“Don’t, Give It away."
From the simplest. flowersIhy the wayside
Fair wisdom may call a bouquet ;
,A streetmhmsc may oft point a moral;
L, There's‘sansc in —“Don’_~ Give it AWflY-"
If you hear of a choice bit of scandal,
Be it'.‘_‘spic'y" oh tinemiit may,
Don’t eagerlxhunyto spread it, ,.
Do better—fiB’on’t‘Give it Away.”
W hen mastectomy bores you.
Your fellows or friends to betray,
Be polite as your can, but remember.
Be firm, and—“Don't Give it Away}?
Whenaconfidence reels in your keeping—
When a friend to your ear doth convey
Some secret he trusts to your honor,
Take care you—“Don't Give it Away."

Another Pioneer Guile.
Biron—Mr. Jonathan Fitch died a» his

three years, eleven months and twenty days.
Mr. Fitch was one of the early pioneers of
this county, and resided upon the farm
where he originally located for sixty-one
years. He was born in Norwalk. Connecti-
cut, September-.10, 1795, and emigrated to
this county in company with Capt. Adam

of New York City, who returned with him
to their adopted. home in Ohio. Their

In. all the..com‘mendable and elevating .

A New Acoustic W‘ondcr.
CINCINNATI, Sept. 23.—Israel I). Jewett, a
druggist, at St. Omer, Inda, has perfected
an instrument, which-he calls the “Aga-
phorn," which, it is claimed, will, Wllllollt

plex machinery, collect, distant sounds and
carry them to. a . greatndistance without lost
of volume. A numbereof experiments Were
made with .the instrument On Saturday, a

ing into that-Merit, jthreeor four feet

Playing on a violin eight feet from the in-
‘strument, the music was heard at the other
terminal end in the street. «The closing of
doors, walking upon the floor, ordinary con-
versation, the ticking of awatch, could be

ry, employed ICC-II. .Geo. E. Waring, Sani-
tary Engineer, to .take steps to prevent the
spread of . malarial fever‘and , fever ague,
which for scvgraII years have prevailed
there to a great extent. The report isjust
completed. . . _ .
Col. .Waring'says that unless immediate
measures are taken 'to , bring. about a better
system of. drainage and 'sev'verage,,the dis-
case must spread, and the occupiers of
mansionsas well as those dwelling in huts
will suffer greatly. - He says that fever and
ague is caused by the great extent of wet
areas and the number of trees which pre-
vent proper ventilation.
The drainage was found to be very bad,
in fact, of little or no use; yards were pol-
luted by stagnant waters; privies and cess-
pools communicated with many of the
wells used by the residents, thus poison-
ing them to a dangerous extent, and the
non-disposal of a large amount of garbage
and night soil called for condemnation.
The member,s acting upon this reports,
have determined to do "all they can to im-
prove matters, and :liavc called upon the

There, that’s what I found the old man
declaiming one day last December when I'
came in from a'walk I backed towards
the door. The Duke said “what are you.
afraid of ? Never hear blank verse before?"
“ 0, blank verse is it. On. the whole I think
it is,-a London fog corfidn’t be blanked.
But why, in the name of all the departed
poets don't you put some sort of regularity
into the length of your lines ?"
Here I would make the remark that it is
better to leave a pact to his folly and not
try to help him. As soothingly as possible
I tried to draw frOm Somerset the idea he
was trying to express. As nearly as I could
make out it was this. He was sitting by
the window pulling at his pipe and lament-
ing the horrible weather when the sun ap-
peared but only for a moment. Like the
old imbecile he sometimes seems,th Duke
began to speculate as to why the sun so
rarely shines at Paris and concluded that
the sun agreed with him in thinking Paris
to be the quintessence of wickedness. Nat-
urally, then, he would avoid it. Charmed
with his idea he reduced it to a less practical
form and above is the sad result. .
I must say we were both disappointed
I had heard Paris
spoken of as a place where the sun always
shone. 1 had heard of the little cannon at
the Palais Royal which was set of]? by a
burning glass precisely at noon each day.
From September to May, inclusive, of this
past year that little cannon went off just
once. Inferenccs may easily be drawn.
When our “bonne” Alphonsinc brought
our chocolatthc our room in the morning
we used to roll over and ask what the
weather was. Usually she said “ fine" and
we’d get up to find a dark, :drizzling day.
Madame’s oldest daughter had the same
curious idea of nice weather‘ and I finally
got her to define it. It was a day which was
not cold. After one has been long in Paris
one almost begins to 'agree with this defini-
tion for when the thermometer drops down
to forty or below, one’s life is hardly worth
the living. I never suffered so. withthé cold
in my life as last winter yetthe freezing
point was rarely reached, You see there
is an almost nttenlaék of warmth in the'
houses and when one comes In damp. and
chilly one sits down and .stays so.. At our
house (we were inI a more'aristdcratic
quarter then.) the only fire was a half pint
of coke in the parlor andfive feet off one
could see onc's breath distinctly. There
were five huge mirrors, though, and plenty
gliding. - I' .
I don’t wonder so many Frenchmen spend»
their evenings at cafe's‘forthere; at least,
one is warmed and lighted. . We do it, too.
It was at n “ pension” We were whom we
got room, chocolate and dinner, plus an ce-
casional breakfast, for ten francs a day.——two
dollars. Lights and fire extra and provided
by Madame at'tliree or four times the mar-
ket rates. As often, it was contrary to
the rules of the house to buy one‘s own
candles and the Charge was fifteen cents each
for those which cost at'.thc corner twenty-
five cents for eight. ’ ,
We decided to change and hunted long
and laboriously for a new place, going into

