Last January, on the first evening that a light snow carpeted the roofs of Paris, a closed carriage rolled along the boulevards, spinning like a zebra. It was so loaded with trunks that you would have thought an ac- tress was setting out on a journey. Worse. W'ithin was a valetudinarian, large and fat, one of those whom a trifle disturbs, and who think their final day of reckoning is near when they have a cold in the. head. This one imagined he had weak lungs. So at the approach of cold weather he bundled himself with furs and fled to Nice. He wusa bachelor. Although he could have married at any time, for he had 100,000 francs in stocks. and therefore suited many young ladies, he had been unwilling to dispose of his right hand.~ N ext to himself, the one he loved best was his cook—not for herself, but for her cooking. No one took better care of No. 1. Under no circumstances would he have dis- turbed himself to do a favor. He would not have lent five sous to his father in the street, for it would have been necessary to uu‘outton his overcoat to take out his purse. He was indeed the most extravagant crank to be met with. His most- insignificant acts were on system; he slept, rose, ate, smoked and took medicine with his watch in hand. Many curious stories were told at his ex— pense. For instance, he was so nervous, so irritable, that he detested the songsters in the courtyards. away with the broom. To persons who per- sisted in singing in the street he quickly threw a. half franc on condition that they would leave. N ow, every time ‘ the porter lacked the price of a drink he put on a false beard and a red waistcoat and went under the window, tapping on a pan as a prelude to a. dance. Immediately a half franc was forthcoming. ' . The neighbors had to hold their sides, for there are people who cannot help laughing. At Nice he always put up at the great , United States hotel, where for fifteen years the same magnificent room, well exposed to the sun, had been reserved for his use. It was the only one he fancied, and be occupied it until April 2 at noon precisely, the hour at which he set out for Paris. His name excited mirth. I will not at- tempt an explanation, but everybody smiled whenever he was introduced. He was known as M. J auue. Now M. J aune arrived at Nice the day after leaving Paris at 6 o’clock in the evening. He partook of an excellen: dinner—41 bouillabaisse aux langoustes, a fille. marine, a quail, as- paragus, and a bottle of Chateau ‘la Rose. "With this he hoped not to die with hunger. Then, after having smoked a good cigar to settle his coffee and champagne, he retired to rest. It was 9 o’clock when he ensconced himself in bed. He extinguished the light, and, stretching himself out, anticipated sleep like a dormouse. ; . , But scarcely had he dropped into a. doze when a flute was heard in the next apart— ment playing the air from Faust: “Let. oh. let me gaze upon thy face!“ The tone was sweet and silvery, so the first impression was charming; but the flutist cut short the melody at the fourth measure and repeated it several times, then rested for five minutes and resumed in like manner, stop- ping at the same point. “What is the matter with him?” said M. Jaune to himself. The other continued without a sign of trouble. ‘ At the fitfh rehearsal, as there is nothing so agreeable as not to weary in the end, M. Jaune tapped on the partition wall. The flute was silent. Satisfied, he took a potation from his night table and closed his eyes. It was 10 o’clock. The hotel was almost empty, the greater part of the guests not having yet come in. Suddenly the peaceful silence was broken by the flute. “Let, oh, let me gaze upon thy face!" M. J aune grew excited. “Whew! He is getting to be a nuisance. If this is for an extra attraction I will dis- pense with it.” He tapped loudly and cried out: “Will you stop! If you don’t I'll gaze upon your face pretty soon!” When M. J aune got angry he forgot the dictates of politeness. There was silence again, and he began to get drowsy. Suddenly: “Let, oh, let me gaze upon thy face!" “Fiel The mean scamp!” , He rang for the chambermaid. . “Who is this idiot of a flutist whom I have for a neighbor?" he asked. . “A flutist?” she exclaimed, with a vacant air. “Why, M. J auue, you are dreaming. The chamber is empty.” M. J aune dared not reply. The surmise obtruded itself that perhaps he was beginning. to have delusions. Besides, so long as the chambermaid. was at hand the flutist could not be heard. But scarcely was she gone, crack: . “Let, oh, let me gaze upon thy face!