WH EN LISA SINGS-A PASTORAL.
When Lisa sings thedoveghirds cease their song,"
With greedy joy theyvdrlnkln every nois,..
And nearer to her bowol‘thzegeigladly’throng,
To learn the sweetness of, mggic‘throatl
Such haimony from heaven she must have}
stolen,
For angels listen as her trillings skyward float.
When Lisa sings the zephyrs, ‘raptured, sigh,
The roses blush with'oonscious happiness;
The echoes pause, not daring to reply,
, The brook stands still, her witchery to con-
fess,
And all the world is hushed as her soft warbu
lings rise, :
Forgetting life is life, the singer‘s soul to bless.’
When Lisa sings! unto my ravished ear
Each luscious note unfolds love‘s golden tale;
With thrilling pulse, made hold with mine own;
fear, _ .
I breathe tholove no longer I can veil;
And melody unpent, of . sweetest: heart . joy born,
Bwells in each-throb .breast as dreamland,
way we sell. . J. Adair Fitz Gerald.
A WIFE’S ECONOMY.
Mr..and Mrs. Blossom‘were new stars of a
fine brilliancy but of .smallpmagnitude in the
societyof Warrensburg. Alexander Blossom
and ‘Minnle‘Blossom had been married for
oneshort year, which time seemed to them
just one long summer‘s day. There are sev-f
oralmarried people unlike Alexander and
Minnie, for these were never happy except
when they were tmether, and when they,
were together never unhappy for a momentf
When Alexander came in from business he
always instituted a search for the brown
hailed, brown eyed girlpvho was waiting for
and when he began to despair she
would start out of a certaiu~passageway,
withka gay laugh and ask him where his
eyes were. 0f course,under these circum-
stances, it was necessary for her to taken .
good, uare look at his eyes to determine
if "they were the same as ever, and 1’2”“
Occurred some of those mpnlilfwtation;
foolish 10 call foo is ness. an
31133 only stopppgd’pwhen the genial house-
maid came to announce that dinner wasl
served. Of course, the housemaid did 'not_
say, “Dinner is served;” her proclamation
verbatim was, “Come, now ;” but the mean-
inngas the same. I have omitted to say that
Minnie was not very;tall;. that she was re-
markably healthy and deliciously plump. Her
lips wcro as near‘ bursting with fullness as
cherries after a rain; her forehead was low,
and her eyebrows, heavier than the ordinary,
made her ’ just so much the more magnetic.
There was nothing wonderful about Alexan-
der. You will comprehend Alexander at
once when I say that he received $100 a
month, which he did not earn. However, he
firmly believed that in some mysterious way
his labor brought large returns to his em-
players.
With 3100 a month the Blossoms had to
live. Fortunately, they had no rent to pay;
the market books, under Minnie’s care, fig-
ured up reasonably, and the domestic was
kind enough to demand but $15 a month.
One~day Alexander came home from his
alleged business looking nice and sweet, and
aka looking for Minnie. The latter rushed
out from the unexpected place in which she
always hid, caught him .around the neck,
asked him where his eyes were, put a. raptur-'
oils kiss just below his camel’s hair mustache,
and. cried, “What do you thinki” ' '
The sagacious husband implanted a rap-
turous kiss just. below where Minnie would
have had a splendid‘ brown mustache had she
been in that line, and; replied that he didn’tj
know. He also demanded advice as to whatl
it was appropriate to think. Minnie then.
explained that a letter had come addressed to
him, that it looked like wedding cards, that,
she had—had opened it, and that it wasn't
wedding cards after all.
.Some men, hearing of a mysterious letter
opened by a loving wife, would have experi-
enced a feelipg of vague unrest. Not so
Alexander. He silently weighed the merits
of some hasty falsehoods and inquired bravely
what the letter was.
“An invitation to join the Warrensburg
Social club,” said Minnie, “and I have been
thinking of it all the afternoon.” So she
had, in her womanly way; she had been
thinking what dresses she could wear. “Isn’t
it nice?” she cried. “Now, say we can go.”
“Of course we can go.”
The unguardedness of this answer was
essentially masculine. Women,.on the con-
trary, always begin by refusing, and after-
ward allow themselves to be argued into any-
thing whatever.
“Then you must get adress suit,” said Mrs.1
Blossom.
These were, indeed, strange words. They
conveyed the revoking idea that the fashion-
able Alexander had nothing in dress more
formal than cutaways or Prince Alberts.
