The Youth's Companion relates the following etory of a pet seal, captured and tamed bv a little Danish bor on the coast of Greenland: For a time Peter watched the boats; but

finding this dull amusement, he bj and-bv set off for a small hunt on his own account, and folio cd along the shore till he came near the foot of Great Kunak. Here a subdued, hoarse barking came to his ears; and cautiously stealing around a point of rocks, there before hia eyes, lay two large spotted sealä with their pups, sunning on the ict-f ot. At eight of Peter, the old ones raised their head, stared at him for a second, then betook themeelvea to the water in great haste. Peter had no weapon except a stick. "With this however, he valiantly tried to get ahead of the shuffling pair. They floun dered en despite his interference, and plunged headlong into the sea. Bat tha p y;r Piter determined to hare "4heuA,- id-Ürned to grab them, as they came flipping and tumbling after the old ones. It wa very slippery on the ice, and clumsy as the little seals seemed, thev, all but one, eontnved to elude Peter. Upon that one Peter pounced bodily, and held it in spite of its struggles. It waa a very baby of a seal, not weighing more than tea pounds, with the roundest of liittle noses, and a rery sleek, soft head. Its suffused, yet intelligent, little eyes looked up timidly into Peter's face, und its tiny imploring cry so touched hU heart that, for a moment, he was moved to let it go. Bit then ho thought what a nie pet it would make, and hurried en. Getting home with his prize, he procured a tit of cord and tied it, by one of its flipEsr, in & corner of the itora room, where r a f w days he looktd after it almost constantly and taught it to eat porridge. Afterward, ha dug a hole for it in a sno bank and gave it a bed of straw to nestle in; and when the weather bad grown a little wirmor, he usedto leal it down to tno shore every day for a bath in the sea. For a tirns he took good care to never let go the npe. Bat soon the little seal grew bo attached to his young master that this precaution became quite unnecessary. It followed the boy everywhere, like a do, shuffling and scrambling alone, and it was HuLabla t- see its clumsy antics and gambols about Peter's legs. The lai earned it Eruck a pet name in Danish. During the short summor, Peter was acCüitomed to go out ihninpicj; ia his father's boat every morning. When ready fcr a Start he would whistle for Bruck, and the young seal would clirr b into the boat of its own accord. But as soon as they had got out whre the purplish hue of the water indicated the pretence of the shoals of tinted-

backed shrimps, overboard would go Brack, and, divin ; right acl left, soon scoop up a trek'a-t fjr himself. Indeed, be very soon came to catch his Own living, aai grew so strong and large that when less than a year old, he weighed loO poun ds. The J-ction which this creature evinced for hU master seems quite wonderful. It becams uneasy if the lad was out of its tight, even for five minutes, and would go seareiiic and whining for him in all their Uual hauet. When shut out cf the home by chance, it beat and scratched at the door far more persistently than a dog. Its favorite place to sleep w the foot of Peter's bed. If not forcibly put cut, it would be sure to jet there; and ail through the first winter its body made a most comfortable "foot-brick" for lV:Ur toe?. Bat ater Bruck had grown so large, llotaer Maxfeit objected to his presence in -theboue. So Peter built a little shed for his pet, jaet outside. Bat for throe or four nights, Bruck whined and scratched at the . - door by the hour; and it was long before he woald eo to his shed of his own accord. Th is passed two or three years, and Bruck had grawn to be fully five feet in length. Peter wis now sixteen years of age, and had bfgun to work in the mine with hia father. Yet the same action continued bUwecn tho two. Bruck often etme waddling to the .quarries, and was as much a pet with all the werk men as ever a dog coutd h7e baen. lie had a paeul'ar trait of climbing op and looking p4rpl in the face with hi calm, so't eye? It was a saying amotg the rr.irrs that Bruck "knw as much a3 a mAnJy he coa lln't ta!k.