“ And so on about once a minute. M. J aune floundered about and sank under the bed cov- erings exhausted. At 11 o’clock he heard some one enter. Under the partition door he saw a. gleam of light. He heard the rustling of garments and preparations for bed. Afterward quiet reigned, and he slept, as usual, until the next noon. ' On this second day, after having taken a walk on the Promenade Des Anglais for a. sun bath, passed a little time at the club and dined‘composedly, he went up to retire at 10 o’clock. He commenced undressing. Suddenly—just so—you have it: “Let, oh, let me gaze upon thy face!" Forgetting his grotesque appearance in his nightcap, half undressed, he rushed down to complain to the master of the house. “M Favioli, why do you furnish lodgings to musical artists in a house which I thought so commendable?” “Truly. M. J aune, I do not know what you mean. I beg you to believe that I have re- gard enough for my interests to refuse those people.” “Then you have one without knowing it— aflutist—at No. 10, next me.” “I .beg your pardon, M. J aune, at No. 10 is a. most sedate lady, Mme. Kissmicouick, of fly United States, and at No. 6is Miss White- rose. of London.” , “I repeat that there is a flutist at No. 10. Peghaps the lady thrusts him into the ward- robe when any one goes in.” . “I beg your pardon again, M. J aune. Mme.

No landlord inNice wouldbe willing toreceive a doubtful chai-acter.‘ 3Mme. Kiss- micouick is a nfaturefwidow.

This lady goes every evening into the best society, and returns at 11 o’clock." M. Jaune, disconcerted, went back to his room. However, his head was scarcely on the pillow—crack! you have it: “Let. oh, let me gaze upon thy face!" “Flute again!” exclaimed M. J aune. rang for the chambermaid. “Ask your master to come here.” M. Favioli hurried up. “Listen, pray,” said M. Jaune. M. Favioli endeavored to hold his breath. Df a sudden two philandering cats set up a. taterwauling on the balcony. “I hear only two cats talking love to each other,” said M. Favioli. “I hear them, too,” M. Jaune chimed in. ‘Be patient! The flute will begin again.” M. Favioli held his breath. Suddenly, crack, the flute! “Let, oh, let me gaze upon thy face!“ M. Jaune, in agitation, struck against the wall, while M. Favioli burst into loud laugh- ter. “I have it, M. Jaune—I have it. I will pre- sent you to the artist. Please follow me.” He took a light, and opening Mme. Kissmi- couick’s door with his pass key, he pointed to a cage on the table, in which a bird similar to our blackbirds was moving his head about and singing without a semblance of fear. “That is Mme. Kissmicouick’s flute, M. J aune—an Australian nightingale. These birds learn an air perfectly and in the night charm the neighbors.” Somewhat calmer, for it was folly to get angry with a bird, M. J aune said: “Propose to the lady to sell it to me. Go as high as 500 francs, that I may have the satis- faction of wringing its neck.” “Well, M. J aune, I will speak to her this evening.” M. Favioli complied with his promise, but Mme. Kissmicouick sent him walking. “Five hundred francsl” she cried. “I think as much of it as a Chinaman of his pigtail. Say to that fellow that I will not sell my bird for $500, for it is a souvenir of my hus— band.” The word “fellow” touched M. J aune’s sen— sibility; he grew red in the face and threat— ened retaliation. As Mme. Kissmicouick was accustomed to sleep from 2 to 5 o’clock in the afternoon he scraped on a violin, 200 times in succession, the first four measures of “Returning from the Review.” Unfortunately for his plan Mme. Kissmi- couick was deaf of one car. She lay on the other and slept with the serenity of :1 mar- mot. In the evening, still in a perspiration, de- lighted with having silencbd‘ the bird, if not the mistress, he promised himself a fine sleep. But hark! Suddenly in the silence, crack! you have. N 0, you don’t have it. The bird, which had, it appeared, a pro- digious memory, began to sing “Returning from the Review,” without prejudice to “Let Me,” first one, then the other; so that instead of one annoyance M. J aune had two. He Under such provocation he stole with the tread of a wolf to Mme. Kissmicouick’s door. By chance she had not locked it. He hurried to the cage, and with heart full of bitterness threw into it a biscuit dipped in arseniate of potash and tripped back again to his room. But, far from making away with itself, as the cruel lordling hoped, the bird sang twice a. minute instead of once, and then, as though it had two throats, it warbled the two airs together, “Let Me,” and “The Review.” Furious, M. J aune ran again to the door of the American 'lady. She had now come in and locked it, but it gave way under the im- pact of his shoulder. “Madame,” cried he, “your conditions, no matter what they are?” “Indeed, sir,” she replied, her face suffused with blushes, “you have broken into my domicile with a high band. Save my honor! Marry me i” “Beelzebub may take you first!” exclaimed M. Jaune, without any French courtesy. “Then I_ shall appeal to the law.” > ~ Pestered by the endless troubles which pur- sued him M. J auu’e was finally brought to say: “I consent if you let me kill that miserable parrot.” “I will hand him over to you willingly on the day of the nuptials, dear M. John.” She thought that his name was John instead of J aune. M. J aune led Mme. Kissmicouick to the altar a few days afterward. “I will be so disagreeable,” said he to him- self, “that she cannot endure me, and will hurry ofl.