AT THE GARDEN GATE. " yourneys end in lovers 77ieeting" — Shakespeare.

A man's destiny is always dark.

GEMS OF THOUGHT FROM ANCIENT AUTHORS.

Every true thought is a valuable acqtiisition to society.

AN is born to do good. G^ Man's prerogative is mind.

Vulgar spirits scorn to bear.

One swallow does not makp a spring.

To seek what is impossible is madness.

Let no act be done without a purpose.

Thy life is short, turn to profit the present.

Time wears away and everything grows old.

Beauty when unadorned is adorned the most.

Every man is the architect of his own fortune.

The arbitrator looks to equity, the judge to law.

While thou livest, while it is in thy power, be good.

He loses character who puts himself on a level with the undeserving.

Let us be lambs in dis- position towards each other. ■

When liars do speak the truth, they are not believed.

An undeserved reproach goes no farther than the ears.

Kestrain your tongues, your appetites, and your passions.

Die I must, though death distaste ;

Why let life, then, run to waste ?

Give thyself time to learn something new and good.

Language is to the mind what beauty is to the body. ,

The roots of education are bitter, but the fruit is sweet.

Bfauty is woman's grace, but man's is courage.

Men often perish while meditating the ruin of others.

He deserves to be suspected who has once done an injury.

Adapt thyself to the things with which thy lot has been cast.

Think not so much of what thou hast not as of what thou hast.

Education is an ornament in prosperity, and a refuge in adversity.

The best sort of revenge is not to be like him who did the injury.

_A MAN is bound to be grateful if he has re- ceived a kindness.

Never value anything which compels thee to lose thy self-respect.

_ A man's folly is his worst foe and his discretion his best friend.

To reveal the gross vices of your fellows is always an ungrateful task.

There is nothing so calculated to win the affections of people as kindness.

It is precept and principle, not an estate, that makes a man good for something.

Since it is possible that thou mayst depart from life this very moment, regulate every thought and act accordingly.

Think it the first of virtues to restrain the tongue ; he approaches nearest to a god who knows when it is best to be silent.

Difficulties.

It is difficult to be the same

in heart and life ; It is difficult to bear insult

without answer ; It is difficult, being poor, to

be charitable ; It is difficult to attain one's

end -without exultation.

-Buddhist Script.

t|Jj0DERATI0N is best. '^^^ Carelessness is accounted a crime. While there is life there is hope. Wisdom is better than great valour. Economy is of itself a great revenue. Gratefully direct thy mind to God. Keep the choicest of thy love for God. Be not desponding when in difficulties. Beware in whom thou place thy trust. Society has killed far more than famine. To live long it is necessary to live slowly. He listens to good purpose who takes note. There is not a moment without some duty. By having nothing to do men learn to do evil. Every fool is a slave ; the wise man alone is free. The mind of man is always longing to do something.

Misers blame money, but are preposterously fond of it.

A wise man will restrain vice, and excite men to virtue.

Cultivation to the mind is as necessary as food is to the body.

The office of liberality consisteth in giving with judgment.

Those things alone are to be feared whence evil may proceed.

A contented life is the surest path to glory and lasting happiness. Before you begin consider, and when you have considered act.

In prosperity let us especially avoid pride, disdain, and arrogance.

With little pains is the investigation of truth pursued by most men.

Expediency most attends that line of conduct in which one does least wrong.

I'he wise learn many things from their ene- mies, for caution preserves all things.

The wicked man in private life will never prove the virtuous counsellor towards the public.

Silent and secret enmities are more to be dreaded than war openly declared and waged against us.

Look how thou walkest, take good heed thy soles do not tread on the heels of thy poor brethren.

True friends visit us in prosperity only when invited, but in adversity they come without invitation.

Expostulation is due to friends who are in error, but accusation to enemies who have com- mitted injustice.

Whatever that be which thinks, which understands, which wills, which acts, it is some- thing celestial and divine, and on that account must be eternal.

The man is very simple who thinks that when human nature is eagerly set on doing a thing he has any means of diverting it either by law or any other terror.

A Itemate rest and labour long endure.

EVERY MAN HIS OWN HUMORIST.

Laugh and grow fat.

fNQUIRER : *' What is the extreme penalty of bigamy?" — Two mothers-in-law.

Huiband (reading the paper): " What asses some men will make of themselves! "_ Wife: "Now, John, what have you done this time ? "

Some women are awfully touchy. A widow has brought an action against a local paper which said that tier husband had gone to a happier home.

" What is the reason," said one Irishman to another, " that you and your wife are always disagreeing?" "Because," replied Pat, "we are both of one mmd— she wants to be master, and so do I."

School Teacher : " Johnny, what is the second letter in the alphabet?" Johnny: "Don't know." School Teacher: "What flies about the garden?" Johnny : " When ? " School ' Teacher : "In the sum- mer." Johnny: "Oh, I know — mother after the hens ! "

Mr. Isaacstein : " I sells you dot coat, my frent, for £2. los. ; you dake hum along ? " Cjcstojner : "I thought, Isaacstein, that you didn't do business on Saturday, Isn't this your Sunday ? " Mr. Isaacsteifi {hi a lozv, reverent tone of voice) : " My frent, to sell a coat like dot for;^2 los.vas not peesness ; dot vas charity.''

Bobby came into the house sobbing and told his mother that Tommy White, a neighbour's boy, had kicked him. " Well, Tommy White is a very bgd boy," said Bobby's mother, handing him a large slice of cake ; " you didn't kick him back, did you, Bobby?" "No," replied Bobby, be- tween bites ; " I kicked him first ! "

The minister began, "Wilt thou have this woman to thy wedded wife ? " when the strapping groom interrupted him as follows : " Say, Mr. Minister, quit yer foolin' and get to bizzness. You know I'm here to take this lady, an' so what's the use o' ask in' me ? Besides, I don't allow nobody to call her a woman. She's a lady, she is ! "

Mrs. G. : "I understand you have had trouble with your servant girl." Mrs. H. : " Not at all." Mrs. G. : "Oh! then I was misinformed." Mrs. H.: "It was nothing. I was going to have a party, but she had arranged for one her- self that night." Mrs. G.: " And she gave hers up?" Mrs. H. : "No, I gave up mine, so we are still the best of friends."

" You are charged with bigamy,'' remarked the judge impressively, while the prisoner glanced over his shoulder at three stern-visaged women. "Now," continued the court, " I intend to give you the severest penalty the law allows." Here the prisoner covered his face with his hands and wept. " I shall sentence you to penal servitude for twenty years. What are you grinning at ? " " I thought," smiled the prisoner through his tears, " you was a-going to turn me loose."

An Advanced Girl

" Where are you going, my

pretty maid ? " " To lecture at Cambridge,

sir" she said. " What is your stdject, my

pretty maid ? " " The total extinction of

man," she said. " Then you can't marry, vty

pretty maid ? " " Advanced girls don't marry

now, sir," she said.

OMEN do not marry for money, but they say it is easier to love a rich man than a poor one.

