In rejecting so large a proportion of the Christmas stories which we have re- ceived from the public -school contribu- tors in competition for a prize], it can he asserted quite positively that we have deprived our readers of much enjoy - rent. In heaven the least will be great- est; in these stories the worst were the Lebt. If readers doubt this, let them peruse the following selections from the "rejected" :- Cora Brown was fortunately the pos- sessor of a birthday, for she was the daughter of rich friends. When my brother was 11 years 6 months and 10 days old he was obliged to go to work. The carriage wheels ha not only 1 broken the bones of the \I) .essar girl's ast leg, but the cords also were severed as well. Nettie lifted the little girl into her carriage, and when they were seated - comfortably asked her name. When the beggar girl reached her poor home she sprang to her mother, hugging and kissing her. But they knew they had something in their hearts better than a Christmas tree. They had Jesus in their hearts, and they had only a few potatoes and some salt. Norman was a dear, bright, but thin little boy. Let us but look back to ten years alter. Little Harry was in the icy water. Only one hand was visible'and his low, tragic moans atttacted Mary's atten- tion. A rich millionaire. The bells tolled merrily. When Mr. Johnson took to love of drink so much it made his family on comfortable. She forgot the Lord and all his bless - hip and after that she went and got xrakr;ied. He walked down one of the main streets of Scotland. The only heat they had was from the end of a candle a poor woman had given them, and it was rather cold. You will suddenly come upon a large b4ilding six stories high and one square block long. Drifting suns and winds. I am waiting for the angels to come and take me, but I'm afraid their wings ate numb with cold, so they can't fly any more. "How long is it since your mother died ?" asked Mrs. C- in a cheerful t6ne. At the opera she wore a white brocade velvet. Her dress was low-necked and sleeveless, yet she looked so sweet that- gir Vale was so proud to see people stare ai her, though jealous, and she wore winter -green colored gloves that reach- ed to the elbow. Christmas is the gloriest time ot the year. The widow immediately fainted. Bob 0 the pepper box and held it under his other's nose, which brought her to. The Jews celebrate Christmas in the summer. s Two carriages were strolling with great speed. The snow was falling so fastly. .fler father had left them to hunt his fortune among the Indians. We celebrate Christmas day in honor of Christ, just as we celebrated in Chi- co when President Cleveland was here . As she entered the room a cold, damp smell met her sight. I will remark to satisfy the reader that these years were spent amid the cloudy sorrows and sunshiny joys by which everybody's childhood is inter- spersed. And the tear rolled down the corn- Inhnicative's face. One by one the shades of night arriv- ed until at length they were all in ses- sion, assembled in their vast halls dis- eussiog mysteriously the destinies of men. With this he burst down sobbing like a child. Frank's mother said that it was the happiest Christmas she had spent since the death of her daughter. Willie went to meet them. He shook the little fellow's hand bitterly and also shook the little girl's hand so that her cheeks were red. He promised her soundly. Eva was a pretty little girl, but not smart, being the only child. In the year 1879 Mrs. It- was_ given a very tine sewing machine. They had three children --red, white, and blue. She fell down, scattering her senses in every direction. My father desired me to marry a bank president, a handsome, reckless man, tond of naught save the gaming table. She threw her arms around his neck. _ Cfseorge blew his nose to cover his em- barrassment. They began to have rather hard times. Henry died, the horse was stol- en, and all that remained was the dog. She suffered terribly with her arm; which was sprained and. not broken as they judged from her screams, which was owing to her delicate constitution. Theendof my story is that Johnny learned not to be so awful greedy and selfish, and now ends my short and sim- ple little story with good -by to all. "Vat I dell you, vat I dell you n shouted the Irish man. His poor mother had died a few months before in a state of poor health. A plump complexion. At 7 o'clock Christmas eve morning, it started for a cold frosty day. Lelia, without a moment's hesitation or cowardly contemplation, proceeded to turn a graceful somersault on the long-suffering lounge. (Age of Lelia, 12 years.) As Providence would have it, the cow, their only support, died. The widow was in great sorrow and prayed for help. They then beard