That we have made thorough investigation
OF the matter by survey OF the bottom OF the

1t is. And II is the opinion of your committee the

Humors of Shorthand.

The conference of shorthand writers in connection with the celebration of the diamond jubilee of Putnam system discussed some unusual applications of shorthand One fervid gentls.nan en- larged on the advantages of ta~ swift art" as help to courtship How much gushing affection. the speaker asked, eyaporates i'll the process of writing love letters in long hand? The shorthand writing swain, penning his tender epis- ties to the photographic maiden. is free from this difficulty His intensest feel. ings he can express ill fluent strokes and curves the moment they stir within him This suggestion brought up an- other speaker. who favored his hearers with little reminiscence In remote days he had desired to put to certain young lady certain question to which he felt difficulty ill giving utterance. A happy thought struck him-he would put the question on paper i'll the sym
 bols of shorthand. This would be mys- terious to the lady; she would ask him to read the question, and hIs difficulties would at once disappear. Man proposes, but things do not always work out as he desires. The young lady exhibited JIG curiosity, but quietly pocketed the short. hand At the next interview with heI lover she calmly told him that she had unraveled his message and was prepared to give an affirmative reply. The willy maiden had sent the shorthand proposal to Sir Isaac Putnam, who had supplied her with the translation. Westminster Gazette

Snakes That Like Thunder.

One of the wonders of the bare, sandy plains of New Mexico is the thunder snakes. They are by no means common, yet they are often encountered by prairie travellers, especially before and after thunderstorms. Flashes of lightning and claps of thunder, which are so terrify- ing to bipeds and quadrupeds, seem to have the greatest charm and delight for these members of the serpent family
 Whenever a thunderstorm comes uI they have regular picnic. They come crawling out of holes, from behind rocks and rotten stumps and enjoy the fun while it lasts.

An old Age.

Moralists and philosophers have done their best, when they have themselves reached that time of life, to eulogize "old age, r" but they do not deceive even the young. ("These old gentlemen, says youth with its callow cynicism, "are foxes who have lost their tails. ") They have done the same thing with poverty, and with tho same i'll success. It has had no exhilarating effect upon poor people. The reasons why old men have written in praise of old age are not far to seek; they say with Johnson, Do not let us discourage one another. !" They are ill for it, and they make the best of 1t It Is not well to cry sinking fish Moreover, there is natural tend ency among we'll principlcd persons to make light of the ills of humanity They fancy they are paying compli- ment to Providence, and perhaps even consolidating it.
 There are many old men who say, and quite truthfully. that they would not be young again If they could, but what they mean is not of course, that they would not exchange weakness for strength and disillusiun for hope, but that they have no desire to live their lives over again The clIngIng to exist ence that we so often see in even very old men does not arise from love of it Pope, sitting by Sir Godfrey kneller's $ deathbed and finding him much dispir- ited. told him he had been good man and would doubtless go to heaven.

THE WHOLE DUTY Of MAN.
CONTAINED IN THE TEACHINGS
OF CHRISTIANITY.
Anglican Church Chronicle Points out
Some of the Prevailing Nagar!cs in
Current Religious Thought.

One of the peculiarities of those
countries where the Christian religion
prevails in, at least, outward signs and
forms, is the wandering off into va
rious systems of philosophy. Some Of
these are, or are supposed to be aids
to the Christian faith and good works
and some have tendency to threw
Christianity into the background,
while not altogether denying its sun-
damental principles, and others ut
terly repudiate any affinity to Chris
tianity. When people really virtuoIs
in their lives are victims of these
theories, they are totally unsuscep'i-
BILE to arguments on the side of the
Christian religion. One religion be-
comes to them as good or as bad as
another. They utterly fail to see
that what they point out as worthy
and good for the human race in Con-
fucius or Budha, is not only contained
in the religion of Christ, but is ac-
centuated. and carried to its farthest
extent. They fail to see also that
there is no need for any addition to
the teachings of the Church for the
sake of carrying out the whole duty
of man.
This is the cause of the detection of
many thoughtful young men from the
Church and its organizations. Of
course the pleasures of life are re-
sponsibile for very much indifference
of both young and elderly. The
thought that all ages have deemed
such detection nothing but "robbing
God"-never enters the brain. IT is
very unjust to lay blame on the
shoulders of pastors for the indiffer-
ence of young men to their ministra-
tons or to religion in general. They
are always ready to welcome with
open arms all who come to them to
instruct them, or to be instructed.
| There are innumerable channels in
which clergyman can direct the for
ces of young men if they will came to
| him, or point out the way in which
they can be reached.
But they must not expect the
church to be transformed into a place
of amusement, or the clergyman to
become montebank. The doctrine.
of Christ cannot be pared down to
suit any ones taste or proclivities. All
must school themselves to obtain the
faith once delivered to the saints, and
in that faith they will assuredly find
all that is necessary to their salvation
both in this world and in the next

THEY LIKED THE NATIVES.

The American troops were more
than charmed with the native Ha-
waiians of Honolulu. This report
came from hundreds of them, both
officers and men. Enemies of Hawaii
had told them in the States that the
natives and foreigners were not
friendly, and that they would not be
well received by the aborigines. Any
thing else was of course the case
The men went away with deep feel
ing of aloha for the Hawaiians, and
will have good words for them when
they return to the States.
