YOUNG FOLKS. DICK. Dick was the pet of the whole household. From the oldest to the youngest. the family never tired of watching his cunning ways and bright eyes. (fan youiiiiagine what he was? Some one. says A dog, another a bird. 4 r perhaps some who have such cute baby brothers, may think he was a lovely baby boy. But he was neither of these: but a squirrel of the species known as; woo-l or gray squirrel. He was dark-gray, with a bushy tail as long as his body ; and he had such a funny way of curling it over his back. Frank found him one day in the woods, ‘ and after several attempts finally succeeded ‘ in catching him. Frank would follow him up a tree, but the squirrel had the advantage of the boy there, for before he could be caught, he sprang nimbly from one tree to another when thertrees were close together, or else to the ground, and while Frank was descending one tree the squirrel would be' climbing another. Two or three such attempts were made. when Frank, excited by the chase, risked neck and limb, and jumped from the tree to the ground, close on the squirrel who, surprised by the audacity of the movement, was easily cap- tured before he could get away, as they do not run very fast when on the ground. He was about half‘grown. Frank took him home and showed him to the family with much pride. He was ptit into a barrel for safety for a few days until something better could he found, then an old bird-cage was brought into use. While in this he managed to get the door open some way and get out, but as the cage had been put into an out-house that did duty as wood and general store-house, he hid away among some of the things, and after a day or two showed himself, and was coaxed back into the 'age, where he seemed very contented. Frank heard ofa squirrel-house, and at once made up his mind to try and secure it for Dick. He went to the store where it was for sale, and asked the price. The clerk told him one dollar and a half. Think- ing this was too much, he returned home resolved to make the old bird-cage do. But the desire to obtain the houseâ€" which was in reality a very nice one for a squirrelâ€"was very strong, and he went again, and succeeded in purchasing it at even a lower figure than 'as at first asked. The house was made all of tin with a double roof and chimney on top. The door was madcso itcould be securely fastened from the, outside, so thcrc was no danger of mastei‘squirrcl forcing it open. The windows were barred with strips of tin. Inside there was an upper floor, and a flight of tin stairs leading to it ; and when Dick felt inclined he could ascend these, and take a quiet nap, sure that no prying meddler could reach him there. On the outside, attached to one end of the house, was a wheel made of strips of tin. It. was about it foot and a half long and near. ly one foot across. This wheel \‘as closed at one end, and at the other had three holes large enough for the squirrel to go through, to and from his istrange that Dick should‘be asleep on the A STUDY IN INSECI‘ PERBNOLOGY. l lower floor, for he never trusted himself i there, but always went up to the loft for his , nap. But she thought to herself, “ Per- haps he came downâ€"stairs before he got his inap out and was so dozy he dropped to sleep again i” she concluded he had slept long enough, and she would wake him and l make him do some tricks for her. I So she gave the cage 0. little shake, but l Dick did not stir ; then she shook it harder, l but still no signs of waking. ' " Dick 3 Dick 1" she called, “why donit you wake up?" but Dick did not respond by opening those bright eyes ; and even touch- ing him With a stick did not make him move. At this the little girl became alarmed, and ran into the house crying : .r "Grandma I Grandma 1" Do come and see what is the matter with Dick. He won‘t ! wake up 1" l Grandma came out and saw him lying thch stiff and motionless; and the tears lcaine into little Tot‘s eyes when grandma ltold her that Dick was dead, and that he i would never please them again with his l cunning tricks, and they would have to bury him in the ground. Frank looked very sad when he came home, but he felt it would be unmanly to let any one see tears in his eyes [for the loss of a squirrel, but in his heart. he loved his little pet, and mourned him sincerely. “What a Pocket Contained.” The heavens were in their full glory to. night. So Eleanor thought as she stood leaning her soft cheek against the window pane, and watching very intently each little bright point in the bright sky. Her child- isli imagination was becoming creative, for bad she not been pretending she lived in Harland. Ah: and she sighed a very impres- sive little sigh when she told mainnm. “the country up there exactly suited her.” But all thought of the stars were forgot- ten when Eleanor Saw some one in 8. Ion black ulster hurry up the stoop, and hear . papa’s voice in the hall. Mamma. and-daugh- ter had a race and the first prize was award- ed to momma, when the person within that great ulster took her in his arms and ave her the first kiss, while his little daug ter came in a close second. Mr. Johnston had been away on a busi- ness trip, and one of the last things Eleanor had said to him before he started was, “Please bring me something real nice, papa, something