Fund Elis ',Fault.
Some persons' conceptions of Chris-
tian, coaduct are as absurd as that of a
very pehurieus old womao, who was in-
vited:, to tea at the horee of a family
with Whom a very worthy and dearly
beloved clergyman was staying. Be
was a man of remarkable purity of char-
acter arid gentleness of mtLmier, and was .
tialversally loved aud resected. 1
Afteriteaa he excused himself, on ac-
count e a 11ieadache, and went to his
WWIIcl 1'0 M. •
“ Were you not greatly pleased With
him ?" asked the lady of ' the house, of ,
this old lady, after the minister had re-
tired. t -
" Olt, party well," was the doubtful
reply,
"1 anew you would! be,'! said the
lady, warmly. "He is °lie of the love-
liest Christian diameters 1 ever met"
"But he aint perfect," was the cold
reply. !
"Oh, no, perhaps not. None of as
is absolutely perfeet, but I really think
Mr. B ' '• comes nearer perfec-
tion than any man I ever met, in. my.
life.- •
" Well, that may be, aet ke has his
faults."i
1
"Ilh
e as never res'ea.e41 them here,"
said the lady, a little kr tated. "And
I am sure he would try very hard to
overcome them if they were pointed
out."
“ Well," said this discoverer of faults,
" everyhody has their own way of
- thinkina but when I see a men, as I
saw that man to -night, put two heap -
4 in' teaspoons of sugar in one cpp of
tea, wha, I've got my own Wee 'bout
las Christianity, now, that's - what I
have." 1'
" That is not a great fault," said the
host. .
But the old lady'shook her cap sol-
emnly. 1 eee_

A Ne*spaper Office in, Japan.
The office of the -‘` Nichi:Nichi Shin -
bun," a Japanese newspaper, is thus
describeil : The feature of the -" Shin:
haul - office was its type case—for there
was onlY one of body type. And such
a type case ! It is clivid!ed, for utility,
into two sections, sloping toward an
alley five' feet wide. Each section is
four feet, wide by thirty feet long—four
II sixty feat. There's a [ new case for
you ! This is divided into small corn-
parttnedte or boxes, into which' the
type is1 laid in regular Piles, several
piles in it box, with faces all toward the
compositors, mostly boys, bigand little.
Each helds a wooden ' ' stick," with
brass rule. The type are all of a size ;
the a stiek " is not set to the measure
of the •.:oleinin, which ia twenty ems
pica, bat te about half the measure,
it being the basilicas_ of other workmen
to impuse the lines in eolumns, take
proof, and neeke up', forms.
Now, ithen, the type -setting. Armed
with “ Sticks " aud ride and copy, the
aozen compositors read the Feet in an
earnest, sing -song way, each rushing to
some hex, far or near, for the needed
letter, then beak ten or twelve feet to
the needed one ; all are .on tl•e lively

"How. many dalerentleharacters are

Thoughtful Benevgience.
This 'would be a grand! evOrld.if every
creature in it were to do I allihe could to
lessen pain and increase happiness. . e
It is astonishing how} much suffering
can be Jprerenteddiy a little attention of
the rigit kind at the right moment.' lAn
audien e of three thousand people may
be kept in Misery for two hours if the
janitor does not watch his therieorneter;
or a whole playground Vull of well -d -
posed boys may be totimented by ohe
half -civilized bully. On }the ether hand,
a large party goes off beautiftilly Simply
because the director of} the entertain- .
ment has taken thoughtf il pains to haVe
it go off so. ,
Some people seen t have a lovely
genius for diffusing hapins around
them.. They are tleerneelves so engag-
ing that only tei be neat them is a de-
light. Most of us, hOwever; eif we
would enjoy the happiaese of making
others happy, must try} to do it. We
must aaoid and remove c uses of pain;
r
we must invent and provide tate meahs
of enjoyment.. .
The meat usual cause olf failure in thin
particular is not thinking. The evening,
lamp is distressing a paid of aged eyes;
a thoughtful 'person q iietly places a
screen so as to shelter
piercing light.
"Why didn't I think clf that whispers
the onlooker to him self. Thinking of itl
is the rare acciomPlishrp. nt. Anybody
can perform the trifle ti Of household
benevolence; the merit lies ie not for-
getting to do them. •
Mr. Andrew ICarnegie, one of the iron
kings of Pennsylvania, 1 eptions in his
now celebrated article in The Forum
two facts which illustra e what a little
thought may do to to miti ate the human
lot. One of the weak en in the erne
ployrnent of his cotnpa y happened to
allude to the increased c gt of groderies

being paid only once a mllmth.' 1
" Well," said Mr. C rnegie, ;" why
pannot we overcome that by paying
elvery two weeks. " We did net like to
ask it," replied the ma, 'because we I
always understood that it woald cauaa
much trouble; but if you flo that it
would be worth an adv lice of five•per

From another man, at he same inter- ,
view Mr. Carnegie was sal -prised to learn
that Poor men who bought a few bushels
of coal' at a time paid Just twice the
price which 'hie comp ny paid. One:
moment's kindly thought remedied this
grievance. ,
"How easy for us," saidthe president
of the company to " deliyei eoal et) our

So said, so done. }
And as such ideas are exceedingly
contagious, a very large .aumber of iron -
masters now provide theit itnen with coal

Lecturers! Stories:
The lear approach if the lecture sea-
son recalls some e perieace of noted
Boston lectures Whi h have never been
.published. James T.1 Fields was fond
of dWelling on -the discomforts attend-
ing lecturing trips, especially in winter.
Damp beds he regard*d as the most seri-
ous evil, and he said llhat Wendell Phil-
lips guarded against t em by carrying a
huge bag, into whicl he tied himself
before getting betwee the sheets. Mr.
Fields liked to recall the amusing mis-
takes Made by some of his hearers in re-
gard to his relations ith noted outliers.
He had talked so fa.m liarly about dead -
and -gone literary wo •thies that he Was
semetinies supposed to have known
writers who were bur ed years before he
, was botn. On one oe asion, after a lec-
ture ih a Western town an old man
came hobbling up t the Platform and
said -to him :
" Wes you personall y acquainted with
Dryden ?'
When this story w s told to Matthew
Arnold, the latter too it very seriously,
and asked the writer
"Is that the class • people who will
hear me in the West?' •
On, another ' oecasi n, having been
asked to mention attl e close of his dis-
course j the mane ofl the next lecturer,
Mr. Fields stated th t it was Wendell
Phillipe. Hardly ad the applause
followiteg this announ ement died away
than .9.• ;small boy got 4p on oee of the
seat; near the platforri, eud, beckoning
to Mr. Fields with o tstretched hands,
asked eagerly

tor, pitiful of his h lpless condition,
stooped over him, an said:

that I can get you ?"
In a whisper so wea and hoarse as to
be inaudible unless th doctor put his

dying man answered
"Cabbage."

he reflected that Pat was dying, 'and
that nothing„eould cm e or kill him now.;
it seemed a kindl t ing to fulfil his
last wishes; so he went out into the
garden, and, cuttin a large, fresh cab-
bage, divided it into ( uarters and laid
one of these sections ilose to Patrick's
lips, guiding his hel less hand into a
place that propped he cabbage up
against his mouth; anc then De. C. sat
