THINGS THAT NEVER DIE.
Tin? pur ti, th bright, th* beautiful,
ThfU Htlrrud oui fi**art* In youth;
The iiupuiut* to a wor<lle*M prayer.
Tlu* Ureanm of love and truth.
The lonjrintf after noun-thin# lost,
Thu Kpirit'n yearn in# cry 4
The striving after better hope*—
'i binte thlngM can never dia
The timid hand stretched forth to aid
A brother in his need.
The kiiuUy word In tfrir.f'n dark hour.
Thai provu a friend Indeed;
Tho plea of mercy oftly breathed
When Justice threatened hl*rh,
Tho sorrow of * contriU- m art—
Tio*> things shall never die.
Tho memory of a clasping hand.
The pressure of a kins,
And all the trlfltM sweet and frn-fl
That make up life's short bliss;
If with a linn, unchangin# faith.
And holy trust and hl#h,
Those hands have obtKjn-d. those ll|>s have
met-
These thin#* shall never die.
Tlio cruel and the bitter word
That wounded hh it fell;
Tho chilling want of sympathy
Wo feel but never tell;
Tho hard repulse that chjlled the heart
Whoso hope* wore bounding high*
In an utifudlng record kept—
Those Ihiiigs shall never die.
Let nothing |wua. for every hand
Can find some work to do;
Lohg not a chauco to waken love,
Be firm and Just and true;
So Khali a light that cannot fade,
Beam on thee from on high.
And angel voice* say to thee—
These things shall never die.

In the days of President Van Buren
the French government took extraordi
nary pains to lie popular in Washington.
This was no hard task, for the romantic
memory of iafayette had in no wiso
died away among our representative cit
izens This was the time wheiT duties
on foreign goods were heavily imposed
to raise revenue to support the govern
ment. The wary French king hoped to
ha 'e the duty made light upon his French
silks and wines.
It was probably more than a coinci
dence that at this crisis the Prince do
Joinville, the son of the king, made a
visit to tills country, and naturally ho
went to Washington. The president, ao
cuatomed then, as since, courteously to
receive distinguished guests, invited the
French prince lo dinner
For some Insufficient reason the Invi
tation was respectfully declined. Very
soon tiin prince returned to France. In
the meanwhile tlio French government,
ini or tried of De Join ville’s refusal to dine
at the White House, made a great stir,
litre wus an a (front to a rising power
which might well lie construed into un
international insult. The French sprig
of royalty was ordered immediately hack
to accept an invitation and dine witli the
president of the United States.
. In the meanwhile Oeu. Harrison had
died in office and Mr. Tyler was the
president. The French ambassador met
• ids prince in Now York and escorted him
to the capital. The invitation came, and
was effusively accepted. The inexorable
laws jf courtesy were thus appeased,
and the gallant Frenchman, with the
fail Miss Tyier on his arm, was ushered
into the slate dining room. Immediately
afterward lie returned to Ids frigate,
which had been expressly detailed to
Viring him over to take a meal. —Youth’s

The habits of the cormorant and of
our native fish hawk are generally
known. Their methods of taking fish
are very much liko those of birds of
prey. But the cassowary fishes accord
ing to a method of its own. Mr. Powell
witnessed Its operations on a river in the
island of New Britain:
i saw a cassowary come down to the
“ water's edge, and stand for some minutes
apparently watching t he water carefully.
It then stepped into the river where it
was about three feet deep, and, partially
squatting down, spread its wings out,
submerging them, tho feathers being
spread and ruffled.
Tho bird remained perfectly motion
loss, and kept its eyes closed, as if in
sleep. It remained in this position for
fully a quarter of an hour, when, sud
denly closing its wings and straightening
it feathers, it stepped out on tho bank.
Mere it shook itself several times, whero
upon a quantity of small fishes foil out
of its wings, and from amidst its feath
ers, which tho bird immediately picked
up :uui swallowed.
Tim fishes laid evidently mistaken tho
feathers for a kind of weed that grows
in tile w ater along tho bonks of the rivers
in this island, and which very much re
sembles the feathers of tho cassowary.
Tho smaller fishes hide in these w eeds to
uvoid tho larger ones that prey on them.

