Hclpcd by Science.

General Porter tells story about club
man who never went home until morning
and was habitually warmly welcomed by
his wife, but who was helped by the march
of science.
As the ages have rolled on woman has
materially elevated herself in the scale of
being. Now she stops ut nothing. She
soars. She demands the coeducation of
the sexes. She thinks nothing of diving
into the most abstruse branches of the
abstruse sciences. She can calculate the
exact hours Of the night when her hus-
band ought to come home, either according
to the old or the recently adopted method
of calculating time. Ihave known only ono
married man who gained any advantage in
his domestic arrangements by this change
III time. He was n habitue Of a club stu
ated next door to his house.
His wife was always upbraiding him for
coming home late ut night. Fortunately,
when they made this change of time, they
placed one of those meridian lines upon
which they calculated time right between
the club and his house. Every time he
stepped across that imaginary line it set
him back whole hour in time He found
that he could leave his club Mt O'Clock
and get home to his wife at l2, and for the
first time in twenty years peace reigned
around that hearthstone.-New York

A Gameless Country.

The West Indian archipelago, with its
four islands and numberless islets, is called
the gamelcss country because in region
of moro than 100000 square miles there are
no monkeys, no bears, raccoons, wild hogs,
JaSuars, pumas, panthers, lynx, wildcats,
foxes, wolves or jackals. There are not
even woodchucks to be dug out of the many
caves.
On the highlands there are no bisons,
deer, antelope or rabbits. Dogs and cats,
too are unknown, and this lack of house
hold pets seems to have driven the aboriC-
ines to eXpedicnts, for in book called
"Ogilvy's Voyages" there is n story told of
San Domingo native who kept n tame
manatee that made it's headquarters in an
artificial pond and was so we'll trained that
when called by name it would come ont of
the water, go to II natives house, and after
receiving food it returned to the pond nc
companicd by boys who seemed to charm
it by singing, and often it carried two chill
dren on it's back. Its instinct was wonder
full. 1t was once struck by pike in the
hands of n Spaniard and after that always
refused to come out of the water when
there was n clothed man near

At n cornerstone laying in Newark the
cornerstone was swinging i'll the grasp of a
powerful crane above the hole left for it to
fit in. Down in this hole an Irishman was
fussing about with n bed of mortar. Sud
denly portion of the tackle slipped and
down came the stone with a run 1t lit on
the Irishman's back, and everybody ex-
pected to see him flattened out thin MS paper
when the stone was lifted half minute
later No sooner was the stone clear of the
hole, though, than the man sprang up like
n observation-disclosures.
He was covered with mortar from head
to foot ami was coughing, sneezing and
splitting to get it ont of his nose and mouth.
As soon as he could speak, he addressed the
men managing the crane, Here nowi Here

When to myself solemnly had sworn

And sad, sweet face, as solemn us the grave.
What had thought tho end was but u change;
Again find myself Il woman's slave.

Whose lightcst look seems to intoxcate.

Has taught my faltering feet to tread

Would Not Play One Air.

The Duke of Buccleugh was explaining
once the independent spirit of the Scotch
pipers, and gave as an instance that none of
the Buccleugh pipers could be made to play
certain mir which commemoratcd the
flight of the Scots from some rival gang of
maranders century or two ago. An Eng
lishman present could hardly believe that
duke could not enforce obedience from
his own servants
That evening ut dinner, while the pipers
were playing on the terrace, the duke sent
word to them to play this air. The answer
came back very promptly, "They will ma
play it, sir; not for you, sir; not for ony
man, and not for the dell himselfv'-Cor

Ready with His provern.

"She was bright young Yankee school
marm," said Thompson III. Herndon. 'She
came highly recommended to u prosperous
and aristocratic neighborhood not far from
Little Rock few months ago, and was not
long in building up q good school. Time
wore ON and her pupils advanced wonder
fully in their studies. She conceived the
idea a few weeks ago of giving an exhibit
ton of her most proficient class, and invited
hll the neighbors to come to the little school
house on Friday evening. that they might
see and hear for themselves the progress
that had been made by her teachings. There
was good crowd present. She had all tho
little girls and tho little boys stand up
She questioned this one about one thing,
and another about something else. Their
answers were gatifying to the pretty teach
er and to the parents of the children.
Now she said to them toward the
close, i want each of you to repeat some

she asked him if he knew any old provcrb
