It seems as though I had lost all my re-
latives, including my grandmother and the

Why didn't I- put you in a bottle and
bring you down here with me? But I am
always forgetting something. The other
day I went off and forgot my aunt Sarah,
and she's a good deal bigger than you are.
Mr. Ramsay is also a very forgetful man.
He frequently goes off and forgets his
washerwoman. Mr. Ramsay is a very fine
looking man. He reminds me of Mr.

-Mr. Ramsey can read print very well.
I like you very much. I should like you
just as well if you were 12 years older. I
.am very singular about some things.
You spoke to me about a boy who is my
rival. I should feel very sorry to kill that
boy, but he may drive me to it. I am in
hopes that he will take himself into a pre-
mature tomb—that he will choke himself
with a large slice of pudding; but if he
does neither I shall feel forced to load him
with chains and read all my lectures to
him. That will finish him. His boots
anay remain, but the rest will have perished
miserably long ere I get through
You must be a good little girl and alwaye
mind your mother. Never let your excel-
lent mother feel sorry that she is
ao-
quainted with you. If it hadn't been for
her you might have drowned in a soup
plate long ago. And if you hadn't ever had
any mother you might be a Turkey with
the Turkeys. In fact, my dear Amelia, so
conduct yourself that even on dark and
rainy days the bright sun may shine
wherever you are, and that the stars

may never flash so brightly but that you
can alwaye look steadily and hopefully
toward them. Faithfully your friend,

Shoemakers' Secrets.
An old shoemaker tells the St. Louis Globe
Democrat of a trick or two in shoemaking
which he learned when he was a boy, which
appears to be still hidden mysteries to a lot
of the fashionable shoemakers. One of
these concerns not only the appearance of
the shoe but the comfort of the wearer.
.How many times do you see men's big toes
rising in high relief impressions above the
• surface of the upper? Naturally you feel
that the wearer of such a shoe must suffer
.from the pressure on his big toe, and he
does • if not immediately, at some time in
the future. The whole difficulty can be
obviated by providing a depression in the
sole of the shoe into which the toe will fit.
This depression is obtained by fastening la,
piece on the last and beating the sole around
it until it is moulded into it. When the toe
is thus cared for there will be no ingrowing
toe -nails and no unsightly protrusions of
•the upper. Another thing that may be in-
teresting to shoe wearers and shoemakers is
this: A blistered or sore heel caused by a
new shoe may be relieved by taking a small
piece of common newspaper, crushing it in
the hand and placing it under the ailing
heel. The bit of paper has the effect of a
" lift," and forcing the foot forward in the
,shoe leaves the heel entirely frecrfrom the
,counter.
The New Universal Language.
The latest appearance of the question of
'Thou vs. You is in the Volapuk Congress
held last month in Munich. In Volapuk
,all thepronouns begin with 0 and form the
f ollowing series :
Singular.
I. Ob—I. 1. Obs—we.
2. 01—thou. 2. Ols—you,
8. Oiri--ho.
Of—sho.
Indefinite.
On—one, everybody.
Besides these, Father Schloyer gave in
his grammar a form of politeness, " ons,"
but hoped that Volapukists would address
each other by the more brotherly " ol."
The Germans were the only ones who
seemed to think it necessary to have a form
of courtesy, and the Volapuk periodicals
have had a lively but good natured discus-
sion of the matter. But, although the
Muni& Congress had a larger number of
Germans than of any other nationality
present, yet it was resolved, after a warm
debate, that the word " one " no longer
exists in Volapuk, and all Volapukists
must employ " ol " hi the singular and
"ole " in the plural. •Thus the knellof
fendelisna has sounded 1—/Teme Journal.

