Here aro a few a the brightest say -

blind, and that the ;great and good

or fate, drawn heart and brain ?
A Child's Laugh. -Strike with the
hand of fire, 0 weird musician, thy
harp strung with Apollo's golden
hair ; fill the vast cathedral aisles with
Ieymphonies sweet and dim,. eft iouoh-
nir of the. organ keys; blow, buglers,

elad hills; but know, your isweolest
strains aro :discord, all, compared with
childhood's happy laugh -the laugh
that fills the oyes with light and every
:heart with' joy I
Selfishness. -1 dlo not see how it is
possible for a moo to die worth mil-
lions of dollars in a city full of pain,
Where every day he sees the wither-
ed hand of want, and the white lips of
famine 1 1 do not see -how leo can do it,
any than he could keep a pile of
lusnber on the shore where hundreds
and thousands were drowning.
J?oehion-J3oauty.-1 am a:believer in
fashion. 1L is the duty of every wo-
man, to make herself as beautiful and
attractive as she possibly can. "Hand-
some is, as handsome does," but she is
much haadsomer if well dressed. Every
mons should look Lia very best. 1 am
a believer In good clothes. The limp

coarse% it is, oat it and make it in the

Right and Wrong. -Everything is
right that tends to the l appinesa of
mankind, and everything is (wrong
.that Increases' the sum of human mis-
ery, What can increase the bappinesa
of this world more than to do away
with! every Corm of -slavery, and with
all war? What can Increase the mis-
ery of mankind snore than to increase
wars and put chains upon more human
limbs? What is annsaence'0 1f masa
were incapable of suffering -if man
could, not feel pain -the word "eonsci-
en•ce" never would have pulsed his
Lipa.
Fear, -Year pnrely zes the brain.
Progress is born of courage. Fear be-
lieves, courage doubts. Year falls up-
on the earth and prays, courage stands
erect and thinks. Fear retreats, cour-
age advances. Fear is barbarism, cour-
age is oivilizat(on. Fear believes in
witchcraft, in devils and ghosts. Fear
Let religion, courage is science.
Pdwer, Gela.-it is better to be the
emperor of one loving and tender heart
-and she the empress of yours -thou
to be the emperor of the world. Gold

,was Where they wvrauon it tram the
miserly, clutch of the rocks. When I
saw the muuaiaius treeless, slirubless,
fd.owenlesa,-withotgt even a spear at

the same effect upon the soil that holds
it as upon the ntau who lives and lat,-
ora only for it. It 'affects the land an it
does the man. 11 leaves the heart bar-
ren, without a flower of kindness,
withoutt b1ers0 01 pity.
Love. -Love is the only bow ou life's
darts cloud. 11 is the morning and
evening star. It shines upon the babe
and shells its radiance on the quiet
tomb: it is the mother of art, inspirer
of poet, patriot and philosopher. It
ops the air and light of every heart;
builder ,of every home, kindler of every
Brants every hearth. 11 was the first
to dream of immortality. It file,: the
world with melody -for music is the
voice of love. Love is the magician,
thry enchanter, that changes worthless
Things to joy, and makes right royal
king's and queens of common clay. It
is the perfume of the woflelrous flower,
the heart, and without that sacred
passion, that divine swoon, we are lese
thaw beats but with it earth is hea-
ven; and we ase gods .

