Botna time ago a friend of mine, who was returning from a long toar, discovered that the train on which be was traveling did not stop at the station near which his home wa& If be stayed on the train he found that be would not be able

reach home that night.

It so chanoed that he knew the conductor of the train very well, and he asked him if be could suggest any way out of the difficulty. The conductor said that the rules of the road would not allow him to stop the train at the way station in question, hut be said he thought be knew away by which the gentleman could gt* out where be wished to. "After we pass and are nearing the station at which you dear® to get out," said the conductor, "I will come around and collect tickete, and you will profess to be unable to find younL Tlien I shall, as the rules of the road direct, put you off the train."

The plan worked like a charm. When the conductor came around the passenger appeared to be unable to find his ticket, and the former said be was very sorrv, but be would have to stop the train and put him off. But, unfortunately, a passenger sitting in the next seat very charitably volunteered to pay the gentleman's fare to Pittsburg. Hera was a difficulty which neither the conductor nor the passenger had thought ot

My friend, however, had the. nerve to immediately declare that it was a matter of principle that be had paid for his ticket once and "didnt intend to pay for it again, or that any one else should pay it for him. He would rather be thrown from the train than give up his idea of what was right As the train reached the station at which my friend wished to alight, the conductor pulled the boll rope and the train was stopped. My friend got off, said "Thank you" to the conductor under his breath, and walking up to his house, which was near the station, stopped at the mite and waved his handkerchief to the philanthropic gentleman who had wished to pay his fare.—Pittsburg Dispatch.

Large Bridges.

The largest suspension bridge in the work) is that crossing East river between Kbw York city and Brooklyn the total length of tho bridge is 5,060 feet length of main span 1,505 feet and 6 inches, and of each land span 930 feet length of the three spafas, 8,455 feet and 6 inchea The length of the Brooklyn approach Is 971 feet, and of the New York approach, 1,502 feet and 0 inches. It was begun Jan. 80, 1870, opened to the public May 34, 1883. Total cost, $15,000,000.

Tho largest stone bridge on the face of the earth is that finished in May, 1885, at Lagang, China. Chinese engineers had sole control of its construction.

It crosses an arm of the China sea, is nearly six miles in length, is composed entirely ot stone, and has 800 arches, each 70 feet high. It is the most colossal structure ever reared by man, yet we sneer at the "Heathen Chinee."

The largest truss iron bridge in the world crosses the Firth of Tay, Scotland. It is 18,012 feet in length and composed of 85 spans.

Tho longest wooden bridge in the world is that crossing Lako Pontchartrain, near New Orleans, La. It is a trestlework 21 miles in length, built of cypress piles which have been saturated with creosote oil to preserve them.

The highest bridge in the United States is over Kiozina creek, near Bradford, Pa. It was built in 1862, has a total span of 2,051 feet, "fi is S01 feet above tho creek bod.—St. Louis Republia

Cockroaches In Its Stomach.

William Amos, proprietor of the St. James hotel, on Hughson street, Hamilton, Ont,, went up to his dinner about half post 12 o'clock, and .Mrs. Amos went down stairs to mind the bar room., Meantime their little infant, 5 weeks old, was left lying in the cradle in an upper bed room. When Mrs. Amos returned to the up stairs apartments she heard the baby crying and at once took it up in her arms. She noticed that be was deadly pale and was gasping for breath. In a moment the frightened mother saw a large cockroach in the child's mouth, which she pulled out. Two others came up in a little whilo, and the now thoroughly alarmed mother rushed off to consult Dr. Lafferty. That gentleman had never heard of such a case before. He said that the infant oould not stand strong medicine, but be gave the mother a mild emetic to administer. This had the effect of bringing up another cockroach bigger and uglier than any of its predecessors. It was nearly an inch long and w&* caught by Mrs. Amos on tho child's tongue. Every one of the insects was alive. —Philadelphia Times.

Cradle of Civilisation.

Of all such cities there is not one which is as little known, and which nevertheless has played such a continuous and varied role on the world's stage, as Caetrogiovanni, the ancient Enna, which had the great honor of giving birth to the first civilisation within the memory of Europe, that same civilization that a small Qreek nation trdbto bring to perfection and to light the world with.

Prom the sublime crater of Etna, raised into the upper regions of air, looking over sky and sea, the eye takes in the whole perimeter of Sicily, and in the midst of its mountain ranges and Its valleys, that resemble the waves of a stormy sea petrified by some mysterious power, there appears as a great vessel, solitary and mighty, anchored in the midst of these petrified surges, a crag shaped a truncated cone. It is on this rock, whoee situation in the center of the Island cftutsd it to be called by the Greeks the navel of Bteily, that Cartrogiovanni is perched, iidti a true eagle's nest, in an impregnable position.—A. P. Jacaasy.in Scriboer's.

