TOE SINQI5G BEGGARS.

Wakeman in the Current. A TKUE STOKY Of OUK NEAREST JiEUiüBORS. Locg bsfore the Iszf buds on our a3h trees had opened their eye3 t3 find their smarter neighbors all up an I dressed, two bright-eyed robins, just ra'.urncl from their trip abroad andesgerto settle dawa to housekeeping, hid fixed upon a crotch is the ash. tree in front of my bedroom window aa the meat suitable place lor their tiny hone. They were soon to busily engaged carrying thither the slicks, straws and strin3 usaal to such home -bail dinp, that they could hardly rind time t3 giye us the coveted morning atd evening eoag. One day it rained hard all day long, and xnitsed Jlr. and ilra. Itobia very much. The mite of home appeared to be getting a thorough wetting; once in a while a very wet, meek-lcciing red-breast hopped from twig to twig, and not finding a dry place for the sole of hü foot, flew away atain. Bat next morn ing Low early he b?gaa to sing, and how Joud! 8o loud that ha roused some of the sleepy leal-buds, who palled off their night caps acd peepel cut tj Bee what the matter WM. Matter enough, i?desd! Eight acro3S the street were the Maple children, dancing about and playing hide-and-seek. There, too, were the Elms, swinging in high glee; and yes, if over yonder weren't those stiff, proptr Hcrscchestuuts hanging around and looking on just as usual; and all our brothers and sisters fast asleep yet! Then they listened to Mr. Robin while ha sang about how 'his house was almost ready for Mrs. Robin to come acd live in aad lay the little eggs, but how could shs with nothing to protect her from the wind and ram?" HeaiiDg this they grew ashamed acd hooted to the other little birds: " Wake up! "Wake up! Mrs. Rabin can't move in tul the has a rcof to cover her. Who'll- ba the first to help thiDgle it?" Taja Wind cams np and shook them rcughly ; oil tambltd their fiafiy caps; some stirred a trifle bat were 4-s3 s'eepy." Bye and bje Mamma Ban went aroind and genly kLsed their eyes open, and they were up and dressing la a jiffy. It wafcii't lor g bifjre we had the pleasure of watching the Lrud little wife ail we wished &i fcte EäS ca the nest, carefully tcrced the bine e?ga over and over and waited patiently for the delicacies her lovirg mate brought her; listening meanwhile tj the cheery rotes he chirped to herfrcra afar. Sometime he would stop awhile to tell her the news and gocsiu of Ute day; how he h&d tad a wer Serial Cgt with a great earthworm which ha wo ad have brought home to her, "bat that it was sj very heavy; aad besides, it was tough." That Mrs. Spaxtow tad told him that "hi coat wai the glossiest acd his vest the rtd Us: that there was a flying this year." He taid her of a big cherrytree and strawberry pitch he had found, that no one else knew anything of, which wo aid be ready just in tinia for the babies: and wound np by declaring that her eggs were th9 prettiest he ever saw, aai that altogether she was the Bietest wife a robin ever had. Then she would smoota her feathers atd settle down as cyn tented aad happy as Other wives are wont to do. The tiny leaves stretched a little longer each day until the roof over the nest was complete, taklc-s a good care that neither the sunbeams nor the rain drops should touch the little brown head. Early one mcrniDg Belle-baby had climbed out of her crib to say "Doo mornin " to Mrs. Hobln, and to ask her rather impatiently to "Det eff a minit, lem me see oa' 'itty eggs;" when a moment later she exclaimed in an excited whisper "Mamma! birdies done away; p'easehor rxe up high, lern me s:e." I lift her "up higU" bat no eggs do we see; instead cornet hi eg moving; aad presently op comes a trembling heal. 'Why! there's a biby bird; run call the children." By the time m7 own half -dressed brood were at the wiudow the little mother was standing on the eda of the nest patting bits U breakfast into tbree such big yellow sr ouths that the little f ilk could hardly balieve that these were the nestling we had waited 83 loa? to s?e. "Looks as if she were dropping a penny into my rew ten-cent purse." "I believe you, Tom. Did you ever see such horrid little things! I could make a better-looking birdie than that out of old rag; it would hold up its head, too. They haven't any feathers on. I should think they'd be cold. W tvre are their eyes? How can they ever grow to be like real robins?" said indignant Heleu. "Just (8 easy, a&d it won't take th6ta long either; in a week thtir eyes will be open ana thtir feathers well stirtfld;" which incredible statement had to be believed, as Fred, Ifieg the eldest, wai authority especially on robins. The little ones thrived and grew daily Into cur hearts, until we were truly 'members of one family." "To day they held their heads up without vfobblirg " "They tat up end looked around, thlsa!tenicrn; tüick tiej 'most know us by thu tirce." "Tbelr feathers are cat, and they really begin to loci like birdies" were report bxcucht to me from titna to time. ALd well they mihtgrow with such de voted tarer.ti, tbe iivrlonzdiy on the wiag tring'rg the most delicious fat worms thit eyer bnrgry ce-igiinir. could delight in. Mr. DaLdy Room,' a neighbor, came over ore aitTi oon to se tte babies, juat as both vapa end Kauaa Rbin returntd with sac a tenpt'rg morsels wridrgiing ia their bllia, that they fa'.riy re da his mouth water, th rtcieso that he hd been hunting for the like a week. Ho he Eong Tor life of me 1 no no? ee . vt'here yoa find 'em! Te;lce. Tell me." To which the other replied: "We leave the sest e'ore tte rest Toil behind 'em! TeLe! lene!"" At last one night Fred's keea eyes having EOtlced signs of uneasiness in the nest, h gravely announced taat the brdlings wera about ready to fly. Oo one had seen the old bird since noon, whica was partially accounted for by ths fact that the children had had company, consequently the nest had revived less attention than usual. Yet, Fred was not quite comfortable about It, Five o'clock next morning he was aroused with unusual cries, hungry, distressed cries from the little home under the leaves. Hal the parent birds left them ti have hunger teach them to fly? Oh! no, he could net think it; and yet, where were they ?" l'ccr little birdies, how foriaien they looked. One, bolder than the othtri, re3o mteJy stood up, ahock out hia wings and clirnted onto tne ed?e of ths nejt. A quick call frcm Fred brought the whole family to the window la a twinkling. There the dear little bändle of feathers stood, bobbing this way and that, not daring to let go hl3 spasmodic ?rlp on whatever was next; all the while cryizg "Breakfast! Breakfast! Mam

