That nature delights in extremes
was verified in the antics of the
weather, Monday and Tuesday. Mon
day was mild and pleasant, the sun
shining brightly, the thermometer
standing 10 to 20 degrees above zero
throughout the day. Tuesday opened
wild and woolly, the wind blowing a
gale, the snow falling thick and fast
filing roads, and covering sidewalks:
so that business was almost stagnated
It was the first severe storm of the
winter in this part of tt State, but
came near making up in Intensity fol

Increase at Compound Interest.

At the birth of his son a father
placed at interest at six per cent the
sum of 81 600, and each year invested
all the interest at the same rate.
When the boy was twenty-one years
old he found himself the possessor of
$3,399.56. Being a young man of
pluck and energy, and anxious to try
his hand in unaided competition, he
told his father to keep the money and
he would take his chance with the
poor boys of his acquaintance. When
the son was fifty years old the father
notified him that his fortune had
grown to over $1S,42O, using round
numbers. At evenly the father call
ed his sons attention to his fortune
of over 5000, and since the son had
received the rewards of his industry
he did not still take possession of the
fortune. The father soon after died,
and in his will required his executors
to keep the principal and interest
loaned until the son should receive it
or be removed by death. The latter
lived to good old age, and besides
the accumulations of a busy and
prosperous life. was lncumbered with

Tons Of Rotten Books.

For the past several months the
senate has had special force of men
examining and counting the books
which are stored away in the base
ment Of the capitol and in rented
buildings of the government. The
result of their work will be a report,
the purpose of which is expected to
lead to some reform in connection
with the government publications.
Their exploration into the subterra-
mean depths of the capitol buildings
have been almost like journeys into
darkest Africa. They have found
more than million books-how
many more than a million no one can
tell yet. There are innumerable pub
licatlons by congress at each session,
thousands of books being printed and
divided IN certain proportion be-
tween the senators and members, each
senator having quote running from
one copy of the nautical almanac to
one hundred copies of the agricultur-
al reports. New men in congress,
those who are inexperienced, are in
the habit of distributing these books
among their constituents, but the
older birds know better, for book
sent to one constituent is liable to Of
fend those who do not get one like it.
In consequence of the wisdom which
some of our statesmen have acquired
on this subject there are now stored
away in the capitol thousands of
books belonging to number Of sena-
tors running back as far as twenty
years. Some of the books found had
been stored away in the cellar since
1865, and there were several tons so
completely rotted that their character
could hardly be determined, and they

Fifteen thousand pilgrims annually
visit st. Baume, in Provence. not far
from Msrseilles, in France, where
Mary Magdalene is said to have spent
the last thirty years of her life. The
legend runs that Mary Magdalene
came from Judea in a small boat with
Lazarus, Martha, the two Marys and
Salome. bringing with them the body
of st. Anne, the head of st. James
the Less and few wee bones of the
innocents mastered by King Herod.
But from early ages this story has
been disputed, and the Able Ouch
enc, one of the most erudite writers
on the early christian saints and mar
tyrs, considers that the relics of Ma
ry Magdalene were probably sent
from Constlnople about the seventh
century. AGreek brevlary, however,
speaks of the saint having died at
Ephesus. The pilgrimages are to a
kind of grotto, which is supposed by
local tradition to have been the
place where Mary Magdalene spent
her old age. Be that as it may, it
seems there is no older or more pic
tu1esque place of pilgrimage in Eu-
rope. In addition there can be seen
at ST. Baume forest which has been
practically kept intact since the days
of old Gaul. The Dominicans' con-
vent is practically the only inn in
those parts and every visitor had to
put up with the severely plain &C
commodation provided by the monas-
tic cell, and simple and clean food.
The convent contains about one hun
dred beds; the lady visitors are serv-
ed by nuns, and the gentlemen by
monks. The convent, which looks al
most as ancient as the grotto, is sit
uated on the edge Of a vast rocky
chain of hills, and almost opposite
the monastery, half way up the steep
incline, is the famous grotto cut into
the solid rock. There wide plat
form is hewn, partly occupied at
present by a second convent. The
grotto is about twenty-five yards
square, eight yards high, and, to all
intents and purposes, a chapel. The
principal altar is surrounded by a
statue representing Mary Magdalene
praying. 1t is strange to stand on
the spot, apart from the feeling con-
nected with the great STINT tu whom
it is dedicated, and to think Of all
those who have stood in the grotto.

Taught \ Lesson.

A certain pompous lady, after teas
ing the shopman of a millinery es-
Establishments beyond the forbearsnce
limit, pomponsly ordered a spool of
cotton to be sent to her house. 1t
was agreed she should be made an
example of and a warning to her kind.
She was surprised, and her neighbors
intensely interested, soon after she
arrived home. A common dray,
drawn by four horses, proceeded
slowly to her door. On it were a
number of stalwart laborers. They
were holding on vigorously to some
object she could not see. It was a
most pulling affair The neighbors
stared. After deal of whip crack
ing and other impressive ceremonies
the dray was backed against the curb.
There, reposing calmly, end up in
the center of the dray was the identi-
cal spool of cotton she had ordered.
With the aid of plank it was finally
rolled, barrel fashion, to the pave
ment. After q mortal struggle it was
on the purchasers doorstep.
The fact that the purchaser came out
a little later and kicked her property
into the gutter detracted nothing
from it.-L0ndon Million.

To New York via Washington.

One of the most delightful routes
from Chicago, st. Louis and Cincin-
natl to New York is the B. & o. r. r.,
via Washington. The trip possesses
many peculiar charms, especially to
one whose journeyings have never
taken hin to the borders of the sunny
southland. The ride through the
Monongahels Valley, over the Allie
ghaLey mountains, and then along
the historic Potomac, awakens keen
interest in the lover of the pictures
que. Much of the ground traversed
has unique historic associations A
large part of this region was debata-
BILE land during the civil war. Across
these fields and down these dusty
roads once marched now the blue and
now the gray. These valleys once
rang with cheers, now for the Stars
andsStripes, and now for the Stars
and Bars. These mountainous heights
more than once echoed the sounds of
deadly conflict. Here General Lee
invaded Maryland and Pennsylvania,
only to be repulsed at Gettysburg.
Here Stonewall Jackson directed his
forces on that grand hunting excur-
sion," by which he corraled the Fed
eral forces in Hsrper's Ferry. Ana
here at Harper's Ferry was John
Browns old brick fort. To one who
remembers when these names were
first written in blood, what an excite
ment of feeling their mention arouses
as do also the names Antietam, Sharp
burg, South Mountain. Shenandoah,
Harper's Ferry, Balls Bluff.
Soon after Harper's Ferry is passed
there 10 seen dimly the white marble
shaft of Washington's Monument,
and than great white dome, and
then other pinnacles and spires, and
Washington is reached.
Even the most cursory glance at the
city is sure to be profoundly impress
sive. A half hours drive through
the streets will reveal those features
which have given the city its repnta-
ton and made it, in one sense, the
Mecca of all patriotic citizens of this
country.
New York is about five honr's ride
from Washington via the famous
Royal Blue Line. The road touches |
at Baltimore, Wilmington and Phila-
delphia. This is one of the finest Sec
tions of railroad in the world, the
speed of the trains often ever sixty
miles an hour.-North,cest Con-
gregationalist
