Of all the lads beneath the sun i do believe today, lie hales Uie worst that jblly one Who whistles at his play. Then whistle on. my cheery chap. In artless, honest pride. For who can toll what dread mishap Vour tune may turn aside? Eat h sturdy youth. 1 wish you Joy, The grave as wt’l as gay; But for my own (five ine the boy / Who whistles at his play.

And wnil 11 fui‘1 yqting ’twill stay As long Whistle aa cheery boys are grown To ftf their filay. —Al. A. Maitland in Golden Days. An Or»'g'»i Farmer 1 * Scheme for Flying. A Walla Walla “farmer” writes that he thinks the now fangled flying ina cltines he roads so much about in the ptipers are too expensive to bo of any practical u a He suggests the “training of ducks, geese, sea gulls or other birds not heavy in body, but rapid flying; make a very light rack or open plat¬ form of bamboo rods, hitch the fowls to the name in some way that the legs and wings would be free when fly¬ ing, which could be easily done, then have a basket fastened beneath the bamboo rack. Tho weight in all would not be over fifteen pounds. “Now, say the game selected for this purpose eaeii can lift its own weight {two pounds), of course it would require 100 fowls in order to lift the weight of a person (150 pounds), including the material. Now, if game could be trained 1 1 have no doubt it can), some prof - or might work it up. It would not cost 810,000; no steam or fuel are required. If some one should make it work, I hope his llrst trip will be to Walla Walla; if not, he won’t be tout much, because the game ought to sell for some figure. But you know the power is there, and it is about the only way 1 see flying could be made possi¬ ble.”—Port land Oregonian. Work I>1<1 It. It is not necessary that a boy who learns a trade should follow it all his life. Senator Palmer, of Illinois, was a country blacksmith once. President Lincoln \v as raised on a farm and split rails. President Johnson was a tailor In Tennessee. President Garfield drove mules on a canal. Jay Gould was a surveyor’s assistant. John D. Rocke feller was a bookkeeper. Erastns Coni ing, too lame to do hard labor, com cuenced as a shopboy in Albany. When be applied for employment first he was asked. “Will, hit little bov, what can you do?” “Can' do what* I am bid,” was the answer. That secured him a Ex-dovemor Stone, of Iowa, was n cabinet maker, at which trade the late Hon. > V D uglas also worked iu his v nth.

There have been few public men of whom so many good stories have been told as are told of Hannibal Hamlin. His was one of those sturdy, outspoken, independent natures that was bound to make the life of its possessor replete with incidents characteristic of the man. The epigrammatic answers made by the ‘ Old Carthaginian" during the course ,f his life would make a most interesting c< >!lection if they could be brought together. “What can you grow here?" inquired a distinguishedEnglish agriculturist of him one day as they were traveling along the rockbound coast of Maine. “We can raise men here,” was the proud response of the sturdy son of the Pine Tree state. . The old man was a most sincere be liever in New England and its institu¬ tions. He regarded the old states tis the balance wheels for the rest of the country. In one of the finest speeches he ever delivered in congress he said in an iin pa-boned bur-t of eloquence: “1 glory in New England and in New Eng land's institutions. There she stands, w ith her free schools and her free la bor, her fearless enterprise, her indomi¬ table energy; with her rocky hills, her torrent streams, her green valleys, her heaven pointed spires—there she stands, a moral monument around which the gratitude of her country binds the wreath of fame, while protected free dom shall repose forever at its base.”— New York Times. The I)og anti the Hell. That dogs become quite attached to other things than men and places is clearly proved by the conduct of Will Thornton’s pointer dog Leo. Before the Thornton House was burned Leo made that hotel his headquarters, and always appeared there regularly at meal times to be fed. Several weeks after the burning of the hotel the bell which had been used on the Thornton House was placed on the Weston House, and the first time this bell rang after its removal Leo was seen to run over to the Weston House, where he showed unmistakable sig^s of joy at the familiar sound of the bell. He had never shown any fondness for any per¬ son at the Weston House, and the fact that he has deserted his owner and taken up at the new place since the first day the bell was put up proves be¬ yond a doubt that his attachment for the old beil caused him to change his residence.—Talbotton (Ga.) New Era. Tint! 1'ired Feeling. He—And now that 1 have told you of my love, what is the feeling with which 1 inspire you? Oh, speak! She—I don’t know what the feeling Is. He (importunately) —What! Can you riot tell me the difference between liking and loving? She—Yes; but it is not so easy to distinguish between lassitude and ennui, you know.—Life. Mad a Long Ladder. Little Dot (seeing some workmen on a toll spire)—Oh, mamma, there go some folks up to heaven. Mamma—Heaven is a long wav above that steeple, my dear. Little Dot —I guess it is, ’cause they’s taking a ladder up with them.—Good News. Billions of Matches. Europe, continental and insular, consumes 2,000,009,000 matches daily. Assuming that each several act of igni tion occupies the brief period- of one second—and wo have reason to believe it is rarely performed in a shorter pe riod -it will be obvious to every ready reckoner that 555,000 hours of eacli successive day are spent by the inhab itants of Europe in striking matches. There is food for much speculation in the fact that Europeans dispose of nearly sixty-four years per day in scrap ing tiny sticks tipped with some inflam rnable composition. It is also interest ing to learn that 400.000 cubic yards of timber and 420,000 pounds’ weight of phosphorous are in annual request for the manufacture of the 730,000.000,000 matches used by Europe in a year.— Londou Tit-Bits.
