One of the first; as well as one of the best, organs I saw in_Europe was the one in the parochial kirche in Berlin, The organ was built by Buchholz, one of the best and most eminent of the European builders. Although, strictly speaking, it is not one of the great organs of the world, it is very large, and the best I have ever seen for the interpretation of true organ music. Itis of %ren.t power,” clearness and brilliancy, and, it may be said, that nearly every register in it is a master-work in itself, The organ in the beautiful First Church in' Boston (built in Germany, by Walcker, the builder of t\l'g;;%-reat organ in Music Hall) muchresembles it in all its main qualities, although it is not over two-thirds-aslarge. At the old cathedral at Merseberg stands one of the largest and most beautiful organs ever made. It has the greatest number of pipes in its front that I have ever seen in an organ facade. ' Thre player sits faéiﬂig the instrument, and directly back of him (between him and the,congregation) is another smaller organ, called the positif—a sort of solo organ, complete in itseM, with its own case or house, standing twenty or more feet in front of the great| organ proper. The effect, both to eye and car, is very charming. Engel is the organist, and the great: Liszt has several times been here to /bring out ‘ some pieces for the organ, harp, and quartette of brass instruments—a very wotrderful and beautiful combination. In the Thomas kirche, where Hauptman was then cantor, or music director, was the organ that old Sebastian Bach used to play. Although it had heen renovated ({uring Mcm?c]ssohn’s time, it was substantially the same instrumeng. None of the modern registers wére to be found in it, although it had drums and bells. The toueh was the hardest I ever played, and the tone so solid as to sonnd almogt cumbrous; further than this; it did not seem a remakable instrument. And now for one of the so-called wonders of the world, the famous organ in ‘ Freiburg, Switzerland: = So much has been written about this org:in that I was ‘ curious to examine all lT)cv(.-laims that had been made for it. Everybody had been told so many times that it was the largest organ in the world, the best, and the most wonderful, that I was prepared for a sur{)rise. And I was surprised. It is not only not the largest in the world, . but it is of not more than medium size as compared with the acknowledged %rreat organs in Europe. And, aside rom its having pretty good diapasons, and powerful, though somewhat disagreeable reeds, it is not a remarkable organ at all.- It has not even a full set of pedals. - : |

Its much-talked-of Vox Humana owes its effect wholly to its being placed outside the auditorium at such a distance that the 'illgsion only remains. And here, again, for the next most, famous organ in the world, thaf organ in the Haarlem Cathedral, Holland. This is certainly much larger and<better than ‘the Frel}t’)urg instrument outwardly. It is not unlike our Music Hall organ in size and appearance. Musically, it is more like it than any organ I have ever heard./\"%his organ is about_one hundred and fifty years old, and is noted for having all its pipes (except twenty recently added) made of metal.

The most curious organ in Europe is the great one at \’s eingarten, near Switzerland. It was built by a monk, the celebrated Abbe Volger, who was an organ-player as well as a priest. It has 6,666.pipe5, he having been paid a florin for each pipe, large and small. He was evidentll;r not unmindful of earthly things, for the sly old dominie filled the organ full of very small pipes called mixtures.. Ordinary organs have from five to eight ranks, or rows, of mixtures, this one has over a hundred. One would naturally suppose that the tone of the organ would consequently be very shrill. * This was not the case, however. The priest was musical enough to have them all voiced so deli-. cately that the effect, though it cannot be called legitimate, was altogether charming. [t was asif the air was full of snowflakes of sound. Besides this feature, the organ has drums, bells, great.and small, angels with drums, and all sorts or queer things; and its case is ornamented and {colored in the- most brilliant manner possible. Largc as it looks, it is useless for real organ music, as it has only an octave and a half of the clumsiest kind of pedals. - The finest ehurch organ (in the full sense of the word) that the world containg is in Westminster ' Abbey. By finest, I mean the most devotional in its guality and-effect. How much may be ue to,the accoustic qualities of the marvelous edifice in which it stands I cannot say, I have not heard its like, nor do I expett to this side of the heavenly gates. Atthétime I am. speaking of, the most celebrated organ in England -was the Oﬁan in St. George's Hall, Liverpool. is was built by Willis, the most eminent of English organ makers. It had four manuals and a great number of pneumatic combination levers, small knobs, by which the organist could make a number of combinations without taking his hands from the keyboard or in any way interrupting his playing. Willgxn-Best was years ago. appointed the organist of the hall, and twice a week gives regular organ concerts at sixpence admission. : |

