It haa not' been a vision of financial embarrassment alone; he had ooen himself walking on the uppers of dirgraoe over the rooky road of despair.

He was the tramp all over." fn spite of himself, he played the part to tho life and submitted to ejection with only the ordinary protestations of injured ln ooence which are always ridiculous. ' He stood on the edge of the sidewalk and endeavored to collect his senses. - It was time to stop making mistakes -and be knew It Evidently he must j have money, and the only way to get i ' that was speedy enough to satisfy the demands of bis impatience was by wire. ' He found a telegraph office and wrote out a modest request that bis father In Kansas City should send five hundred . dollars at the rate of one hundred and " ninety thousand miles a second or faster If the electricity could be hurried. - It was a branch telegraph office and a young mAn with a shrewd faoe was la charge. "Send this collect" said Lawrenoe, laying down his message. . . "What do yon take me fort" inquired the young man, blandly. ' - Lawrenoe - Moognlsed that some ex planation was necessary, so he briefly outlined tbe case. ' The young ma a looked interested, and Lawrenoe was en eouraged. He entered more into detail. And tbe young man put en a sweet and trustful smile.- ' Lawrence reached the point in bis narrative where the porter loomed Into prominence, And be hesi tated, feeling the humiliation of bis de feat - "And then and then, said he, blush ing. - , "And then," said the young man, sol emnly, "yow put tbe cork back Into the bottle and the green snakes disappeared.

"Not at all," replied the young man; "but yoall have to try this story at tbe tnaia office on Broadway. Itjs too ex etting for my nerves." Front this position the manager re fused' to recede, and Lawremoo was obliged to contest himself with direc tions bow to find the maiaoSce. It was not a very long walk, but shame at bis garments made It path of torture. It was. not plain sailing after he got there, either, for it took half aa hour of painful argument to coax the mrsssge on to the wire. The answer was slow ta coming. 7!e long evening twilight waa well ad vanced before he was notlled that Kan sas aty bad beea beard from. This was the reply: "Ha re wlredsioaey to New Hivm- .

Carnot, the late president of the French republic, was a carpenter by trade. It is true that he did not, in his mature years, practice the trade of a carpenter, but in his youth he had been taught tbat hand icraft, and 00 doubt might have exercised it If it bad been necessary. The family of Sadl Carnot's mother came from 'the little town of Chaoa nols, in tbe Cbarente, a department of western Franoe. Though they were people of means, they believed in Jean Jacques .Rousseau's doctrine that ' every child should be taught a handicraft, In order tbat, In case of adversity, he may make bis way In the world, and not be a burden upon anyone. - In pursuance of their toother's belief in this principle, young Sadi Carnot and his brother were put at work every summer, when they went to Cbabanals, to learn tbe trade of carpentering and joining. It was on mere play, for they were put in the midst of working carpenters, aud their helpers, on actual "jobs," and had to do their share of . the work. Mme. Carnot not only insisted upon this but gave tbe boys no pref erence over the other workers, while they were witb them In the matter of food. They had to eat at the same table and partake of the same plain fare. . y In this way both boys became at last practical carpenters. At tbe same time they learned to eater Into the feelings of tbe laboring people, and to appreciate their situation; and there Is excellent reason to be lieve tbat tbe liberal opinions of tbe late president rested in .large port on bis practical acquaintance witb the working people. . It Is worth noting ' tbat these working vacations of young Sadl Carnot were a most agreeable time to bim. He remembered tbe days spent at Cbabanals with feelings of delight, and always went there for rest when occasion offered. ,HiA mother, who is still living, looked forward witb jreat pleasure to the expiration of her son's seven years of presidential service, when she expected to take bim to Cbabav oais, as if be were a boy again, and I give bim a "good rest" there. It Is quite possible that. If tbe assassin's band bad spared him, be might have found at the carpenter's bench a de lightful relief from the cares of state. Youth's Companion. , His Face H.s Fortune. - '"Long before' tbe war John Rey nolds was a great man in Illinois," said Col. 17. U. Morrison. "As