We remember one day last summer, during the long vacation, when the Hawkeye published a news item stating thataboy named Bilderback had fal- len from the seat of a reaping machine, and got cut to pieces, a patient, weary looking, and. rather handsome young lady called at the oflioe, and appeared to be very anxious to have that item verified. And when we gave her all possible as- surance that everything appearing in that great and good paper, the Hawk- eye, was necessarily true, she drew a deep sigh of relief, and said she felt actually thankful she Wouldn‘t have that boy to demoralize the school the next term. And then she smiled swcetly, and thanked us for our assuring words}, and went away. Imagine her dismay, then, about the third or fourth day of the tall term. when a terrific cheering in the yard, about ten minutes before school time, drew her to the window, whence looking down, she saw every last solitary lingerâ€" ing boy in that school district dancing and yelling about Master Bilderback, who was dancing higher and yelling louder than any other boy in the caucus. Her heart sank within her; but she braced up and went down stairs to quiet the bedlam. and in five minutes learned the dreadful truth. Master Bilderbeck had met with a reaping-machine acci- dent, but the paptrs had reported it in- correctly. He had climbed into the seat the moment his uncle, on whose farm he was spending the vacation, got down. He prodded one of the horses with a pin in the end of a stick. and made the team run away. The terrified animals ran the machine over twenty stunxps,and mashed it to pieces; one of the horses ran against .s hedge-stake and was killed, and the other jumped off a bridge and broke a leg; Master Bilderbacx’s uncle. chasing after the flying team, had dashed through a hornets’ nest, and the sociable little ' insects came out and sat down on him to talk it over, until his head was swelled as big as a nail-keg, and he couldn’t open his eyes for a week; a farm-hand who tried to stop the horses by rushing out in trout of than, was hit by the 1 tongue of the reaper and knocked into the middle- of an Osage orange hedge, where he stuck for three hours. Ani master .i‘Silderback. the author of all Lm' calamity, was thrown from his seam at the first stump, and fell on a shock of gmin, and wasn’t jarred or bruised or scratched a particle. And , that night, whvn his aunt hands-d his blinued unclc rue hz’ultsr-strap. and held Master Bilder- back in from of him to receive marital (antistation, that gracelesa young wreteh seized hl-z aunt around the neck after the first blow, and wheeling her into his place, held her there, drowning her piercing explanations and pleadimzs in his own tumultous but deceitful howl- lugs and roaring-s, until her back lame-M like a. war map, and the exhauhzul uncle laid down the strap with il‘u‘; renurk that he “guessed that woull mach him something.” And so the tow. ner, who am. 4.1V?

Linked With hyphens. . We are used to feel, to put it crudely, that folks who have health and money ought to be happy. And so they should. A sufficient income promotes comfort. and that contributes to cheerfulness of spirit, and to have health of course means to feel well, and that is a long step toward feeling good. But how far do we have to look to find persons with health to squander and more money than they know how to spend making strenuous efforts to attain happiness and merely achieving impaired health? If you have health and-money you can usually buy pleasure, but enjoyment is a different article. and even when you have got enjoyment happiness may still elude .you. ' Pleasure pails and sometimes demoralizes; enjoyment eas- ily yields to weariness. but you don’t get tired of being happy, and you may be ever so tired and be happy still. Happiness is a state of satisfaction. One reason why it is so elusive may be because we human creatures are a complication of body. mind and spirit and require for our complete satisfac- tion a particularly nice adjustment of blessings and of conduct. If: we in- dulge the body too much the other two : partners become mutinous; if we over- cultivate the mind the body may break down, and if we bestow all our atten- tion on mind and body, the spirit. ig- nored, takes a sure vengeance on us for our neglect. It is so difficult so to measure and direct our efforts as to appease all the demands of our tripli- cate natures that the simpler way is to regard happiness as a byproduct. give over all direct attempts to acquire a constant supply of it and simply ac- cept however much of it .may come while we go about our business with such intelligence as we can. We can usually keep our bodies in fair repair if we are not too lazy or too self indul- gent. If we have to earn our livings our minds and bodies, too, find occupa- tion that is usually wholesome, and the discipline of work done, as it usual- ly is. for others as well as for our- selves. helps to satisfy the exactions of the spirit. Pronounced the Kent Interesting Part at a Newspaper. An inveterate newspaper reader was overheard to say the other day. says the Chicago Tribune. after an hour’s , strict attention to the news: “The most entertaining part of a big daily is the ‘Lost and l"0und' column. Some peo- . pie look at the sporting news. others ' for the deaths and marriages. but lost attieies'and other rewards are my par- . tit-u: 2r fancy. If you study these ‘losts’ 4: you wi‘.l have a pretty fair idea of your ‘; fellow creatures’ common sense and 1 their ability to hold on to what belongs Z to them. Sooner or later the horseshoe 1 pin runs mt with the hat pin. and the '1 cluster diamond ring disappears with l the pearl crescent. A pdpular eiope- f ment is in the purse with jewelry. but . the lightsome fashion with which'pock- i etbooks lose themselves in this sinful 1 world shows how careless mortals be i and that nobody ever learns anythingr ’, by another’s dear experience. . ; “'l‘he rewards offered for missing 1 ' treasures indicate their value to the los- ; er. Some are quite pathetically large. ; others recklessly so. but a savin:.r clanse ‘ is the laconic ‘No questions asked.‘ and then i feel the case is truly desperate and the watch chain and locket must i have departed under peculiar circum~ stances. ‘The lady who was seen to " { pick up.‘ etc.. is another thrilling in- .] stance of a loser’s despair. for the ‘ chances are it is mere supposition. and y 'no lady’ picked up anything. Now and 1 then it is a yellow headed parrot that goes astray to vary the endless variety of dogs whose owners publicly sorrow for their loss. About this live article there is always a sense of tragedy. and when I note it ‘found dog’ in the list i ' mentally congratulate whoever had the kind thought to advertise it and thus to put an end to the anxiety in its 33 . b I . l ‘1, A “LOST AND FOUND” COLUMN home.” Terence O'Grady had only been mar- ried a week, but his bride was already making things lively in the little house in Bullyhunion.