The largest organ in the world is in the RoyaF Albert Hall, London. -The magnificent hall in which it is placed is ov:ﬁ)nrm or egg-shaped, the oigan standing somewhat above the level of thelow--er fldor. Above are three galleries, and jover these a qrand tier of boxes extend: inE completely around the auditoriam. The hall is capable of holding from 12,000 to 14,000 auditors (if T remember rightly), and it will be seen that only an orFan of great power could adequately fill so large a space. The organ case is massive and stron;i, although not of -ornate design, and the front pipes are nearly ‘of J)ure tin (ten per cent. alloy only), and their bright polish gives the or&n a very beautiful and imposing ‘:s‘ pearance. r&;ﬂam an has four manuals 4nd a complete pegal“e. . In addition, it hasthirty-two combination knobs (ei%ht over each key-board), and a large humber of combination pedals, by means of which an almost endless variety of effects can be instantaneously obtained. All the bellows and blowing ugsa.ratus are ;?laced in-a large room :y t mselvles, dth 8 l'(zlomt being alJays perfect and of an even a;mper:g:e. 'l’heyeﬁ'z:t of some of the solo registers is viery beautiful, and the ge the full organ grand and mathe extreme, when musie which t_d:xtod to so large an instrument is la; The total number of Flm Lno{nnm of pégu) is one hundred d eleven, and whole number of duwmomhuugrod,; ' usilntw ty-five.. ,(m%) just one

Te A T R T T WRO «can be called suceessful in the full sense of the word.- When the full power is used, onlgr music of ‘a very slow and massive character ecan be played, without more or less confusion a 3 the result. An organ of sixty, 6r, at most, seventy registers, can furnish all the variety that can possibly be needed, and, if more powrr is desired, the pressure can easily "o increased to any desired degree. Sixty registers (about, 4,> 000 pipes) ¢an be made to speak togethér. A greater number’ than this never did, and never will, speak with precision or c¢learness. e Of all the great organs in our larnd, the great organ in the Boston Music Hall is the most famous. It is about two-thirds the size of the Albert Hall® instrument, and is justly celebrated as one of the most beautiful of the great organs in the world. /By this I mean thati its softer combinations are all of a most beautiful and lovely character and their tone of great purity and beauty. In the full organ isithe same old story of confusion of tone gand slowness of speech which is found in every one of the great organs. This organ has four manuals, thirteen combination pedals (all double-acting) and a pedal which has not one, but three thirty-two foot registers. It was made by Waleker, of Ludwigshurg, Germany, and was seven years in “course of construetion. I

The house or cade is certainly not equaled in beauty by any of the other famous great organs. The size is about forty-five fect wide, forty feet deep and sixty-three feet high, and the number of pipes is 5.353. . The large, Fure tin types in the front weigh nearly a thousand pounds each, and a full-sized man might easily erawl through them. The grand crescendo pedal brings on, as slowly or rapidly as may be desired, all'of the registers, one by one, up to the full power of the organ, andthen withdraws them in a similar manmer. There isalso a pedal which instantly gives or takes away the entire power of the instrument, It is blown by a steam-engine located in the cellar, many feet below the organ, If this noble organ were only played regularly by a master organist it would s&m win, and hold, the foremost rank among the musical wonders of the world.— Eugene Thayer, in Youlh's Companion.

e el e The Priuter.

