A Telephone Newspaper.

The London Standards Vienna cor
respondent tells US of the very newest
thing in news-a Bellamy idea trans
lated into fact. The first so-called "tele-
phonic newspaper" appeared in Pesth
Yesterday, In other words, the latest
items of news-political, local, CONNER
cial, sporting and other-are sent out
from a central office by telephone to the
subscribers, who for this intelligence pay
the very modest sum of 70 cents month.
This novel undertaking comprises at its
central office two departments-a regular
editorial office, which receives the tele-
graphic and oral messages and works
them up into leaders or paragraphs, and
special telephone publishing depart
ment, where experienced speakers, each
possessing a soft but distinct voice, trans
nit through the instruments the contents
of the manuscript delivered from hour to
hour by the first department.
There are two languages used, German
and Hungarian. The news includes
stock exchange quotations and financial
articles, reports of theatrical performan-
ces, book reviews and paragraphs on all
the miscellaneous topics found in daily
newspaper. The subscribers who receive
the news have square wooden tablet be-
fore them, from which are suspended two
tubes long enough to reach their ears
when they are sitting in an easy chair or
at writing desk, or even when lying in
bed. The service commences at O'Clock
in the morning and lasts until 9 in the
evening. This novelty has SO far been
very well received in the Hungarian

Letters of Coincidence.

To write letter OF congratulation on q
happy event in the history of friend is
a comparatively easy task. Words of
cheer and telictation tall trippingly from
the pen as from the tongue. The letter of
coincidence requires more care, more deli
cacy, a greater comprehension a fuller
recognition of the friends character and
environment. Many people hesitate TO
write their thought of sympathy to one
who is suffering under the 1irst surprise
and bewildering shock OF deep bereave-
ment. The impulse is strong to put forth
a hand in the dark and give the warm
clasp which means Il am sorry" 81
grieve in your grief" Il would help YOU
if l could" but quick upon its heels tread
the suggestion of caution. 81 do not
know her well enough to intrude," whis-
perS an instructive refinement of pity
My rude thrusting in of myself would
only tear open the wound afresh. -
should [ attempt to speak words of con-
ISOLATION they would sound like platitudes,
appear conventional or perfunctory."
The arguments are often so reasonable in
their appeal to common sense that the
original tender impulse is resolutely
crushed back; one prays for ones friend
but does not directly address her.
In most cases the silence is a mistake
Occasionally it is better than speech. I'VE
grant, particularly when those of whom
we think are mere acquaintance, not
even in the outer circle as yet of friend
ship, or when the sufferers are specially
shy of manner and reticent of nature.
Usually, however, the letter of condo
lence, if short, earnest and sincere is an
olive branch of promise borne as by
very messenger dove of peace over the
wild whirling waste of snow. The sim
pier it is the surer its errand of mercy.
The sooner it is sent the more speedily its
tender balm is laid on the aching heart.
on the whole, it is always very nearly
safe to trust to the early friendly impulse
and to disregard the later OBTAINING hand
of caution.-Harper's Bazaar.

GLADSTONE
Some Account of the Premier's Health
and Habits.

Some Account of the Premier's Health
and Habits.
Gladstone's extraordinary regularity is
even carried to the number of hours he
remains in bed. Except when he is I'M
well, which is very rarely, he consist
emily sleeps eight hours. He has con-
stantly slept eight hours for the past
thirteen years. Mr.. Gladstone, however,
did not always adhere to this rule. 1t was
on Sir Andrew Clarke's advice, when his
health broke down, in 1880, that he re-
manned in bed as long as eight hours. The
Premier likes to retire about midnight,
never later than 1890, and sleeps with
seldom an interruption until his eight
hours have expired. This is invariably
his habit, whether in town, in the coun-
try or abroad. His diet, too, is regular
and severely plain. Breakfast with him
is small meal, cup OF tea, a few slices
of bread, an egg or tongue. He lunches
in the middle OF the day, and has a cup of
tea or slice of bread at D o'clock, not
from necessity, but from choice. Dinner
with him is the chief meal. Mr. Glad
stone has as little belief in fancy dishes
as in French cooking. His favorite
'solid' is a cut from the Joint, roast beef
being with him an especial favorite
The Premier does not like made-up
dishes, except when he is sure what they
are made of. Neither is he by any means
partial to condiments. He never uses
mustard, and has a perfect adherence
of vinegar and oils. Salt and pepper.
however, do not come under this rule.
Mr.. Gladstone Is not prejudiced against
sweets after dinner, although he does not
patronlze them always. He is particu-
larly partial to rice pudding. The q. O.
MS wine list is neither extensive nor
extravagant. He commences with a
glass or two of claret or champagne, and
winds up with a glass of port. These are
his favorite wines for dinner, and if the
Premier consulted his own tastes. he
would seldom indulge in any other
liquor. Until quite recently he was very
fond of bitter beer, and he likes it still,
only it has a tendency to give him lum-
bago. If Mr.. Gladstone's menu ever
varies, it is not from choice, but merely a
disposition on his part not to displease
his hostess. The above may be taken as
more the manner in which Mr.. Glad
stone lives when in the bosom of his
family than when he is the guest of a
triend.-W estminster Gazette.

