MY STOLEN RIDE.
two of three years ago, when I
was a iittler boy than I am now, I
thought nothing wa% much nicer
than a ride on the horse-cars, espe
dally if I was sent off somewhere
Slone bn an effand: Thai made me
feel very large and oid.
.. Wrteday when I was seritdown to
Aqnt Ph.oelite’s to get a pattern for
mamma, the conductor forgot to
take my five cents. I had it all
ready in my hand, hut he never
looked .my way at all,
I didn’t get five cents to spend as
often as I wanted it, and it came in
to toy head that I could have that
fof candy:
“i'he conductor ought to look out
for ljis fare; and if he doesn’t I’ve a
good right to keep it,” I said to my
self.■ Of course I know better, but I
wanted the camly so!
There was a boy I knew on the
car. At least I knew him a little
He had just come to live on our
street. Ilia name was Willy Lor
Ing. He was "some larger than I, a
nice hoy. 1 wondered if he saw the
conductor pass me by, and what he
Would think about it.
Pretty ftooll I got off *he cat. Willy
Jjijt dlf. at the sriri > phi ■!. I want
ed to get acquainted and be good
friends with him, so 1 said, ‘-Come
into filestore witli me, and I’ll treat.
I got my ride for nothing this
time.”
‘‘You did? How’s that?” Willy-
asked, staring hard at me.
“The Conductor didn’t see me-
home on, and we’ll have some can-
tR-i.”
I Xlid not forget very soon how
Willy looked at me.
“Sold yourself cheap, didn’t you?
I would not be a thief for only five
cents. No, I thank you; I don’t
c:.re for any of your candy,” hesaid.
He turned and ran down the next
street and left me standing there, O,
itow ashamed!
“A thief for only five cents!’’
“Sold myself cheap?” Who bought
me? It couldn’t be anybody but Sa
tan. I kept thinking it over, all the
why home, and all the evening till I
Went to lied, so 1 couldn’t play at
all.
“.Mamma, what is stealing?” I
asked, as she was tucking me up in
bod.
“Don’t you know?” she asked.
“But I want you to tell me just
what you think it is,” I said.
“I think it is taking what does
not belong to you,” mamma said.
The ride on the horse-car certain
ly didn’t belong to me till I paid for
it. I didn’t put down the track, nor
buy the horses, nor make the car.
’/lied I stole, I was just what Willy
Loring said: "A thief tor only five
Cents.”"
I thought I should never get to
sleep. 1 lay awake, tumbling and
tossing, about five or six hours. At
any rate, it seemed that long. But
I dropped off at last, and slept till
broad daylight.
I wi ke with a bad feeling. I hated
to meet papa atbreaktast, though 1
knew he didn’t think of such a
thing as my being a thief. I didn’t
get rid of my iniserabte feelings
that day nor the next. I was sick
every time I thought of what Willy
Coring said.
Thuyday night papa got home
early, Jrtd we were sitting alone by
the parlor fire. He looked so kind
and good that I gathered all my
courage, and asked, “Papa, what
again. , - . i ,.
Willy didn’t speak fof a minute,
Then he said, “Let’s go down by th*
park and have a game of hopscotch-

