A STORY OF 8CIKNCE.

A philosopher sat in his easy chair, Looking as gray aa Milton; Ha wore a solemn, mysterious air, Aa he Cauada Balaam spilt oa A atrip of glass, ana slide, to prepare For a mitt takeo oat ot his Stlltou. He took his microscope out of its case, And settled the focus rightly; The light, tbiown back from the mirror's face, Came glimmeriug upward brightly; He put the slide with the mite in place, And fixed on the coyer tightly. He turned the instrument up and down. Till, getting a proper sight, he Exclaimed aa he gazed with a puzzled frown "Good gracious: and "Higbty-tightyf The sight is enough to alarm the town, A mite is a monster mighty!" From t'other end of the tube, the mite Regarded our scientific; To his naked eye, aa you'll guess, the sight Of a man, was most terrific; Bat reversing the microscope made him quite The opposite of msjnifle. - "One sees tbe truth throgh this tube so tall," Said the mite as he squinted through it; "31aa la not so wondrously big after all, If the mite world only knew it!"

Not oniy aid sne live Deyona tne city limits, but a good five miles outside the little village of Brighton. Like most country girls, she worked in the dairy, weeded in the garden, and dressed out of the fashion. Notwithstanding this, Laura was a beauty. The word beauty does not do her justice, for it only signifies symmetry of face and form. Laura, in addition to these, possessed a pure, untainted heart, an independent soul, and an abundance of ready wit. She was seventeen years old at the time our story opens, and wa3 living a busy, happy life in her rustic home near Brighton. She was the eldest of . four daughters, the two . younger of which - attended summer school. This increased the labors of the mother and older daughters with the many little chores performed by even children on a farm. The school teacher boarded at Mr. Vermette's. too. He was a gentleman from the city, merely rusticating in the pleasant neighborhood of B and, as he was not a wealthy young man, though an economical and sensible one, he was teaching the school by wayf clearing expenses. Charles Frazer, for that was his name, was a young man about twenty-three years of age. He was tall, rather slight, with a well-formed, well-filled head; he had deep -eyes, as black as night, and a most remarkable black mustache. Ua was well read, polite and entertaining. . He was from the city, and possessed that wonder-working polish and ease which takes so well with the fair sex. He was never happier than when basking in the light of wondering, admiring eyes, or within the sound of a woman's gentle voice. I say he was boarding at Mr. Vermette's, reader; is it anything strange that little Laura should loose her heart? Perhaps she did not; but suöh frequent strolls after flowers, moss and wintergreen looked suspicious. The suspicious part was, that Charles did not asc the small girls, his pupils, to show him the way; but always managed it so that the small girls were just the ones left out, and his time for going was when Laura must go to see a sick neighbor or ride to the postoffice. And then there was so much lingering and sauntering on his part, and so much blushing and eye dropping on her part; put it all together, it certainly, to say the least, looked suspicious. The summer wore rapidly and pleasantly away. Charles lingered still and talked of returning to the city. Perhaps he did not notice the little sigh forcing its escape from the full red lips, nor the bright drops that lingered for a moment on the dark lashes when he whispered that he should miss her very much after his return. Certain it is, no one could have guessed from her self-possessed manner, that the simple "good-bye" and a lingering pressure of the fingers, tilled her heart and life for many days after. 'Poor little Laura! I almost wish I had spoken to her before I left, for she certainly is the prettiest, wittiest creature I ever saw. Pity she has such rough brown hands and such dresses. But then a very little while in the city would remedy those defects. Too bad she fell so desperately in love. I could swear she expected me to make some sort of confession last night, when we walked in the arbor for the last time. By Jove! . I have been tempted more than once, and last night more than all, to just settle the mat -er by en- ? aging myself; but, no! I'm glad low that did not; for I am not rich enough yet to take care of a wife, as Laura's beauty should be cared for, and I am satisfied she would give her life for me, if need be, so there's no need of uneasiness on that score. These women who love once never forget or hange, and in a year or two I'll come back here and marry Laura, by Jove I I will. I love the little thing, and then she is so beautiful! "Won't she create a stir in our set, though?" . So soliloquized Charles Frazer as he sat looking listlessly from the car window. Although he wan returning to the busy, exciting scenes of the city, he was not quite satisfied . when he thought of the last tete-a-tete under the old-fashined arbor. Three years have passed and we behold our heroine statelier, lovelier grown. She