Mental Dissipation.

81 know literary man." says philo-
sophie friend, who works from twelve to
eighteen hours a day. He complains
when he has time-that he hasn't half
time enough to do what he would like to
do. That man is study. He is the best
read man knows living encyclopedia
of knowledge. But he doesn't know enough
to come to dinner. l presume such men
are necessary to the world. 1t is curious
thing that the man who works hard with
his brains conceives more work and is in
spired by the ambition to accomplish it,
whereas the man who hasn't anything par
ticularly to do never originates anything
and finds it a task to do anything.
These qualities often exist in the same
man. Now, in my own case, when l am
much driven, l think of lots of things I'd
like to do if had time. l make memo
randum of them and put them aside, work
ing a little on this or that between times.
Just as soon as l am relieved from mental
pressure my thought, capacity, industry
and ambition collapse together. l think
work, congenial mental labor, is a sort OF
dissipation. The more you have of it the
more you want and the more you can do
until something snaps. New York Her

Charles Dickens and the Dog.

"Every one remembers Dan Brosna-
han, the old sexton of st. Patrick's,"
said Mr.. Il. A. Preston. dan had
little dog, homely cur, with the most
plebeian blood in his veins, but re-
markably clever animal. He would fol-
low the sexton everywhere. and the only
way to restrain him was behind closed
doors. One night about twenty-three
years ago Charles Dickens gave a read
ing in Carroll hall. Dan was on hand
to look after the hall, rugged in a dress
coat out of Difference to the great occa-
sion. He had forgotten the dog, but the
dog was on hand.
SIN one of his readings the great nov
elist came to this passage, '"Bow-wow-
wow" barked the little dog He gave
it realistic rendering, and almost with
his words came responsive and Gfelike
echo, 'Bow-wow-wow.' There stood
Dams little yellow cur, directly in front
of Chief Justice Chase, and before the
great men of the nation, mocking their
guest. Dan dragged the dog out. terri
bly, mortified, but Dickens said it was
one Of the finest compliments he ever re-
ceived. "-Washington Post.

The Man with the Paint on His Coat
Didn't Like the Idea.
The stranger was leaning against a
board fence looking dreamily into space,
when the proprietor of the place came
whistling around the corner with paint
pot in his hand. He stopped his whis-
ting when he saw the stranger and hest
tated a moment, apparently undecided
whether to be angry or not.
Excuse me sir, he said finally, "that
paint is fresh"
"Freshi' exclaimed the stranger, sud-
denly waking up and jumping away
from it.
Eyes, sir-fresh." returned the pro-
prietor, looking ruefully at the spot that
the strangers coat had made. 81 put it
on not half al hour ago myself"
"You didn't put any sign on it that
can see," said the stranger sarcastically,
as he tried to look over his shoulder at
the back of his coat.
"Signl sign!" exclaimed the proprietor
growing excited. "Of course / didn't!
hadn't finished the job, and any one but
blamed fool with cold in his head
can smell fresh paint anyway"
'S1neu it!' roared the stranger. "Do
you expect a man in this enlightened
age to go around shifting the air2 Do
you expect him to try to smell of every
fence he wants to lean against or door

he is tired? Do you expect him to go

'Look heret" broke in the proprietor.
"When man comes along and spoils an
artistic piece of work like that
Artistic nothing!" cried the stranger
"You have this coat cleaned, under
standl You get some benzine and clean

''You paint over that spot again!"
broke in the proprietor. "You fix up
what you've ruined or I'll fix you"
He put down the paint pot, took out
the brush, and began war dance
around the stranger
"Hold onr' cried the latter in dismay,
as he backed away. "I'll fix the fence
if you'll FIX the coat"
'I'll fix the coatw exclaimed the pro-
prietor, already beginning to gloat over
his victory. "You fix the fencer'
Give me the brush" said the stran-
ger. When he had secured it he stopped
and asked, ''How are you going tc fig
my coat2'
Paint the rest of it," replied the pro-
prietor gleefully.
Whish, swishl The proprietor went
down the street followed by the paint
brush. Then the stranger took the paint
pot and sprinkled paint over the fence,
the sidewalk and the lawn. He got
away before the proprietor returned
with revelyer, aud he is never seen on
that street now.@Chicago Tribune,

How Vaccine Virus Is Obtained.

The preparation used to produce what
we call vaccination" is known among
medical men as vaccine virus, to produce
which it is necessary to go through sur
gical operation, the subject being young
COW or even calf After scarifying the
belly of the animal (the parts having pre-
viously been shaved, the wound is inocu-
lated with virus from an animal already
in use. A sore is thus formed without
lasting injury to the beast, and after a
week or ten days thin vaccid matter be-
gins to flow from the abrasion. This pus
or matter is the vaccine virus of commerce
Goose quilts which have been scraped
with a knife until they present rough ex-
terror are rubbed in this virus. The virus
from one abrasion is sufficient to coat TO-,
600 quilts, which, after being so prepared,
are technically called points" These
points, when ready for shipment, look very
much like ordinary goose quilts, the virus
coating not being visible to the naked eye.