SWEEP THE CORNERS.
“Did you sweep the corners?”
“Now toother; what is the uite of
being so particular? THe parlor
looks just as n*ce fts it can look.
Who’s going to move sofiis .and ta
bles and poke behind the piano to
see if there’s a few grains of dust
* here.”
“Have you never swept the cor
ners since you volunteered to take
entire charge of the parlor, Amy?
You. know 1 have been shut Up in
ny room, and have trusted entirely
t<> you!”
“Not exactly! Mrs. Strongmore,
\ ho lectures so delightfully, you
know, says women waste so much
lime in pottering. She says it
is a great tiling to learn just how
much housework and sewing is
necessary to enable one to get
rloiig, and then we shall savo the
the rest of the time for higher pur
suits, and that is so much gain.”
“Perhaps, if it really saves time;
t ii- sie how it is in this case.
Move that stand; detir, and put your
broom in that corner.”
“Why, mother, there are myriads
>f black, fuzzy little things crawl-
ny away, and—why, it’s too had,
hey have eaten all the pattern off
if that corner of our pretty carpet.”
“That’s what I feared. It. is the
Buffalo moth, or carpet bug, and
having once made a lodgment they
will run along every seam in the
carpet. Nothing can save it but
having it taken up and thoroughly
cleansed. It is too bad, but it never
would have happened if you had
wept the corners faith fully. Which
way do you think would have sav-
d the most time?”
“Mother, I was disgraced to-day.
T wore my new cambric to the Sun-
lay-school picnic, and when I was
swinging one of the children, the
whole sleeve ripped right down and
left my arm bare. It was especially
nortifying because I hadjusc been
telling the girls how I had made it
all myself on my new machine.”
“Softly, my dear, did you take a
needle and fasten all the threads as
I suggested ?”
“Why, no; that would have taken
too much time and I wanted to
make the whole dress in two days,
which I did.”
“Did you save much time by that
proceeding?”
“No, mother, of course not; I see
what yon mean. It’s another case
of not sweepingeorners, I suppose?”
“My dear child, I wish I could im
press upon you now the importance
of doing things thoroughly, and not
slighting the parts of work that do
not show at first sight; duty anc
policy are alike concerned in faith-
ulness to the corners.
“My gardner made me a flower
bed on the lawn once, but, I had
hardly got it filled with flowers
when the quick grass came up so
thickly between them that it took
more time than I had to spare to
pull it out, and when I at last had
recourse to him, he acknowledged
hat he had only turned the sod
over, not taking time to pick it out.
Last spring there was a terrible
accident in New York. A great
building filled' with people gave

a car-eonduetor, and didn’t know and property. Why ? Because some-
his name, nor anything about him,
only that he had a sear on his face
close to the corner of his eye?”
Of course papa asked what I want
ed to see the conductor for, and fi
lially got the whole story. I was
rather glad to tell him for I thought
he would help me out of my troub
le.
And he did. He didn’t scold, nor
even stare at me, as Willy Loring
did, ns if he’d never think of me as
a decent kind of a boy again. He
put his arm around me, and wiped
my tears, for I could’nt keep from
.crying some, and said: “I’m very
sure my dear boy will never do such
a thing again.”
Then he gave me ten cents, and
told me to ride down at just the
rrr-o V-tT <*?<! that otner day, and
: y i should see the same
< . : r, :,r.d then I could give
Lun the five cents (I had kept it; I
did not buy any candy after all). If
I didn’t see that conductor he told
on to Ihe station at the
«’/ ..to road, and give it to the
w*'h the little office. He would
..* Jw which was the right man by
-thf^ar.
l rode-dowa t^e next day, and
the conductor was the very same;
so I didn’t have to go down to the
office. I was glad of that. •
But Willy Loring never saw me
when I passed hinf, for a good ma
ny days after that At last I went
__ up"to him one day, and said, “You
body had not been careful of ‘lie
corners, the unseen parts of the
building, where the strain came;
and this want of faithfulness ren
dered the whole thing unsafe.
“Two months before that, occurr
ed the destruction of the Tay bridge,
in Scotland, which thrilled the pub
lic with indignation; a whole train
of cars, with their crowd of living
freight, precipitated at once into
the raging flood and disappeared,
because of the unfaithfulness of the
contractors and workmen and ev
ery one concerned, in those parts of
the work whose unsoundness could
not be detected except by actual
experiment and failure.
And when we, come to things not
tangible, the principle is just'.
The same carelessness about cor
ners; the out-of-the-way trivialities
of school-bov lessons have some
times cost a man his standing and
success in life. Have you forgotten
a certain ‘girl graduate’ whose per
centage was wofnlly lowered by the.
abseuee of capitals and commas in
an examination in metaphysics?
There are young men and young
women to-day who are deliberate
ly laying the foundation of future
wretchedness and failure by neglect
of the little corners, of habits of
strict honesty, perfect truthfulness,
making the most of minutes, etc.

