L t-r.vry clubs are a very pleasant means of epending rpare evenings, and at the same time of becoming wll acquainted with delightful authors, and ot exercising n' taloot lor reading aloud, debatinz, and writing essays. Pertaps debating is the mot popular of these exarcises, and in this country, hero every gentleman is eapcted to bo abld "ti make a speech" when called upon, it ii a very desirable part of one's -education. To ctfoose subjects for debate te not at all easy. Sibj-.-cts that require more information ihau.tue members can be expected to obtain thould bo avoided, for to deba:ocf.n be kt pt up with spirit unless the members svre well posted' oa tho subject Again, only tho?e subjects which admit of a ro&l difierenca of opinion should be chossn. The writer once proposed tbe question "thU Tom Brown's School-Days is the best b-xk on Eagliäh school lifo that has been written." It was a question with which we were all more or less familiar, but we had a rery dull debate, because we were all agreed from the urit that it wad the best. An e.-eay club, whore the members meet, say, every fortnight, and re.td essays written on 6ubjfct3 proposed at the last meeting, Is very piisant, ani 3ods one to take an interest la matters that would not otherwise be at'.enced to. After tho essays havo been real a dijeu-aion on the opinions ot the write-6 may be held. ltea:ing clubs generally chooe some bock tj read aloud, say, one of D.ckens's or Scott's novel, or one of Soott's poms, or ven one of Shakpiaro's piays. Tho char--vctors should bo araanged a, tho meetinc before tbe play is to be red, so that each .may read his part over beforehand. It id well I) ask the advice c f some older person befur? deciding on a play or a book, and wiei ScakiMpctre ii chosen, an Mitioa with notes, such as R lfe'a Plays of Shakspeare, is best. It is nut neca-sary to finish a bxk in one evening, but on book or one poem or our? play should be finishal befotj another m begun. And now for the third kind of club, which h perhaps the moit erj yable of alL Suppose it meota once a week. One evening ws rn y begin a play of Shaksp iare; cn anuihsr we may deb&te; on a third we may road or recite selected pixies of pectry, or a chapter Horn one of Scott's novels, or tbe oxporiencoa of Mr. Pickwick at D.ngley Dall Farm, or a chapter irom . Liitlo Women or Alice in "VVrndtT-L-tnd. Several members are appointed tr red or recite while the othsrs play audience. Then another night there may be acting charade?, and ia the Christmas holidays perhaps a set piece, with a specially invited audience. Uhrdes theae and similar entertainments there iny come a day when ilr. Barnum bricg- his big show to town; then tha club may nold its meeting under the circus tent. And in tho fall, when the ground is dry, and the weather bright and cool, the club may a' range an ex'ra day meeting on Saturdii ? morning, and tike part iu a "hro-and-houndj" chase; or.in winter, tha presi dent, after having obtained a vote of the club, may hold a spec'al day reunion for next Saturday, at nine o'clockon Jones Fond, if the ice bears. ' It is always difficult to find a good name for a club. For athletic clubs in small towns the came of the town may be sufii cient, m the .Montroie Base ball Club; or the niine of some part of u city, as the Chestnut Hill Athleuc Club. In far Western .owns the Pioneer is a go ' name, especially if the club is tbe first of its kind in. tb) place. Literary " clubs may call themlvej after some great orator, or etat"fman. cr author of world-wide lame; for xrople, Webstar, Gtrfla'd, Ilawthome.

The name of Washing n i naturally so commonly used that it would better be avoided. In the case of clubs of the third kind, t il -aorts of names may be used, and they naed not htve anything particular to do with tbe object of the club.

Always remember that the life and inter--est of a club depend on the good teelintr 1 4. eive-nnd take spirit of tbe members. When, therefore, ycu elect a president, choose that one r f your members who by reason of bis age and popularity, U likely to have most influence over the members; he will thus be .able to preserve order among the members without causing any jealousy or ill feelinz, The secretary's duty will be to koep the "records'' of the club, and he should be proTided with a neat blank-book for that pur pose. At the beginning of it he should write the names of the officers and members and the Constitution and By-laws. Of course he should be a good penman. The treasurer keeps the money of the .club, but it is better that the club should have no money in iu treasury, and when any is needed, each member mould be as-

