Lecturing to Royal Children.

Of the first lesson given to the royal
children Mr.. Hart says that when the
professor (Sir Richard Owen) first ar.
rived at Windsor castle he inquired
where he should hang up his diagrams,
as these lectures were to be given in the
white drawing room, the walls Of which
were covered with white satin. The an
swer was that he was to do exactly as he
pleased. The gentleman in waiting was
therefore of opinion that he should pin
the drawings upon the white satin hang
ings, but this the professor declined to
do, and thereupon requested to be led to
the laundry of the castle, to the blank
amazement Of the official. When he ar
rived there he picked out the largest
clotheshorse he could find, and, having
procured some green baize, rugged up an
impromptu stand, which showed off his
diagrams to the best advantage.-Lon-

Big Pay for Little Work.

The number of accidents which have
befallen the big steamship lines have
been surprisingly few. When mishaps
have occurred large sums have been
awarded for comparatively trivial serv-
ices, such as towing for a day or two.
The neutrality-suspicious. liner Suevia,
from New York to Hamburg, broke her
shaft off the Irish coast on Jan. 81, 1885,
and was lowed into Queenstown harbor
by the tramp steamship I~strian, bound
from Boston to Liverpool. The Istrian
was awarded $23,250 salvage.
The passenger steamship City of Rich
mond, from Liverpool to New York, was
disabled at sea in November, 1882. She
was taken into Halifax harbor by the
tramp steamship Circassia, a service in
vOlving ffty-four hours of towing. The
salvage awarded by the British admiralty
court was 49,, 00.-New York Evening

Obeying Instructions.

When the new apprentice assumed his
duties at the Turkish bath establishment
the manager thought he seemed rather
stupid and entered into a long explana-
ton of what he was to do. He particular
Iy emphasized the command that the at
tendant was to rub em without mercy"
During the day the manager heard a
great many complaints from his patrons
that they had lost their personal prop
erty. He thought that a sneak thief
must have come in to get washed, and
resolved to be on the look out. He dis
covered nothing, however, though he
peeked around most of the day like an
amateur detective, hiding in all sorts OF
places.
Toward the time when the new attend
ant was t 0 go off duty, the latter went
into the managers Office and began be-
having with much mystery. He walked
around like a wet hen, waiting until the
coast was clear. When there was none
but himself and his chief in the office he
tiptoed up to the door and locked it.
Then he produced from his pockets five
gold watches, some diamond rings, a few
scarfpins and other articles, which he
set forth with great pride before the
manager, who, hOrrorstruck, recognized
the effects as belonging to his customers.

Women and Dogs, Etc.

In the late Montagu Williams book,
Around London" there is a striking
testimony to the truth of an old saying
concerning women. eff any one" said
Mr.. Williams, has doubts as to the
b~rutalities practiced on women by men,
let him visit the London hospital on a
Saturday night. Very terrible sights
will meet his eye. Sometimes as many
as twelve Or fourteen women may be
seen seated in the receiving room wait
ing for their bruised and bleeding faces
and bodies to be attended to. In nine
cases out of ten the injuries have been
inflicted by brutal husbands. The nurses
tell me, however, that any remarks they
may make rejecting on the aggressors
are received with great indignation by
the wretched sufferers. They positively
will not hear a single word against the
cowardly rufiians.
Sometimes, said a nurse to me,
when l have told a woman that her hus-
band is a brute, she has drawn herself
up and replied: You mind your own
business, miss. We find the rates and
taxes, and the likes Of you are paid out

Indiscriminate Giving.

It is all very well to preach against in.
discriminate charity, and to those who
are inclined to b%enevolence the lesson Is
most valuable. There is too much care
less giving, for charity no doubt often
breeds m~endicancy, and if there is to be
giving it ought to be thoughtful, to the
end that it Eay do good and not evil.
Besides the charitably disposed, how
ever, are those who are careless of the
~misfortunes Of their neighbors and
those whose selfshness is rarely tempt
ed to make a sacrifice for the happiness
of their kind.
When such as these do a charity they
are the important benefciaries, and it is
to them that the divine precept concern
ing the blessedness of giving applies. II
matters little whether these give with
discrimination or discrimination; their
gifts ere so few that they cannot work
much harm. If the encouragement of
begging depended on the occasionally
and systematically generous, the trade
would assuredly die out. 1t is well not
to preach the cold truth to them, for
they need little enough excuse for but
toning up their pockets. Let them open
their hearts when they will, thoughtless.

An Anecdote of DOrothea Dix.

A rural New Jersey member who had
announced in the house that the wants
and sufferings Of the insane of the state
"were all humbug," went to the parlor
OF DorOthea Dix to silence her with his
arguments, but was constrained by her
gentle force to listen to hers. At the
end of al hour and a half he moved into
the middle of the room and thus deliv-
cred himself: "Ma'am, l bid you good,
night. do not want, for my part, to
hear anything more; the others can stay
if they want to; l am convinced; you've
conquered me out and out; | shall vote
for the hospital. If you'll come to the
house and talk there as you've done here,
no man that isn't a brute can stand you,
and so, when a mans convinced, that's
enough. The Lord bless you!" There
upon he took his departure. -Mary S.

in Greece.

A legend of one of Buddha's earliest
pupils tells us that the young man used
to pass the whole rainy season in his
palace surrounded by dancing girls.
Once he saw a bevy of them asleep in
~unbecoming attitudes, and he woke up
and said, This will never do" So he
Joined Buddha. Now, a life of heavy
heat, long rainy seasons and unceasing
dancing girls is very well calculated to
bring a man to suicide or to Buddhism.
AS far as Buddhism means unselfish
kindness (and it demands a great deal Of
that from a true disciple), it is exactly
as good as any other religion which makes
the same requirement.
But as far as it is pedantic, morbid,
puerile and superstitious, busy with
arithmetical strings of propositions, with
austerities, ending in self hypnotism,
with an ideal of universal suicide, it is
difficult to see how the natives of a
temperate climate can acquiesce in the
developed doctrines Of Buddhism. Had
Gotama come to Greece and preached at
the Olympic games it is unlikely that he
would have made a single convert

Like Mothers Cooking.

There is something queer about the idea

compares it with his wife's cooking to