mal Ertilfast!" Fir ally he spread h!s wixs and laying, 'Goin' to find my mmai it a," flew to a biaccU a foot or S3 away, where he was so tired be had to rest awhile. "Here comes another." says Tom. Elowly the little tumbler edes hlms?ll ua onto the piazza as Helen calls the rim of tte little home peepisg to himself, I gain' find mamas too." While he is pitching about, trying to find out what his wiegs were made for, ths first one ch!ros: "I go see mamma now; this is the way she used to do." Straightening out his litite head and feet he makes his wings go fa-1 bat "Of.dear! Oh dear! What hard work it fs. 1-J so hui gy, so heavy, and mamma is so far an at. Ivase come, mamma, and help jour litt;e baby." Bat tbe absent rro'hr does not hear ths piaiijtive wail, and the little one faila, fAlia, falls clear to the ground. Fied is down there a moment after, picks him up all trembliDg with fright, aod places him as bigh up ia the tree as he can reach, but not befots number two has made a. eac-cef-fnl flight into the rext tree. The third is cow clatchlag at anythlnz his big awkward feet caa hold onto, and is teettriuK backward f.d. forward, now the yl)oTf bill and cow the fanny little squtre tail pcintirg upward. He can't endure to be left alone, but is so afraid cf seeing soma of those dreaf al creatores that his mamma had told would eat up birdies, that be shuts his eyes and Hies e gain st a branch with euch force as to tarn him ovtr and over till he too reaches the sidewalk. Fxcd attends to hira; and then we go to breakfast, after which we rlad them boih on tbe grass. How pretty and soft they were in their little brown jackets and speckled b:cast?; of course not a bit afraid of u?, we loved ttem so. Again and again we put them on the limbs of theTtree, where at last, worn cut with fatigue and hunger, they sit still and cry &o pitifnlly. About 10 o'clock a joyfal chirp announces to our quick ears that food is near. Only Helen, Belle, baby and I are there to see the two starving birdies within a few feet of each other, tbeir wings quivering with delight at tight of mamma and samething to cat. Eut what ails her! See how she flatters, hovers over them, even croons to them, tries to alight near them, slips off, flies around, and comes back to do it all over again; her litL'e chicks frantically screaming with impatience. What does it mean? Finally she dees tet her foot on a limb a little way above where oe is perched, and sliding down to 1 gives it the coveted mouthfnl poising hertelf on fcerwircs rather than on her feet, ar (i iCciir s to sick and troubled. Tatn we discover that one le is dan.ias swinging round and round hanging by the skin only! 'Oh! mac-ina!"