‘ to her own country.” Now, on returning from the review—ex- cuse me, I mean from church—he promised himself the inhuman satisfaction of having- . the nightingale fricasseed and served with his dinner. Nevertheless, Mme. J nuns-Kiss- micouick graciously handed him the cage. Zoundsl What a surprise! It was a stuffed bird which a Parisian artist had mounted as a singing bird. In order to keep the wheels from rusting the lady wound it up every evening before going out. ' The other nightingale, which M. J aune had taught to sing “The Review," was that of Miss Whiterose at No. 6. In face of such contempt M. J aune has en- tered a complaint to annul the marriage for error of person—or rather for error of bird. —-Translated from the French for the San Francisco Call. No Flower Language Now. The fact that fashion has found its way into the flo wer garden and decrees what flowers shall be favored and what flowers shall be cut, or rather remain uncut, has of course wiped out what was known as the lan- guage of flowers. And that language is now much more of a dead language than either Greek or Sanscrit. It is one of the very few silly things that fashion has ever blotted out. The usual process is for fashion to build silly things up. It may have been all right a number of years ago for the fond lover to proclaim his devotion by means of a bunch of heliotrope and for the maiden to respond en- couragement_with a few sprays of golden rod. But as heliotrope and golden rod are very cheap and inexpensive flowers, and as fashion is absolutely ignorant of their existence, it is now considered to be in much better form for a young man bubbling over with devotion and a yearning for matrimony to use pen and ink and heavy white paper if he is afraid to use the English language personally, and for the young girl to respond after the same fashion—New York W'orld. Chicago Precocity. The average Chicago youngster is never at aloss for a word or a loophole. One little one, who has been cross and fretful lately, was corrected by an elder sister several times without avail. Finally the elder sister said: “You have been very naughty lately, Eliza, and I think you should pray to be made bet- ter. I wish you won] ” Always ready and willing to oblige, the youngster knelt in prayer that same night, and, addresing the heavenly throne, said solemnly: “I pray that t' Lord will make me better, and—‘if at flrat’youdon’t succeed,«try, tryaglain.” Good :fiults are already apparent—C icago Her- HELP THE' BOYS ALONG. EX-naiESIbENT ‘MfcosH, ON_ THE VALUE OF. _AN EDUCATION. A Chance for All Young Men—Without Much Money They May-Secure and 'Edu- cation and Make Themselves Useful. Words of Wisdom. There is at this moment a vast number of young men all over the country who have a deep and burning desire to have a. college ed- ucation, but who from straitened circum- stances know not how to obtain it. I am to try to help them. First let the youth settle with himself whether he has such a. taste and talent for learning and such a strength of character and purpose as will carry him through the diffi- culties which he will have to encounter as he passes through school and college. If he has not, let him betake himself to some kind of labor or business, rather than enter upon a. struggle in which he will probably falter and fail. But if he has, let him follow his incli- nations, and in the end, God sparing him, he will be sure to succeed and find many means of enjoyment and usefulness provided for him. EDUCATING HIMSELF. He will first have to look out for a school where the branches leading to a college en- trance are taught. It is necessary that he should have some teacher, professional "Or non-professional, to start him. If he can continue with his teacher he should do so. But if he cannot be may to a large extent educate himself. In Princeton college some of our brighteSt and most solid students have been, to a large extent, self educated, getting occasional aid from their