JANUARY 24, 1879.
A
Gaieties.
A little boy was shown a picture of
the martyrs thrown to the Biala. He
startled his friends by shouting: " Ma
0 Ma Justlook at that poor little
lion way behind. there. He won't get
any."
-A clergyman who was recently call-
ed upon to hold services in the State
Prison at Sing Sing, prefaced his re-
marks to the peisoners by saying that
he was "glad to see so large a number
present."
"Jane; what letter in the alphabet do
you like best?" " Well, I don't like to
say, Mr. Snobbs." " Pooh, nonsense 1
tell riaht.out, Jane-whieh do you like
best?" Well," dropping her eyes, "1
hke '1j best."
-a-A teacher, after reading to her
scholars a story of a generoue
asked them what generosity was. One
little boy raised his hand and said, "1
know; it's giving to others what you
don't want yourself." .
-Yesterday the blush of health was
upon her cheek, and the light of a hapa
py spirit in her eye. To day, as she
sits apart, looking as yellow as saffron,
and feeling as sullen as a mud-turtle,he
asks her tenderly what ails her, and she
answers, sharply, " Mince pie, . you
idiot."
-e-On leaving in the morning said the
guest; " Answer my question frankly:
What induced you on sueh an insuffi-
cient acquaintance, to confer so great 9.
benefit on me"' Replied the host:
"As yeti press me, your question shall
be frankly ansvrered. My wife always
tells me that I am the ugliest man in
Great Britain; I -wished to show her
that there was an -uglier."
-A eharch organist in a place not
fax distant from Hartford, astonished
some of his auditors on Thanksgiving
morning by incorporating iil his velem-
tary the new and popular song of "Baby
Mine." After the service A was. found
that he was but expressing his thank-
fulness for the safe arrival of an heir-
ess, and there was a laugh all areund.
-It is related of tlie late Cardinal
Paul Cullen that when he bec&me
archbishop of Dublin one of his first
regulations was against the late hours
kept by his clergy. . They went out to
evening parties and often returped very
late. The young priests often resorted
to many devices to avoid detection, for
it had been noised abroad that the
Arelibishop did sit up to note the hours
at which they returned to the cathedral.
Ono night a youues; priest coming in
very late cautiously knocked at the
archbishop's outer door, and, F.meaking
in a whisper, familiarly asked, of the
curator, "Is Paul gone to bed yet ?"
The voice of Paul Cullen -for A was
who was acting as his own hall porter
.--gave the answer, " No ; Paul is wait-
ing sap for you."

A. Romantic Girl.
• A young man living in the upper part
!of the city was:, some time ago,. very
-deeply in love with a butcher's daugh-
ter living in the same vioinity. She
was a handsome girl,too, but desper-
ately romantic, and with her romance
she, tossome extent, imbued her "fel-
leti." The young lady's name was
„I Nancy johnSon, but she always sigued
it "Nannie Johnstone," and. in the
same spirit she persuaded her other-
wise sensible admirer to change his
name from Bob Smith to "Jtobbie
Smythe." Bot all this was not suffi-
ciently "like it is itt the books" to sat-
isfy Miss Nancy. had not yet had
an episode of auy kind to break the
monotony of her love affair.
The old man himself was a very
matter-of-fact sort of person, end made
not -the least objection to the inter-
course of the young people. Although.
Nancyeven sometimes allowed. dear.
Robbie to stay out later at night with
•her than she thought " papa" would
-approve, . and although she also cut up
other fal-de-rals of a similar insubordi-
nate character; the phlegmatic butcher
for a long time offered no opposition. -
Nancy's.- efforts to make a... stern
parent of the old gentleman were ineffec-
tual until she had several times
failed to be up early enough in
the morning to attend to her usual du -
'ties.
Then the old man struck.
He declared that the next time Nan-
cy stayed out so late at night she would
find the. house lobised U ou her re -
tarn.
This was just what Nancy wanted.
Here was a. case for romance. Big
romance.
She determined to remainout un-
usually late next time, and to enter the
high -stoop family mansion . on her re-
turn in some extraordinary manner,
with the. assistance, of course,of her gal -
ant lover. A dime novel she had been
readingbsuggested to subsidize the hired.
and the hired girl agreed. to ar-
range a Way by which Nancy ,might be
let in through .a wiudow on the first
floor.
Theth the hired girl, as a dutiful hired
girl should, went and told "the master"
all about it.
It was not enough for Miss Nancy,
however, to be admitted to the house
in an ordinarily mysterious manner,
and she therefore studied. upon the sub-
ject.
A rope ladder she thought a stale idea.
Other plans she also considered and.
abandoned as not exactly up to the
times.
• At length she settled upon a portable
telephone -one of those toy affairs on
the recent plan of a long string with a
tin cylinder at each ed.
About dusk on a certain eventful ev-
ening, Nancy ,on
a chance to fasten
one end of that apparatus to the sill �f
the parlor ;window and to throw the
other end_ out.
Then ahe went to the theatre with
Robbie, after a private unerstandinF
that Bridget was to be on guard Co
co-mmunicate by telephone on the re-
turn of the lover§ regarding the best
plan of entrance.
About one o'clock next morning, old
man Johnson might have been seen in
his front parlor fumbling with a 'con-
cern which resembled an empty oyster
Caen
-Filially old man Johnson heard some-
thing like a pebble striking against a
front parlor Window abont two, o'cloCk
in the morning.
Raising the sash softly, he felt a gen
tie tugging at the machine, and follow-
ing Biddy's instructions, he placed the
cylinder to his ear. • .
" Is all ready ?" he heard.
"Yis," he replied, through his end of
the apparatus.
" How am I to get up ?"
"Below the windy is a big goods box.
Beside the big goods box is two. cheers..
i
Upon the tees of the big eoods 'box is
two barrils,and acrass the two barrils
is a gallus wide plank. Git tip wid yer
feller onto the plank acrass the bar-
rils, and thin yer feller kin kiss ye
good night and hand ye onto the bal-
cony, and be off wid himself. Be '
lively, uow, for the old man is not yet
ashlape !" .
"'Precious • 1,3ridget," . telephoned
Nancy. ,
For several seconds there was a sub-
dued rustling and a few burlaps; and
i
once there was ai oise like that of a
boot -heel comingesuddenly out Of the
mud,' whichlattef sound convinced the
old gent that his late suggestion about
the good -night kiss was to be an ex-
ordium ae well as a. peroration to the
performances.
Now there was silence, bur -silence
only for a moment. A startling shriek
rent the damp morning air, and imme-
diately afterward a particularly shrill
female voice exclaimed,:
" 0, my land 1",
Then a much gruffer voice cried out :
" My God, Nancy, whatifind of a mess
is this ?" •
Then a window was raised, and an'
old man in a long gingham dressing -
gown stepped out on the balcony, and
leaning his elbows on the iron railing, -
and resting his chin on his hands, gazed
over at the catastrophe below, and
ehuckled severely to himself. Then he
inquired:
" What's the matter down there ?"
,
•
No reply.
- "What's the matter down there, I
sayV' 1
" Well," dolefully repliedBob, "we've
got into a _barrel apiece of something
or other that smells fearful."
"0, my land 1" cried Nancy. .
And Nancy commenced to scramble
and strike out at space, and her private
box upset and knocked over Bob's pri-
vate box, , and they both rolled out,
completely covered, besmeared and
saturated with soft soap.
It was net till Nancy hadbeen set-
tled down for some time,
steady and
comfortable as Mrs. Robert Smith, that
the 'old butcher divulged how he
had. knocked all the romance out of
•her.. 1 I
.
' "Well, but papa," said Nancy, "what
made the plank give way in two places
so suddeia ?" .
"When a plank is sawed in two
places, my daughter, and. those two
places are exactly the right two places,
it will sometimes give way in those
particular places all of a stulden."-N .

