How the President Is Paid.

The president of the United States receives his salary in warrant upon the treasurer at the beginning of every month, and Col Crook, one of the Jerks at the white house, obtains his signature and receipt and deposits the money to his credit in one of the Washington banks. The warrant is signed by the chief of the warrant division and approved by the secretary of the treasury or one of his assist ants.

What Johnnie Wanted to Sing.

In one of the schools of Worcester, Mass, the teacher, intending to relieve the menotony of he regular exercises, asked the pupils f they would not like to sing. Of course there was an in- stant clamor in the affirmative and then the teacher asked what song they would prefer. One little boy, in his eagerness to make the selection, spluttered out something which the teacher did not catch. Turning to the boy across the aisle, she asked what Johnnie said. Please" came the un- expected answer, The says he wants to sing His Country, 'Tis of Him."

 &YAWNING
Must Now Be Considered High Com
 pfiment.

pfiment.
 Have you ever observed at theater or concert that the people who are most deeply interested appear between the acts to be quite weary of the whole thing, yawning half a dozen times In succession? The reason of this is a physiological one. When your atten- tion is much absorbed in anything ex- citing or touching, you breathe in a very shallow manner, and take into your lungs only half enough air. Con- sequently, when your attention is re- faxed, you have to make Up the def- ciency. This you do by yawning, which, after all, is only breathing a very deep breath. If you watch a man at play, and observe that he is greatly moved by some incident, you may feel sure that when the scene ends he will sigh, and moment or two later yawn repeatedly. Of course the yawning, so far from being a sign of weariness, is a proof of the liveliest appreciation. Very often you will ob- serve the same phenomenon in a girl reading a novel. And by her yawns you can tell when the end of some ab- sorbing incident is reached.

FED TO ANIMALS.

In the corn districts of the United States the English sparrows have abandoned insects for grain.
 Though horses train best on hay and oats in many stables they are now be- ing fed hay, bran, vegetables and corn, mixed, steamed and then served after this cooking. Dogs have been induced to feed on vegetables in order that they may be milder tempered and the dog biscuits fed them have taken the place of table scraps.
 Animals that live on one single food. are growing more scarce among the highly organized creatures. There is evidence that the swan once fed on aquatic grasses. Once when ice de- stroyed the grass growing at the bot tom of the lagoon at Abbotsbury the half-wild swans starved in hundreds because they would touch no other food. Nowadays they eat grain and bread.
 Instances of carniyorous animals turning to a vegetable diet are rare. One noted instance is a Scotch deer hound, which is so fond of peaches that it will stand on it's hind legs to reach them on the trees. In New Lea- land parrot took to sheep killing and eating, and some pigs evinced a prefer ence for a diet of young lamb, while some Australian sheep became not only carniyorous but eannihal.

Plans Napoleonic.

An cratic French scribbler comes out in the Revue Des Deux Mopdes with a new scheme to take Westmin- ster Abbey. It is no less than a pro- ject to embark some 500,000 men in jolly boats and hurl them across the channel in a body. Torpedo boats having cleared the way, winds and weather being propitious, and no stupid Albion on hand to repel, it is believed that the thing might have chances of success. Quick firing guns are to be the only artillery besides the torpedo tubes. Just what the Channel squad ron of the British. navy would do is not said.

AN ELOQUENT PASSAGE.

1t cannot be that earth is
mans only abiding place. 1t
cannot be that our life is a
mere bubble cast up by eternity
to float a moment on the waves
and sink into nothingness.
Else why is it that the glorious
aspirations which leap like an
gels from the temple of our
hearts are forever wandering
unsatistied; why is it that the
stars that hold their festival
around the midnight throne are
set above the grasp of our linn
tied faculties, forever hooking
Us with their unapproachable
glory? And finally, why is it
that bright forms of human
beauty presented to our view
are taken from US, leaving the
thousand streams of our affec-
tions to flow back in Alpine
torrents upon our hearts? There
is a realm where the stars will
spread OUt before US like the is
lands that slumber in the ocean;
and where the beautiful beings
which pass before us like shad.
ows will stay in our presence
forever George D. Prentiss.

A WHOLESALE ROMANCE

from Minnesota and Dakota,
all Scaudinavians, bound for

for them.
This is a pretty romance. A

These young men are of sturdy
stock and make the best kind of

intelligent and honest with all
the virtues of thrift.
Their brides will be welcome.