" How can I hide my freckles ? " writes a sweet young thing. " Oh, paint your face black, Clara, paint your face black, and they won't show ; no, not by limelight."

" That will do ! That v/ill do, madam ! " said a dentist to a lady who wanted a tooth out, and opened her mouth very wide. " I am going to stand outside to operate."

Visitor : "Tommy, I wish to ask you a few ques- tionsingrammar." Zci/zf/wj/ : " Yes, sir " Visitor: " If I give you the sentence, ' The pup'l loves his teacher,' what is that ? " Tommy : " Sarcasm." " There is one thing I dread," remarked Fender- son, "and that is a prema- ture burial." "Don't worry about that," replied Fogg, " the thing is impossible : there is no danger of your being buried too soon."

"You must give me time, George, to think it over. It is all so strange, so unex- pected." " I will give you a year's time if you wish it. My love for you is great enough to bear that strain." " Oh, I don't want a vear — give me five minutes."

Mrs. Sharp {angrily) : "You're a fool !" ^ Mr. ' Sharp {meekly) : " Yes, dear." Mrs. Sharp : " And I'm a fool, too." Mr. Sharp (soothingly) : " Yes, dear." Mrs. Sharp (breaking into a storm of tears) : " Oh, you never would have said that to me before we married, never."

"Pa, what's a mirage ? " "It's the union of one man and one woman until the law shall sepa- rate them." " That's a marriage, pa. I want to know what a mirage is." " Same thing, sonny, same thing. A man imagines he sees wonders where there is nothing. Fight shy of them, sonny, fight shy of them. Each is a delusion and a snare." " Now that we are engaged, George," she said, shyly, " it is proper that we should have no secrets from one another. I have loved before, but it only resulted in a breach of promise case." "And what did you get?" asked George, hoarsely. " Six hundred pounds.'' " Ah, dear, never mind the breach of promise suit. ^ My love is founded upon rocks and will endure." _

" Oh, mamma ! " said the happy girl, holding a letter in her hand, "Harold has proposed at last!" " Let me see," said mamma. "Yes, it is a genuine proposal. Put on your clothes, love. We'll go down to the lawyer's office and have a copy made, and Harold's signature certified by two or three witnesses." "Why, mamma," ex- claimed the fair young maiden, " why must we do that?" "It is simply a proper precaution, daughter. This letter may be written in that new lovers' ink, which is warranted to fade in twenty-four hours after using."

The following is an easy

method of finding the

434 15 moon's age — i.e., the

number of days from the

last new moon,

I First we must take note

of the tabular numbers of

the months here given : —

January . . . . o

February . . . . 2

March i

April 2

May 3

June 4

July 5

August 6

September . . . . 8 October .. .. 8 November . . . . 10 December . . . . 10 Rule. — To find the moon's age on any given day in the years 1894 to 1900, add to the day of the month the number of the Epact of the year (see Principal Articles of the Calendar) and the tabular number of the month, and the sum will be the moon's age. If this sum exceeds 50 reject 30, and the remainder will be the moon's age — e.g., to find the age of the moon Christmas, 1894, number of days added to Epact number for 1894, 23, added to tabular number for December, 10, =: 25 + 23 4- 10 = 58._ Reject 30, and the remainder, 28, is the moon's age on that date.

The interval between successive full moons amounts to about twenty- nine and a half days. This interval is called a lunar month or lunation,

GARDENING FOR THE MONTH.

Sow early mazagan and long-pod beans during' the first and last weeks of the month, onions on very light soils ; parsley, short-topped raddish, and hardy green and brown Dutch lettuce. All kinds of fruit-trees should be pruned ; wash those trees which are infested with insects with soap suds and flour of sulphur, and tobacco liquor. Prepare for making up hot-beds for early cucumbers and melons. Sow salads, carrots, and kidney beans on slight hot beds. Plant

dried tubers and bulbs of border flowers if not done in autumn. Transplant herbaceous plants in light soils if not done in autumn. Also deci- duous trees, shrubs, and hedges. Lay edgings when the weather is fine. Sow mignonette, stocks, etc., in pots. Sow sweet peas, and a few hardy annuals on a warm border. Look over dahlia roots and remove all decayed portions with a sharp knife, and get soil and other re- quisites in readiness for potting pelargoniums.

A Royal Marriage.

The marriage of Prince Ferdinand of Roumania and Princess Marie of

b'dinburgh took place at Sigmaringen, the seat of ihe Hohenzollerns, on the loth of Januaiy, 1893.

There was first a civil ceremony, performed at 2 p.m. in the Red-hall of the Castle, by Herr von Wedel, the Minister of the Royal House.

At 4 o'clock the grand ceremony — the marriage, according to the rites of the Roman Catholic Church — took place in the town church, dedicated to St. John, which forms an integral part of the Castle.

After the Roman Ca- tholic ceremony there was yet another rite to be per- formed. The guests, after leaving the church, assembled first of all in the Ancestors' Room, where they congratulated the newly-married pair. When the congratulations were ended, a second marriage ceremony, ac- cording to the rites of the Anglican Church, was performed in an adjoin- ing room, fitted up as a temporary chapel. In front of a reredos, com- posed of white and gold silk, was the altar, covered with a beautiful cloth, also in white and gold, on vyhich stood a cross, two lighted candles, and two vases of flowers. The Rev. W. V. Lloyd, the private chaplain of the Duke of Edinburgh, read the service.

GARDENING FOR THE MONTH.

Sow beans and peas in the beginning and end of the month ; a few early cabbages, red cabbages, and savoys in the last week. Sow also early horn carrot, Dutch turnip, onions for a full crop, in light soils, with a few leeks. Sow chervil and fennel, and lettuce, with radishes and round- leaved spinach, twice in the course of the month. Small salads every fortnight. Plant Jerusalem artichokes, garlic, horse-radish and early potatoes. Strawberries may be planted about the end of the month. Transplant for seed cabbage, cauli- flowers, turnips, etc. Transplant to the bottom of a south wall a few of the peas sown in November for the first croo. Prune apricots, | peaches, nectarines, and plums before the buds '

be much swelled ; also apples, pears, cherries, gooseberries, currants, and raspberries before the end of the month. Continue the forcing of all kinds of fruit. In the flower garden in good weather plant dried roots including most of the finer florist's flowers. Continue the transplant- ing of hardy perennial flowers and herbaceous plants. Sow in the last week mignonette and hardy annuals in a warm border for subsequent transplanting. It is to be observed that by sow- ing in February, and again in March or April one is able to obtain a succession of flowers of the same kind in the summer and autumn. Chinese roses and those of robust growih should now be pruned.

MARRIAGE OF PRINCESS MARIE OF EDINBURGH.

On his Lordship's Side.

SCASE was being tried in the West of England, and at its termination the judge charged the jury, and they retired for consulta- tion. Hour after hour passed, and no verdict was brought in. The judge's dinner-hour had arrived, and he became hungry and impatient. Upon inquiry he learned that one obstinate jury- man was holding out against eleven, and he ordered the twelve men to be brought before him.

