The neat had been made in the coziest of corners bedde the river, overhang by rocks, and with wild flowers and rnshes bending down ukm it. ' It was so cool and sh.ady there throngh the hot snmmer days, except when, cjoite early in the morning, the son's rays glinted down between the birch trees on the The pair had agreed it was time for the children to take to water â€" at least for some of them â€" BO while the father bird remained in the nest with those who were hatched later, the mother tamed oat with the older ones. Two were already enjoying the water, but jost as the other little dackUng was going to make a plonge he happened to look ap, and he caught sight of a dragon fly. As it hovered over him and then glanced away, its brilliant gauzy wings glittering in the snnlight, it quite turned his head. And like many another young creature he fixed his mind on something he had not and for- Spt all about what he had. " Why can't I fly like that I want to fly," he said again. " Patience, my child," replied the wise mother " you will fly some day, but you have no wings yet â€" only legs. You must use your legs in the Hater as we are doing, and that will help you to grow properly. If you do your part in the present you will be Preparing for the future. Yon have got to e educated, you know don't you see T' But the young duckling did not eee and be would not listen. He only flopped his tiny stumps of wings and stared up at the dragon-fly. If he had been a child he would have pouted, but as it was he did whatever It is that duel s do when they are sulky, and he turned his back as his brothers paddled away. I^y after day it was just the same he would not take to the water because he wanted the air. He moped and moped, and this was all his cry " I want ts fly I want to fly." Of course he could not grow. He was not using the means for developing himself, so he oould not be a duck all round. In long- ing for the future he lost the present. He got smaller instead of bigger, n 1 would have dwindled down to nothing, I suppose, had not a prowling fox one night poanced on him â€" a poor starved duckllcg, and a very meager supper after all It is no good our longing for the future uiiless we are preparing for it in the present. Because what we havA now is alivays the training for what we are to have by and by. And ah it la no use our wanting to get to heaven unless we are employing the right means and making life the training pi ce for eternity. Hatore's Story Book. Mrs. Cortwright was reading, and smiled as she read. " vTo^^ makes yon laugh, mamma 1" ask- ed Euth. "LlsJen, dear And Nature, the old nurse, took The child up an her knee, SayiDg, • Here's a etory-book Thy Father has written tor thee. " That's pretty," sadd Ruth. ' Are you sure you understand it t ask- ed her mother. " I understand thatâ€" of cotatse I do," an- swered Ruth, surprised that her mamma should doubt her. " • Nature' means^ all out-doors, and the story-book is about birds and t eea and everything you see out there." ' You darling child you do understand better than I though^," said mamma, giving her little girl a fond kiss. " 1 11 go out, now, I guess, and read in the story-book," said little Ruth. "All alone, dear? Don't you want some one to read to yon '" for Ruth could not read lainted books very well, and always asked muminii. or Amt Lucy to read to her she said she understood better so. " Oh, I can read easy lessons out-doors," she said so her mother tied en the white sun-hat and the little girl tripped away into the garden. Vnken she came in, a long time after, she seated herself on a little bench at her moth- er's feet " Now, dear mamma, let me tell yon about the stories. The first was ants they made hills all along the walks, and wer» so busy every minute bringing grains of sand to make the hill higher and there wasn't one that didn't workâ€" not one little naughty ant that said ' I won't ' or ♦ I don't want to.'" ,. .. .V " Then I saw beesâ€" the bees that gather honey all the day from every opening flow- er ' they were busy too." " Like the ants ' " They were better than the ants, cause they sang all the timeâ€" not like the birds, but they hummed and buzzsd, and it sound- ed real nice, they sremed so happy. ' Then there Were the applesâ€" the little- children aprfeaâ€" green and small and hard and sour. They are not good for much till they are bg men-and-women apples â€" ripe and sweet. The storybook said, 'Little children aren't worth much now, but let em be by and by they'll be grown up, and then they'U be good for something. The mother smUed " I think your book was very interesting, Ruthie, and you can read it better than I thought.

