An astronomical lrcturor recently gave
good advice to artisls and poets. When
artists paint the moon, they should not
make it too large. Sometimes the moon
is represented with its horns (smiting
downward. The horns, of course, must
always point away from the sun. When
poets talk about moonlight, they should
lie sure that tint moon (lid actually shine
on the night in question. The author of
the well-known poem on the Imrinl of
Sir John Moore has fallen into this error.

Warmed thc Thermometer.
Over in the treasury a story is told at
tho expense of a high official. The air in
the room was rather chilly, but the clerks
were found busily at work in their light
office coats. They had warmed tho bull)
of the thermometer tipto s*venty-flvc,and
awaited developments. The official re
marked that it wns cold and shivered and
looked uneasily about the room. A clerk
leisurely glanced Ht the thermometer and
saw it was very comfortable. Thu official
looked and saw nnd wondered.
“I think I must have a chill," ho said,
but lie went to his desk.
Pretty soon thu clerk in front nf him
deliberately pulled off his coHt and re
sumed work.
“I am sure I must have a chill,” again
remarked the official, but every clerk had
his nose down to business, anti hadn't
time to answer.
“Good heavens!" exclaimed another In
a loud uaidc, pulling off his coat.
The official, still muffled in his over
coat aud shivering, went over again and
looked at thu thermojnetcr. A clerk
had in thc menntiiuu applied tin- lighted
end of a cigar to the bulb, and thu mer
cury hail jum|H'd to eighty.
“Dear me!" said thc ofiicinl, “I'm afraid
I’m going to bo sick." After a little he
pulled on his gloves aud started for home,
took quinine ami went to bed. When he

Got the Job.
The other morning a liny about four
teen years of age knocked at the door of n
house on Brush street, and asked thu
woman if she didn’t want tho snow
cleaned off the walk.
“How much?" she cautiously inquired.
"Thirty cents."
“I won’t pay it. If you want to do the
work for ten cents von can go ahead."
He leaned on the handle of his snow
shovel and looked thoughtful, and she
finally queried:
"Well, what do you say?"
“It’s just as that woman around the
corner told me,” he replied, “I shoveled
off her snow nnd she gave me fifty cents.
I told her I wiut coming to you, and she
said "
“I don’t-know her. What buiiness is
it to her.’
A Wontlerful I’lno Tree.
A few miles from OUu, writes a cor
respondent in Japan to the Ht. Louis
Globe-Democrat, is Knrasatc, a littlu
point of land running into tho lake,
where a Shinto temple has stood for
centuries. The shrine is covered by thu
arms of a pinc-trco, whoso trunk is
more than four feet in circumference,
nnd tho brunches, trained out on sup
ports, cover over nil acre of ground.
Of nil the wonders of this part of tho
world, this old pine-tree of Kursxato
deserves a first mention, nnd ono won
ders amazed under the great canopy of
long drawn out, interlacing brunches,
nnd studies thc intricate wav in which
the llinlis of the sturdy old pine have
been twisted, looped, tied nnd braided,"
ns if they had been so many sticks of
candy. The ends of the branches reached
out over thc water on cither side, and a
heavy stone wall on tho lake front pro
tecta the venerable tree from over being
washed away by storms or floods. There
is a tiny little box of a shrine up among
tho brunches, anti the pilgrims look
strangely enough when they clnp
their hands loudly and stand xvith
clasped palms, turning their faces
up to tlie branches overhead. All
the small children in Knrnsnto followed
us about as we wandered under tho
gnarled branches of the pine-tree, lmlf of
the small lxiys und girls currying a smuller
brother or sister on their backs. One
dear, bright-eyed little rascal capered
about most hcwitchingly, and hnrdly left
my elbow. When 1 sat down he sat down
nnd kicked his sandaled feet about me.
Ho Icunod over and read the same page
of the guide-book with me; discovered
my watch, held it in his baud to hear its
ticking,and made himself ut homo In thu

silent array before us, wondered no less at

few colics nml tho ompty shells of a skin
from which some locust liud lately flown.

It is quite an insult to ask a Malay if

which they said they wished to lay at mv
feet. They were the poorest ryots pos»l-
ide, with nothing on but a ragged and
dirty sarong, yet they were quite horri
fied at my asking if they had brought
their fowls to sell. They carefully ex
plained that the fowls (perhaps several
dollars’ worth) were a present to me, but
in the same breath they suggested that if
nut of my compassion for them I would
give them a small trifle to buy rice It
would be very acceptable. It seemed to
me that the distinction between selling
and this proposed proceeding was imag
inary, so I used to force them in a hard
hearted way to mention a price. I gen
erally found that the more delicacy and
refinement of feeling they had paraded
the higher the price they wanted and
thc less the fowls would bear examina
tion. The owner appeared to think that
the fowls would taste better on account
of having belonged to a noble race that
