TIE SCISSORS HARlT.
a Curious Story T'ld of Woman OF
Wonderful Persistency.

"bhheElHl trathltnVy'
Every body knows the story of the
woman who having been thrown into
the sea to force her to stop saying
scissors" continued TIC say it until the
water choked her. and she could no
longer speak, when, sinking, she held
up her first and second fingers, open
ing and shutting them to simulate a
pair of scissors, and so drowned.
1t is not an uncommon thing among
school girls when one of their number
persistently asserts fact or opinion at
variance with the others, to whisper
the word scissors, which is usually a
signal for a good-natured withdrawal
of opposition.
If 1t is understood that one intends
to die saying scissors of course kind
friends will not hasten the sad event
by provoking scissors attack which
may prove fatal.
We all know few young girls who
are subject to occasional scissors spells,
when all the wisdom of the ages and
sagcs could avail naught against an ex-
pressed opinion. These attacks are al
ways serous-even much more serious
to the patient than to those who have
to bear with her, which is saving a
good deal, for when the affection be-
comes chronic, as it sometimes Goes
from neglect of the occasional spell, il
is matter far more damaging to her
normal constitution las we'll as to the
happiness of her friends) than many
diseases of which she might be cured
by physic or change of air
Scissors attacks are of various kinds
differing in manner of expression, but
always to be recognized by a certain
sharpness of edge to be caught in the
speech, but more particularly by an in.
controvcrtiblc tnality of tone.
The scissors patient always ends hei
sentence with the falling infection
and when occasionally one of her com
panions makes statement in a rather
assured tone, she turns upon her, as il
she were poaching upon her preserves
with an exclamation so sudden and
fierce that one can really fancy he sees
pair of long keen-edged shears fly
open, ready to come down upon any
| point of her assertion, and to cut il
mercilessly to pieces, as indeed it gen
orally does. Sometimes it ships it of
moderately, with a show of indulgence,
at either end, letting it continue to live
substant tally, but more often with {
Not at all" or "You are mistaken
it is this way" it chops it from the
middle right and left.
The object of this short article is t.
warn good, sweet-tempered girl
against the dangers OF the scissors
habit People in general don't like t,
be contradicted; and even when one i
very sure of thing, it is a womanl,
charm to be able to state it in modes
way, as an opinion rather than con
viction. An amiably expressed opinion
is really more convincing, as we'll a
more winning, than a dogmatic asser
ton thrown at ones head. 1t may b
manly on occasion to strike from tn
shoulder; it is seldom gentlemanly

RELIGIOUS AND EDUCATIONAL.

At a recent meeting of the trustees
of Columbia college a new chair was esr
tablished in the department of zoology,
and Prof. E. b. Wilson, formerly of
Rryn Mawr college, was chosen to oc.
cupy it.
The pioneer of Protestant missions
in Mexico was Miss Rankin. She had
a g"ls' school, and sent out people who
distributed Bibles even at the risk OF
their lives, Since 1872 evangelical de-
nominations have started missions, all
from the United States.
AT this beginning of this century
there were only $50 missionaries. Now
there are %, 600 missionaries and native
helpers and evangelists At the begin
ming Of this century there We're only
$4,000 heather converts. Now there
are 100000 converts from heathen-
dom.
Rev Dr. Newton Sprague and Hon.
Marriott Clarke, who were associates
in Middlebury college, from which they
graduated over seventy years ago, are
near neighbours in the same Vermont
village, and both remarkably vigorous
for their years--the one 90 and the 9TH
er 90.
Spain is the most illiterate of the
Latin-speal1ing races, the percentage
of those unable to read being 50, In
Hungary the illterates number 4S per
cent; in Austria, 80 per cent, and in
Ireland, 81 per cent In India only H.
600, 900 out of $50, 100000 can read and
write.
Christian Endeavor societies in the
Reformed church in America raised for
missions, from February to October,
1893, IS, 073 20. There are SAG societies
in the denomination, but the fifty-sev-
en- societies in the denominations Chris
tan Endeavor Missionary League con-
tributed almost one-half this sum, or
81, 1924.
AT the opening of the century there
were only A translations of the entire
Bible in existence; to-day there are 30
entire translations, $50 partial ones,
and 800 in all; 500, 900, 900 of the human
race now have the opportunity OF
studying the Bible in regions which
knew almost nothing of it before the
recent century began.
-Oftentimes the hindrances that lie
in the path of duty may be compared
to the toll gates upon our turnpike
roads; they are kept shut till we are
just upon them, and then fly open, as
it were, of themselves. And that is
time enough. Ii they had been open a

The number of students at the Uni.

