your complaint. But some men never

of recret and envy are mere mockerv;
safe in the possession of pray liairs and
couty toes, they know they can trifle with
me a they please.
I can scarcely bear to divulge my secret j
to those who do not know me and it, but
I must. My curse is this. 1, a man of
4 1. a hiisliaud, the father of a great lout I
of a lad n:id a pawky girl, a priest in
holy order and a bachelor of divinity, ,
have the face, the figure, the voice, and j

healthy, lower school boy. My cheeks are '
pink and smooth; my hair l jellowand
roach and plenty of it; my waist is slim,
my liack is flat; 1 walk with a springy
Ftep: at times' involuntarily I rim, and 1
lielicve I still could lieat any alto in my
old st.1i.hi1 choir. j
It was not till after I left Oxford that I
liecatno conscious of my almctioii. At
pollesi many of us do like buy, and act ',
like Iwvs too. My post was naturally the !
pleas;iiit one of cox of the college eight, and
although raftmeii and tuirgees guffawed
privily when I came down to the tm.it.
and little Imjsfrom the towjiath mimicked
my shrill. imiK-rative voice, still I was
-tted and Jnipular, R-s cox is by virtue of
Ids ofllcc. and I was happy. They carried
me shoulder high round the ijuad and
placed me on thu table at "wines" to plw
my treble songs, and, if I felt like a tit
mouse lteside thegiantsof my crew. 1 was
but fulfilling my steersman's mission.
Those, indeed, were golden days. Hut
from the time I "announced a determina
tion to take orders, trouble grew up
around me. Tutors said they doubted if
1 should have "enough influence;" clergy
men, to whom I applied for a title, seemed
skeptical of my ".seriousness" and when
1 called on the examining chaplain to the
bishop of my choice and explained the ol
ject of my visit, the good man looked puz
zled, but smiled kindly and asked with a
surtoiit point de zele air if I didn't think
1 hail better not have troubled to come to
him till I was within more measurable
distance of tha earliest age for ordinal ion.
And at that moment I was 24.
At that time, indeed, I knew I looked
lwyish: but then I often felt bojish, ami
not being a vain peacock, I gave little
critical study to my appearance; vanity is
not my besetting sin, aud in those days 1
did not stare gloomily in the glass for the
purpose of detecting some hope, some
promise of age, or, indeed, for any
other purpose. Though below the
middle height, I am not a dwarf, and
as yet the awful conviction of the truth
had not forced itself upon me. I did not
know how childlike a front I presented.
At last, however, I obtained a curacy in .1
parish, where we liad a fine old church, a
considerable choir, and several other
curate, and, finding my vicar kindly, and
his wife ioitiely anectionate, 1 settled
down to my work and looked forward to
a liappy and beneficent life. Within a
week my hopes were crushed. There
In-fell me a calamity which has left me
cur since a blighted and dispirited iK-ing
I had but just lieen ordained, and 1 was
M-. y full of the solemnity and the dignity
of my new posjtiyu. We had just finished
a wedding in hinnble life, and about half
mi hour wa to elac before matins. I
had taken a snlwnlinate iart in indls
solubly voking a liashful country lass
to a very lienniscd looking gaby from the
plow tail, and wa waiting in my
surplice for the service iu which I was, so
tosjieak, to make a "first appearance.'
The weather wa hot, and I laid aside my
stole and hood for awhile; for I was a
proud and cureful of their untarnished
rustling glory a a mother of her llrt
1iun; and I stood at the vestry door chat
ting to my vicar and two of my fellow-i-unitcs,
who were making their mvstical
toilet within. On a sudden I beard a very
heet girl's voice saying, "Oh, 1 do wish
I could make out this window there
should lie some one to explain it," and
looking down the church I saw otie stout
-lderly lady and two slim young ones ex
amining a window of Ananias and Sapphi
ra. I looked again at the girl, and oh,
Joy' I recognized two fair Americans who
luul apteared in Oxford during my lat
term there and had lieen the objects of my
passionate and heart stricken devotion.
Never had 1 forgotten them. Cajolery
and intri4iie h.ul once brought me into
the same room with them, but l-efore I
could find an opirtunity for an introduc
tion lliey were gone, and I saw them no
more. Now was my time. Straight I
rrlpjied down the steps of the ct ancel and
presented myself K-fore them lit; a knight
errant, as I thought, coming to deliver a
distressed maiden. "You would like to
know what the subject of the window iv"
1 asked blandly. "It is very old glass
and very quaint; allow me to explain it."
und I sailed ilnently on. "Dear me"'
cried the elder lady presently, when I
cainc to a pause, "how interesting! What
a very liappy idea to have the church
shown in this way, i.nd what very nice
choristers there are here; so intelligent
and well liehaved!" I thought this rather
irrelevant and was puzzled, tint all
praise of the chun h just then was
honey to me. and I said complacently,
"Ye", the choir i very good; we take great
pain, and great attrition i paid to dis
cipline "' Whv the .iiii 1Ums should

