His First Earnings. “Jennie Graves is going to have just the loveliest set of furs for New Year’s!” said Carrie Gardner, as shq cacao home from a vi-sit “Her sister showed them to toe. I said I wished I had some like tltom; and she said she should thiuk you would get me some for a New Year’s present, too. The* Jennie and I would have something just alike, and that would be so nice! Can’t I have some, mamma? They are so cheap this year!” “Seems to me it was only last winter that papa got a new set of furs for his little daughter.” “Yes, I know. But they wern’t half so nice as these, and they’re getting to look shabby, too,” replied Carrie, with a disdainful look at the muff shostill held in her hand. “Why, I think they look very well,” said Mrs. Gardner. “They look shabby by the side of Jennie’s, anyway; and I want some new ones so bad! I never have as nice a time on New Year’s as the other girls do, anyway. They are almost all of them going off some where to spend the day, and I can’t go; and I do think I ought to have a nice present at least;” “Do you know why you do not enjoy Now Year’s as well as some of your schoolmates do, my little daughter?” said Mrs. Gardner. “1 think it is because you are frying to get all the happiness you can yourself, and do not try to add to others’ happiness. Turn over a new leaf this year, Carrie. Try to make others happy, and see if you \yll not have the happiest New Year’s Day you ever had.” “Can’t I have the furs, mamma? I cannot be happy without them.” “I think you can, little daughter, if you go to work in tiie right way. But we will not talk any moie about it now. I wish to make a call or two this afternoon, and it is about time. Would you like to go with me?” “Whereare you going, mamma?” “To call on a family by the name of Taylor, who are very poor. They have a little girl about your age who is lame. Her father is sick, and her mother has to support them all. The little girl is a very sweet child, and I think you will enjoy a visit to her.” In a little while Currie stood by the bedside of the little cripple- r ‘Do you have to lip right here all the whole time?” said Carry. “I should think you would get so tired you couldn’t stay here. I should want some one to carry me around out of doors, aud amuse me all the time.” “Mother hasn’t time to do that. I got along very well,” said the girl. “No,” said Mrs. Taylor, “poor Helen does suffer for lack of care I presume. But I do the best I can. 1 have been trying to earn money to buy her a wheel-chair, so she could wheel herself around a little: but it is useless trying, I guess. Fif teen dollars is a big sum for a poor woman to lay up, besides supporting her family.” A day or two after, during which time Carrie had - been unusually si lent and thoughtful, she came to her mother saying,— “Haveyou asked papa aboutget-. ting t hose furs for my.New Year's presi'ut-T” ■ Her rnotWr replied in the affir mative. “And what did he say? Will he get them, do you think, mamma ?” “I think perhaps he .will, jj if yon are a good girl." “Please, mamma, I would rather have the money it would cost to spend as I please, if papa would give it to me.” “What do you wish to buy with it ?” asked her mamma. “I want to get a chair for that poor little lame girl, mamma. I think she needs it a great deal worse than I need new furs. And, please, don’t you think I may have the money ? Her mother is so poor, it will be a long time before she can get it for her.” Carrie’s mother gladly consented, and so the chair was purchased; and on New Year’s Day, Carrie and her mother made another visit to the poor child’s home, taking with them the chair, together with some iks, papers and toys, which Car rie decided she could spare from Among her own playthings. Helen was so pleased with her presents, that she knew not howTo express her thankfulness; and her mother was as much gratified as she. h . % ■ Carrie felt hilly repaid for her self-denial as she witnessed their delight, and that evening said to her mother: “I do believe, mamma, this is the happiest New Year’s Day I have ever had. I have been so happy!” — WeUSpring. “Father, may I have a piece of ground for my very own ?” asked a bright boy ten years of age. His father looked much surprised. “Why do you wish a piece of ground, my son ?” “I would like to raise some pota toes, father.” “Potatoes! What will you do with them, Willie?” “Sell them, father, and send the money to the school in Cornwall where heathen hoys are educated-” The gentleman smiled at the boy’s eager face. “Hoeing pota toes is not easy work, Willie,” he said doubtfully. “I know that, sir, but I am not afraid, of work. It will make me stronglo know that L am helping some poor heathen boy to become a Christian.” Willie’s face was full of earnest- •ioss, and his father laid his hand rently on his head as he said, “You hall have the ground, my son, ■ mi do with it as you choose.” Willie went to school that morn- ng with a light little heart. He soot: told his plan to a little piay- n ite, and the two lads entered in to a partnership for the cultiva tion of the promised plot of land. It was a dry, hot summer, and