Tendencies and Effects.

Each phase of mans mind and
life, says l.. G. Wunder in Leisure
Hours, Is fraught with pleasure OF
pain, and worthy of praise or blame, ac-
cording to the motives or principle by
which he is actuated and guided, for
its result, and "the thread OF our life
is of mingled yarn" Sir Walter
Scott writes, There's aye guide and
Ill l. the chief"
II man follows the bent OF his
own inclinations, he must keep his
passions and desires under the con-
troll OF reason, or he may do many
things amiss which will cause him
regret. Peace chooses for her home
the breast in which she finds har-
mony. To every earnest heart, life
will seem richer and brighter In CON-
partnership with toll, disappointment
and reverses, IL fortified with
strength, resolution and endurance,
than when passed away in elegant
ease and the pride Of profuslon. Men
who would take the world by storm
rather than silently, work for their
own welfare and the public good; men
who will allow the efforts of their
souls to be wasted in useless pursuit
after chimerical objects, without
fixed purpose TO gain what is best aud
most reliable. will never attain any
beneficial results for themselves OF
Others. Beneath the mantle of con-
ventionalism the human heart is still
seen throbbing, filled with hope and
desire fol. improvement, though self
ishness, prejudice and vanity may
have dominated our lives and caused
our own actions to degenerate. The
man who wanders from. right and
duty Ia sure to go adrift and be at ths
mercy OF contending elements.
Honor aud integrity are thereby SURE
safeguards Of home.

Printing Under plnacu.tles.

DIR. Edward Everett Hale'S father
was newspaper editor, and his boy:
printed a newspaper of their own,
called the Fly. In the December
Atlantic Doctor Heath tells an anus
ing story of the difficulties under
which the last issue of it was printed,
in 1886.
"We had not type enough then tc
print more than one page at time.
Three pages had been printed, and
the fourth was still to be set up,
when the news of Lafayette's death
arrived. This was too good a para.
graph to be lost, and we knew we
could anticipate every other news
paper in Boston by inserting it.
But, unfortunately, the ms had
given out. We had turned upside
down all the us we had, and they al
so had given out. Also. still more
unfortunately for printers in this
difficulty, Lafayette had chosen to
die of an Influenza" which disease
was at that moment asserting itself
under that name in France. 1t had
not yet been called ala grippe" which
would have saved us.
"We succeeded in announcing the
death of ."the good, generous, noble
Lafayette, although generous" add
ed one and one u, and noble took
one OF the last MS. The paragraph
went on to say that the death was
caused by" and the last was de-
yOured nv .CauSed ,
Then came the word influenza.
The boldest held his breath for a
time. But we were obliged ignomin-
1ously to go TO press with the state
ment that his death was caused by a
cold. This was safe, and required
no and no u. Alasl In the making
up of the form the precious OF the
word noble fell out; and any library
which contains a file of the fly will
show that its last statement to the
world is that the good, generous,
oble Lafayette has died; his death
being caused by cold
Such are the exigencies Of boy
printers in all times.

The islands are as beautiful as the
people are good-natured., Never ceas-
ing Yerdure, which invades every nook
affording fingerhold for a chnging ten

which Is habitation and which is thicket;
towering mountains, often capped by
inextinguishable volcanic fires instead
Of snow; winding valleys, through
whose bosky depths crystal streams
glitter in the summer and change to
raging torrents In the rainy season-all
these are there with other wonders-all
beautiful. By the wayside grass cot
tages for the natives and pretty wooden
structures for the foreigners offer open
hearted hospitality to the tourist.
Breezes always blow. They blow health
to the foreign invalid; but. alas! they
sometimes blow horror and death to the
native.
Leprosy Is decreasing in Hawaii. it is
said; but still the famous leper colony
on Molokai, one OF the most beautiful
islands of the group, does not lack ten
ants. Narrowing farewell scenes are
not unusual at the isolated Honolulu
wharf from which the leper boat sails.
"Aloha!" murmurs the departing one,
which means farewell. "Alohal aloha!"
cry the dear ones left behind, and they
rend the air and fill their mouths with
ashes in the extremity of their grief, for
it is aloha" foreverl The human freight
on the little steamer is carried on its
plunging, wave-rocked way to a doom
more terrible than death--a living,
breathing, conscious decay. In that
leper settlement all that IL not human

weeks he and his sailors basked in the

they valued most-from quaint, carved
trlnkets 10 their wives-to make their
peace with the white skinned emissarles
from heaven. At last they found that
they had been deceived-that Cook and

I'm This Manchester OF Francs Joan OF Arc
Was burned.

Was Burned.
Rouen, capital Of the ancient prov
ince OF Normandy, France, has had a
checkered history. 1t Is a city con-
secrated by centuries OF historical as
sociations, but IL sleeps not as do
some OF those towns that are useful
for little besides forming a connect
ing link between civilizations that
are dead and gone and the present.
ROuen is the Manchester OF France.
Its quays on the Seine are lined with
new warehouses, and the din OF its
mills and the smoke of its furnaces
announce that IL is In touch with the
progress OF the age. Yet 1t Is withal
quaint and picturesque. In places
the buildings OF past centuries re-
main, and one In beholding them can
almost go back to the times of Will
lam the Conqueror or Joan OF Arc.
Normandy first became an impor-
tant province under the Northman,
Rollo, who first was terror and
scourge, but after his conversion to
Christianity In 912 became blessing
and a founder of the Dukedom Of
Normandy. Rouen shared with the
province the vicissitudes occasioned
by the many wars OF subsequent
years. 1t was possessed by the Eng
lish, the French, the Germans, the
Oalvinists, until finally the French
obtained control and Rouen, with
Normandy, became one Of the most
prosperous possessions Of France. 1t
was in Rouen where William the
Conqueror died-the potent warrior
who grated Norman civilization on
England; 1t was there, too, where, II
we may believe history, Joan OF Arc
was burned at the stake after she
freed France from the clutches Of
England and had the French King
crowned at Rheims; and it is In Rou-
en- where rest the ashes Of the kingly
knight Grant, Richard Ceur de Lion,
of England. Rouen is rich in ecclesi-
astical buildings. First comes the
Cathedral of Notre Dame, one Of the
finest Gothic churches in the World.