minister, or from a college alumnus, or a stray teacher. A youth thus trained may acquire a robustness of mind never acquired by those who have been depending all along on others. While he is pursuing this course, with a teacher, if possible, without a regular in— structor if he cannot have one, let him send for a college catalogue, which he will get for nothing or for a trifle, and let him examine it carefully in order to direct his studies. In order fully to comprehend it he should con- sult with his teacher or minister, or a college graduate. Meanwhile he may have to en- gage in some work bringing a small remuner- ation; the best office he can get is that of an assistant teacher. Whatever he does," he should reserve his evenings for study. In nearly all American colleges there are scholarships which may not fully sustain him, but will help him and at least pay his tuition. Let him apply for one of these, and by perse- verance he is sure to get it. By means of the catalogue, or by private inquiry, he will find what the expenses of the college are for the year. There are good colleges in which he ‘can struggle through for $300, or even $200 a year in addition to his scholarship. In the summer vacation of three months he may be able to get remunerativc work in some house of business, say as a. clerk or temporary assist- ant; in the harvest field, which will give him health; in hawking books, which will show him the country; as waiter in a hotel, or in some chance job, any one of which will give him a knowledge of the world and business habits to make his scholarship money avail— able for good. All such employments are re- spectable and actually respected when the character is good; more so, and will raise him more in the esteem of his friends and the public, than a. constant dependence on elee- mosynary aid. ,. . GOOD CONDUCT AND DILIGENCE.’ But he may get friends to aid him who will not interfere with his independence. It may be that the congregation of which he is a member, more especially if he is going forward to the ministry, may help one who is helping himself; or some lady or gentleman noticing his perseverance may encourage one who is evidently so anxious to improve himself. If his means fail him, he may retire from college for a year or two and engage in some useful em- ployment, to return with perhaps a more ma- ture mind. Let him all the while be securing the friendship of his professor and his fellow students, not by cringing or fawning, but by good conduct and diligence in study, and they may tell (if offices which he can fill, and help him to secure them. Give us a young man with fair talents, with good moral character and with perse- verance, and under the good providence of God, which he should always seek to watch over him, and he is sure to succeed in spite of all discouragements and difficulties. I can claim that when I was a college pro- fessor or president I had always great pleas- ure in encouraging such struggling young men. Now in my retirement I have no great- 'er enjoyment than in following the careers of those who have studied under, me, many of them having attained high and honorable positions in the church, at the bar, in medi- cine, 'or in business. I can count eighty-seven professors or presidents of colleges—seven in Ireland and eighty in America—who studied under me. ' I get occasional letters from old pupils in South America, in India, in China and Japan, occupying useful positions as this sionaries and .in dozens,of other fields. ' A SAMPLE CASE. One case may be a. sample of others. When I was professor in Queen’s college, Belfast, Robert Hart, who had been the first student of his year and the first in my classes of phil- osophy, came to me after graduating and said: “You have given me a high education, but I do not know what to make of it.” I asked to what denomination he belonged, and he told me that he was a Methodist, and I suggested that he might become a Methodist minister. But he replied that he had no call. I inquired whether he would go on to law, and he said: “I am the son of a. working miller. The training for law is very expen- sive and my father has no more money to spend for me.” I .told him I would keep his case before me. Shortly after the distin- guished statesman, Earl Clarendon, asked our president to send up a student to compete for a position in the consular service in China. - I got him appointed our .candidate and he stood first in a. competition open to every col- lege in the British dominions. He went to China, rose to be a high mandarin, became collector for the whole external revenue of China, was appointed by the British govern- ment ambassador to China, was