They do not look for any immediate change,

 -Kindergartens were devised by Froebel. and practically carried out by Mir. and Mrs. Ronge in Germany, in 1s49.
 A church at Fostoria, O., had de- cided to purchase four hundred little glasses. that each communicant may receive the wine out of glass no other person has used, in order to avoid microbes.
 It is said that if the United States were supplied with ministers in the proportion that the heather world is with missionaries there would be alto gether about two hundred and seventy five, about two-thirds as many as there are now in Boston alone.
 In Africa seven hundred languages are spoken. If we were to send two missionaries to each people speaking distinct language. we should need four teen hundred workers, whereas there are not more than five hundred or six hundred. all told, in Africa.

If you can, you're getting on. Such little words as "grievng,H ''galimaufry,' ,'' and 'deceivng' Oh there's really no believing what mistakes you sometimes seel "Pyenosty.e," 'paroxysmai,' "caryatides' and ''chrismal.'

 As for Mir. Winthrop. the girl, so sweet and womanly, grew very dear indeed to him, and became the bright center around which revolved all his hopes and ambitions. Love with How ard Winthrop was no light matter. As the ocean is stirred by tempest, so his nature was moved to its profound depths by his love for Elaine.
 It was May. A little party had ex- changed for a few days the gray city for the sweet, green country, and among them were Mir. Winthrop and Elaine.
 Tt makes me feel like writing spring poetry" said the girl, as the two were strolling over the verdant meadows. By the way, Mir. Winthrop, you never published that poem l gave you year ago. don't believe you intended to- this last with charming pout. No, l reserved it for better fate, " was the grave reply. And what is that, pray?" she asked. Tt is this" he said, taking from an inner pocket the crumpled manuscript. II have carried it near my heart" She blushed, but turned the subject aside with laugh

And speak in accents soft of love- So why not wey' With crimson face she returned the paper to him. He took the unresisting h and in both of his own, and held it tightly.

 She spoke not word, but only leaned her head against his shoulder and he was satisfied. = Walter Hall Jewett, in Chicago Graphic.

ANCIENT CORRESPONDENCE.
Certain Important Indications of Early
 Civilization of Palestine.

Certain Important Indications of Early
 Civilization of Palestine.
 We have become possessed of certain very important indications as to the early civilization ot Palestine by means of clay tablets. Not that the knowledge so attained is altogether new or that it conflicts with that which has been ieduced from yet earlier Egyptian rec Drds. It IS we'll known to scholars that Thothmes H., when he defeated the league of Hittites and Phoenicians at Megiddo. in 1900 B. C. Ia century before Amenophis III. acceded), reaped spoil which indicates the advanced civiliza- tion of Syria, including not only the precious metals and chariots painted and plated, but also objects of art hay ing a high esthetic value, and that he found corn, wine and oil abundant in that country, and many hundreds of walled towns. in which there were al- ready temples of the gods.
 Such evidence has, however, been sighted by those who regard the early Hebrews as savages, and who think that, though placed in the very center of the ancient civilized world, between the Egyptians and the Assyrians, they were, nevertheless, unacquainted with any arts and uninfluenced by surround ing culture. The new discoveries in- sist on quite another understanding of their ancient history.
 It is surely a lesson of humility that the modern student should learn from such discoveries. Voltaire was no doubt writer of great originality and acumen, though, from our present standpoint, wonderfully ignorant of antiquity. He finds it hard to believe that Homer's poems could have been written down 500 B. C., and asserts that papyrus had not been invented m Egypt in the time of Moses, though we now possess in the maxims of Ptah hotep a manuscript as old as the pyra- mids.
 We find, on the contrary, that not only in Egypt or in Mesopotamia was the art of writing known in the time of Moses, but that the inhabitants of Palestine also could pen brick epistle which, in the space of few inches, contained as much information as can now be condensed into sheet of note paper Such letters were neither heavy nor bulky and could be carried in the turban or in the folds of the shirt bosom just as easily as paper letters are now so carried. with the additional advantage that they were imperish' able. as is witnessed by the fact that they are now being read thirty -foua hundred years after they were written.

NOTHING TO GET MAD ABOUT.

A Good Four Inches Between Moses How
 ard and old Bill Huston's Bullet.
 "It was while Stemwinder Johnson had the upper store at the Rosebud ' said Col. George Barry at the LotOs club. that Nose Howard was the chief government herder for the agency. was stationed at Fort Niobrara in those days, and occasionally got over to the Rosebud at other times than issue days. Old Bill Huston, a sort of retired cow boy, was hanging around the agency then. sometimes working as herder. but for the most part picking up what he could as hunter He was the finest shot with Winchester l ever saw, and thought nothing of taking off the head of sage hen at one hundred yards. He wouldn't pick up jack rabbit that he'd hit anywhere else than in the head.
 "Mose Howard and old Bill Huston were good friends Nose used to say in his slow drawl: old Bill ain't sech a thunderin feller as he use' to be, but he's a humble citizen, an that's me every time
 "One day. when l happened to be in Johnson's store Nose came in, more ex. cited than had ever seen him before. For a quarter of an hour he didn't say a word but stood over by the big stove it was cold, raw day in the fall chewing tobacco and shooting tarantula juice in way that showed violent per turbation of spirit
 "'Say, Johnson he drawled out, 'wha' dye think old Bill Huston done: Well. if he didn't come plum nigh to shooting me cold Pm goat. was comin' up i'm the lower store, nd was bout half way across, when a Winches. ter ball binged right past my ear SC close l could feel the wind of it looked around bit, an over there on the creek bout half a mile. was old Bill Huston pickin' up sage hen. Sa-a-y, maybe you fellers bleeve wasn't hostile
 What did you do, Moses' asked Johnson.
 "I jess waltzed over there.' answered Nose, 'an' says l to Bill: What in blazes," says, lair you shootin' at?'
 "'"Humphr' says Bill. You cussed fool, don't you spose seen you? Moved around till you was plum four inches out O range "'"-N. Y. Sun.