Promisad Revival of Sodom
and GOretorrah.
It is reported that French capitalists
have secured a:gran:tier a railwaseline
from Jaffa to the interior of Palestine,
which will open up the Jordan valley
and the whole region north of the Suez
canal. In • certain contingencies this
road might become of great Military
usefulness,- but it appears further that
the productive resources of the country
are considerable, and: what is more sur-
prising that the Dead Sea itself can be
tiarne(1 to commercial. account. Chief
of these at present are the stores of
natural combustibles, for which. that
region: is noted.
Hitherto the main obstacle to the
development of steam traffic in the Le-
vant has been the total absence of;com-
tustible material. Not only Egypt, but
the shores of Syria: and the Red Sea are
completely stripped of wood, and the
coal imported from the west commands
a price ranging fiern $10 to $24 a ton:
Now themasses of asphalt continually
thrown up by the Dead Sea attest the
presence of vast subterrauean layers of
fossil vegetable matter, aud these signs
were uot long overlooked by the_. enter-
prising men attracted to the Suez by,
the opening of the canal am.1 the move-
inent of commerce in that direction.
Recently numerous soundings have
been•ma.de between Jaffa and. the Dead
Sea, which, so far, have not diklosed
any deposits of coal proper, but on the
other have laid bare inexhaustible:beds
, of lignite. 1 .
1 Of itself this store of lignite is likely
to prove an inestimable gain to indus-
tries and commerce of the Levant ; but
we should add that the juxtaposition of
asphalt in great quantities furnishes the
elements of a mixture of lignite and
asphaltum in the form of bricks, which
is equal in.heating capacity to the rich
est bituminous coal, while its cost on
the ground is only $2.50 a ton. It is
known that 'similar bricks, made up of
coal dust and bituminous t debris from
gas works, are much, sought after by
French railways, since, besides their
heating power, they greatly' facilitate
stowage, owing to their regular shape.
Of course the bitumen of lower Pales-
tine has been known from immemorial
tirnes.and was used to impart solidity
to the structures of unbaked. clay in Ae-
syria, and Egypt; but it may be- said
that the discovery of the subterranean
combustible has lifted once for' all the
curse which has So long rested upon
Sodom and Gomorrah, and svill trans-
form the wasted shores of the Dead
Sea into a focus of industry and a mag-
azine of wealth.. I

A child that is universally treated
• with courtesy, .witb consideration, with
justice, will unconsciously deem him-
self worthy of such treatraenteand will
become worthy of it, unless he is by
nature wholly base; and he will utcon-
acioudly treat others as he is treated.
It is a fearful thing to give a child the
lie, to accuse him of staling, to accus-
tom him to unexpected and unmerited
cuffs and. blows. He may have been
guilty of an. Mitruth and of theft, he
may merit punishment, but the wise
parent never will admit into theehouse-
hold vocabulary the terrible words thief

and educated parent can never- tolerate.
language such as we have indicated.
-Bitter words are more cruel than blows
a.nd inflict more lasting injuries. Care
in the choice of associates will do much
to foster proper self-respect in a child.
Some mothersthink their sons 'and
daughters can go where they choose and
play with whom.they please, and come
out well enough in the end. There
never was.a greater mistake. As well
might one think it no difference what
air we breathe. Children are quicker*
than we to catch the tone of associates,
to pick up slang words, bad grammar,
vulgar ideas, -these often seem to be
taken in through the .very pores, a.s ty-