How,,then, had he been married? The ex-
planation throws light on a very dark pas-
sage in Mr. Blossom’s life—his dress suit had
been pawned; and worse, the time of redemp-
tion had expired.
“I can’t go,” he said, resigning himself to
Fate with" a. large F.
“That’s it," cried Minnie, delighted; “I’ve '
been "figuring it all up, and you can go."
Here she ran into the next room, and in one
second returned with a sheet of legal cap1
bearing very illegal looking figures. “Now,
look at thisl” ,
Alexander looked, and I have to record1
that he was not shocked. The figures and
their method were about as nearly like those ,
of an ordained bookkeeper ‘as Mr. Blossom’s
own.
“We’ve got to be economical for two
months, you see,” said Minnie. “There it is,
all on paper.”
The indisputable document ran thus:
“Grocer, 850; J one, 815; butcher, 815; coal,
:8; everything else, $10; altogether, $78—$78
out of $100 leaves $2.—say $20; two months,
)3
“One of these suits doesn’t cost more than
that, does it?” she asked, confidently.
“Costs 875,” replied the gloomy Alexander.
“Humphl” cried Minnie. “Can’t you man-
age? If it were a $75 dress, 640 would be
plenty."
Alexander shook his head.
“But the club meets early in the evening,”
persisted Minnie. “Couldn’t you. got one that
would do—ready made, or something?”
Alexander was pained. He said be trusted
Ihe.did not speak in earnest.
“Dear I” cried Minnie indespair, “what can
we do? \Ve can’t take boarders, and you
can’t ‘be a book agent. I wish somebody
would leave us somc money.”
“So do I,” murmured Alec with feeling.
“I know what,” cried Minnie, with sudden
brightness.
“Don’t you ask your father for money,”
said Mr. Blossom, sternly.
“I don’t intend to.”
Alexander seemed to think she might have
been a little more willful on this point. But
he tried to look much relieved, and issued
anoth’er command that she was not to go in
debt. Her assent to this was immediate.
Alexander had no more to say.
The next day Minnie, in pursuance of her
idea, went by sicaL‘II to the clothing cm-
porium of \Varrcnslun'g and dcnmnded the
price of dress suits. The answer on; 52755
She then nskcd'ilxc prim.- of the cloth. This

flourish of his pcncu, said: “Twenty dollars",
“How much for cutting out?”
“Well,” said the tailor, “hem! let me see.
You wouldn't want it made up here, you
think? lVell, coat, vest and—about $13.50.”
“I should like to get the cloth and the cut-
ting both for $30, if you could,” said Minnie,j
faintly.
"Well,” answered the tailor, patronizingly,’
“that’s it; we couldn’t. You can’t get Eng-Q
lish goods, you know, at American pricch
lVe have cheaper goods, but"— '
“I should want this," said Minnie.
“Well, as the best figure on that I’ll say
833. We don’t make anything on it, any:
way.” ,
Mrs. Blossom was not deceived, but she'
pretended to be, and with ' another exertion,
of courage asked for a manth’s credit. Then,
She directed the cutting to be done by Alex-l
ander’s measure, already with the tailor, and-
the next day carried her bundle in triumph,
to her dressmaker. That was her ideaN. . Her
dressmaker, of course, was one of that infi-g
nite number of sewing women, found only}
by sheer good luck, who are called “jewels”,
by feminine gossips, and who charge two!
prices. They are said to be “reasonable” as?
distinguished from the real modisi'e. Ac-l
cording to immemorial usage among dress-I
makers, this particular “jewel” of Minnie‘s.
did not set a price, but she said, it was a
"splendid plan" that she would try,‘ and that;
she would make everything “satisfactory”:
What can be more satisfactory than satisfac-'
tory? Minnie departed in great spirits. 1'
Time rattled on and brought the night off
the club’s first meeting. ~ E
The Blossoms' acceptance had been duly;I
sent, and Alexander had been complacentlyl
informed thata dress suit would be provided. '
lIe trusted to his wife implicitly, believing]
not that in two months she wouldcreatea!
wonderful novel, as ladies so easily do—in'
other novels—but that she would pursue the I
more useful and perhaps more womanly plan}
of calling on her father. Men are so tardy.
in conceding to their wives other than do—é
mestic virtues. But one man was about toi
have his masculine prejudices swept away. I
The important night having rolled into War-1
rensburg, Minnie came dancing down stairs{
in “something" the gifted dressmaker “had!
patched up out of' nothing,” and consequen—;
tially bade her dependent. husband to “come‘
up and get ready." He went. The bundle.
