One Way of EkinG Out a Living.

A country parson in England eked
out a small income by sending begging
letters all over the country. He has
mailed fully 125. 600 Of them during tif-
teen years; his wife has sent II 600
more, and his children, as soon as they
could write, spent ii great part Of their
time in writing appeals for money. Re-
sponses were received with cash from
about one person in fifty. One gentle
man was generous enough to send S25.-
900 to the begging clergyman Yankee

common one Of humanity.

my letter. 1t was a long epistle.

mother and bore her signature. The
letter did ne world of good, for every
line OF it was fraught with love such as
a mother would express to an absent
daughter, and after reading it felt so
much less alone and friendless. 1t con-
tanned much good advice, too, given in
such delicate way as not to appear in
the least officious; and, besides, it bore
many expressions of motherly solicit
tude.

you ever stand in need of friends or a
home you have but to come to us.
Both my husband and son beg me to as
sure you that it would afford them the
greatest pleasure to be Of service to
you. So, my dear, do not, out of false
modesty or pride, fail to avail yourself
OF our assistance should you ever need

UNDER DIFFICULTIES.
The Passengers Tried to Give a Chart
Concert, But Couldn't.

The Passengers Tried to Give n Charity
Concert, But Couldn't.
A charity concert was to be given on
shipboard, says the author of "A Win
ter Cruise in Summer Seas" but on the
appointed day the wind and sea rose.
and almost every passenger succumbed
to sea-sicllness. So rough did it be-
come that men and women lay prone in
the cabin, clutching at any visible
means of support" in order to escape
being hurled against the walls. All
day long had the management of the
concert, paper and pencil in hand, been
cruising about, interviewing invalids
for particulars of the work they pro-
posed doing for the entertainment.
One minute he might be seen, arm
about a stay, trying to make a note on
paper, which would suddenly jump up
and poke the pencil in his eye. Then
he would be graphing with a saloon
chair, which would dash at him and
fell him to the floor. A little later one
might see him and a possible performer
brought together in a way to make
them bosom enemies.
This concert agent, having by a
series of athletic exercises, reached the
piano, thus addressed the audience:
Ladies and gentlemen" there he un-
expectedly sat down on the piano stooD,

piano.

Here he grabbed at friends hair.
THE gentlemen down for recitations
are still present, but the noise caused
by the wind renders reciting difficult,
so the captain has lent his speaking
trumpet, by the aid of which we hope
to be able to hear them"
He then produced the trumpet, at the
sight of which an impetuous scramble
was made for the doors.

was disturbed for him, but could do
nothing only wait.
Presently he became more quiet, and,
taking up his hat, looked at me in a
curious, undecided way for an instant,
then turned and left the room without
a word.

Depravity Of the Esouimau,.

Along the arctic coast men cut off the
hair on top of their heads, so that they
look like monks, the object being to
avoid soaring the caribou by the futter
OF their locks. The Esquimaux are
fond of eggs not yet Matched, but about
to be. They are much addicted to
liquor and tobacco, and it is common