WITH THE MINDS EYE.

The rasping sound OF steel on steel;
A score OF footste ps on the stair;
The clink and whir OF rod and wheel,
The voice Of labor everywhere
Along the wharf the waters lift
sluggish current dull and brown;
With low black hulls that slowly drift
Beyond the smofe-encircled town
But fairer scenes before me rise
The sunny slope, the brooklet clear;
Or where the water-lily lies
In silver on the silent mere;
Where rounded submits, clothed with green
Are sweet with summers passing shower;
And ripping rivers flow between
Wide fields aglow with bud and flower
Oh forest glade oh wind-swept hill
At morn 80 fresh at eve so fair,
Whose lightest recollection still
Has power TO lessen daily care.
Though life in narrower groove DO cast,
Though days be dark, and skies be gray;
The memory OF the happier past,
Nor greed nor power can snatch away.

SASHES AND BELTS.


They Are Necessities to the Fashionable
Summer Wardrobe.
The sash, that prctticst and most
youthful of ornaments, is returning
with the spring. 1t is an almost indis-
pensable accessory of summer dress
The flimsy, fluffy fabrics which we can
not make to fit tight, and would not II
we could, can only be prettily subdued
into something like conformity to the
figure by combining with belt or sash.
Last wear the wide belt, which almost
reScmblcd n peasant waist served to
hold in check the unruly folds OF sum-
mer gowns This season the wide be 1t
has been cut in two, and the sections
are set one above the other and two or
three inches apart, the rosettes being
placed on nearly opposite sides.
Sometimes these two sections are
very narrow, becoming mere velvet
bands of half an inch in width.
At present the big, soft bow of surah
or India silk is preferred for all such
garments, But before very long we
may expect to see the large MORE
bows, which have recently disputed the
rights of any place in life with the
chins of the elite, removed to the waist
where they belong.
1t will be entirely in keeping with
the craze for MORE and the combina-
ton of black and white to see white

The Cargo of the Poeasset.

Editor Morning News In your paper
dated May %, a statement was made in
regard to the loading and the carrying of
cotton cargo of the British steamship
Pocasset, Blyth, master.
On good authority, a different story
can be told as to the cargo which was
sto we'd by non-union men and uuskilled
laborers. But since the public is not
supposed to know the labor which is re-
quired to properly and skillfully load
cotton, it should be but just to give the
real facts about the above mentioned
cargo.
Your paper states that the steamer had
taken, or rather had carried $4,000 pounds
Of cotton more than on her former trip.
You publish that 1883 bales cotton were
cleared by her, and it is naturally sup
posed by-every body not interested in the
cotton business, that this number Of
bales was carried by and slowed into
this POcasset, whereas she only carried,
nom this port 6,391 bales under deck, 1876
bales on deck, for which extra insurance
had to be paid by the master, and 240
bales which bills of lading were signed by
the1naster. and he, of course, had to look
out for the forwarding, etc-were for
warded via New DIRK
The average weight of the cotton per
balewas ass pounds and a fraction and
instead of her carrying 50,i54 pounds
more than on her previous trip, she car
rted 2Oo,Ss0 pounds less under deck, Than
Stated in your paper. The public should
be informed of these facts. 7. A. G.

NEGRO EQUALITY A MYTH.
London Editors Point Out the Erro
of War Time Republicans,

LONDON Editors Point Out the Error
Of War Time Republicans.
London, June 2.-The Economist, com
menting on the campaign of Ida Wells
against the lynching of negroes in the
southern states of America, says: ''The
equality of the races does not
exist. The whites who granted
the suffrage to the negro were
guilty of grave otfense against republic
canlsm as system assuring the moral
and intellectual competence of a citizen.
There is nothing to be done
except to tolerate the negro as
subordinate citizen until he becomes
civilized, which he may never be. We do
not ask good Americans to interfere in
behalf of the negro, but we do ask our
own countrymen, who cannot be good re-
publicans in the midst of lynch law"
The Spectator SAYS: "The action of the
north after the war made the condition
of the negro infinitely worse than if they
had adopted a wiser and more unselfish
policy. 1t is terrible example
of mischief due to vindictive and
short-sighted partisanship. 1t is i'm
possible to maintain a system under
which despised and ignorant race is en-
couraged TO play the despot over q race of
higher political intelligence"