far back as 1813 be was a justice of the supreme court and waa governor Xroca 1 73 folL JI5 cut sCjure iu the Black Caw It wur, aud IltUir curoe to congress. He war a power ful man before a jury, and hia facial expression, which certainly did him great service la wiooing his cases, was something wonderful. It would have made the fortune of any actor. Hia sneer was a thing to be dreaded. "Once on an occasion at which I chanced to be a spectator, though only a lad, Reynolds was pitted In a lawsuit against Lyman Trumbull. It was a contest of giants, Trumbull being, as everybody knows, a man of the keenest Intellect and a lawyer of the highest rank. He saw that Reynolds was " working the jury ia his usual way, and with great effect. In answering him Trumbull fairly opponent at a climax of his speech, Trumbull saidr " 'I've answered all ; your legal points, have answered every argu ment that you have brought for ward, but tbe devil himself couldn't answer your looks!'" Washington Post. ( ... Rebuked for His Levity. Rev. George Madder, rector of 4 Ballybrood, an eld bachelor, lived with a maiden sister, an elderly lady, solemn and stately,' whom be held in great awe. ' She was very fond of : flowers. Whnn arranging some one i morning in the drawing room she found a curious blossom which she had never seen before. Just ad she had discovered it, bor gardeuer ' passed tbe window, which was open. "Come in, James," she called to him; r "I want to show you one of tho most curious things you ever saw." James accordingly came in. Miss Madder sat down, not perceiving ' that the bottom of the chair had been lifted out. Down she went through the frame, nearly sitting on , tbe floor. James went into fits of laughter, and said: "Well, ina'am, sure enough, it is one of the most 1 curtenrrthings I ever seen In my , life." ! 'Stop, James," said she; ''con duct yourself and lift me out." "Oh, begorrab, ma'am, I can't stop," said ' he; ''it's so curious; it bates all I eversoen." It was - some time be fore she could make him understand that her performance was not what he had beon called in to see; and, when he had helped her up, he was dismissed witb a strong rebuke for his levity. Argonaut. I A PET SKA GUlt. Twenty Three Years on Brenton j Reef Lightship. The seagull Dick, christened more than a score of years ago,' returned recently to tho Bren ton's .reef lightship. Tbe hardy satlorman in charge of the lightship hardly ex pected tbe bird, for when ho left the boat lost spring he was thought to be pretty well used up. 'His return finds him -stronger than when he left, and though be is believed to be twenty-eight or thirty years old, Dick appears to be good for at least five years more, if his feathers should remain with bim. This gull, according to Capt. Charles Marsh, the oldest living ex-captain of tbe lightship, came there twenty-tbree years ago this month,, and was easily tamed. Be remained all win- . ter, and the men petted and fed him. : One morning early in March he flew away. His departure was re- gretted, as he had displayed much intelligence, but be was soon forgot ten. One day early ia tbe next Oc tober a gull came aboard the ship in a most matter-of-fact way and it proved to be Dtck. So he bos been going each spring and returning each fall witb tbegreatcst regularity. He keeps woll aft and may generally be seen on a perch which the men -bare arranged jus( above the rail. The gull is cosily fondled by tbe men whom be bos known tbe year be fore, but anyone who has joined the crew during his absence has to show Dick great attention before he can win his regard. Thegull flies about the ship, but never to tbe land, which Is less than a mile away, and be never lights except on some part of tbe vcsscL N. Y. Dispatch. Traveling Mountains. Changes In the topography of the country. may occur from causes but little appreciated by casual ob servers. Watercourses are stopped, lakes and bayous are formed and whole counties mar be submerged by the movlog of Immense bodies of load that gradually slide down into waterways and atop their outflow. An instance of Ibis sort ia found at the cascades of tbe Columbia river. A mountain of basalt more than eight miles long and two thousand feet bi'h Is slowly sliding into tbe river, and, unless it meets with some natural obstacle, will In time fill tbe riverbed and Jon a a dam by which ao Immense body of water wilt be held back in a great lake. Civil engineers and scientists are wondering bow tbe channel la to be kept open, and, as it will be many years before any encroachment in terfering' witb navigation occurs, there is ample room for study and conjecture. Tbe most plausible reason given for this downward slid ing of mountains Is that there may be a substratum of soft sandstone or cUy. This bftQntl Dually beicg dls-. solved and washed strong current, and gradual settling of the mass above; or the tremendous ' weight of the mountain may crush and grind tha rock, acting In precisely tho noma manner as traveling glaciers.