. The printer, children,- is as patron of the art preservative of all arts, but he frequently has the art of getting a poor writer into a pickle. o

The printer sets while standing and stands while setting. ‘ The printer is not usually a wealthy person, but generally has a quoin or two about him. | ¢ :

He sometimes does very poor work but all his work, good or bad,, is justifi able. : : ;

The printer does not often earry a cane, but you will almost always: find him with a stick in his hand. Sometimes he is'a stick himself.

The printerisa materialist. All his thoughts are upon matter. - Most men like to have things come out square at the end of each day, but’the printer hates to be obliged to bring his work out even. This sounds odd, but. it is oven so. | : . !

. Though correcting his errors ‘every day, the printer may all the time be Srowing worse. ]

o ’J.‘hmrg_);h a perfect’Jack Spratt in his fondness for lean meat. the printer never objects_ to fat. : i Gl .

He is often a profound reader, but alwavs dislikes solid matter.

~The printer is like the actor in the fact that.-he hates to see a heggarly array of empty boxes. - The printer may not be averse to poetry, but he detests pi. The good printer is known by his form. Se careful is'he of his* form that he always locks it up. : Though notalways correct, the printer's work is invariably done by rule.

The printer is a very inoffensive individual, but is quite clever with the shooting stick. i - The printer is not satisfied with thinking that his work is complete. He always wants a proof of it. - The printeris your true man of letters, though he may not be a literary man. The printer is an upright man, but he is frequently seen about the galleys. The printer used to be a very bashful sort of fellow, but now that females are employed in printing offices he will set up with a girl six evenings a week. The types of the human race are scattered lt over the earth, and the printer distributes his types in all directions. The printer is not necessarily a sporting character, ‘but-his form may frequently be seen in the chase. : The printer is often beside himself. That is to say, he frequently stands beside his frame. -

Liké the lawyer, the printer is dependent upon his eases for a livelihood. When a printer has finished his job, he works it off. :

He reckons his work by the token; by this token may you know that he gives you full measure. e \ ¢ Much more might be said of the printer, but this must do for to-day. Let us close by hoping that when he beconres dead matter an imposing stone may be erected to his 'memory.— Boston Iranscripl. : ;

s S Semprere go e Adulteration of Food. e The prévalence of paralysis has caused consideralile comment in our city. Three or four prominent citizens have died recently from paralysis in one form or another, A gentleman well posted on this subject called our attention to this a few days since and remarked that paralysis resulted in. many cases from the use of adulterated food. This gentleman remarked that a large quantity of the flour, sirup, lard, sugar and coffec now used daily was adulterated, and that nearly all the candy made, except rock candy, was also adulterated. If this be true the prevalence of pm’a:{ysis can be easily accounted for. We do not.vouch for what the gentleman says, but it is a subject that will do to ‘investigate. Oné thing we,do know to be true, and that is that something causes the disease, . and if leading articles of food are adulterated, it can be very easily traced to that source. A leading physician, to whose attention this matter has been brought, says that he had no doubt whatever that the prevalence of paralysis now could be traced to the use of :’x&ulteramd food. It isan injury or.disease, he says. of the nervous centers, and acts on a human being just asthe use of impure and worthless lubricating oil does on machinéry. It clogs up the system and the longer 'it is used the more certain it is to finally render the machinery utterly useless. It would be wellfor our Legislature to take some steps to look into this adulteration of food. Ifitis carried on to one-tenth the extent intimated above; 1t should be prevented by penal laws at once. It is a subject that consumers should carefully inspect, and in every instance where there is adulteration of any kind to tufn their forces against it.——Atlanta Constitution., ; ¢ %

* Washing Flannels. ; The belief is quite general that soft, all-wool flannels cannot be washed without shrinking aind getting yellow, and for these reasons many persons deny themselves the luxury of wearing them. But there is no foundationdn’ fact for sucli.a belief, as the softest and finest flannels may be washed an indefinite number of times without becoming harsh or ‘yellow, or shrinking in the Jeast, if the following method is invariably pursued: Dissolve a small quantity of good soap in hot water. A3d cold water enough to form a sufficient quantity of suds.. Be careful not to have the suds too strong. Put the flannels in the cold suds and let them soak for several, hours, when, unless they are very much soiled, they can be cleansed, perfqgﬁ'x by alittle rubbing. If they are very dirty it may be necessary to change the suds in w{ﬁch they are soaked two or three times. . Rinse in cold water soft-. ened with a {little soap or borax. Do not rub soap upon the flannels. A little dissolved borax should be added to the water in which flannels are washed, but no blueing should ever be used. Borax softens and whitens them; blueing renders them harsh- and unsightly. It is best to always iron flannels-before they are quite dry. - e A

