Settling the Boys Career.

An old Dutchman had beautiful
boy, of whom he was very proud, and
he decided to find out the bent of his
mind. He adopted very novel method
by which to test him. He slipped into
the little fellows room one morning
end placed on his table Bible, a bottle
eff whisky and silver dollar.
"Now," said he, wen dot boy comes
in. eff he dakes dot dollar, he's goin' to
he beesniz man; eff he dakes dot Bible,
he'll be a preacher; eff he dakes dot
whisky, he's no goot-he's goin' to be
q drunkart," and he hid behind the door
to see which his son would choose.
In came>the boy, whistling. He ran
up to the table. and picked up the dollar
and put it in his pocket; he picked up
the Bible and put it under his arm.
then he snatched up the bottle of whis-
Ky and took two or three drinks, and
went out smacking his lips. The old
Dutchman poked his head out from be-
hind the door and exclaimed:
mine gracious-he's going to be a
politician" Traveller.

"Ah! that is good" he said; "and why
does the grave and reverend Cavaliere
Donati waste his time here, hanging at the
heels of churchman, and moping O nights
like an owl ON ruined wall, instead of stir

Nobody can pay pre,tier compliment
than the Irishman when he chooses.
His tongue and wit are never nimbler
than when he employs them in the
service Of "blarney." A young profess
sor from Dublin was entertained over
night by an American professor at his
summer home on the coast Of Maine.
At breakfast the NEXT morning the HIT
tie daughter of the house, who sat next
the young Irishman, saw with amaze
ment that he put no sugar in his tea.

after supper we diced together for an hour
or so, for very small points. He was an

he mastered my favorite throw, and one
evening after returning from the vatican
he knocked me up in my rooms, and flung

DARLING.
EINsLEY,

DO oft. my friend. you speak Of her,
It bids my inner being stir.
And who is darling, this pray?-
A sunny child. bud of May,
Whose laugh and shout and cherub face,
At every time, in every place
Are of your heart its sweet employ
IL this your darling, this your joy?
All no! see 1t is in truth
A maiden in the growth Of youth.
AS lovely as a morn in June,
There scarce could be a sweeter boon;
Expectancy upon her face.
And Joy and hope add dimpled grace;
The dewdrop clearness in her eye.
AS blue and soft as yonder sky.
My darling is not thus, all no!
Her eye 1t hath no lustrous glow.
Her brow bears marks of age and care,
Like symbols. too, her cheek doth wear
Her hands are trembling, pallid, weak.
Her steps her feebleness doth speak,
Her voice has quavers in it's tone.
The verge of life by her is won.
And yet to me more passing fair
Than sunny child or maiden are
That face where age has set Its sign,
Has patient smile almost divine,
And those dim eyes have holy light,
As If they saw beyond our sight,
The hands so trembling, pale and weak
OF long and faithful service speak.
These marks of beauty, friend, are such
Not age nor sense, but heart that touch
They tell me in little while
I'll miss the patient face and smile.
I touch her lips. I grasp her hand,
With reverent awe before her stand,
And whisper soft. aye. tenderly.
My mother darling is to me.

Omaha in the spring Of 1854. At that
time he was the most talked of man in
America. He had not a thing but mon
ey. He bought 5000 city lots, and alto
gether spent several hundred thousand
dollars. He boarded at the Herndon
House, the best hotel in sight. The
quixotic Train was regular in only one
thing-his habits. He always occupied
the same seat at the table. One morn
| ing pane of glass was broken out of a
window directly behind his chair. He
protested and was advised to change
his seat. He would not Instead he paid
a servant 10 cents a minute to stand

landlord, but received no satisfaction.
"Never mind said Train. "In 60
days will build hotel that will ruin
! your business. .
And he did. The contract was let
that day. Scores Of men were put to
work. The site selected was Ninth and
Harney streets, near the Missouri river.
Citizen Train went to New York and
engaged Colonel Cozzens, a noted caterer
of that city, as manager for his hotel.
The building alone cost $40, 900. The
furnishings cost $40, 900 more. In the
basement was gas plant-the only

The Cozzens House did fourishing
business for year or two and the Hern-

the place was closed.
After the business part of Omaha