I can play with.” So before papa even started to have some supper he told Eleanor he had not forgotten his promise, and that he had her present right with him. Two little arms were around his neck in minute, as he caught her up in his arms, and then two little hands immediately started to search all his pockets. in his ulster had a peculiarly large appear- ance. Eleanor thought it might have two big bags of peanuts in it, so she put one lit- tle hand inside to take some if they were there, but, oh ! my, it didn’t. feel like pea- nms, it was warm and soft; and she gave a. little jump when some small, wet. thing licked her fingers. “\Vhat is it, papa, what is it '5” and her golden curls bobbed up and down with delight. Papa smiled as he lift- ed very carefully from his pocket 3. little baby collie (log and put the round, soft, sleepy little ball into Eleanor’s arms. Never wasliuman baby so tenderly car- housc at pleasure. Dick would come out into this wheel, and begin by climbing up the side. The wheel would turn slowly at first : Dick would keep climbing, and the speed of the wheel increasing until it would .fairly buzz. Then, tired of this he would scamper hack into his home, to see if perchance some stray nut had rolled off in a corner. It was a never-ceasing delight to the children to watch him eat. He seemed fond of most everything, and, I am sorry to say, was almost a glutton, and therein lies the sequel to his sad fate. It was some time before it was discover ed that he was a drinker : but Frank was esscd, and Eleanor proved herself a very thoughtful mother by immediately inquiring whether her dear little puppy had had any supper. said, “He was afraid Mr. Puppy would have to be brought up on a bottle, as he had not quite learned the accomplishment of lap- ping.” Eleanor would not think of going to bed until a bottle had been purchased. Then she drew her little willow rocker up before the wood’fire in her room and rocked to and fro, while she held that warm, soft dog close to her heart and bummed very gently her favorite lullaby, but' the sweet song did not charm puppy, as it should, for he cried and cried, and apparently did not too much of a temperance boy to give him anything but purecold water, of which Dick was very fond. He fed him nuts of all kinds, and it was so amusing to watch him nibble offthe shell of the smaller nuts, and pick out the meat ; larger nuts had to be cracked for him. He was quite fond of water-melon, and would sit up. hold apiece in his fore-paws, and eit all the rcdjuicy part. He liked crab-ap- ples, but did not consider it genteel to eat them without peeling : thishc. proceeded to do by holding the apple in his paws, and nibling oil‘ the skin a little at a time, an dropping it down ; he would dexterously turn the apple around until every bit. of the peeling had been rsmovcd, and then eat the apple. v He was often given the liberty of a room with closeddmis. but unless the door of his own house was closed, he would iti- variably goback into it. Still he did not seem so very much afraid of persons, but would come close up to Frank and take a piece of nut off his knee, as he sat on the floor, but he never permitted any one to handle him. With all the attention Frank bestowed on him, and so many things that suited his taste to eat, it is no wonder he grc.v fat and jolly. In the autumn Frank began to wonder where he could keep his pet in the winter. The house, during the summer. had been kept on a portico, but Something better than that must be devised ; various plans suggested themselves, but none as yet would answer: finally the matter was settled for him ; it came about in this way : It was one bright morning in the latter inrt of Scptcnil‘vci‘. Frank had given Dick his usual morning rations. and with three- year-old Tot by his side had watched him as he sat on his hind feet, with th:.t beauti- ful tail thrown up over his back, and nib- bling thci tits from his cute forc paws : and he thought nothing could be handsoiucr or nicer for a pet than this very same Dick, , with hisbright, snapping eyes and droll \\'i8:\'5. Aiterlus breakfast Dick came out and enjoy being rocked. Eleanor decided it. was because he was so hungry, so she urged nurse to hurry and warm the milk and then mamma urged her little daughter to hurry and get ready forbed, as it was long past her bedtime. A half an hour later mamma came up‘ stairs to give her little daughter her usua good-night kiss, and she stood by the side of the bed for a longtime looking at the pretty picture before her. For Eleanor in her night-dress with its dainty puffed sleeves and her golden curls half over one little flushed check was holding very closely that precious puppy : that furry little individual was not crying now but w'as vigorously re- moving the milk from the bottle which Eleanor held in one hand. He \‘llS not asleep, but hard at work: it» seemed as though he just stopped long enough to look tip at. mamma and blink his sleepy little eyes at her. But mamma did not laugh, she just. lifted puppy, bottle and all, out of bed and removed him to a small box in the play- room. In this shc put a nice fur rug and lthis little innocent puppy curled itself up fcontcntcdly, and went to sleep thinking, no doubt, this warm substitute was its mother.