What I mean by that is, he was drunk, and awfully drunk, too. Two of his companions were trying to get him along, when they met a third party, who invited them in to drink. The fat fellow wasn't able to stand alone, they dido't want to let him fall, and he wouldn't sit down on the curbstone until they came out, so they deliberately pulled him over to a lamp post and buttcned him around it by his duster, while they went in the saloon. It was the funniest sight I ever saw. It was moonlight. The fat fellow had lost his cap, and the menn glistened and shone on his bald heal like dew on a flower. When bis friends came out of the tavern they found him all right, as erect as the lamp post to which thsy had fixed him."

Downright Cruelty To permit yourself and family to "Buffer !" With tickness whea It caa be prevented and cured so easily With Hop Bitters!!! Having experienced a great deal of "Trouble!" from indigestion, so much so that I came near losing my Li:e! My trouble always came after eating any food However light And digestible, For two or three hours at a time I had to go through the most Excruciating paics, "And the only wsy I ever got" Relief!"

If our religion is not trne, we are bsund to change it; if it is true we are bound to propagate it Archbishoo Wbately. Dr. Newman's successor in the Mailsoa Avenue Congregational Church, New York city, Rev. W. F. Price is only twenty-eiht although he weighs 200 podnds. The Rev. 8am. Jones, the Georgia revivalist, recently told his audience at Nashville that nearly every form of vice ia that city is chaperoned by members of the church. Victor Hugo's bsst works were written "while he was a Catholic," according to the Catholic Standard, which discovers that "after he became an apostle his mind evidently lost much of its vigor and power." Wten the King James version was issaed not more than 6,000,000 people spoke tae English larguage, but it is now the mother tongue cf at least 100.C03.COO, and 20.0C0.000 Revised Bibles will be needed to supply oae to each family. At the meeting of the Fresbytry of the Indian Territory, in Atoka, Choctaw Nation, the returns from the various nailns were full cf encouragement, especially that frcm the Cherokees. The gain during the year in churches is thirteen, or 118 per cent. The Christian Herald, an English paper, has studied prophesy, and now avers that Daniel foresaw all the troubles with Ireland acd this baa business of the dynamiters; it prophesies Britain's loss of Ireland within ten years. All this is gathered from Daniel xii., 1. Christ is a tried f aundation. He has been tried by Gcd and by devils; by many who are row in glory, and by others who are on tbe way there, and Hebas never failed. All the stones found on Him became living stones, and they are all cemented together by the blood of Jesns. Guthrie. , In the death of Key. Gerald Moultrie, th English Church loses one of its religUns po" ess, who, though not surpassing Keble or Newman, belonged to (he came school, and did his work in much the tame way.

EUht persons, including Dr. A. J.Gordon, the Rev. M. R. Deming, General Secretary of the Boston Y. M. C.