He told them, sternly, that he had so plainly stated the case and the law that the verdict ought to be unanimous, and the man who permitted his individual opinion to weigh against the judgment of eleven men of wisdom was unfit and disqualified ever again to act in the capacity of juryman. At the end of this excited harangue a little squeaky voice came from one of the jury.

He said — " Will your lordship allow me to say a word ? "

Permission being given, he added — " May it please your lordship, I am the only man on your

side." ;r^=:;i:=z::=^

Occupation for Children.

The habits of children prove that occupation is of necessity with most of them. They love to be busy, even about nothing, still more to be use- fully employed. With some children it is a strongly developed physical necessity, and if not turned to account will be productive of evil.

Children should be encouraged, or if indolently disinclined to it, should be disciplined into per- forming for themselves every little office relative to the toilet which they are capable of performing. Thej' should also keep their own clothes and other possessions in neat order, and fetch for themselves whatever they want ; in short, they should learn to be as independent of the services of others as possible.

No Kings Here !

tjtes N one occasion, when a young American ^^ actor was acting Richard tJie Third in Philadelphia, some of the underlings kept their hats on while he was on the stage, whereat the stage manager remonstrated, requesting them in a whisper to uncover, as they were in the pre- sence of a king, to which admonition he received the following characteristic reply : —

" Fiddlestick ! I guess we care nothing about kings in this country."

The Last Word.

It was in a sleeping-car on an American railway, and they thought that everyone else was asleep. Probably everyone had been, but they woke me.

When I was enough awake to notice what was going on, I heard her : —

" Well, I don't care. I think you're real mean. All I want "

" Yes," broke in he ; "all you want now is the last word, same as you always have, ain't it ? "

" Yes, and I'll have it, too ! " spitefully.

" You won't."

"See if I don't."

" All right."

"All right it is."

" Have to mock every word I say, don't you ?"

" Heavens, no ! You never say anything worth repeating."

" Why do you echo me, then?" " I don't ! " "You do!" "I don't!" " Shut up !/' ;' I won't ! " " Ugh ! " And there was a noise like a man tumbling into his berth.

Then we heard, rather softly, as if talking to herself — "I said I'd have the last word, and I did. ' Ugh' don't count, 'cause I don't believe it is a word."

On the opposite page we give a picturesque glimpse of Ivinghoe, one of the ancient market-towns of England. It is situated in Buckinghamshire, about nine miles east from Aylesbury. The industry of the place concerns it- self chiefly with straw- plait and lace.

Quaint Language.

The following is taken from a volume of sermons published during the reign of James I. : — " This dial shows that we must die all; yet not- withstanding, all houses are turned into ale houses ; OUT cares into cates ; our paradise into a pair o' dice; matriviony into a matter d money, and marriage into a merry age ; our divines have become dry vines. It was not so in the days of Noah — Ah, no !"

Making Music.

Meyerbeer, that man of mournful melody and plaintive notes, used to shut himself up in an old granary hidden from all eyes. In hearing the v.'ild wind moan, the rain coming down in torrents, the storm burst over the heads of those exposed thereto, was the source of his wonderful inspira- tion. He delighted in thumping out upon his piano an imitation of the disorder of the elements — the wailing of the blast, the crashing of the thunder, and the flashing of the lightning and the roaring of the ocean.

GAEDE17ING FOR THE MONTH.

Sow mam crops of beans, peas, cabbages, onions, leel<s,carrots, parsnips, Brussels sprouts, broccolis, lettuces, and spinach. Sow turnips and savoys m the beginning and end of the month. In the last fortnight sow asparagus, cauliflowers, sea-kale, celery, etc. Small salads should now be sown every ten days. Plant early potatoes in the first week, and a main crop during the last fortnight. Jerusalem artichokes, sea-kale, asparagus, and peas raised in frames may now be planted. Pro-

pagate by slips the various pot herbs as mint, sage, savory, tansy, etc. Finish the pruning of fruit-trees before the middle of the month. Begin grafting in the third week. In the last week sow hardy annuals in the borders with biennials that flower the first season. Thin out and plant some of the autumn-sown annuals. This most important month for getting in main crops of several kinds is proverbial for boisterous weather, but advantage should be taken of fine intervals.

Healthy Exercise.

Professional men should have recreation largely of a physical nature. A brisk walk is what physicians most frequently recommend for exercise ; but for a person not accustomed to exercise this is not always beneficial, for, his brain being the only part of his body that is kept in activity, the exercise forces the blood into the head, and he returns home with a severe headache. Such a man should take pas- sive exercise, such as rowing, sailing or hunting, where his mind could be in slight activity also.

The majority of men engaged in mercantile pursuits get enough physical exercise from their every-day life, and their recreation should be of a mental nature. A few days in the countr5', a change of scenery, is beneficial to everyone. Stockbrokers and bankers require a very quiet recreation, but instead they try to get their recreation from the most exciting of sports, which is really- no change from their daily life. Mechanics and clerks are recommended to attend light entertainments, such as concerts, lectures, or play cards, chess, draughts, or other games of that nature.

Women and children, the former especially, rely too njuch on excitement for recreation, and carry it to such an excess that it becomes simple dissipation.

A distinction must be understood between ex- citement which invigorates and excitement which exhausts. Dancing and roller skating are excellent exercises, but under the excitement of the music are too often continued to exhaustion.

What Might Have Been.

It m'ght have been that the sky was green, and

the grass serettely blue ; It might have been that grapes on thorns, and

figs on thistles grezv ; It might have been that rainbows befijre the

shoivers catne ; It might have been that lambs were fierce, and

bears and tigers tame ; It might have been that cold ivould melt, and

summer heat luould freeze ', It m'ght have been that ships at sea wo7ild sail

against the breeze ; A nd there may be -worlds unknown, dear, where

%ve 7tiightfind the change Frovi all that we have seen or heard, to others

just as strange ; But it co7ild never be tvise, dear, in haste to act

or speak. It could never be noble to harm the poor and

weak ; It never cojild be kind, dear, to give a needless

pain ; It never could be honest, dear, to sin for greed

of gain- ; And tliere could not be a world, dear, while

God is trtie above. When right and wrong are governed by any

law btit love.

Reading without purpose is sauntering, not exer- cise. More is got from one book on which the thought settles for a definite end in knowledge than from libraries skimmed over by a wandering eye.

Wili-Making.

"What's in a name?" The author of the follow- ing will evidently had great ideas of his own family name.

A Mr. Furstone, having no family, left ;^7,ooo to any man legitimately bearing the name of Fur- stone who should discover and marry a female Fur- stone. If the marriage should result in children, the same was to descend to the male offspring, if any, or to any child or children of the opposite sex who should, if mar- ried, retain the name of Furstone.

Parents, as everybody knows, are apt to con- sider their daughters worth their weight in gold, but a Scotch gen- tleman estimated his two daughters' value even at a higher rate than this, bequeathing to each her weight in £\ bank-notes. The elder seems to have been slimmer than her sister, for she only got ;^5i,2oo, while the younger wa^ fortunate enough ioreceive.)£57,344.

