WHEN IT IS TEN O'CLOCK.


We may think this question IS eaaly
answered by saying, 1T is ten O'Clock
just sixty minutes after Q and just
sixty minutes before IL" Not 50, thought
an eminent Judge OF New York state.
He was very strickland justly so-In re-
quiring jurors to be in their seats in
court when the clock struck 10, and the
panel was called. A tardy juryman was
invariably reproved and fined.
Once, a few days after having rebuked
and fined delinquent juryTnan, some
thing occurred to prevent the Judge from
being In his seat at the appointed hour.
Court and jury were obliged to wait for
his appearance until long after 10 O'Clock.
When ne finally arrived, the juryman
who had been fined for tardiness a few
days before, with more boldness than dis
cret.on, rose and asked for eane remittance
OF the fine he had paid. "As,' he said,
I'VE all see that circumstances may occur
which unavosdedly detain even the pread-
ing officer until after 10 O'Clock"
But the judge rose with great dignity
and said. Il wish the jury and this jury
man IN particular, TO understand that II is
never 70 O'Clock until the Judge Is On tie

vinced.-Ex.

CHANGED STYLE OF LIVING.
Engineer.

Engineer.
Although the cost of living has been
materially reduced in most articles OF
aecessty, und wages are much higher
than they were thirty years ago, the ma
jorlty of the people are but little better
off financially. The reason is TO be found
IN the higher scale OF living which has
to be met to retain any social position.
Thirty years ago men In moderate c.r-
cumstances thought themselves of with
living rooms furnished plainly and simply,
the chambers with cottages (enameled)
bedytea1 and cEhirs and pain linen and
plated silver throughout. This is all
changed, and the living rooms must copy
as closely as possible the nppurtenances
and belongings of wealthy families. There
Is no cottage furniture for sale, and
where rag carpets were formerly
thought good enough for ordinary use
There are Brussels carpets, limitations OF
imported rugs and all sorts OF useless
brlc-a4bnlc that runs away with many
a hard earned dollar. AL classes con-
sume and enjoy a great deal more than
lhey formerly did, and everybody, rich,
mod rate clrcumstanced or poor, wants
more than he formerly did. All classes
ltrlvel more frequently and longer dis
tlnces than they were formerly accus-
TONED to. They have more clothes, more
food, more finery, more books and papers
than their fathers had, but they do not
save as much as they did.

MacRossie, "is the best heritage Of any
young man. l do not mean well born
in the worlds esteem, not amongst wealth
and the most exalted social positions
that always reminds me of the explorers
in that beautiful novel, 'Solomon's
Mines who, when they had at last come
into the presence Of that fabulous wealth,
found themselves shut in in the cave;
50 many a one is shut in by the wealth OF
his parents. The world does not look to
palaces for well born men.
When George Peabody, after amas-
sing great wealth., returned one day to
his native village, he said to the young
men In an address: i am only the man

father was q poor villager, and still the
son became a great man. It's mostly al
ways 50 in this worcd; its history does
not begin in the palace, but IN the hut;
not in riches, but in honest tool.
To be well born needs nothing OF the
WORLDS esteem. A well-born man Is
always a mothers boy. The young man
OF today seems to be ashamed to be
tied TO his mothers apron strings, and
afraid to be called a mothers boy But
all great men have been such. Washing

hneiton was one; all were proud OF
their mothers. And il you find man who

ITO become a moral Sampson one
must have laid good foundation, not
only in education, but also, and much
more 50, in character. Nearly without
exception the great men OF the world,
laid in youth, foundation Of righteous

turned gray, but they carved their life
in youth. They were also thorough-go-
ing men, far different than the Sampson
Of our text, who wos spasmodic in all

too intensely; 1t became an end to him,

The assembly hail of the building was
crowded with visitors and parents who
were anxious to hear the children In their
exercises. The program was well render
ed. After the exercises all were invited
to examine the work of the pupils which
had been arranged in the primary room.
Much of the work as drawing and COM
position work and examination work,
was well and neatly done rejecting cred
it on the pupils for their earnest and

Warm sleeping Quarters.