is bending over a coucn where lies a man, insensible from the effects of an ugly cut on the IrTJUJ ' llvl 0UVi &Jr iUliJ I U fcA L 14 1 folds around the most charming of figures, and Charles Frazer could certainly take no exceptions to the plump white hand that smoothed the sufferer's throbbing brow. Patiently she watches for the least sign of retnrning consciousness, but it does not come that night nor the next; On the third day his reason returns and, consequently, he is a great deal better. Laura has just relieved a weary watcher and is chafing the white fdrebead t when the dark eyes open and we recognize for the first time Charles Frazer! "Where am Oh " "There, Mr. Frazer, do not try to talk just yet, you have been hurt and stunned in a recent railroad disaster." "Oh, Laura, and you are watching by my bed side. It was your touch that restored my scattered senses; tut how came I here?" he asked, while T . nr drew back knd seated herself bv the bed. "You were carried in here in a fainting condition, with several others for assistance and uursing," she replied. "Oh, Laura, and such nursing! it would restore a dead man to life. - How fortunate that I was brought here, instead of to some of the other 1 - - T C 1 i( a 11 ..V. rA " nounes. x lcei j u i c3 weit cuuugu w gc uf , said he. raisin? himself to a sitting piosture Pray do not exert yourself Mr. Frazer, if ou only act judiciously you wm be quite well in a few days. We shculd feel very .eorry if you should briag on fever by exerting yourself so soon." "I will do as you say, Laura, but I can talk if I must lie still. Do you know little one, I was on my way to Ihis very place when that frightful crash ocenred?" said he, gazing at her with tender fondness. .."No, sir, how should I know?" she replied, expressing neither surprise nor emotion in look or voice. Well, I was Laura, and now I am here. Three long years nave I toiled and saved, and never a day in that time has your bright image been absent from my heart. It has been the guidting star of my fortune, and the desire to one day to claim your hand has been the fondest hope of my lite?' He was looking full at her, but her eyes were downcast, and she did not speak. I am now, for the first .time in my life prepared to care for a wife I have all to offer you, that a woman could . desire to mike her life a happy one. I love you with all my soul, and I have cause to believe that you are not indifferent to my lave, Laura, will you be my wife?"

'Indeed, Mr. Frazer, I do not understand you, will you - be kind . enough to explain yourself?" She said, calmly, raising her eyes to hid face. "Do not under bland! Laura, do not tri He

with me. You knew, as well as I do, of the love, born that delightful summer, which then 'uurned in the breast of either of us and has burned with the same deep fire ever since." "Indeed sir," said he rising, while her manner was a mixture of gentleness and wo manly dignity, "Indeed! I fail to know of any such thing, and I can not allow you to talk to me in this way." Not talk to you, Laura! lias anyone a better right to talk to you than 1 have? "Mr. Frazer, there is one who has... 44 What, Laura! Do you thus trifle with the affections of an honest man?" and he sank back on his pillow, pale and exhausted. 'Indeed, sir, you most cruelly misjudge me. I have never trifled with -our affections in deed, or in thought." ' 'Did we not love each other that summer, and did we not read it a thousand times in glances, tones, and actions? Speak, Laura, do you deny loving me that night under the arbor our last stroll togetner?" "Ad, that to me, is in the long ago, and I am not responsible now, for any childish fancy I might have entertained then." said she, proudly, while her fine eyes fairly shone and her bright lips looked never guilty of a sigh. Frazer appreciated the picture and thoucrht within his heart, he had never seen so magnificent a being before. ' "I believe I was charmed by your soft voice and polished manners, so new and fas cinating to a little country girl, and, doubtless had you asked me on that particular night in the arbor, I might have confessed as much to you, and " "Oh, Laura, my own darliner. vou own that I was right, that you loved me, as I did you. Oh, can you not now give me a little of the old love, in return for all these long years I have been cherishing the hope?" .Liaura was standing in the middle of the room wim a iook oi proua aisaain on ner beautiful lace. "In return for your 'long years of love and hope, Mr. Frazer, I would propound you a question: By what authority had you any hopes? I do not ask for a reply now, but will leave you to think on the subject; then answer to your own heart not to me. I have neither any rieht or de sire to know it, for within a few months I shall be the wife of one who is the man I love above all others." With these last words she swept gracefully out of the room. "Lost!" bitterly ejaculated Frazer, as he lay faint and weak upon his pillow. Contrary to his own expectation?, the excitement did not bring on brain fever, and within a week from that never-to-be-forgotten day Frazer was able