the ground which Willie’s father gave him was very difficult to hoe. ft was full of upturned pieces of sod. The boys were not to be dis couraged in their good work, how ever. - Throwing aside their-coats, they toiled with a will, and the sod which gave them so much trouble proved their best friend in the end. It served to protect the growing potatoes from the fierce heat of the sun. The little plot devoted to charity yielded a fine crop, while many broad fields produced almost nothing. It was a proud moment in Willie’s life when he drove his wagon load of potatoes to market, and gave his first hard earnings to the Cornwall school. He afterwards became very rich, but he never forgot his boyish am bition to do good. William E. Dodge—for lie was the noble boy— will long be remembered for the many deeds of mercy with which his loug-and useful life was filled. —Exchange. BREWSTER’S BURIAL. A Fan ions Texas’s Singular Reqaest Fulfilled to the Letter. Speech on a Hat. The man who thinks it an easy task to write an editorial or to- make a speech .should make the ex periment The editor is always ready to pay for an attractive “lead er,” and the people willingly listen to any one who can address them acceptably. Not a few men who lire by manual labor envy those whose ability to write or speak se cures them a livelihood. If they would try either, the result might send them back to the work bench, sadder but wiser men. A Boston boy, while learning the carpenter’s trade, worked beside a journeyman who was always com plaining that fate had forced him to be a mechanic, though he had in him the making of an orator. He said that he asked for no easier task than to preach two sermons a week or to argue a case before a jury. The apprentice while pupil at th“ Boston Latin School, had belonged to a debating society. He knew by experience of many failures how hard it was to deliver a logical speech of even ten ■ minute dura tion. One morning when the journey man had uttered-iiis chronic com plaints, the boy Mid to him, “I will give you a new hat, if, taking that fora topic, yon will speak, upon it intelligently for ten minutes before the whole shop.” The offer was accepted and the trial was arranged for the “noon ing” of that day. During the fore noon the journeyman meditated his speech and at noon mounted a chair, amid the applause of his fel low-workmen. He began by talking about the antiquity, styles and uses of the hat, and for six minutes, spoke with fluency and to the point. -Then he hesitated, talked incoherently for a minute longer, and jumped down amid the laughter of his audience. Seven minutes speaking exhausted his knowledge of the subject and showed him that it is not an easy acquirement to be an orator. He never after had a word to say about the easy life of preachers. A Word About Beds. The remains of Col. H. Perry Brewster, late State Commissioner of Insurance, arrived at Galveston, from Austin, Texas, Dee. 31, and were buried at sea, in • accordance with the dying reqaest of the de ceased. Col Brewster served in the San Jacinto war; and was first Adjutant General of Texas, and served as Chief of Staff under Gen. Albert Sydney Johnson in the late war; passed his-Ufe on land, but was strongly Infatuated with a desire to be bnried at sea. He first made known his peculiar desires in this respect to his bosom friends, Gen. John M. Claiborne snd Col. Jack, while lying together under a tree just before the openingengagement of th“ battle of Shiloh. Afterward, •luring tiie progress of the war, he frequently repeated the request to several army friends. He said he lesired to be buried in sixty fat-h- misof waterat high meridian. His theory was that at that particular depth the pressure of the water was just sufficient density to keep the human body quietly upon the bot tom. Prior to his death in the city of Austin Sunday, Dec. 28, Judge Brewster repeated to his daughter his last wishes in regard t; the dis- position of his body. Miss Brews ter communicated with Gen. Clai borne and other friends of this city, and it was determined to carry out the last request of the father. Gov. I reland placed the little State steam er Hygiea at the disposal of Miss Brewster fertile purpose of carrying the body to sea. At 10 o’clock the remains, under military escort, were placed aboard the Hygiea and the last solemn travel to the sea began. The local ity selected for burial was a place where nine years ago the steamship Waco was burned, witli great loss of life. Many old army friends of the deceased accompanied the remains Miss Brewster, yielding to the en treaties of friends, parted forever from the remains of her honored fatner at the point of embarkation. The sea was veryrough, and the little steamer braved the waves un der the hand ortho, experienced pi lot. Several tugs and pilot boats ac companied, the fnneral boat, and the shipping in the harbor flew their flags at half mast. At exactly 12 o’clock, being well out at sea, Gen. Claiborne briefly recited the histo ry of his friend, and gently consign ed the casket to the water, which instantly sank beneath the waves of the angry gulf.

