JACK'S REFORMATION. Jack was full of clams and beer. The beer was nothing new in Jack's experi ence, but the clams were something of a novelty to him. He had been spend ing the day at Glen Island, and had partaken so freely of both the solid and the liquid that he was puzzled as to which to attribute his unsteady gait. It was 1 o'clock in the morning. He had just left the elevated railroad and was zigzagging homeward with his white hat on the back of his head and Ins hands in his pockets, singing softly to himself; The man in the moon is looking,love; lie's winking,love,- he's blinking,love; And each little star will tell Here Jack ran against a tree and lost the thread of his song. After recover ing his hat,which had rolled in the gut ter, Jack resumed his journey, and turniug up a quiet side street climbed up a front stoop and sat down upon the topmost step. The moon was shining brightly and paling the street lamps. The horizon was let up with a glow like that of a prairie fire, and the chimneys across the way stood out black and dis tinct against the glowing background. From far down the street he could hear a party of serenaders singing an old song which sounded familiar to him. Jack was beginning to get sobered. He put his hollowed hand behind his ear and listened. Y'es, although he could not hear the words, the serenaders were so far away, he could supply them him self : There's a heart heating for somebody, Lighting the home lie loves best. Warming the hosoui of somebody— Warming the bosom of somebody, oh ! and the "oh" came wafted down the Street in a tuneful little cadence winch died awav like a sob in the distance. The song brought to Jack's remem brance an old-fashioned farmhouse on a Vermont hillside. There were horse hair chairs in the room and a picture of Washington and his family on the wall. In the corner stood a little melodeon with squeaky bellows, the complaining of which he could hear even now through all the intervening years. Be fore the melodeon sat a voung girl whose blue scarf matched the color of her eyes and who was playing the very tune he had just heard. The "oh !" at the end of the song came softly to liim out of the past and it seemed to Jack to have something of regret in it. Jack took oil his hat and ran his hands through his hair. lie lapsed into remi niscence again,and remembered how he had married the blue-eyed girl and brought her to the big roaring city ; how the babies had come one after a nolher until they had three; how his lit tle woman's eyes had lost some of their lustre from weeping .and how he stayed out late o' nights drinking beer when he should have been home looking after the welfare of his wife and babies. By this time Jack was thoroughly sobered aud repentant. He felt in his pocket for his latchkey, but the key wasn't there. He didn't care to ring the bell, because he was afraid of his wife's au ger. The window had been left up be cause the night was warm.but he thrust his hands between the blind slats and tried to undo the fastening. A low growl made him withdraw his hand quickly. Then it occurred to him that it was only his setter dog, and he whistled softly to the dog and the ani mal whined a recognition. After strug gling with the fastening until he suc ceeded in unfastening the window he lodged on the window sill when he tried to climb in, and, loaded as he was, teet ered back and forth, at the imminent risk of tumbling into the stone base ment below. At last he rolled into the room with a thump which shook the whole house. He had just gathered up his bruised body and placed it upon the sofa when the door opened and his wife . made her appearance. 'So you've returned, have vou,' said she sarcastically, while her eyes blazed like ardent coals. 'The baby is sick with the croup up-stairs, but of course you don't care anything about ttiat. We might all be taken down with the cholera and you wouldn't know any thing about it. I suppose you've had a very pleasant time to-day with yoar friends, and are as drunk as usual. This thing has gone on as long as it is possible to last. Get down. Rover. I could curse you, sir. Even the dog is a better protector than you are. I hate you. That's what I think of you.' and she struck him a blow in the face with the fiat of her band which made his head ring. 'Oh, you deceitful wretch, if I bad a pistol I would shoot you,' siie continued. Jack gritted his teeth together and clenched his hands. lie half arose from the sofa, and then his good sense prevailed and he resumed his seat. The door closed with a bang behind his wife and he was left alone in the room with the dog. •Old fellow,' said Jack, taking the dog's silky ears in his hands and look ing down into the dog's brown eyes, 'old fellow, things is getting mighty warm around here, aren't they " The dog thumped his tail and emit ted a short bark. 'And somebody's to blame, eh, old fellow ?' The dog put his forepaws on Jack's knees and whined. 'The little woman exaggerates my weakness, but in the main she's about right. "What d'ye think V' The unfailing barometer of a dog's e moticn, his tail, played a tattoo on the floor aud he executed a dance on the parlor carpet inviting a frolic. 