to leave for the city. He did not see Laura again after the day we saw her leave his room. He returned to the city and gave up his life to the pursuit of business, and is now a crabbed bachelor, worth almost half a million. And, although he is as attentive to business and as economical as ever, yet there is a pretty cottage belonging to him standing in the suburbs of a romantic little village, which has been tenantless for fifteen years. It was closed immediately after Mr. Frazier's recovery from injuries received at a certain railroad disaster, and although very desirable property, and coveted by many, its owner stands stubbornly firm in retaining it in all its overgrown luxuriance and rustic beauty. It has been whispered in the village that Mr. Frazer had it all prepared for a young and beautiful bride many years ago, when she suddenly died, leaving him inconsolable. But as to the truth of the story who can guess? Dr. Dale and his beautiful wife live in easy circumstances in the pleasant village of Brighton. Laura is aa spirited and lovely a3 of yore, and seems as free from care aa when she used to gather berries on the old farm at B . Although 6he has three young olive branches growing up around her, which claim a great deal of her time, she always wears a happy face, which ever dimples into a bewildering smile when the Doctor returns at evening to enjoy the society of his brilliant family. Sometimes Laura's thoughts fly back to a certain summer when a trifling fancy held her girlish heart captive; but she dismisses it without a sigh, and turns to answer to the Doctor's call. And who shall say that she is not happy? flow New England Ministers Discuss Amusements. Philadelphia Times. Some of the ministers of New England are about to have their hands full of work, if we may judge by the nature of the discussions in which they are engaged. A Springfield preacher takes up the subject of amusements. It has been supposed by some people that this subject had been talked dry. However dry some of the talk may have been which has been uttered in connection with it there is evidently more talk left. The 3pringfleld dominie wants to cut his follower off from those pastimes which are usually considered harmless and productive of wholesome pleasure. From his pulpit he opens his batteries on chess, chequers back gammon and croquet, and denounces them as exceedingly sinful. One of the difficulties in which such men generally leave their hearers is the omission to prescribe games and amusements which are worthy of the time and attention of Christian people. His followers, thus left in the dark, naturally look with disfavor on all games and with distrust on the people who engage in them. The religion of these folks becomes ii due course of time as gloomy and morose as that of their spiritual guide. The ministers of Boston have announced their intenti m of taking up a kindred subject as soon as summer lassitude shall give way to. the bracing breezes of early autumn. They are going to discuss the theater question in all its length and breadth. "The theater should the aim be to exterminate or purify it?" is the shape in which the topic is annonnced. The gentleman who will discuss this important question represent every shade " of thought. There is the rigid old New England dominie who has, ever since he can remember, been in the habit of having his own way. , Ha considers the theater from the devil, and wants to see it swept into the bottomless pit. Then there is the brother who is not quite so strict, and who sometimes lets his children see a play. A word will be heard from the brother who once, while in another city, wandered into a theater, saw part of a play and, to his wonder, came out without being 6truck dead by lightning from Heaven. These men will possibly be followed by some good brother who baldly went in person to the theater to see what it was like. He did not pull his hat over his eyes while there, nor did he hide behind some big ;na:i as he came out. He has discovered that a good play is not as bad as some people think. While he thinks there are things in the theater which are not quite as good as they might be, be does not believe they can be reformed bv passing resolutions or by deter mining to blot the tneater out oi existence. A great many excellent people are of this brother's way of thinking and doing. The discussion is Decoming more and more active in many religious circles. Training Girls in Russia. , . From a German Paper. In Russia considerable attention to the training of girls is paid in some provinces; especially in Finland. There are schools for male and female teachers, in which they learn to do wood carving, to manufacture boots of all kinds, weave baskets plait straw hats, make brushes, spin and weave and are taught other useful arts. There is also a union for the furtherance of industry at Helsinefors, which gives a good artistic trainincr. teaching drawinc of all kinds, sculpture, painting on glass and tin, all sorts of ornamental writing- bookkeeping, etc. There are about 125 girls and about half as many boys, and - they turn out very good work. .