creatures do certainly possess strange, true Instinct, and feel premonitions unknown to

xnsu. One season the captain of one of the supSly ships, while in port, taw Bruck, and earing of his wonderful traits, tried to bay him of Peter. But Peter stoutly retusei vo sell his play-feliow. The captain, however, applied to Peters lather, ana by a uoerai offer (15 rix dollars), tempted the poor miner to bargain Bruck away. . And. they 4id, b&tweoa them, a cruel thing they contrived to get Brack on board the ship the day she sailed, while Peter was at the mine, and without his knowledge. The Hvalflsken got under weigh, and was well at sea before they told Peter. Stout boy though he now was, he cried like a baoy. It waa the nret great gnei 01 ma life. Lest Bruck should escape, the captain had a line bent to one of his tore-arms, and the poor creature was hitched to a riny in the bulwarks. At first, Bruck st-uggled pluckily, and seeming to realize that he had been foully kidnapped, he roared and dis played an unnatural fierceness. Finding this of no avail, he began to "cry," and for hours lay panting and whining piteously. The next morning, and the two following mornings, the sailors, by the captain's order, tOäßed Bruck overboard for a swim in the sea, with the line still on him, to haul him on board with, thinking thus to cheer him up and make him less sulky. But still the homesick creature would not touch fish, nor food of any kind. Tho fourth morning out, after they had tossed the seal overboard as usual, the line was seen suddenly to tighten, and they hauled in only the broken end of it. Bab bles rose, and there seemed to be a commo ticn of the water deep down. Some big näh, shark or other marine monster, had laid hold of Bruck and broken the line. They saw nothing farther of the seal on board tho Hvalflaken. The vessel was then probably four hundred milee out of Iviktut; and now comes the really wonderful part of the story. The brie sailed Wednesday. The fol lowing Tuesday night, Peter, who had ceasel to mourn the loss ot his pet, heard a feeble scratching at the door, followed soon by a plaintive but familiar whine. Jump ing irom his bed he ran and opened the door, and lot there was Bruck, who whined and rubbed his wet head caressingly against the bare feet of his master. Full of pity and of fenr at Bruck's unusual lack ot strength, Peter lighted a candle and bei an anxiously to examine him. In the pjor animal's body there were full half-a-dozan great, gaping, white wounds, bleached and fringed by his long journey in the sea. S jme ferocious "tyrant of the flood" had lacerated him most mercilessly probably at the time the line was broken. Yet despite his wounds the affectionate crea'ure had made his way back, all those hundiads of miles, guided tnrough the pathless waters only by that marvelous gift of instinctive knowledge with wnich nature has endowed the e, her untaught tribes. Poor faithful Bruck! Peter s care and all his rude eifjrts to cure his recovered pet proved u-e'.ess. The animal's vitality seemed quite spent, and it died a few days after its return. Chips. A wbisperei word may touch the heart. And call it back to life; A look of love bi 1 sin depart. And still uaholy strife. 'I have a theory about the dead lan guages, remarked the last boy in the form. aI think they wcrb killed by beirg studied too hard." B"js are the greatest philosophers in the world. They don t argue one wouldn t stand an arguing boy they act. Action to them is second nature, and they love it. They positively forget nature's wants over it. Tiere are really few lazy boys in the world, and if ever a sculptor wished to re present the God of activity, he should be given very youthful, as a true "street boy." Tou do not wear the sane kind of cellars and neckties and coats that your grand fathers wore whea they were beys, but the same kind of hard work and honesty and truthrulness are necessary for you if you would succeed as most of them succeeded. You can go from Bo6ton to New York a good deal quicker than they could, but you can't reach the goal of true success without traveling the same hard, low old road of uprightness and Industry. Fire burns and ice freezes as in their day, and lack of training, and business gambling, and ram and bad couo&ny are iure to lead to ruin. oua failure as ever Wide Awake. Sidney Saaith, Theodore Hook, and other noted men, gained fame because of the readiness witn which they made Jokes and off-hand rhymes. Their wit was quick, "like AtalanU 's hook" But there is a little lad in a certain Western t jwn whose wit is just as quick. Among tbe visitors at the house of this lai father waa a gentleman who recently was quite ill, thereby losing ra ich flesh. The other evening his friend called, and as loon as he entered tae Bitting room, the littlo lai exclaimed: Tapa! mamma! Here om es Mr. Finnegan; lie ued to be fat. And now ba'a thin again." The P.ev. A. C. Ilurd, of Taftville, CL, has a pet canary which has bm trained to suppiy itself with water. lu the corner of the cage is a well formed of glass, in which a rninuture bucket about the size of a lady's thimble is kept. A wooden platform covers a part of the water cylinder, and a thread from the bucket runs over a tiny pulley and is permanently attached to the perch close by. "When tbe bird feels thirsty he proceeds to the well cure, seizes the thread in his bill, and carries the slack to his foot on the perch, which he tue to hold the line while he gets a new hold, repeating tbe operation until the buckot is pulled up, when he drinks. The operation is perforxei gracefully, and tbe bird, after slaking bis thirst, indulges in a jubilant song.