The cates were all app-a'ed, and will go as speedily as possible to the Supreme Couit for leal decision. The presch ins was in violation of a city ordinance, the validity cf which Is in question. CCKI0C3, USEFUL AMD BCLESHlrlCi A very strong solution of salt, applied boiling hot, will kill insects and preserve wcod. A remarkable property of the ice-plant is its absorption of salt, a fluid exaded bv its leaves having been found to contain 33 per cent of eea-ealt. A table giving the price of gas in ninety, five of the principal cities ot the United States shows a total range in pries of from ninety cents to $1 per 1,000 feet. The lowest price is in Wilkesbarre, Pa , and Wheeling, W. Va., near the heart of the coal regions, and the highest rules in Galveston aad &an Antonio, Texas, new places and far removed from coal. A brick being about as porous as a lump of 6Ugar and having six 6idea, it needs careful filling for water-tight work in cesspools, etc, and a thin grout or porridge of cement is commonly used. Heating the brick and soaking before-baad in thick coal tar has been recommended. A man may lay a common wall all his life without learning how to make brick water-tight. An experiment has been made at South Kensington to determine the degree ot heat which various fishes may endure. The wa'er containing them was slowly warmed, whea individuals of the several species were prostrated at the following temperature: Perch, 82 degrets; reach, $2a degrees; salmon, 83 degrees; minow, 85 degrees; gudgeon, S5 degrees; dace, 86 degrees; common tench, 88 dfgrees; golden tench, 8S degrees; carp, 91 degrees. Brandy has been found to have a gcod effect in restoring exhausted fi3h to animation. it doei not appear that the moderate use of Persian opium in Persia is deleterious. Opium eaters there are it is true, bat they are few. Opium smoking is almost unknown ; and opium when smoked is, as a rule, smoked by a native doctor's prescription. Tbe opium pill box, a tiny box ot silver, is as common in Persia as the snuff box was once with ua. Most men of forty among the upper ax d middle classes use it. They take from a grain to a grain and a half, divided into two pills, one in the afternoon and ooe at night. Travellers, too, almost invariably take it. Rheen, of the Smithsonian Institute, his contradicted much of the popular belief caacerningenakee. The venomous hoop snake which takes its tail in its mouth aad rails along like a hoop, and the blow snake, the breath of which Is deadly, exist only in the imsgication. The idea that serpents sting with the tongue is erroneous. An i:aprettion prevails that the number of poisonous snakes is great, bat in North America there are but three species the rattlesnake, the copperhead or moccasin, and the conti. Snakes do not jump; they reach suddenly forward, perhaps half the length of their bodies. The cure of one actrssi smitten mm is reported. He had for many years bsen an inmate of an insane asylum. He became a furious lover of Ristori as Mary Stuart, and immediately went daft. Of late years the one mania of love for the mimic Qaeen wa all that ailed him. Seeing that R-jtori, on ber recent farewell tour, had become a middle sged woman, with none ot her parson il beauty left, the physician decided to take his patient to see her. The result was astoaish ingly succeistul. There was enough of the former Ristorl to convince tbe man that she was the same Individual ; bat he was so thoroughly disenchanted that recovery was al most instantaneous. In a recent address before the American Medical Association, Dr. Didama, while giving due credit to investigators, believed that bacteriology had furnished little help to the art of healing. The treatment for consumption has not been even modified by the discovery of the bacillus, and the former still carries off one-sixth of the human race. No new remedy had beea suggested by the finding of the cholera microbe. The acid treatment ot cholera was employed with some success years before It was known that tne cause of the disease was shaped like a comma. Ague yielded to Jesuits' bark agas before the bacillus malariae was dreamed of, and the knowledge that germs originate the complaint has not added one jot to oar ability to manage it. A London c'ocior has published iome carious comparative statistics on the longevity of public and professional men. He found that the average age at death of the twenty-five most prominent American statesmen daring the hundred years was sixtynine. The average cf an equal number of English statesmen was seventy years practically the came. He thought the Utter did

more work at an advanced age. The differ - tree in favor of English, as compared with American, political life was broaght out by comparing the ages at death of the members cf tbe British Parliament with those ot the United States Congress who died between I860 and 1884. Of oar Senators, fifty-nine gave an average of sixty-one years; 146 Representatives avenged fifty-five years, and the average for both was fifty -eight. The 121 members of Parliament averaged sixty-eight years at death.

A clergyman has disc3verel that all the salarif s of rel gious teachers in this country added together do not amount to 33 much as the sum which the country ependi annually in keeping degs.

In the largest library in the world, in Paris, there is a Chinese chart of the heavens, made about CCO years before Christ. In this chart 1,460 stars are found to be correctly inserted, as corroborated by the scientists of the present day. Mr. Shropshire, editor of the Costa Rica (N. Y.) News, is the youngest grandfather in that section of the country. He Is thirty-five years old. His wife is also quite youthful, being only twenty e'ght. Her grandchild is nearly a year old. The number of envelopes manufactured yearly in Great Britain i estimated at 703,OCO.OOO. while in the United States they amount to 2500,000 000. If hard labor were employed to do the work now done by machines simply in ma∈ envelopes, taking no sccount of the printing done by some of them, the rervices would, it is estimated, be required of 275.000 work-people. A stroll through an emigrant train at Pittsburg revealed Russians eating blackbread sandwiches, evidently brought from the other side cf the Atlantic; Germans regaling themselves with wheaten bread, rancid butter and smoked sausege, and Hungarians, shunned by their fellow-travelers, devouring musty breed and limburger cheese of great age and proportionate strength. According to a French medical journal the mortality of children "brought upon the battie" is frightfully large.
