C.,| January 3rd 18b7.) Christmas passed quietly with us. No whiskey to drink one could not ex pect more. The holy day was a beautiful one, and everyone wore pleasant faces de spite the hard times and high taxa tion that as I sect o many com plain ing of The Red Branch Sunday School en joyed a fine X mas tree, and the chil drens hearts were made glad by theii presents. Miss Thoodoeia Watson and Feddit MeKerly spent a pleasant visit at Mr. G. L. Tools and returned home de lighted with our town. Rev. J. A.

When we reached the opposite side of the bridge we noticed about a dozen men advancing from Na poleon’s army on horseback, bearing flags of truce. Our army, which, all told, did not exceed 20,000 men, came to a halt. The men on horseback advanced and the cen ter one of the group proved to be Napole on himself. At sight of him Ney ahd his staff dismounted. Napoleon also dis mounted and was warmly er raced by Ney and his officers. Of course a shout in honor of Napoleon went up from om ranks. Well, history has recorded the rest. We were forced to combine with Napoleon’s army of boys between the ages of 10 and 20 years and go on to Waterloo and defeat.”—Father Neyron in Chicago Tribune. How to Use Pianos in Summer Time. In the hot weather a piano should not be placed in a damp room or left open in a draft of air, for dampness is the most dangerous enemy. It causes the strings and tuning-pins to rust and the cloth used in the construction of the keys of action to swell, whereby the mechanism will move siugg'Shly or often stick together. Continued dampness will also injuriously affect the varnish and raise the soft fibers of the sounding-board, thus forming ridges. Extreme heat is scarcely less in jurious. A piano should be closed when not in use, in order to prevent the ac cumulation of dust, pins, etc., on the sounding board, and yet it should be opened occasionally and daylight allowed to strike the keys; otherwise the ivory may turn yellow. An India rubber or cloth cover should protect the instrument from bruises or scratches. Moths may be kept out of a piano by a lump of cam phor wrapped in soft paper placed in the insMe cover. A new piano should be tuned at least once every two or three- months during the first year, and at longer intervals thereafter.—New York Mail and Express. % . • Profits of the Dook Trade. The public being level-hea led in busi ness affairs, it is not surprising that out of five millions of readers on ly five thou sand at the utmost are willing to pay $1.50 for what should not cost over 50 cent. The trade are well satisfied with such small sales, since the “get up” of a $1.30 novel does not cost more than 20 cents a copy, or $1,000 for 5,000 copies; for these the pub lic pays $7,500 or a clear profit of $0,500 on the $1,000 invested. Of this profit the au thor receives only $750, the remaining $5,750 are what the trade make out of his brains, time aud labor. To get the same amount of profit out of a 50-cent edition the trade would be obliged to handle nearly 30,000 copies; but then the author’s royalty, if only ten cents a copy, would be nearly $3,000; a fact of no concern to the trade, so long a* they can make as much out of 5,000 cop ies at $1.50. as out of 8 >,000 at 50 cents.— Cor. Philadelphia Times. Immature Meat i* Unwholesome. Immature meat is unhealthy for two reasons; first, it contains no nourishing elements, and consequently only relieves the symptom of hunger without actually recuperating the system; second, it is ex tremely indigestible, rolling np into massses in the stomach, and not disente grating, like the fibrous flesh from older animals. A child’s stomach is quite un able to cope with a piece of bob veal; in its violent efforts to remove the offending substance nature not infrequently re moves the little sufferer. Bob veal is the meat of a calf under four weeks old; the great bulk of that seized in New York, however, is from a few hours to three days old.—Dr. Cyrus Ed son in the Forum.

Hubbard, of Connecticut though not well known outside the state except to the bar of the country, was re garded as one of the most brilliant minds that state has ever produced of recent years. He was a very able lawyer aud a most delightful orator. His son inherits neither these tastes nor capacities. He is a brisk little business man and buys and eells stocks on ’Change. Hawley, Ed munds, Sherman, Coukling, now or lately of the senate, have not sons. Conkling unquestionably inherits some of his gifts. Ills father. Judge Coukling, was an able man. Plait, who is not a conspicuous senator but is regarded by his colleagues as a very able man, has a f»on who, though a fair average lawyer, is not thought to possess Ids father’s abilities. Mr. Evarts has a large family of sons. Some are ia business, one is a lawyer, one in the church, hut though some of them physi cal.y suggest iho father none seem to have inherited from him exceptional powers of mind. Mal.one, who certainly in tome respects has had a remuAcable career ant! is unquestionably a man of force, has a son for whom he lias cherished fne.st ardent hopes, but who has sadly shattered them thus far.