within were furnished. We would enter
the gconcierge’s room and ask ‘if Madame
had any bachelor rooms at. reasonable rates.
Usually she (lid not but she rarely said so
and the only way to do was to follow her
all over the house. I had :1 confirmed spring
halt for weeks after thro’ mounting so many
steps As to the Duke, after. we had gone
thro' about four thousand seven hundred and
thirty-two houses that gentleman used to
sit on the curbstonc outside and wait. On
the third dayof our hunt we found a rarity,
a clean house with a really wholesome looking
landlady. She had, she said, two rooms an
cinquiemc at twentydive francs a month
each; would messieurs 'give themselves the
trouble to ascend? We liked her and were
willing to give ourselves the pleasure of it
would not too. greatly .inconvenience Mud-
ame, whom it desolated us to put to so much
trouble. Au contraire and we mounted.
Two little rooms in the roof, the slope of
whichextended more than half way across
the ceiling. . Dormer windows,’t'iny fireplaces,
u red-tiled floor within bit of carpet, furni-
ture which had never been new, or if it had
'lnId long since forgotten it,—.but the eru'
shone in 'brightly on that day, and Madumr.
so irradiated the place w—itli..lIcr prescncr: that
since. And-the longer we stay. the better
we like» the house.
For the benefit of any future wanderer
Iwill give the name Of the house—Hotel
de Seine,52 llue dc Seine, kept by Monsieur
DUj.ll'dlU,—~illlil Madame, who is the real
manager. I can recommend it to.- any one
who wants to be. well treated at Paris at a
fair price. '
No one here speaks English but they man-
age somehow-I to get along with people who
don't understand French and do not Itake
advantage of their ignorance. If one prefers
.to be on the other side of the river let him
go to the Hotel des Trois Princes, 78‘ Rue
Neuve des Petits Champs. The manager
there is an English woman and will treat
one well in spite’of Madame, the proprietor.
Of course a bargain must be made on en-
gaging a room and it is well to remember
that if a room be taken by the month two
weeks notice are required by law before
leaving, if by the week one .week’s, and
.if by the day one can leave any time.
About five francs a month must be given to
one’s chamber maid, or man; for services,
.no matter what is said, is_ not included.
In. fact servants at hotels and cafes usually
..pay for their places or else divide the “ pour-
'bcire" (fee,) with the proprietor. It is well'
also to arrange to provide one‘s own candles
(don‘t look for gas,) and not to engage to
take meals in the house for when sight-sec-
ing it is almost impossible. At great Hotels
like the “Grand" one can .be uncomfortable
at. ten times the money. As atrule beds are
good, very good, and meals bad, very bad.
If one follows the continental plan (and
it is better to “do at Rome as Romans do,’-’)
one takesacup of cofiee or chocolate and
bread and butter on rising, then about eleven
o'clock a regular breakfast and at five or
six 9 dinner. For dinner there are plenty
of restaurants at a fixed price which give,
for two francs fifty for instance, bread half
bottle of wine. soup, three plates at choice
and dessert of fruit,cheese. etc. Of course
it is better not to drink the water pure
when traveling or even plain soda as both
have a tendency to render one mill; for
much moving about. I speak from unpleas-
ant experience. One needn’t go to the
other extreme and drink absinthe, and
neither need one drink'much wine but a lit
tie in the water here is necdfuk—Murphy'
to the contrary notwithstanding.
If you are a man and II smoker I pity you
when you smoke your first cigar. Tobacco
and cigar makers are government monopolies,
and the best to be said of either is that it is
not quite so bad as in Italy. Cheap, yes,
but as Ithe Duke says “nahsty.” Cigars at
two sons are as good as at eight. Ask for
“dcs cigars a dix centimcs, (npaqnet jaunc’“
(ten for a franc,) and you’ll get about as
as good as there are. There is one place
under th‘e Grand Hotel where you can buy
Ilavunas’ at high prices but they lack flavor.
Cigars stores are post offices as well. Stamps
for the United States cost trentc cinq ccntimcs
' to live on the continent.
' MllllNERl AND'FANCY 00008.
. ment is the aim of this Institution. rpecial atten-
for one letter. People talk of its being cheap
It is just the same
asat New York. And I believe that one
cannot have all the same comforts here for
the same money. One can live cheaply at '
New York. The thing lies just here. When
one comes abroad one lives in a part of the
city and in a style we would not be willing
to live in at. home. I can take you to places
in New York and get you a better room with
board for from six to ten dollarsa week than
you can get in Paris for the same money, and
I know the ins and outs here pretty well.
Take our rooms as ‘5 sample,—twcuty_
live francs is only five dollars a. month.
Yes, and a dollar to the servant and candles ~
extra, as the houses are not heated a fire (high)
extra, your coffee and two meals, each of the
latter supplemented by a fee to the waiter
about which there is no choice, etc. And
you’re up' six pairs 0' stairs in a room, as a
friend put it‘lto me not long since, that you’d
not put your servant in. Reduce the number
of stairs and you increase not only the price
of the room but all the other expenses. The
little expenses tell. We have calculated that
living as we do in a cheap way one must give
out at least five dollars a mouth in the one
item of fees. Don't let all this scare you.
You can come here and enjoy yourself at
three hundred a year if you do not travel
much but you must make up your mind to
rough it. All I contend t‘orIis that you could
do the same in New York and that paying
a certain sum for your living expenses you
live better there than here. If you do come
to Paris try not to see it first in winter, for
the bad impression is difficult to effacc.