Hilo, on the east coast Of the Island Of

It's trade 10 trifiing, but as a health and
pleasure resort IL is popular with both
natives and foreigners. It is the Paris
their Chicago. The great river OF lava
was slowly but surely descending on
the city. The then relgning Princess,
thinking that Pele was powerful after
all and was sending the lava In anger,
prayed to him three days and nights.
Then, at the very back door OF the city.
the lava stopped and now forms a gilt
tering gray wall behind the town. This
revived the faith of the islanders In
Pele. When Liliuokalani came into
power she decided to unseat II
and announced the fact through
out her kingdom. The Queen went
to the volcano of Kilauao. In whose
molten crater Pele was believed to
abide. 1t had been considered sinful
and provocative OF certain death to eat
ohelo berries without first offering some
to Pele. but as the Queen went she
picked and ate ohelo berries, meanwhile
singing song OF defiance to Pele. II
was dramatic, and may seem silly here,
but IL was the only way In which she
could, as she did, remove the last vestige
OF idolatry from the Hawaiian Islands.
She ventured into the very heart Of the
crater, stopping Only when the lava on
which she walked burned her shoes.
But Pele harmed her not and she de-
rided him. Since then all Hawaii has
laughed In his face, and eaten ohelo
berries when and where it pleased.
The native Hawaiians, with their
rich brown skins, their big liquid eyes,
and their supple, energetic limbs, are

An old NANCY cat, hunted out of
its abode no doubt by its owner, had
established itself In our street, on the
foOtpath of our house, where little
November sun once more warmed its
body, says Pierre Lott in "A Book of
Pity and Death" 1t is the custom
with certain people whose pity is a
selfish pity thus to send off as far
away as possible and "lose" the poor
animals they care neither to tend nor
to see suffer.
All day long it would sit piteously in
the corner OF window-sill, looking,
oh, so unhappy and so humble, an OBJ
ject Of disgust to those who passed,
menaced by children and by dogs, in
continual danger, and sickening from
hour to hour. Its poor head was
eaten up with disease, covered with
sores, and almost without fur, but its
eyes, which remained bright, seemed
to reflect profoundly.
1t must have felt in its frightful
bitterness the worst of all sufferings
for cat-that of not being able to
make its toilet, TO lick its fur, and to
comb itself with the care cats always
bestow on this operation.

to be no longer able to care for their
appearance because nothing can be
done before the final moldering away,
that has always appeared TO me the
lowest depth OF all the supreme
agony. Alas! for those poor old beg

A Rlacksmith,s Museum.

Henry b. Smith, OF Detroit, Mich.
has collected an interesting museum
Of local and general character. He
began life as a blacksmith at Muir
freesboro, Tenn, and settled in De-
troit in 1863. He worked hard for a
little more than a bare living, and
still found time and means to gather
the things which interested him, and
which now form valuable collection.
AS he himself explains 1t, he always
watched the secondhand stores of
Detroit and other cities very care
fully. Whenever he heard of an auc-
ton sale Of the effects Of an old OF
prominent citizen he made it point
to be on hand. That was the source
from which many valuable relics were
obtained, including those of General
Cass and the Campau family. For
many years past he picked up every
thing OF historic interest which
came within his reach. He has en-
bodied in his museum the Bella Hub
bard collection of coins, that OF Her
bert Bowen. the Young collections,
and many others Of equal note. He
also picked up many valuable odds
and ends at New York auction sales.
His collection includes very COM
plete assortment of the relics col
lected by General Lewis Cass. In Ii
are old newspapers dating back to
1899, an ancient warming-pan, old
brass andirons, tall brass candlesticks,
candlestick trays or walters, and pom
deIous snuffers. From the Abbott
homestead he has andirons, trays,
shutters, candlesticks and tongs,
bought from the Jew dealers after
they had been sold at auction, and
from the old Campau home the old
iron coffee mill, candle molds, flat
irons, three tin and two pottery tea
pots, sugar bowl and cream pitcher.
A copper stew kettle OF unique de-
sign was made in England in 1850,
and small hair trunk was owned by
Mrs. John E. Warren in 1850, and
given to Miss S. M. Warren, Detroit
descendant, in 1852. There is brass
tea kettle that once belonged to
George Washington, and another
that was used by Mrs. James X.
Polk, and unique brass candlestick
that was used by Sir William John
ston. There is map OF the city OF
London in 1907. one of Detroit in
1886, one of Washington in 1850, val.
liable old steel portraits of Washing
ton, General Harrison, grandfather
of the President; Daniel Webster,
Edward Everett and Henry Clay.
These were executed many years age
and are very rare. Mr.. Smiths mu-
scum includes an almost innumerable
collection Of relics of the wars OF the
Revolution, 1912, and the Rebellion.
There are four trees which contain
cannon balls and grape shot, a very
ancient and curious English bar shot,
no less than sixty-four different styles
OF pistols, ranging in age from the
invention OF such weapons down &c
the present time, one being twelve
chambered old French blunderbuss,
the saber carried by General John
Morgan during his famous raid, a
banjo made from an old pie pan and
pieces OF wood by Union soldier in

be the key of Libby Prison itself.