Py Mmmm%m Mlonog It is a mistake to suppose that the election of Riddleberger to the Senate from Virginia has no significant effect on Southern polities. It is'a very grave disaster to the Democratic party. The loss of the two Senators from ’e’irginin cannot be compensated for by the odium which will attach to the Republicans by their coalition with the Repudiationists. It destroys the almost even balance in the Senate, and gives the Republicans the control of Lhat%od_v for some years to come. - It will take hard ﬁghtinf; and a long time to recover the advantage we have lost. But the lesson this misfortune teaches is not one of supineness. Bad counsels, and Démocratic antagonisms are at the bottom of the disaster in Virginia. The party which should be united upon every issne is, in a number of States, split into factions. It was so in Virginia. It is so in the West. With the exception of Nebraska, there is no State, perhaps, west of the Alleghanies 'wgg‘re the Democratic party votes as a unit upon. National issues. The finances have demoralized the Democrats of Ohio, Indiana, Wisconsin, and indeed all of the debatable States. - The tariff comes in to’ destroy Democratic ' harmony in Pennsylvania, the New England States, Louisiana, South Carolina, and Colorado. It is useless to say that these things ought not to exist. The fact remains that (they are all pervading evils. That there is’a reason for this condition of things does not alter their significance. - All effects bave their causes. - The trouble in the Demoeratic party everywhere is lack of discipline. The leading issues of the party are not kept with suflicient prominence before the people, nor insisted upon with rigid fidelity by party conventions. It is evident to every Democrat in the country that the party cannot enter a National canvass without a clear and explicit recognition of the fundamental prineiples of the party. These arc hard money, atariff for revenue only, and persistent opposition to the exercise of doubtful powers in legislation. If these principles are essential in a' National campaign, they are equally so in a State .canvass, To be stceesstul the party ‘must retain its organization gnd its discipline. A vietory won by the demoralized elements of a combination of par: ties is no ¥ictory at all. As to Virginia, it is invariably the prelude to subsequent. disaster. Financial heresies has worked the mine of the Democratic party in Virginia. It is menuced by the same evils in Ohio, Indiana, Wisconsin and. Colorado, all of them debatable States which can be made Democratic, if the principles of the party are preserved and maintained.under all circumstances.—Omaha. Herald, 1