Kel Skins for Uhpumntlsm.
“Give me two large eel skins,” gsid a
young woman who entered a North End
drug store at tho timo a Globo man hap
pened to lie quencluug his thirst at tlio
soda fountain.
“Eel skius!” said Tho Globe man to
the clerk, when the young lady hud left
with her purchase. “What does she
want of eel skins:”
“Rheumatism,” said (lie drug clerk.
“You’d be surprised at tho number of
people who uso eel skius for rheuma
tism. I know an old man whose arms
aid legs are completely strapped with
them, and ho believe* that they prolong
his life. We have more or less call for
them, but I understand that up town
stores don’t keep them, although otico
in a while their customers ask for them.
Ve get our skius of a fish dealer on At
lantic avenue. He purchases them from
South Boston people, who sell the skinned
eels for food, and when tho skins are
dried, sell them to various customers.
In many of the fish stores on Atlantic
avenue you will see a bunch of the skins
suspended from the wall by a book.
They are very oily and soft, and while I
don’t take much stock in them, num
bers of people have implicit faith in
them. lam told that there is a German
family in South Boston that sells those
eel skins to various people throughout
toe United States and realir.es a snug
littlo Income therefrom."—Boston Globe.
COLLEGE BOAT RACING.
Tho annual inter-collegiate boat races are
by no mean# the least interesting eventa of
the commencement season. To be a victor
In that great struggle of strength and endur
ance, to be one of the triumphant crew, is
considered more glory and a greater honor
than to be valedictorian and spout one’s wis
dom before a crowd of friends and alumni.
This year the Yale and Harvard crows will
meet on June 28 at New London on the
Thames, Both crews have been in strict
training for somo time past.
Is training pleasure!
Well! try it yourselves and And out that
it is only by indefatigable energy and vigi
lance that allows no detail to pass unnoticed,
however slight, and by steady grinding and
perseverance that they are able to make a
creditable showing. But they ore willing to
sacrifice a|Lpeno&Al pleasure for the sake of
one short fifteen or twenty minutes rowing
provided the prestige of their alma mater
shall be sustained. How proud that young
giant must feel after a hard earned victory
to have some fairy like figure run to him
flushed with excitement and Joy, throw her
arms around his neck, and cry;
“I knew you would win, you old dear."
“Yale always wins,” or “Harvard always
wins,” os the case may be.
Tho girls ore stanch, loyal supporters of
their college colors, be it crimson or blue.
THE DAY OF THE RACE.
On the day of tho race crowds and crowds
of mothers, brothers, friends, sympathiser!,
alumni and students fl<x:k to the sc sue of ac
tion. Special trains are run, packed almost
beyond endurance. But every one is happy
In anticipation. Ah, but there will be many
a disappointed one by night! Many a youth
of sporting proclivities will look in vain for
the huge wad of bills be wagered so con
fidently—and, last of all, think of that di*
appointed college whose colors * have been
lowered to their bitterest foe, At the scene
of action everything is gay and attractive.
Trains of cars a mile long line the river. These
are nothing more than open freight oars with
temporary scats and gayly decorated with
flowers and flags. Money is plenty every
where, and so are tho cries;
“Even money on Harvard I”
“Bet you 6 to 5 on Yale!”
“Put up your stuff 1”
People turn to soo who It is that stands
ready to back his crew so eagerly. Hero and
there one a group of animated students,
full of expectancy, frantically waving their
money in tho nir, hoping to catch the eye of
some youthful sjiort.
“Hollo, Charley, what odds are you givingf*
Two friends of different colleges have met
“Give you 8 to 2, but you’re throwing
away your money if you take me up.”
“That’s all right, old man \ wo’re going to
show you a few things about rowing. 11l
take *6O to $40.”
“Ta, tal”
College boys are always confident,
“HERE THEY COMEI”
Ah I hero come tlio crews, fine muscular
giants, every one a perfect specimen of phy- I
steal manhood. Hoe how proudly they walk
to their bouts, tVtmt beautiful shells they i
row ini What can be more exquisite, with
their delicate curvos, their sharp prows, per
fect finish, and light airy beauty f They are
o narrow that the oarsmen are obliged to
part their hair in the middle to avoid cap
siring and to keep the shell perfectly trim;
so it is said. “I wonder if it is true!” says a
young and pretty miss to her escort.