1 iaued, intending, before we parted, to
make some .-illusion to having met them ill
Oxford. The elderl lady, however, mis
took me. She sto-H-d at the foot of the
steps, where her head wa still slmhtly
almve mine, and bringing her hand out of
her vkct. where she had N-en fumbling,
slipicd a half crown into my ialm and
said. "There, my little man. that will do.
jou've got u all very nicely, now I must
just give jonone kiss, my dear." and with
that 1. yes I. was kissed publicly on my
own chain cl steps, under my own rood
screen. In-fore the eyes of my own pastor
and Ilock. "Oh, yes! dear little fellow,"
cried the young ladles, "he is so pert and
cunning." and they too kissed me witli
great goodwill 1 stood with flaming
cheeks anil mouth ngaH the half crown
still iu my hand, watching them as they
complacently retreated dowu the aisle.
Then, when they had disappeared, roused
bv the titter il ladies and the guffaws of
my fellow clergy at the vestry door. I tied
hastily and buried by blushes among the
registers and surplices of the vestry.
It was useless to remain in that jiarish.
The conduct of the congregation next
Sunday, when I stepjied forth to read the
lesson, proved that to demonstration. Of
course such a story had spread like wild
tire. The church was crammed, and when
iu reading almut David, who was "niddy
mi,l withal of a lieaiitifiil countenance," I
came to the wonls, "lyjok not on his
countenance or on the height of Ills stat
ure," there arose such a stilled laughter
ns sounded like the wind among dry
leaves. I stopped short, consumed with
shame and mortification, unable to sec the
lxxik for tears, and then, with an astute
ness I did not know I ixissesscd, judi
ciously fainted away and was borne out
like a child in the arms of the basso
blacksmith.
It wa a skillful stroko and might have
retrieved me, but 1 could not brook to re
main there longer, lly the assistance of
the archdeacon and the consent of the
bishop, who tned hard not to laugh while
he gave it. 1 was transferred to another
county Hut though no like blow- fell on
me there, I saw the attempt was useless.
Did I go to school to catechise or exhort
the boys, my presence was a signal for
disorder As a matter of course my au
thority was disregarded. Girls chatted
under my nose, boys extract ed from
dirty breeches pockets pegtops and
toffee liefore my very eyes, and even
looked to me for encouragement, and if
the master was forcwl to (time to the
rescue mid cauealad. the ingenuous youth
would apinal to me, with an air that said
as plain as wonls, "Come, you know what
alley tor are? Why don't you mit a stop
to tiii grown up tyranny'1 Have you no
fellow feeling" At baptisms mothers re
fused to let me officiate upon the bawling !
infant, vowing "they weren't agoin' to let I
that theer careless ly play no tricks with
the blessed baby." My ministration pro
voked hilarity at funerals, and nine an i
irate virago, with whom I was e.xiotu
lating on the wickedne of her ways, ,
soused me neck and crop, clerical hat and i
all, into her soapsuds and xvashtub. I
With much pain I dropped my holy I
calling. Marriage and a literary life ab
sorbed some years. I strove heaven
knows how earnestly to correct the vice '
of my appearance, but the more I nd- l
vanced in life the more absurd matters !
grew Occasional glimis.es of hiieoiilyj
proved delusive and plunged me back ;
again into a darker despair. If I have I
tried one intent infallible whisker pro- (
ducer I have tried twenty. I have lieen a .
mine of wcalt'i to liarbers. Fluids that '
would make an elm plank sliaggy simply '
make my cheek look chapped. Many a !
time have I gone to rest diuilvd with !
pomade, only to find in the morn-1
ing that it liad lied from my chin iu :
the night to seek a more hojn-ful
ground on the pillow. Once a slight !
downy efilores-cence made its appearance
under my jaw, and for days I was almost j
delirious with joy, and walked the streets I
with my chin in the air to show my 1
manly lieard. Alas' like Jonah's gourd,
it withered in one night, as it grew. Sud
denly it dropied off and left my face hair-
less as the sole of ray foot. At 40 I still
looked like 14.
Hut though I looked as If time had
stood still with me, iu fact it has made
as pod haste as with other folks. My
wife is half as tall again as I, aud twice
ns heavy. When 1 give her niyarmslie
puts her fingers into my armpit, and ik-o-ple
are ceasing to take her for my
mother and think I am her grandchild. I
am blest with a hopeful young family, a
boy alula bony, awkward girl, who looks
already over the crown of my head and
has to stoop down to kiss me. The boy I
do think an extraordinary creature, lie
is not more tlian 111, but he looks as much
older than his age as I, so to speak, l(Nk
younger than mine. He i tall and
burly, and has a mighty mature and
lumpili look. The brard which fate
has denied me adorns him, and with a
double iiortion, and, now that his voice
has broken and settled itself into n. kind
of hoarse bray, bojish Is the last word to
apply to him.
I took him down the other day to Harl
borough school to enter him there. My
railway journey was neither more
nor less of a misery to me tlian
usual. An economically minded ticket
lnlcctor remarked consideraUly to
niv son, "I'd have iiassed him
with n half ticket, sir' You needn't have
got a whole 'tin." 1 went to the refresh
ment room and asked for n four of whisky.
The young lady behind the liar leant over
and cried. "Oh! you horrid little Uiy' I
shan't give you nothing but a glass of
milk and a bun. not if you was ever so.
To tnink of the likes of you wanting fours
of Scotch, iiJeed!" and a burly country
man standing by smote me on the liack
till I choked, and"gnfr.-wed. "Haw' Haw!
Thee'rt a good 'mi. I loikes thy cheek,
little chop," and in trying to force on mo
a drink of hi ln-er contrived to Hiur
some half pint intoiiiy no kand waistcoat
and then cursed me for his own clumsi
ness The lmokstall man treated inewith
iiolite indifference and paid no more at
tention to me than to a spaniel. Finally,
when a grim old lady gat into our slack
nig carnage sue nxcu me mm a stony eye
and said. "Ohl you nasty little lmyl
Miioking at your age! Where do you ex-I-ct
to n. to' ' and proceeded to take my
I pijie away from me; while the other ias
sengers said, -'Well, he is too young to lie
smoking, for sure," and that lout of a son
lot mine went black in the face with
I laughter and declined to come to the
I rescue.
llnrllKirough was reached at last, and
i we walked up to the headmaster's house.
1 Withsomedilliculty and two half crowns I
j induced the incredulous butler to usher us
' In. and having gU rid of his first notion
that it was, as he said. "a 'oax," I found
, I hail cast out the first devil only to have
1 a more wicked one take his place: for
' now he winked jocosely and liade us
"come this way, young genle'meil," and
actually imked me in the ribs before g'-
ing round the screen n"' ushering: u into
'the thetor's prescme. 1 was wild with
j wrath at the indignity. "IWor," said
I I, fiercely and shrilly. "I lnnst protest. I
I insUt, sir." He glared at me haughtily,
and then, turning to my lout. said. "Is
! tills some farce If. sjr. a I siipKse,
j you are bringing your little brother to en-
i U-r him at the school, let me say that we
have the means," and he swished his
hand through the air, "of correcting that
unbridled and insubordinate demeanor
which the loss, no doubt, of a father, and
the absence of parental control, has in
duced in him. I see," said he, as the
gaby turned crimson and shuffled from
one foot to the other, "your brother's