Delayed by, a railroad aceident and compelled to remain over Christmas at Fordsville! Here was a predicament for an overworked reader for a popular magazine off for a hard-earned holiday! What made it the more exasperating was that 1 happened to be on my way to visit some friends who had with them | a young lady guest who had been described to nie as such a paragon of love-liness-and worth: that I had quite settled it in my mind that she was destined to prove the #‘inexpressible shel’ whom I had hitherto sought in vain. - | Fordville! Where had 1 heard the name before, and what association had I with the place? Diving deep into the recesses of my memory, Tmade the rather startling discovery that 1 had ’(mce_‘ actually had a correspondent in Ford- | ville. It happened in this way: | A few months back a manuseript had been put into my hands forexamination | which as T at once perceived, was' the | venture of a very young lady, whom I ‘ subsequently discovered to be a certain. Miss Nelly Temple. This fact was| stated in a cdnfidential note to the ed- | itor, the young authoress desiring that | only hernom de plume (a sweetly sentimental one) should be given to -the world. After reading her story, [ had | written to the young lady. and the con- | tents of my letter 1 now found it rather irksome to-recall. After a somewhat more lenient eriticism of heér manuseript than was usual, I 'had been compelled to | write and decline ;the honor of its publication. I had chosen this task myself instead of intrusting it to the corresponding clerk, because I had an jrresistible desire, which Ihardly knew how to explain to myself, *vto let her down gently”” as the phrase is. :The fact is, the little letter that had accompanied the story interested nd pleased me in inverse ratio to the effect of the work itself. The letter was girlish, natural and frank, while the. story was artificial, mawkish and dismal. ' AID the hearts were mgere shattered wrecks, and all the hopes’ deso'late and unrequited. The heroine sighed -and sobbed her way through from beginning to end, and the hero only appeared upon the scene to glare about him with orbs of consuming gT(mm and to discourse solely upon such subjeeéts as wasted hearts and blighted hopes, in‘a basso-profundo voice. In the end, although no reasonable obstacle to their union appeared, they were ruthlessly torn :tSllH(]lGl‘. and the authoress dropped her curtain over tliem like a black pall. It was exeerable, and there was nothing to do but decline with thanks. This 1 ‘did in a note unnecessarily apologetic and diffuse, which had the effect of procuring me another letter from the young authoress. It was a pretty little epistle, as the other had been, and interested me much in the same way. She asked for counsel and adyice, and appealed with awed timidity to my wide literary experience. She told me that she desired to make literature her profession, it being necessary for her to support herself, though, like Dr. Johnson's man, she acknowledged that she had several other irons in the fire. I refrained from imitating his advice and telling her ¢ ‘to put this where the other irons were;’ but I confessed that the witticism recurred to me with a startling fitness.’ Two or three more letters passed between us and then, though 1 had been really interestéd in the innocent young creature, I had, as it annoyed me to remember now, let the correspondence die out. It had left me, however, with a real curicsity as to her nature, experience and strroundings. It was strange that so very young a lady should have come toregard life as such a howling waste and .the world so awfully hollow. Clertainly I could imagine that she might prove rather me]mmﬁnly company if her conversation and ideas resembled her heroine's, as of course they would. Shé was just the sort of writer to feel impelled to write an autobiography. and yet, theugh it seems paradoxical, while her heroine seemed to me the quintessence of dismal insipidity, I felt exhilarated by the thought that my Christmas at Fordville was to be enlivened hy the acquaintance of Miss, Temple. It was too late to make any effort to find out the young lady that night, so after eating’ a very well prepared supper at the village inn, which proved to be as comfortable within as it was dilapidated without, T 'went to bed and slept soundly, waking next morning in- a frame of mind Mark Tapley migﬁt have envied. A bright wood fire was crackling on the hearth as I walked to the window and drew aside the curtain. Outside the ground was covered with snow which had fallen during the night-, and which now lay crisp and sparkling in the brilliant winter sunshine. T dressed hastily. The vital nécessity of having a sleighride at once presented itself, quickened by the sounds of ibells-comingi and going swiftly over the country roads. : After doinf; justice to a deliciously cooked breakfast, I found my way to the front poreh, where my host was walkin up and down, enjoying his pipe. I haﬁ begun' to question him as to the praeticability of procuring a sleigh when the sound of merry laughter smote upcu my ear, and at the same time a da.zzﬁng little creature with fluttering: red ribbons appeared on the poreh of the neat cottage across the way. .She was a perfect little beauty, with a face from which the ideas of merriment and (500(1 humor was inseparable.

