Cold fish and cold meat, hahn especially,

when Jenny Lind Saw Niagara.

From Christian Science Monitor
A piece of verse by Elizabeth Stuart
Phelps Ward records an incident which
happened when Jenny Lind was visit

public and not only praise of the singer.
but friendship for the noble woman had
grown strong among the Americans. it
was asked:
How honor her? BY what fair sight or
way?
Show her Niagara on a rainbow day.
So she is shown among a curious null
titude approaching this marvel of mar

of the woman. meeting as IT were in
happy praise of God. She gazed awe

Located in London.

London Correspondence New York Sun.
Among the queer trades of London. to
be discovered in the new issue of Kelly's
London Directory, is one which had a
deep personal interest for the youth Of
all nations.
The birch rod maker has advertised
his abode. In large building in Red
Lion Square. Holborn, which has the
appearance Of a private dwelling rather
than the fount of Juvenile chastisement.
orders are executed for hundreds of
thousands Of birch rods guaranteed to
give entire satisfaction to the schoolmas-
ter.
During the year birch rods are dis
patched to all corners of the earth, and
the sterling qualities are felt in all coun-
tries. Though the industry thrives omi-
nously, there is some consolation for the
schoolboy in the fact that there Is no
sign Of a birch rod boom
The manufacturers have observed a
conservative policy, and the old style Of
a thin handle and a set number Of birch
twfgs punched at the end has survived.