Short Rules for Long Comfort at Home.
FOR THE LITTLE ONES.
I hope you have a small blank
hook in which yon will copy them
for yourselves:
Put self last.
Be prompt at every meal.
Take little annoyances out of the
way.
When any good happens to any
one, rejoice.
When any one suffers, drop a
word of sympathy.
Tell of your own faults rather
than those of others.
Have a place for everything, and
•verything in its place.
Hide your own troubles, but
,-atch to help others out of theirs.
Take hold of the knob, and shut
.•ithout slamming every door.
If the door squeaks, apply a
iropof oil at once.
Never interrupt any conversation,
iut wait patiently your turn to
speak.
Look for beauty in everything,
and take a cheerful view of every
event;
* Caretully clean the mud and snow
from your feet before entering the
house.
Always speak politely and kindly.
When inclined to give an angry
answer, press your lips together and
say the alphabet.
When pained by an unkind word
or deed, ask yourselt, “Have I never
done as ill, and desired forgive
ness ?”
Lippincott’s Magazine for Octo
ber opens with a well-writen article
by E. G. Beynolds, describing the
methods of sheep-raising in Texas,
and the incidental experiences of
ranchlife in that section. A couple
of travelling sketches—“ In a Salt-
Mine,” by Margery Deane, and
‘Roughing it in Palestine,” by Chas.
Wood —are the usual type, while
‘Turtiing on the Outer Reef,” by C.
F. Holder, and “The Second Rank,”
by Felix Oswald, mingle anecdote
with information and discussion on
topics conected with natural history,
“the Philosophy of the Short-Story,”
by Brander Matthews, is the liter
ary article of the number,—a bone
thrown to the critics,—while female
readers will find a number of impor
tant details on the subject of dress
making in Theodore Child’s ac
count of the great Parisian cou
turiers. There is also a short ac
count of General Grant’s- visit to
Frankfort, with other minor papers.
Among the stories, “Authony Gal-
vert Brown,” by P. Doming, is in
the quaint and simple style charac
teristic of the author; “The Eye of
a Needle,” by Sophie Clover but
from rural life; and “The Lady
Lawyers’s First Client,” a story- in
two parts, by Thomas Wharton, is
strictly urban and has the piquancy
suggested by its title.

The Secretary of the Treasury is
determined that no delay shall be

The commanding officer of revenue
cutters plying on Lake Ontario and

pose of watching the introduction
of refugees and their baggage by
merchant vessels on the lake and

vessels to the dearest local authori

nuecutters the commanding officer
of all the cutters has been directed-
to proceed with his crew to the
nearest marine hospital station for
the purpose of having them vacci