with this tirade 1 tiling out of the room in
a rage, and my son slunk out at my heels.
I was speechless with furv till we got
some distance from the house. Then,
looking up, I saw that my wretched Imy
was sniggering still, and iu my uiortillca
tion 1 struck him with my cane. There
were sev eral of theladsalniut.and he, jnmr
fellow, was high mid mighty in his new
tail coat, and he felt the indignity. He
lost his temiKT, as I had lost mine, and,
turning on me. he Imxed my ears. This
was too much To what depth of con
tempt MUsl I have fallen! I dropjnnl on
n ln-nch and burt into tears the bitter
est tears. I think, that ever man shed.
I gave him money and sent him home
alone, and then I wandered away iu inde
scribable wretcheduess. I was blind to
all that passed; I neither saw nor cared
where I went. 1 could not even pursue
one train of thought, however miserable.
Not that nny oblivion came mercifully to
relicv e me f rom my sufferings. I passed
through moment after moment of exqui
site pain, but each seemed Isolated, and to
lie endured by itself seiarately, and with
out any continuity with either the mo
ments that went In-fore or those which
followed after How the time went I do
not know, but after what 1 thought was a
great while I found myself sitting by a
dull, dark stream, staring gloomily into it.
I do not know- what was passing through
my mind: pcrhaiis no settled thought had
formed itself; but I was in a very abyss of
despair. Suddenly I felt a little hand
thrust Into mine, and a clilld kissed me.
I looked up and saw n village girl of 7 or
S years old, very plain but for a pair of
wistful eyes, who gazed pitifully at mc
and said, "I'oo lmy!" From her lips 1 did
not wince at the reproach of youth. Slow ly
I came out of the dark mood In w hich I was
ready for 1 know not what rash act; and
in talking to the little girl, and feeling
her hand confidingly in mine, I gradually
found couiiMtstire and resignation. She
was very shy, and even stupid, and, when
I got her to sin-nk, her voice was coarse,
and she talked iu a v illaiuoiisly provincial
accent; but still, by her mute kindliness
and fellow feeling, she had saved me from
what I dared not contemplate, and I owed
her a debt of gratitude which I could not
pay.
Alas) these milder moments were not
for long. At last I reached home, and
found the lniy, who had preceded me, had
told his story from his own point of view,
and iny whV, in'rhajis rightly, took hi
lart. "I suppose." she said with stately
censure, "1 suppose it is Useless to lnn
that you are asharaeil of y ourself, but 1
nm ashamed of you. Xb wonder you look
siicli a baby when you give way to such
childish tempers. At your age to mind
what you look like! You don't act like a
man and yon don't deserve to In- treated
like one. And to strike the rnr boy ln
fore the whole school! Oh, it was too
liad!"
I daresay it was; but it was not dis
creet to tell me so, and she does lut know
what I feel. Her chiding has brought
luck all my old bitterness and gloom,
and I think if I were now on that river
kink ngain. not even the little girl would
save me. Hut men are weak, and for the
present, for wnnt of a convenient way
over to the other side, 1 must stay on this
and abide my life ns best I can. When I
am gone, if 1 go, this narrative may per
haps lead a few to think not too harshly

