When Men Should Marry.

1t was clearly meant that all men as
well as all women should marry, and
those who, for whatever reason, miss this
obvious destiny are, from natures point
of view, failures. 1t is not a question Of
personal felicity (Which in eight cases out
of ten may be moro than problematic) but
of race responsibility. The unmarried
man is a skulker, who, in order - secure
his own case, dooms some woman, who
has rightful claim upon him, to cell
bacy. And in so doing he defrauds him
self of the opportunities for mental and
moral development which only the nor
nal experience can provide. He deliber-
ately stunts the stature of his manhood,
impoverishcs his heart and brain and
chokes up all the sweetest potentialities of
his soul. TO himself he is apt to appear
like the wise fox that detects the trap,
though it be ever SO cunningly baited;
that refuses TO surrender his liberty for
the sake of an appetizing chicken or rab-
bit, which may, after all, be decoy, stuff
ed with sawdust, while, as matter of
fact, his case is that of the cowardly serv-
ant in the parable. who, for fear of losing
his talent, hid it in a napkin, and in the
end was deemed unworthy of his steward

Dickens Slips.

Dickens "Pickwick Papers" has de-
lighted millions of readers during the
past half century, but it has apparently
remained for a somewhat critical down
town reader to detect two or three anus
ing biunders or inconsistencies that have
gone unheeded through hundreds of edi-
lions. For instance, during the rock
shooting at Dinsley Dell. it is recorded
that the immortal Fat Boy laughed as
he retired with the bird" In chapter IS,
when that corpulent youth stumbled upon
the lovemaking between his young mis-
tress and thu poetic Snodgrass and had
been bribed into silence with half crowns,
one reads, "He burst into horse laugh
for the first and only time in his exist
ence." Again, when the reader is intro
duced to the fussy little Mr.. Peter Mag
nus, he is surveying the world through
blue spectacles, while at the end of the I'M
fortunate episode of the middle aged lady
in curl papers he dashed off his green
spectaeles. These are amusing trifles,
but they serve to show that novelists can
make mistakes just like ordinary people

Nervous diseases are the most terrible of
affections and lead to insanity, paralysis,
heart failure or complete nervous and
physical prostration. Whatever will cure
nervous disorders and save people from
these awful results, is the greatest dis
covery possible to be made.
This great remedy does cure. 1t does
give strength and vigor to the nerves and
restores vitality to the blood and body
1t cures, and this is exactly what the peo-
pie want. And they especially want it at
this season OF the year. for this grand
spring tonic and invigorator is necessary
if one would keep in perfect health.

successful specialist in curing all forms

Tennyson at Home.

Tennyson was never lat home" except
to such cherished friends as his neighbor,
the l&to Professor Tyndall. Access to his
study was consequently denied to nearly
all callers, and even the presence of those
who obtained the privilege of entree there
was sometimes irksome to the poet, whose
part in the conversation usually consisted
of monosyllables, as l remember to have
once happened during my stay, but he
could be very gracious to callers when III
the mood. Or the other hand, Sir Edwin
Arnold, in his "Reminiscences of the
poet, says, Albeit you saw Private road