The old man received his present with the greatest delight, and after vociferously shouting his thanks across the street, turned and entered the house for the purpose, as he explained, of exhibitl ing the scarlet trophy. As he vanished down the narrow hall, T heard him call out: e ¢t Wife, where areyou? - Come and see the pretty present Miss Nelly Temple has sent me.”’ : ) Miss Nelly Temple! Here was a surprise. Iremembered now that I had heard him ecall her! Miss Nelly, but I had been so engrossed at the time that the name had not struck me, and I had, for the moment, forgotten the existence of my melancholy young high-tragedy authoress. How could she possibly be identical with that piquant little beauty yonder? And I raised my eyes to draw the contrast, only to discover that she had disappeared. I hesitated for 1 moment as to my course, but as I recalled the very grateful and admiring tone of her last %ettvr to me, which had convinced me at the time of its receipt that she bad put me on- a pédestal along with Emerson, Holmes and Longfellow, I thought I -might venture to take a decisive step; so, without more ado, I took my way again across the street, and, walking boldly up the steps, knocked at the door. As I did g 0 I-caught sight of some scarlet ribhons sereened behind the muslin cur- ! tains of the window going on the porch, which now. however, - quickly disap- ' peared. Then I could hear, where I stood, a whispered conference in the Ilmll. and then, in a minute more, the door was opened, not very wide, by a l\ negress, who regarded me rather wrathfully as I said, composedly: } I want to see Miss Nelly Tenple, if vou please.” * Well, you can’t see her then. sah,”’ was the prompti reply. “Why not?* I asked, quietly.

~¢"Cause she says you'll have to excuse her. You can’t see her,” she repeatod, with emphasis. It was clear that she resented my visit as an intrusion and felt called upon to protect her yeung mistress.- : - :

© ¢ But lam very anxious to see ‘her,” I said, urgently. ¢ Take her my card.” I produced one and handed it to her. She looked at it doubtfully a moment, then took it from me with a jerky motion, saying, in an audible undertone:

**She ain’ gwine come,” and disappeared with-it. :

And now the notes of another voice smote upon me dlear and low, hut expressive of a subdued resentment. I don’t care to sec the ecard.,” it said: I cannot see the gentleman: he must excuse me.”’

Then there was a second’s pause, during which, as T shrewdly expected, dignity gave way to curiosity and my card was examined. And sure enough,. the next moment, litile Miss Dignity appeared before me. covered with blushes, holding my card.

¢« Are you really Mr. Julian Moore?”’ she said. 1 beg vour pardon, but I had no idea of it. You must have thought me rude.” Having assared her of my identity and called up in her bonny face a fresh phalanx of dimples, 1 followed her into the parlor. : ‘I thought it was some one stopping at tlie hotel whom I did not know, and felt almost frightened; and I was rude, I'm afraid. You have been so very kind about taking the time to answer my letters that I am ashamed to have given you such a reception.” : She addressed me with so much awed respect that I experienced something of the sensation of a literary lion. for the first and probably the last time in my life, and set myself at once to the task of putting her at ease. linquired about the story and expressed a deep anxiety as to its ultimate appearance in print, assuring her that it needed only a little thoughtful revision to make it a shining success, thereby undoing all my earnest-ly-laid plot to discourage her from writing more, which I had subtly introduced into my letters. I saw that she listened with delighted surprise, and I waxed more and more eloquent, expressing and certainly feeling ten times the emotion and enthusiasm that a talk with George Eliot would have inspired. It was delicious to eall up such a happy light inta those lovely eyes and such a confused pleasure to the sweet voice that responded tome. I was playing the idiot, but I had completely lost my head. After a long talk she explained, with much hesitation, that she would be obliged to get ready for clurch, as she played the organ and must not be late, and when I asked, feeling a strange timidity myself, whether I migﬁt be allowed to accompany her, she told me the church was several miles away and that an uucle and aunt who lived in the country would call for her in their rockaway.

* But wouldn't a sleigh do as well as a rockaway?' I asked, a delightful project suggesting itself. *‘ Perhaps [ might: get a single sleigh and drive you out!” : ~ She hesitated a moment, and I could seq that the project delighted her. So I said no more, but retarned to Uncle Davy and procured the use of a shabby little box on runners, with a steady little horse, and when I appeared at the door ollwposite’ I was soon: joined by Miss Temple, who looked prettier thanever in a coquettish little fur mutt and, collar.

A few minutes later we were skimming over the countryroads with hearts as light "as air. 1 had forgotten my friends who were expecting me elsewhere—forgotten the brilliant young lady who had been good enough to express some interest in' my coming. I had forgotten everything and every%ody on eartﬁ,jml-eed, except the bewildering little being beside me. It was so kind of you to come with me,” I said. * How can I ever thank you enough? It shows me what a generous and confiding nature you have, and you never shall regret it."’ «Why, of course, 1 was delighted to come with you, Mr. Moore.” sﬁe said, looking at me with wide, questioning eyes. *I am sure I ought to do everythingyou ask after all the valuable advice you have been kind enough to give me.””. .

