I picked up an apple and held it veut toward him, saying as I did so: “Won't you have an apple?’ “He took it eagerly, saying as he did so: “‘Thank ye, sir; I’ve a little feller at home who'll be tickled to death to git it. I most always find something or other in the ash barrels to carry home to ’im at night, but it ain’t often I gil anything equal to this big apple. I tell ye the little feller’s eyes will shine when he see it.’ “I don’t know how many times that day my thoughts were of that big, rough-handed fellow, with that apple put away so carefully in his pocket for that ‘little feller.’ “When evening came I thought of the ‘little feller’ who was on the look- out for the big, dust-covered father, with the cilioused and soiled hands, but with the tre heart and the kindly word that made aim a king in the eyes | of that ‘little feller.’ “2t must have been a very poor and humble home to which the man went at the close of his wesry day, but then there was the ‘little ieile B nee to make beautiful even the bare walls and floors and to bring the love light to his fathe:’s eyes and joy to his jather’s heart. “These ‘little fellers’ glorify and beautify many a home in which poverty abides. But human affections sweetly and patiently endure foil and rags and poverty when there is a ‘lit- tie feller’ to meet and greet the father when the long day is done.” HIS GRANDMOTHER’S GIFT. The Colonel Cooled Off When He Knew mother W A good story comes from Berlin. At a ball given there not very long ago a pompous colonel ran up against a young officer evidently fresh from the S ose only decoration was a large medailion set in brilliants. “I say, lieutenant, what the dickena is that concern you have on?” svern- fully asked the elk warrior. “It’s an order, cc!onel,” answered the oung man modestly. “An order?

I know of ne sech,” retorted the colonel jealously ; “An English order, colonel,” mildly returned the lieutenant. “And who in the world gave it te you?” interrozated the other, with hiz nose in the ai y “My graudmoth said the young man with a twink’e blue eyes.

It was Prince Albert of Schles- wig-Holstein. The colonei got very red in the face and wi rew, with a pro- found bow of apology, to take a back seat for the rest of the evening. Prince Albert has been making merry over the incident ever since, and even grand- mamma herself had a 2 laugh whea she was tol of it. A Wonderfal Clock. Undoubtedly one of the most wonder- ful clock in the world was that origi- nally manufactured for the late Duke Charles of Brunswick, and which is now being exhibited in St. Petersburg. There are no fewer than ninety-five faces to this colossal time piece. It indi- cates simultaneously the time of day at thirty different spots on the surface of the earth, besides the movement of the earth around the sun, the phases of the moon, the signs of the zodiac, the passage over the meridian of more than fifty stars of the northern hemi- sphere, and the date, according tu the Gregorian, Greek, Mussulman, and Be- brew calendars. At his death, Prince Charles bequeathed the clock to the Swiss confederation. So complicated re the works that it took two years to ait them together after the clock had been sent in detached pieces Switzerland to Russia. trom The Arctic Fox, A curious thing is told about the Arctic fox—that be imitates the cries of the birds cn wh entices them within reach. he is not difficvit to capture as com- pared with other varieties.

Hor- ace Porter says of the entrance of Grant’s army into the Wilderness: After the officers at headquarters had obtained what sleep they could get, they arose about daylight, feeling that | in all probability they would witness before night either a fight or a foot race—a fight if the armies encountered each other, a foot race to secure good positions if the armies remained apart. Gen. Meade had started south at dawn, moving along the Germania road. Gen. Grant intended to remain in his present camp till Burnside ar- rived, in order to give him some di- | rections in person regarding his move- | ments. The general sat down to the breakfast table after nearly all the staff officers had finished their morn- ing meal. While he was slowly sip- ping his coffee a young newspaper re- porter, whose appetite, combined with his: spirit of enterprise, had gained a substantial victory over his modesty, slipped up to the table, took a seat at the farther end, and remarked: “Well, I wouldn’t mind taking a cup of some- thing warm myself, if there’s no ob- | jection.” Thereupon seizing a coffee pot he poured out a full ration of that soothing beverage, and, after helping himself to some of the other dishes, proceeded to eat breakfast with an ap- petite which had evidently been stimu- ; lated by long hours of fasting. The | general paid no more attention to this occurrence than he would have paid to the flight of a bird across his path. He scarcely looked at the intruder, did not utter a word at the time, and made no mention of it afterward. It was a | fair example of the imperturbability of his nature as to trivial matters tak- ing place about him. The following is an incident of the next morning: The members of the headquarters mess soon after assembled to partake of a hasty breakfast. The general made rather a singular meal preparatory to so exhausting a day as that which was to follow. He took a cucumber, sliced it, poured some vinegar over it, and partook of nothing else except a cup of strong coffee. The first thing he did after rising from the table was to call for a fresh supply of cigars. His col- ored servant “Bill” brought him two dozen. After lighting one of them, he filled his pockets with the rest. He then went over to the knoll, and began to walk back and forth slowly upon the | cleared portion of the ridge.

