A very desirable and sensible fashion
was started some time ago in regard to
the christening gifts from godparents.
When child is christened it is the
proper thing for one of the godparents
to give teaspoon, and to announce the
intention of repeating the gift on each
anniversary until the dozen is complete
Then to begin to give some other kind
of spoon. By carrying out this idea, by
the time girl is launched in society,
engaged, and married, she will have
quite a store of silver, endeared by as

An Elevated Railroad Episode.

~
She was a Normal college girl, and she
decided to take the Sixth avenue elevated
railroad up town. Being in haste, she
carried her coin in her mouth, that she
might lose no time at the ticket window.
When she reached the ticket window she
swallowed the coin and several people
missed several trains while she coughed
it up again. When her ticket was de-
posted she discovered herself to be on
the down townside. She was in hurry,
and she gritted her teeth and ran down
stairs. Then she got ratified, crossed
Twenty third street instead of crossing
the avenue and, mounting, found herself
where she had been before.
She stuck her tongue out at the gate
man and started again. AS she crossed
Sixth avenue the gateman on the down
town side called to the gateman on the
up town side that a crazy girl was COM
ing. She came. She was good deal
out of breath, and she stuffed $5 bill
through the window. AS a train drew
up she swept together her change, mostly
silver, flung it into the ticket box, and,
firmly grasping her ticket, dashed for a
place. The gateman dragged her back,
butshe did not believe him. Then, while
the station telegraphed to the central Of
fee for instructions, she sat and made
faces at the gateman over the way. And
thegateman on the down town side called
to the gateman on the up town side:
"Are you going to the ball this even

A San Francisco modeler of statuary
has set Of shirt and cuff studs made Of
Chinese finger nails set in gold. Hepoints
with pride at his exclusive possessions,
which are made of Chinaman's finger
nail which was four inches long when cut.
The nail in the studs presents shiny ap-
pearance and is susceptible to changes in
the weather. Their owner claims that
they were successfully used by him as
weather barometer when he first got
them, but their usefulness in this direc-
ton had been lost through age.-San

A New Reading System for the Blind.


A new method of teaching the blind to
write has been invented by French
lady residing in Anglers. For some
years Mile. Mulot has been doing all in
her power to alleviate the sufferings of
those who have been deprived of eyesight.
Mile. Mulot has been three years in
bringing her new method to perfection.
The system is a very simple one. Asmall
album of by inches, having twobrass
gratings at the corners, contains all the
arrangements necessary, and the writing
is done by hard pencil upon soft paper.
The letters taught are Roman in character
and very angular or square in outline.
Of course each letter is separate, which
makes it very easy to read.-New York

Cured of q superstition.

Speaking of superstitions among sick
people hospital physician said: "Upon
one occasion one of the convalescents
was sitting near the window when he
observed small dog barking furiously
while running along the ground direct
ly underneath. Suddenly the animal
stopped, and looking upward began to
sniff the air and then commenced dig
ging in the earth at a furious rate and
keeping up an incessant whining. The
patient called an attendant and told her
that he wished to be put back to bed, as
the time was fast approaching for his
demise. The nurse demonstrated and
tried to laugh the man out of the absurd
notion, but it was without avail, and
the patient had his wish granted and for
several days grew rapidly worse.
'I inquired into the cause, and upon
being told tried to make the man see
how foolish it was to relinquish all hold
he had upon life. But the idea had such
firm hold upon him that was finally
obliged to resort to extreme measures,
and threatened to send him into the
streets to die if he was not better in
three days. AS l anticipated, the dread
of dying upon public highway coun-
teracted the effect of the presentiment,
and within the allotted time the patient
improved wonderfully, and was after
ward discharged cured man-cured,
as he afterward told me, of both his all
ment and his superstitions. Chicago

manner: 81 am very glad to see you;
both our houses date from the same
epoch. Ny ancestors were more clever
than yours; had it been the reverse, you
would say to me today, Take a chair,
come here near me, let us speak of our
affairs; whereas today it is who say to
you, sit down and let us talk"

bishop of Rheims. the pleasure of re-
peating to him the compliments paid by
the king to our family. 7 repeated them
the same evening to the emperor of
Russia, who was at Compiegne, and who
with much kindness asked me if I was

own words. l have not been weak