AQt A Queer Sort of a Jake to Tlay. fWashingtoa Corretoondecce of the Boston Traveller. The cash office of the Treasurer's Depart ment in the Treasury Building often contains many hundreds of thousands of dollars, and great care is taken against the possible depredations ef thiev s. The room is very nign stuaaea asa contains a gaiiery which can be reached by the general public from the floor above. The interest clerk ia an auburn-haired individual of the most nervous temperament, and notwithstanding the fact that he has been in his position for many year.i he has never lost sight of the tremendous responsibility of handling the Taet sums of money which daily pass into hia possession. Iiis nervousnecs has grown chronic, and he is made the butt of many a quiet practio&l joke. The groaton of these waa plyed Swme time ago by one of his intimate personal friends who obtained per. musion from Treasurer Gilullan to try hir little scheme. Tbe gentleman armed himself with about twenty-five feet of twine, and attached to one end of it a machine composed of a steel prod poialed as floe as a needle, and a solid piece of rubber as a ballast. He cUtioned himself in the gaiiery directly over the interest clerk's desk, where there were heaps of money all nicely done up in packages. Then he slowly let down his string until It was directly over a largo pacxage, and releasing his hold on the twine, the steel prod impaled a bundle of notes, which he quickly drew to the gallery, and having secured them, rushed to tho Treasurer's office with his prize, which proved to be $6,000 in legal tender. Meanwhile tte interest clerk saw his money g'irg skyward and gave the general alarm, but not in time, ho wever, to detect the culprit. The cleik was nearly crazel when he received a note signed "James Gilfillan," arkioe him to come at once to the Treasurer's office. He went as fast as his leg could carry him, and imagine his j y whoa the Treasurer handed him the missing $5 OOO, advising him to be more careful that his money did not "take unto itself wings and fly away" in the future. This practical joke has taught the department a good lesson, to-wit: that it was possible for a clever thief to abstract money in the method mentioned, and so double precautions have been taken, and under the existing state of affairs such an event is not at all likely to happen again.

A MOIHER'i GKATITCDK.

