samuel johnson ON Women.

OF marriage in the abstract johnson
highly approved. Every man" he said.
"is worse man In proportion as he Is un-
flt for the married state" He even ap-
proved OF man contracting a second mar
riage, aud considered IL as n compliment
to the first wife. He Acknowledged, how
ever, that he had once been on the point
OF asking Mrs. johnson not to marry
again. She might we'll have granted his
request without any fear Of being tempted
TO break her promise. johnson ridiculed
the idea of man being unwilling to
marry pretty woman lest he should have
cause for jealousy "No, SIR" he said, 81
would prefer n pretty woman, unless there
are objections TO her. A pretty woman,
IL she has mind to be wicked, can find a
readier way than another, and that is all. y
He had, In fact, made profound study OF
women from every point Of view. And
yet, as Mr. Craig observes johnson never
took women quite seriously, and wonld
not hear of their assuming an equality
with men, either In mental or bodily pur
suits. .-Athcneum.

For score of years the geologists
have known Of the existence of immense
beds of shale in Wyoming which occa-
sionally yielded fine specimens of fossil
fishes. but it is only recently that sim
liar beds have been discovered in Color
ado. These beds Of petrified fish, con-
tanning millions upon millions Of indi-
vidual specimens, cover hundreds of
square miles in the northwestern part of
the Centennial State. They extend a
distance of 100 miles in the direction Of
Green river and 'shelve ont" for 100
miles more toward the interior of the
state In some places these beds--al-
most solid mass of perfectly fossilized
fish--are from $50 to 200 feet in thick
ness. One Of the greatest puzzles regard
ing the find is the fact that they lie
about 5000 feet above sea level st.

1t may be admitted that diet has more
or less influence upon character, but mild
ness, gentleness ana kindred virtues are
by no means universally found among
those races which abstain from animal
food. Vegetarians are prone TO contrast
the gentleness of our domesticated herbiv-
ora with the ferocity often displayed 10y
carnivorous animals. A little reflection,
however, shows that the food cannot be
the main cause of the disposition In either
case. Many of the herbiyora are capable OF
displaying the utmost ferocity; savage
attacks upon inoffensive persons by bulls,
horses and sings are by no means uncom-
mon in this country; while In the east,
"roguo' elephants. Wild boars and other
berbivorous animals often inflict serious
injuries upon human beings who chance
to come In their way.
So likewise the ordinarily mild Hindoo,
feeding on rice or wheat flour, Is liable to
become riotous, uncomfortable and blood
thirsty when influenced by religious fam
atheism. 1t would seem that the mischie-
vous effects upon the ha bits and disposition
ascribed To animal food are due rather to
the alcoholic liquors which are generally
consumed at the same time. The disposi-
tion of an average individual, leading q
temperate life, would probably not be al
tered for the better were he 10 substitute
vegetarian diet fer his ordinary fare

Recollectious OF Carlyle.

Mrs. Carlyle was dressed in black vel
vet. She had pale blue ribbon around
her neck, to which was attached q large
gold cross. She also wore n brooch which
bad been given to her by Goethe. One Of
her bracelets, very pretty one, pebbles Of
different colors, and beautifully cut, pol
ished and set In silver, she told the lady
had been invited to meet was a present
from the same great man. Soon after we
had adjourned to the drawing room, i
heard latch key in the door, and listen
ing intently heard steps and voices In the
hall. Mrs Carlyle gave me mischievous
smile, as Mr. Carlyle. followed by two
gentlemen, entered the room. They were
all In high spirits, and had been to see
Chang, the Chinese giant.
After Mr.. Carlyles kind "How dye
dos'' had no further word from him
that night, but was sufficiently interested
In listening to the brilliant, clever talk.
One Of these gentlemen was Professor
5yndall The other did not recognize.
Tho professor gave me my tea, and talked
to me little, but preferred listening
keeping well in Mrs Carlyle's shadow,
and slipping quietly away when IL grew
late. Blackwood's Magazine.