The distance cov- ered was from San Francisco to New York city. and the pedestrian was Mr. Zoe Gayton. He left San Francisco on Aug. 27. 1890, and arrived in New York March 27, 1891. Fooling the Neighbors. A Fuhnongering Railroad. “While looking through a piie of old paper: a correspondent came across the tollowing article in a New York paper of the date of Feb, 6. ism. under the caption of “The Smelt Railroadz" “It is well known that the Ports. mouth railroad. has to turn everything to account to pay running expenses, and many are the jokes they perpetrate upon the conductors in reference to their shifts to get‘a living. It is said that one of them last year was accus- tomed to bring fish from Portsmouth and peddle them out on the way to Concord. “One day he brought along smelts. dealing out to customers at every sta. tion, till he got to Suncook. where he blew his horn and an old woman came out and wanted six, ‘just a patternâ€"all I’ve got left. you’re in the nick of time.’ said he, and he began to count them and found only five. ‘IIow‘s this? I should have six.’ And he began to count his fingers and reckon over how he had disposed of the four dozen he had started with. After awhile: 'l have it! Hold on a little while and 1’" be back.’ said he. and he ran the train back seven miles to a place where he had let a woman have one more than she had paid for. got it. came back to Suncook and let the old woman have the six she wanted. and then the ‘smelt’ train went to Concord.”â€"Manchestcr (N. H.) Union. Sentinel and Honour. Two well known military terms. “sentinel” and “hussar,” afford capital instances of the remarkable manner in which a nation does its word twisting. At first sight there seems little connec- tion between the Latin word sentina, signifying the hold of a ship. and a soldier keeping watch over his sleeping comrades. The connecting link is at; torded by the word sentinator, the Roman who pumped the hold of Cut- sar’s galleys free of bilge water. Upon his constant vigilance depended the lives of the entire ship’s company. Similarly the word “hussar” is mere- ly a Hungarian term signifying "twen- tieth.” It arose in this manner: When Matthias Corvinus became king of Hungary in 1458 he was extremely afraid of foreign invasion. He conse- quently raised an army by the simple expedient of commandeering every twentieth individual in the land; hence the hussar. Mistake, Mistaken. The use of these words seems to be so anomalous as to need some inquiry and explanation. I may be mistaken. for I continually make mistakes. But when shown to have been mistaken I own myself in error. Yet, if 1 am mistaken. it is not the error of him who mistakes me? But it may be that i am right and that he is mistaken. though I suppose that I ought to take him aright and not mistake him. Nevertheless I often have to Bay in argument: "You were quite right. I was mistaken." In a word. though he who' mistakes must be in error. our common use of language considers him who is mis- taken to be so.â€"-Notes and Queries. Fanatical Morocco. Morocco, in spite of its close prox- imity to Europe. is the moSt fanatical of the Mohammedan countries. Chris- tians are hated by the natives through- out the country. and it is often very dangerous to go outside the town of Tangier. The business of Morocco is entirely in the hands of the Moorish Jews, who amass considerable wealth in the coast ports. It is not prudent for a Christian to stay anywhere but in the Jewish quarter. At the capital, Morocco City. and Fez the natives ex- pectorate and hurl stones at the “for- eign infidels." as they call them. and no Christian is safe in the streets un- less escorted by soldiers. The Good Red Grouse. Besides his many other claims to dis- tinction the “good red grouse” has one which is often forgotten. lie is the one vertebrate creature peculiar to the British isles. All the rest of our fauna is duplicated elsewhere, and even his cousin. the black cock. has foreign re- lations. but the true grouse exists no- where in the world except within the United Kingdom, and considering what a noble game bird he is. how hardy and plucky and how magnificent in his flight. the fact is really something to be proud of.â€"-London Globe. Strong Coollel. The power of endurance of the Chi- nese cooly is marvelous. Many will travel over forty miles. carrying a heavy load on their backs and think nothing of it. A writer mentions the case of certain coolies who. after go- ing twentyeeven hours without food and having carried a heavy burden in the meantime. still had .strength enough left to offer to carry 1 man fit- teen miles farther. le-cd Agnlnlt Signing.