-- CHINESE SUPERSTITION. Strang Notion That PreveJla Generally In tlie East. The Sitting of buddbtst rrtsst tar HIS Picture Beatorlne His Soul" Ef, ; ' fet or Tbla Wonderful 11 Ir akis by the Artist. Crowds of people assembled, says ajsriter I n the Fortnightly Review, as we arrived at Ihelnnrjust before sunset, aud among others I spotted tbe fine head of ait old Buddhist priest. After a long confabulation and a few strings of cash which passed from my pocket into bis hands, I was able to Induce him to sit for his picture, and I dashed off a sketch In oils before be had time to change bis mind. ' Unfortunately the large crowd that hid gathered round, especially the women folks, seemed to scold him and talk angrily at him . for his silliness in sitting, owing to tho strange notion that prevails In China, ond, in fact, near? ly all over the east, tbat if an image is reproduced, a soul has to be given to it, and tbat the person portrayed has to be the supplier of It at his own expense. ine,, venereum iu Buddhist priest,, who was nursing his "cash", on his lap while being Immortalized on a wooden panel, and had a curious twinkle in his eye, as if he knew better, resisted brave ly for some time, and sat like A statue, but Anally hod to give In. "You will die," cried an old woman at him: "I saw your soul corning out of you and go into the picture. I did, really, I saw it with my own ' eyes!" " "So did I," cried a hundred other voices In a chorus. , By the time the priest had got up they had half convinced him tbat at least half his soul had really gone out of him; but bad the soul gone or not, be would go and take the cash for safe keeping to bis home first, and complain and ask for the restitu tion of his lost property afterward. n was a sensible man. So was I, and knowing what was coming, the moment he had gone I went Into the room and Docked tho Bketcn safely, then I took another clean panel and smeared it over with the scrapings of mv oalette to show him Instead, in case he would come back and wish the picture destroyed. Twenty mm utes had not elapsed when he was, back strain, of course without the Vash." holdinir bis stomach and comolalniuirof internal agonies. "I am going to die," be cried, the moment he saw me; "you nave taken away half my soul!" "Certainly I have," said I sternly. "You did not expect me. to give you all that 'cash' for less than half your soul, did you?" "Oh, no! but I wish it back, as feel so bad now without it" "All right," said 1, "1 shall go in ' the room and destroy the image did of you; will you then be satls- i UCUI "Yes. Here the other panel smeared with patette scrapings was pro duced, after making pretense at de stroying it witb a knife, and never in my life have I seen an expression of relief to equal tbat of the priest He bad not felt half his soul so much going out of him, but be certainly bad felt it coming back again. He could swear by it He was now per fectly well again! Thia wonderful cure gave us all a very busy evening. All the villagers who had complaints of any sort came to us to be restored to health, A leper who bad lost all his fingers wished me to make them grow again; and a pitiful caso of a poor child, only a few months old, was brought up, whose mother, while busy stirring boiling water in a big caul dron, bad dropped the child lo by mistake, Ue was so badly scalded that I am afraid, though I tried to relieve bis pain, tbe poor child can not have lived more than a few hours. Birch Rods for Students.' I am glad to have received from ao Oxford man a cordial indorsement of my suggestion for tbe use of tbe birch in the university on tbe per sons of undergraduates given to "ragginj and similar follies.' I learn from this correspondent tbat corporal punishment was one of the wise institutions founded at Oxford by Alfred the Great tbe Solomon of our royal line ond I am favorably Impressed by tbe suggestion which my correspondent goes on to make, that tbe college bursars, having few or no useful functions to perform, should be armed with rods and trans formed into, college bircbers. . No doubt some sentimentalists will pro test against tbe birch as a humilia tion to the university "man."