was brought out for him to open. It was a‘
regular tailor’s box (such, was Minnic’s craft-l
iness) and 101 on the collar of the coat wasi
the glorifying name of a New York tailor.‘
Minnie, of course, had obtained the name of
her father and sewed it on with her own fair!
hands. 1
Alec, with a full heart, donned the" suit
and stood before the mirror. He cast‘two
careful, comprehensive glances at the trim
reflection, clasped Minnie to the new coat
and exclaimed in many, ,pturesiéiYou dis:

“Aw"y'ou Sitis‘ilédi’rifs‘kid‘fifé Wife, Wish;
iug him to commit himself beyond retrac-i
tion before she divulged the low origin of.
the suit. . ‘
“Ofcourse!” cried Alec warmly, wishing
he were a woman, so that he could gush a1
little. “Satisfied? Why, it’s one of Acker—;
man's best—ethat’s what it is. See the way;
it fits. I could tell that was Ackerman a,-
mile OR.” .
When he had raved for ten minutes Minnie!
confemed the history of the suit. “So you!
see, after. all,”she»said at last, “we women;
do know somethin ." , :
Mr. Blossom loo ed at the coat more crit—1
ically, trying to detect a blemish, but he‘
couldn’t.
“Are you, so .. if” asked :Minnie.
He had to ' , wns.
“Now _how. muc'phfip‘you' suppose it costl",
Mr. Blossom co "a tell. “Now, a mu;
or”—he began. ' \ i
“Tailor!" cried Minnie. “You mean rob-5
her. I counted on'juet $40, and out of that I;
have this suit, which you, say you like, and
this dress of mine. You would have paid
S75'for the suit alone. To-morrow I shall go!
,and~pay up, and I warn you that every cent;
1 haveleft out of the $40 I shall spend on;
candy, every single ceptz” For Minnie had
the woman’s love of extravagance after all:
So this was Mrs. Blossom’s triumph. Noti
a gentleman at the club was better dressed
than her husband. I
They were both in rapturm. Alexander,
especially, when he had convinced himself '1
that his suit did. not proclaim to the world'
the disgraceful truth that it had been con-'
structed by a dressmaker. ~
The next evening, when Mr. Blossom came
home and instituted the searchfor m.,!
she did not leap out at him from her old un-‘
thought of hiding place. She was in her
room and crying. ’
"What‘s the matter?” asked exander.‘
She did not reply at first, but still ‘ ept her'
head from him, but when she had been‘
wrought ,up to the propervstate of sympathy:
and alarm she cried a little more bitterlyi
than before, and qinteunconsclously relaxed
her grasp on a piece of crumpled paper. Al-l
exander divined that this dingy scrap was}
the source of the trouble, and picked it up. i
It contained atrocious writing executed inf
red ink, and looked like the work of a dyua-f
miter. But it was not so brief. It began:§
,“Mrs. Blossom to Mrs. Darden, mans Dress.
Suite,” and after eighteen or twenty lines of ,
trimmings, linings, buttons, extra cloth,l
making, etc, culminated in “totle $39.”;
Under this “tofle” Minnie had written in;
trembling figures what she owed the tailor,l
$38, and then she had made a “totle” of her
own. The dress suit had cost her 372.
“You hate me," she sobbed: “you’ll think
you‘ve married a simpleton.” _
Alexander was not distinguished for a keen
insight into human nature, but with so beau-;
tiful and appealing a creature as Minnie in;
tears who would not know the proper chordl:
“Simpletonl” he cried; and distrusting the?
power of words alone he seized her by the,
waist, “sac jimp,” and gleefully whisked her
about the room, “so you want a compliment
on your financiering? You shall have it;
You have got a thing worth $75 for 372;
made $3 by simply turning over your some-
what dimpled hand. Slinpleton, forsooth;
you are a money grabber! Take me to the
theatre, capital! and I' will give the supper
'afterwards. Eh? What do you think of
thati” . '
Minnie, flying from fears to smiles, fool-
ishly thought Alexander more adorable than
ever, and that evening at the play, although
it was a very fatal tragedy, they successfully
maintained the highest spirits. But better
than » all, when the story was related to
Minnic’s father, ho—knowing how to strike
the right chord—immediately presented her
with a. large check as a guarantee that her
first charming futile efforts at cconomy were
properly appreciated—Hartford Times.
Rebuking a Practical Joker.
An incident which happened at adinner
party of gentlemen recently'vis worth set-
ting down for the reflections it suggests.
One of the guests was known to be a dip-
somaniac, although after a severe strug-
gle he had sucweded in breaking away
from the dreadful habit of.,intemperance
which had come from diesolute ancestors.