In the few years last past the science of Phrenology has made wonderful strides. It has been applied to matrimony in the way of aiding you to choose a congenial partner of your bosc~iiiâ€"â€"â€"one whose temper will “com- pat,"as it were, with your own. ,This is why it is so hated and held up to public scorn by the legal profession. Persons plirenologically mated furnish no business for the divorce courts. By it you can select your self, for the benefit of mankind, as the raw material for a doctor or a lawyer or a preacher or a President of the United States. It is now known that your bumps and your temperament indicate what you oughttoeat, drink, breathe and wear. This accounts for the unprincipled opposition of the medical profession. No doctors are feed by those who feed and dress and so forth after the dictates of their own bumps. Very recently it has been discovered that the brute-beasts can be selected for any special use by Plirenology. You can pick out dogs that will bark in the night when your enemy wants to sleep; and mules that will buck ; and horses that will either run away or balk, as you may prefer. By this beneficent science you can select cattle that will horn your enemy, and will break into his garden and convert his cabba es and his turnips and his cauliflowers and is asparaâ€" gus into your milk and beef.

In answer to the question, papa. “ \th. why," he stammcred, " of course this venerable science of Plirenology, un- honored and unsung, has been guiding mother Nature’s processes of evolution in the selection of the fittest to survive ! I The latest ad 'ance, and by far the great- est that Plirenology has made at any single stride, is to be seen in my own astoundin ' discovery that it applies to insects as wel as to beasts and men. Under the microscope you can read, from their cranial develop- ements, the characteristics of flies, gnats, bees, bigots ct cctera. A word of explanation on two points just here. First: As mostinsects are nearly or quite bald-headed their bumps can be appre- ciated by vision alone, without the aid of the fingers. It is well to know this Second : Subject to correction I think it is scientific to classify bigots as insects. All the bigots Judging by my own observation no sect is without them. This new branch of the scienceâ€"a branch whichI have ventured to call Insect Phrcn- ologyâ€"finds its best illustration in the dear familiar housefly. I select a single chart out of man y written after observations made through a microscope of two hundred diamâ€" eters. The extracts from the chart will be followed by a nar 'ation of some remarkable incidents in the career of the fly referred to. The whole will establish the claim of Insect Plirenology to recognition among the noble sisterhood of sciences. V . . _, 1 JW Some enterprismg minds will, doubtless, wish to verify and enlarge the discovery I have had the honor to make. For their guidance 1 will say, in passing, that the restlessness of the fly, while under examin- ation, perplexed me greatly, for a time. Imagine me just ready to estimate the re- lative prominence of a set of bumbs, prepara- tory to entering the result on the chart. At that moment, of all others, the fly would begin to scratch his ear ! or to smooth down a. wing with one of his legs ! or would move to a new place in the field of the microscope â€"â€"and present his posterior parts to the line of vision 1 Sometimes he would fly away and mix up with other flies, and persist in looking so much like them that I could not be sure of recapturing the subject of my unfinished study. At lastâ€"as if by in- spirationâ€"Ithouglit of some cocaine loz- enges I had. I laid one on the table. In a little time it was covered with flies, in- tent on packing their trunks with sweetened paralysis. I soon had all the quiet sub- jects I wanted, and was enabled to pursue my investigations at leisure. In quoting from the chart referred to above I shall confine myself to the organs which were remarkable either for their great size, or because they were abnormally small. I find that I marked that fly as follows:~viz., vcncration, l ; firmness, (i; cuinbfitiveilcss, 7 ; inliabitivcncss, 9. The lights! marking of this latter organ on any former chartâ€"â€"wlictlicr of man, beast or insect, was 7. The day after writing the chart I was lecturing to my cliss. Lct me say, in ex- planation, that I conduct a school of phrcuology. I turn out many bright young men who devote themselves to lecturing on the noble science for a silver collection at the door. They also write up charts of the human head for the small sum of one dollar eachâ€"when they cannot get two dollars. It was a muggy afternoon in September, one of those heavy hot times when all liv- ing things get into a state of scmi-hypnotism. As I labored on in thcdiscourse my sluggish blood was qiiickeued to a livelier pulse by the sight of a fly that aliahtcd on the manu- script. lkncw him, by its bumps, as my subject of the day before. That phenomen- al organ of inhabitivencss could not be mis- taken. Of course I could not have distin- guished him from other flies by the naked eye, I use a large round reading-glass with ahandletoit. “'hcn he marched into the field of the glass Ii‘ccogiiiztcd hiin instantly. As in many another sad case that fly was to become the victim of the master-propen- sities of his nature. Ihit in this instance there was compensation. He became his. toric in connection with the discovery and corroboration of a great science. I had reached a part of the lecture with which I was so familiar that I could look away from the manuscript. The fire of cltxpience was kindling towards a brilliant climax when the fly rose from the paper and settled on my upper lipâ€"at a point south- west bv south from my left nostril. He was no sooner settled than he began to ex 'avatc with a view to )utting tip a four-storey brown-stone residence. His action disturbed me not a little. It was impossible to break off the lecture to execute a deed of the building-lot he had selected.