A "NEW YORK ORFUN" IN THE WEST.

He Decline to Grow Up With Detroit and ,.' Prefers to "Flte Injuns." Detroit Tree Press. One of the little lambs picked up in the streets of New York by Whitelaw Reid and sent West to find a home was adopted by a Detroit family about two months ago, and ere this is published' Mr. Reid has recievcd a big postal card announcing that his dear lamb has gone "West to fight Indians and that he needn't mind about sending oa another to take his place. This New York lamb was thirteen years old. He said so at the depot on his arrival, and half an hour later he reiterated the statement at the house and added: "And if you don't believe it, then call me a liar! That's the sort of springgun I am, and don't you forget it I" They didn't torget it. He gave them no chance to. He ate with his fingers, wined his mouth on his sleeve, and gave the family to understand before supper was over that he didn't come West to have his hair 'combed or his face washed as a regular business. On his I first evening he slipped out, had three fights and stole a dog, and when hunted up he was about to take his beer in a saloon. The family expected to wrestle with the boy for a while and they didn't sit down on him until it became a painful necessity. During his first week he Btole $5 in money, a cold chain, a revolver and a pair of ear-rings and he got drunk twice. When reasoned with and asked to do better ho took a fresh chew of plug tobacco and replied: 'Ohl' you Michi . gan folks are too soft! If ' a feller can't have a good time what's the use of being an . a ml an orphan?" On Monday of the second week he sold the family dog 'to a stranger for a quarter, threw the saw and ax into the alley and when locked up in a r.loset he tore a Sunday coat tO' pieces.- It was thought best to have a policeman talk t him and one was called in. He put on his fiercest look and lectured the lamb for fifteen minutes, but as soon as he stopped for I breath the young sinner replied: "Now, see here, old buttons, you are wasting time! 1 Know ray mue gait, i oo, anon you imnic 1 ve come to a villiage like this to be bluffed by anybody, you've missed your train I" He was taken to Sunday-school by the hand, He hadn't been there half an hour when he was taken out by the collar. He seemed anxious to punch the head of every good little boy within a half a mile of him, and he told the teacher of his class ' that when she could stuff Moses in the bulrushes down him it would be after &he had bleached out her freckles. They give him a Sunday school book to fit his case, but ho fitted it to a crack in the sidewalk on his way home. When moral suasion had ,no effect on the wicked youth his guardian tried the rod. - He was bigger than the boy, and he walloped him, but within three hours two of ths nuts were taken off his buggy and thrown away. There was a second seance in the woodshed, and uciore dark a window glass worm $8 was broken. That orphan was faithfully and duly and persistently wrestled with. He was coaxed and flattered. He was licked and reasoned with. Ambition, gratitude. icar anu avarice were aiiKe appeuieu 10 in e i -im-- ij i I turn, but as . ne was the nrst day so he was the last. A few days ago he was told that he would be sent to the Reform School, at Lansing, if there was any further trouble with him. That nig-1 he stole five dollars of the cook, a butcher knife from the pantry, a pie from the sideboard and departed the house, leaving oh his bed a note reading as follows: "This town ar' noplace for a New York orfun. I'm coin' out on the planes to flte Injuns. It will be yu3eless to roller me, fur I can't betook Alive 1" A Woman of Genius Not Superior to Common Laws. Philadelphia Times. ''George Eliot" is pressing tho prerogatives of genius too far. For years past a good many people have looked rather shyly at her because of her eccentric personal relations with the late George Henry Lewes, but it is safe to say that the opinion of everybody whose opinion is worth having has been that those relations if not justified at least were rendered pardonable by the very peculiar circumstances of the case. Unquestionably, the strongest argument in favor of their liv ing togetner as man and wife when they nrarA r-vl Mimwi xrao t ha swaot Iawa thaw I TV 4 U lV IllWilVU Was the gTeat love they bore each other, and the fact that a legal marriage was impossible. Lewes had married disastrously, i; but had ; corrected this error by obtaining a divorce that left him free to marry again. Unfortunately, after going through this experience, he once more admitted his wife