An Orderly Revolution.
The populace of Philippopollis, the
Capital of Roumelia, almost to a
man rose in rebellion September
17th, seized the Governor General,-
deposed the Government and pro
claimed a Union with Bulgaria. The
provincial government was estab
lished. The revolt was so well
planned that no disorder or blood
shed occurred, everybody being in
sympathy with the movement, ex
cept ihe Government officials. The
foreigners in the city are perfectly
safe from harm, as is also the prop
erty of foreign residents. Immedi
ately after the organization of the
provincial Government the militia
were 3worn in, taking the oath of
allegiance of Prince Alexander, of
Bulgaria. It is generally believed in
diplomatic circles that Russia ar
ranged the programme of the ris
ing, and suggested the union with
Bulgaria. No definite statement
can now be made as to what action
the signatory powers to the treaty
of Berlin will take respecting the
matter.
Eastern Roumelia was created by
the Congress of Berlin in 1878 and
was given an automatic govern
ment, though forming an integral
part of the Turkish empire. The
Governor General was appointed
by the Porte, subject to the approv
al of the treaty powers.
The insurgents, acting under the
orders of the Provincial Govern
ment, have occupied all the strate
gic points on the Turkish frontier,
blown up all the bridges which
would likely be used by a force ad
vancing from Turkey to the relief of
the deposed Government, and des
troyed the telegraph wires leading
into Turkey.
The Greatest Engineering Feat Yet.
The French naval authorities and
Comte De Lessep3 have actually
given countenance to a plan for
constructing a ship canal from the
British Channel to the Mediterrane
an Sea; the proposed water-way
be large enough and deep
enough to admit the passage
of the largest ironclads. The
French Admiralty say that the
scheme is feasible, and would be
very desirable, though it would
cost a great deal of money. The
proposition involves making use
of the Seine, Loire, and other
French rivers, the outlet being near
Marseilles. Should such a water
course ever be completed, it would
give the commerce of the Mediter
ranean and the East to France, and
would be a serious blow at England’s
maritime supremacy. Another
gigantic scheme is also on the tapis.
It is to connect the- Caspian Sea
with the Persian Gulf by way of the
valley of the Euphrates. This would
make Asia an island, and would
change the tides of travel and busi
ness thoughout the eastern world.
There are vast improvements yet to
be made upon this planet of ours.
What a pity we cannot go to sleep
and wake up a century hence and
see the changes which will have
taken place dining that time.
The Soble Red Had.
The -efgeant-at-Armj of the
House, Mr. Leedom, -JvYfor was in
charge of the Holman Indian Com
mittee, comes baek to Washington
city with various novel views of the
Indiati fftrie.- Red. Cloud he believes
to be a loafer told eontoitutioVial
des'dbeti't; who Is the only one of all
the chiefs the 'iotom’ittee has visit
ed that steadily refuses id allow his
children to attend school and take
on the ways of civilization. Red
Cloud tells his* people that as long
i«» tee giieid Father knows that they
are nnabie to support themselves,
they will he provided Wlfn rations;
but if they become self-supporting,
they will receive no more help.
When it was suggested to him that
His meil should learn to farm, he
said; “Our farmer (their instruct
or iff agfjenitrife), Is not rtf the right
kind. Me Comeg here and wants
the Great Father to send rs
white meri to plant our corn, hoe it,
reap it and put in barns, which they
should build for us. We are warri
ors and don’t work; squaws have to
work.” Mr. Leedom says the com
fbittee ha? a number of reforms in
Indian g'dvefrttoent to commend.
The general tenor of tfieto all will
be to treat the Indians like children
ancf govern them accordingly; to
teach them to farm and earn their
own living, but in the meantime to
care for them whenever they are
unable to do so themselves.
Another Great Work.
The project to build a tunnal un
der the Straits of Messina, to con
nect Itally with the Isle of Sicily,
will probably Be set aside In favor
of a bridge, which, wh'en complet
ed, will be a marvel of mechanical
skill, superior to anything of the
kind in the world. At the nearest
points, Italy is separated from Sicily
by a channel two miles wide; but
as the depth of the water here is
over five hundred fathoms, the
new bridge has Been located in
shallow water where the length
will be over two miles and a half.
The plan of this gigantic structure
involves four piers connected by
spans of five-eights of*a mile in
length, the two shore arche3 having
half the span of three central ones.
This,of course, will be a railway
bridge, and will make all parts of
Sicily accessible to the traveler. In
ancient times this island was noted
for its fertility and wealth, and
there seems a possibility, under the
wise and benign government which
now has its seat at Rome, that it
may regain some of its old glory.—

The Number of the Stars.
Dr. Peters of Rochester is engaged
in cataloguing the stars. He has
recently added six thousand to the
old charts of the heavens. His cata
logues show over one hundred thou
sand stars, which is understood to be
the greatest collection in the world.
Of coarse this vast total represent
as it were only a few drops com
pared with the water in the ocean.
It is in thinking of the immensi
ty or' the universe that we realize
the limitation of the human mind.
Each star is but as a grain of sand
on the floor of all the oceans of the
world. We comprehend neither
Time or Space, the Infinite or-the
Absolute. If Doctor Peters were to
live a thousand years, and he were
to catalogue a star every second, he
would not have even begun his task.
As for comets, in our solar system
alone they are more numerous than
all the fish that are in the waters
which cover oar globe-Demorest’s