'No, Rover.there's no funny business about this. This affair is serious. There's got to be a refoi mation. You remember old man Luther had a refor mation, don't you ? Yes, I suppose you do. Well, here's what's going to reform; going to give up beer and clams and staying out nights. Back, old fel low, lie down in the corner,' said Jack, as he opened the door on a crack and listened. A faint sound as of sobbing came down the stairs. Jack closed the door and resumed his seat. 'lt's raining up-stairs. I'm afraid the little woman will gel wet. Now, I'm going to take off my shoes and see if the root leaks. You lie right down .beie in the corner and keep still till I come flown,' said Jack, speaking to the dog, who slunk off into the corner in a shamefaced way. Then Jack stole softly up stairs and peeped into the room, where sat his wife with her face hidden in the bed clothes. She wns sobbing violently and Jack's heart wns touched. Jack walked up to her and p'aced his hand upon her shoulder. 'Little woman,' said he. Louder sobs hut 110 answer. 'Little woman,' 110 resumed, trying to swallow his throat, 'l've been a big mute to you and the children, hut if you'll try to overlook what I've done in the past I'll try and do better in the fu ture.' 'Oh, Jack. 1 struck you 1' came from the hod-clothes In smothered accents. •Nevermind that, little woman. It didn't hurt me.' .lack sat down upon the side of the lied aud drew his wife upon lus knee. She hid her face upon his shoulder, just as she had often done in the olden limes in the house upon the Vermont hillside. 'Do you think you can give me an other chance 1" said Jack. •It was all mv fault, Jack, and I'm very sorry.' 'Well, we'll call it square then and start in again. What d'ye say V 'Ob, Jack I' was the only reply, and then there followed a sound which had someihingof sweetness and requital in it, and borne 011 the wind from half a mile away came the refrain : Warming the bosom of somebody,oh! Singing Themselves to Sleep. Mrs. Merriam Grant, one of the peo ple wounded in the C'hatsworth disas ter, was 111 the rear cat with her hus band. In this car was a party of six young people. In oider that they might sit together, Mr. and Mrs. Grant changed seats with a youncr man and his bride. Their courtesy saved their lives, for young people were killed. Mrs. Grant thought this party were theatric 11 people or concert singers, they were 90 jolly and sang so well. They could siug and they laughed and told stories aud anticipated the pleasure of the trip until late at night. Then Mrs. Grant composed herself in her chair and covered her fa;e with her handker chief to go to sleep. Nearly everybody iu the car was quiet except the jolly party of six About this time the young bride was requested to sing 'Nearer, My God, to Thee." Some thing iu the desiie to sleep and rest re called the dear old song. The young woman sang, and all listened while the train sped on. As the little gleam of devilish fire ap peared far down the track their voices swelled in ; "Yet iu my dreams I'd be Nearer my, God, to Thee." The speed of the train increased dowu the grade. Again the song swelled in : "There let tlio way appear, steps unto heaven." The way was already in sight. 'All that Thou sendest me in mercy given." And then, with but a moment of life left for each of them, even when poor Ed. M'Clintock's hand was giv ing its last desperate wrench to the engine, the singers sang to their God : "Angels to beckon me Nearer, my God, to Thee." Enough. It was finished. The en gines struck the frail bridge aud it sank. The car containing the singers crushed like a bolt of Jove through the two cars in fiont of it killing and grinding as a foot kills a worm. In the same instance another car crashed through it, and the singers were dead, —Springfield Republican. Care of a Tramp's Hands. "One of the essential points of suc cess in my profession," said a dilapida ted old tramp who was talking to a re porter from behind the bars of one of ihe cells in the city jails recently, "is to keep the hands in good order. You dou't understand what 1 mean, tli V What I mean hv keeping the hands in good order is this : Of course, in tramping from towu to town, a man is liable to be arrested foryagrancy at any time. lie must tell a story of how he has just been thrown out of work and is looking for employment, which, as yet. he has not been able to find. In nine cases out of ten the judge will ask bim to show up his hands, and wbtn he does produce them they must be horny and toilworn. Catch on, do you ? So you see it is a part of my busi ness to keep my hands looking as though they belonged to a man who was accustomed to work 3G5 days in the year. For that purpose I carry with tee this small piece of hickory wood, which is round and verj smooth. About twice a day I take it between my palms and rub them so that the fric tion will make them hard and callous. In that way, see I produce the 'real result' with very little trouble and an noyance. There is a bottle of brown liquid which I use occasionally for staining the back part of my hands a beautiful sunbrown color, and there you are, When I show up my hands and tell the judge that I am a hard working man, thrown out of employ ment by the si Tikes, what can he do but believe me ? The trick has saved me many a day in jail, and I flatter my self is a strictly original idea, though it is spreading rapidly. The profession, you see, is beginning to realize that it will never do to show up to a hard hearted police judge a pair of lily white bands." THEY were seated iu the balcony,and he, the ardent aud romantic lover, was breathing impassioned sentiment into the ears of the peerless hut practical Priscilla. 