A church at Terre Haute has. been built in just sixteen days from the time the stone was laid. It is " vflty beautiful, finished in native woods, with windows of sapphire and ruby glass." The Lancet states that a German observ- er has found that cows milked three times a day gives much more milk than whon milk- ed twice only, and that the proportion of it is the same in both cases. An attempt to punish an unruly boy in a Holyoke, Mass., school last week, brought on such a general fight that the police had to be called in to quell it, isid the teacher and two pupils were marched off to the station house. The Portland (Me. Board of Health will place an officer on the Grand Trunk train, who will go out as far as Danville Junction snd examine all parsengers and baggage coming from Montreal, using a system of checks to prevent persons getting thr ugh. In Germany the iDspection of pigs for trichina: is more thorough than is generally supposed. The Me'Hcinische Wochenschrijt state that in one year there were establish- ed in Prussia 20,636 official iospecting stations. Oat of 4,000.000 of the animals examined, 2,000 were trichinous. The Geimans have nearly stamped out small-pox. I9 the] years 1870 1874 the number of deaths from the disease per 100,- 000 inhabitents in London, Paris, Vienna, Prague, and St. Petersburg was 101.05. In Bsrlin, Breslau, Hamburg, Munich, and Dresden during the tame period it was but 1.44. The painted rock of S-nta Barbara coun- ty, Gil., is 150 feet hizh, and npcn it are many color paintings in a good state of pre- servation that are thought to be the work of Indians. There are two caves in this giant rock, one at its base and another some six- ty feet up, and in each of these are pictures of animals. The French Government would like to give the army the privilege of wearing beards, but feels the necessity of first consulting sev- eral high millitry authorities, as the opinions on the subject are contradictory. Mean- while the press falls back on history, and duds that the conquerors of all ages were about equally divided between the shorn and tLe unshofu. The French lady doctors have carried the day. Henceforth the female medical stud- ents will be mtsdtmoi elks les internes, and as such th:y will be admitted to hspitals on the same terms as their male colleagues. Sixty a?piran'5 to the M.

There is in the extreme north of Utah a magnificent subterranean reservoir of first- class soda water, bubbling and effervescing out 'f the ground in such quantities that all America might be suplied. In the ex- treme south, on the road to Orderville, is an exquisite circular lakelet that is iJways just full to the brim with water as clear and as green ss beryl. And wherever the water overflows the lake's edge it enciusta with a fiue coating of limestone, so that the brim Is growing higher and higher with im- p rceptible but cer a!n gio vth of a coral reef, and in the ..uurse of generations the lake will become a concreted basin. The cave out of which Gen. Israel Putnam dragged the wolf is seldom visited, because it is in a stony mountainous forest in a re« mote comer of Connecticut. A picnic party this summer made the tedious trip, which involved several, miles of rough walking. There are pictures in primers of Putnam en- tering the cave erect, with a blazing, torch held above his head. The ho'.e is really so small that it can only; be explored 'on hands and knees, and an adult cannot turn round in it. The length is 300 feet, and tradition says that he followed tlie beast to the further end, shot him between the eyes by thcJr own glow, and was drawn out with him by means of a rope. Not many years ago the late Lord Strath- naim was staying in a country house in Yorkshire. Among the gueste in the smok- ing room one night were seme young cav- alry cfficers, who were narrating tales of various skylarking adventare in which they had lately been engaged. The veteran to k himself off to bed, and, his room being over- heaa, they shortiy after heard the furniture in that apartment being moved about. The next morning some one alluded to this at breakfast. Ha, ha " said Lord S., "I was not going to let you youngsters say you had • drawn' a Field Marshal, so I put tte ch^ of drawers against the door." He wm over seventy at the time. ' A Fuufu Tiiok* SobertHeIl«r, the famous «»e^j^^ died a few years ago need to exhiUt wttt delight one trick of which he wm^^JT nond. He wonld stop to the front rf the platform, holding out at """JW » ^naU bird-cage. In which hopped and chirp- ed a Uve sparrow. Extending tte cue above his head, and grasping it with both hands, ho would say.â€" _^ M Ladies and gentiemen, ou see this cage. It ii a real cage, isn't It T You see the bird. It is a real bird, isn't It? Now watch me closely. The moment I snap my fingers, the cage and bird wUl vanish into thfa air. He would tne snsp his fingers,- and both cage and bird would disappear, leavug not so much as a feather behind. Calvert, a F ench wonder-worker, h!.