And of the nearnesS Of her arm.

The sleigh-bellS chime and were away
Across the crisp and glittering snow,
Leaving behind the city street,
Its g;lrish glare and noise, we go
Into the darkness still and sweet:
And here and there household glean
Fits by us in flying dream.
How speed the horses gaily driven,
The sweet bells clatter silvery mirth
And every star is white in heaven
And every field is white on earth.
How dark the brightness seems. how

And. somehow, when l try to speak.
My words are kisses on her cheek.

A sleigh ride with the girl 1 love.

THE CANARY BIRD.
The Care He Should Receive and the
Food He Should be Given.

In so many homes there are neglect
ed unhappy canary birds, who have
won the displeasure of their owners
because they did not sing. Now this
fault lies in the birds keeper rather
than in the feathered pet itself, for
with proper care and proper food n
canary will reward the kindness by
singing blithely all the day long.
The cage should be hung in Il light,
cheerful place protected from draughts
and in not too great blaze of sun
shine or rush of warm air. The cage
should be cleaned every day, and If
it is possible second one should be
on hand into which the bird could be
put during the housekeeping process,
put out by the upheaval of their GUS
tomary lodgings.
A bath should be offered to the bird
every day, but if, after fifteen minutes,
it does not see fit to wash itself. re-
move the tub. Never put cold water
into the tub, but fill it half full of
lukewarm water If you desire the
birds health. Cover the bottom Of the
cage with fine sand. Have two perches,
a swing and couple of wooden balls
attached by string from the roof
for his amusement. Be sure and COW
err the cage at night, as many birds
have exhausted their vocal powers
by being deluded into the idea that
gaslight was daylight and thus sing
ing too much.
For Il steady diet nothing is better
than pure bird seed. Fill the cups
fresh every day, being sure that the
water is cool and refreshing. In add
ton to the seed give the bird Bit
of the hard yolk of an egg every day
| Vary his diet with bits of lettuce OF
celery and Jumps of sugar. Place q
cutie bone between the wires an6
once in a while as a rare luxury al
apple core.
With such attentions as these a bird
if well, will be happy and contente6
and will prove his joy by singing his
sweetest and best for the edificat ioI
| of his keepers.

WILL. BIZ. A DEBUTANTE.

The historic interest. national pride
and patriotic affection that endearS
the name Grant to American people
would alone suffice TO insure an ia
usually brilliant entree in the social
world for a young woman of even less
personal charm than Miss Julia Dent
Grant, the lovely daughter of Col. and
Mrs. Frederick d. Grant. Miss Grant,
however is the happy posSeSsOr of the
individual attractions and accomplish
mentS that will enable her to maintain
with easy grace the place in society
that the prestige of her name will in
sure to her when she makes her de-
but. She is Of the brunette type, of
me,uum height and of graceful bear
ing. Her long residence abroad en-
abled her to pursue her linguistic and
musicaE studies to advantage, and she
is admirably finished in both. Miss
Grant will not make her formal debut
this winter, as has been enormously
reported. She was presented at the
Austrian court, and in view Of this
fact and that she is the recipient of
no end of invitations to the principal
affairs of the season Mrs Grant con-
scented to allow her daughter to appear
at a few of the entertainments to be
given this winter.

SUPPLIES FOR WAR VESSELS
Enormous Sums Necessary to Keep Up
the United States Naval Force.

Furniture and supplies for Uncle

of money. To fit out one of the ships

with all modern cOnvenienceS and
complete restaurant facilities, lighted
throughout by electricity-a gigantic
fighting machine and military barracks
combined. Her steel walls, brlstling
with guns, shelter 4 small army OF
men. The New York, for example, has
a crew numbering 49,, besides forty
marines and forty-four officers. To
feed them all for a twelve month, at
the governments rate of allowance,
costs 100000. On going into commits
sion such Il ship must be furnished
throughout, from the kitchen which
is as complete as that Of Il Grcac city
hostelry, to the captains cabin. She
carries large stocks of stationary, hard
ware and apOthecaries' gods, and is
provided with tools for all sorts Of
trades. Everything conceivable that
may be needed for purposes of war
and peace is supplied, because on the
high seas no shops or factories are
accessible Usually the vessel is pro-
visioned for only three months, be-
cause there is no room to stow more.
The rations are purchased by the
navy department and comprise such
necessities as hard-bread, corn meal,
| oatmeal. hominy, flour, salt pork,
beans, peas, rice, preserved meats,
butter, coffee, and tea. Every man in
the navy from the last boy shipped up
! to the admiral, has an allowance OF
80 cents day for rations, which he
may draw either in food or In money.
The payma ster Of ship has charge
of all the provisions which are dealt
out by his "yeoman," who is in turn
assisted by the jack-o'-dust. The per-
son last named attends to opening the
barrels and packages. Coffee and
sugar are served out once in ten days,
flour every four days and meats daily.
While in port fresh provisions are
furnished, each man receiving one
pound Of fresh bread, one and one
quarter pounds of fresh meat and one
pound Of fresh vegetables per diem.
These take the place of the ordinary
rations. only tea and coffee being pro-
vided In addition. The allowance Is
at all times so liberal that the enlisted
men cannot possibly consume the
whole of it, so they take part or IL IN
cash.

