II MUST BE THE DICTIONARY"
Charles Dickens, if he is queried after
this fashion.
The game of 'Initials'' requires q
nimbler wit. 1t also requires pretty &C.
curate general knowledge of persons
who are uppermost. The points, when
the name of some living celebrity is
mentioned, to characterize the celebrity
in two or three words beginning with
the letters which make the celebrity's
initials, as, for Instance:
ChaunceyM M. Depew-Celebrated Mer-
ry Diner.
Ulysses S. Grant-Uncle SANS Cen
cral.
Harriet Beecher Stowe-Helped Black
Slaves.
Frid jof Nansen-Fleeting Northward.
Louise NJ. Alcott-Lovely, Motherly
Authoress.
r. E. Peary-Racing Ever Poleward.
Thomas W. Carlyle-Terrifying, Wit
ty, Critical.
Not all these examples are beyond
criticism, but as they are reported di-
rectly from a gathering of young folks,
held. not long ago, they show pretty
conclusively that the game has an edu-
cational value. 80.

Reading for Children.

7 I had recently in my service a pretty
little housemaid, barely 10 years old,
neat, capable and good-tempered, but
50 perpetually downcast that she threw
a cloud over our unreasonably cheer
ful household. l grew melancholy
watching her at work. One day, going
into the kitchen, l saw lying open on Il
chair, book she had just been reading.
It purported to be the experience Of
missionary in one of our large cities
and was divided into nine separate
stories. These were their titles, cop
led verbatim on the spot: "The Intidel. y
"The Dying Banker" ''The Drunkard's
DEATH" "The Miser's DEATH "The
Hospital" "The Wanderers Death,
"The Dying Shirtmaker," "The Broken
Heart" THE Destitute Poor" What
wonder that, like the Scotchman's fa-
nous dag, "life was full O seriousness
for her, when religion and literature,
the. two things which should make up
the sum OF our happiness, had con-
spired, under the guise of Sunday
school fiction, to destroy her gayety OF

simple and diguiied uildinr, whose
beauty is u constant delight to appre
ciative persons. 1t was conceived and
carried out by th2 arch tect who
planned it in the proper sF. t, but it is
lot large enough for the uses to which
it is necessarily Tut. The country and
the city OF Washington have grow, and
the presidents house have not grown
with them. A large part of it IS given
up to the business offices of the presi
dent, his private secretary, and his
clerks, and the presidents family aIe
deprived of the use of another large
part of the lower floor Of tie house be-
cause it is necessarily on public vieI|
most Of tl.e time The family is there
fore cramped for proper accomluo-
dations, and there are no rooms for the
entertainment of guests. Moreover,
the house is so badly arranged as to
entrances, exits, and Railways that a
state reception there is always an un-
comfortable and dangerous jam, while
many an invited guest, and many Off
GERS who attend certain functions under
orders, have been made ser ously i'll be-
cause they have been compelled to
stand for hours in cold or stormy wealth

have been making to secure worth
ier accommodations for the president.
Some Of these efforts have been in the
wrong direction, because they have
contemplated other buildings, foreign
to the intent and character of the white
house, within the same grounds. Other
efforts still are attempts OF spectators
to move the site of the mansion to the
hills north of the city.
The white house, with all its charntS
and memories, should be preserved, and
it should remain ON it's present beau
tiful and historic site, its, fine grounds
mencumberd by other structures. In
furtherance of this idea, plan pre-
pared by Mr.. Arthur j. Dillon shows
conclusivcly that the white house can
be made, not only abundantly spacious.
but even improved, while its architec-
tural features will be at the same time

FROZEN MUTTON.
Preparation of the New Zealand Product
for the Market.


The reason why Argentine mutton
generally is of inferior price to that of
New Zealand has thTee-fold eXplana-
ton. In the first place New Zealand
possesses to-day mutton-producing
breed superior to that known in the
Plate. In the second, the New Zealand
er feeds his stock during the winter
time with extra forage, while in the Ar
gentine the sheep are allowed to Craze
upon the same bare pampa during the
dead season. The result of this is that
the New Zealander produces an even,
well-grOwn carcass, while there is sent
home from the Plate one upon which a
hasty covering of fat has been put dur
ing the spring months of ,,e year. The
difference between the two carcasses
will readily be noted by anyone who
pays visit to the cattle market. Third
ly, the freezer in New Zealand freezes
the mutton on account Of the breeder;
and in the ArgentiE1 the freezer buys
from the breeder. Tic disadvantage of
the latter system, so long as the breeder
has no knowledge Of the requirements
OF the market, is apparent. The New
Zealand breeder selects his Ncthtrs
with care, rejecting any which will give
an inferior weight, or which are m
sufficiently fattened for the butcher
He RENTS them in small droves to the
freezing establishments, and takes
every care that they shall arrive in per-
feet order. The Argentine breeder, on
the ether hand, makes a contract with
the representative of the freezer to sell
a given number; and the latter binds
himself to remove them within certain
date-N. Y. Ledger.

Comp,u,on of the Dog Star.

Sirius, the dog-star, which is the
brightest to our eyes of all the fixed
stars, has a very remarkable companion,
never visible except with powerful tele-
scopes. 1t was first seen in 1862, and in
1890 it disappeared, the reason of its
disappearance being that it had moved
so close to Sirius as to be lost to view in
the overpowering light of that great
star During the time of its visibility
the fact had been ascertained that it was
revolving about Sirius at rate which
would carry it completely around in
some so years. The shape of its orbit,
which is an ellipse with Sirius situated
in one of the foci, being calculated, as
tronomers felt certain that in few
wears the vanished star would reappear
as it moved into a part of its orbit more
distant from Sirius. This expectation
has now been fulfilled, for recently the
missing star was seen again at the
Flagstaff observatory in Arizona. Al
though it is probably half as large as
Sirius, it is butone-ten-thousandth part
as luminous as that 1ar.-Youth's Com

kinds of micro-organisms are found in
wounds, one kind being benefcent and
the other injurious in it's effects. Ok
zen causes an increase of the former
and a decrease of the latter. so that
