If all tho oommonoamont day essays
which will bo road in American sohooli
and oollogea this year wero cn the red
into book from tho result would bo n
aeries of volumes aa numerous and
closely printed as thojo comprised in
tho Encyclopedia Brttannica. And,
however much you may scoff at tho
statement, thcro would bo much in
thoso volumes worth tbo reading
ranch original, sensible thought, many
examples of splendid composition and
perfect English.
How truly, by the way, is tho day
on whioh thoso essays will bo road
or) led "commencement day." For it
marks the end of school life, aud of
course tho beginning of tho struggles
with tho outsido world, if thoso strug
gles aro over to begin.
But commencement day is not tho
timo to think of coming struggles;
thcro will bo time and to spam after
tho delights of tho day aro over. Tho
friendships formed in school or collcgo
aro often tho best of all. Later tho
battlo for cx'iBtcnco will occupy too
much time for such delightful com
panionships to form or for tho old ones
to bo kept up. School lifo is a mine
which tontaina other nuggots than
those of knowledge, and as commence
ment day is tho tlma when its work
ings will bo closod to you forever, dig!
dig! work with a will, and get as much
fun out of it aa you can.
Speaking of comraencemont'day fun
recalls an incident whioh occurro I at
ore of the Now York colleges a few
years ago.
Among tho graduatos was a young
man I think bis namo wm Deoit
who was ono of thoso combinations of
bashfulncss and wit which aro known
so seldom; and tho faculty had con
sented that instead of preparing a con
ventional essay ho should writo a semi
humorous record of tho work of his
class during their four yoirs of college
life. A peculiarity of Dcssoit's shy
ness was that it only appaarod when
ho encountered strangers. lie was al
ways the bast speaker at his chss din
ners; ho "knew no fear" when talking
to tho peoplo with whom ho had oven
a slight acquaintance, no matter how
largo the gathering, and among his
many friends his witty little speeches
wero often heard. But let ono
wholly unknown faco appear among his
listen nhndDessoit'a tongucjthiokened,
bis cheeks flashed and his wit fled.
Of course ho knew that thero would
bo many peoplo whom ho had never
soon among the commencement day
spectators, and ho trembled according
ly. Weeks in advance ho began
schooling himself for tho ovent, but ho
could not overcome his bashfullnea
When tho groat morning dawned ho
was torribly frightened. His agitation
waa rcaly disti easing, and if he had
begged off, giving sickness as his ex
cuse, his appearance would have justi
fied the claim.
But bo bad mado up his mind to do
or die, and of tho two he considered
doing prefrablo. His namo waa among
the first on tho programme, and as he
waited for the signal to go on the
platform he fairly quivered with pain
ful oioitomenL At last it came, and,
wondor of wonders! w'.h it came in
stant and absolute freedom from em
harassment. Calm, self possessed, his
agitation wholly gone, ho stef ped for
ward, inclined his head towards th9
faculty then towards the andienoe, and
began. He said afterwards that he
never felt moro. certain tint his man
ner was eaw, his smile natural, his'ges
tares graceful, than at that moment.
When ho reached ono of his good
points ho throw back his head and his
eyes twinkled merrily as the audience
bowed its appreciation by deafening
applause. lie had gone on for perhaps
nvo minutes, and tbo andienco was
oouvulsed with laughter whon the
president of tho college stepped up
and put his band on Dessoit s shoulder.
Hia faco waa black with rage as he
aid in tones which must havo boon
distinctly audible in all parts of tho
hall: "Mr. DessoiL leave the stage at
once.'
Dessoit waa dumfouuded. Tho
president had read and approved his
oration only the night before, and that
ho should command him to retiro be
foro he had half finished delivering it
was outrageous. Boiling with angor,
bo did as he was told. Within two
minutoa he learned what had been the
trouble. He had not made an audiblo
sound while on the stage. Ho had
stood there opening and shutting his
mouth, gesticulating, putting on the
most delightful of facial expressions,
but uttenog not ono word. Tho spec
tatora had expectod something funny
from Dessoit, and when ho began to
go through his silent imitation of
speakor thoy were imineusely pleased
The presidonl waa surprised beyond
measure, lie thought Dessoit was try
ing to make game of tho occasion.
Fully tweuty-four hours passed
before Dessoit waa thoroughly oon
vinoed that he had not spoken he
aid ho had felt tho words pass his
lips. Bit overwhelming evidonce
proved that ho was wrong, Tho presi
dent never thoroughly believed that
Dessoit really thought that bo was
talking.
At another college, where both sexes
aro received, an equally ludicrous n
oident occurred on commencement day,
Ono of tho yoang mon students who,
liko Dessoit, was very bashful, had fall
on violently in love with one of the
prettiest of "oo-ods.'' Tho night bo
foro commencement day this young
man was called upon by ouo of tho
professors to help return tho cssayx,
which had been handed in by t'ue
students for a final examination, to
thoir owners. Whilo tho young man
was at work ho ran across tho essay
written by tho girl of his heart. lie
had been unahlo to mustor upsuflioient
courage to dcolaro hia love, and as on
tho morrow ho would leavo on a rail
road train in ono direction, while
tho pretty "coed' wont in an
other, expedition was desirable Be.
tweou tho differont divisions of her es
Hay the girl had left blank sheets of
paper, tho wholo being bound to
gether with ribbons at tho top, of
course
Wbon tho young man saw theso
blank sheets a brilliant idea occurred
to him. Hastily seizing a pon, ho
wroto on ono of thorn a declaration of
his overpowering affection, and endod
by asking tho 'co-ed'' to marry him.
Ho naturally supposed that sho would
go through her essay to seo what
markings had been mado before tho
exeroisos, and thus seo his nolo. But
bo was mistaken. For somo reason or
othor sho didn't do it.
When sho stopped on the stage,
radleutly beautiful in white, ho noticed
at once that she wore the roses whioh
ho had sont her in her corsage He
took this for an affirmative reply to
bis noto, and was road with joy. Her
essay was an argument in favor of tho
independence ofwomoo, and in it she
gavo overybody who waa unfortunate
enough to be a mere man a round
"roasting." Ho voico went out into
tho ball firmly and distinctly. Sho