Often does it happen that by an ambiguous expression in a will people come in for property which was never intended for them. For example, some years ago a lady anxious to leave her ser- vant her clothing, jewel- lery, and whatever else she had worn on her person, thought she could not be wrong in describ- ing it as "personalty," thus unwittingly includ- ing in the bequest

GARDENING FOE THE MONTH.

Sow asparagus, sea-kale, beet, carrots, and onions on heavy soils ; also peas, beans, turnips, spinach, celery, cabbages, savoys and German greens for succession. Sow broccoli and kidney beans both in the second and in the last weeks. Plant cauliflowers, cabbages, sea-kale, lettuce, and finish the planting of the main crop of potatoes. Attend to the hoeing and thinning of spinach, onions, turnips, etc. Earth up cabbages, cauliflowers, peas, beans, and early potatoes. Stake peas, blanch sea-kale and rhubarb in the open air by covering with straw or leaves. Sow

main or succession crops of annuals of all sorts ; half hardy annuals in warm borders or in slight hot-beds. Biennials and perennials should be sown before the middle ot the month. Plant tigridia pavonia, and fine stocks. Finish the transplanting of herbaceous plants by the end of the first week. Plant out tender deciduous trees and shrubs reared in pots. Remove part of the coverings of all tender shrubs and plants in the first week, and the remainder at the end of the month. Keep a sharp look out for slugs, which are very destructive to young plants.

A Man-of-War Ashore.

While entering the har- bour of Ferrol on the 2nd of November, 1892, along with the other vessels of the Channel Fleet, H. M. S. Howe got aground on a reef. The ship struck whilst steam- ing seven knots, and im- mediately afterwards the fires in two stokeholds were extinguished. The water-tight doors were immediately closed and steam-pumps were set to work, but they proved incapable to overcome the volume of water entering the ship, and in about three-quarters ofan hour three of the stoke- holds and the port engine- room were flooded. After using every means to overcome the influx of water, the engine-rooms and stokeholds were left after the fires were put out. A great hole was in the hull abreast of the after stokehold.

The Howe is a twin- screw battleship of the first class. She is a barbette ship of the "Admiral" class, having a displacement of 10,300 tons, and 11,500 indicated horse-power. She carries four 67-ton breech-loading rifled guns, six 6 in. and 5-ton breech-loading rifled guns, nineteen quick- firing guns, and seven machine guns.

A court-martial in re- spect of the stranding of the Howe was held at Portsmouth at the close of November. The cap- tain and navigating com- mander were acquitted, the disaster being proved to have been caused by inaccuracy of the charts.

GAEDENIKG FOE THE MONTH.

Sow small salads every week, radishes and lettuces thrice, spinach once a fortnight. Peas and beans, cauliflowers, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, etc., for late crops. Continue the various op rations of hoeing and earthing up the different crops. Pick caterpillars from gooseberry bushes and wall-trees on their first appearance. Re- move from raspberries and strawberries all suckers and runners that are not wanted. Sow animals fi)r succession. Propagate bj' cuttings

dahlias, pansies, double wall-flowers, rockets, scarlet lychnis, and lobelias, by dividing the roots. Plant out during the last week dah- lias, hardy pelargoniums, and stocks, protecting the dahlias from slight frosts. Take great care to keep lawns and walks in perfect good order, for no garden can be thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated by people of taste where they are allowed to remain untidy and neglected.

ASHORE AT FERROL.

In Malta.

ALTA is the paradise of small incomes. @3^ For all the little luxuries of life it is per- haps the cheapest place in Europe. You can drive any distance in a cab for 6d., or take it for an hour for is. 6d. ; a boat to a vessel in the harbour costs you 2d. ; beef is 6>^d. a pound ; four mutton cutlets cost 6d. ; grapes are 3d. a pound ; and washing is. 8d. a dozen. Then there is a perpetual lawn-tennis, constant balls and parties, and a good Italian opera, a stall of which is to be had for is. 3d.

There are simple sailor officers and beautiful soldier officers, all unmairied and marriageable. The wonder is that all the hardly-entreated mothers of Great Britain don't come out here every winter with all their daughters.

But there are always at least four prices in Malta for everything. There is the price to the natives, who know all about it, which is the price ; there is the price to any kind of foreigner in general ; there is the price to the English ; and there is the price to the yachtsman ; each one of these prices rising above the other in a geometrical proportion.

There is a still further price— the price that the late Lady Brassey paid —but this is now only a fondly and sadly-remembered tradition, appealed to by the vendor as a proof of his moderation, and the fact that there were once good old times even in Malta. A Maltese gentleman, who had been for a short time in our dear foggy old island, was recently asked what he thought of England on the whole.

"England, sar," said he, "great country, sar — yes ! England grand country. You go into shop — ask how much that? He says 3s. 6d. Yes. Maltee gentleman come. How much ? 3s. 6d. Yes. Greek, Italian, Jew come. Yes. How much? 3s. 6d. 3s. 6d. to English, French, Greek, Jew. All same everybody. Yes. Eng- land great country, sar."

The «« Neck Verse."

fN the Roman Catholic Church the fifty-first Psalm, beginning with the word " Mise- rere," is usually appointed for penitential acts. It is also known as the "neck verse." In olden times criminals who could repeat this verse were able to save their necks from the hangman. It is as follows: — "Have mercy upon me, O God, according to Thy loving kind- ness ; according unto the multitude of Thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions."

The King and the Ants.

One day, according to a Rabbinical story, King Solomon rode out of Jerusalem with a great retinue. An ant-hill lay directly in his path, and Solomon with his keen ears heard its little people talking.

" Here comes the great king," he heard one of them say. "His flatterers call him the wise, and just, and merciful, but he is about to ride over us and crush us without heeding our sufferings."

And Solomon told the Queen of Sheba, who rode with him, what the ant said, and the Queen made answer, " He is an insolent creature, oh. King ! It is a better fate than he deserves to be trodden under our feet."

But Solomon said, "It is the part of wisdom to learn of the lowest and weakest." And he commanded his train to turn aside and spare the ant-hill.

Then all the courtiers marvelled greatly, and the Queen of Sheba bowed her head and made obeisance to Solomon, and said —

" Now know I the secret of thy wisdom. Thou listenest more patiently to the reproaches of the humble than thou hast ever done to the flatteries of the great."

The view on the opposite page is from Brill, in the west of Buckinghamshire near where that county borders upon Oxfordshire.

Edinburgh Castle.

As a person was showing Dr. Johnson the Castle of Edinburgh, he mentioned to him a tradition that some part of it had been standing 300 years before Christ. ''Much faith," replied the doctor in his usual manner, "is due to tradition ; and that part of the fortress which was standing at so early a period must undoubtedly have been the rock upon which it was founded ! "

Doctors' Fees.

The fees of the more re- nowned doctors are al- ways interesting to lay- men. Radcliffe, we are told, made over £'j,ooo a year in the height of his fame. Mead ^5,000 to ;^6,ooo, Baillie ^9,000 to ^lOjOoo, and Sir H. Hoi- ford the largest income ever known in the pro- fession, namely, ;^io,ooo to ^11,000. As to special fees, Radcliffe once re- ceived ;£i,6oo for visiting Lord Albemarle at Na- mur.