When we reached the church I could see that my appearance was perceived with great surprise by Nelly's young friends in the choir, Which was increased by the fact of my joining in, brave zmdy strong, in the music which Nelly accompanied and ° led. She praised my singing very highly afterward, and said my voice furnished just the support hers needed. What a happy day that was, and what a never-to-be-forgotten thing was our ride home. I wentt, over and spent that evening with Nelly, and she took me into her confidence and friendship in the sweetest way in. the world. ' Of course she introduced me to her people, and I had to be inspected by tEem, but I soon found that they were all her willing slaves and her approval of me was the only guarantee they required. Indeed they were, one and all, so unconventional and unworldly that I felt a little unensly at the t,hou[fht of my dear little Nelly's being without -a more capable protector, and not averse to assuming the position m‘i'sclf. I wrote to my friends and made some convenient excuse for not“_‘jbfhin% them and spent all my holiday in Fordville. : At my own rq;]uept one evening Nelly brought out the familiar manuscript dnd e read it over together. I managed 10 keep down my irreverant laughter at lm reiterated siggi;g's aid sobbifigs and complainings. Only once, in the prin-

sv Sl e i S s ieK i g eS ik cipal lové-scene, in which was reached the acme of i*s dismalness; I looked tip at her, shyly, andsaid: =~ "7 . +tls this really your idea of love? Do you believe when two people are in love with each other that they go through all these dreadful tortures and suffer all these agonizing pangs?”’ & . 1o l:l.c:) utter amazement, she replied by snatching thé pages out of my hands and throwing them into the fire. As I sprang up in the vain endeavor to check her, I eaught her two hands in mine, and having caught them, I held them. ' » < Let it burn,”’ she said, tumini her flushing face toward me; ¢ I never knew how utterly silly and absurd it was before.” : .~ *“And have you learned since?’ I ‘asked, still holding her hands and now foreing her to look at me. . * Tell me, Nelly, who has taught you? You must not forget that you have chosen me for your critic and instructor, and if you'll let me teach you this one lesson, and -will try to learn it faithfully, you will have reached such a state of mature development that you will need no more ‘ culture. Only learn what it is to love truly, and allow your teacher to select the object, and you will possess all the knowledge and cultivation he will ever require of you.” it It came upon her very suddenly and a few preliminary exercises were necessary before she quite satisfied me as a pupil, but the giving those lessons was the greatest joy 1 had ever known, as the result of them was what I consider the finest success of my life. Uncle Davy was much sur({)rised at the turn of affairs and a good deal ﬁuzzled at the preliminaries, .or rather the lack of any such. } “Lor’, 1 never dreamed of his being Miss Nelly's young man,”’ he said to his wife. '

I wonder why he’s never been to Fordyille before,” returned the good woinan, meditatively. /4

(v Si el it Yerserv ssl Siag X l ¢ I-asked him about that,”’ said Uncle Davy, ‘‘but he kinder smiled and said that, though he had never been to Fordville before, he had for some time been in.correspondence with the place, and Jthat Miss Nelly was far from. being a ‘stranger. I suppose she met him when she was-off on that visit last year and has been corresponding with him ever since.” s s

