The idols of history and tradition
are being smashed right and left in
our material day.
Even granting Bunf home's asser
tiou that
Art stopped short in the cultivated eourt-
Of the Empress Josephine,
it is evident that the San of our ae
caraiito iDfo. • :^tion is still increasing
William Tell i. u been denied tho
poor boo i of place in history; even
the authenticity of Mother Goose
has been impugned. And now comes
Prince Roland Bonaparte and says
that some indefinite Chinaman land
ed in America long before the Colum
4
bus family had produced their favor
ite *
son.
At this rate the discoverer of Arner
ica will soon become like Mrs- Harris,
of whom tbei 1 t > at Sairey Gamp
remarked that sho ‘‘didn't believe
that there was no such a person."
Prince Bonaparte bases his Mon
golian theory upon the fact that an
ancient Mexican mounment is engrav
ed with a certain symbol common in
China as expressing the idea of pbysi
cal perfection It resembles an el
ongated letu - - ’aid ou its side, and
intersected by.-.; uorizontal line.
Herbert Spencer notes the fact
that certain picture writings having
resorce to conceptions of Deity or to
great natural laws are frequently
seen to be common, though found in
the remains of distinct and separate
races. This particular symbol can be
traced without difficulty iD its Ameri
can development till we find it to
day the type of the highest ambition
in the life of many men. In its pie
sent modified shame—§—it is recog
nizod as the most powerful fetich
known to our civilization. Moreover,
it has been called ‘‘Almighty’’ by no
less careful a thinker and antiquary
than Washington Irving, thus recall
ing the old idea &f diviaity.
The Chinese claim iB thus shown
to be shadowy and inconsequent.
Let Prince Bonaparte try again.

Treatment for Hoe Stings.
It is a common mistake to suppose that
an angry bee is certain to sting on alight¬
ing upon a human hand. .On the con¬
trary, she will always examine the skin
very carefully first with the palpi— very
delicate and nervous feeling organs,
wh55h are situated near tho sting. It
may seem that she stings at once, and
without care or reflection; but a bee can
do a great deal in a very short space of
time, in proof of which it may be men¬
tioned that “she can flap her wings more
than 400 times per second, and that each
flap involves the extension and contrac¬
tion, through a nerve impulse, of the
muscles employed in the wing move¬
ments.” This being Die case, as Mr.
Cheshire says, “we shall see at once that
tho ‘no time’ difficulty is removed.”
When a person lias been stung by a bee,
he should remove the sting immediately,
“if possible, by the nail, running it in
the direction opposite to that by which
it has entered.” On no account lot him
take hold of the sting with Iris thumb
and finger or a forceps, for then ho will
probably squeeze more of the virus into
the wound from the poison bag, which
is generally left attached to the sting.
Although tho virus of a bee sting is a
strong acid, it does not always follow
that an alkali will cure it. Much depends
upon [the temperament and constitution
of tho patient, and while arnica mon-
tana and ledum palustro will give relief
in many cases, in others they are in¬
jurious. Wo may discuss the subject of
bee stings by giving the young beekeeper
two pieces of comfort—the first, that at
swarming times bees are nearly always
in an exceedingly good temper; the sec¬
ond, that each time he is stung ho will
probably become less susceptible to the
effects of bee poison.—Saturday Review.

IN THE OFFING.
A ghostly ship sails on a ghostly moo.
And tears afar an anxious company,
Whoso dreams, whose hopes, whose constant
longings yearn
For some fair port from which no ship* return—
Some quiet haven undisturbed by strife
Of vckIm; surges from our storm vexed life-
wind driven surges from our wind swept life.
My longing heart sails with them as they go,
Anxious as they, and heavy with their woe;
Where is the peaceful shore we long to find—
The waves are stormy and the path is blind—
The distant sky shuts in the distant sea—
What star of promise holds the dark for met
What star of promise bolds the dork for thee I
Answer, stern pilot of this phantom sail—
Const thou be sure thy compass will not fail!
—Louise Chandler Moulton In Youth’s Compan¬
ion.

{Cnrepealed English Laws.
Among unrepealed acts of parliament
in England stand the following gems:
Persons tending to use witchcraft, punish¬ by a
law enacted under George II, are
able by imprisonment. Those practicing
palmistry are to be treated as vagabonds
and punished accordingly. By a law
enacted in the time of Charles I meetings
of people outside their own parishes, on
Sundays, for any sports or pastimes
whatever, are prohibited under penalty
of a fine of three shillings and three
hours in the publio stocks. Any person
disbelieving the doctrines of the Estab¬
lished church and refusing to have bis
children baptized or to partake of the
communion may, by a law of Queen
Elizabeth, be committed to prison.—Chi¬