Tlie Chines (Juartrr In New York.
Ill 1875 there were but about ISO China
men in New York. The Chinatown of
the present was a very insignificant col
ony, and a queue seen on the streets
created a sensation, at least among the
Rinks of the small Iniys downtown. Now J
there are fully !,XK) Celestials in this city.
They are doing well in various lines of
bu-ines, and there are a large number of
them who have Iwnk accounts running
into thou-muls and tens of thousands of
dollars. In fact there are at least two
Chinese merchants in Mott street who each
own considerably over $100,000 iu prnjierty
and money. It was not until 18T5 tliat
the Chinese took possession of Mott street.
At tliat time the six companies of San
Francisco, which practically controlled the
Chinese population of that city, established
an agency iu this once fashionable street.
As new arrivals from the flowery king
dom appeared on the scene they settled
down in this spot and Chinatown waxed
and grew- strong, until it became what it
now is, a veritable city within a city, hav
ing its own iminieipal government and iu
most matters making laws suiting itself,
and growing in strength oblivious of Un
political and social amenities of the great
city around it- The Chinese evidently ln--lieve

he rightly thinks that there can lie little

Mr. Calton is dear iqion the important
question of the heredity of teniK'r; ho
says it is "as hereditary" as any other
quality:"
"I have forty-three cases where both
parents are recorded a ginnl tempered
and twenty-live where they were both bad
tempered. Out uf the children of the
former ill) JH-r cent were good teliiiered
and 10 jn-r cent. Uid; out of the latter 4
percent, were gmnl and 52 percent, bad
temjiered. This is emphatic testimony to
the heredity of temper "
And he attempted, with still more suc
cess, to answer the universe question- Do
g;l tempered families of brothers and
sister have, on the whole, gmnl temjiered
ancestors, and bad vvininTrd families bad
tctnin-red one? A gmnl tenqn'red family
he defines for the purpose as one in which
at least two inemln-rs were gmnl tcniierl
and none w ere bad, and a bad tempered
family as one iu which at least two iiiem-In-rs
were kid temin-red, whether or not
any case of good temjn-r were said to be
associated with them, and. as regards an
cestors, h.-takes the two iareuis'aud the
uncle and aunts on lmth side as the most
trustworthy group. On this Mr. Gallon
says:
I have firty-ix gornl teinin-nnl families,
with an aggregate of 55C1 parent, uncles
and aunt, mid seventy-one Iwd tempered
families, with (KKJ iiarent. uncle. and
aunts. In the former group St! nrr cent,
were gmnl tenqn-ied and 18 liad; in the
latter group 18 were good tempered and
20 were kid, the remainder being neutral.
More briefly weay that when the family
is good tenqn-nnl a almve defined the
nunilierof gnl tempered parents, uncles
and aunts exceeds that of the had tem
pered in the proportion of three to two,
and that when tlie family is liad tcuqn-red
the proportions are exactly reversed."