Why Sae Gave a Chicago Lawyer a Diamond Bing. lOmaha (Neb.) Bee.1 It was the last night of the Madiera engagement. The Boyd Opera-hc use was filling rapidly. A trio of young gentlemen had just ascended to the landing of the marble stairway and were approaching the flight which leads to the entrance, whena young lady, richly attired and accompa nied by a matronly lady, exclaimed, ''There a. ? . a awv . no is, mammai xne tnree young gentlemen turned. As they did so-the elderiv lady approached aud, addrefsing one of tnem, requested him to step with her to the reception room. vTitbm the room the matronly lady said: 'Mr. Nolan, I am at lighted to meet yoa, and den re to cancel a debt of gratitude for which I have long been in arrears. My daughter tells me it was you who saved her life some years since in the mountains of Colorado. She thought she recognized you at the hotel to day, and now the u positive you are the man, indeed. Il you will kindly accept this little souvenir of my appreciation of your exceeding heroism you will place me under even more heartfelt eratitude." Mr. II. W. Nolan is not a bashful man. Because ne is a lawyer and a Chlcagoan. Nor is hia modesty of that Omaha nature which would prevent him from wearing the beautiful solitaire diamond which he feel ingly accepted on thij occasion. If tee gentleman at all faltered it was because of tho languishing effect tho young lady's grateful yet modest glances had upon him, p.esumably becauso of the proprietary right exercised over him by a gentleman present who was then introduced as the jouDg lady's husband. The scene was a short one, and upon its conclusion all adjourned to their respective seats m the auditorium. Seven years ago Mr. Nolan was prospect ing in the mountains. He was climbing a circuitous road to a mining camp when a runaway horse, to which clung a frightened and powerless lady rider, and which had run away from a party of equestriennes and their escorts, came galloping rapidly toward him. At a bend in the road both rider and animal would have been dashed to destruction, a thousand feet below. At th risk of his life, he reached the bri die of tne horse as it was flying past him, and. in a short time, brought the animal to his knees. Both horse and rider were caved. Ths party and escorts soon came up and bore their member home. Mr. Nolan had not time nor inclination to accompany thorn iknd pose as rescuer, and consequently continued bis j ourney, lie soon staked beyond the divide, and never heard whom he had rescued. - After years of absence and separation, all the parties met here as transients as above related.

' It cannot be gainsaid that he waa vain of his intellectual gifts. A Kentuckiaa gave me thi3 evidence ofthat fact: Marshall, after making a great speech at Frankfort in a law case, took a walk with a friend and asked him what he thought of it. Hia friend, knowing that he was fishing for a compliment, replied with a smile: "Well, I think It was pretty passable." "Now jouknow better," said Marshall. "You know that it was one of the beet speeches you ever heard in your life. I wrote that speech thirteen years ago, and this ii the firft time that I e?er had aa epportunity of delivering it." Mr. O.

Brouf ht Into Competition With the World, the Heat Carries Off the Honors. At the great Centennial Exhibition of 1S76, the leading prod acts cf all the branches of the World's industry were assembled at Philadelphia. To carry offaprizsinthe face cf that tremendous competition wa a task of no ordinary difficulty. Inventions and preparations frthe alleviation 01 pal a and the cure of oisea&e were present in tbe greatest possible variety, representing thesxiil and the profonndeet study of the age, and it may be of vltsl Importance to you, person ally, to knew that tbe highest and only medal given to Rubber Porous riasters, was awarded to the manufacturers of BEN'SOS'3 CAPCINEPOEOÜS PLASTER, by the following Jury: Dr. Vm. Roih,9urgeon General, Prussian Army. J. H. Thompson. A. 31., M. D., Wa&hlngton.D.C. C. B. White, M. D., New Orleans. Ernest Fleisch, M. D., Austria. The decision was afterwards confirmed by tbe Medical Jury at the Paris Exposition. Knowing the value of such high and unbiased testimony, the medical profession, both in the United States and In Europe, quickly threw aside tbe old, slowacting plasters they had been using, and adopted Benson's In telr regular practice. That physicians and surgeons of the broadest reputations did this, distinct' proves the intrinsic merit of the articleIt Is no more than just to add that the average phytlcianof to-day Is not dominated by the pre judices which retarded the progress and modified the successes of his predecessors of not more than twenty-five years ago. He accepts hints from all quarters and endorses and adopts demonstrated heallo? apents wnerever he finds them. The rieht of Benson's Oapcine Porous Plaster to stand at the head of all external applications whatsoever for the mitigation or cure of disease, Is no longer quettioned. Let the purchaser, however, be on his guard seainst imitations. The genuine has tbe word CAFCISE cut in the middle. Seabury & Johnson, Chemists. ew iorK. FOR LEASE.