Jostle* and Sentimentality. Justice and sentimentality have nearly always been hostile to each other. Sentimentalists are pecpte who have not suffered from villainy. No father was ever a sentimentalist whose daughter suffered violence from ymi* brute. Sentimentalism is only comnatr (ble with an outrage on somebody else. We are glad that the judges of our courts see society in all the relations of wrong Mn There ore times when the beat of humanity experience a eomfortabfe satisfaction at the supremacy of justice.

An English judge at Bristol, not kxig ago, regretted that be oould not add the laeh to the punishment of five years' transportation which he upon a ruiBan guilty at assaulting a child and at Liverpool Mr. Justice Charles gave three prisoners, who had robbed and Mrutally awaulWd a woman, fifttaaa lasbos with the cat, in addition to six months' imprisre*nant» That judge will have the respect of sen and wonwm co whom best interests of society depend.—The cfeebytartaa.

and

There are some subjects which newer gro» so old as to be uninteresting to the masBee. •'Good society" is one of them. It engrossee the attention of metropolitan life no til mi the vague wonder of provincial

ax-

istenoa. No woman is so ignorant that she doee not haw aome sort of notion concerning a fetich which she has beard called "good society." To her may mean only the possession of hideous chromce and frightful "lac©" curtains in the sacred precincts set apart as village "parlors it may mean "keeping help," and so having leisure to gossip over bade fenoee *nH talk about nothing on front piazzas or in stuffy little front rooms.

No matter about the term "good society" "hath a magic before which saint and sinner, Jew and Gentile, rich and poor, high and low make profound obeisanca

THE GOLDEN JTBAK.

There are certain "bohemian" natures who will affirm that they "care nothing for society yet they mean by this that they do not consider "the. play worth the candle*." They decline to enter the lists where misguided souls dream of "good society," and think it moans agonized efforts to obtain microscopic views of the precise differences between tweedledum and twoedlede©.

Tbesa bohemians are in danger of going to the other extreme, and in their anxiety to escape "the petty solicitudes of middle class gentility" become slangy, coarse, abrupt, and even offensive.

As a rule tboee are to be equally avoided who care too much or too little for "society," which is, perhaps, but another word for conventionality in its general acceptation.

The overconventional are narrow, soulless, and hone© without breadth of mind or tenderness of heart. They ask never what is true, but what is popular never what is just, but what is "required" by mere Grundyism. They do not ask, Who is my brother! nor yet, How shall I serve my neighbor! They ask only, Who is in the swimf Their object is pleasure their bete noir is annoyance. They have no power to comprehend great things, yet they overestimate little things. They remind one of savages who will exchange great wealth for painted glass and to whom a looking glass is of more value than a library. Give them "a thought that would have delighted Plato" and they still require references from ycur tailor or dressmaker concerning your valu&

The question is not how agreeable are you as an acquaintance! It is onljuto what houses are you^nytted and what is your visiting list! V"1",, .%*

When such persons pose ae the arbiters of social destiny and proclaim themselves the apostles of "good society," it is not strange that we find now and then a protest such as this: "Good society is a phantom which lures many a man of talent and virtue into a nonsensical sacrifice of self for the conversation of pigmies and the sympathy

fiats."

Nevertheless the truth remains that "pigmies" and flats are not good society. Tliey may know the fine art of keeping still when they have nothing to say*. They may possess the polite accomplishment of "keeping their hands and feet to themselves" and refrain from "kicking shins or punching ribs."

So long as tbey oonfine themselves to the dumb show of leaving cards, eating dinners, or prancing as dummies to display the skill of tailor or modiste they "do well enough," yet whfn they essay conversation they prove the truth of Josh Billings' assertion, "There is no substitute for wisdom but silence."

They can show you "a perfect poem of a dress yef when they offer a thought it is a poor Indian blanket of mental barbarity pitiful to behold.

The golden mean between the poor pretenses of mediocrity aping "gentility," and behemianism outraging all delicacy of feeling is perhaps difficult, yet is the true ideal.

The fine flower of the highest civilization is not manifested by an animal devotion to creaturo comfort. It is not mere sybaritien, nor yet a fierce intellectuality trampling in the dust every sweet flower of courtesy, every gracious tribute to les biensances as being "too puerile." "BB THOU THE TRCB MAW." 4

As the heart must oferays be a higher and holier power than tho head, so do we prize our acquaintances not so much for what they know as what tbey have power to make and feeL

We enjoy wit, yet if it be accompanied by carelessness or barbed with malioe the wound it inflicts upon our sensibilities'may destroy thepleasure of its intellectual enjoyment.

We are pleased with learning, yet if it be linked with cynicism a cold and self centered impossibility, or an irritable desire for supremacy, we eschew it as pedantry and shun it as a baleful egotism.