His only safety 19. in. total abstinence,
and althou h on t 's occasion wine was
abundant, e did not taste it.
At length it occurred to the host that a
practical jest would be amusing, and by
his direction the waiter filled the tumbler
of this guest with ' instead of water.
There being-no ' erence in the appear-
ance, and there being no reason for ans:
pecting evil, the dipsomaniac raised it to
is lips. The instant hetasted it he com-
prehended what 'had done, and
without a word, hd 1’?- set the glass
down and left the room. His
nearest neighbor, astonished at his
unceremonious leavetakin , turned to'
see what was the matter, w en the grins
of the waiter directed his attention to the
still full tumbler. He took it up, ex-
amined the contents, and understanding
in turn the cruel joke that had been
played, he followed the example of the
victim, and with only a glance of indig-
nation by way of farewell to the host, he
too left the room and house. His neigh-
bor in turn sought and found the expla-
nation of this singular breach of eti uetto,
and the action of the others aving
furnished him a clue to the sharpest
method of expressing the indignation any
' right minded man must feel, he, in turn,
contemptuously left the table.
To cut the matter short, every guest in
turn, amid a. silence so impressive that the
host lacked either the nerve or the pres-
ence of mind to break it, departed inuttex
silence, until the giver of the feast was
left to digest as best he might this bitter
but most richly merited rebuke upon his
outrageous conduct. It is a satisfaction
to be able to add that the dipsomaniac had
the courage and presenéo of mind to gel
into a. carriage and drive home at once,
where he remained until he had conquered
the cravings excited by the taste of alcoJ
hol he had unwittingly taken—Boston

Measuring the Ship’s speed.
Then as to rate of motion the log afiorde
the only means available for determining
the ship’s velocity. N ow there are difier.
out ways of throwing the log. The old
fashioned way is to cast overboard a float
which will immediately assume such a
position in the water as to remain appre
ciably still while the ship passes on; then
by noticing how much of the log line runs
out in a. given time, we can form an opin.
,ion as to the rate at which the ship is
:traveling at the moment. Another form
is a float 'which is not allowed to travel
. from the ship—to speak more correctly,
which is dragged along with the ship.
The float is so constructed as to register
the rate at which it is drawed through
the water. This may be done in various
,ways—proba ly the best is by attachin ~
:‘ screw blades to an axis which is horizont
fin 'the water and parallel to the ship’s
course—tho axis being free to rotate, and
a record of rotations inn given time being
provided] All the methods available are,
however, rough. Moreover, a ship's speed
is not the same for ten minutes to ether;
,‘ and the log ought to be cast at less every
five minutes to give anything like an
fexact account of the progress she is
jmaldng.—P.ichard A. Proctor.

pension was granted for disease, the pensioner is
entitled to :111 increase of rule, and in most cases
where it was granted for wounds or injuries the
disability increases each year. As time passes the
disability of all classes naturally increases. Many
were ntllrst rated too low. and it often occurs
that pensioners urc unjustly or erroneously re-
duced by examining surgeons. A pensioner is
entitled to Increase on a disability not set forth in
his original declaration. The pension laws are

be had for many disabilities. Imakc a specialty

«...... MWflLW
Childhood—Introduction of English Cus-
toms in the Berlin Court.
Tum; the English princes who now occu-
pics the exalted position of empress of Ger-
many, though adored by her husband and the
object of the aflectionate respect of her late
father-in-law, has never been a favorite with
her mother-in-law, with the great chancellor,
the unprogressive aristocracy of the German
court and government and of the German
public—who have judged of her mainly by
the opinions they have known to be enter-
tained in regard to her in those exalted
circles-has long been no secret to those who‘
have been in a position to see themselves the
relative positions of the imperial family of
Germany, and to judge by the way in which
public opinion is influenced in and by the
capital, in this country as in all others. But
the reason of the state of sentiment alluded
to is not far to seek.
Queen Victoria, snfllciently sure of the
solidity of her grandeur and of that of her
family, made it a point, in the bringing up
of the latter, to encourage them to find
healthy amusement in “homely” interests,
and occupations. The royal children had at
Windsor their gardens, dairy and kitchen, in
all of which they amused themselves at their
pIensure, working in their favorite domain
as hard as any other children would have
done, deeply interested in digging and plant-
111g, sowing and gathering, in making cake;
tarts, custards, etc., preparing everything
and keeping everything in order with their
own hands, doing everything themselves,
even to the making of the fire in their kitchen
and the “cleaning up” and putting away of
everything brought into use in their doings. .
