COMMON Joys.

Our common toys, oh. what are thsyS
The brightest md the best. p
They glad us In our busy walks,
Arewitb US when werest.
An angel band. they hover round -
In waking and In dream,
And DER our hearts In saddest hours
They shed o golden beam.
Our common Joys, oh, what are they
But blessings felt within
For smallest deeds Of goodness done
Amid world Of sin9
The mite we give the child Of want,
The slightest word Of cheer
That lifts heart with sorrow bowed
Or dries falling tear.
Our common Joys, oh, what are theyf
The priceless pearls and gold
Which memory Sits upon the heart
When life is growing old. 'at"
The thought TINT we have treasured up,
Where naught can steal away,
Tho consciousness of doing good
With every passing day.

DimeuIt GoverninR.

The difficulties of carrying on parlia-
mentary government are not small, but
what must 1t be to try to govern on
constitutional lines through such a
body as the parliament of Austrial
There are only 425 deputies collected
from the 10000, 900 of Germans, Slavs,
Maygas and Roumanians, and Austrians
proper, of which the empire is COM
posed, and among these 425 there are at
least rs parties. The Slavg, of whom
there are III, come first, almost bal
aneed by the Germans, who number 163.
There are 10 Italians, and an indefinite
sprinkling of other races, while the
SIays are divided into Cvechs, of whom
there are 63, Poles, who number s., and
Roumanians, who have succeeded, in
spite of great persecution, in returning
IL deputies TO the reichsrath. The Ger
mans, naturally, are subdivided into
elericaIs, anti-cIericals, SeTnites and
liberals, while, to make the tangie still
more intricate, there are to be added
ii socialists, who stand by themselves
and carry on their own private ma
chinatfons, independently of every

FIREPLAcEs OF SNOW.
As They Are Constructed I'm Eskimo
Winter Houses.

As They Are Constructed I'm Eskimo
Winter Houses.
About the end of January, or when
the sun again appears above the hori-
Yin, many families at the two Eskimo
villages near Point Barrow, in Alaska,
leave their winter houses and travel
inland rs or 100 miles to hunt reindeer
among the upper waters of the large
rivers that flow into the Arctic ocean
east of the point. Here they encamp
in large, comfortable snow houses,
usually dug out in solid snowdrift.
Like all Eskimo winter houses, these
are entered by means of a long, low
tunnel; and opening out of one side
of this tunnel there is fireplace built
of snow slabs.
A young man and his wife moved
down from Point Barrow after winter
had set in, and, as there was no accom-
mediation for them in any of the per-
manent wooden houses, they built
themselves a small hut from blocks of
snow and rooted it over with sailcloth.
1 made them visit one afternoon, and
found the house pretty cold and un-
comfortable in spite of the large stone
lamp that was burning all the time.
The entrance tunnel was about ten feet
long; at the left hand as you entered,
and close to the door, was the fireplace
This was about 21% feet square, and
neatly built of slabs of snow, with
smoke hole at the top and stick
stuck across at the proper height to
hang a pot on. When the first fire is
built in such fireplace there is con-
siderable melting of the surface of the
snow, but as soon as the fire is allowed
TO go out this freezes TO hard glaze of
ice. which afterward melts only very
little. These firep1aces are used only
for cooking. as the Eskimos rely wholly
ON the oil lamps for warming the dwell
ing.-Lippincott's.

Pope LEO GRANTS 4 eooN.
the Fmnaoun Antec Calendar TO NE ne
iss1ed by the Duc de LonbMa.

The Fmmoun Axtec Cmaemdar 20 NE RE-
Issued by the Due de Lonb1a.
Pope Leo has privileged Due de
Loubat to reissue the famous Aztec Cal
endar, one of the NEST interesting of an
cient American books, heretofore
known IN science as $40. S773 of the
Vatican Library"
A transcript of this book, and q very
unsatisfactory one. was issued by an
Irish writer, Edward King. sometimes
called Viscount Kingsborough. in the
early fOrties, under the title Of San
Equities Of Mexico" but as by the mis-
takes of the lords technical adviser, the
given in proper succession, science was
more mystified than it profted by the
reproduction. or the alleged reproduc-
ton, of the great book. The library of
the Vatican became possessed of this
treasure In 1896 by one of the dukes
of Terranova and Monteleone, in Sicily,
heirs to fernando Cortez, conqueror OF
Mexico, who surrendered this price
less record OF Aztec literature and
learning to his holiness, while other less
elaborate and much smaller specimens
of Aztec writings went to various Eu-
ropean libraries, one, strange to say, to
that of the elector of SAKE, where it is
sill preserved in the Royal library in
Dresden
The Aztec book consists of ten pieces
of hide of different lengths, and al
though they are merely cemented to-
gether by some sort of mucilage they
have not loosened one bit in three CEN
turtles. The whole book is seven meters
long and folded, like fan, in 4s leaf
lets, the ends of which are fastened to
pieces of wood. the whole forming a so
called Amortontli, eight inches high,
seven inches broad and nearly three
inches thick.
The characters are written on both
sides. the original hide being covered by
whitish gum lac or varnish. The colors
are wen preserved, though of somewhat
darkish hue, as is customary with the
American Indians.
The covers of the book are of wood.
They were likewise covered with
lacquer originally. but most of it has
worn off. In one corner there is a
small, round, greenish turquoise, such
as the Mexicans used to employ in their
work of mosaics. On the back cover
there is nothing but hole to mark the
placewhere a stone formerly adorned it.
The book is done in hieroglyphics;
that is, pure picture writing, the names
of all things being represented by
painted objects which correspond "a
them. 1t was the work of the Nahua
tribe and represents religious calen.
dar, the time being measured by solar
year composed of Is months of 20 days
each, adding five Complementary days
to make up the 365.-N. Y. Journal.

INDIAN COOKS.
Are Ready Pupils and Are Pleasant
and Go0d-Natured.

Are Ready Pupils and Are Pleasant
and GOOd-Natured.
Standing on either side of the long
table, watching with attentive eyes that
help the understanding of the unfamil-
lar language, they show themselves
ready pupils. using the strange cooking
utensils with an adaptation that has no
awkwardness in 1t. They are not quick,
but exact. and nothing seems to be
too much trouble, although one woman
said: "She makes us wash our hands
very much when we cook" The yeast
lesson is often asked for, and as we
teach the simple potato yeast without
hops, it is quickly learned and very help
full in putting good breadinto the homes.
Occasionally we have found, on visiting
the cabins, an array of crisp brown
loaves that would do credit to Boston
cooking school.
The physician complains that these
people eat too much meat, so we have
confined our lessons during the summer
to luncheons and dinners without meat,
the women doing all the work of pre-
pairing and serving the meal, and after
ward making the kitchen tidy, under
direction. They do so well and are so
good-natured, and the pleasant smile
is always lurking in the corners Of their
eyes or trembling on their lips, ready
to break and ripple over the face on the
slightest provocation. Even the old
women, whose lives have been spent
under conditions so hard that there
is no grace or beauty left in the scanned
and weather-beaten faces or the bent