The earliest iw of the Hag at sea was
merely as a signal, waved to the right or
left, without distinction 'of color or na
tionality Down to a comparatively late
period it was not the Hag, but the figure
head that was the emblem, the carved
image of the prow, of which Herodotus
gives us an instance in the wild boar of
the Samians, sawn off on defeat by the
jKginetans and deposited in the temple of
Minerva. No naval standard, similar to
those we have written of in use on shore,
have ln.-n discovered among the Kgyi
tians or Assyrians; either their sails were
embroidered with different emblems, or
tlagllke streamers, something like the
liargeinan's whiff, were displayed In-low
the staff The liomaiis had their rostra,
as all the world knows, among whom,
markedly in consequence of their univer
sal conquest on land, the art of naval war
gradually died out. and, as Mr Ijiughtou
writes (to whose lecture on the "Heraldry
of the Sea" we are much indebted), "any
tlags (nrrieil by ships then or for long
after were proluibly as mere ornaments,
emblems of religion or suin-rstitioii. of
personal vanity or party triumph."

The French housekeeper delights in her
after dinner cigarette. The senora of
Harccloua loves in the evening to wrap her
black crepe around her head, and while
gently puffing her long tokicco cigarette

her cigarette, or even cigar, and the lliis
sian wife is not far ln-hind her in her en
joyment of the weed, and even the
Japanese, Chinese, Tartar, Dutch and
Soudanese wives all like to let tobacco
smoke curl from their pretty mouths
toward the sky, the Italian signora is, n-r-haps,
the most ia.!onalely fond of thu
long thin cigar of the country called the
"Virginia." It is no uncommon sight of
a summer evening to see a party of ladies
s'oting in some cool terrace overlooking
the sen on the Cainpagna, while the music
of their velvety language keeps tune to the
soil splashing of the sea against the nn-ky
shore, and send rings of smoke from thoir
fragrant cheroots. Albany Journal.

much cash At the end of the month the

were professionally known as "snakes."
It so h.-qiH-ned on one incasion that thc
bank examiner pud his official visit when
t here were in the draw er "'snakes" amount

was louqnlled to confess that he often
advaiued money to thedcrks m tin man

amiiier, for it emoiirage extravagance,
mid i liable in uet you into trouble with

cashier a venerable gentleman since de
ceasetl approached the paying teller and
asked what wa meant by the term
"snakes'" vi hich he had overheard Used in
the conversation with the examiner.
There was nothing left him but to explain
the whole matter, which he did by telling
how the young gentlemen in the kink
had gotten In-htiiilhmiil in their finance
and were foned to negotiate short loans
each month.
"And this is leally the condition of our
young meii" remarked the cashier.
"I am sorry to say yes."
"How mini, of thisp:qicr is there in the
drawer?"
"AiKint $-:oo."
"So much as that? I.et me see the
paiier."
The little due bills were handed him,
mid he walked into hi private office. Iu
a few minutes he came out with a check
in his hand. It was his personal chirk for
the full amount of the "snakes." Said
he:
"I'ut this in the drawer. 1 will give
these young men a ( Imnce," and he tore
into small pieces the numerous due hills
"They are now free; and let them keep so.
Don't advance any more money. Here
after 1 w ill loan it out of my private funds.
What they owe now is cninvled."
It look nkiut five minutes for this little

A f.ital mistake. At the time Dr. Vance.
of Cleveland, performed the operation on
the ladv for the removal of a cancer ot me
stomach he found when too late that the
poor woman had no cancer to be removed.
The disease was indigestion, and If she had
taken the Shaker Extract of Knots (Siegel's
Syrup) that awful distress at the pit of the
stomach, which made the doctors think she
had cancer, would have been removed. Dis
tress after eatintr. dull, heavy feeling in
the head, with pains in tlie side and back
all vanish after using this wonderful rem
edy. The tired, languid feeling gives place
to strength and vigor.
