A Difference in BOYS.

There is vast difference between the
ways and ideas of amusement of the
small boy uptown and the small boy
downtown who makes his living by sell
ing papers, shining muddy boots OF be-
ing messenger. For instance, the down
town newsboy scorns to throw snowballs
as usual thing. He will shake dice,
match coppers or smoke cigarettes and
discuss some melodrama playing in his
favorite Bowery theatre, but he abso-
Iutely declines to throw snowballs. On
the other hand, his more innocent broth
er seven or eight miles higher up on the
island still clings to the good old fash
ioned sport of ''pasting" everything and
everybody with a SNOWFALL. That's all
association, of course.-New York Trib-

Eggs of Crabs and Lobsters.

Crabs and Holsters are Matched from
eggs, resembling upon birth nothing so
much as the animalcul@ shown by the
microscope in drop of ditch water.
They are as unlike the shellfish they are
to become in mature life as grub is un-
like butterfly. In the case of the crab
the egg clusters are attached beneath
the animal after extrusion, while with
the lobster they become fastened to the
tail, which, by its tanning motion, in
creases the stream of oxygenated air
through and among the ova.-Waahing-

How Mark Twain Seems.

The opinions of our serving folks are
sometimes worth knowing. At the Muir
ray Hill hotel the other day one of the
porters remarked; "There goes the sol
emnest and dismalest gent as ever
stopped at this 'ouse. I don't b'lieve he
ever knowed what it was to larf."
The subject of this depressing and
melancholy criticism was Samuel l..
Clemens, Esq, of Hartford, Conn, not
unknown to admirers Of serious and in.
structive literature as Mark Twain

AHolv PLACE IS THE AEARrHsroNe

A holy place is the hcarthstone,
Where loved ones are gathered round,
Where mothers, sircs and sisters dear
And brothers and friends are found.
A holy place is the hearthstone,
Homes innerraost shrine is there,
Laden with blessed benison
And hallowed by loving prayer.
A holy place is the hcarthstone;
What clustering Joys abide
Where the cradle of our infancy
Was rocked by mothers side.
A holy place is the hearthstone.
Whore childhood S pattering feet
Go glancing in shade and sunshine
To the music of pleasures beat.
A holy place is the hearthstone.
Where the youth have wooed and won,
And wed and gone to the battle
OF life wish full armor on.
A holy place Is the hearthstone,
Where manhood has settled down
With blessings blossoming round him,
And love for a priceless crown.
A holy place is the hearthstone,
Whence the old and young have gone
To rest from their weary labor
When the battle of lifc was done.
And oh, from the holy hearthstone,
When parted from those we love,
May we go to meet by the hearthstone
OF our Fathers house above!

Discovery of Mahogany,

In the year 1897 one of Sir Walter Ra.
leigh's ships in an expedition against the
Azores, put in at Trinidad for repairs.
The workmen used the first wood that
came to hand, and it happened to be the
now famous mahogany. By this accident
it was first introduced into England,
where it was much admired, but it did
not become an article of commerce until
a century later. Since then it has held
first rank as cabinet makers wood