The fee of fees, however, was that received by Dr. Dimsdale in 1768 for in- oculating the Empress Catherine and her son at Petersburg. It consisted in ;^ 12,000 paid down, a pension of ;^50o a year for life, and the dignity of a Baron of the Empire.

GARDENING FOR THE MONTH.

Sow peas and beans for late crops. The kinds used for early crops are likewise best for this pur- pose. Sow salading every ten days, also carrots and onions for drawing young. In the beginning of the month sow endive for an early crop. In the first week sow turnips for succession, and in the third week for a full autumn crop. Pull and store winter onions if ripe. Train and prune the summer shoots of all descriptions of wall and trellis trees. Net over cherry-trees to protect the fruit from birds. Destroy insects bj' repeated wash- ings and directing tobacco smoke against them,

or by strewing snuff (or the fine powder of tobacco) over them. Take up all bulbs and dry ihem in the shade before removing them. Re- move all kinds of decaying crops. Sow perennials if neglected last month, to be planted out in the spring. Dahlias and chrysanthemums should be planted now ; they require beds of good soil heavily manured and deeply trenched to grow them to perfection, but they will do in any orditiary garden soil and should be freely planted in mixed borders and amongst shrubs whiclvthey will brighten in the autumn months.

A VIEW FROM BRILL.

English and French.

"oW^N Englishman," says Kossuth, "would C^-F^ live twenty years in a house without knowing his neighbours ! A Frenchman would know all of them in twenty-four hours.

"Let the sociable Frenchman be planted among the tattooed islanders of the South Seas, and in two years he would be found tattooed. Put an Englishman in the same position, and he would be king of the island in the same time."

English as She is Spoke.

A NOTICE displayed in a Norway hotel is a curious specimen of " English as she is spoke." It reads as follows ; — " Bath ! first-class bath. Can anybody get. Tushhath. Warm and cold. Tub-bath and shower-bath at any time. Except Saturday. By two hours for-bore."

This brings to *mind another specimen of foreigners' English, displayed on a notice posted up in an art exhibition in Japan to which foreigners were welcomed. Here are a few ex- amples of the rules : — •" Visitors is requested at the entrance to show tickets for inspection. Tickets are charged lo sens and 2 sens, for the special and common respectively. No visitor who is mad or intoxicated is allowed to enter in, if any person found in shall be claimed to retire. No visitor is allowed to carry in with himself any parcel, umbrella, stick, and the like kind, except his purse, and is strictly forbidden to take in with himself dog, or the same kind of beasts. Visitor is requested to take good care of himself from thievely."

An Englishman in Boulogne saw displayed in a shop-window this notice — " Eating and drink- ing sold here."

Wolves in Paris.

OPN the year 1437 the vicinity of Paris was so O infested with wolves that they entered the city by the river, and devoured fourteen or fif- teen persons. In the following year they again suddenly entered the city, killed four women and bit seventeen other individuals, eleven of whom died of their wounds.

There was one formidable wolf in particular, called Courtatid, because he had no tail, that became an object of universal dread. When anyone was leaving, it was said, ^^ Gardez-vous Courtand." This animal at length was killed, and his carcass paraded through the streets of Paris as a spectacle.

The Famous Sonnet of Arvers.

Arvers was a young litterateur who died by his own hand about 1846. This sonnet was found among his private papers. It is known in French literature as "Z^ Jdinenx Sonnet d' Arvers." ' ' My S021I has its own secret ; life its care ;

A hopeless love, that in one moment drew The breath of life. Silent its pain I bear.

Which she who caused it knows not— never knew.

Alas ! by her untnarked, my passion grew As by her side I walked — most lonely there. A nd lons^ as life may last I am aware

I shall win nothitig—for I dare not sue ; Whilst she whom God has made so kind and sweet Goes heedless on her way with steadfast feet.

Unconscious of Loves whispers m-urniured low. To dnty faithful as a saint, some day Readifig these lines, all filled zvith her, she' II say j

' Who was this woman ? ' and will never ktiow."

The flashing tnornents of too short a life ;

Total extinction ofth' enlightened soul —

IVho would in such a gloomy state remain

Thomson.

Beauty.

'^ HO hath not proved how feebly words essay

To fix one spark of Beauty's heavenly ray ? Who doth not feel until his failing sight Faint into dimness with its own delight, His changing cheek, his sinking heart confess The might, the majesty of loveliness." — Byron.

Marriage of the Duke of York.

The marriage of the Duke of York and Princess Victoria Mary of Teck was celebrated on the 6th of July, 1893, in the Chapel Royal, St. James's Palace. No circumstance of splendour was wanting, Nothing was omitted that could strike the fancy or impress the imagination. The ordered grace of the State function, the gay livery of the streets, the vast concourse of specta- tors from all classes of the population and all parts of the United Kingdom made the occasion one that will never be effaced from the memory of those who beheld it. The wea- ther was the most brilliant possible.

The Princess May looked pale, but very composed, as she was conducted up the aisle by her father. At the close of the ceremony the Duke of York led his bride to the Queen, who embraced her affectionately ; the Prince of Wales patted his son on the shoulder as he parted with him.

The Duke led his wife by the hand down the chapel, and the newly- married couple entering their carriage, drove to Buckingham Palace. On reaching the palace, after a short rest, the marriage register was signed and attested. Then followed luncheon ; and at a quar- ter to five the bride and bridegroom took an affec- tionate farewell of their relatives and drove to Liverpool Street, where they took train and pro- ceeded to Sandringham.

GAEDENING FOR THE MONTH.

Sow peas in the first week for the last crop of the season. In the last week sow yellow turnips for a full winter crop, and spinach for an early winter supply. Plant full crops of celery, celeriac, and endive about the middle and end of the month. Lace crops of broccoli, cauliflower, and coleworts in the last week. Gather and dry medicinal and pot-herbs, also propagate such by slips and cuttinsis. Continue the summer pruning and training of all wall trees with the destruction of insects. Plant strawberries in pots for forcing

next winter. Take up the remainder of tuberous roots, such as anemones and ranunculus, and finish by the end of the first week. Propagate herbaceous and other plants that have gone out of flower by means of slips and cuttings. Hoe beds of violets, remove runners, attend to waterings. Chrysanthemums will require throughout the season frequent applications of liquid manure, and should at no time be allowed to flag ; stake them whenever necessary and thin out the weak shoots.

THE MARRTAGE OF THE DUKE OF YORK.

The Biter Bit.

, CERTAIN policeman on duty at the gates t^-r- of one of the London docks has the name of beuig one of the sharpest and most cunning amongst his comrades. No person could ever boast of getting any excisable goods, such as tobacco or cigars, out of the dock whilst he was on duty, and he was proud of the same. If he was offered a bribe he always took it, and had the offender arrested afterwards in the act.