'How sweet to me is the scent of roses I' he murmured, in bis thrilling tones. 'The perfume of that queen of flowers affects me straugely, agitates me, nay, eyen forces the tears into my eyes I' And Pegasus would have soared to even greater heights had she not brought him to earth with the common place comment : 'Weil, do you know, I've noticed the' same thing about onions I "YANIiKK DOODLE." A Famous American Painting by an American Artist—llrlcf Sketch of A. >l. Wlllnrd. CLEVELAND.— Every one who visit ed Philadelphia during the centennial exhibition, and who went to set* things with American eyes, were enraptured by a painting that came from Ohio,and was the production of an artist then comparatively unknown outside of Ohio. The painting was "Yankee Doodle," the artist, A. M. Wlllard, of Clev* laud. Frequently during the exhibition men and women,from North and South, East and West, gathered in groups be fore the painting and gave vent to their patriotism by singing that soul-stirring song, "Yankee Doodle." "Yankee Doodle" as a song reaches the Ameri can heart; but "Yankee lkKHlle" as a painting presents to the eye a scene which, once looked upon, can never be obliterated. It was given to the world at a time when patriotism was at fever heat. It created a great sensation, and brought prominently before the public, its au thor. Ibe fever beat of ls7G passed a way, but "Yankee Doodle" lived, lives to-day, and will live as long as Ameri can art graces civilization. Americans could (lnd 110 fault with it. The very attitudes of the central tigures spoke volumes of patriotism.the expressions of the faces told better than history of the heroism displayed in that mighty, unequaled, yet victorious strugg'e against British tyranny. It was a picture of the past, calculated to instill in young and old, a betttr, purer love for native land and heal the few wounds that still remained open from the civil strife of the "sixties." It ac complished all and still lives. In times to come, ages hence, may "Yankee Doodle," in song and painting, l>e the stars that shall lead America's mighty hosts on to victorious struggles against ignorance and tyranny. While American critics could And no errors in the ideal tiealment of the sub ject. a few foreign critics sought notor iety by attacking the artist for placing the life and drum corps in trout of an advancing regiment on the field. They claimed that it wasincorrect ami made a great deal of bluster. Their bellow ings only increased the popularity of the painting, when it became generally known that these zealous critics were foreigners, and English at that. Everyone knows well that the Conti nental army was not at all times profi cient in military tactics. It mattered hut little whether the hand was in the front or rear. The music tea* there, and men were plentiful who would lead a regiment "into the jaws ot death" with no other weapon to strike terror into the British heart than the inspir ing air of "Yankee Doodle." Mr. Willard knew this, and when ho credited the famous painting he etideay ored to give a vivid and faithful picture of real patriotism uncurabered of mili tary tactics, aud well he succeeded. "Yankee Doodle" was exhibited for the first time at the Centennial, and was the central fiugre in the Art Gal lery. Then it went to the "oIJ South Church" in Boston. For some months that famous old structure was crowded From Boston it was taken to San Francisco and exhibited for some time. Then it went to the Corcoran Art Gal lerv, in Washington, and then kick to Cleveland. During this time the coun try was flooded with copies and the ar tist reaped his first harvest. The origi nal was purchased by the late General Deveraux, of this city, who formerly presented it to the old town of Marble head, Mass. "Yankee Doodle" is an American painting from the easel of an artist who trac*s his ancestors back to the excit ing days of 1776. Therefore it can be classed among the yery few American productions of note. A. M. Willard was born in Bedford, a few miles from Cleveland, in 1563. In those days Bedford was a far more im portant place than Cleveland. Alas ! how time changes things. At school young Willard was noted for one thing at least. lie persisted in using the slate as a medium for illus trating certain horned domestic ani mals instead of worrying over long and short divisions. The teacher endeavored to "bull" the cattle market, but the young scholar never "sold short." When seveuteen the hopeful young man obtained a little instruction in por trait painting. A thorough art educa tion not being available to him, he learned the trade of a carriage painter, ills remarkable ability soon manifested