^^ng head of the birdcage tri k, determined to dis -over its soeret. He came to the per- formance one evening armed with a power- ful opera-glass. Just as Heller stopped upon the platform, with the csgein his hands, Calvert called out.â€" " Put the cage down on the table, or bold i it out by one hand." Hello' ma3e a reasonable eicuse for not doing anything of the kind, and immediate- ly caused the cage t odisappear, as usual. The next merning Calvert, who was on good tormswithHt Her, called upon him at his hotel. •«Ah, monsieur!" said the Frenchman, "I have discovered your great bird-cage trick at last " " Have you 2" replied HeUer. "Pray de- scribe it." " No. Come to my performance to-mor- row night, and you shall see it." " \^ery well," said Heller. "If yon can perform the trick, you are the only Uvirg person, besides myself, who can do it." Heller went to the evening performance, and took a front seat. After the usual tricks with cards and pistols had been performed. Calve it came forward with a bird-cage, in which could be seen a small bird flutterins; about. Holding the cage out at arm's length, be said â€" " Laiiies and gentlemen, you will see here to-night, for the first time, the great bird- cage trek of the American wizurd. Heller. I have had the honor to discover the secret of this trick, and I now perform it before you as my own, when I rnap my fingers, the L-ige and bird will disappear." Tjooking directly at Heller, with a smile, Calvert snapped his lingers, and the bird- cage vanished. At Heller's death the method ofinaking the cage and causing It to disappear, was disclosed The cage,made of the fiiest and most del- icate wires, were separated into two com- partmenta by a thin partition. Those two compartments were held together by minute but powerful springs, which were made to open by pressing two wires, one on each side of the age. The two wires were held by the performer between his thumb and finger, as he extend- ed the cage at arm's-length. Each compart- ment of the cage was so made that when the springs which held them together were ' loosened, the compartments would ooll.p8e, or fold ep, irto a very small compass. Attached to each side of ths c^ge, close by the wires held by the finger and thumb of the performer, were stnut elastic cords run- ning up the ioside of Heller's sleeves, and fastened at eome point above his elbows. The bird chosen for the cage was ona of the smallest varieties of sparrow, and he was placed in the compartment to which the partition belonged. Suppose the performer now ready to ex- hibit the cage. He steps out, holdirg it up at arm's-length. The elastic bahd«, being on the inner side of his hands and wrists, are not perceived by the audience. He snaps bis fingers, that is, he presses the wires which let the cage fall apart each side col- lapses, and the lores of the tightly-stretehed ruobei^ pulls each section of the cage np the performer's sleeves. The bSfd Is dra-ira up with the side in which it was placed, and, strange to say, is not oft«a seriously injured by this operation. Every part of this trick requires the ut- most skill and the most delicate handling in every detail to make it successful. The fact that Heller performed the trick hundreds of times before attentive audiences, without betraying the secret of it, shows to what an extent attention to details may enable a man to triumph over the seemingly impos- sible. "Ladies." Cultivation alone will not make a lady of a vulgar Woman, nor a gentleman of a boor. Innate vulgarity will manifest itself in spite of all forms of politeness and etiquette. To a certain class of persons, indifference is the tect of high-breeding. If you educate a man or a woman to insensibility, he in their view is a gentleman, and she is a lady. A woman was one day brought before the judge of a police court. She said in her.de- fence, â€" " Me and another lady was a-having a few words, and she called me a ' hindewid- ual,' and I ups with a pall of water, and chucked it all over her, and that began the row lietween me and the other lady." Me and another lady indeed The following notice was once put up over the door of a show "No lady or gentleman admitted into this show in a state of intoxication." A hand-bill in St. Louis read,â€" " One hundred rats to be killed by one dog fa ten minutes. None but gtntkmen "â- eexpeotod to be present on this oocasion." ^The advertisement of a doB-fiuht in a Western town read,â€" " Tickets admitting both gentleman and lady can bs had for one dollar." A very elegantiy dressed woman once rudely pushed a man from a crowded side- walk, saying as she did so,â€" " Aint you got any more manners than to stand right m front of a lady ' A shabbily dressed woman aooldentallv ran against a superb looking woman whow dress and manner indicated the perfest " I beg your pardon, madam," sUd the poor woman m the most humble manner t»,l V° «;V^y *M»g " Migrily retorted the elegantly clad woman.
