Drinking the Health.

Drinking ones health is the custom the
world over, and the toasts of all nations
are practically the same. The "a votre
sante' Of the Frenchman is the same to
all intents and purposes as the ''alla sa-
lutte" Of the Italian and the Your good
health" of the American. But in the
United States we have innumerable ex-
pressions Of good will W the cups
such, for instance, as My regards"
which is eastern; Here's how" which
is western; Il look to des you, sir"
which is southern, or Here's my pious."
meaning my pious regards" Other
A~mericanisms are Good luck" I'm
looking at you," Here's your eye"
It'll we meet again." Happy days."
MAY your shadow never grow less" etc.

Jenny Lind's Temper.

A Boston woman, whose name is not
printed, is reported to have taken sing
ing lessons Of Jenny Lind a good many
years ago and to have found the Swedish
nightingale a great scold. Her temper
at this time was such that she would
often fly into a great rage, and her hus-
band would have to entice her out of the
room to soothe her, after which she
would come back with affability drawn
V e her wrath so oppressive in her
courtesy that the student hardly dared
to breathe for fear Of starting her off
again.
The American confessed that she spent
more Of her lesson hours crying than
singing, and added: Her reprimands
were often personal. She would look at
me and calculate, oh. you look SO ugly
when you sing.' 1t was impossible to re-
sist apologizing for ones appearance
when she spoke like that, and that threw
her into a new rage."-Mahogany Tree.

High" Game.

DR.. Wynter Blyth. the medical officer
of health for Marylebone, is the sworn
enemy Of high game, on the perfectly
consistent ground that no valid distinc-
ton can be drawn between decomposi-
ton in the rabbit and the same process
in the hare. If be injurious, he OBJ
served. so must be the other, and though
he does not venture to suggest the prose
cution Of vendors of game under the san
itary laws. he does not hesitate to de
scribe this culinary eccentricity as a
filthy and disgusting habit" His argu-
ments, however, are double edged. Ad-
hitting that ~decomposing rabbit is fully
as injurious as highly favored pheasant,
we are at liberty to argue that, as the
consumption of high game is seldom fol-
lowed by toxic symptoms, the prohibi-
ton in respect of decomposing meat gen
orally is unnecessary.
Common experience seems to show
that the products Of ordinary decompo-
sitiOn, at any rate in its earlier stage,
are destroyed or rendered inert by cook
ing; otherwise the mortality among the
disciples Of Lucullus in the upper classes
would be phenomenal. The danger lies
presumably in the fact that decompos-
ing animal tissues afford a suitable me-
dunn for the autocultivation of BAG
terra other than those of decomposition,
the toxic products whereof may resist
the influence of a high temperature. We
are loath to believe i'll OF a practice
which, if asthetically Objectionable, is
hallowed by centuries Of apparent i'm
punity.-London Medical Press.

This went on for couple Of months or

here. The little gray figure plodded in

her lips to keep back the tears of disap-
pointment and longing for human inter
course and sympathy. At last one day
she dropped the pencil and sprang up,

and wise-elever AMI wise" She lay
there quite still. with Eer head on the
marble. and l saw a tear fall from the
eyes of the lovely goddess and glisten in
the girls dull hair like a moonstone.
The little gray student lifted up her head
pitifully and looked up into the sweet,
grave. but (alas! for her sightless eyes.

No. Why should T." said the Boy.
"Bnt he is a philosopher and a great

he said, putting a strong arm round her.

shine tilckered lovingly down on the
shabby, gray linsy and the rich lnosaics

Some one came in a few hours later
and carried her away gently. She has

No, | don't blame the boy. It wasn't
anybody's fault in particular. He was

he was as sympathetic as the tenderest

Clever Spiders.


took large spider from his web under
the basement of a mill, put him on a chip
of wood and set him afoat on the quiet
waters of the pond. He walked all about
the sides of his bark, surveying the situa-
ton very carefully, and when the fact that
he was really afoat and about yard from
shore seemed to be fully comprehended he
looked out for the nearest land.
This point fairly settled upon, he imme-
diately began to cast web for it, He
threw 1t as far as possible in the air and
with the wind 1t soon reached the shore
and made fast to the spires of grass. Then
he turned himself about and in true sailor
fashion began to haul in hand over hand
on his cable. Carefully he drew upon it
until his bark began to move toward shore.
AS it moved the faster, he the faster drew
upon it to keep his hawser taut and from
touching the water Very soon he reached
the shore, and quickly leaping to terra
| firma sped his way homeward.
! Thinking That he might be special ex.
pert sad IN exception in that line of boat
manship to tho rest of his companions,
tried several of them. They all came to
shore in like manner.-New York Adyer-

Tho most universally colored article is
butter, and it may with great confidence be
asserted that there is hardly pound of
butter sold at the present time i'll this
country which has not been doctored, most
ly by the aid of a harmless coloring matter
-dnnatto-in order TO impart to such but
ter rich golden color. Butter naturally
varies much in color, according to the sea-
son, the breed Of the COW and mainly Its
food, and it is but rarely the natural butter
possesses the color to which the public is
now accustomed. The desire of those who
introduced this adnixture was obviously
to make their produce appear richer and
more enticing to the eye than nature had
intended One after the other the rest of
the butter merchants had to follow suit

Down the dim slope where still you stumble

May serve your memories, like almighty wine
When YOU are old.
Dear heart, 1t shall DO So Under the sway