itself, and in a short time he became a skilled ornamental painter. The rou tine life of a village painter was not suited to his tastes, and he began to consider the opening of a new field. It was about this time that he produced the "Pluck" pictures which were sold extensively as chromos. "Pluck" was the dawn of day to him, and clear day light came with "Deacon Jones." In 1874 he moved to Cleveland, and early in '76 prod need" Yankee Doodle." Mr. Willard is well-known through out the country, and is on intimate terms with all the prominent men of the day. lie is an industrious worker and commands enormous price*, for his work. One of his late works, "The Minute Men of the Revolution," was one of the great attractions at the New Orleans exhibitions. . —John have you seen lhat woman lately ?

Slelttlii-of-Hand Tricks That Proved Expensive to Tlielr Performers- Conjurers, despite the * quickness of luind" they usually gel credit for, uiakj stme awkward and most amusing blunders. Hut they have this in their favor, thai the audience seldom knows of tho mishap that has occurred. As is well ki.own, a groat many of tho articles to ho performed with are borrowed from the audience, such as watches, hank notes, rings, haudket chiefs, etc., and the owners of these articles should not he surprised if they reeeivedthem hack iu a damaged condi tion, when the treatment they are sub jected to is taken Into coudilinn. They are supposed to he mashed, burned, or in some manner destroyed, and then mysteriously put to rights again ; ami, although sensible people know full well that the genuine article has net really been destroyed, hut that a substitution has been adroitly effected, still the process of substitution is often ullended with great risk to the articles operated upon— such as dropping them quickly iuto the operator's pocket, or into traps, or slipping theui into an assist ant's hand. A conjurer performing recently in the south of Scotland asked for the loan of n watch. A gentleman lent him a valuable gold chronometer. A wonder ful trie* was performed with It, and the audience Hccorded the performer a heavy round of applause ; but when the gentleman got his watch hack a a note was slipped iuto his hand inti mating that his watch had t*en dam aged, hut he would be compensated for it at the close of the entertainment. The watch was indeed damaged - hut the performer paid the owner its full price. Some (terformers have been most unfortunate in this way. We know one who had to pay the full price for dam aged watches thiee times in as many years, and eaeli time owing to the gross carelessness of his assistant. A few years ago a young conjurer who has since acquired some celebrity, gave his first public entertainment,and was assisted behind ttie scenes by some kind friends. The loan of a bank note I was requested, and one for twenty pounds was handed to the pei former. This lie successfully substituted for a sham note, passing the genuine one, by means id a trap in his table to his as sistants behind, lie then proceeded to burn the duplicate at the fiarne of a candle, all the while enjoying the dis cotnflture of the lender, who apparent ly fully believed that his twenty pound note was being destroyed, and who was beard to remark : "If I had kuowu he was going to do that with it be shouldn't have got it." But the per foimer's enjoyment at the lender's anxiety was of sliortduration.for wlieu the act of restoration came about lie discovered to his horror that his fi lends had completely destroyed the genuine note as he had the sham one. An ex planation was made to llie lender, the audience knew nothing of the disaster, and before the conclusion of the enter tainment the louder waa compcntmu-u for tils loss. I'rof. G , hailing from the North of Scotiaud.had acquired greatdexteiity in bis manipulation of eggs,withwhich he performed a number of clever illusions. In practicing these feats he generally used hard boiled eggs, but lie very care lessly allowed several utibnihd eggs to get mixed up with the boiled ones, so that after some time lie could not tell the boiled from the unboiled. He was punished for his carelessness in away be never dreamed of. He was engaged to perform at a Christmas party held at the mansion of the Lord Provost, of a Scotch city. His audience on that occasion was the most fashionable to which he had perfotmed either before or since. His first experiment consisted in ex tracting eggs from the flame of a can dle that stood upon his table. Thiee eggs were successfully produced, which lie proceeded, as WAS his custom, to band around to prove their genuine ness ; but iu handing oue of them to a gentleman to exumine he allowed or.e of the others to fall, which, sti iking on the knee of a lady, broke and be smeared her dress. The egg having been long in the per former's possession was considerably "stale." A disagreeable aud sicken* ing odor speedily filled the apartment, handkerchiefs and smelling bottles were brought into requisition, the young lady had to rptire and change her dress, which site never wore agai the oilier ladies also quilted the apart ment and the entertainment was brought to an abrupt termination.— London l\d Bits.