One of their greatest delights was to get-
the queen and Prince Albert to come to their’
quarters to lunch, when everything compos:
ing the repeat was of their own providing.
The first gathering of the green peas of their,
gardens was always made a pretext for en-
gaging their royal parents to come to one of 1
these repasts, every dish of which was aIWays:
made by the young princes and princemes,‘
who were very proud of their success on these
pleasant occasions, when their flower beds
furnished a handsome bouquet for their royal
mother and a favorite flower for thepaternal
buttonhoic. .
. 3111:: 111151 Lamas non. .
The first letters from “Vic" to her family,
after her marriage, all contained inquiries
about her garden and its various plants and
flowers, among which was a beautiful rose-'-
bush of her own planting and training, and
in which she took especial interest; and news‘
concerning the opening of its buds was con-7
stautly wired for by the future queen of
Prussia.
The latter, soon after her establishment in
Berlin, was found by some of the stiffest of
the court ladies one day when they came to
pay their respects to the crown pnncm’
perched on a ladder, hammer in hand, busily.
engaged in putting up some window draper-'
ies in one of her drawing rooms. The horror
excited in the minds of the visitors by such
an abesement of the royal dignity on the
part of their future queen may be more read,
ily imagined than described, as also the in-
dignation of their royal mistress on learning,‘
from her ladies the unprecedented demoe}
racy of her son’s bride! '
To all the remonstranca addresed to her'
from time to time, on the score of her lapses.
in the department of royal dignity--from'
which everything like the ordinaryuses of
feet and fingers was banished as derogatory'
from the rules of divine order—the crownl-
princess always replied: “Mamma does so,"
or “Momma approves of it;” and this justi-I
fication was invariably regarded, by German
prejudice and jealousy, as an aggravation of
the offense Thus the young crown princess
roused a vast amount of local anger by in-~
sisting on the wearing of caps by the maid ,
servants employed in her palace. German
girls have generally fine “heads of hair,” are
proud of them, and consider caps, as worn by
maid servants in England, to be an outrage
and an abomination; and the women in the
princess' establishment unanimously refused
to obey the order. But the princes, on,
learning this refusal, informed the household
that she was quite determined on caps being
worn.
xvsr PM ON cars. .
“All the maid servants in mamma’s service
wear caps,” said the princess, “and all those,
who wish to remain in mine must wear them.
Those who will not submit to this rule can
quit my service. Those who desire to remain
must put on caps at once.” When it was ,
found that the princess' mind was made up
on the subject little white caps, like those
_worn by servants in England, were at once
adopted, but the general public regarded the
imposing of these caps as a piece of odious
“English” tyranny. .
The princess, after her marriage, not only
continued to take oatmeal porridge as a part
of her own morning meal, but always had it
served at her family breakfast table, as a,
regular item of that repast. Asmall portion
of the Scotch dainty, perfectly cooked, served
“in little wooden bowls most tastefully carved
and flanked with tiny jugs of rich cream,
was placed beside each plate; and it used to
be confidentially (and smilingiy) remarked
by guests honored by admimion to the inti-'
macy of this family repast, that the royal
hostess was always especially gracious to
those who had disposed of the porridge with
the most apparent manifestions of approval.
That the practical familiarity with the in-
terests of ordinary life, so widely cultivated
by Queen Victoria in the training of her
children, has effectually preserved the Ger:
man empress from the special danger of
royal isolation, is abundantly evidenced by
her active patronage of enterprises of public
benevolence; that it has proved equally effect-
ive within the privacy of her own home is

Hunting for Noah's Art.
A Rumian ofilcial now in this country says
that another attempt -to find Noah’s ark is
,about to be made by. a company, of Russian
explorers. After the deluge recorded in'
Genesis, the ark in which the human race
was saved rested upon the mountains of
Ararat. one of the two peaks of which is in
Russian territory, and is the great landmark
between Russia, Turkey and Persia, not far
from the eastern end of the Black sea. The
summit is more than 17,000 feet above the sea
level, and is constantly covered with snow
and ice—Boston Traveler.
Making 3 Pleasant Home.
Amolher once said she wanted to make
her boys feel that home was the pleasantest
place on earth, and she took care to interest
iher sons early in fruits and- flowers, and in-
:structed them in the growth and develop-
.ment of all forms of plant life. Next to the
'warm, paternal affection she deems the in-
fluence of flowers and fruit: as the most
potent agencies in making a picaeant home.