HUMORS OF CHRISTENING,
'.Lite principal person at a olu•isteu-
lalg is generally too young to take any
active part in the ceremony beyond
crying loudly-wilhout which, iu some
localities, the ehrlstening is not con-
sidered " lucky," the baby's likeilho,d
of good fortune being measured by
the vigor of bis crying, says It writer
in London Tit-JJILs. But at the very
first service of the kind at whiclh the
writer officiated the recipient of the
baptismal name distinguished himself
and brought confusion on the bashful
and inexperienced young parson of
those long -ago days ; for it was not
until long after that memorable firet
baptism that I lost all fear of drop -
plug the infant and a notion that a
baby is kept together by its clothes
and may al any moment fall to pieces
if not very carefully handled. It was
a double event ; that is to say, two
children of the same family were pre-
sented for baptism together.
In another case well known to me
eight children if ono family had been
saved up, and seven were marched. to
church as an escort to the eighth, and
all wart) baptized together -the fath-
er afterward intimating that the vicar
ought to " knock aummat oft " the fees
on the usual principle of " w reduction
for quantities, like." In any case there
were' only two, ane 1 found one of
them one too many for my peace 01
mind, for he -a buy of some 3 years of
age -started and amused the con-
gregation and confounded me, when in
the act of sprinkling the water on his
brew, by luttly singing Mt, " Here,
drop it, will yer I" Perhaps the pro-
test was natural, but it was highly
disconcerting.
Generally, however, the recipient of
the name is quiescent -except in the
mutter of irresponsible yelling -but
tile pnarents occasionally furnish much
amusement; and especially is the de-
mand made to them, "Name this
child,' sometimes provocative of very
queer responses indeed.
I am not now referring to the extra-
or'dinary combinations of high-sound-
ing manses with which some ambitious
parents burden their offspring, though
now and then they are sufficiently
mirth -provoking, particularly when
prefixed to an ultra -plebeian surname.
Florence Bertha Madeleine Victoria
Snaggles "-the incongruous title rings
in my memory after many years -is a
--ease in point. The surname, by the
way, was not " Snaggles,"' but it was
quite as full of pathos as that.
I have it on the authority of an en-
tirely veracious Merited friend that on
one occa"ion he was staggered, on say-
ing " Name this child," by the re-
sponse, "Lucifer "'-as he thought.
"What?" he asked, "Lathy, sir," re-
peated the lisping and now blushing
mother ; and this time my friend grasp-
ed the situation and dealt with the in-
fant Lucy aoaordingly.
One child was actually aheistened and
registered "Robert Hoely," instead of
plain " Robert," on account of his
mother's anxiety to prevent the ad-
dition of a second name. The clergy-
man had not quite caught what she
said, and asked for n repetition. "Rob-
ert," said the permit, " then, fearing
last the parson's defective hearing
should result in error, she hastened to
say "Robert IIonly," The "H" made
all the difference.
One curious case came under my no-
tice in the Midlands many years ago.
When asked for the child's name the
village matron replied, ' Senna -tea,"
or what sounded like it. The aston-
ished cleric asked for a repetition of
the name. Again came, more distinct-
ly than before, " Senna -tea." There
was ause and general a e al bewilderment.Pa g
At length the pew -opener hit on the
solution, and, bending toward the per-
plexed clergyman, she wbisperod. "She
=mine "Sinnetta, sir : " and all went
well.
The explanation was sample -and ro-
mantic. Sinnetta was tee name of a
gypsy buried in a neighbouring ohuroh-
yard. The handsome gypsy girl had
been wooed aud won by an aristocrat,
but had pined away and died. Her
heart -broken hnabnnd had her buried
near his hall and pieced over her a
plain white marble Lomb bearing the
simple name, "Sinnetta." Possibly
moved by the romance, certainly at-
tracted by the unusual name, the good
woman wished her ohild to be so called.
The following is almost too strange
to be believed; it actually happened,
nevertheless:
The baby wen proudly borne, amid
admiring relatives and neighbors, to
the font and duly proseuted for bap-
tism.
m.
' Name this child." '
"Beelzebub."
"What ?"
"Beelzebub."
"But, my good woman, you oan'i pall
the ohild that."
"It's a Scriptur' name, sir, ain't
it?"
Yes, but do you know what it
means? It is impossible to still the
ohild 'Beelzebub,Give him a good
sensible name --call him John, say."
As no protest was immediately made,
"John" the child was duly named;
and the parson congratulated the baby
on having gained a plain, honest name,
and hianself on hwvipg saved the poor
mile from being Saddled with a title
which would have become iutolorable.
But his satisfaction was short-lived,
and he was speedily shakenout of his
congratulatory mood by the hurried re-
turn of the motirer. Hastening down
the aisle, she brought her baby back
to the font before the parson had
time to leave it, and exclaimed in con-
sternation, as if the disconcerting
anomaly had
onlyjust struck her:
1 wona sir."Sure enough,

