Mamma the Baby.

The naming Of a baby is considered
important even among people whom
we are apt to regard as uncivilized
And, curiously enough, these very
folk contrive to avoid the arguments
that so often ensue when father and
mother disagree over whether the lit
tie stranger shall be called Jack OF
Marmaduke, Priscilla or Jane.
The Mahometan father and mother
each write the choice Of name on q
slip Of paper and place both In the
Koran. Whichever slip is drawn first
Is the name given to the child.
A pretty Egyptian custom is to light
three candles, naming each after a
god or some exalted parsonage. The
child is called after the candle which
burns longest.
Hindu mothers name their children,
paterfamilias not having a word to
say in the matter. The naming cere.
mony usually takes place when the
baby is about IL days old, and flower
name is usually chosen.
Chinese girls are simply numbered
one, two, or three, until they reach
years Of discretion, when they are al
lowed to choose a name for them.
selves. The boys, however, are given
a temporary name until they are 20,
when pa decides what magnificent ap-
pellation they shall rejoice in for the
rest Of their lives.-N. Y. Weekly.

Ignorance Of the Bible.

Biblical illusions, which permeate
our literature, touch no responsive
chord in the majority of college stu
dents nowadays, writes Prof. w. L.
Cross, in Education. Though some Of
them are fairly familiar with names
like Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Samson,
David and Daniel, very few know any
thing about the lives Of these men as
related in the scriptures. Not long
ago, to recall an extreme case, not one
Of 40 students under my instruction
could quite place Judas Iscariot; and a
venerable colleague of mine discov-
cred Jew among the seniors who had
never heard Of Moses. To lift the bur-
den of this ignorance, several colleges
have recently incorporated parts Of
the Old Testament into their most
elementary courses In English with
great success from the standpoint
both of the student and of the instruc-
tor. But knowledge of the Bible OBJ.
viously belongs to an earlier stage
than this. 1t is q pity that political
and religious considerations stand In
the way OF introducing into the pub
lie schools an available body Of splen-
did literature. Fortunately politics
and prejudice cannot hamper many OF
the large preparatory schools.

A Youngsters outspokenness That
Taught Grandpa a Lesson.

There is a very well-known man In
Brooklyn who II particularly proud
Of his grandson, q bright boy Of four
years and a few months. But. like
all fond grandpas, he believed teas.
Ing amusing to the child as well az
to himself-and he recently received
the shock he deserved. The little lad
was playing 4ndustriously with q doll
when the proud grandpa said:
my! playing with a doll-why your
name must be Susie-not Ralph"
No word from the boy. who kept
right on playing with the doll.
Susie" said the grandpa. Just rush
Ing to his fate, do you like dolls?"
The boy moved perceptibly. but
chung to the doll.
Dear little susie-you used to be
a boy"
The boy lifted his head indignant.
ly and with deep pathos, said: Grand
pa, I hate to tell you SO, but you're a
D. fool"
Great was the CONSERVATION Of the
grandfather and amazement Of the
mother, who tragically ordered the boy
to his room. while she called atten-
ton to the tears that rolled down her
cheeks at such q fearful offense. FL
nally she told the little fellow that he
might be forgiven If he begged his
grandpa's pardon. But the boy be-
lleved his grandpa the offender and
said so. His mother sternly read him
lesson against profanity, and espe-
cially about disrespect to grandpar-
ents. The little fellow was touched,
and going over to his grandpa said,
compromisingly:
II am sorry I called you D.
fool-but il I cannot call you a fool
can I call you a lemon?"
Hereafter grandpa will call Ralph
by his right nams.-Brooklyn Eagle.

The Pics of Brittany.

Brittany is all right" the Travelled
man said, cautiously, but beware of
the pigs there"
He had still an hour before the
steamer started, and he resumed:
"The Breton pig is not fat and indo-
lent like ours. He is as lean and fiery
as a wolf, and twice woolfs size.
All over Brittany you see him, swag-
gering up and down the white roads,
in search of roots, berries. ftogs, any
thing-for he must forage for himself
his master never feeds him. Step
out of his way, or he will snarl and
leap at you.

Sometimes they fall asleep beside the

Prosperity and the E eetIOn

Both candidates are pledged to work persistently for tariff revision and for the regulation of trusts, and particu- larly of interstate railroads. botn claim to be the advance agents of prosperity, and yet both are in honor bound to seek legislation that will cause certain lines of business to hes itate. Tariff protected interests will wait to see what the new tariff is to be- and big corporate enterprises will naturally desire to see how and to what extent they are to be regulated.
 As one branch of Congress will re- main in republican hands, it is difficult to see how prosperity will be au- yanced by the election of one candi- date over the other Congress VIII make the new tariff and it, too, will pass the new laws governing inter- state corporations. Neither candidate IS. therefore, prosperity's own.
 But just as soon as the tariff is re- yised and the new corporation law is passed the country should become prosperous. General business should become normal, and no doubt it will Doubtless this prosperity that is to come will to some extent be discount ed, so that if good crops are harvested next year, normal activity and plus- perity can be fully restored. All this seems to be coming in the new year. Nothing can limit it's coming unless it be unexpectedly poor crops next year.

OUR PRESIDENTS DOMESTIC.

From the New York Press.
 / Is marriage good for statesmen? Dis- raeli said no, but then Dizzy unbur- dened himself of more than one foolish utterance. Certainly, in this country, the answer is yes Almost all the men who have been at the head of affairs in na- tional or state politics in the last two or three decades have been benedcts. Most of the Presidents since the war have had not only wives but children. President Roosevelt, of course, was the head of large family when he entered the White House. President Mckinley was mar ried, though his children did not survive infancy President Cleveland was a hus- band and father when he began his sec- ond term. He etarted his first term as a bachelor, but it did not take him long to learn the disadvantages of single life in Washington. President Harrison had not only wife and children, but a grand child President Arthur was a widower, but his children lived in the White House with him. President Garfield was fam fly man. President Hayes was married. So was President Grant. President John son had wife. In fact, with the excep- ton of the short time Grover Cleveland was in the office before his marriage, only one President, James Buchanan, had been a bachelor Four of the Presidents-Ty- Ter, Fillmore Benjamin Harrison and Roc oCgevelt--marred twice.