ANGEL KISSES.

From out that portal, cleaning with
it's soft and holy light,
Floating gently downward through the
stiffness Of the night,
4 wave of love comes stealing on the
golden, starry tips,
And the breath of angel kisses fingers
sweetly on my lips.
The touch of baby fingers finds glad,
responsive thrill,
Giving peace to empty arms that noth-
ing else can fill
Thoughts of morrow vanish, as the
present swiftly slips,
And | eagerly reach for kisSes-the
kisses Of angel lips.
The dreary, weary aching, Of tue
wounded hearts forgot,
In this hour Of blissful dreaming,

And when the dread awakening. with

I thank God for the dreaming, and the
angel kisses sweet.

MADE THE COMPASS USELESS.

The story that u deviation of her
compass resulting from the presence
of steel in a cork leg worn by the
man at the wheel caused the steamer
Susan E. Peck to strand near Bar
Point, Lake Erie, in September last,
with a loss to the underwriters OF up
ward Of $4,000, recalls to the MllWau-
kee Wisconsin a similar circumstance
According to the narrator, on one OF
the trips of the fine steel steamer
CaStalia down Lake Huron the past
season the second mate reported to
Captain Alien that the compass had
suddenly gone wrong; that the needle
would swing three or four points to
the right or left at intervals, and that
because of these cratic movements
it had become utterly impossible to
steer Il conSe-in fact, he had lost
track of the course Of the steamer
altogether. Captain Allen accompanied
the mate to the pilot-house and found
matters just as they had been reported
Besides the man at the wheel two

corsets. A reply in the affirmative
| led to a further question as to where
they had been, and this elected the in

there the engineer had afforded then

DEATH ON CHOLERA GERMS.
Tobacco Soon Destroys the Bacilh OF
the Deadly Oriental Plague.

Some interesting Investigations have
been made on the vitality of cholera
organisms on tobacco by Wernicke,
says Nature. Small pieces of linen
soaked in cholera broth cultures were
rolled up in various kinds Of tobacco,
and the latter We're made into cigars.
AIT the end of twenty-four hours only
a few baciIi were found on the linen,
and none on the leaf. On the sterile
and dry tobacco leaves, the bacilli
disappeared in one-half to three hours
after incubation. On moist, unsteEil
lied leaves they disappeared in from
one to three days, but on moist and
sterile leaves in from two TO four days.
When introduced into a 5 per cent.
tobacco infusion (ten grams OF leaves
to 200 grams Of water), however, they
retained their vitality up to thirty
three days, but in a more concentrated
infusion Zone gram Of leaves to two

RULES FOR DOMESTIC SERVICE
How Servants Were Controlled in
Shakespeare's Time.


The New York Herald:-Despite our
proud boast of progress, it is to be
questioned if we have improved upon
the rules controlling domestic service
that prevailed so far back at Shake
speare's time, if quaint legend is true.
The bard gives the impression in his
plays that the servants of the period
were treated with kindness that al
ity, while yet they were bound by the
strictest oaths of fidelity and were
subject to fines for various offenses.
POSthumous says Of Imogene'S ser
want: 1.-THE attendants are all sworn
and honorable" and Il chronicle Of the
time tells us that "goodly fines" were
imposed for being absent from prayers,
for uttering an oath, for leaving a door
open or for any follower" visiting the
cook. In another code of rules are the
| following lines:
If any one this rule doth break
| And cut more bread than he can
| eat
|
! Less stringency now, and perhaps as
consequence less faithful service
The Japanese, who are proverbially
slow to alter their established customs
have long had sets Of rules for govern
ing their household servants that are
not unlike those sung about by the
poet.
An almost universal politeness pre-
walls in Japan. Masters are quiet
even courteous in the treatment OF
their servants, and in turn they gel
respectful devotion, outwardly, a
least, for they never speak unless