“Of course," says he, with mock gravity.
Then they laugh at the same old mom grown
joke that is sure to be heard at every boat
race. The cheering commences. On aU sides
ore heard the “’Rahl ’Rah I 'Rah! Yale I"
“’Rahl 'Rahl 'Rah! Harva-r-d!” Some
times Princeton's sky rocket yeli is heard,
“’Rah! 'Rah! 'Rah! tiger—siss— boom—ah I”
They are not entered in the race, bnt they
are standing for one of tho colleges. Colum
bia, with her “Rahl’ 'Rahl ’Rah! 00-l-u-m
--b-i-a!” is there. Every man tries to outshout
his neighbor. The gentler sex wave their
handkerchiefs and flags, the noise is deafening,
the confusion indescribable. The men are In
tho boats. Now they are ready.
“Ready all I Give way I"
“TtntY arb orr!"
They are off! Wasn’t that a flue startt j
“ ’Rahl 'Rah, siss-boom. ’Rah! tiger—Yale—
’Rah! Ah! Harvard." So thoy keep it up, |
shout after shout. The prows of the shells :
cut through the waters with a swish, the ]
oarsmen bend to their oars mid pull w ith a
strong, steady stroke. How evenly matched
they are! “Rah! Rah!" Some undergradu
ate who Ims been yielding to the itersuiislve
force of mallow old King Corn hikes it upon
himself to outhoot tho multitude. He keeps up
his incessant “’Rah I ’Hah I" A number of min- j
utos have passed; tho boats have turned the {
stake; they are on the homestretch. Tugj
boats and little steamers follow in their wake,
so as not to disturb their course. “Yala
leads!" “Harvard loads!" bursts from a
thousand throats. The cry oom dowu the
banks of the river and Is caught, up and re
shouted by thousands of excited men. Yea,
one boat leads.
Tho roar crew Is rowing a strong, steady
stroke, and is slowly overhauling the leaders.
Can she catch her before they have finished j
those hist 100 yardsi On they come liko the
wind.
Whistle* screech.
Tho shouting is terrific.
Hats go up In the air.
Flags are waved frantically.
Every one is seemingly crasy with excite
ment,
“How slowly that rear boat moves!”
“Will it uever oateh the leader 1"
“How that leading crew- is fagged out!"
Tlieso exclamations are heard on all sides
But tho men are straining every muscle, the
gap la closing up.
IIKFKATI VICTORY!
What's that commotion! What means
that cry of dismay from the crowd! Blasted
hopes, empty pockets, tears and curses—yes,
curses sometimes—of disappointed ones. No.
8 of the leading boat has broken an oar,
over he goes, the oars are mixed, the progress
of tho boat is retarded, and w-here victory
seemed so certain defeat is inevitable
The rear bout shoots across the line a win
ner by a scant half leugth, but a winner
nevertheless. Bedlam is let loose. There is a
rush for the winning crew. Strong arms
raise the men iu the air and carry them to
their quarters. “You did nobly." Rah for
us!" What a time there will to in town to
night! A victorious student is a queer crea
ture; money is no obftt't; it has been
won easily, and it will fly away just as
nicely. Champagne will flow. The horizon
will turu a rich crimson color, and—drop the
curtain over the weakness and excesses of the
boys.
In the morning many a tired voice will ex
claim, “Oh, my poor head! But it was a
grand victory. I wouldn’t have missed it for
ten such heads,"
Ob, no!

Hrllliant Flesh Tinta.
Ho liad conceived an idea for a great
classical picture, and he hired a stalwart
gentleman of toil to pose for the muscu
lar figure required for the center of the
picture. ITo painted for days nnd days,
and he thought whenever lie had his
model before iiim that lie had never seen
such rich flesh, tints before. And he
studied those flesh tints and worked till
ho had got them perfect Then ho called
his brother artists in and showed them
vic picture
“Those flesh tints don't seem quite
right. Where did you get them?”
"They rich, aren't they? But they're
from nature. They’re from my model.”
“Well, they don’t look quite natural.”