try people to pass him on the road without

A. JOLLY SORT or FARM.


"Once some years ago." said Superin-
tcndent III. L. Woodman OF tho city's
aquarium at Castle Garden, II went up
the west coast of Florida in sailboat on
collecting tour for shells and so on. On
she north shore of Tampa bay we saw a
.ittle white house-vcry white indeed le
was-a whiteness, as we afterward learn
ed, that was due to whitewash made OF
lime from shells that the owner had burn
ed himself We went ashore there and
were most Hospitality received and invited
to stay. We couldn't do that, but we
were in the neighborhood for day or
two, and we ate two or three meals at his
house, and subsequently, l called upon
him once or twice and was received in
the same hospitable manner.
mo doubt there are other gardens like
his, but his is the only one of the sort
ever saw-a kind of land and water gar
:ion combined. His land garden, which
was about half an acre or so, was so or
perhaps 100 feet back from the shore. He
had in this garden cabbasos and beans
and potatoes and lettuce and garden stuff
generally. His water garden was COM
posed of three patches, each about 80 feet
square, side by side and un'ler water,
close to the shore and each inclosed in
palmetto crib, which was, however, only
one log high, for that was all that was
needed. He could so out in skiff at any
time and catch anything that there was in
any of the cribs.
In the first patch of the water garden
he kept hard CLANS, and he had plenty of
them. The second patch he had fixed up
for oysters. He had thrown in shells for
the oysters to spawn on, and he had an
abundant supply of oysters. The third
crib he had fixed up for crustacea. He
had thrown in some old stumps here and
showed in under the crib some slabs or
planks that had drifted ashore to make a
shelter for crawiish, which like to back in
under things, as the lobster does. He had
in this crib crawfish and crabs. OF course
these could easily have crawled over the
single log of the crib if they had wanted
to, but they didn't want to. They pre-
ferred the shelters in this crib to the sandy
beaches outside. In fact, the crib was an
attraction to any stray crawfish or crab
that might come that way. You see, he
had only to step out of his house on one
side for his vegetables and on the other for
his sea food. He gave us oysters steamed
in big iron pot over fire in the yard
and the pick of both his gardens, land
and marine, and certainly we couldn't
have had anything fresher or more delight
full. New York Sun.

RODENT STOWAWAYS.
Vast Numbers of Them That Quit This
Country Each Year.

"Ratss"
| The word was not spoken with any tone
of derision or disgust. 1t was simply the
repetition Of the latter part of question
which had been addressed to bluff Nor
wegian sea captain who is in command
of one of the largest fruit steamers plying
between New Orleans and the Central
American ports.
Rats! Why, there are millions of
them," remarked the captain as he
thOughtfully took long pulls at his
pipe, land the peculiar thing about them
is that there seems to be just as many as
ever, in spite of the fact that the fruit
ships and also all the other ships take many
away every trip. You may not believe it,
but l reckcn we must have aboard this
steamer many of the times she leaves Now
Orleans 300 or 400 rats, and on the return
trip there is not one to be seem"
But what do you suppose becomes of
them all? Are they drowned at sea-"
No, don't think so. 1 imagine they
leave the steamer when she touches az the
different Central American ports on her
voyage. Sometimes, though, we have but
q few of them aboard when we leave port,
and then we don't see much of Them
Other times there's lots of them, especial
ly ON warm, calm nights. They run all
over the ship and even are seen on tho
rigging and sails. They come out of the
hold to get scraps from the stewards gal
lery and get mighty troublesome.
Don't the steamers ever have any cats
aboard to keep them out of the way at
lcast?'
''Oh, yes, we have a cat or two general
ly, but there arc sometimes so many rats
that they cannot do much toward keeping
them even below the decks.''
During pause in tho conversation the
following computation was made TO show
the captain the immense number of rats
that were carried away from this port
every year by the fruit steamers alone,
providing his assertions were correct:
r considering that there arc 20 ships
in tho fruit trade, and that thoy
make on an average 90 trips n year, there
would be a grand total of 400 departures
of fruit steamcrs and estimating that
each steamer carried away from goo to
800 rats every trip they would decrease
the rat population of the city by at least
100, goo during the II months, this calcu-
latiQn being made in regard to the 90
fruit ships alone If all the other ships
that come to New Orleans during the year
carried away the average number of 200
rats trip, the total exodus of rats from
hero would amount to tho considerable
number of 800, 600 annually, not a small |
army by any means. New Orleans |

NO MEAT FOR ARTISTS.
Only Fruits and Vegetables Fitted to Feed
the Imagination.

tno Inauguration.
The idea that people who work with the
brain and the imagination ought to diet
themselves in accordance with the special
nature of their avocation seems to be of
tolerable antiquity. There is evidently
nothing new under tho sun, even in tho
way of dietary reform.
Raphael is said to have subsisted almost
entirely upon bread and dried fruits, being
as much of a 'faddist" in such matters as
the most up to date Of our modern vege-
tarians.
1t was his idea that meat diet was not
suitable for a painter, his theory being no
doubt that light food was more conducive
to tho state of mind necessary for the pro-
duction of imaginative work.
Perhaps he was right, though fancy
that some of the other immortal old mas
tiers managed to get along without any
such self denying ordinance.
As for our modern painters, even tho
most Imaginative among them do not ap-
pear SO far as one knows, to be converted
to vegetarian regimen.
Only imagine the irony of the situation
