FfliaI Afrection Among Hebrews.


There is nothing in the world of
pleasure and recreation to compare
with the beautiful devotion that is
paid the old Hebrew people by their
children and grand children at the
various summer resorts. A rude re-
mark is never made in their hearing,
nor a disrespectfnl world uttered to
aged mother or father. The gentle
yielding of easy chairs, the offering Of
choice things to eat and drink, the
last consideration of self where there
is drive or sail for limited num-
Der, and the graceful anticipation Of
creature comforts are attributes Of the
children to which the filial respect of
the Christian is not approachable.

Robert Bonner And His Famous
ROadSterS.


Robert Bonner, who set the fashion
for buying notably fast trotters at long
prices, has always refrained from TAX
ing part in contest between horses,
or even against time for o money con-
sideration. No other man has owned
as many famous performers as Mr..
Bonner, or paid as much for the plea
sure of driving speedy roadster. He
had several remarkably good horses
before he purchased Dexter, in 1867,
on the very day that the white-faced
gelding lowered the trotting record to
8. III at Buffalo, but the price, $685.
600, was unprecedented, and the
possession Of the king of the turf gave
Mr.. Bonner more extended repu-
tation as a horseman than he had be
fore possessed. Since then he has
been always liberal buyer, and, ex-
cepting Goldsmith, Maid and St. Ju-
lien, has secured every champion trot-
ter that has yet appeared. Dexter
at one time was an inmate of his
stable on West Fiftyffth Street.
Rarus, now twenty-four years old,
will not leave his stall again till he
is carried out, for his crippled front
feet, which troubled him even in his
best days, have now entirely failed
him. Maud S. too has trotted her
last mile against time. andd tthhe the peerless
chestnut mare retires, in her seven
teenth year, to Mr.. Bonner's farm at
Tarrytown, on the Hudson, where she
will be mated with his stallion Ansel,
record 2.20, by Electioneer, and here
after will be used for,breeding. While
she twice reduced her record. it is prob.
able that the daughter of Harold could
have set the mark still lower, as she
was only eleven years old when she
trotted her last public mile az Cleve-
land, July %, 1885. While Mr..
Bonner has given considerable atten-
ton to breeding, and has on bis farm
nearly hundred head Of fashionable
stock, be has not lost his old love for
driving, which he took up in the midst
of his business career as matter OF
health by the advice of his physician.
He may be truly called the pioneer
road rider, and, what is still more
important, made the owning ofa fast
trotter thoroughly respectable at a
time when the turf was notoriously bad
and everything connected with it was
looked upon with suspicion. While
he wisely refrained from having any
thing to do with public racing, Mr..
Bonner saw no reason why the short
comings of the men who controlled the
turf should be visited upon the horses
themselves, and being desirous of own,
ing the best roadster that money could
buy, he did not hesitate to 60 where
the highest speed was obtainable. even
in the face ofpublic opinion. Having
a business character above reproach,
Mr.. Bonner's championship of the fast
trotter as roadster gradually broke
down the barriers Of prejudice. and
many other wealthy New Yorkers
followed his example.

A Paste which will stick Anything.

A Paste Which will Stick Anything.
A paste which will stick anything is
said by Professor Winchell to be made
as follows: Take two ounces Of clear
gum arabic, one and a half ounces of
fine starch, and half an ounce of white
sugar. Dissolve the gum arabic in as
mnch water as the laundress would
use for the quantity of starch indicat-
ed. Mix the starch and sugar with
the mucilage. Then cook the mixture
in . vessel suspended in boiling water
until the starch becomes clear. The
cement should be as thick as tar, and
kept SO. 1t can be kept from spelling
by the addition Of camphor or little
oil OF cloves.

The Adyantages q, Conversation.

The Advantages OF conversation.
The most agreeable way Of getting
information is by conversation. If
Won can talk with a well informed
person, who can clearly express his
ideas on any subject in which You are
interested, you can ask questions, you
can have explanations, you can go
over the subject until you thoroughly
understand it, and searching out in
this way, in the mind Of another, a
thing which you earnestly desire to
know, you are more likely to remem-
ber it and to profit by it. This is
why a competent teacher is better
than any text book. Besides, talk
inspires both the speaker aud the
listener-the one becomes more eager
to know and the other more eager to
communicate.
