The average boy Is a discoverer as far
oatranking Stanley as Stanley outranks
a garden mole. Point rue to a paint
pot, however discarded and presum¬
ably emp(it 1 it nay bn which the boy
will not discover and embellish himself
with. Show me a nail, howsoever hid
den, which ho will not find and pro¬
ceed to rend his garments on. Take
me to a spot in the garden where a
credulous relative has planted sweet
pea seed, in the fond anticipation of
floral return of purple, pink and white,
which the boy, in company with the
lien, has not devastated. Have you
buried the family cat? Give the boy n
chance and he will resurrect the re
mains.
Have you found a place to hide the
garden mko and seclude the hoe and
the spade? Ho will find them. And
yet i adore him, provided there is no
malice in Ids mischief. I love to have
him around. If ho is truthful and
bravo and pure there Is not a trick lie
plays nor a destructive tiling lie does
that is not the very spice and pepper
to my broth of life. It is kicking
against the pricks to try and keep a
boy spick and spandy— give it up so
far ns the exterior goes, for who cares
for a dude under the ago of ten?
Hut see to it, 1 charge and double
charge you, that you abate not your
efforts by day nor by night to keep his
soul clean and his thoughts pure. It is
not soiled hands and rent trousers, a
brimless hat and grimy shoes, that evi
donee the boy’s character and training.
It is the language ho uses and the things
he finds to laugh at, the avoidance of
cruel sports and the championship of
defenseless and timid tilings, that set
tire trade mark on your boy’s value in
tlie sight of heaven.—Chicago Herald.
Ills Unlucky Number.
“Thirteen has been an unlucky num¬
ber for me,” announced a certain
drummer sadly. “1 was the thirteenth
child and have always played in hard
luck. When I was thirteen years of
age 1 had typhoid fever. Later in life
I was run over by a street car No. 13.
In school 1 was for a long time number
thirteen in a class that counted thirteen
pupils; so 1 actually began to regard
thirteen with ill will Well, gentle
men, it proved to be particularly uu
lucky when 1 began to travel on the
road. 1 once called on a party, and af¬
ter much persuasion managed to sell
him a bill of goods. 1 was elated
“When 1 counted it up I found to
*ny surprise that it amounted to $1,313.
To make matters worse, it was tlie thir¬
teenth order 1 had taken, and was sold
on the thirteenth day of the month.
Buch on ominous combination of thir
teens boded no good l concluded that
the party would fail, and counseled my
firm not to ship the order.”
“Did the party fail'” asked the other
drummer In suspense.
“No, that's just the unlucky part of
it. No, he is as good as gold today.

An Ideal Tj pewriter.
Mv ideal typewriter would be a noise¬
less one which combined tlie merits of
the three, inked its own ribbons, fed
its own paper and cost about half the
present price. It will probably come
in with the millenium. I5ut whatever
typewriter you employ, don’t use a ma¬
chine that writes only capitals; such
manuscript is more illegible than writ¬
ten work. —Emily A. Thaekray in New
York Epoch.
The First Letter.
In London, one evening, I was look¬
ing for the Alhambra. Not knowing
exactly in which direction to go, I stop¬
ped to inquire of a passerby, when, sud¬
denly, the name of the theater escaped
me entirely. So I was obliged to ask,
“Do you know where that large theater
is near hero—it begins with an ‘A’?” Tie 4
man replied at once, “Oh, you mean
the ’Aymarket, sir.”—Cor. San Fran¬

Queen Victoria now rules a popula¬

Oh, that alternate ebb and flow of

is most distressing, it is no real change;
it is more sickoningly monotonous than
absolute stagnation itself.
Chloride of ethyl, a colorless liquid
of agreeable odor, has been found to
be an excellent refrigerant, and has
been quite useful in cases of sciatica,
neuralgia and toothache.
In the great animal market at Ham¬
