among the rioters was one Lars
Haetta. During the riots several homi-
cides occurred, and some other of his
companions were committed to prison
on a charge of murder. They were
found guilty and several were hanged;
but, in consideration of youth, Haetta
was condemned to lifelong imprison-
ment. COMMUNICATING his condition,
his keepers and the prison chaplain ex-
tended to him such favors as could
safely be granted to lifelong pris-
oner, and, finding them rewarded by
good conduct, took especial pains to
teach him to read and write. Lars be-
came interested in the Bible, grew

One by one they went out, leaving
Nellie and her John, her lover and hus-

forgot the years which lay between
him and that brightest day of all his
life, when he had promised to love,
honor and cherish the woman now at

People wondered that Judge Warren
should become a teetotaler; but not

Disbursements of Inventors.

Paul and Wyatt taught the world
how to spin hundred or more threads
at one operation; but years elapsed
after these early inventions before thew
came into general use. Paul worked
his own machines for many years: but
when he died they were broken up and
sold, and the world continued to spin
on the foot-wheel. The tardy realiza-
ton of the value of these inventions
was due primarily to the opposition of
the hand-operatives to the introduction
Of anything in the nature of improved
machinery. The guilds were strong,
and determined in their refusal to oper-
ate or tolerate new devices for dis
pensing with hand-labor. Poor John
Kay, after inventing his fy-shutte,
was compelled to close his mill at Leeds
by the riotous hostility of the hand
weavers. Learning that he was also
engaged in devising machinery for
spinning, mob broke into his house,
destroyed everything it contained, and
would have killed the inventor him
self had not friends struggled him away
in wool-sheet. We need not be sur
prised at the blind brutality of these
ignorant workingmen. They looked
upon the inventor as an enemy plan
ming to take the bread from their
mouths. But what shall we say of the
manufacturers who stole the patents
of Kay, without recognition of the SER
vice his genius had done them? And
what shall we say of the government
which permitted this man, in his old
age, without recompense for inventions
which added untold millions to the
wealth of his country, to seek refuge
from persecution in France, there to
die in abject penury?-S. N. D. North,

day by day more fond of reading it, and
finally formed the bold project of
transating it into his native tongue.
Through many weary years the labor
went on, for Lars was no great scholar,
and the Lapp language, as may be
readily supposed, is not a fluent lit
ersry medium of thought. But finally
the work was done, the Bible trans
lated and printed in the language of
Lapland, and the remainder of
Haetta's sentence was committed. He
was living as late as 1870, and, though
an old man, was still active, and often
served parties of travellers as guide

Total Abstinence is Near. "

BY MRS. j. NJ. DURANT, MONTPELIER, VT
Hark hear a blue-bird singing,
And his clear notes seem to tell,
Like bell they seem to tell,
OF a brighter day that's dawning-
How the clouds break for the morning
Total abstinence is near
Then list the robin calling
From its nest in leafy hall
" That is truth, be joyous ALL"
His sweet message cometh near us,
While the reddenng sunbeams cheer US
Total abstinence is near,
Soon the nightingale twitters
In his voice of clamorous tune,
Sailing meath the shining moon;
News for thee, both near and far,
Under moon and under star,
Total abstinence is here"
Thus the South and North resoundeth,
Blended notes both brave and true,
From the gray and from the blue,
Forward in one brotherhood,
BY our loyal purpose wood
Total abstinence must be.
All along the lines there cometh
From our dauntless Union band,
Side by side and hand in hand,
Wearers of the ribbon white,
News Of victory and delight
Total abstinence has come,
To the front it bids us hasten,
This dire foe unfnching meet
Never, never beat retreat
Till, with banner in our hand
In every home and every land,
Total abstinence shall stand.
on our Union falls blessing
From the crusade long ago,
Braver battle none can know,
Fling our white flag to the breeze,
Pennon fairer no eye sees.
In the labor let each share,
All its tolls and crosses bear,
And the glory ever wear,
Total abstinence is ours

