Thurman is said to be breaking down physically. He takes no exercise at all. Since his retirement from public life he hasgot into the way of shutting himself up in his library, reading nearly all night, avd then re- tiring so late as not tu rise before noon. His wife is it] enough to be confined to her bed, but she tries earnestly to per- suade the “Old Roman” to take more out-door air. —That old Bourbon, the London Sat- urday Review, thus protests against a new spelling of the name of a classical author: “‘For men of letters who are scholars and scholars who are men of letters there is no such vocable as | ‘Vergil’ in the world, nor ever will be. ‘Vergilius’ in Latin, if you like (you needn't. but if you like). But ‘Virgil’ in English, absolutely, peremptorily, without stay of judgment, without leave to appeal.” —There is just a faint possibility that babies may supersede as fashionable pets the pampered lap-dog. The duchess of Portland has taken an odd and, per- haps, unaccountable fancy to be very proud of her baby daughter and to avail herself of every opportunity of having the little woman with her. When the duchess opened the great Kensington bazar recently baby Lady Victoria was proudly displayed to the public in her mother's arms. Whatever is English “goes,"’ and why not this? —The late Mrs. E. L. Davenport was a most charming and estimable wom- an. She was a very beautiful girl when, as Mrs. Vining, she met and married the actor Davenport. Her daughter Fannie has had some claim to good looks, but it appears to have been an instance of a ‘mother prettier than a pretty daughter.” All of her five daughters acquired reputations on the stage, and her two sons have made names for themselves in their profes- sion. —London Punch reached its tiftieth birthday recently. In all this time it is said that it has never contained a vulgar or immoral illusion by pen or pencil; it has been a pure and respectable sheet. FH has reflected the signs of the times. It has been patriotic in its spirit. It has encouraged the artists who have the power to put humor into caricature. A writer in the Contemporary Review points out that every person who had genius as a comic artist has drifted into the company of Punch artists and writers during the last fifty years.

The girl was kept within the house till her eyes gathered full strength, and was permitted gradually and sparingly to go out of doors. It so happened that some time elapsed after her recovery before she went into the open air after nightfall. One evening she rushed into | the parlor with her face aglow withex- citement. The joy of a great discovery illumined every feature. “Oh, come!” sheexplained; “eome | out quickly to the lawn and see what | beautiful things have appeared in the sky!” | Her friends hastily followed her out of doors, wondering what might have occurred. They saw nothing. “What do you mean?” they asked | her. “Look!” she said. pointing eagerly Heavenward, “don't you see those bright things up there? There they are —and there — sparkling all over the sky!” My dear child,” said one who loved her, “those are the stars.” Yes, the stars, which she had not seen before. Friends could hardly realize the fact that for all the years of her life the dear child had been moving through God's world with a limited vision, see- ing only what lay close around her, utterly oblivious that there were stars, hosts of stars, all over the sky, and all so very beautiful! How strange it all seemed! Yet how many there are who go through life with imperfect vision of the best things that lie along their path- way. The best of love, truth, sympathy and goodness is unknown to them, just because they will not open their eyes to behold. Let none imagine he per- ceives or understands all of divinity or of divine truth in the world till his eyes have been opened by the truth that points to and makes plain the highest in knowledge and happiness.—Ram's Horn. THE FRECKLE-FACED GIRL. How She Entertained a Visitor While Her “Ma” Was Dressing Up-stairs. “Ma's up-stairs changing her dress,” said the freckle-faced little girl, tying her doll’s bonnet strings and casting her eye about for a tidy large enough to serve as a shaw! for that double-pointed young person. “Oh, your mother needn't dress up for me,” replied the female agent of the missionary society, taking a self-satis- fied view of herself in the mirror. “Run up and tell her to come down just as she is, in her every-day clothes, and not to stand on ceremony.” “Oh, but she hasn't got on her every- day clothes Ma was all dressed up ia her new brown silk dress, ‘cause she expected Miss Dimmond to-day. Mis- Dimmond always comes over here tc show off her nice things,and ma doesn’* mean to get left. When ma saw you coming she said ‘the Dickens!’ and I guessshe was mad about something. Ma said if you saw her new dress she'd have to hear all about the poor heathen, who don't have silk, and you'd ask her for money to buy hymn books to send ‘em. Say, do the nigger ladies use hymn book leaves to do their hair upon to make it frizzy? Ma saysshe guesses that’s all the good the books do ’em, if they ever get any books. I wish my doll was a heathen.’ “Why, you wicked little girl, what do you want of a heathen doll?” inquired the missionary lady, making mental in- ventory of the new things in the parlor to get material for a homily on worldly extravagance. “So folks would send her lots of nice things to wear, and feel sorry to have her going about naked. Then she'd have hair to frizz, and I want a doll with black hair and eyes that roll up like Deacon Sliderback’s when he says amen 0. Sunday. I ain’t a wicked girl neither ‘cause Uncle Dick—you know Uncle Dick, he’s been out west and swears awful and smokes all the house —he says I’m a holy terror and he hopes I'll be an angel pretty soon. Ma’ll be down in a minute, so you needn't take your coat off. She said she'd box my ears if I asked you to. Ma's putting on that old dress she had last year, ’cause she said she didn’t want you to think she was able to give much this time and she needed a new muff worse than the queen of the cannon ball islands needs religion. Uncle Dick says you oughter go to the islands, ‘cause you'd be safer there, and the natives’d be sorry they were such sinners if anybody would send you to’em. Hesays he neverseen a heather hungry enough toeat you, ‘les "twas a blind one, an’ you'd seta blind pagan’s teeth on edge so he’d never hanker after any more mission- ary. Uncle Dick's awful funny and makes pa and ma die laughing some- times. “That's a pretty cloak you've got, ain't it? Do you buy all your good clothes with missionary money? Ma Says you do.” Just then the freckled-face little girl's ma came into the parlor and kissed the missionary lady on the cheek and said she was delighted to see her, and they proceeded to have a real sociable chat. The little girf's ma can’t understand why a person who professes to be so charitable as the missionary lady does should go right over to Mrs. Dimmond’s and say such ill-natured things as she did, and she thinks the missionary is a double-faced gossip.— Boston Globe. Too Much fer Her. First Farmer—How's your Farmer Peart? Second Farmer—Oh, she's complein- in’ some. First Farmer—I thought she'd be under the weather when I see her pitchin’ hay in the field t’other day. Second Farmer—That didn’t hurt her. She walked half a mile after a mew bonnet yesterday, and I cal’late the walk was too much for her.— Judge. wife, FURNITURE, CARPETS, STOVES, Needed in the Furnishing of a House, —ON—- WEEKLY or MONTHLY PAYMENTS | —oo sr — Goods Shipped to Any Part of the Country.
