What is Pleasure.

The hardy Anglo.Saxon's ideal of
pleasure is violent exertion, a pro.

the mountain with an incredible
expense of fatigue, be plerces the
tropic Jungle, he explores polar ice,
suffering, starving, roasting or freezing:
and he calls this sport. How can one
analyze such enjoyment as this.

ment is extended TO sll the animals
they press into the service. Often
have 1 admired the tact exhibited in
getting a large drove Of sheep through
narrow, crowded streets and alleys, by
merely having a little boy lead one OF
the quietest Of the flock in front; the
others steadily followed. Cattle, pigs
and birds are equally well cared for.
We met in Paris in 1869 Mr..
Burlingame, who was then our
Minister to China. We asked him
whether a society for the prevention Of
cruelty to animals ought not to be
formed in China. His reply was that
there was no such thing in China as
cruelty to animals; the Chinese we're
about the kindest people in the world
in their treatment Of them.

HICKS FOR JULY

Rev. Irl L. Hicks, the weather fore.
caster, made pretty good prediction Of
the first half Of July. He prognosticated
that the first half Of the month would be
similar to the first half Of June, with
high temperature and storms of much
violence from the I'd to Sth.
Tue next period, he predicts, will ex-
tend from the 18th to 18th, being central
on the 18th. It will be wise to figure on
these violent summer storms. A ten.
dency to continued cloudiness and un.
settled weather will follow this period,
with a possible rise of the barometer and
a change to cooler weather from the 10th
to the 18th.
The fourth period Of the month will be
general on the Goth and 2lst.
It will be characterized by an increase
in temperature and a return OF cloudiness
and thunder storms about the central
days. Many places will have storminess,
thunder, lightning and possibly danger
GUS winds at this and other July periods,
with but onlyrlight and scattering rains.
The fifth storm period will be central
on the 25th, extending from the 23d to
the 9th as is usual.

and Charles Henry Price, y years old,
suddenly stepped into big hole and
we're Immediately over their heads.
The other Hall boy made fruitless ef-
forts to reach them, but both went down
in moment and never came up. Mr.
Prices younger son, years old, fled
to clump Of trees crying with terror and
remained there until found by a search
ing party, late in the afternoon, almost
frightened to death. The Hall boy who
escaped gave the alarm when he reached
the nearest public road and John Tharp
organized a searching party which found

PLEASURES FOR sTAY-AT-H0MEs

For veal and woe we constantly aspire
to possessions that are never attained.
Summer woes us now to sylvan dell or
breezy mountain summit, to shimmering
lake or azure arched ocean. A thousand
delights follow in the train of her soft
Establishments, and the modern facilities
OF travel-its celebrity and comparative in
expensiyeness- transformed simple
folk who once dwelt in quiet corners into
cosmopolities. The passion grows by
what it feeds upon.
But the army of those who are obliged
to refrain from any considerable vacation
is very large. There are invalids, or at
tendants upon such; mothers-the guar
dian angels Of the household-whoc could
not be induced to forsake their cherubs
for ever SO brief period; business folk to
whose affairs even slight absence might
prove perilous, and host Of toilers whose
slender means absolutely forbid such de-
lectable indulgence. These cannot visit
the colossal canyons, the high Alps, or
the fowery meads of Merry England.
What recourse is there?
1t may be answered: For many there
are nearby charms, in neglected hooks,
where for trifing expenditure, rich
harvest Of enjoyment and contentment
may be realized. The average urbanite
has little conception OF the extent of the
world Of pleasure at his very door-the
possibilities Of early morning and even
ing rambles, Of bits of river and park and
shady groves and streamlets.. Longfellow
sings Of the brook
Laugh Of the mountains-lyre'of bird and
tree,
Pomp OF the meadow mirror of the
morn.
And OF the few hours at the shore,
which most persons may secure at small
cost:
0 summer day beside the joyous sea!
/ Q summer day SO wonderful and
white.
But what for the shut-ins? The pleas
ures of Imagination may now be brought
into play, and the fancy be made to per-
form thoroughly legitimate function.
The salubrious morning and evening
hours may be employed in gratifying the
instinct of travel.-Ex.

BANKS MAY PAY INTEREST

A campaign will probably be begun in
this state to have all the banks pay in
terest on deposits, either those subject to
checks or to notification before with
drawal. Two opposition banks now
established at Harrington are already
paying interest, but nearly all the banks
of the saate are doing increasing business
without allowing any interest whatever.
The banks of Kent County, Md, appear
to have given the matter Of paying inter-
est on deposits a thorough trial, with
remarkable satisfactory results. The d.
rectors Of the Kent County Savings Bank,
at their semi-annual meeting, after pay
ing an interest of per cent. on all saw
ings accounts and all other expenses for
the past six months declared a semi
annual dividend of 8 per cent, and then
carried 1892 to undivided profits This
made the banks undivided profits about