One day, however, a ship arrived from India, and the skipper, a 'cute, hard-headed Scotsman, came ashore in the evening and proceeded to the gates. Walking up boldly to the policeman, he whispered in his ear — ■'" I've got some rare tobacco and some valuable cigars, which the Customs folk have overlooked, and I want to smuggle them oot th' morn's nicht. It'll be all richt, I suppose?" and at the same time slipping half-a-crown into the policeman's hand.

The redoubtable Robert smiled a malignant smile, and said it would be all right, and the merry skipper passed out of the gates, and went on his way rejoicing.

The next night the skipper was walking boldly out of the dock-gates when he was seized by the policeman, and taken into his watch box, where he was confronted by a sergeant, and underwent a thorough search. Much to the officer's chagrin, however, neither tobacco, cigars, or anything of an excisable nature was found on his person, and he asked the skipper what he had done with them.

"Oh!" said the skipper quite innocently, " 1 had them on me last nicht when I gave you the half-croon, and I just thocht I'd better tak' them oot there and then, which I did."

It was remarkable how much that policeman aged during the next twenty-four hours.

A Thoughtful Parent.

JETTED DA UGIITER : " Papa, what has 4-^ come over you? I never had a wish jou were not anxious to gratify, and you even antici- pated my wants and handed me money for all sorts of things I hadn't even thought of. But now I have to ask you for every shilling I need, and you growl and grumble, and ask if I think you are made of money, and what on earth 1 did with the last cheque or sovereign you gave me. Don't you love me any more ? "

Papa: "My darling, I love you as much as ever, but you are soon to be married, and I am trying to gradually prepare you for the change."

An Actor Asleep.

Mr. Joseph Jefferson, who was once plaj'ing Rip Van IVinkle at Chicago, went to the theatre very much exhausted by a long day's fishing. When the curtain rose on the third act, it dis- closed the white-haired Rip still deep in his twenty years' nap. Five, ten, twenty minutes passed, and he did not waken. The fact was that all the time Jefferson was really sleeping.

Finally the gallery became uproarious, and a man called out — ■" Is there going to be nineteen years more of this snooze business ? "

At this point Jefferson began to snore.

This decided the prompter, who opened a small trap and began to prod Rip from below.

The much-travelled comedian began to fumble in his pocket for an imaginary railway-ticket, and muttered, "Going right through, 'ductor."

The audience was transfixed with amazement.

An instant later Jefferson sat up, with a loud shriek, and evidently in agony. The exasperated prompter had "jabbed " him with a pin !

Hampton.

The small town of Hampton is situated about twenty-four miles from London, and lies on the left bank of the Thames, The town is scattered over a consider- able space, a number of villas and houses of a similar class having from time to time been added to the original street or strand of Hampton. " The Cockney appella- tion, "Appy 'Ampton,' " says Mr. Charles Dickens, " arises from the Hamp- ton races, which, in point of fact, do not take place at Hampton at all, but at Molesey Hurst, on the other side of the river and in another county.

" Among the notabilia of Hampton is Garrick Villa, on the bank of the river opposite the island just past the church. The house itself stands some little distance back, being separated from the lawn which abuts on the river by the high road, undir which Garrick constructed a .short tunnel. On the lawn is a summer-house, sometimes grandiosely described as a temple, which at one time con- tained Roubiliac's statue to Shakespeare, after- wards removed to the hall of the British Museum."

The church — though the register dates from 1712 — is a comparatively modern building, not by any means to be com- mended, having been built at a disastrous ar- chitectural period. Al- though its exterior is not promising, it is not un- deserving of a visit.

GARDENING FOR THE MONTH.

Sow winter and spring spinach in the beginning and about the end of the month ; parsley and winter onions for a full crop in the first week, cab- bages, cauliflowers, savoys, and German greens about the middle of the month for planting out in spring. Lettuces in the first and last week ; small salads occasionally. Plant and earth up celery and endive. A few coleworts may still be planted, Net up in dry weather gooseberry and currant bushes to preserve the fruit till the late autumn.

Every exertion should now be made to preserve the ripening fruit on the walls from insects and to destroy wasps' nests. Sow auricula and primula seeds in pots and boxes. Continue to bud roses, and insert cuttings ; this is the best of all months for budding. Pansies may still be propagated under hand lights ; select for cuttings the young shoots that spring from the base of the old plants. The herbaceous borders will now be very gay with sweet peas, sweet-williams, etc.

The Comtist Calendar.

J^HE Comtist calendar consists of thirteen ■^ months of four weeks each. The months are thus proportioned : —

The first to Moses (representing theocratic civilisation).

The second to Homer (ancient poetry).

The third to Aristotle (ancient philosophy).

The fourth to Archimedes (ancient science).

The fifth to Caesar (military civilisation).

The sixth to St. Paul (Catholicism).

The seventh to Charlemagne (feudal civili- sation).

The eighth to Dante (modern epic poetry) .

The ninth to Gutenberg (modern industry^.

The tenth to Shakespeare (modern drama).

The eleventh to Descartes (modern philo- sophy).

The twelfth to Frederick II. (modern states- manship).

The thirteenth to Bichat (modern science).

" Of course," says a recent critic, "it is easy to be puzzled with the system under which the names are grouped.

" One does not see very clearly why the painters should be classed under epic poetry, and musicians under the modern drama.

"Some may think it strange to see Galileo, Newton, Lavoisier, and Lamarck sitting at the feet of Bichat.

"Thomas a Kempis, too, looks to heretic eyes a little out of place in the company of Byron and Shelley, of Klopstock and Madame de Stael,

" But a list of great names is like a list of the best books, or an anthology.

" Every man will prefer to make it for himself."

^■m^;^ The Art of Inlaying in Wood.

" c^T ARQUETRY " is a French term, which (^-r^ expresses what in England we call " wood-inlaying," and wood-inlaying of some description is an art of great antiquity. It ap- pears probable that the art of inlaying was known to both the ancient Egyptians and Assy- rians, and the Romans, besides their free use of mosaics for pavements, appear to have frequently employed veneers.

But it is in Italy in the fifteenth century that we really come upon veritable wood-inlaj'. This was a form of decorative work called " intarsia- tura," in which designs and even pictures were built up by the juxtaposition of a number of small cubes of wood of different colours. While, however, these wooden cubes were comparatively thick, modern marquetry is cut out of very thin veneers.

The Lights of Home.

In many a village window burn

The evening lamps ;

They shine amid the dews and damps. Those lights of home I

Afar the waiiderer sees them glow,

Now night is near ;

They gild his path with radiance clear. Sweet lights of home.

Ye lode stones that for ever draw

The iveary heart.

In stranger lands or crowded mart, O ! lights of home.

When my brief day of life is o'er

Then may I see

Shine fro7n the heavenly house for me. Dear lights of home. H, J. King.

LO^.S OF THE STEAMER

How Do You Walk?

t^S soon as a man comes into my shop and r- takes off his shoes," says a shoemaker of large experience, " I can tell whether or not he. is a good walker, and it is astonishing to find how few men know the proper way to step out. If the shoe is worn down at the heel, not on the side but straight back, and the leather of the sole shows signs of weakness at the ball of the foot, a little greater on the inside just below the base of the great toe, I know that the wearer is a good walker. If, however, the heel is turned on one side, or is worn unevenly throughout, and the sole is worn most near the toe, I know that I have todeal with a customer who is but a poor pedestrian.