the mooing of a cow. They quickly lit a -lautern to see from whence the sound came, and they found a cow tied to a tree, with a cord around its neck, bearing these words : -" I wish you a- merry Christ- mas. The minister's wife had nine small children, each of which was one year younger than the other. Though poor, she was a diligent woman. Do you think, little reader, that Jesus hung up his stocking Christmas- eve to be filled by Santa Claus': If you do you are much mistaken. And why did he not ? One reason was that he had none., And why had he none s Because he was born in the torrid zone, where stockings are never used, nor are they to this day. Now, dear Mr. Editor, please print this story, because I want it to enter the heart of some kind person to help a poor etaild. And I wish you a merry Christ- mas and a stocking full of love and specs. -Travellers' Pecord. re- schemes having such an object. In this • 1. eity, for instance, a proposal to pur- dhase, atwhat seems not an extravagant figure, a p'altry five acres for a park and playground, was defeated, although we have no recreation grounds in that part of the city worthy of the name. Every space secured in this way is not only a public' benefit but adds to the yalue of the praperty in itn neighborhood. Let us hope that the present council will associate their name with some work of this kiecl before many months pass. Professional Pallbearing. He was a gloomy looking Sort of per- son and his face wore an expression of woe that made one think he had it stamped there as a sort of trade mark. He was clad in garments of the somber - est hue, and from the wide weed on his high hat to the dead polish on his broad soled shoes he looked for all the world like a man in whose fmi1y there was a death at least opce a year. When he came into the street car a sort of hush fell upon the passengers out of respect for his placarded sorrow. By and by the gloomy man was asked if he had met with a bereavement lately. "No, indeed," he replied, "there has not been a deiith in my fanliily for years." " Why, then," asked his neighbor, with more curiosity than politeness, "do you dress in such deep mourning r, • "Oh, that's on account o: my busi- ness." "You are an undertaker, then ?" "No, I am a pad bearer," and noting the look of surprise in his interlocutor's face he went on : "Some years ago there was a strike in my trade. I am a car- penter, and during one of my idle days I passed a house where there was a fune- ral. Stopping to watch it I was ap- proached by the undertaker, who asked me if I was going to the funeral. I said no, that I knew no one. there. He then asked me if I had any objection to being a palLbearer. I said I had none, provided I was paid/for it, and we final- ly struck a bargain. I made as much that afternoon as I would had I worked all day at my trade'and since then I have adopted pall ,bearing as a means of livelihood. I dress in black, as you see, and each morning look over the death notices. I have found that my services are very seldom required where the funeral is that of a young man or woman, or where the deceased has belonged to any secret societies, and that my most profitable custoMers are those who have outlived most of their companions: If the dead person happens tio be an un- mairied lady past the, mei;idian of life I am nearly always certain ef the job. I find that at funerals the proportion of female attendants outnumbers the male about four to one, and that most of the latter are close relatives, As it is gen- erally the rule to select the pall bearers from among those not connected with the family you can see that my services are very frequently in demand. I gen- erally seek out the undertaker and make my bargain with him, and I average about two funerals a day. It is a nice, easy sort of life and eminently respect- able. You will have to excuse me now, as I have a funer0 in this street and must get off here. " - Philadelphia N ews. How to Select a Wife. Good health, good morals, good sense and good temper, are the four essential e for a good wife. These are the indispensables. • After them come the minor advantages of good looks accomplish- ments, family position, etc. With the first four married life will be -comfortable and happy. Lacking either, it will be in more or less degree a failure. Upon good health depends largely good temper and good looks, and to some extent good sense also, as the best mind must be affect- ed more or less by the weaknesses and whims attendant on frail health. Young man, if your wife is falling into a state of invalidism, first of all things tiy to restore her health. If she is troubled with debilitating female weaknesses, buy Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It will cure her. • Pussy's