How beautiful to live as thou dist livel
How beautiful to die as thou didst die
In moonlight of the night, without sigh,
AT rest'in all the best that love could give!
How excellent to bear into old age
The poets ardor and the heart of youth
To keep to the last sleep the vow OF truth
And leave 10 lands that grieve a glowing page!
How glorious to feel the spirits power
Cnbroken by the near approach of death,
To breathe blessed prophecies with falling
breath,
Soul-bound to beauty in that latest hour!
How sweet to greet, in final kinship owned,
The master-spirit to thy dream so dear
At last from his immortal lips to hear
The dire for lmogen and thee intoned!
How beautiful to live as thou didst livei
How beautiful to die as thou didst die
In moonlight of the night, without a sigh,
At rest in all the best that love could givei

During the hot hours of midday, when
all actual labor is suspended in the viii
lage, the natives, urged by vanity and
national pride, devote great deal of time
to the arrangement of their edd but elab-
crate toilets. Hair-dressing is one of the
principal obligations, and constitutes one
of the numerous domestic duties allotted
to the fair" sex. On a reed mat spread
out in some shady corner the woman sits
down, and the man upon whom the op-
Grafton is to be performed reclineS at full
length, resting his head in her lap. She
begins at once to unplait his hair, and
soon has it all rayeled, and then, with
coarse wooden instrument milling
the head of a child's toy rake, she combs
it thoroughly until it is clear of all en-
tanglements, and stands out all over the
head in thick, bushy mass six or seven
inches deep. 1t Is now generously creased
with oil from the palm nut. The woman
then parts it Oft into sections, and very
soon the coarse bunch of hair, cleverly
manipulated by her nimble fingers, is
woven down closely to the head.
They display good deal of ingenuity
! in forming variety of designs. Some
times series of little plated strands,
like rat tails, hang in a fringe all around
the head. Often solid plaits of hair
about the size OF goats horn are made
to stand out from the head in different
Styles. Two Oh IHeSe Will appear SprOut-
ing from the top of the head, or one will

ending in two solid plaits, which curl
over each cheek like sleeps horns. Both
men and women have their hair treated
in the same way.
The plating operation is also extended
to the mans beard. The mustache is re-
moved, and so are the eyebrows, with a
razor, which is small cheese-cutter
blade, with long. slender handle. This
is used somewhat as we hold pen, and
the stubbiy hair is really chiseed off the
face, no small amount of it being dragged
out by the roots. Tribal custom compels
its removal, and the African is so insens-
IDLE to pain that the means employed do

When one is loved and loves, and alls con-

With cheek to cheek and throbbing heart to

That sweet, sad-eyed divinity thou art,
Which brings US Peace for regent of the
breast,
While friends and kin mistakenly protest
Against our choosing, till the salt tears start;
Which teaches us to play a sunny part.
And smile at grief when grief is bitterest.
Seen through thy glass each dun cloud parts
in twain
And shows the blue sky of a future year;
Content we have of thee when fearful eyes
Look sad farewells endurance tor each pain.
Love quick would langulsh, shouldst thou
disappear;
Art thou love itself in other guise?

Murray lifted his voice in the Potter
Church at Good Luck. We have quail

For the nominal CalvinIst it goes very
far, yet it falls far behind Universallsm
in its complete development. DIR. Pat
