The contract also jrcnerallv stipulates that the ehihl shall receive a certain amount as wages, awl that the Mini shall W pla vd to its credit until the money advanced has been pa M. when the ehihl will a; rain In free. As the ehihl (.'rows older anil lte eomes able to earn more money its par ents, so it happen- in nearly cv.rv ease, applv for more money, thus piiiii.-T up the debt.

Hook on Itol. iiv r.omid lu the Hark of I t Tret ami I'litnt. At Warthenstein. in (lermany. there is perhaps one of the most curiously original collections of ImwiUs extant. This consists of a ltotanical collection. Outwardly the books present the com mon appearance of a block of wood, and that is the first impression: but a minute examination reveals the fact that each is a complete history of the particular tree which it represents. At the back of the lxxk the bark has been removed from a space whieh allows the scientific and common n;imes of the tree to be placed as a title. One side is formed front the split of the tree, show ing its grain and natural fracture: the other shows the woxl when worked smooth and varnished. One end shows the grain as left by the saw, the other the finely-polished wood. On opening the IxKik it is found to contain the fruit, seeds, leaves and other products of the tree. These are supplemented by a well-printed description of its habits, usual location and manner of growth. It fact, every thing which has a bearing upon that particular tree secures a place in this wonderful, useful and valuable collection. Here is a prece dent for the Ktanieal societies to adopt, and although doubtless expensive, yet it w ill certainly repay in its Utility. Christian at Work. AROUND THE GLOBE.

I r .! fni the Hhale. i Only one species of featherless ani mal that can fly exists In all the world, ; and it in one that you probably have i often seen. Properly speaking it bad no j wing-n, nevertheless iu flying appur I unanee is nioro nearly p rfect than i that of any bird. lt flies with wonder ' ful rapidity, darts about with such ' quickness that it it difficult for the eye to follow it, and its senc of touch and j smell are something marvelous. In watchitif? its rapid and eccentric ' flight in the twilifrhtyou have, nodoubt. thought that this straniji-animal is a lurd. Rut its binl-like appearance 'nds with its ability to fly. Its younj; are born and nurtur.'U just as are puppies and kittens. This strange flyintr animal is tho bat, says a writer in tho Philadelphia Times. In one of .Esop's fables it is related that the beasts and the birds once enjra-d in battle, and the bat hovered above, chanpinjr from one side U the other, as the chances of victory changed. For this treachery tho bat was doomed to tho rjueer life he now leads, that of an apparent bird, but a real mammalian ani mal. The structure of the bat is very pecul iar An eminent naturalist says: "If the Rnjrers of a man wen; to be drawn out like wire to altout four feet in length, a thin membrane to extend from finder to finder, and another membrane to fall from the little flnper to the ankles, he would make a very tolerable bat." Yes. the whole skeleton of the bat is very similar to that of man. with the exception of the great elonjr-ition of what we may call the arms and hands. When you see the hat darting alout in the cveninff he is takinjr his supper. He lives as the swallow does, on insects in the air, and. although his sight is very poor, his touch and smell are so sensi tive that he has no difficulty in catch ing his prey, even when flying1 so very fast. When cold weather comes on the hat ceases to ny about in search of food. He doesn't need to. He seeks a well shel tered nook, where he is not likely to In. disturlicd. and quietly takes a nap till next spring' Somewhat analagous to the hat. the mammalian of the air, is the whale, the ma-lnmaliau of the sea. The whale is no more a fish than the hat is a bird. Its young are horn like the kittens and the puppies, but only one at a nine, lue young whale takes its nourishment at its mother's breast, just as the human baby does, and it is just as carefully watched and guarded by its parents. Although whales grow to enormous size, sometimes eighty and even ninety feet long, the throat is so small that tho animal couldn't swallow a bite as large as a tea biscAiit. This applies to the common whale: the spermaceti has a mouth large enough to swallow a man. The whalebone that the dress-makers and others iind so useful is what may be called the jaw of the common whale. It has no teeth, and it lives on anima cules little animals that float in great numbers on tho surface of the water. Tlii? whalebone is used as a sieve through which tbe food is strained. Therefore the whale that kindly took lonah "in out of the wet" must have "teen a spi-rm iceti. which has a big throat and jaws with about one hundred let tli in each. POCKET-MONEY FOR BOYS.