to his bed and board. And so, when he met Miss Marian Evans and they fell in love with each other, although in the meantime he had . been forced again to put away his t wife for cause, a marriage was Impossible, since .he could not be twice divorced from the same woman. After due deliberation the critic and the novelist concluded to be a law unto themselves in matters conjugal; as marriage was impossible they would get along as well as they could without it. And because their friends believed that their love for each other was yery'' great and that their separation would but make two innocent people suffer the burden of the sins committed by the true Mrs. Lewes, they were forgiven for the transgression of the law of the bind. When Lewes died, November 30, 1870, the terrible grief to which Miss Evans fell a prey was regarded as still further prov; ing the strength and fullness of that intense love which was at once the cause and the justification of her lapse from social grace. And it was considered the most natural thing in the world that she should announce her intention of abstaining from all writing in the future. Even those who had been disposed to see an ugly and somewhat spiteful caricature of George Lewes in tho "Cassanlow" of "Middlemarch,' felt that their judgment had been' unjust and that here really was a case of true love that would be true beyond the grave. The publication of "Theophrastus Such" did not materially shake this belief. Everybody who thought about the matter at all felt that in the very effort to deaden her grief hard work would be a relief and comfort. But now, Lewes being barely seventeen months in his grave, this widow-by-courtesy of a sudden has abandoned her weeds and bestowed herself at last upon a genuine husband. In the face of this eccentricity of genius the faithful love and bitter grief theories wholly break down. Were Miss Evans a middle-aged woman an excuse might be found for her hasty re-entry into the conjugal state. But Miss Evans is nearly or"-quite sixty years old some authorities say sixty-one. Altogether the case is not a pleasant one rorthe heretofore enthusiastic admirers of George Eliot to contemplate. Even the most enthusiastic of them must admit that tho theory of intellectual beings rising superior to common laws has broken down; that their beloved idol has turned to clay. What Women Should lie. Tineley's Magazine. Very few women art qualified either by nature or training to play the part of a judicious domestic Providence, unrestrained by any other influence, and the abdication of the husband is generally attended by humiliation and suffering to the rest; for without a balance of power we may expect abuses to steal in, whether States or families are victimized by an unfortunate adjustment of circumstances ' For it is men on whom the sterner and more serious responsibilities of existence fall. Men who bear the burden and heat of the day, husbands and brothers who give their lives for their country, and die by thousands of every lingering torture under a foreign sky, they must act often under heavy mental pressure and distress; while women, who are generally led by any other ;bias save their judgment or intellect, may indulge in hysterical views of everything at their ease at and home. Marriage protects women, who, in return, are expected to embellish life, soften its trials,

and with womanly graces, smiles, and kindDees avert the threatening clouds of adversity from bursting in uachecked-violence oa the family circle. It is a fine field of en, thusiasm. action, and enterprise in which:

women may enlist, and the more highly toned their moral ethics the better; they may form character, direct aims, soothe despair, and by their delicate tact, instincts, and perception, assist in mitigating much cruel suffering and disappointment. 'AVpmen should represent beauty of some kind or another. There is nothing a man so much a detests as a masculine woman; she expects to share his equality; while at . the same time refusing . to accept his claims and responsibilities. Wlxat a P-perfect Gentleman May Endure. Fiee Press. At 11 o'clock the other night a Detroit policeman came upon a man pounding vigorously on the door of a dwelling house, and he asked what he wanted there. The pounder was pretty well set up. lie descended the steps, went close up to the officer and softly whispered in his ear: "It's my my own abode, and I w-want to get in." But why don't you call out?" asked the blue coat. "B-Because I don't want to g-give myself away. I want to get into the hvuse b-before the jawing commences.

