THE SIGNAL CORPS.
The interest among the members of

consider his helplessness, A man doesn't
know how to take care OF himself. He
is not quite so helpless as a ship at sea
without a compass, but the simile can
almost be truthfully applied. The alb
sense of wife from home has demon
strated to many a man how large and
important part she is of it, and of him.
The right kind of a wife knows better
what is essential to her husbands com.
fort than he does himself-far better. Ha
waits for illness to come, and then COM
bats 1t, frequently when too late. But
the wife sees the symptoms and uses pre-
ventives. Her keen insight tells
her that her husband is unwell when
sometimes he is not conscious of it him

for hours in pair Of wet shoes, or wet

weed and L.incnlr,.

Thurlow Weed was invited to 20 to
Springfield and spend a few days with
the candidate. He went, although he
was heartsick. The dream Of his life
was shattered. Mr.. Seward, who for
nearly thirty years MFR. Weed had re-
garded as his personal candidate for the
Presidency, had been defeated by Lin
coin, and by some magnificent politics
managed by the politicians Of Illinois,
Indiana and Pennsylvania.
Mr.. Weed illustrated his political ca
pacity by accepting the invitation. He
once told friend that too many poll
ticians ruined their influence by sulking
when in defeat, and no one ever saw him
Bulk or vow revenge, except when Mil
lard Fillmore, a man whom Weed was
largely instrumental in making, turned
his back on Weed after Fillmore was
elected Vice President.
He went to Springfield. He found
Lincoln in curious state of mind, which
he described as half-exalted and half
depressed. He spent several days with
him. Every man prominent in the Re-
publican party was analysed and dis
cussed. Mr.. Weed was asked to make
suggestions for the Cabinet, and he did
so with perfect freedom.
When the time came for him to leave
Springfield, Lincoln said, with a humor,
GUS twinkle in his eyes. @Loek here,
Weed, you don't know how have been
warned against you. They have been
telling me some queer stories about you.
They said that your demands would give
me some bother. But here you have
been three or four days, and you haven't
made a request of me. ! want to say
chat noticed that the mon who warned
Me against you had axes of their own to
grind, but ] haven tseen your axe. Where
is it,"
Weed then told the candidate that at
the beginning of his political career he
had made up his mind never to ask
favor. either for himself or any Of hia
friends, of person who was seeking O
nomination or of candidate after he
was nominated. It seemed too much
like using club, and it was likely to
prove boomerang. But he said with q
smile that nobody had ever accused him
of being timid about asking for favors
after a candidate was elected, and he
didn't suppose he would abandon that
custom when Mr.. Lincoln was elected.
For moment Lincoln made no reply.
The answer seemed to strike him as an
unusual response. He looked Mr.. Weed
squarely in the eye--they were men OF
about the same height-and then taking
Weed by the hand he said: II think !
understand why Thurlow Weed has been
able to do the things they tell me he has
accomplished in the East. Globe Dem.

A coon,a Right for Llfa.

There is coon who has been monarch
Of all he surveyed, living in the swamps
of the Oothcaloga, near Gainesville, and
having range in which to sport of three
or four miles. He has been out to the
Yarbrough and Trimble settlement and
been heard CT by his unusually large
tracks, and noticed in the wheat fields
near Lilly Pond. Many attempts have
been made to catch the coon, choice
material for sport to the hunter and
dogs. but the dogs of the best training
failed to run him down. Finally party
was made up of Messrs. Will Morrow
and Tom Stevens with fresh supply of
hounds, whose very ears moved with de-
light at the thought of tracking brer
coon once more. AT Rogers Pond the
dogs opened the tell-tale notes that the
game was before them; they kept well