The last touches had to be given and
the model had come to pose for the last
time. When he stripped his torso and
took his position the painter stared
aghast. The brllliaut flesh tints had
vanished and ho was a plain, ordinary
flesh colored individual.
“How's this? What's tho matter with
you?”
“What?"
•‘You've changed your skin. It Used
to bo redder than that."
“Oh, that was from the red undershirt
I used to wear, and I had a hath this
morning.”—Sau Francisco Chronicle.
Tracking Frugality.
The wealth of Holland and the great
commercial prosperity of that country
about HOO years ago were built up by a
parsimonious frugality, which for e. long
time marked the character of the Dutch.
This habit gave place to luxury when
wealth had been secured. The clergy
tim'd to rebuke the growing extrava
gance, and a French writer tells how a
successful business man taught his fel
lows a lesson:
Before retiring from business and tak
ing leave of his friends in the city he in
vited them to dine with him. The
guests, on arriving at his residence, were
surprised to see the extraordinary pre
parations that had been made for their
reception. On a plain oak table, covered
with a blue cloth, were some wooden
plates, spoons and drinking vessels.
Presently two old seamen brought In
dishes containing herrings—some fresh,
others salted or dried.
Of these the guests were invited to
partake: but it was clear that they had
little appetite for such poor fare, and,
with considerable impatience, they
awaited the secoud course, which con
sisted of salt beef and gr ms. This, also,
when brought in, they uid not seem to
relish.
At last the blue cloth was removed,
and one of line white damask substitut
ed; and the guests were agreeably sur
prised to see a number of servants, in
gorgeous liveries, euter with the third
course, which consisted of everything
accessary to form a most sumptuous
banquet. The master of tho house then
addressed his friends in the following
terms:
gentlemen, has been the pro
gress of our republic. We began with
short frugality, by means of which we
became wealthy: and we end with lux
ury, which will beget poverty. We
should, therefore, be satisfied with our
beef and greens, that we may uot have
to return to cur herrings.” Youth's

A Famous Betrothal Over Forty Year* Ago.
“I wonder how many people know
that Victoria tho Good, as it has itcen
I suggested the queen of England shall to
; called, when she fell in love had to do
| tho proposing for herself?” said an Atuer
i iconized Englishman tlm other looming.
| “I was much interested in reading rt
| cent' tho account of her betrothal. It
j had a.ways been oX]>ectod that shty and
! tier cousin Albert would eventually make
a match of it. When they were both
about 19 years old ho visited England,
! but did not make much impression on
tho newly crowned queen. However,
| tliree years later ho made up his mind to
Ia ‘now or never’ game, and with Ids
| brother visited hei at Windsor castle.
; Liko more humble lovers, he was placed
in a rat her embarrassing predicament by
tho non-arrival of Ida luggage, and was
j thus prevented from dining with her
j majesty ou his first evening ns her guest
For five days did Victoria study him,
and then after first telling her adviser,
Lord Melbourne, what she had decided
to do, she sent for Albert, saying that she
desired to seo him particularly. One ac
count of the Affair, certainly valuable for
its brevity, reads as follows: ‘What tho
queen told him was that she loved him
with her whole heart, and that she de
sired to bo Ids wife.’ She was accepted
without hesitation, as any good looking
sovereign of 20 might have hoped to have
been, and so they were married.”—Phila
delphia Press.
Th* Weight of Individual*.
The average weight of a boy at birth
ia seven und that of a girl a little more
than six pounds. When they have at
tained the full development of wan or
womanhood they should weigh twenty
times as much as they did at birth. Tins
would make a man's average weight 140
and a w oman's about 130. Tins height
of a male at birth is 1 foot 8 inches and
that of a female 1 foot C inches. Fully
grown, a man's height should be about
three and a half times greater than at
birth, or 5 feet 9 inches, while a woman
should be 5 feet 8 inches. The weight of
Individuals who are fully developed and
well formed, however, varies within ex
tremes, which are nearly as 1 to 3, while
their height varies within limits which
at most are as 1 to 1-8. Taking 200
pounds as the' maximum of man's weight
and 83 as the minimum we would have
the average of 142$ pounds. Placing the
maximum weight of woman at 185
pounds and the miuimum at 70 pounds,
and we get an average of 1274 pounds.—
