Postmaster Robert Murray of War

Postmaster Robert Murray of War
rensburgh was considerably startled
when unlocking the Lake George mail
bag one night last week, full grown
maltese cat jumped out upon the ia
ble In his four years experience as
postmaster he had never let the cat
out of the bag before. There was no
mark or tag on the animal to deter
mine where it came from or to whom
it was going. No postage stamps were
attached, and he came to the conclu-
sion that being alive it's circulation
might possibly entitle it to admission
as second class matter. Captain M.
N. Dickinson, whose eighteen years
experience as postmaster makes his
advice valuable, was asked about 1t,
but only responded "Rats!" What to
do with his acquisition Postmaster
Murray did not really know Any
other article not addressed he would
have marked "dead" and sent to the
dead letter office in Washington, but
a live cat could hardly be marked
"dead." He. finally decided to keep
the cat, as he was a beautiful speci-
men, and when the following day
Postmaster @. S.Wood of Lake George
sent word to have tabby returned,
Mr.. Murray refused to give her up.
The cat had crawled into the open
mail bag in the Lake George post-of-
flee and taken the trip voluntarily.
Mr.. Wood did not know where she
was until the mail carrier inquired the
next day .-SentineL.

TRUE FRIENDSHIP.

Of all felicities, the most charming
is that of firm and gentle friendship.
1t sweetens all our cares, dlspels our
sorrows, and counsels us in all ex-
tremities. Nay, if there were no other
comfort in it than the bare exercise
of SO generous a virtue, even for THAT
single reason a man would not be
without it, Some people make 1t
question whether it is the greater de-
light,-the enjoyment Of an Old friend
ship Or the acquiring OF new one;
but it is in the preparing of friend
ship and in the possession of it as 1t IS
with a husbandman in sowing and
reaping. His delight is the hope OF
his labor in the one case, and the fru1t
of it in the other. My conversation
lies among my books, but yet in the
letters of friend, methinks, L have
his company; and, when l answer
them, do not only write, but speak.
And, in effect, friend is an eye, a
heart, a tongue, hand, at all dis
tances. True friends are the whole
world to one another; and he that is
a friend to himself is also friend to
mankind. Even in my very studies
the greatest delight take in what 1
learn is the teaching of it to others;
for there is no relish, methinks in the
possessing of anything without
partner. Nay, if wisdom itself were
offered me upon condition only of
keeping it to myself, L should undoubt-
eddy refuse it.

A French writer attempts to trace
table utensils most Of them Of recent
introduction to their origin. The
Romans took their meals upon very
low touches; and it was not until
about the time of Charlemagne that
stand was used, around which guests
were seated on cushions, while the
table made its appearance in the Mid
die Ages, and with it camo benches
with backs. The Greeks and Romans
ate from kind of porringer; yet dur
ing a portion Of the Middle Ages slices
of bread, cut round, took the place OF
plates. The spoon is very ancient,
and many fine specimens are in exist
ence that were used by the Egyptians
in the seventeenth century B. @. The
knife, though very old, had not come
into common use as table utensil in
the tenth century. The fork was alb
solutely unknown to the Greeks and
Romans, appeared only as curiosity
in the Middle Ages and was first used
upon the table by Henry III. Drink
cups-in Middle Ages made from met
al, more or less precious naturally
date from the remotest antiquity.

Boys who are fortunate enough to

The country of all others is the place
of all others to be born in. The asso-
citation of youth, of home, of school,
winter, of the farm, work and play
mixed together in a delightful tangle
are never rooted out, but grow deep
er into the character and become
deeper to the being while life passes
and the revolving years hold out

education to have been born and

ing from books ever can. That is a
resource that stands by. 1t is some
thing to feed upon. And if the boy
as a man engages in a business or pro-
fession he has a stock of health and a
good sound constitution to draw upon
that will be sure to carry him trium-
pbantly through when the city boys
are giving away along the road. Moral
ly and physically he has the best of

THE WORLDS MOST USEFUL RIVER.

The Nile, probably is the most won
derful river in the world. 1t has made
Egypt possible by turning an arid
wilderness into the richest land in the
world. Tt has provided at the same
time an admirable commercial high
way, and made easy the transporta-
ton of building materials. The an
cient Egyptians were thus enabled to
utilize the granite of Assuan for the
splendid structure of hundred gated
Thebes and of Memphis, and even for
those of Tanis, on the Mediterranean
coast. At time when the people of
the British Isles were clad in the skins
of wild beasts, and offered human
sacrifices upon the stone affairs of the
Druids, Egypt was the centre of
rich and refined civilization. Most of
this development of Egypt was due to
the Nile, which not only watered and
fertilized the soil annually, but was
and is one of the greatest and best
natural highways in the world. From
the beginning Of the winter to the end
of spring-that is, while the Nile is
navigable = the north wind blows
steadily up stream with sufficient
force to- drive sailing boats against
the current at fair pace; while on
the other hand, the current is strong
enough to carry boat without sails
down against the wind, except when
it blows a gale. This is why ancient
Egypt did not need steam-powern nor
electric motors for the immense COM
the barges carrying building material
for hundreds of miles.

SHALL A WOMAN TELL HER AGEy

One burden falls to the lot of the
single woman which is more keenly
felt in society than elsewhere. Trivl-
al and foolish as it may seem, few are
aware of it's extent and reality, and
the most sensible and successful Wom-
en- are sometimes it's victims. Public
sentiment, especially in cities and un-
provincial towns, has outgroWn, to
considerable extent, the ungallant
habit of considering woman respon-
sible for her age. But there still exist
plenty Of men and women who have
a ready word Of scorn or reproach Tor
the unmarried single woman whose
youth has passed. On account OF this
sentiment many woman are sensitive,
and not without reason, to inquiries
about age. They refrain from allu-
sions which might lead to the discOv-
cry of a secret, only because the Gu
rious and rude make such age mat
ter of ridiclue The only remedy for
this discomfort is in the cultivation of
a different public sentiment. A wom-
an ought to be as willing to tell her
age as to tell her name or the name
of the town she lives in. With critl-
cal ears waiting to hear and speak
disagreeable comments, no one can
blame her for keeping silent about a
purely personal matter. No son or
daughter of a true mother or a chival-
rous father ever makes the subject of
age, or any other that might cause
pain or ANNOYANCE, a matter of CON
versatiOn.

There are many who look with dread
upon the approach of old age. They
grieve deeply over their departing
youth and feel that each passing day
is robbing them of something which
can never be replaced or compensat-
ed for in this world. They look al
most with envy upon the sweet young
faces around them, and long even
more eagerly to retain the emotion
and the hopes of youth. But it can
not stay with us; like "bloom on the
grave, the down on the peach" once
brushed away it can never again re-
turn. How much better to SO en-
ploy the time that when the evanes-
cent pleasures of early life have pass
ed away, our minds will be filled with
the treasures bought by wise cultiva-
ton and experience, suitable for that
state upon which we must surely en-
ter if we continue to exist, than to
spend it in the vain pursuit of those
feeting enjoyments which will at the
last entirely elude the grasp, leaving
nothing but unavailing lamentation
and regret.