The houses In Corea being small, the
rooms are of diminutive size. The most
curious point about them is that the
flooring is made of stone, and that I'M
der the stone flooring there is regular
oven, called "Kan," in which q big fire
is kept up night and day. Often, as the
people sleep ON the ground in their
clothes, it happens that the floor gets so
hot as almost to roast one. The Core
ans seem to delight in undergoing this
roasting process, and when well broil-
ed on one side they turn on the other,
and take 1t quite as a matter of course.
1 admired them for ii, but was never
rule, have only one floor, raised few
feet above the ground, and the rooms
seldom measure more than twelve feet
square. The roof Is very heavy, and
sustained by very heavy beam, and
the windows are of paper, as in Japan.
The Coreans are not devoted to the
bath tub; they wash their hands fairly
often, and the better people battle their
faces almost daily. Those Of the chill
dren are whitened with chalk, and the
hair Is oiled and parted in the middle,
plastered down, and tied into one or
two small pigtails. This description
does not call up particularly pleasing
mental picture; nevertheless, when
dressed in their gay holiday attire, the
small Coreans are very quaint and
pretty.

Greenland Woman Boats.

AS their name implies, these boats are
rowed by women. They are open, fiat
bottomed, inconvenient affairs, but
large enough for the family and the
family goOds-tents, household imple-
ments, dogs, children and the rest.
They are rowed by as many as half a
score of oarswomen, and sometimes
make run of fifty English miles day.
They are generally steered by the
male members follow in their kairks.
In their woman-boats, says DR.. Nan
sen, the Greenlanders used to move
from one hunting-ground to another all
through the summer. For one or two
months they always went far up the
tiords in search of reindeer, and there
they lived on the fat of the land. In
those days they often undertook long
journeys up and down the west coast,
as to this day on the east coast. These
journeys are sometimes five hundred
miles in length. As a rule they do NOT
travel quickly. Two years are some
times spent in covering a distance OF
one hundred and eighty miles. But, as
soon rs the Eskimos come to place
where there are plenty of seals, they
go ashore, pitch their camp, take to
hunting, and live at their ease. At the
approach of autumn, they choose good
site, build winter house, and continue
their journey in the spring or summer
as soon as the ice permits.

Sweet Ghosts.

Our home was closed for three years
while we were on the continent; and
soon after our return, last June, we be-
gan to hear mysterious noises. The
lofts were low, with sloping ceilings,
end it was there that we heard them.
The sounds varied. Sometimes we
heard low, heavy rumbling, like dis
tant thunder; at other times we heard,
or seemed to hear, broken murmurs,
like hoarse voices in conversation; but
usually the noise suggested distant
whispering and grooming.
We were not superstitious, but 1t was
not pleasant to have such things going
en- in the house. For four weeks we
sought vainly for an explanation of the
mystery. Rats and mice never made
such noises, nor bats and birds. So far
as we could think, nothing that flies,
nothing that runs, could produce such
sounds as came from our haunted
chambers.
We had many curious visitors, but
pretty soon some of our more ignorant
neighbors began to shun the house.
This had been going on for about four
weeks, when father came into the room
one morning in a state of evident ex.

We laughed at the idea; but father

ANCIENT EGYPTIAN SOLDIERS.

Discoveries That Have Lately Been
Made in the Tomb of Assault.
Mention was recently made Of the
discovery in the tomb of Assiut (fifth
dynasty of wooden models of two COM
panies Of Egyptian soldiers. Further
details have just been received, sent
by the Egyptian Exploration fund.
Each company consists of forty figures,
about thirteen inches high, fixed to 9
wooden board in squads of four The
figures are colored and have the loin
cloth. They are equipped with spear
and shield. The spears are as long as
the men, and the butts carried on a
level with the knee. The bronze heads
are about one-sixth the total length Of
the spear, and are shaped lize those OF
the Baggara Arabs of to-day. The
shields have a square base and come
to a point, and are eight inches long.
Across the narrow portion is batten,
through which the hand passes. The
second squad are black-skinned, small
err men, and wear scanty loin cloth.
Their arms are bows and arrows tip
ped with flint, with edges chisel-shaped
and the tips not sharp. The Egyptian
contingent marches in regular order,
'lockcd up" the negro soldiers strag-
gle. The latter must have been the
irregulars, because to use the bow and
arrow must have required loose for