Parisian Liquor Saloons.
At tho recent Atooholio Congress at
Paris, it was elicited that, during the
last eitht years, the liquor saloons of
Paris have increased fiom twenty-four
thousand to twenty-nine thousand,
that, in thi.ty yoars, the consumption
of alcohol Ins been treblol, in the last
ten years doubled, and that no less
than thirty-six million gallons of al
coholic liquor have been manufaotured
out of potatoes. The seod thus sown
has borne its inevitable fruit in a start
ling increase of crime, disease, insanity
and Buiolde.
It waa a Bonton rrirl who. hnvinc

In the veins and arteries tho blue nud

man's houso just above his bed-room.
His process is a discovery of his own,
but it is so simple, he says, that a boy
of fifteen, after a single lesson, can do

Rabbits, pigs, squirrels, chickens

that in an hour ho can preparo a budy

it may be taken around tho world

two bodies which lio in mttdest stato

White, ot Wtslnnaton: jjoremus, ot
Now York, and Hordesley, of Wheel

Dare of The Eairl
No woman need to expect to have
her hair looking beautiful who goes to
bed without taking It down and giving
it its nights dressing. A woman who
het wonderfully boautiful hairs Bays:
"I tak) out all tli'i pins, brush my hair
well, and then plait it carefully but
loosely, bo that in the morning it is
not in a snarl. I usually try to brush
it ten minutes, but when I can get
somebody eltn to do it for mo the sen
Batinn is so dclioions that' I almost
wish thoy could keep on for ever. Of
course, I sit down to brush it, because
standing takes tho strength too much.
I am one of tho pooplo who believe in
learning the easist way to do evrry
thing, for really tlio same ends may bo
gained with less exertion. The 'oolish
woman Is the ono who rushes about
her room in dressing, paces tho floor
wnno uutioning ner gloves, nanus
whilo arranging lior hair, nnd the re
sult of hnr folly shows itself in her
weariness when the timo for rcoroallon
arrives.'1 Think over all of this, you
nervous women. Try to recognizu the
wastefulness of mlsappliod endeavor,
and whilo you strivo in evory legiti
mate way to make yourselves look as
nrelty a possible, save your strength
lor which it will bo absolutely required.