@treed.
The tree, monarch of the forest stood
on the banks of the stream. After work.
ing some time, it came down from the
axes work, falling in the water, over
half OF it being submerged. No coon
made his appearance then, though the
dogs were in tile water swimming about,
barking as though they had bayed
something. The hunters, after while,
gave up the hunt and had gone nearly
q quarter Of mile up the road when
they heard the dogs still barking where
they had thrown the tree. Hurrying
back, they found that the coon was in
the tree while being under the water, and
nfter they had gone he came out, and the
dog who stood guard duty at the
mouth of the hollow tree attacked the
coon, who attempted to swim back
across, when there was a regular fight to
the death. the coon proving the better,
Notwithstanding the odds against him.
One OF the men swan out in the water,
and with large pole struck the varmint
on the head when it attacked him in

with the help of the dogs, got this father
of all ceons near the bank, when it
ran in a hole, The two men, after a
tedious job, finally dug the coon out,
when the battle ragged furiously, the dogs
yelling with pain whenever they at
tackled the enemy. After long fight
and serious loss on the dogs side, thie
coon, whose paws measured four inches,
and whose hair was gray with long life
Of thieying, was finally killed.

Boys, Clubs.

One of the most useful of recent phil
Anthropic movements is the organization
of boya' clubs in many of the principal
towns OF New England, which provide
for lads who are not properly cared for
at home q pleasant, well guarded placs
of resort. A few rules are given for the
guidance of those interested in the work
First. do not have more boys than you
can take care of. Second, begin with q
few whom you can rely on, and enlarge
that number slowly. Third, if boy be,
haves SO well that you want to see him
again, give him ticket to return with,
Take the ticket away at his first act OF
disorder mot the secondl Fourth, you
can have for amusements, jackstraws,
dominoes, tee-to-tum games, parlor Gro.
quet, checkers, chess, but not pool. bill.
lizards or cards. Fifth, the bait by which
you will take them the most easily is to be
found in the pictured papers, old and
new. 1t is better to have these bound in
volumes. The boys will be utterly indif.
ferent whether they come from
Boston, London, OF Paris, whether
they be old or new. Their cost
need not be great, therefore. Pick
up old files at auction rooms whereves
you can find them. and harass you,
friends until they have. emptied their at.
tics for you. With such appliances you
can bring your boys together and keex
them in some order. II then you have 1
hearty working force Of people who
want to eenliat them ON the side fP -
der, " you can do 80. You can enlarge
your club by classes, lectures, svsnina
schools or what you win.

Ancient Nren in america.

Professor G.. Frederick Wright, in one
OF his Lowell Institute lectures, spoke OF
the origin and antiquity of the human
race in America.
Many things indicate that the original
immigration to America was from the
northwest, since there the absence of land
connection across the shallow seas is the
least British Columbia affords remark
able facilities for the existence and null
tiplication Of savage tribes. and the Fra
ser and Columbia Rivers open up natural
lines of emigration to the interior. New
Mexico and Arizona seem to have been
the region where maize, one Of the most
important elements in the support OF the
original Indian population, was devel-
oped, and where the civilization of tho
Village Indians originated.
The great antiquity of the existing
races of American Indians appears in the
evidence derived from their language,
their social arrangements, and their
stage of culture, showing that they sep
grated from the parent stock of mankind
previous to the origin Of the Aryan Ian
guages and civilization. This would put
their origin back Of the earliest historical
monuments in the valleys of the Nile and
Euphrates. The Eskimo are not to be
classed with the American Indians, since
they differ from them in all the things
above enumerated.
It seems probable that glacial man be-
came extinct in America in company
with many of his companions Of the ami
NAL kingdom, and that he ran the same
course which has been pursued by the
ancestors of existing Indian tribes. Then.
as later, civilization developed more
readily amid the genial conditions of the
Pacific slope. and the rigorous Atlantic
coast received only the more adventure
Gus and vigorous members of the race.

The celebrated Russian painter, Yer.

much rather have painted. He distin.

called ON the artist and told him that the
czar had given him the cross Of Saint
George.
@What do want with the Saint
Georges cross?"
@That's neither here nor there. The
cross is here and you must take it. "
Verestchagin refused to accept tha
cross, and General Kaufman, taking out
his penknife, cut slit in the breast OF
Verestchagan's coat and fastened thu
cross on his breast.
@Thers, you have ruined my only
coat, said the artist.
There was no help for it; he had to ac-
cept the decoration. He said it was a
warning to him never again to give up
the brush for the music.