The passion for lottery gaming is growing in the gay Capital. Even the city authorities hnve fed the fever of speculation by attaching large prizes to certain bonds when a loan is put on the market. When a certain number of these bonds are called in at stated periods, the possessors of the lucky numbers get prizes of 60,000, 40,000, 30,000 or 10,000 francs, and Ahe result is that the masses are always eager to subscribe. Superstition plays a large part in the operations of lottery speculators, and tho serving class of Paris spends itsl eisure in calculation of numbers and in tho observation of omens. A good story is told of a preacher in a French church who one day preached a rousing sermon against lotteries. " 1 ou fancy, 7 he said to' his hearers. "that you will have luck because such and such numbers," mentioning the first two or three series of figures that came into his head, "will be drawn, but you are entirely mistaken." After the sermon, as he was taking: ..rt'u: l : . 1 . n . uis ioocs m me vestry, one oi nis nearers came in and said: "That was a very p-ood sermon of yours, but would you mind repeating the numbers that you mentioned in it?" "What do you wantto do with them?" asked tho preacher. "I would like to get them if I can," was the answer, "for I feel sure that they will win." i " ? ,- How A Spider Caught a Mouse. In the city of Fort Wayne, in the State of Indiana, there happened the other day a very sad thing. It appears that a mouse had taken up its home in a box under the counter of a store. The box was half filled with peanuts, and as the mouse was fond of the nuts he was very happy. One ;day the store-keeper saw a large spider spinning its webb across the box, but he did not disturb it. In spite of the approach of the spider the mouse kept its place. One afternoon, while the mouse was taking a nap, the spider ran a great number of webs about him and connected the lines wkh the old web. When the mouse awoke he was unable to move, and by some peculiar tugging at the lines the spider. drew the mouse slowly up until he was suspended in mid-air. In this position the ppider kept the mouse until the bitter died when the spider ate the poor little fellow's body. CHURCH DIBECTOBT. .1 , Bethel A. H. Church, Corner ermont and Columbia streets.

The Scn will deal with tbe events of the year 1880 in its own fashion, now pretty well aderstood by TeryDoay. from January l until iwcmtwr 31 it will be conducted as a newspaper, written in the En lish language, and printed for the people. As a newspaper. The 8bh believes in getting all the news of the world promptly, and presenting it in the most intelligible shape the shape that wui enable its readers to keep well abreast of the age with the lea it unproductive expenditure of the time. The greatest interest to tbe greatest number that is, tbe law controlling its daily make up. It now has a circulation very much larger than that of any other American newspaper, and ebjoys an inceme which ft is at all tiices prepared to spend liberally for the benefit of its readers. People of all conditions of life and all ways of thinking buy and read The Sun; and they ail derive satisfaction of some sort from it columns, for they keep on buying and reading it. In Its comment on men and affairs, The Suit believes that the only guide of policy should be com, mon sense, inspired bv genuine American rrf ncinlra and backed by honesty of purpose. Ter this reason It is, and will continue to be. absolut el r indenendent of part, clas, clique, organization, or interest. It is for all, but of none. It will continue to praise what is good and reprobates what is evil, takinir care that its language Is to the point and plaiu, beyond the possibility of being misunderstood. It is uninfluenced by motives that do not appear on the surface. It has & opinion to sell, save those which Tun v be had by any purchaser for two cents. It hatea in justice and rascality even more than it hates unnec essary words. It abhors frauds, pities fools, and deplores nincompoops of every species. It will continue throughout the year 1880 to chastise the first class, instruct the second, and discountenance the third. All honest convictions, whether sound or mis. taken, are its friends. And The Sum makes no bones of telling the truth to its friends and about its friends whenever occasion arises for plain speaking. . These are the principles npon which the The Scn will be conducted during the year to come. Th year 1880 will be one in which no patriotic American can afford to close his eyes to public affairs. It is impossible to exaggerate the importance of the political events which it has in store, or the necessity of resolute vigilance on the part of every citizen who desires to preserve the Government that the founders gave us. Tbe debates and acts of Congress, the utterances of the press, the exciting contests of the Republican and Democratic parties, now nearly equal in strength throughout the country, the varying drift of public sentiment, will all bear directly .and effectively upon the twenty. fourth Presidential election to be held in November. Four years ago next November the will of the nation, as expressed at the polls, was thwarted by an abomniable conspiracy, jthe promoters and beneficiaries ot which still hold the offices they stole. Will the crime of 1876 be repeated in I860? The past decade of years opened with a corrupt, extravagant, and insolent' Adimiuistration intrenched at Washington. The Sum did something towards dislodging tbe gang and breaking its power. The same men are now intriguing te restore their leader and themselves to places from which they were driven be the indignation of the people. Will they succeed? The coming years will bring the answers to these momentous questions. The öuw will be on hand to chronicle the facts as they are developed, and to exhibit them clearly and fearlessly in their relations to expediency and right. Thus, with a habit cf philosophical good humor in looking at the minor affairs of life, ant in great things a steadfast purpose to maintain the rights of the people and the principles of the Constitution against all aggressors, The Sun is prepared to write a truthful, instructive, and at the same time entertaining history of 188.
