bending an enraptured gaze upon pretty

The whole party paused and petted him,
and fat little pampered poodle nosed the
youngster jealousy. And the lad with his
golden curls, blue eyes and aristocratic fea,
lures was certainly pretty sight He
was dressed in a velvet Elton jacket and
cooked hat with an ostrich feather in it,
and his fond mamma, sitting on the nearest
bench, drank in the glances of admiration
and words Of praise as sweetest incense to
her soul.
"Oh, you dear childr cried another Of

The first sight of Gibraltar is, think,
disappointing. 1t means so much and
so many lives have been given for it and
so many great ships sunk by its batter
les, and such great powers have warred
for 1900 years for its few miles of stone
that its black outline against the sky
with nothing to measure it with but the
fading stars, is dwarfed and spoiled. 1t
is only after the sun begins to turn the
lights out, and you are able to compare
it with the great ships at its base, and
you see the battlements and the mouths
of cannon and the clouds resting on its
top, that you understand it. And then
when the outline of the crouching lion
that has faced all Europe for hundred
years comes into relief you remember it
is, as they say, the lock to the Mediter
ranean, of which England holds the kew
And even while you feel this and are
greedily following the course of each
rampant and terrace with eyes that are
tired of blank stretches of water some
one points to low line of mountains
lying like blue clouds before the red sky

terious-and you know that it is Africa

Pile came and went every few minutes

an amused gentleman that anybody
who had sense enough to come in when
it rains would have enough left to take
their umbrella with them if they didn't
want to go in, wouldn't your But they
haven't. There may be reason for chap
going away and leaving his cane on the

who deliberately go out into the rain

Yes, they come back sometimes-some-
times they don't. There must be some
thing in the fact of buying railroad tick
cts. You see, they are not used to trav,
cling. Buying railroad ticket is an
event to them They show that by the
questions they ask. They have their
minds gorged with the important details
of the proposed journey, the time the
train is to start, the time it gets there,
the connections, the checking of baggage
and all that sort of thing. and they
haven't room for umbrellas and canes
and packages. It's the same on the cars

Why It Was Named Maclia.

A good many people doubtless have
wondered why Secretary Tracy named
the gunboat launched at Bath, Me-. "a
Machias. Machias people know wby
and are very proud of the exploit Ii
their ancestors, who within few weeks
OF the battle of Concord fought smart
naval engagement and captureda British
schooner which was blockading Their
port. The captain of the British schooner
commanded the men Of Machias to cut
down the liberty pole which they had
set up on their common. The men O.
Machias refused, and there was some
skirmishing of an inconclusive nature.
Finally some bold spirits in the town
fitted out sloop and attacked the
schooner, which was named the Marga-
retta. The engagement was brisk, and
the Americans succeeded in boarding
the schooner, drove her crew below and
pulled down the British colors. Machias
people claim that the Margaretta was
the first British vessel captured in the
Revolution, and their exploit is some
times called 1.-THE Lexington of the Seas
Machias is an historical place, and if
the gunboat is handled with the old
Machias spirit she will give good &C
count of herself. Boston Transcript

Casparo Spontini regarded himself in
the light of demigod, and when in
SEPARATIONS crowded upon him he donped
a wide, togalike gown of white silk with
a border OF gold and fez of white silk
embroidered in gold, from which a heavy
tassel hung down. With great dignity
he sat down before his desk, and if a
grain of dust was visible on the paper On
which he penned his music he rang tbe
bell impatiently for his servant to re.
move the obstacle. Spontini owned so
many medals and decorations that tbev
could no longer be accommodated on his

Suppose that in the wide extent oi 'ne
Atlantic ocean there was one indiyiuuai
diatom of specially interesting char'.o-
teri do not mean one species with its
myriad individuals, but one sohtary
specimen of particular microscopic OF
ganism, which happened to flourish some
where or other in the north or south
Atlantic ocean at some depth or other
from the surface.
Suppose that absolutely nothing fur
Their was known as to the Whereabouts
of this individual object, it might, for
anything we could tell, lie beneath
mighty ice foe in the arctic regions; II
might be miles deep in the Caribbean
sea; it might be basking on the surface
in the equatorial regions; 1t might be
tossed in the surf on the shores OF ST.
Helena; it might be floating at the
mouth Of the Amazon; it might be OIL
the Cape of Good Hope or amid the
Antarctic s,ebergs.
Would any reasonable man who de-
sired to obtain that unique and extraor-
binary specimen for his collection i'm
agine that if he went down to the coast
of Cornwall and lifted u single drop from
the Atlantic he would have such incon-
ceivably good fortune as to find in 1t
this rare diatom Of which but a single
individual existed throughout the mil
lions of cubic miles of water which COM
pose that mighty ocean? or course the
mere statement of such case is suffi-
Gent to show its absurdity. But the
improbability that the ardent naturalist
would secure the prize in the way have
described is not one whit greater than
the improbability that even if there were
a central sun it should lie within the
domain of our scrutiny.-Sir Robert
Ball in Fortnightly Review.

MOTHER slckeaoyke's PICKLES.

Ihs perseverance, Of One Of the Most
Noted Women Of the Civil War.
To many women and to very many men
since the war The name Of Mother Dicker-
dyke has been the name OF the modern Ma
donna, the mother Of man, the woman
whose breast has pillowed more stricken
heads and closed more dying eyes than any
other In all the world, perhaps. When
Mother Bickerdyke reigncd In her big hos.
pital kitchen at Chattanooga she made
frequent visits In AN army wagon drawn
by innles TO the country homes and farms
across the mountains, over terribly rough
roads and through deep mud, TO gather In
rations for "her boys"
During the cold winter her hospital boys
did very well, hat In March, as storms
drenched the trees and earth about the
camp they sickened and many died. Some
We're furloughed and sent north but many
were left behind. Eighty thousand Union
soldiers had tramped over the Tennessee
mountains but only few remained ex.
ccpt the wounded and sick. Mother Bick.
er,iyke took TO Huntsville all who we're left.
and she had charge Of the large military
hospital. But scurvy followed the dread.
fui privations Of winter. and nothing could
save them except vegetables, fruts or
pickles.
Mrs. Porter took charge OF the boys and
the ninther'started out for supplies. She
spoke in public halls and churches, with
appeals for her dying boys" She received
gifts OF dried fruits In Nashville; the little
children sent her barrels Of potatoes and
the aid societies gave her jclies and canned
goods- She stopped ut the capital on her
way north, spending week with friends
and begging vigorously.
One day, while General Grant was I'm
Washington on business with the presi
dent, he was driving with some gentleman
on Pennsylvania avenue when he saw lust
