GAMBLING SUPERSTITIONS.
Iloudin, in his interesting book, "Les
Trickeries des Grecs *seam," has given
some amusing instances of the fruits of
long gambling experience. " They are
presented" said Steinmetz, from whoS6
work, " The Gaming Table," we ~quoto
them, "as the axioms of a professional
gambler and cheat." Thus we might
expect that, however unsatisfactory to
men of honest mind, they would at least
savor of acertain sort of wisdom. Yet
these axioms, the fruit of long study di
rected by self-interest, are all . utterly
untrustworthy.
"Every game of change," says this
authority, "presents two kinds of which
are very distinct, namely, those relating
to the, person interested, 'that is the
player ; and those inherent in the com
binations of the game." That is, we are
to distinguish between
. che chanctis
prcper to the game, add th-lse depending
on the luck of - the player. Proceeding
tb consider the 'chances proper to are .
game, itself, our friendly cheat sums thorn
all up iii two rules. First : "Though
chances can bring into the game all pos
sible combinations, there are, neverthe
less, certain limits at which it seems to
stop ;° such for instance, as a certain
number turning up ten times insucces
sion at roulette ; this is possible, but it
has never happened." Secondly, in a
game of chance, the oftener the same
combination has occurred in sudeession,
.the nearer wo aro to the certainty-that-
it will not recur at the next cast or turn.
This is the most elementars.of the the , -
ory or probabilities ; it IS' termed the
maturity of the chances," (and he might
have added that the belief in this ele
mentary theory had ruined thousands.)
"Hence," ho proceeds, "a player must
not only come to the tattle ' in luck,' but
ho must not risk his money e-;copt; at the
instant prescribed by the rules of the ma
turity of the chailees." Then follow the
precepts for pe4onel conduct : "Foi•
gambling profei:' roulette, because it pre
sents several ways' of staking your
money, which pc' wits the study of sev
eral. A player should approach the
gaming, table perfectly calo, awl cool ;
just as a merchant or tradesman in
treaty about`any affair ; if he gets into a
passion it is-all over with prridenci3, all
all over with good luck, for the demon I
of bad luck invariably pursues a passion
ate player. Every man who finds a
pleasure in playing runs the risk of los
ing. A prudent player before undertak
ing anything, should put himself to the
test to discover if he is ' in vein,' or in
luck. In all doubt he should abstain.
There are several persons who are con
tinually pursued by bad luck ; to such I
say, never play. Stubbornness at play
is ruin. Remember that fortune does
not like people to bo overjoyed at her
favors, and that she prepares bitter de
ceptions for the imprudent who aro in
toxicated. by success. Lastly, before
risking your money at play; study your
vain,' and theudifferent Probabilities of
the game—termedas aforesaid, the ma
turity of the chances.
Before proceeding to exhibit the fal
lacy or the principles here enunciated—
principles which have worked incalcula
ble mischief—it may be well for us to
sketch the history of the 'scamp who
enunciated them ; so far, at least, as his,
gambling successes are concerned. His
first meeting with HOudin took place at'
a subscription ball where ho managed to
fleece Houdin "and other': to a consid
'erable amount, contriving a dukterous
escape when detected. Houdin after-
lihVids fell in with him at Spa, where he
found the gambler in the greatemt, pov
erty, and lent him a iimmllitsunr=to prac
tice his grand theopeC" „This sum the
surf' Houdin advised him

Houdin, the folloiv

thing, how'requld
oanks in their pride,
and what a glorious vengeance I could
take of bad luok and its inflexible
ageiit's 1 ..But my heart is' • too full of
my happiness to allow-the smallest place
for' the . desire of venkeance." Three
yeaks later ho died,, and .11mIdin informs
us that he loft the whole of flits fortuno
to various charitable institutions, his ca
reer antic his acquisition of wealth going
far to dotnonstratO tito justice. of Becky
Sharp's theory, that it is easy to be hon
est on five thou Sand a year. • _
It is remarkable that the principles
enunciated above are not only erroneous,
but self-cOntradietor,..Yet„it is to be
noticed, that though :they are presented .
as the ohtcome of a life•of gambling mt.
perienae, they me, in reality entertained
by all gamblers, however limited their
experience, as well as by many who aro