Sweatt. Disaskaraaallda, the famoaa
Hindu ascetic, of Bemires, is dead. Thin
devout Brahmin, who kept lsiuhsell
naked and self -immured, was visited
by nearly all the Indian tourists dur-
ing their stay at Renares, including
the. Prince of Walton He spent his life
In a rigid posture, giving no heed to
his visitors and patiently waited fur
death in the holy city which, acCord-
tng to Hindu belief, means lite ever-
lasting.
Although Swami was a celebrity lit-
tle was learned by' his visitors of hie
actual life or of his beliefs that dic-
tated his peculiar aanotioism. He was
either a Uclasi or Digambar devotee,
more probably the latter. The Lidasi
live in alunaeleries, but they eat in the
houses of Hindus of all castes, and
accept food cooked by other persons. At
the creation of a new 'lldasi they dis-
tribute a aweetnleut called he bua. Some
of them aro called Naga, from nauga,
naked, because they go naked. 'Phis is
also true of 0101310 011ier Hindu soeta, in -
eluding the Gosafns, and Buiragls. The
latter are inordinate beggars. Many of
these sec(uriaa lead immoral and crim-
inal lives, but ,the Digambar devotees,
while .they go naked like the others,
Lead ours lives, They live separately
from society and from all family con-
nections
LIVE APART.
A Digambar is Gala who has all the
world for a covering. In his manner
of life Swami Illiaskarananda practic-
ed even more than the customary as-
cenlicism of the Digambar and he en-
tirely avoided the greediness and glut-
tony of the Uclasi. Living apart from
alt the rest of Lha world he became a
celebrity in his retirement aud his
palace of retreat became as much an
object on curiosity to tourists as the
historic show places of lienares.
Benares is to the Hindu what Mecca
is to the Mohometan, Jerusalem to the
Jew and Calvary ,to the Christian. It
is the holy city of India. It is so holy
that many distant rajahs always had
delegates living there who performed
for them the requisite services and
ablutions. Its ancient name is Casi,
the Splendid, which the Hindus still
retain. It was the ancient seat of
Brahminical learning and it is still the
home of many of the priests of Brah-
ma and the resort of pious pilgrims
from all parts of India, who come to
make their ablutions lu the sacred
fiver, the Ganges. It has many temples
and holy wells, but the streets are
narrow and unsavory and stenches as-
sail the noses of visitors at every turn.
When ,the Prince of Wales visited
Benarea ;he went to the so-called tem-
ple of the monkeys and the well's of
Shiva and Vishnu as well as to make
a gall upon the devotee Swami Bllas-
Lcarananda. Little was said of the
Prince's visit to the recluse by the spe-
cial correspondents of the London pap-
ers, but his prese.uoe at the shrine of
the monkeys was told with great min-
uteness of detail.
REASON FOR NICKNAME.
There is good reason for the nickname
that Europeans have applied to this
shrine of Indian superstition -the Mon-
key Temple. There are monkeys every-
where -up in the neighboring trees, on
the walls and roofs and nearby houses,
on the fronts of the shops, in the roads,
and streets that serve as approaches to
the temple. This part of Bemires is a
city of monkeys -mischievous monkeys
that sometimes hurl atones al passers-
by. It is said that a band of monkeys
once did valiant battle for a mythical
berg of Hindu tradition -hence this
temple which is sacred to the simian.
When Wales arrived at the temple
he was supplied with a plata of parch-
ed peas and a number of white sweet-
meats of whichhe was assured the
monkeys heal .many times signified
their approbation. The Prince's ar-
rival was the signal for a gathering
of the simians in whose special honor
this great monkey house is maintain-
od- from every direction Lon naso agree-
able
sy t
able animals rushed to welcome the
Prince, who will some day become 'Em-
peror of. India. They came running
over and aoross the walks reserved for
the passage of his Royal Highness;
they tumbled down from the minarets
of the temple; they wriggled through
holss and crevices known only to the
monkeys of this Monkey minster ; they
hurried through the doorways. For-
tunately they happened to be peace-
ably iaolined at the time of the
Prinee's visit, and so royalty escaped
becoming the victim of their mis-
chievous pranks. It was observed,
however, that the lace on the Prince's
coat was a great tomprtalion to the
eaored simians of the MonkeyTemple
-they looked at his uniform with glis-
toning oyes. It is probable they had
been well fed In antieipnation of the
Prince's visit and so were restrained
from trying to malts a dinner of the
insignia of royalty,