The short, loose black coat is trying valiantly to -make its appear- ance, but mosi of the tailor suits still adhere to the close, tight styles, the skirts growing narrower, and the coats being cut in the style of a man’s morn- ing coat. For street and out-of-door sport the Norfolk jacket is being seen frequently, but this is a trying fash- ion, A gown was recently seen at a Scotch country house, which combined the rare attractions of a tea gown and a dinner gow. It was made of black mousseline de soie, striped with nar- row lines of fine jet, and falling from a square yoke of fine lace, with tight sleeves of the same, surmounted by double frills of kilt-plaited mousseline. This was always worn with the hair arranged in the latest French fashion, which consists of a waved fringe in front and waved hair at the back of the neck, with a smal! tight knob on the extreme top of the head, Another attractive evening dress seen at the ; Same country house had a moire silk skirt, shot with green and blue, com- pleted with a pale green chiffon bodice high in the neck and formed entirely of tucks running crosswise. This has a yoke hanging in points to the waist of cream-color lace, studded with heads and jewels matching the three colors of the skirt. Jules Verne. Except when he brings out one of his marvelous books we hear little of M. Jules Verne, but the fact is that he is leading a very quiet life av Amiens. Although 68 years of age and wearing the appearance of a retired general, he is full of energy and as hard working as of yore. He is now busy in the exe- eution of his plan for publishing a se- | ries of stories bearing on different countries. Before beginning a partic- ular work M. Jules Verne reads up a number of geographical, historical and other hooks treating of that part of the world, and as he goes on the plot | gradually germinates in his mind. He | is indeed an active and laborious toiler. He rises regularly at 4 o’clock in the morning, and writes steadily until noon. He retires to rest at 9, except on two evenings in the week, when he | accompanies his wife to the Grand theater, dining before at a restaurant opposite the building. This is his great treat and he is fond of remarking that on these occasions he and his wife enjoy themselves just as if they were a young couple on their honeymoon. As a matter of fact, M. and Mme. Jules Verne have not been near Paris for the last eight years and find that their life at Amiens suits them perfectly.—Paris Correspondence Iondon Telegraph. Kesented the Policeman's Presence.

Young horses can be led up to 2 sack Tying on the ground and induced to pass it by letting them smell it and find out that it really is a sack, and not the Protean tking, whatever it may be, which illusion conjures up for them. “Once the writer saw a very quick and pretty instance of experiment by touch made by a frightened pony. It was being driven as a leader in a pony tandem, and stopped short in front of where the rails of a steam tramway crossed the road the road. It first smelled the near rail, and then quickly gave it two taps with its hoof. After this is was satisfied and crossed the line. On the other hand, a donkey al- ways tries to jump the shadows of tree trunks on the road, though a similar experience of touch would have shown were as unreal as the tram rail was unsubstantial. Lastly, no horse which has once knocked its head against the top of a stable doorway seems quite able to get rid of the illusion that there sits up in the top of all doorways an invisible something which will hit again next time he goes through. Hence, the trou- blesome and sometimes incurable hab- it of horses “jibbing” when taken out of the stable. This is an obvious instance of the disadvantage at which most animals stand in regard to means of physical experiments. The horse, for instance, needs feel only the lintel to find out that it is fixed and does not move, and is not alive and waiting to hit him. But except his lips, which are sensi- | tive, he has no member with which he can make the experiment. Except the elephaut and the monkey, most of the “higher” animals suffer from this lack of the means of experiment. The won- der is, not that they suffer from illu- sions, but that they make so few mis- takes.—London Spectator. Over-Decorated Rooms. Two rooms lately seen have im- pressed upon me most forcibly the ne- cessity of having some plain surface in every room as a rest for the eye, and consequently the mind. One of these rooms was lauded as a thing of beauty because it existed in the house of a millionaire, and much money had been expended upon it. The other room was in the house of a seamstress, who had expended her hard-earned dollars in furnishing a little parlor with which she was much delighted. Both rooms were ugly and tiresome because of the figured surfaces that covered floor, window and furniture, and the hanging. The patterns were large and showy in the Eastern rug, the rich walls were covered with a figured silk, and the chairs had velvet roses growing in a satin background In a more satisfactory room done by a woman decorator, I find the floor, which has a plain hardwood border, covered by a large rug with a plain center and a figured border. A table cover that is also plain with the ex- ception of a scroll border is of a lus- trous short napped velvet. The walls are covered with painted tapestries, but the windows and doors that divide them here and there have plain hang- ings. The ceiling of the room is cross- ed by pan of wood in a dull and a bright finish—New York Post Beaten Goid. One dollar’s worth of ordinary com- mercial gold-leaf, it is said, is suffi- cient to cover an area of nine hun- dred square inches. In other words, that nine hundred square inches of gold have been pounded cr beaten out of a lump of the yellow metal which weighed no more than a gold dollar. This gold-leaf, thin as it is, is thick when compared with that which is now being made by a recently discovered process. By this process the yellow metal is depcsited With electricity in a bath upon a Lighly polished sheet of copper. In this manner a film only one-four-millionth of an inch in thick- ness may be produced. When mounted on glass, this new kind of gold-leaf is perfectly transparent. Just One Gloat. Although golf and the bicycle are, in the main, getting on excellently to- gether, there is still a disposition among a certain class of wheelmen to scoff at the newer sport, as too aris- tocratic and exclusive. Retribution of a peculiarly abrupt and distressing kind came down upon one of these rid- ers the other day and the golfer who played the other part in the scene was uncharitabie enough to enjoy the sit- uation thorougaly. He was walking briskly along a suburban road toward the links, carrying a good-sized bag full of clubs, when he was overtaken by a tandem bicycle with only one rider. This person, from his perch on the rear seat, immediately hailed the golf player with sarcastic famil- jarity. “Aw-—goin’ to play golf, are you? ‘That’s nice,” he began, turning around as he passed ts observe how his victim took the greeting. The curiosity was fatal in its cffects. Just at that mo- ment the front wheel of the tandem yan against a big, round stone; there was a desperate lurch to one side, and the facetious rider shot forward into the road, with the machine on top of Lim. e “The golfer said never a word, but stood and gazed, with undisguised pleasure, at the wreck. And nobody who saw the occurrence could grudge kim the comic opera satisfaction of “just one gloat” over his fallen enemy. --New York Tribune. Just His Size.