The Pf4.11 ItoYe InaYed in ith 441hce7 Mor-
s:414114's Pfe•
Thirty-five yeare ego Mr. Barrington
Ledge, of this City, wet a resident of $t.
john'te Nfld. Another resident of the same
city was Miss Christine Graham, a belle
in society. Foremost among her puitore
were Mr. Lodge and Mr. Strachan. The
pretty Chrissie seemed to favor Lodge, but
he was peer. Realizing that he could not
furnish the young lady with a home be-
fitting her station he did not press his suit,
and the result was that Miss Chrissie was
married to Mr. Strachan. Mr. Lodge emi-
grated to this city and started in the knit -
goods business as a 'clerk. He soon became
a menaber of the firm of Lodge, Sheldon & Co.
Although he still held in remembrance hie
early love he deemed her lost to him, and
some years ago married Anna Scott, and
established himself in a handsome resi-
dence on Hill Place. Their domestic happi-
ness was unmarred until the death of his
wife, two years ago. Meanwhile Mr. and
Mrs. Strachan had removed to Ballarat,
Australia, where Mr. Strachan engaged in
business. He accumulated a large fortune
and died a few years ago. About a year
ago Mrs. Strachan learned from her
brother in Newfoundland where Mr. Lodge
was located, and that he was alone in the
world. The old love had not yet died out
in her heart. She wrote to him euggesting
that if the recollection of the past still
warmed his heart she would like to hear
from him. He answered the letter and
a correspondence ensued, in the course
of which he elieited an expression of her
desire to come on and see him and marry
him. He wrote back that if she was
ready to accept theold man she could come
on and he would meet her at Buffalo. She
did not hesitate, but arranging her affairs,
started on July let on the journey of
10,000 miles. She came by the way of
Auckland, New Zealand, Sydney and the
Sandwich Islands to San Francisco by
steamer, and thence by rail to Buffalo,
where she arrived on Tuesday and found
Mr. Lodge in waiting. He found her
changed, it is true. Thirty-five years
effect many changes, but it was into a
matronly, well-preserved woman, who
still retained a generous proportion of the
beauty possessed by her in girlhood. In
him she found a still active and vigorous
man, with clear brown eyes, an erect
figure, and the flush of health on his cheek.
They were at once married, 'went to
Niagara Falls for a day or two, and then
came to Albany to reside in Mr. Logie's
elegant residence on Hill Place.—Albany
Journal.
The Prince of Wales and His Old Servant.
It is not generally known that the Prince
of Wales regarded with deep affection his
old nurse, Mrs. Mary Scarrett, whose
death, at a very advanced age, I recorded
two or three weeks back. He made a habit
of going to see her at least twice a week,
and would it by her bedside for quite a
long time. On the last occasion, as he was
about to leave, she called him back and
begged him to stay a little while longer,
calling him by the name of Bertie, as she
used to do when he was a little boy. The
Prince at once resumed his seat and sat
there for some hours, until the old lady
had fallen asleep. He then kissed her
forehead, and with tears in his eyes, left
the room, never to see his valued friend
again in life. A bunch of white flowers
placed upon Mrs. Scarrett's coffin was
gathered by the Prince from the conserva-
tory at Marlborough House and tied with
a ribbon by himself.—London Life.
Carrying Decoration Too Far.
Mrs. Graham is an estimable lady whose
hobby is house decoration. One day last
spring Mrs. Graham was careless enough
to drink a glass of red ink, believing it to
be claret. She was a good deal scared
when she discovered her mistake, but no
harm cane to her. The doctor who was
summoned, upon hearing what had hap.
pe*d, dryly remarked to her: "Mrs.
Graham, there's such a thing as pushing
this rage for decorated interiors too far."
True Love Banning Smoothly.
She—Do you remember that lovely moon-
light ride we had at Newport last summer,
Charley, behind that cute little donkey?
He (with tender reproach)—Do I remem-

without thinking of you.—N. Y. Sun.

After the execution of the murderer
Pranzini at Paris, a certain police official
obtained a portion of the murderer's skin
frorn an attendant at the medical school
and had it converted into a couple of purses,
which he presented, one each, to MM.
Taylor and Goren, other police officials, as
souvenirs. The facts leaking out the latter
delivered the purses to the Procurator.
General, who dismissed all concerned in
the matter.