Puzzle. Gautier, a French writer, had a cat ,who was accustomed to live with him, leaping at his feet on the bed; dream- ing On the arm of his easy chair while he was writing ; following him in his garden as he walked up and down the long avenue; and keeping him company at meals. One fine day a friend, setting out on his travels, left his parrot in his charge during his absence. The bird sat on the top of his stand, while r the cat stared at the strange sight. Gautier followed her thoughts in her large green eyes, and read there dearly the words, "It must be a green chick- en!" Thereupon Pussy jumped down from his writing table, and assumed, in a dark corner, the air of a panther in the jungle, .crouching flat down, the head low, the back, stretched out at full length, the --elbows out, and the eyes fixed immovably on the bird. The poor parrot had followed all her movements wit -la nervous anxiety ; he raised his feathers, sharpOed his bill, stretched his claws, and evidently pre- pared for war. The cat lay still, but Gautier read again in her eyes, "No doubt, though green the chicken Must be good to eat. " .Suddenly her back was arched like a bow that is drawn, and with one superb bound she was on the. perch. Tho parrot seeing the great danger, lifted up his sharp, eager voice, and screamed out, "Halve you breakfasted Jack ?" The voice frightened Pussy out of her wits. A trumpet sounded in her ears, a pistol fired close to her head, could not have frightened her more ter- ribly. All her ideas werie overthrown. Iler eyes said clearly," This is not d chick- en, -this is a gentleman." The at cast an anxious glance at her master, leaped down in. sheer terror, and hid ,under the bed, from whence no threat and no car- ess could bring her out for the day. Parks and Playgrounds.

Abducted by a; Priest. A CURIOUS STORY FROM IRELAND. A remarkable case of abduction of a young lady by a Catholic priest is about to be brought before the courts at Cork. A summons has been served on the priest, Who lives in County Cork, to answer to the charge at the instance of the parents. The young lady is an heir- ess, and the reverend father was instru- mental in sending her to a convent at Virgo, Spain, where she became a novice of her own will, but against that of her family. Her parents went to Spain and endeavored to secure her re- lease before she took the final vows, after which, according to the laws and religion of the country, she would be- come dead to her family and the world and could not go beyond the convent walls. The father appealed to the tribunals and procured a -warrant for the possession and removal of his daughter on the ground of ill health. On arriving at the convent gate with the officers of the law to serve the warrant the lady abbess declared that the bishop had granted a dispensation shortening the term of her novitiate, and, thus authorized to take the vows, the young lady had done so-" of her own free will, ' said the abbess in con- clusion. The'unhappy father retired, his en- treaties to see his daughter even being refused, and the officers of justice being helpless in the face of the law. He waited upon the bishop, laid the cir- cumstances of the case before him and made a pathetic appeal for the return of his child, but in vain. The bishop de- clined to interfere. The parents, broken-hearted, have returned to Cork, and commenced the action against the priest, who, they charge, induced their daughter to enter the convent. This sad case has caused a general feeling of indignation here and in England. The subject will be brought directly before Parliament by leading Liberals, wile will ask the Government if a British subject can thus be taken from -her family and imprisoned in a foreign con- vent, whether by her own misdirected will or not, and no remedy be found. Even the Spanish press are loud against it and demand that the Madrid govern- ment interfere and call upon the bishop to release the maiden. The people of Virgo are indignant, and threaten to storm the convent. Reports have been spread, apparently to allay public feel- ing, that the young lady had died. A vigorous investigation is demanded at the hands of the Spanish authorities. Nothing New to Her. "I don't see why you should sneer at my engagement ring," said the fair girl,' with a flush of indignation on her cheek, as she faced the belle of the opposition town: "it's a great deal prettier than the one you wore three years ago and haven't worn since !" "No, dear," re- plied her friend with a cool, far -away look in her voice, "not prettier; but quite as pretty. It is the same ring." Puck. Dr. $cudder in Japan. Dr. Henry M. Scudder and Mrs. Scudder left San Francisco for Japan in June last. The Pacifica Mail steamer upon- which they