But I suppose this is progress, and it
lakes more learning to do this genera

be loaded heavier, t’obo wouldn’t take

there would bo a reform in spelling,

says that when she was a child (that was a
iongtimo ago) an old-fashioned carpenter
was working for her father, and she
wanted to play with tho footndzo nnd
the carpenter said aho might if sho could
spell it. Sho tried several ways, but
he said no, that tho way to spell adze
was a d izzard e.
But oar little clmps are happy now.
They go a milo and a half to school and

An Author’. Peculiar Way.
[London World.]
For tho lifo of him, Stepniak. could
not work regularly and methodically n3,
for instanco, Anthony Trollope was
won't to work. I-ikc nil men of nervous
temperament, ho is moro in the vein at
some times than at others, and, though
the reverse of a desultory worker, he
writca by fits nnd starts. But tho fits
are of frequent occurrence, nnd when
he finds ono coming on ho places him
self under wlmt ho calls tho regirno
littcraire. He goes to bed at midnight,
rises at 2, nnd plies his pen without
surceaso — savo for refreshment,
which ho tastes as ho writes—
until noon. Then ho Bleops
for about threo hours, when ho again
sets to work, und, until midnight, gives
himself only ono or two short spells of
rest. This goes on for fivo or six days a
week, or until tho task ho has set hi m-
self is accomplished; nnd while it is in
progress he drinks enormous quantities
of lea and colfco, ono aa black as tho other.
hike all conscientious men of artistic
feeling, ho does not find writing easy.
Ho writes slowly and polishes with
poetic care; thcro are whole chapter of
hia “Underground Russia” which were
written ami rewritten six times, nud
even then sent to the printer with re
luctance, so far from perfection did they
tern.
Wbal Hi. Baby Was Thinking.

Mrs. Fogg—As I camoby the station

It was amusing to see tho little thing
waich the locoinotivo os it rushed past
and until It was out of sight. I won
der what tho little darling was think

Hogg—'That depends. If it was a girl,
the was thinking “splendid,” “just too
lovely for anything,” or something of
that sort. If it was a boy, ho might
hAve been, mentally constructing a
smoke-consumer or patent coupler, but
probably was considering whether it
was best to invest in tho road's com

third mortgago bonds, its equipment