what U required. The Boy Washington Blessed. (Rev. E. A. Rand, in Golden Days What Doy would nut count it an lienor to be abld to say that on his bead a hand had been laid by General Washington? That boy could sell hU locks if he had any, at a handsome price Washington Irving could claim that honor, and it happened in this wav. Daring the Revolutionary War, New York had severely felt the power of the British, bntthit yoke was lifted at last, and General Washington's army came into the city. Wbatahappy day it was! People clustering on the sidewalks, people rushing to their windows, all to see the Continental army go by, drums beating, flags flying, every man's face that of a conqueror. About this time there came into the city another important party a baby. This bby came to stop with Air. and Air. William Irvine. It was an important question what name togivo the baby. , Should it be Smuel, George, or even the homely J ere miah? The mother had something to say about it. She thought of the great Amen can General in the city. 'Washington's wors is ended," she said. "and the child shall be named after mm." In that way Washington Irving received his name. After awhile, Washington was aain in the city. He was now in Ne York as the first President of our country, and New York was our first capital. In the Irving family was a servant by the name of Lizzie. She felt that amid the praise bestowed upon his great namesake the youthful Washington was overlooked. The LVeaident one day vent into a shop, and af ter him came Lizzie, bringing young W ash ?n?ton Irvine. "Ploase your honor, here's a bairn was named after you," exclaimed Lizzie, who was a Scotch girl. The President was not at all disturbed. He laid his band on little Washington Irvmg's head and kindly blessed the boy. IIow little the President knew what he w&3 doing! He did not foresee that one day this boy, growing to manhood, would be a writer good enough to tell the world about the Pi;ident'i life. Washington Irving well paid the President for the trouble he took in noticing, with a kindly air and a word of blessing, ''the bairn'' a Ssotch servant brougnt him. Washington Irving grew up in tho city of New York, which was not at that time a very extensive affair. New York boys will be interested to know that it reached no further than the spot now known as the City Hall Park. Beyond this, what sleepy old Dutch farms must have stretched between liver and Eound, robins building their 1 ests, and plump cabbage growing where now all through tho twenty-four hours is heard the sound of rattling wheels! It is said that Washington Irving was a handsome boy; that he loved fun as does tho race generally, and had n knack at writing. He entered a law office' whon sixteen, and when he was about nineteen he made his firt public effort in the literary line, puoli6hicg some letters in the Morning Chronicle and signing his name ''Jonathan Oldcattle." Ilia brother sent him to Europe when twenty -one, as his health was very frail. The captain, in whose vessel he took passage, made and ugly prediction about Washington, noticing his sickly appearance: " There's a chap'who will go overboard before we get across." But Washington did not oblige the captain by fulfilling this prophesy. He went over tte sea but not into it. His travels bcti(fit:d hi oi. N4 everything wa3 pleasant, but Irving showed a deposition worth copying by all yo'ig people, ne declared: "Wla-n I can not get a dinner to suit my ta:te, I endeavor to get a taste to suit my dhner.'' To make the boat of things was his aim. The years went by. Irving's facility at composition wa3 dUplayed in tbe scribbles ot boyhood, and atter his admission to the bar, in early manhood, he made a very succ-slul trial of hia powers. With others, ho published an odd, witty and successful periodical, whese very name provoked curiosity "Salmagundi." It was designed "simply to instruct the young, reform tho old, correct the town and caatigato the age.' In 1809, there came from Irving's pen a book sure t have readers while New York has inhabitants and Manhattan Island is net a sheep pasture. It purported to be a history of New York, and apparantly by Diidrich Knickerbocker. It was adver tised ingeniously. There appsared in the paper notices ol "a small elderly gentleman. dressed in an old black coat and cocked hat, by the name of Knickerbocker." It was sadly announced that this poor old relic had dia&ppsared. Finally it was published that euch an old gentleman had been discovered in the Albany stage going north, that he had gone off in debt to his landlord, and if the forgetful Knickerbocker, whose name waj Diednch.did not return, a very queer manuscript ho had left behind would be so'd to pay his creditors. This sort of advertising was done so ef fectively that a city"officer set out to adver tise also, proposing to offer a reward for the finding of poor, lost Diedrich. Tma style ot advertising is funny, but it can not be safely repeated. There may be only an ingenious joke in it, but some one might be seriously incommoded. Devices of this sind are always risky. A good book does net need them, and they will not save a bad book. The Knickerbocker account of New York was a humorous, fanciful history, and the popular heart beat warmly toward it. It Irving had been rich the world might have beard littlo more from him, but in after years, pecuniary embarrassments beset him like a thorn-hedge. The genial, handome Irving through life had heeded the conviction of a mission. In 1818 he felt that a crisis had come in his life. He resolved to give himself up to his pen and let tbat be the walking-stick he would lean on. Lat no young person think that poverty is their worst foe. I makes men out ol some r ople. If you must get up when a silver star is tbe companion of the rising sun don't look upon it as a great misfortune. HarJ.-hip is the very thing arousing the niant inside of us. Otherwise what a long nnp that giant might have, and never, indeed be heard from! Irving now felt that he had a mission and when thirty -six, published the first rurabar of the "Sketch-Book," a collection of scotches that became very popular. The great man Irving was named for the Washington who blessed a little boy in a New York shop, would have been interested if be could have told the boy 'a future, and would have smiled if he could have heard an English lady answering her daughter. The two stopped before a bust of Washington in an Italian gallery and the daughter asked who Washington was. "Why, my dear, don't you know! ' was the answer.' "He wrote the 'SketchBook.'" And yet, this same popular book was refused publication, it is said, by two eminent

