We never could understand why V. llillllld, with nil his college educa tion, never could find profit able occu pation; hut it is certain that he never did.

When father died it became a seri ilrt problem how wo hhould inaki' a living. a could not e intitule to oc- cupy the parsonage, of course, l'oor ns the living was, there wore many ready and eager to obtain it. Still, it had seemed like ours, and wo never realized how absolutely destitute nud homeless we were' until called upon to Mirreii ler it. Wo had been painting and decorating u little for the leco rative Art Association, or "Woman's Exchange," as some people call h. Tho remuneration we r.c ived was very trilling. After leaving tho pin nonage wo rented a couple of rooms fit the extreme north end of the town, near the beach, and there we began to piint small studies of landscape nnd iiinrimes, Phoebe sometimes in dulging in animal painting, for which the had a passion, but w hich appeared to us both like dissipation, because no one could bo induced to buy our pict ures. Tho landscape aud sea bits we jdaoed in tho book stores for sale to the summer visitors at, prices varying from S-.o(l to s 1 When wo received Sid, which was very rarely indeed, wo felt that we were on tho high road to -wealth.

That was the first daring su.," gcMtioii. It wio long before wo could gather coin-ago suflieionl to carry it into execution. Finally we forwarded six pictured to Mr. Sidney Herbert, iicfonipiiiiiod by a Ion letter, telling him of the death of dear father and mother, and t ho sad futo of poor F,l- llllllld. Yo l-eijuestid llilll to sell tllO pictures for us, if possible, at the best price attainable, tilling him at the same time the poor prices we received at home, mid our uiod. st c.iulidene. that we on ;ht to renli.e Hoinelhing more for our con ciciCious work. It was a monli before we received any reply, and wo had almost given up all hope uf ever hearing from Sid ney Herbert. "Why should an acade mician call' to interest hililielf in the fate of tno poor women?" we said again and again ; when one iil'tertiooii wo rn'i ived a letter bearing the Now York poslin irk, which for ;i long tune we had not the courage to open. Then l'heobe, with trembling hand, ex tracted the letter from t ho envelope, mid, on opening it, a check fell to the ground, folded.

A French paper tells of a man who ought to bo sot down as tin; meanest man of his time. His name is liipi nenn, mid ho is the happy father of three children. His chief claim to ineatin ss lies in the fact tiiat h h is lately discovered a plan to re.Inc his weekly expenditure. F.very morning, w hen sitting dow n at table, he makes the following prop.isil: "Those who will go without breakfast shall have twopence." "Mo ino!" i xelaim Un youngsters ia chorus. Uipineau gives them the money mid suppresses tho breakfast. In the afternoon when the children were anxiously expecting their first meal, Ibipiiieau calls out, "Those who want their dinner must give twopence;" aud they all pay back what they received in the morn ing for going without their breakfast, nnd in that way llipiioau saves a inenl a day. Harper's liouud Table. F.xeitiiig Scene at a Funeral. An exciting story of us cue at a funeral nt the Mi. Mnitah lliptist church, on Hull Skin Creek, near Louisville, Kv., is traveling the coun try.

That tun ; niliei nt specimen of t ho sea lion who for forty veins has been one of tho at traeiiiuis at th" Cliff House, limited in with tho tide recently sorely wounded, and lay his groat, bulk dow ii on tin; soft sand in the shallow water, and calmly awaited the end. As the tide ebbed away ho raised himself with great effort, turned his eves toiMird his companions on the rocks, and bellowed pitifully as if ex pressing his intense sorrow. His cry was answered by a chorus of roars such as hud never been h-'iird before on the seal rocks. Then ho turned upon his fi le, prepared for his fate. The workmen at tin; new CiilV House, w hich is in the course of countritcti in, were attracted to the unusual scene, and W. ( !. I i i 1 1 1 1 nud L.

Hi turned his groat eyes upon thoiu, at true el by tho sympathy which tle-y expressed. Making one feeble elVort to raise his Ili ad, he uttered a inoiii and died without a struggle. The men were deeply n fleeted by the scene and stood in siluu'o for several minutes. 'J'lieu they prepared for his removal to the shore, a task that was by no moans an easy one. The great fellow weighed -I.H'.lt) pounds, and was over fifteen feet long and eight foot nine inches around the body. Tin; peculiar marks of ago a long, shaggy mane and a foretop of h-iir some live inches in length proved to loose who knew hilu well tliii,'. the dead sea lirtu was really "Hui Huller." 'J'here had been war on the seal looks nud "lieu Hutler" had got the worst of several hard battles. His wounds wore fresh but not deep. It required twelve men and four horses to remove the body. They had all they could do to convey the charge to the museum. Tho work occupied in nrly the whole day.

Several mouths ago the H laid of Inspection and Survey of the Navy I )ypartineiit was directed to make an investigation with a view of obtaining some practicable substitute for woo l in lilting na.il vessels. The desire for a substitute w .s the fact that n lighter material was wanted if possi ble, one th it would not take so lunch space on the vessel, and, more than anything e!-e, a In itiTial that would n t splinter. It wa nis i desirable to have a non-oombiistible substance. The buird has ma le a report to the Secretary of the N-ivy, and smii" of its reoo in me tula t Ions have boon adopt -e l by him. and it is probable that some of th" new ships will bu lilted with the new material ns it substitute for wood. One of the best materials which h is been found by the board is a wood substitute coin lo-ied of waste cork, ni nny cork. This is subjected to lll'l degrees of lie it, and it is tli-'ii pressed i ito blocks ol any reijuiied si.o. It an bo sawed into thin strips, or handled very mn. -h as wood is handled. Cork ha.s a gum which great h vit melts and glues it particles together in a compact miss. After being pressed in sticks to ,'eth"" as tightly us if it had grown that way. The cork boards may bu1 mid; heavy or light, as wan' 1. S mi.' of the lighter kinds are used in th" walls of refrigerators. It is n non-eondiielor, and can scarce ly be mad.' to hum. This material is Used in the place of w ml in (loriunu vessels. C.imiiianler Hradford, who ma le the search and examination of this pnrii.'iil ir substitute, found that the (l.rmitii were using it under a patent taken mi- by John Smith of Now York, mi I that companies iu the United States h id obtained riguts for its mauuf ictiire here.