" Somebody PaYs.N

A druggist in one of our large cities
said lately, " If l am prompt and care
full in my business, owe it to lesson
which learned when l was an Grand
boy in the house of which l am now
master. l was sent one day to deliver
vial of N edicine Just at noon, but be-
ing hungry stopped to eat my luncheon.
The patient, for lack of the medicine,

murderer. The agony of that long sus-
pense made man of me. | learned
then that for every one of our acts
of carelessness or misdoing, however
petty, some one pays in suffering. The
law is the more terrible to me because
it is not always the misdoer himself
who suffers. This law is usually ig-
nored by young people. The act of
carelessness or sefishness is so trifling,
what harm can it do? No harm appar-
emily, to the actor, who goes happily on
his way; but somebody pays. Ayoung
girl, to make conversation, thought
lessly repeats bit of gossip which she
forgets the next moment; but long af-
terward the woman whom she maligned
finds her good name tainted by the
poisonous whisper. A lad accustomed
to take wine persuades chance COM
rade to drink with him, partly out of
a good-humored wish to be hospitable,
partly, it may be, out of contempt for
'fanatical reformers." He goes on his
way, and never knows that his chance
guest, having inherited the disease of
alcoholism, continues to drink, and be-
comes a hopeless victim. Our grand
fathers expressed this truth in way of
their own:
! For the lack of a nail the shoe was lost,
! For the lack of the shoe the rider was lost;
! For the lack of the rider the message was lost;
For the lack of the message the battle was lost.
But, though we do not see it, we do
well to remember that it is there; and
to remind ourselves at the beginning of
every day that each careless act, each
unkind word in it, will be paid for-not
by us, perhaps, but in the want or pain
of some one Youths Companion.

There was but one gun in the crowd, and
lt was an old fiint-lock rifle carried by
Squire Jones, but the rest of them had
sticks and clubs and were armed in the holy
cause of right.
They paused in the little level spot before
the cabin, and the night wind stirred the
Rev. Calvin's grizzled locks, while the owls
in the woods hooted dismally.
The time was ripe, and with a rush, the
Rev. Calvin in the lead, they struck the door
and knocked it in with terrific smash.
The devilites were taken by surprise, just
as the spirit was rapping off Ceely Gates
age, to her utter CONSERVATION, while she
blushed in the dark; but they scrambled to
their feet, overturning the table, dispensing
the spirits and splitting jug full OF spirits
OF a more substantial sort.

Millsaps. at the top of his voice. "Dee-sert

Then without waiting for useless waste
of time in parieying with the heather, he
waded in with that earnestness and zeal
that always characterized his actions. The
others followed suit, and there ensued a
scene in that little log cabin that would
have so frightened any spirits that hap
pened TO still be lingering in the vicinity
that it would have been a matter of i'm
possibility to have ever induced them to
return, even under the most favorable cir
cumstances.
The 'devilites" fought like devils indeed.
and the women did excellent work with
their teeth and finger nails, all the while
yelling and screaming. The Rev. Calvin's
stentorian voice could be heard above the
din calling on the devilites TO surrender be.
fore it was everlastin' too late, and the
shouts Of the devilites as they tore their way
through the struggling mass of humanity
was frightful.
Millsap's chief end was to find Link
Dover, aud In the darkness it was almost
impossible to distinguish one from another.
but Link assisted the old man considerably.
and before the Rev. Calvin was quite pre-
pared for it he found himself piled up In
corner with MIR. Dover on top.
The Rev. Calvin begged; be hurled every
appropriate and misappropriate SCRAP Of
scripture that happened to come into his
mind at his assailant, but to no avail. and
they tied him with piece OF rope, and laid
him down under a bench to cool off. The
religiouists had been defeated, and, as che
moon rose over Chilhowees rocky nights.
they could be seen scrambling down the
mountain side in a very demoralized condi-
ton.
The Rev. Calvin was retained by the
devilites as hostage until peace could be
effected and then they turned him loose. lie