"Talking about railroad accidents." remarked an old railroad man in con versation about the Chatswortli horror, "the most remarkable one I eyer knew of—and I've been running on the road now for nearly thirty years—was in Kansas on the K. P., not far from Fort Wallace, where a train of cars includ ing the engine was thrown into the bed of a dry creek and never found. That is the engine and some of the cars never were. The engineer and firemen were both lost. The train was a freight and that'B why there were no passengers to be killed. At the time of the Tay bridge disaster in Scotlaud, the train, which was blown from the bridge, or went through the bridge, which ever it was, was never found because the water and mud were deep and swallowed up tbe engine, while the coaches probably went out to sea withthe tide. But tbeie is no tide in that Kansas dry branch* The quicksand just swallowed eyery thing."—[Chicago Tribune, Writing Under Preaaure. In a chat the other day with a getitle tuau wi 11-known in tho literary world he told me a number of entertaining things in connection wilii his literaly experience. I naked him, among other things, whether he had ever written anything under high pressure. We had been talking about inspiration, but he purpossly miscountructed my meaning in the reply lie made. 'Yes,' he said, 'I onco wrote a poem of forty lines in as manv minutes, and it wasn't a bad poem, either. It was a case of compulsory composition and taxed me more than I had eyer been taxed before—or since. 1 bad sent to a certain magazine a poem entitled 'The Light House in a Storm.' Not hearing alMiut it for almost a year, 1 concluded that it had been declined. 1 then had it put in a literary weekly of which I was the editor,and had a Hue engraving made of it. The page was made up, and was just about to go to the electro lypcrs, when the magazine for the month arrived, and, upon opening it, there was the poeui. A cold chill ran up my back—or down it, I'm not cur tain which. Of course it couldn't ap pear in the other journal—but there was tho engraving, the forty iiues of space, tho form ready to go to the elec trolypers ! lam up to the composing room. 'Can you hold that form for half an hour ?' I asked of the foreman, 'l'li try, lie said.

'And which was tho best poem V' I asked. 'The one which 1 was compelled to write,' lie said. 'And if I was in spired I wasn't conscious of it, I'm sure.

The duties of the wife of a Syrian to-day are as follows : She brings all the water for family use from a distant well; this is accomplished by tilling immense jars, and bringing ttiem upon Iter head. She rises early anu goes to the handinill of the village, carrying corn, enough of which for the day's bread she grinds by a slow, labor ious process. This she carries home and cooks in an oven which is made in the earth. It is a round hole, lined with oval and Hat stones, and heated by a lire built iu it. When the bread is mixed wilii water and a little salt she removes the ashes and plasters little pats of dough against the hot stones to cook. Could anything be more crude ? She cares for her children—usually a huge family—and does all the rough work at intervals, while the devoted (?) husband calmly smokes his "argelic," or sits cross-legged upon bis divan or housetop, in conversation with some equally hard-working member of Syrian society.
