it's snap for him.
The checklist thing ever known in political
circles has been undertaken by the republican
chiefs of divisions in the government depart
ments here. They have prepared petition ad
dressed to President Cleveland, asking him to
retain them in Office by extending the Civil Ser
vice rules to the positions they hold. and are
| now trying to obtain the signatures of clerks in
| the classified service thereto. Just why any
clerk should sign it is more than can under
stand. The republican clerks should be well sat
isfed if they are allowed to retain their own
places. without trying to retain their republican
chiefs: and there is certainly no good reason why
any democratic clerk-there are not over many
OF them in Office .anyway-should ibe willing to
sign any such an absurd petition. If your cor
respondent had the power every man who signe !
this petition would have his official head chopped

The ChiIds Glacier.

One of the great glaciers of north
Greenland has been named after Mr.
George w. Childs by Professor Heilprin,
the leader Of the Peary relief expedition
While the members of that party were
engaged in their mission they spent some
time in large and beautiful bay, which
is called after L.. Sonteg, one Of DR..
Hayes party, who lost his life in that
neighborhood while on an exploring trip.
At the head of this bay are two large
and particularly handsome glaciers, one
empyting into the waters from the north
side and the other from the south.
The latter seemed to afford exception
al opportunities Of testing much moot

reach the great interior ice cap by means
of these frozen rivers with the usual i'm
pedimenta of arctic travellers, and Pro
fessor Heilprin decided to attempt the

George Was Tired of Being AWAY.

Georges mother had company in the
parlor one evening when the nurse was
away. Mamma put him to bed and told
him to go to sleep like good boy. He
was very unwilling and was hardly per-
suaded even when she told him that he
would not be by himself, for God was
with him and would take care of him.
at last he consented, and she went down
STAIRS to her visitors. After an hours
pleasant chat she congratulated herself
that the baby was fast asleep, when what
should she see at the parlor door but her
little boy in his white nightgown, look
ing as if he had just stepped down from a
picture and saying pathetically, ..Mam-
ma, dear, you tum up and tay wifi bod

The use of common birdshot in
cleansing bottles, and small glass jars,
is we'll known to most housekeepers,
the friction of the shot, as the bottle
is vigorously shaken, securing off into
the water all that adheres to the sides.
Another good use for it is the weight
ing of valuable ornamental bits of
porcelain which stand in jeopardy
from housemaid's careless handling,
or the inquisitive inspection of a ma
rauding infant. An empty vase upon
mantel may be protected by filling it
with shot or sand, and so weighted it
will serve to hold in place the very
drapery which otherwise might prove
the instrument of it's downfall.

In starting seeds in the house for
the summer flower garden or for the
vegetable garden, shallow boxes con-
tanning a soil of one fourth leaf mold,
one fourth sand and one-half good
garden earth is good enough. Wet
this we'll, and after the surface is a
little dry, sow the seeds, sprinkle
lightly aud cover with paper until the
seeds are seen coming up. Keep where
it is not too light, and at tempera-
ture of 60 degrees. If the room is
likely to fall much below that at night
wrap the boxes in blankets or in
double newspaper until the room is
warm again in the morning. Keep
the surface moist both before and af-
ter the plants come up, but do not
make too wet. When they begin to
crowd, or rather before that time, thin
out to fair distance, transplanting a
part into other boxes Or pots. In
these it would be better to have the
soil little richer, either by adding
a little well rotted manure, or using
more leaf mold. In this way many of
the garden plants can be started that
will grow and bear fruit as early as
those started in the winter.

A fierce newspaper dispute is now

makes very little difference what his
religion was or whether he adhered to
any particular creed or repudiated
them all. He was one Of Gods chos-
en- instruments for the righting of
wrongs and for lifting mankind to
higher and better ideals. His life and
work were a rebuke to those who
fritter away their powers in denounc-