took passage called at Honolulu, and here Dr. Scudder made several missionary addresses. On reach- ing Japan the steamer touched at Yoko- hama, and then, within an hour of his arrival, he was speaking in the Union Church, which was erected in part by the contribution of $1,000 many years acro by Christians in the Hawaiian Islands. This was characteristic of Dr. Scudder, who would not take an hour to recover from the fatigue of his tong journey before proclaiming the Gospel in the country which lie has chose -n for his remaining life work. Many of his old friends in Brooklyn, Chicago, and San Francisco would have been delight- ed to have heard this initial address in his new field of labor. There is no doubt that it glowed with the true missionary enthusiasm which is charac- teristic of the whole kScudder family in general and Dr. Henry M. Scudder in particular. His' arrival in Japan was opportune, inasmuch as the missionaries of the American Board, with their families, numbered about fifty, were camping out on Mount Hyeizin, Which is a summer retreat from the plains, located only a ,few hours away from Kyoto, the great center of missionary labors of the American Board in Japan. About six weeks are generally -spent by the missionaries camping on this moun- tain. Dr. Scudder is an old camper - out, and many of his former parishioners will recall his description of summer vacations spent about Lake Taho, in California. This afforded Dr. Scudder and his wife an excellent opportunity to make the acquaintance of the mission- aries and their families, • as well as to recuperate from their long voyage. Dr. Scudder goes as a worker in this promis- ing missionary field at his own expense. Those who heard his addresses on Japan before he left need not be told that he is greatly interested in this wonderful people. His son, the • Rev. Doremus a;e,udder, and his daughter Kate pre- eeded him, and have been earnestly working foi a number of years, being 'located at Nuga.ta. Ifere the Rev. Doremus Scudder is building himself a house on a hill Which overlooks the town.He is greatly interested in educating the Japanese children, and two schools are now in- successful opera- tion. The Japanese contribute to the support of these schools, and seem very flesirons of learning all that is possible about Western civilization. They like to listen to ad tire,::ccs, and Dr. Scudder, will' the aid. of an interpreter, will no doul,t, make a number of these in the open squares and halls of the towns. The English branches are taught in the schools, and the efforts of the mission- aries are directed toward inducingadults to give , up their immoral practices and adopt the Christian religion. The eagerness of the people to learn makes the field a particularly inviting one for missionaries, and teachers are greatly needed. No doubt a great impetus will be given to the wok in Japan during the coining year, and Christian people in all lands will look for abundant harvest there. -C, W. B. in Christian Union. The Nose the Source of all our Woes. At the last congress of German natur- alists and physicians, held in Wies- baden, Dr. Gracy reported several cases of mental disturbance characterized by an impossibility of fixing the attention on any subject, except for a very brief period, or of prolonged mental effort of any kind whatever. This condition, to which the author gave the name of aproita, was always associated 'with certain lesions of the nasal mucous mem- brane and obstruction to the passage of air through the nasal fosse. This is, we believe, the latest accus- ation which has been brought against the sinful nose, Headache, cough, dys- pncea, earache, neuralgia, hay fever, ache, convulsions, and syncope are only a few of the many evils . which this troublesome organ is accused of having inflicted upon long suffering man, and it bids fair to outstrip even the ovarieS as a centre for. morbid reflexes. As re- gards aproxia, however, it is said not to be a reflex, and the mechanism of its production is assumed to be a purely physical one. The lymphatic spaces beneath the dura mater have been found to be in direct communication with the mucous membrane of the nasal fossa, and inflammation of the latter is sup- posed to interfere with the 'elimination of the waste products resulting from cerebral activity, thus leading to men- tal sluggishness. But whatever may be it methods, the nasal organ is evidently responsible for many, if not most, of our ills. Clearly, the nose must go. -Medi- cal Record. -The greatest thickness of ice ever recorded, 26 inches, is at present being cut from the St. Lawrence River, just opposite Montreal. -The Canadian inland revenue re turns for January show a marked fall- ing off compared with the previous month.
