The Brave Captain.

1t was in the streets of Freder-
icksburg, as the army was thrown
across to attack Lee in his impreg-
nable position. A shell had ex-
ploded at the right of an advancing
regiment. Confusion followed. a
crptain sprang out, with drawn
sword and sought to rally the men
of his company. He was grand
looking man, tall and knightly, and
he had voice of lion. "Into line,
men-into linel" he kept shouting.
"Fall in, Company AL The old Sec
ond wants you to lead the wayr'
His words were heard away down
in the supporting column, and men
who could not see him for the dust
and smoke, cheered him. Some
thing passed his face like flash OF
lightning streak of flame and
smoke. The captains arms went
up, and he sank down in heap.
Two of his men extended their
hands, and he struggled to his feet,
and said, "lead me to the rear, am
stone blind" His eyes were wide
open, but sightIess. Shell or shot
had passed SO close to his face that
he would never see again.

It is an odd use of money, curious

common impulse than individuals

Links in the Chain.

The blasts that drove the storm
clouds across the heavens shook the
oak, and the acorn cup, loosenod
from its fruit. fell on the pathway.
y cloud bursts; rain drop filed
the acorn cup.
A robin, wearied by the sultry
heat of an autumn day, and troubled
by the fury of the storm, hoped on
the path when all was calm, and
drank of the rain drop. Refreshed
and gladdened, he flew to his ac-
customed place in the ivy that over
hung the poets window, and there
he trilIed his sweetest, happiest
notes.
The poet heard, and rising from
his revcrie, wrote chant of grace
full rejoicing. The chant went forth
into the world, and entered the
house of sorrow, and uttered its
heart stirring accents by the couch
of sickness. The sorrowful were
comfortcd, the sick were cheered.
Many voices praised the poet. He
said, "The chant was inspired by
the robins song"

said the robin.

earth had not the acorn cup re-
ceived me-" said the rain-drop.

you, but for the angry blast" said
the acorn cup.
And SO they that were comforted
praised the blast; but the blast re-
piled:
"Praise Him at whose word the
stormy wind ariseth, and who from
darkness can bring light, making
His mercies oftentimes to pass
through unseen, unknown and un-
suspected channels, and bringing in
due time, by His own way, the
grateful chant from the angry storm

Test of Culture.

A distinguished man remarked not
long ago that there is no surer test
of culture than the way in which
one handles book. ''All those who
have any experience of the deeper
life," he said, think of books almost
as human beings. Even a book
which is not worth much in itself is
still treated by them with respect,
since it wears the outward guise of
what they have learned to consider
their best friends" He went on to
condemn the senseless and offensive
manner in which choir singers often
abuse their hy4nnbooks, bending
them backward until the covers meet
and holding them thus throughout
an entire hymn. This vandalism is
not, alas confined to the class men.

How to clean a lamp Cnlmney.

Every old bachelor knows how to
clean a lamp chimney. He never
bothers with channels leather or any
thing of the kind, but just holds the
glass chimney in the steam from a
kettle until sufficient moisture has
collected, when he wipes it out with
an old handkerchief, or, better stin,
an old kid glove. This is the easiest
way imaginable for making an old
chimney shine like crystal. and il
is far more effective than the ordi-
nary methods sworn to by experts
who have graduated in the kitchen

Battlfng With the World.


Many q young girl who has been
brought up with the idea that her
parents money would carry her
through this life on the top wave,
have discovered that riches take to
themselves wings, and that the hand
that had never known more arduous
labor than the stitches in a bit of
fancy work must take up something
that would bring bread and butter
into the cupboard where cake was
formerly wont to abound

fully and sensibly than the sister
who has been only moderately well

are phases even in such misfortune
that are both helpful and instruc-

A pretty young woman of our ac-
qnaintance whose early. life was
passed amid a profusion of earthly
Iuxuries found, just at that period
when she anticipated much from her
debut in society, that some unfortu-
nate speculations of her fathers ne
cessitated a change in their mode of
living and urged her to look about
for something to do.
This something she found, and
did it thoroughly well, too, and
though her career of work has been
short owing to marriage stepping in
and giving her long vacation, she
still has learned in that brief period,
lessons that she never could have
gained in any other way. Quoting
her own words she said: at was
very hard at first to go out into the
world, especially whom my girl
friends would come to me and say:
"You poor, dear thing, how perfectly
dreadful it is for you to actually
work for your living We never
could do it, that is certain" But

advantage the lessons taught by that
very severe disciplinarian-actual

Interest LIN hygiene.

Interest in the study of hygiene
seems to be on the increase. Colleges
which have heretofore given no
special courses on this subject are
now devoting more attention to it.
The University of Durham, England,
has established two new degrees
which it confers, B. by. and D. Hy.,
which stand for bachelor and doctor
of hygiene respectively.
