 SOME OBJECT LESSONS.

An interesting experiment was made at Marblehead, Massachusetts, the
 other day, when the pupils of the public
 schools were given q holiday In order
 that they might attend the Republican convention which nominated General
 William Cossswell for congress. The | gallery of the hall where the politicians
 met was filled With bright-faced boys
 and girls" and an admirins Boston
 newspaper thinks that "it was an ir-
 structive thing for the growing citizens of the republic to get direct object | lesson in one of the processes toward civil government" It is probable that
 the children liked it nucl. better than school. 4 teacher in anothe- city tried
 similar experiment some months ago
 by taking his pupils to a meeting of the common council in order to give them
 "a direct object-iesson in one of the
 processes toward civil government" but the members soon began calling each other liars and making threats of violence, so that the teacher felt con- strained to hurry the children out of the room in order to save their morals.
 Perhaps some teacher in this city who wants to give his dear pupils an object lesson in lone of the processes" will take them some fine day or evening to see the process of naturalization. They will see foreign gentlemen brought into court by friends who are interested in what the Register finely calls the prog ress of the people and the development of the nation. They will have with them tickets from ward committees, which are as good as money. Those who are candidates for citizenship will stand up and swear to all that is re- quired. Especially will they swear that they are attached to the principles of the Constitution of the United States" Nobody embarrasses the candidates by asking them what those principles are, or how they know that they are at- tached to them. It is sufficient if they can do the necessary swearing and have the tickets The whole perform ance is quite an object-lesson.

4 SOCIETY NOTE.

Let us turn for moment from the tariff and the beneficial effects of Broth CT Pigott's brains on Canada to some- thing that is of real interest and inn portance. Society in New Haven is be- ginning to prick up its ears and soon it will be in full blast. Take notice that we did not yield to the temptation suggest ed by the word Tears" and say bray. We said blast" The great difficulty this winter, as in other winters, will be to distinguish Society from that which is not Society. The Blue Book isn't much help, and the directory doesn't discriminate. Of course there are a few people here who are in Society any winter and every winter, and they don't have to advertise the fact in any other way than by sending notices of their performances to the daily papers, or get ting somebody else to do it. But there are many who do not know exactly where they are. They do know, how ever, where they would like to be, and they know that they would like to know some sure way of letting themselves and other people know that they are in Society. We have much sympathy with such people. We know that their aim is high and that they seek that which is best. They feel that ic they can know that they are in Society they can be happy here and be ;n line for promotion hereafter. They reason logically that it is but a step from the top-notch of earth to the first step in heaven. and that close communion with the select here is a fine preparation for commu- nion with the elect over there. This feeling and this reasoning are what make the struggle to get into Society so sharp, and the facts on which the feeling and reasoning arc based are what make Society such little heaven below.
 But how can those who do not really make Society know whether they are in it this winter?Easily. All they have to do is to put more stamps than are required by law on their letters. The best people in England are doing this The idea is, we suppose, that. putting more stamps on a letter than are needed shows that the one who does it is above such con- alterations as affect common people, and being above such considerations is all right. We haven't heard how many extra stamps are needed to show that one ia in Society, but 1t is well to be on the safe side in such matters There fore we should say that all the avail able space on the envelope should be covered with stamps. This will leave no

 bullets. and found themselves alive and
 unhurt before the wicket-gate. One
 might have expected that the man who
 threw the governor and his attendants from the cliff would have shot them down like dogs. Instead. the fire from the fort suddenly ceased, the wicket doors swung open, and the lord of Kus- sak and Il score of his warriors stood ln the entrance and welcomed the men who had thus miraculously reached the gate. The two chiefs gravely saluted
 "Return," said the lord of Kussak, "you are safe. By God and his prophet, I swear 1t. You are too brave a man to be slaughtered like a sheep. I and my brethren know how to respect a hero like you" The two gallant sol diers then shook hands and the Sikh returned unharmed.
 The chance of taking the fort seemed more remote than ever, but Runjeet knew that If he did not take 1t his pres- tige would be greatly shaken. Accord ingly he offered terms. If the lord Kussak would surrender the fort he should receive grant of fifteen vil- lages for his life and seven villages should be settled on his descendants. The lord of Kussak at last felt that he would be obliged to accept these terms. The water in the tanks was almost gone. The rains were late. and had failed to fill them when most needed. Accordingly. after some five months of siege, 1t was agreed that the fort should be surrendered. The terms were settled, and next day the garrison were to march out. That very evening the monsoon broke. The long-looked-f rains descended in torrents. and by morning the tanks had been washed clean. and were overflowing with clear water. His men implored the lord of kussak to reconsider his agreement of the day before. They had water enough to last them another six months and why should they yield? The lord of Kussak refused. His word was pledged, and his honor forbade him to break faith. Accordingly the lord of Kussak gave up the fort, and forfeited for point of honor all that he val ued most in the world-became from an chieftain with a pedigree of two thousand years, a pensioner to the Sikh.-London Spectator.

Colonel Duller of the Belgian Engin- eers has discovered an easy and econ- omical method of doing away with London smoke. The smoke enters a chimney shaped like the letter N; at the bottom of the left-hand leg it is met by small jet of steam. which saturates the smoke and accelerates the draught; at the top of the leg spray of water drives down the soot and noxious prod ucts. allowing only almost pure vapor to escape up the last leg. Half the acids end ninety-four per cent of the soot are thus removed; they are sent down into the sewers, where they act as dis infectants. The system can be applied to a factory for about $25o and to a single dwelling house for SIP or $15.