SCENES IN A NILE OITT•
The Crowds of Screaming Arabs Which
Besiege the Traveller.
A scene on the Nile is thus described by
a writer in Scribner's Magazine: Girls come
bearing upon their heads and arms all sorts
of articles for sale—eggs, cauliflower,
oranges; buffalo milk, lettuce, lentils, living
fowls, and what not--suoh as are stored in
abundance upon the &wk. Even water is
offered for sale. But the crowd which has
gathered is far more interesting than their
merchandise. The gang -plank is pushed
out and you reach the shore. A rush is at
once made by the donkey.boys for the
traveller, and not until the castigating
bamboo of the leerned dragoman has been
applied to their bare, brown Arab shoulders
can the anxious searcher for experience be
started up the quay on donkey -back for a
"preliminary drive. The town is not yet
all awake. Here and there a watchman is
found sleeping on his wicker bed in the
street or on the portico of a house cir bazaar.
Farther on groups of early risers are found
squatted before a tiny charcoal fire, where
they "pool ' for breakfast and discuss a
dozen dates or a few pumpkin seeds while
they watch and wait for the music of the
coffee-pot. Even yet it is very quiet.
The donkey -boy follows on behind.
rather whispering his " oye-pah" than
speaking it to his unwilling motor. Occa-
sionally he drops a cabalistic word into the
long ears which has the effect of increasing
the donkey's speed. "Gehenna" is said to
be that awful word. It always seems to be
a surprise to the animal, at least, and
sometimes causes him to lower hie haunches
and oreep entirely away from his rider.
Sorrow and repentance are sure to follow
such an occurrence. Now a swirling sound
is heard in the air. Your donkey -boy
pushes you with your donkey to one side.
A. lad clothed in white comes running
toward you shouting to you to "Get out
of the way. Look out for your ears, your
eyes, your neck, for my master is coming."
Then a white ass appears bearing the sheik
of the town. This dignitary, hearing of
your arrival, is hastening to the quay to
collect his fee for the privilege of driving it
stake into his mud. A return to the daha-
beeh reveals a swarm of natives, awaiting
all on the same mission as that of the
sheik. The case is a hopeless one, seem-
ingly, for there is more business than you
can attend to and keep faith with the
spirit under which the journey was under-
taken. Your only salvation is in red.

rending voice, therefore, beg backsheesh

denounced such a course as iniquitous, and
said he would inarnediately adjourn th

• Ar the last session of the German
Reichstag there was it curious instance of
absent-mindedness. Herr Wichmann was
calling the roll of members, when, upon
feeding out his own name, he naturally
received no response. He called the name
the second time in a louder tone, and
finally roared it out like a healthy.lunged
bull. At this juncture his colleagues broke
out into such hearty laughter that the
truth dawned upon him and he joined in
the general hilarity.
"Ir is one of the essentials of literary
success in England that a writer should
never go into political life," writes Max
Eliot in the Boston Herald. "1 was in-
formed that Justin McCarthy had made so
many noble sacrifices for the country so
near his heart that his partizanship has
already cost him dearly in cutting off the
sale of his purely literary works, says my
well-informed friend, and it has also de-
prived him of some of his journalistic
income. All of which dernonstrates the
fact that he is not politic, although he is a
politician."
FOOTWEAR is Cheap. Never Were boots
and shoes more easily procurable than ea
the present moment. The improvements
in shoe -building material of late years ex-
plain the cheapness. A proprietor of a
Portland, Me., shoe house said to a reporter
a few days ago: " It doesn't take long to
make a pair of ladies' shoes. Some time
ago a gentleman and his wife walked
into our factory, and in just one hour and
thirty-three minutes the lady left the house
wearing a pair of fine shoes which were
made for her from the stock while she was
in the factory. These shoes were made on
a single set of machinery and passed
though the hands of the different opera-
tives at their machines. By>running a
double set of machinery and crowding the
machines our crew of 100 men make 600
pairs of shoes in a day, or one pair of shoes
per minute. This is six pairs of shoes to a
man." '
