She Dotted ON STYLE.

There Is one member of the Metropolitan
club who is happy because he has at last
a good joke ON his wife. She is a hand
some and well informed woman, but she
has no pretensions to literature, being de-
voted to pretty gowns and the things per-
tanning thereto. Being one day in Bren-
tano's, she picked up little book entitled
Herbert Spencer on Style" and bought
it, delighted to be able to know what such
an eminent scientist had to say on her ia
vorite topic.
What was her disgust on reaching home
to find that, instead of giving the latest
fashions, it was full of dry literary dogmass
The worst of it was that her husband en-
tered and discerned the situation at a
glance And now If any discussion on les
convenances or the last fad is mooted he
always inquiries with a significant smile,
which causes the whole story to come out:
"Well, my dear, what does Herbert Spen-
Ger say on the Observation-Disclosures Post.

British Slavery in Natal.

Before went to Natal l was always
under the impression that when our war
ships captured cargoes of slaves the latter
were set free at once or as soon after as
possible. But it is not always the case.
Captured slaves are frequently, If not al
ways, taken on board and landed at the
nearest British port-say, for arguments
sake, Durham, Natal When landed they
are taken to the police station and kept in
prison till certain day named by the local
authorities.
The announcements are then published
by crier and otherwise that on such and
such day so many captured slaves will
be distributed to any one requiring serv-
ants for certain number of years. The
only qualification necessary in order to OBJ
tain such servants is a position of respecta-
bility in the locality, such as belonging to
some profession or trade or possessing in
dependent means.
Now, suppose require servant. sign
a paper before the magistrates, agreeing
to take so and so for SO many years and
feed and clothe him or her, and, although
am supposed to treat such servant well,
can practically do very much as I like
with him short of murder. Should the
unfortunate native get tired Of being bull
lied and run away, I simply notify the
police authorities to that effect and they
send out their native police in search of
the runaway, who generally takes shelter
in the nearest kraal.
On being captured he is brought back to
the police station, logged and returned to
me-his master. Should my servant do
anything think wrong can also have
him fogged by the police at any time

An Old Spanish Story.

There is a good old story told in Spain,
that runs somewhat to this effect:
There was certain man who was gifted
with very peculiar kind of second sight.
When he went to a DOCTORS he could see
outside the door the ghosts of all those pa
tients who had died during the time they
had been attended by the doctor.
One day he himself fell Ill and it became
necessary that he should seek the assistance
of physician, so he started out to find the
best one he could He visited the houses
of all the medical men who were supposed
to be the cleverest in the town, but he
found all their doorways so blocked up, as it
were, with ghosts, that he did not like to
go in.
After traversing all the principal streets
and not finding a single doctor whom he
thought he could trust, he at last turned
into side turning, and outside the door o.
a seemingly Insignificant doctor he saw
only one little white ghost glimmering;
therefore, thinking he must be a very
clever doctor who had only killed one per.
son, he went into the house and was at
tended to by the doctor. AS he was leav.
ing the doctor said to him:
81 cannot think who recommended you
to come to an Insignificant man like my
self, seeing that during the whole time
have practiced have only had one patient,
and I am qui tie sure that he did not tell

Teaching the Child to Talk.

The work of teaching children how to
speak correctly belongs primarily to the
home life, and is as surely one of it's duties
as anything else pertaining to the house.
hold. OF course, the first obligation rests
upon the parents themselves to be patterns
of correct speech before they try to develop
it in the children. Be sure they hear the
English language spoken clearly, pleasant
ly and accurately at the table and the fire
side, and unconsciously they will become
accustomed to expressing their thoughts
in much the same style.
It Is we'll to remember that as soon as q
child begins to frame its mouth for talk
ing, direct training in the art should be
aimed at. There seems to be notion in
some families that little child cannot be
petted and spoken to in common sense
fashion, and as a rule the baby of the
home is addressed by those around 1t in
terms which can only be described as idi-
otto.
During the first four or five years of his
life child should be addressed in pure
Anglo-Saxon speech-words of one or two
syllables-given with the right infection
and emphasis, so that solid foundation of
simple but intelligent utterance may be
laid. After that words of foreign deriva-
ton may be introduced, but the more these
are dabbled with the greater is the need Of
attention and caution.

Hardened To Cold.

Frequently, when we could not expose
our ears for two minutes without having
them frozen, says traveller in Siberia, the
natives would go for an hour at time
with their hoods thrown back from their
heads, and when it required constant
watchfulness to keep our noses from freez-
ing they did not appear to notice the tenn
perature at all.
One morning in January l stood in per
feet amazement at their disregard of the
low temperature. They worked for at
least half an hour with bare hands pack
ing up the tent and utensils, handling the
packages and flashing them together with
ley seal thongs without experiencing the
least apparent inconvenience, while partly
froze my fingers striking light for my
pipe with flint and steel, the whole oper-
alton taking not more than three minutes.
The night before, happening to go out of
the tent after our men had retired, |
passed their camp, which was near by.
Their fire had burned to a pile of embers,
barely affording me light enough to distin-
guish the sleepers. THEY were lying coiled
up on small deerskins, with their backs to
the embers and their fur coats thrown
loosely over their naked bodies.
The coat of one of them had slipped al
most entirely off his body, leaving his back
and shoulders exposed to a temperature of
IS dogs. below zero, Fahrenheit, and though
his hair was frosted, he snored as soundly
as If in comfortable quarters.

He was well known divine, and he had
come to the Tombs in search of material
for sermon upon the hardened and unre-
pentant criminal. A number of very fine
specimens in this line had just returned
from receiving their sentences at special
sessions, and the minister talked briefly
with each of them. The last of the lot was

sneak thieving, and after. having attained
distinction in London as a genius among
his class, he determined to come over and

The expression which he wore was one

Two Kinds of Pineapples.

There are two kinds of pineapples, the
birdseye and the sugar loaf. The former
are not often brought to this market from
the fact that they do not bear transporta-
ton so well as the sugar loaf, being much
more apt to spoil in transit. In the ex-
treme south and West Indies, however,
they are far more highly esteemed for
dessert than the sugar loafs, which, in
turn, are much better suited for preserv-
ing. In the home of the pineapple, the
sugar loafs are eaten raw only when the
birdseye variety cannot be obtained.-St.

To Remove Glass shoppers

Sometimes it is very difficult to remove a
glass stopper from a bottle. A cloth wet
in hot water sometimes - sufficient; but if
this fails, remember that the principle is to
expand the neck of the bottle by heat and
not the stopper. With hot water, the lat
ter is often heated equally with the neck,
and thus the desired effect is not produced
By holding the neck of the bottle about
half an in CHI above the flame of lamp or
candle, however, in few seconds the most
obstinate cork will generally come out.
Care must be taken to turn the bottle
rapidly, and not allow the flame to touch
the glass, as it might crack it. When the
glass is thoroughly heated steady pull
and twist will almost always bring out the
stopper.-New York Tribune.

it. The arrangements are made by the