This explanation was circulated throughout the town, as I intended it shou'd be, and seemed to be entirely satisfactory. 1 had a bold plan of hurrying up the wedding when once I had. secured Nelly's consent, and’ so successful did this prove that two months after that day on ‘which [ first made acquaintance with Fordville, Nelly and I were married there.. : ‘And to think that all thkis came about through that dismal story that Nelly and I have such laughs over now! Well, tet those who may, climb to the loftiest heights of literary eminence, I shall not grudge them their success. Being a rather overworked and underpaid reader for a magazine may not be considered the pinnacle of literary glory, but it has been the means of winning me a treasure which *l. would not exchange for the fame of Shakspeare.— Detroit Free Press. L e Dietetic Value of Good Pickles. The actnal dietetic value of "good pickles ranks with that of condiments: they are simply aids to the appetite and’ they affect digestion only relatively unless they are consumed in enormous quantities. Eaten in ordinary fashion, they are solely a medium for the absorption of vinegar and spice, or useful as a modification of a too greasy dish: a few drops of vinegar or lemon juice would serve the same purpose. - When vinegar is taken moderately it angments the action of the salivary glands, assuages thirst, and sliglitly facilitates digestion by acting as asolvent upon certain protern compounds; used in excess it impairs digestion, thus preventing the proper assimilation of nutriment, and causing emaciation. No more striking illustration of its opposite effects can be given than by contrasting its use by the field laborers of Southern Europe, who mix a gill of vinegar and a pinch of salt in a gallon of cold water, and drink it while working: in the sun, and unwise young women who drink it clear to reduce their flesh. The legitimate effects of vinegar are common to many aeid fruits, sueh” as currants, barberries, gooseberries, cranberries, lemons and limes, and vegetable pickles of all kinds. Therefore, we may be justified in according praise to pickles, especially to those made by the well-conducted house-wife who will no more put copper cents among them or boil them in a brass kettle to green them than she will expose her family to the 'dangers of those cups of cold poison with which the popular fancy cretlits the pickle traders mingling with their wares. Well she knows she may produce reasonably green pickles without becoming a rival of the illustrious compounder of aqua tofana. The minor dangers of pickling her acidulous delicacies in tin or glazed earthenware vessels she will also avoid, since she will be aware that boiling vinegar will take unto itself a modicum of the metal and a portion of the lead which often enters into the composition of the glaze; she will also preserve them in ung'fazed earthen or glass jars for like reasons, and keep them in a cool place closely sealed from the air; as the vinegar is absorbed she will replace it, so that there is always an inch or more above the pickles. }f from a large jara little is to be used, she will take out that little with a wooden spoon, and at once carefully replace the ¢overings or corks; the best covering over the lids of jars or the corks of bottlés is a picce of bladder wet in cold water and then tightly tied down in such a way as to exclude all air. If the presence of/ copper is feared in pickles which are bought, a bright steel darning or knitting needle placed among them and allowed 'to remain for a couple of hours will acquire a perceptible coating of copper. 'The addition of alum to pickles for the purpose of hardening them is another questionable point. =~Alum is a powerful astringent, and its effect. when used in excess, is to check the secretions, and consequently to impair normal health. If used to make pickles erisp, not more than a saltspoonful should be added to each gallon; this quantity might not prove injurious, as but a small portion of it would be consumed by an individual. —Juliet Corson, in N. Y. Times. | - ——— ———— The Prisoner and the Mouse. A pathetic case was recently heard before Mr. Justice Hawkins. John Ed-. wards, a prisoner in Coldbath Fields Prison, sent there for uttering counterfeit coin, had tamed a mouse as a companion, and formed a great friendship for him. The .warders had taken this mouse from him and killed it, the prison rules not, of course, allowing the prisoners to keep pets.. "The prisoner, enraged at the death of hisfavorite, had assaulted one of the warders, and was indicted for the assault. Mr. Justice Hawkins charged favorably for the prisoner, expressing a good deal of sympathy for him, and the jury acquitted him. The truth is, that this was just a case which judicious prison authorities would have - winked at. Of course, it would never do to permit prisoners to have favorite animals with them, but a -mouse would not be often found in suck a prison, still less the patience and gentleness requisite to tame it; and tﬁere could have been nothing but good in ignoring' this slight and exceptional breach of prison rules. Rut warders, dressed in a little brief - authority over a very rough set of men, are almost always tyrannic at Weart. If the prisoner had not been enraged by the eruel killing of his little companion, 'he would have been a worse man than he is.——London Spectator. ¥ e ; e : —Hon.