Young gen tlemen of larg-e expectations are accus tomed to carry bank bilks in their porto lnonnaies at the ripe ago of ten in these days of prematurity. At fourteen they are content with nothing less than well stuffed pocket-books, which "the pov ernor" is required to refill as fast as they are emptied, or, if he demurs to the requisition, the wherewithal must come out of "the old lady's" pin money. "Youth must be served," especially pre cocious youth. All this is wron?. Every father and mother knows it i wrong, and yet such things are common, says the Xew York Ledger. Say what we may about the harsh, austere, uncompromising old Puritans, their stern family discipline was better than the domestic indul gence by which children are "spoiled" r in these modern day?. Koys need tin curb as much ai fiery young colts, anc of the two extremes it is wiser to bit them heavily than to throw the reins on their necks and let them gallop at their own wild will. There is a middle course, however, which conscientious trainers of youth find no difficulty in mirsuine. Would there, wore more of them. STILU ANOTHER MYTH. It AVtss Not KouKrt Uc IIl AVlio Wrote the Music of the " Marm-Ulaine." Yet another tradition is tlisprovoil and a frracefnl lefjvnd upb.t and di-crt'lited. Every one knows, says the t'liicufro Journal, who wrote the muio of the "Marseillaise," and how Rouyet de l'lsle, lyinp in prison in I'aris, heard tlie troops marching' from the South :n:j the famous war song which he had eon.p)sed to cheer the conscripts at SL'anburg. The troops were comingf from Marseilles: Kotiift-t de lTsle's hvmn was henceforth called the "Mar seillaise," and in 1S"0 its composer was pensioned hy Ixmis l'hillippe. AVtll, he did not write the music. There lived at !St. Oraer, in the department of Calais, a modest old chapel-master who had controlled the music of the cathedral and believed himself to be a composer. lie wrote hymns and anthems and pieces during the years of his office, which beyan in 1773 and ended in 177. lie even wrote an oratorio, taking the choruses from ltarin's "Esther"' for his libretto and calling Ids matnium opus by that name. When he retired from his peaceful of fice, two years before the taking of the bastile, lie drew up an inventory of all his works and deposited it and his man uscripts in the archives of the town. TLre they have remained, cared for certainly as the old organist would have wished, but also wholly undis turbed. In thti introdui-t-inn t th oratorio was that very hymn to which, J two years after the choir-master's re tirement, Rouret de lT.-le set his fa mous words. The manuscript la, lj leen brou-j-ht forth from obscurity and the air discovered in the composer's autograpli. There Is even noicething stranger. The battle hymn, as Rouget wrote it, had certain florid puvsages whieh he judged in accord with martial music. Subsequent arrangements by more skilled composers have reduced r omitted these, and in so doing have left the composition exactly as it appears in the old chapel-master's autograph score. .XPOqdBiSooqd jt oabu nol l.uop Aqv noq.) t4-u.rjp x flAtq o piuj3 mn I a moi Xai jo ouo u; otml ejqtaa Hns 9Atst 1., pucj; hi Tiuto.r .

A pentleman in California has been trying experiments with a spider, and he seems to think that the spider en joys certain sounds evei after he linds they are not caused by the b'izzine; of a flycaurht in the web. This is what a San l'rancisco paper says alnnit it: "A frentleman was watching some spiders when it occurred to hitntotry what effect the sound of a tuning fork would have upon them. He suspected they would take it for the buzzing1 of a fly. lie selected a lanre, ujrly spiiicr which had Itecn feasting on tlies for two months. The spider was at one eheof its web. Sounding the fork the man touched a thread at the other side and watched the result. "Mr. Spider had the buzzing' sound con veyed to him over the telephone wires, but how was he to know on which par ticular wire it was traveling? He ran to the center of the web very quickly and felt all around until he touched the thread ajrainst the other end of which the fork was soundinjr, then, taking another thread alonp, just as a man would take an extra piece of rope, he ran out to the fork and sprang njan it. Then he retreated a little way and looked at the fork. He was puzzled. He had expected to find a buzzinjj fly. He pot tin the fork atrain and danced with deiipht- Evidently the bound wa music to him.
