their peculiar little wire counting
racks, sometimes styled Jingle boards"
by jokers of the West. During an argu-
ment between Treasury official and
an attache of the Chinese Legation,
the statement was made by the latter
that problems could be solved quicker
upon the Chinese device than with pa
per and pencil. This was disputed and
contest arranged in which an expert
accountant of the Treasury depart
ment and the teller of Chinese bank
took part. One used pencil and paper,
the other his wires and beads. An in
tricate example was read and the
Treasury clerk took it down while the
Chinaman manipulated the beads.
When the reading was finished it was
necessary for the clerk to work out his
problem, while the Celestial not only
had the correct answer, but could give
the figures and result at any point in
the problem.
So much for Chinese education.

A State Dinner in Venice.

In 1852 the patriarch of Aquileia
feted Ranuccio Farnese, the pope's
nephew, in the palace on the Giudecca.
The rooms were decked with extraor-
binary sumptuousness, cloth of gold,
paintings and illuminations adding to
the effect produced by the patriarch's
cooks. Among the guests were twelve
gentlemen in fancy marine costumes
of green satin with red lining, wearing
caps of the same colors and each &C
coEpanied by lady dressed in white.
This repsst lasted four hours, varied
by music and the professional enter
tainers of the day. 1t ended with the
cutting up of certain large pies from
which live birds flew out into the room.
The guests strove with each other to
catch these birds.-Ex.

Passing thro' this world, perhaps astray;
Maybe in Youths Spring he pluck d rose,
Seeking Pleasures scent-as pleasure goes
Soon to relnquish with spirit torn,
The Joyance, wherein there lurk d the thorn.
Near approaches now sweet Summers bloom,
And in his mind still the Floss finds room;
With bitterness seard his soul remains,
Tho he'd fain forget Frustrations pains.

Alike the Pharisee? No, not 1!

Perchance erstwhile the cloud is riven
Numb the nonce the pain of Yesterday,
He picks the Bell Flower on Life's Way.

M day when the 'old Adam"
IVY arose in me in his might and
chastised the unfaithful SER
want who Willfully and maliciously |
broke into my cellar in order to steal
cider, there has been change in the
behavior of my other two manservants
that I lack words to describe. They
were shiftless fellows, much given to
grumbling, and were diligent only in
lodging work. Now they work as
hard as a politician near election time.
They were surly and uncivil, and if
they had such a thing as a bump OF
reverence their general conduct Ger
tainly didn't bear witness to the pres
ence of such bump. Now they are
good-natured, almost mannerly, and at
times their bearing towards me is even
reverential.
There is class of people that can
only be overawed by display of brutal
strength. Gentleness is thrown away
on them. They only respect a big stick,
and firm hand and a strong arm to
WELD the stick. You cannot reason
with them. They are logic-proof. The
best way to persuade them to your
way of thinking is to administer few
we'll directed kicks. Patience is a
great thing, and handy thing-espe-
cially when courting girl who is con-
scious of her power over yOu-but it is
worse than folly to exercise patience
on all occasions. Man learns slowly.
All summer long have been trying to
bear patiently the insults and the pre-
meditated cussedness of my manser-
wants, hoping the while that their
hearts might soften, or their con-
sciences force them to moderate their
insolence, but 1 hoped in vain. When
at last the trespass of one of them up
on the sacred precincts of my cider eel
lar aroused in me the slumbering spirit
of anger, and when his gross disrespect
towards my person kindled anger into
fury, which in turn brushed aside the
cobwebs of barren reason and cold self
restraint, and impelled me with ire
sistible force to fall upon him anC
smite him, the transformation of these
wicked and unfaithful servants into
patient and cheerful workers was 81
sudden that both they and were tax
en- completely by surprise. 1 am agair
master in my own house, and from
now on will brook no interference, no

tangled doctrines during working
hours. You may spring your notion
on any one who is ready to listen t.
you after working hours; you may dis
cuss your theories with whomsoeve
you please when not engaged in actua
labor; but when there is work to b
done all theories have to be side
tracked: work is necessity, and is er
titled to the right of way. If you fa