made a bar- onet by Queen Victoria (Sir Robert Hart), established himself a university to give west- ern learning to the Chinese, and is now ac- knowledged to be about the ablest and most influential man in that great empire. But this is not the best part of my story. "Afew years ago he wrote me, saying: “I owe much to you. I believe you have a. son in Princeton college; let him graduate and. then send him out to China, and I will pro- vide for him for life.” We did not accept the offer. But I was greatly touched by the incident. I mention these things not to gratify any 'personal- vanityI may have, but simply to encourage young men to cultivate their minds. I have spent thirty-six years of my life in teaching students. Now when I have to cease from this work I have great satisfac- tion in writing this paper to stimulate young men to devote themselves to study and thew .byseek to rise to positions of usefulness.— James McCosh, «ax-President of Princeton College, in New York Mail and Express. ‘ 2"1'9m Chewing Ministers. ' When Rev. Dr. Tiffany, of Minneapolis, preached in Chicago his brethren all knew that, he loved line out, because he made no secret of the chewing habit.‘ He was a. regué lar attendant at these Monday morning “min- lsters’ meetings” Which the average reporter hates, but which are really enjoyable on ac- count of the bright sayings and clever witti- cisms of preachers who do not think they are forbidden to indulge in a hearty laugh be- cause they occupy a pulpit. While Dr. Tif- fany was a participant in these meetings the tobacco habit came up for discussion one morning. A well known Lish0p4Was' preside ing. One after another the brethren arose and condemned the use of tobacco in any form. Then one of them, during a lull, said he would like to hear Dr. Tilfany’s ideas on the subject. The big doctor arose. “I chew tobacco,” he said, “and you all know it. Now, I would like to have all those' who do not use tobacco rise in their seats.” There was a grand uprising. “Remain standing, please,” said the doctor, as he looked over the cadav- erous men standing before him. “Will those who use tobacco please step forward here?” he said, and a half dozen sleek looking par- sons walked up and joined him. “Stand up, bishop; you’re a chewer,” he said to the pre- siding divine, and he joined the group. Dr. Tiffany then looked over the thin fellows who tabooed tobacco, turned to the healthy look- ing men around him and said: “Brethren, I think we are doing pretty Well.” The argu- ment was unanswerable.—Chicago Herald. A Snare and Delusion. If a man has weary nerves and a thump- ing headache nothing prevents his coming home and tying a towel about his brows like a Turk, and being as grummy as one the rest of the evening. But a woman in the same case can only look longingly at her old wrap- per and then go and painfully build up her Psyche knot and an agreeable smile of ex- act! y the right angle, else she will hear that “Hang it! It’s enough to drive a. follow to his club to have an untidy wife lying about on the sofas!” and that “the deuce knows why a woman always manages to look pretty before marriage and never after.” In fact, being a woman at all is a snare and a delusion. It sounds very, very nice, but it’s awful. A woman isn’t even allowed to grow old in peace. Groin g the course of all nature is just the worst crime she can commit. If she isn’t married her brothtrs don’t forgive her for it, and if she is married her husband won’t. So there it is; a. bore any way you look at it. ——Exchange. A Giant of the Forest. Undoubtedly the largest stump in the state of \Vashington is the one located just below Snohomish City, on the farm of W.'S. Clay, says The Seattle Press. It is a huge cedar, and its diameter is 20 feet—a surface sufficient for forty men to stand upon. The tree was burned down some sixteen years ago, and its wood was used for fence rails, shingles, etc. There was enough material in the tree to fur- nish rails for the fencing of a large Texas farm. - The stump was photographed when five horses, standing abreast, three feet apart, and thirty men were upon it. Such a. photo is now in possession of the writer and others in Snohomish. A circle whose diameter is 20 feet must be 63 feet in circumference and contain an area of 314 square feet. The tree belonging to the big stump was 80 feet in height, and its volume was, therefore, 6,374 cubic feet. This was a giant! Poetry has landed the majestic oak, but its size is often eclipsed by Washington’s cedars. As She ‘Is Writ in Japan.

They are supplied gratis by a firm in Chicago, who makes its money— and lots of it, too—from the advertising print- ed in the books.
