THE TNTENT0R OF STOVES.

While Benjamin Franklin was born
in Boston he can be said to belong to
Pennsylvania as truly as does William
Penn. who was born in England, but
came here, rs did Franklin, from Bos-
ton. And how many people in Phil
adelphia-or elsewhere in the United
States-know that we are indebted
largely to Franklin for the stove which
less than a century ago began to re-
place the fireplaces and more crude
arrangements for CRATES warming our
houses
The Franklin stove, which in. its
days of early development was merely
portable iron fireplace, with open
front, in which wood was burned to
heat an apartment, was given it's
name because it was invented by Ben
jamin Franklin, and was really the
connecting link between the rude fire.

POLITE PHoToGRAPHER.s

The knack which French photogra-
piers, and especially those of Paris,
possess in relieving their sitters of a
constrained and distressed look while
sitting for their portraits has long been
the envy and perpleXity of photogra-
pliers of other nations. An American
photographer, on recent visit to
Paris, took pains to study the means
by which this very desirable result
was reached.
He reports that it all lies in very
simple device, which well illustrates
the nature of the Frenchman.
When Il lady, for instance, is sitting
to Il photographer for a portrait, the
operator does not, in a perfunctorv
manner, coldly request her TO Look
pleasant now, ma'am - He says to
her, in the most natural and graceful
manner in the world:

ASKED ONCE A YEAR.

On the night of March s, 1891, Mr..
Wickwire brought home package.
What have you there, my dear ?"
asked his wife.
"a clock,n said Mr.. Wickwire, with
perhaps trace of something unusual
in his tone ; "a newfangled clock, that
runs a whole year with one wind.
Hereafter | propose to go to sleep in
peace"
His words came true but On the
night of March 8, 1892, he was awak-
ened with great start. He was
dreaming at the moment. He was in
railway wreck, and, as he thought,
the broken driving rod of the over
turned engine was slowly piercing his
vital organs. He walked, as before
said, with a start, and found his wife
arousing him with her elbow.
Whats the matter?'' groaned the
husband.

CRAFTY MASTER FOX.

A fox was one day seen coming out
of a pile of stones near the water side.
He hid in the heather for awhile
and then pushed out something on the
water, which proved to be bunch of
moss. The wind took it into the mid
die of the lake and blew it past some
ducks sitting on the surface.
Having watched his venture for per-
haps ten minutes with apparent salts

the ducks without arousing their sus-
picions, our friend began to collect
another and larger bunch of moss,
which he allowed to float in the same
direction, but this time he swan be-

eyes and nose above water
Just as it was passing the group of
ducks he made sudden dive, pulled

When she cane provided with every
thing he told her to put a touch of
butter on the beetles head. tie the
silk thread around him and place him
on the wall of the tower. Deceived
by the smell of butter, which he sup
posed was above him, the insect con-
tinued to ascend till he reached the

EXACT KNOWLEDGE.

The Importance of exact knowledge
in many things cannot be overesti-
mated. A doctor was asked by a
mother if arrowroot was healthful
food for a babe lie told her it was,
and the mother fed her child on that
alone till it was nearly starved. Had
she known that arrowroot contains
little but starch, which alone cannot
long support life, she might not have

proverb that IA little learning is a