One of the fine uses of conventionality is its inexorable rtemand that people shall repress whatever is disagreeable. This tends to check the coarse selfishness that must have its own way and indulge its own feeling without any regard for who may be hurt or hind era! thereby. It induces care also that one offend not the eye by unpleasing effects nor the ear by discordant sounds or improper language, nor the mental taste by crude thoughts or ignoble sentiments.

A due regard, for accepted standards cannot be other than educational in its influence and sanctifying in its last results, far whatever induces self knowledge and calf improvement tends to civilise and Christianise the world.

Wheat and Whence It Came.

Wheat, which is now the bread corn of twelve European nations, and is fast sapplanting maize in America and several inferior grains in India, was no doubt widely grown in tho prehistoric world. The Chinese cultivated it 2TOO B. C. as a gift direct from heaven the Egyptians attributed its origin to Isis and the Greeks to C&es. A classic account of the distribution of wheat over the primeval world shows that Geres, having taught her favorite Triptolemu* agriculture and the art of bread making, gave him her chariot, celestial vehicle which he used in useful travels for the purpose of distributing corn to all nations.

Ancient monuments show that the cultivation of wheat had been established in Egypt before the invasion of the shepherds, and there is evidence th^t more productive varieties of wheat have taken the place of one, at least, of the ancient sorts. Innumerable varieties exist of common wheat. OoL Le Contour, of Jersey, cultivated 150 varieties. Mr. Darwin mentioned a French gentleman who had collected 323 varieties, and the great firm of French seed uierchants^vilmarin-Andrieux et Cie., cultivate about twice as many in their trial grounds npar Paris.

Three small grained varieties of common wheat were cultivated by the first lake dwellers of Switzerland (time of Trojan wai% and as well as by the less ancient lake dwellers of western Switzerland and of Italy, by the people of Hungary in the stone age, and by the Egyptians on the evidence of a brick of a pyramid in which a grain was imbedded, and to which the date of 3339 B. C. has been assigned. The existence of names for wheat in the most ancient languages confirms this evidence of the antiquity of its culture in all the more temperate parts of Europe, Asia and Africa, but it seems improbable that wheat has ever been found growing persistently in a wild state, although the fact has often been asserted by poets, travelers and historian*.

In the Odyssey, for example,

are told

that wheat grew in Sicily without the aid of man, but a blind poet could not have seen this himself, and a botanical fact can hardly be accepted from a writer whose own existence has been contested. Diodorus repeats the tradition that Osiris found wheat and barley growing promiscuously in Palestine, but neither this nor other discoveries of persistent wild wheat seem to us to be credible, seeing that wheat does not appear to be endowed with a power of persistency except under culture.—Edinburgh Review.

The Fox Feigned Death.

There is one man in this grot state whoee superiority in his peculiar line of effort is never disputed—and that's Dan Gammon, of Canton, the celebrated teller of fox stories. There lives not in all Maine a person having sufficient hardihood to match himself against Dan Gammon in this art. "Boys." says Dan, "I wus out huntin' a fox' on old Canton Maountin one day. I heard my baound er bayin' down on the west side uv the maountin, and I knew he wu* chasin' the fox and that cf I stood still abaout where I wuz the fox would circle raound thar bime

Yes, Koys, actually skairt ter death! "Weil, I peeled his hide off and left the carcass thar.

Along range globe sighted rifle in the hands of a marksman can be made to run up a score of bull's eyes down a firing range, but will' it in the timber do better work on deer than a bored oat musket loaded with nine buckshot! The sire of your gaune bag, or rather bag of game, depends a great deal on tfce knowledge of the firearms you're used to. An estimable English lady who came to Canada some twenty-five years ago was one day deeply interested in getting out the family washing. She had sheets and tablecloths out drying, when to her horror she saw the line go down and her spotless clothes trampled in the dirt. A large buck caught by the antlers was the cause of the trouble.

A writer in The Nineteenth Century says: "Within doors we find that the number of micro, organisms suspended in the air dopends, ns we should have expected, upon tho number of people present, and the amount of disturbance of the air which is taking place. In illustration of this the following experiments, made at one of the Royal society's conversaziones, held at Burlington house last year, may be mentioned. At the commencement of the evening, when a number of persons were already present, and the temperature was at G7 dogs. Fahr., the two gallons of air examined yielded 326 organisms later on, as the rooms became densely crowded, as indicated by the temperature rising to 73 degs. Fahr., the 'number reached 433. The next morning, on the other hand, when the room was empty, the air yielded only 130, but even this is doubtless in excess of the number which would be present in the room in question under normal conditions, in which, judging from experience, I should expect to find about 40 to 60 in the same volume of air