He am tellin’ de truf, ef < bber she wos spoke. What ever you do, doan come ter ray house an’ set a hroom up de wrong way, an’ let her stay dat way ober night.” Dick further strengthened his tes timony on the broom question by saying: “Ef you think dis ain't de truf, doan let man make pass at you wid a broom what bin settin’ up de wrong way ober night, kaze, ef you does, you gwine ter jail, sho’.” “Go to jail!” someone exclaimed. “Yasser, go ter jail!

People in health ought- to sleep on a not-too-sott mattress. The feather bed is not by any means a healthy one, nor, unless it be pat under the mattress, is it one that is conducive to sleep. The bed clothes should never be heavy, bat they oughtto be n aider down quilt is a in a but it is too hot for the ncriths. Paper quilts can now be had; and they are very excellent in their way. The pillows on bed should be particularly well arranged for comfort. One ought to be very large so as to quite support the shoulders, and it should be elas tic and not too yielding; it is an un comfortable feeling that of sinking in a pillow. Carpets covering the entire floor are no longer fashionable. When the floor is not of fine polished wood or handsomely painted it is covered with a good quality of Chinese mat ting, which is now bronght oat in artistic shades of red, bine, yel low and Oriental mixtures, and cov ered with rags, Oriental, French or American. For several years California’s wheat crop has been more valuable than her yield of gold. Now it seems likely that the fruit crop will soon surpass, in value that of the wheat Fry iu as little lard as possible. An old lady, who had lived many years very, happily with her hus- oand, accounted for it by saying, “You see, I always feed aim well. .Vaen A was young 1 won nis heart, ami now I am old I have won ins siomacii, and so lie is never cross; and therefore we live happily to gether.” Pretty crocheted holders for feather dusters are made in tiie shape of a shield, with a loop,fast en ed to one side of the broad end.

I’-oinmend me to the old-fashioned double dish of earVhen ware; meat on the tripod, prKitoes underneath, and the pudding rising up to sb .re the luxury of the rich, brown gra vy.” The beverage of the Orient is tea, of which there are scores of kinds. It is served several times a day at tbe hotels, and in the stores of China and 3apan, as a neces sary hospitality, whether you pur chase or not. Mocha coffee answers the same purpose throughout the entire Levant and Greece, being served in very tiny caps. Many great cooks make extra trouble in preparing a force-meat stuffing for turkey, of veal, ham, ba con, onions, potatoes or bread crumbs, aud all sorta-of things. But the ordinary, old-fashioned stuffing for a turkey is generally liked the best. Take the soft part of good, light bread (not the crust), and do not wet it as is usually done, hat rub it dry and fine, and work into it a piece of butter the size of an egg. Season with salt, pepper and summer savory. Add to this a doz en or more oysters, whole, and it will be very flue. Some good cooks, who are ruled by taste, and not by books, add to a stuffing like the above large chestnuts, boiled. The chestnuts are put on a fire in a saucepan or spider to burst the skins; they are then boiled in very salt water or stock, then mixed with the stuffing whole. Serve with a chestnut sauce.

Two gentlemen are walking up the street engaged in a lively con versation. “Since yon have some notion of marrying,” said one, “why don't yon take Marguerite, your sister’s charming friend ?

Two persons met and one says: “Say, did you hear that story to-day abou t 288 ?” “No,” answered the other excitedly, “what is it?” “Oh, it’s too gross en tirely,” replied his companion in a mournful voice, “Tell away,” re sumed the first, “and I’ll try to stand it” “Well,” exclaimed his friend “144 is one gross, and 288 is two gross, isn’t it?” M»re Points Than a A Pennsylvania magistrate has decided that a barbed wire fence is ■ot a legal fence. Well, if that kind of a fence hasn’t all the points of the law and the compass on it, it’s because the law and the compass have been working overtime to get new points. It is probable that that magistrate that made that de cision that this item refers to never climbed that kind of a fence.

There are well-meaning people in the world who seem to believe that the exercise ol hospitality demands a. perpetual making of excuses They weary their guest by depre-. ciating what they offer him. He would fain extract all possible good from his visit, thankfully enjoy all that is provided, and thrust all de ficiencies out of sight, but they will not let him. Usually the better their hospitable offerings, the more profuse their apologies. The guest, chilled from a long drive enters a cozy room, and as he thaws out before a glowing fire, congratulates himself that he has fonnd perfect comfort; but the host interposes an excuse for the miser able fire, as he terms it, and goes in to distressing details concerning the obstinacy of his wood or coaL The guest is escorted to the dining room, where, enhanced by snowy cloth and glittering ware, a goodly array of eatables tempt the palate, and commit him to a most hearty response to the invitation to return thanks. Buthesearcely pronoun ces “amen” ere he is delnged with excuses. The host laments over the toughness of the juicy steak, and the hostess regrets that her golden brown biscuit are burned, and her amber coffee is muddy, and so on to the end of the chapter. The best hospitality is gentle and unobtrusive, and refrains from tire some apologies. It assumes that the host has done all that he is able to do to cordially welcome his guest and that henee, there is nothing to be apologized for. .If there is some mishap or unavoidable delinqnency which loudly calls for an exense, it is mentioned briefly and dismissed. This highest type of hospitality brings such charms of personal presence and thought, such treas ures of brain, sonl and heart to the feast, that even, though the steak happeustobe tough, the bis cuit horned, and the coffee muddy, the guest will swallow them all un- heedingly, and believe that he sat at % banquet fit for gods.

Proctor, the noted lecturer on the science of the stars, thus pats a flea in the world’s ear: “The fears expressed by some as tronomers that oar earth will be damaged by comets are not alto gether groundless.