A Spitz Dog.
A S‘pitz dog came into this office yesterday,
says the Rochester Democrat, in company
with a very handsome lady. The dog was
undoubtedly handsome too. The editors
were all at their desks. Upon a suddcn,cach
seemed possessed of the devil, or an impulse
to get a better look at the dog—a view ren-
dered more enchanting by distance. The
chairs were somewhat hastily 'fibandoned.
The night editor opened a window contigu-
ous to his desk and sat .on the sill, the major
part of his body ornamenting the facade.
The city editor and the reporters struck up,
as if by agreement, “"herc’s no place like
home"—f0r a dog. The other editors locked
their doors, barricaded them with patent of-
fice reports and paste pots, and hunted for
prophetic judgment on the walls of their lit-
tle sauctums. The handsome woman stated
her business. She understood that “one of
the gentlemen of the office wanted a lapdog,
and I thought I would bring ‘Woggy’ up to
see if he would suit.” A ghastly smile stole
over the features of the city editor, and,
from his lofty perch upon one of the cross-
beams to which he had scrambled, with more
of alacrity than of dignity, he assured the
good woman that it was perhaps a mistake—
it must have been the Union. office, and that
if she would call again he would give her all
the facts of the case. lie was a thousand
times obliged to her for the trouble she had
taken, but really he didn’t fancy dogs.
Thereupon the handsome young lady de-
parted with a sigh. 4
“Mighty handsome dog, wasn’t it ?” each
observed, as he resumed his toilsomc labors.

When you come to see’ cm close they got
ofile big eyes, but wen you feel ’cm with
yur fingers, which they bites, you find they
have only got jest enuf meat to hold them
fethcrs to gether. Once there was a man thot
he would like a owl for a pet, so he tole the
bird man to send him the best one in the shop;
but wen it was brot home he look at it and
skewcezed it, but it didn’t-suit. So the man
he rote aletter to the bird man, and said:
“Dear Sin—I take my pen in hand to inform
you I’ll keep the owl you have sent, tho it
ain’t like I wanted, but wen it is dead you
must make me a other, with little eyes, cosI
spose these is about No. 12’s but if I pay yea
the same price for No. 6’s mebby you can
aford to put in more owl."
. Owls is very'wise, but my sisters yung
man says anybody cudc be wise if they wude
set up nites, like owls, for to take notice.
That feller is a coming to our house agin,
jest as he used to, only more, and when-I
ast him what made him come so much, he
said he was a man of science, like me, and
wasa studdyin ornyfthology, wich was birds;
Iast him what birds he was a studyn, and
he said angels, and won he said it my sister
she look out of the winder, and said wot a
fine (lay it had turned out to be, but it was
rainin cats and dogs wen she said it.— I never
seen such a goose in my life as that girl, but
Uncle Ned, wich has been in indy and cvry
were, he says that they are jest that way in
Muddyguskcr.
There was a man‘s house one nitc wich
was a spiritlist, and some folks was there,
wich bleeved in 'it too, so they 01 joined
hands, and set down to a table without any
supper on it, and turner1 down the gas 10,
just a tiny little bit of life. After a wile
there was raps, and the man wich they was -
in his house said: “Wot spirit is present?”
but no anser. Then. the raps then begun
another time, and the man he said the alfabct
over and over, bout a hour, and wen there
was a rap they took down that letter on a
piece of paper, very solemn. Jest then a
pet owl stept out from under a sofy wuuk its
big eyes like sleepy, much as'to say: “I gess
its time this here sayancc was gdin’ home
to-bcd." '