" The reason of the difference in position of the worn spot lies in the fact that the poor walker walks from his knee and the good one from his hip.

"Watch the passer-by on the street, and you will at once see the difference. Nine men out of ten will bend the knee very considerably in walking, stepping straight out with both hips on the same line, and the toe will be the first to strike the ground,

" The tenth man will bend his knee very little, just enough to clear the ground, and will swing the leg from the hip. very much as the arm is swung from the shoulder, and not from the elbow. By so doing he calls upon the muscles which are strongest to bear the strain, and in- creases the length of his stride four or six inches. The heel touches the ground first and not the toe. A slight spring is given from the ball of the foot on the pedestrian making another stride.

"Men who walk in this fashion cover the ground 30 per cent, faster with the same exertion than those who are in tne habit of walking from the knee."

The Art of Music.

tJjjfN all countries legends exist ascribing the eJ origin of music to a celestial source. China, Greece, Rome, Assyria, Egypt, and India all concur in giving the art a divine origin, and also in returning the gift to its Maker in songs ot praise.

Egypt, however, recognised the dual character of music by a legend which described music as springing from two sources, the one good, the other evil.

The Egyptian was more sparing of music in religious service than Roman or Grecian, but deserves thanks for at least understanding that music, like any other art, could be abused. E.ven to-day, the division between the sensuous and lofty in music is a strongly marked one ; and, unfortunately, the tendency of modern composers is too often toward the former style, and the oratorio school seems almost extinct.

The Vigil of Adam.

FA R in Asia, saith the legend.

On a peak -whose nameless towers Use the plains a h'indred miles off

For their dial of the honrs ; IVhere the tallest Himalaya

Rises sad because so lonely, Whence the eagle sivoops in terror,

And the stars of God a7-e only ;

Sitteth one of ancient visage,

One more strange than aught below him. One ivho lived so near to God once.

That for 7nan ijue scarce shotild know him ; Far above the bicsy luorld tribes,

Miles above the pine trees, bending, Lonely as ivlwn G^d first made hint.

There he keepeth watch jcnendins^.

A Curious Case.

Here is a case of Orien- tal justice that could hardly be outdone for sharp and subtle dis- crimination. Four men, partners in business, bought some cotton bales. That the rats might not destroy the cotton they purchased a cat. They agreed that each of thefour should own a particular leg of the cat, and each adorned with beads and other ornaments the leg thus apportioned to him.

The cat, by an acci- dent, injured one of its legs. The owner of that member wound about it a rag soaked in oil. The cat, going too near the fire, set the rag on fire, and, being in great pain, rushed in among the cot- ton bales where she was accustomed to hunt rats. The cotton thereby took fire, and was burned up. It was a total loss.

The three other part- ners brought an action, to recover the value of the cotton, against the fourth partner, who owned the particular leg of the cat. The judge examined the ca.se, and decided thus : — "The leg that had the oil rag on it was hurt ; the cat could not use that leg — in fact, it held up that leg, and ran with the other three legs. The three unhurt legs, there- fore, carried the fire to the cotton, and are alone culp- able. The injured leg is not to be blamed. The three partners who owned the three legs with which the cat ran to the cotton will pay the whole value of the bales to the partner who was the proprietor of the injured leg."

GAEDENING FOR -THE MONTH.

Plant small salads and radishes in the first week, mazagan beans and early frame peas in the last week. If the winter prove mild, they will be some- what earlier than those sown next month or in January. Plant cabbages in beds or close rows till wanted in the spring. Store potatoes, beet, carrots, parsnips, etc., by the end of the month. This is the best season for transplanting fruit-trees. Store and lay up very carefully during the month all sorts of apples and pears, the longest-keeping sorts not before the end of the month, if the

weather be mild. A great part of them may be placed in a close cellar. Plant the greater part of the common border bulbs about the end of the month, with a few anemones for early flowering. Put in cuttings of all sorts of evergreens. De- stroy weeds and protect choice flowers from heavy rains. Some plants of violets should_ now be lifted and planted close up to the glass in a cold frame. This is a good time to divide and trans- plant herbaceous plants. Phloxes, scarlet lychnis, etc., may be treated and increased in this way.

A Good Reason.

!?[_ LITTLE girl was told by her nurse that (o^- if she did not think so much by day she would dream less at night. " But I can't help thinking," she said, and added pathetically, " I cannot make my mind sit down."

Marrying Again.

fT is not unusual for a man to leave all his property to his wife, with the proviso that if she marries again she is to have only what the law allows her. Governor Morris, the celebrated American statesman, did not treat his wife so. He had married very late in life a woman much younger than himself, and with whom he lived very happily. He bequeathed a very handsome income to her, and then provided that in case she married again the income should be doubled.

Odd Burial Customs.

The Mohammedans always, whether in their own country or one of adoption, bury without coffin or casket of any kind.

During the time of the oid Roman Empire the dead bodies of all except suicides were burned.

The Greeks sometimes buried their dead in tJie g^round, but more generally cremated them, in imitation of the Romans.

In India, up till within the last few years, the wife, either according to her wishes or otherwise, was cremated on the same funeral pyre that converted her dead husband's remains into ashes.

When a child dies in Greenland the natives bury a live dog with it, the dog to be used by the child as a guide to the other world. When ques- tioned with regard to this peculiar superstition, they will only answer : " A dog can find his way anywhere."

A Railway Accident.

Early on the morning of the 2nd of November, 1892, the East Coast south express, leaving Edinburgh at 10.20 on the previous night, ran into a goods train which was about to be shunted at Manor House siding, three miles north of Thirsk. The train, which consisted of the second portion of the express, was made up of sixteen vehicles, and carried up- wards of 100 passengers.

The force of the collision must have been tremen- dous. The guard's van of the goods train was completely smashed and the guard himself in- stantly killed. The en- gine and tender of the express were overturned and wrecked, several of the carriages in the front part of the train shat- tered, and the end of the Pullman car driven in, while the wreckage caught fire either from the engine furnace or from the ignition of the gas used to light the train. Altogether ten persons, including two railway servants, were killed on the spot, and about ten were injured, some of them very seriously.

It seems that, owing to pressure of traffic, it was necessary to divide the express into two parts, one following the other as soon as possible. The first to leave passed Thirsk in safety. The collision occurred about 4 a.m., and many of the passengers were asleep.

GARDENING FOR THE MONTH.

Sow early frame peas and mazagan beans in the second week for an early crop. _ Protect endive, celery, artichoke, and sea-kale with stable litter or ferns. Mulch asparagus with hot-bed manure ; take up endive, late cauliflower, early broccoli, and lettuces, and lay them in an open shed, or in old cucumber or melon pits, which will protect them from frost, and afford a supply during winter. Plant all sorts of fruit-trees in fine weather — the earlier in the month the better. Commence and carry on the various

operations of pruning and nailing when the weather permits. Plant dried tubers of bordered flowers, but the finer sorts had better be de- ferred till spring. Protect such half hardy plants as were not sheltered last month. Place deciduous trees and shrubs as long as the ir veather continues favourable, and before the j soil has parted with the solar heat absorbed during summer. This is the reason why early ,1 autumn planting is so strongly recommended by \ all practical men.