THE PIIEDICTION,
"In eighty years," a I3enares Brah-
min ventured to predict, when Chris-
tianity first attempted to gat a foot-
hold In the holy city, "the worship of
Gunge will vanish, the chains of caste
win be dissolved, and all will have the
true knowledge of God and become
Christians."
The prediction was made eighty years
ago, but its fulfilment is still eighty
years in the future. The missionaries
at Relearns have been at work during
these four -snore years, but the Granges
is still the sacred river of the Hindus,
the nasty wells of Shiva and Vishnu
are still believed to contain a purity -
Ing element:, the simians still perform
their mischievous pranks about the
shrine of the monkeys.
Caste under English rule is not so
powerful as it once was nand the int -
mora li.les of the Brahminical sects are
restrained by the strong arm of re-
pression, but the ancient religion with
much of its mendisanoy and nastiness
Mill retains its hold upon the people
of India. How ,strong this hold la is
proved by the self-imposed martyr-
dom of Swami Bhaskaranunda.
'REASONS FOR JILTING LOVERS.
A young lady of Los Angeles, to
whom the sobriquet "The Queen of the
Fiancees" is most appropriate, has
plough yet in her teens, been engaged
no fewer than aaventoen times. She
maintains that only after he has
plighted his troth can a man's true
character be deciphered, and that from
the expression of his eyes she can
detect the moment she ceases to en-
gross Ids entire thoughts. This acute
penetration she has already exercised
on seventeen occasions.
Last year a Birmingham lady, a Miss
P--, jilted her fianraee for gaining a
stone in weight in six months. She
was a romantic maiden, in whose idea
a lover should conform to the strict
canons of romance -should sigh, lan-
guish, and grown thin. As he clearly
diel not do this he was incontinently
dismissed,
A Brighton girl holds an entirely
opposite opinion. Three years since,
noticing that the man to whom she
was engaged was growing thin, she
declared that, as in her judgment hap-
piness always conduced to embonpoint,
the tie that bound these must be irk-
some to him. With much vehemence
he protested, but all in vain, and the
lady insisted on releasing him from
the compact. Last summer she ac-
cepted the proposal of a rich stock-
broker, and the marriage was fixed
for Christmas. But era the time ar-
rived site herself found she was losing
flesh; and although her inclination ran
contrary to her preconceived theory,
she was true to the latter, and refused
to ratify her promise.
A certain wealthy and eccentric lady
named Smyth accepted the hand of a
ep
poor curate. Shortly afterwards the
latter came into a considerable for-
tune, whereupon the lady wrote say-
ing that all must be over between
them, for although she could feel
herself mistress with a poor husband,
a rich one might be disposed to assert
nn equality, to which she could never
agree. The curate, who, is now a high
dignity, bore his rebuff with philo-
sophic resignation.
A well-known novelist was once jilt-
ed by a girl who took exception to the
inadequate punielhment meted out to
one of his fictitious villains. She de-
clared that as he regarded vino ' with
so lenient an eye, he must himself be
at heart a reprobate and unworthy of
true lova, and that she must request
that their acquaintance should cease.
An etninentQ.C. in his younger days
met with a similar mishap. The lady
to whom he was engaged. chancing to
heat' that he v had styli orad a most
skilful, though futile,
speechin defence
of an.
arrogant mime, wroth sa3Lng
that: she must decline to know anyone
wbocould thus strive to speciously ex-
ousa crime. In return he pleaded the
exigencies of his poafession; but .in
vain. The lady was obdurate, and
soon afterwards, by the ntrangs irony
of fate, married a man wvlho was ulti-
mately convicted of gross fraud, main-
ly through the forensic eloquence of
her former lover.
Some yonrs ago a Curtain shrewd
solicitor was on the point of espous-
ing a rich widow, when he was ap-
pointedto aehief Merin/tip. The pros-
pective bride, to wheat the word clerk
was synonymous with dopendenee and
drudgery, asserted with considerable
heat that she could not marry a man
who submitted tamely to such an in -
salt. What did he purpose to do t
Accept the clerkship, of course,
"What I" screamed the lady; and
casting upon title poor lawyer a look
of withering disdain she bounced from
his presents.