OF dead sparrows as the result of Dicks
morning efforts. In fact, the number OF
dead sparrows increased daily, and finally
the boys curiosity was aroused. What is
it what kills emp he asked of sympar
thetic old Irishwoman who keeps candy
and fruit store in the block, and whose
sales had been largely increased by the
boys success in sparrow catching. "Shure

A physician of the neighborhood who
has made study of ornithology had his
curiosity aroused by the strange way in
which the birds died and dissected severai
of them to discover the cause of death. To
his surprise he found the old Irishwom-
ans hasty conclusion was correct. In every
case he found the birds heart was rup-
tured. Whether this resulted from the
sudden fright which the birds got when
Dick sprang among them or whether it
was from ''vixashun and disappointment"
the doctor declines to say.-Chicago Times.

INFLUENCE OF WOMAN.
An Encouraging Lesson May Be Drawn
from Queen Esther's Piety.


from Queen Esther's Piety.
An extract from a sermon delivered by
Rev. DIR. Joseph Slovenian at Temple
Emanuel, New York, treats of the infu-
ence and education of woman as follows:
The festival of Purim brings prominent
ly before US the noble character Of Queen
Esther. She is the type of a true woman,
who, when her people were in danger, was
ready to sacrifice her life in their behalf by
pleading for them before her liege lord, the
king. She says to Mordecai, $50 as emble
the Jews who are now present in Shushan
and fast We for me, so that ye neither eat
nor drink three days, neither day or night;
also | myself, with my maidens, will fast in
like manner, and then Will | go in unto the
king, which is not according to the law,
and if l then perish, perish"
We know the result-how the religious
spirit of Esther gave her courage, endowed
her with modesty and grace, made her
pleasing III the eyes of the king, inspired
her with the eloquence to address him, en-
dowed her with those gifts by which she
gradually unfolded her petition, succeeded
in bringing Hannah to punishment and
averted the danger that had threatened
her people. This almost unparalleled vic
tory of Esther is an evidence of what the
religious spirit of timid woman can &C
complish.
What is the proper field for woman is a
frequent subject of the pulpit, platform
and literature of the day. Formerly there
was no need of such discussion, for woman
was a slave, chattel without rights or privi-
leges. Among the Greeks and Romans, it's
true. she did receive the character of a
matron. and beautiful are many of the
praises that poets have bestowed upon her.
But we nevertheless hear the sad refrain
of her inferiority TO man
Among the Hebrews, tits true, she was
accorded position of honor, and no more
beautiful tribute TO woman can be found
than the last chapter Of the Book OF Prov
erbs. Civilization. which can be marked
by advance In art, science, government and
religion, can none the less be traced by the
ever loosening chains Of bondage In which
woman was held. Today marriage is
union of equals who are entitled to recipro-
cal love, respect, claims, duties and privi-
leCeS
At one time only sons were heraided with
Joy. We have gotten over that silly preju-
dice and welcome cur daughters with
equal rejoicing At one time the nation
cared only for her sons-tbey were the
flower Of the land. Today the nation
knows the great worth of her women
Formerly only boys were prepared for the
battle OF life Now we take Is great care
of the education of our daughters.

No Excuse for Late Hours.

There would seem to be no excuse for
the late hours which society prescribes
for its ceremonies. Late evening par
ties for children are admitted TO be in
furious. But we are all children or
ought to be, so far as the laws of health
are concerned We do not, as many
think, by age earn right to violate the
laws of health. Nature takes pay for it
in one way or another.
One difficulty at the foundation of our
social life Is that we do not admit
amusements as necessary to our lives.
We do not set apart time for them, but
insist, if forced into them by fashion.
upon taking them out of time that ought
to be given to rest of mind and body.
The day must all be given TO business,
up to its latest available hour, and then
we take from hours that should be given
TO sleep time for social duries.-New
York Ledger.

Mrs. Astor's Lingerie.

The cedar chests in the Aston mansion
which contain the superb underwear of
the queenly Mrs Astor are perfect house
hold ornaments in themselves, with deep
engraven gold lockers with the initial
"a" wrought in finest carving upon its
surface. Inside the chest, neatly folded
in webs of choicest linen, are the dainty
garments of society's queen. Each week,
as they leave the ironing sheet, they are
laid within the chests to await the bid
ding of the owner. Every article of this
superb wardrobe is stitched by hand,
and no materials but the purest and
finest Of linens and cambrics are used.
They are all deliberately trimmed with
lovely point and duchesse laces, and the
initial ga" is daintily embroidered on
every article.
In the same orderly manner Mrs. As
tor arranges her footwear, which is
equally as exquisite; only the cedar
chests have apartments nodded in which
each slipper and boot fits perfectly and
keeps its shape.
By the way, Mrs. Astor has very
pretty foot for an old lady. Her ankles
are small and shapely and her toes are
extremely narrow. Her daughters, Mrs.
Coleman Drayton and Mrs. Orme Will
son, have neither of them such pretty
feet, and they are eternally envying their
mother her beautiful feet and adorn-
ments.-New York Cor. Pittsburg Dis