eced a sufficient mm to make up

booses. The "giant" though had be-n aroused in Irving, and he persevered until successful.

Irving's subsequent works were msjiy and varied, one edition in fifteen volumes having a salejof 250 000. When he was an old man, he wrote a famous life of Washington. And to the little boy on whoso head Washington laid a hand cf blessing grew rp to return the kindness in another and grander way. KNOTTY FR0BLEXS.

The most popular building material now employed in our cities is Scotch sandstone, quarried near Carlisle, Scotland. It has a fine grain des not scale, and is easy to work. Tne anderbilt houses are of Indiana limestone. Brown stone has fallen somewhat into disrepute. Oar climate is very severe cn this material. Dr. A. A. Julien, in a lecture before the New York Academy of Sciences, Monday evening, predicted that a thousand years hence, owing to the lack of weather-resisting qualities in stone, not a single modern building will be in existence. Even the limestone piers of the Brooklyn bridge will probably be affected by mollusks and spodges. The Italian iag-pickers of New York number about five hundred, are possessed of a thorough esprit de corps, and earn from a few cents a day up to $1.50, the latter amount being rarely earned. The average earnings are about 85 cents a day. These Italians live very cheaply, and it is said that excepting those who have just landed, all have bank accounts. It is narrated of the great sculptor Michael Angelo, that when at work he wore over his forehead, fastened on his arti-t's cap, a lighted candle, in order that no shadow of himself might fall upon his work!

The divorce statistics of Maine for the past five years give an unpleasant picture of home life in that State. There have been about twenty-four hundred divorces decreed during the period in question, and thus nearly five thousand persons have been released from the bonds which were assumed with at least nominal solemnity.

While on a hunting excursion in the great coal and wood region of Carbondale, Ta., the writer met William Coil, a lumterman. Accustomed to life and labor in the forests from early man hood, he was a true Knight of the Axe. Many a tree had fallen before his ringing strokes, and fleets cf rafts have borne away to market tbe sawed products. Coil is a character, and if Oscar Wilde Is right in saying that all movements in unhindered labor are graceful, our friend William, stripped for his work, and attacking a tree as Richard I. assaulted the heavy doorg cf Front de Bocaf's Castle, must have presented an adm i rable pic t ure. One day, however but let him tell the story himself as he told It to me ; "I was out In the woods, you know, trying to start a log down a hill. Thinking I could get a better purchase on it from the lower side. I tackled it there with my log-rolling hook and threw my weight on tbe lever. She started, she did, hut as luck would have it, before I could get outof the way she rolled right oer me. If it hadn't been for a I n of smalt limbs and brush lying In the road, which liftel her up, she'd 'a crushed me flat As It was I gat up without a broken bone, but with come mighty bad bruises." "Then you were all right," said his auditor. "Not by a blamed sight, stranger. 1 took cold. rheumatism Bet in, and if I hadn't heard of BENSON'S CAPC1NE POROC3 PLASTER3 and used 'em, it's my opinion I should never have made another chip fly. But the Capcine took hold quick, and I'm 'bout as good as new. But there's one thing you kin calculate on I shall never wrastle with another log unless I have the advantage of the ground; fur, as I told you before, if It hadn't bcea for them brushes I'd been smashed so you could 'a sold me for a door mat.'' The Capcine ia the thing for rheumatism. It doesn't keep you waiting. The word CAPCINE is cut in .the center of the genuine. Price twentyfire cents. Seabury & Johnson, Chemists, New York. MANHOOD.