TERRIBLE ACCIDENT TO THE SCOTCH EXPRESS AT THIRSK.

A Quiet End.

^

•^ R. JOSEPH BLACK, the eminent chemist, CeX called by Fourcy "the Nestor of the chemis- try of the eighteenth century," had a remarkably peaceful end. Being at table with his usual fdre, some bread, a few prunes, and a measured quantity of milk diluted with water, and having the cup in his hand, when the last stroke of the pulse was to be given, he appeared to have set it down on his knees, which were joined together, and in the action expired without spilling a drop, as if an experiment had been purposely made to evince the facility with which he departed.

Salutations in the East.

Various modes of salutation are practi«;ed by the Moslems. " Among these," says Mr. G. W. Lane, " the following are the more common or more remarkable : —

I. Placing the right hand upon the breast. 2. Touching the lips and the forehead or turban (or the forehead or turban only) with the right hand. 3. Doing the same, but slightly inclining the head during the action. 4. The same as the pre- ceding, but inclining the body also. 5. As above, but previously touching the ground with the right hand. 6. Kissing the hand of the person to whom the obeisance is made. 7. Kissing his sleeve. 8. Kissing the skirt of his clothing. 9. Kissing his feet. 10. Kissing the carpet or ground before him.

''The first five are often accompanied by the salutation, ' Peace be on you ! ' to which the reply is, ' On you be peace and the mercy of God and His bless'ngs ! '

"The sixth mode is observed by servants or pupils to masters, by the wife to the husband, and by children to their father, and sometimes to their mother."

But suddenly the room g rowed still. While God's white sunshine seemed to fill The dark place with agleavi 0/ life. An' o'er the dead she bent— Jim' s wife ! An' with her lips close, close to his. As tho' he knew an' felt the kiss, She sobbed — a totiching sight to see — ''Ah ! Jim was always good ter me : "

Not Playing this Time.

The little boy had come in with his clothes torn,

his face scratched, and his hair full of dust.

^^ " Oh, Willie, Willie ! " exclaimed his mother.

How often have I told you not to play with that wicked Stapleford boy ! "

" Mamma," said Willie, " do I look as if I had been playing with anybody ? "

A Poet's Funeral.

On the afternoon of the 1 2th of October, 1892, in the presence of a vast and eminently representa- tivegathering of mourners the mortal remains of the late Lord Tennyson were solemnly laid to rest in Poets' Corner, Westmin- ster Abbey, amid every token of the affectionate reverence and sincere admiration, both of the sovereign and the whole nation.

The dense crowd that thronged every corner of the Abbey which was open to the public, and the still larger masses of people that lined the ap- proaches to its gates, formed one of the most impressive and most touching features in the spectacle. Within the Abbey the intense solem- nity of the whole cere- mony was due to the entire absence of all effort at effect. The character and the deeply reverential attitude of the congregation, the majesty of the great church, the associations and _ the memories that linger round it, the glorious music and the magnificent language of the liturgy wrought the strange spell of this most stately and heroic burial.

One exceptional fea- ture, indeed, there was in the arrangements, which all men felt to be most moving and most meet. The Union Jack com- pletely covered the coffin, an eloquent emblem of " the feeling of the be- loved Queen, and the nation and the Empire he loved so dear."

GARDENING FOR THE MONTH.

Sow a few peas and beans, as in November. Very few operations can be carried on this month, with the exception of trenching and digging in dry weather — operations which should by all means be attended to. The ground should be thoroughly well turned up for exposure to the frost and snow. Plant all sorts of fruit-trees in mild weather. Mulch over the roots of tender trees, such as apricot and peach, as they are often so far affected by frost as to be barren in the coming year. Proceed with pruning and nailing wall trees

whenever an opportunity occurs. Examine the fruit that is in the storeroom every week, and re- move all that is found to be in a state of decay. As to the flower garden, the directions for last rnonth will be found equally applicable to this. Draining is an operation that may be carried on this month ; it greatly improves all wet soils, especially those of a clayey character. Flower-beds, etc., on such soils should be drained, for the soil, by being re- lieved of the superfluous water, admits warm air and showers more readily.

FUNKRAL OF LORU TENNYSON.

The Great Game of China.

^_^

'^HE great game of China is the game of ^ Wei-chi. It is considered by the Chinese far superior to their chess, which is but shghtly different from ours, and to be the special game of the literary class, while the military men amuse themselves with chess.

Wei-chi possesses interesting features, and re- quires great skill in playing. It has for us the merit of absolute novelty, because it differs es- sentially from all Western games.

Unlike chess or draughts, the men are never taken, but remain where they are played. The game is not a series of skilful evolutions, but a successive occupation of points which, joined together, give a final winning position.

Though the game is on a very extensive scale, the board containing 361 places, and the men employed being nearly 200 a side, still it is very simple in principle, all the men having the same value and the same powers.

To achieve the object of the game on such an extensive board requires great foresight and pro- found calculation. This object is to occupy as much space on the board as possible. He who at the end of the game commands most places has won.

This can be carried out in two ways— by en- closing empty spaces on the board with a certain number of one's men, and by surrounding and capturing the enemy's men.

Chinese Emperors have been very fond of the game, though it subjects them to the necessity of forgetting their rank, and those who play with the Emperor sit in his presence.

It is recorded of an Emperor of the fourth century that on one occasion he made a move irregularly. The courtier who was playing with him held the Monarch's finger, and the Emperor was not offended. This was thought important enough to be mentioned in history.

The Alternative.

iTATrE was a speculator, and for a year past ^~^t^ nothing had been coming his way except expenses.

One day his daughter informed him in an un- feeling manner that if he did not give her a dia- mond tiara worth at least seven hundred and fifty dollars she would elope with the coachman.

" Come to my arms, my darling child," he exclaimed, as the tears of joy coursed down his wrinkled cheeks ; "come to my arms."

" Do I get the tiara?" she asked, hesitating.

" Of course not," he smiled delightedly ; "you get the coachman. I owe him eight months' wages."

That ended it.

Notes on the Tongue.

' ' THE boneless tongue, so small and weak, Can crush and kill," declared the Greek.

" The tongtie destroys a greater horde" The Turk asserts^ " thafi does the sword."

The Persian proverb wisely saith, " A lengthy tongue — an early death."

Or scmetinres takes this form instead,

" Don't let your tongue cut offyo7ir head"

" The tongue can speak a •word whose speed," Says the Chinese, ''' outstriJ>s the steed."

While Arab sages this impart,

" The tongue's great storehouse is the heart."

From Hebrew wit the maxim sprung,

" Tfwughfeet should slip, ne'er let the tongue"

The sacred writer crowns the whole, " Who keeps his tongue doth keep his soul." Rev. Philip Burroughs Strong,