EN MINIATURE.
The lovely Anna Smythei's, of, Ghent,
found a joyous life awaiting her as a
pupil in the studio of Gerhard Dow, the
fanfous painter of the Netherlands...
......Mer.father had at last yielded to her
repeated entreaties for instruction by a
regular mastery and the hope of her!m
riching both herself' and himi.rhy.the
practice of the art, which ho flat-Veined
but lightly, had decided him to send her
to ,Leyden, to the -home of Dow, who
Was a distant relative of her deceased
mother. Thus, for the first time, Anna
stopped from the gloom of a lonely youth
into a warm, bright atmosphere of affee.

the art which. she Ledo° king secretly
adored, she' noallossomed like
to the joy of all who sitw her, and her
rich talent developed itself with aston

Dow's studio Was a spacious room,
with a northern exposure, full of soft
. lights, and looking down upon the wa

reigned. in the cool attractive retreat.
The master never began his morning
work until every particle of dust had
subsided. Long after blOndo Anna
stood painting zealously at her easel;
Dow would wait patiently, watching the
fine motes floating , in the sunshine, and
when the' giddy whirl, liad c , ceased ho
would slowly bring forth from a chest
his palette, with its belongings, carefully
select his, colors, and take the bruph in
his baud. ` Then there Must be no going

and thus. the ''blue',flower" of , a first
happy love unfolded iu fierhard . . Dow's
studio.
Frau Katherina was soon the confidapdo
of the girl'a over full heart, and, after
the pauper . of women; she constituted,
heraolf tllet guardian of the lovers. It
'was she , who arranged for Anna a sea,
beside herself in the twilight, at that
window of the parlor which looked out
uport.the street where Jacob floors Was
sure to pass, boW, a respectful greeting,
and then step a little nearer. Then the
housewife would suddenly. remember
some important matters demanding her
immediate presence. There seemed al
ways-to he a kettle boiling over in the
kitchen, and. there were no sucFjunket

hard Dow's howie,...
Meanwhile the young people were left
alone. Their conversation was very
softly carried on, the little blonde head
Peering so shyly from behind the yellow,
violets and rosemary. Sometimes a
man's hand, strong aud shapely, stole iu,
and rested .onthe window sill, perhaps

some labor, surely ; yet the rosy, girlish
fingers hastened to aid that band, and so
wore hold suddenly, in warm, sweetinf
prisonment until Frau Katherina came
back, and the dungeon opened of itself.
Bitt the lovers were not seldom startled
in a more nngentlo, fashion. A rain of
coarser garden vegetables Would • fall
among the flowers, accompanied, by a
shrill whistle or , a sneering„ laugh.
Whence came these insults?
Gerhard Dow, whose eyes. : wore wont
to observe so closely every liTrearnfut of
the human..face, seemed strangely-. blind
to the plain declaration. of the two happy
faces, but Franz Von Mieris' dark blue
oyes were all the keener, and his heart
was torn with angry jealousy.

at the negligence of his once so diligent
pupil. It was wall that Frau Katherina
knew so well how to pacify her husband,
and coax him to lot the child' alone.
At evening they were always together as

Anna seated herself - at the table and
cut from a roll oPparchinent a bit of the
size of a bean, mingled the colors, and
lionding her head kiw began to paint.
It was still as death in the room. The
master worked :on, apparently indiffer
'Mit as tO the result. Franz Mieris stood
with didturbe'd face before his easel and
painted the portrait of a judge with a
'green neckerchief and blue nose. Near
.tho half drawn curtain, in the back
ground, stood Frau Katherina, deadly
pale with folded hands, and over her
left shoulder looked the sculptor's intel
lectual face, a clear beam of love stream
ing from his eyes upon the painting
The wild roses outside. the
window pressed mulorisly against the
panes; and beetles and butterflies nearly
beat out their brains upon the glass,
while the sparrows loudly related to oath
other, and:to every ono who choose to lis
ton, that inside the studio there everything
was not quite as it should be. Now and
then Aiina:s glance hastily sought the
face of the rich millers; and tho faintest
intimation of a sportive smile flitted
across the deep e:arnoStness of her-noble
face.
At last she arose,. and steilping toward
Gerhard Eldw, she said : "Your eyes
shall first behold my trial piece. Tell
me if It is good work I"
Gerhard Dow laid upon the palm of
his broad, right hand the tiniest paint
ing that over artist fingers had created,
and gazed upon it in amazement.
"Child, you have learned more than
could ever have taught you! Such
work as this neither I myself nor any
other painter in the Netherlands could
equal • I know not who has secretly in
structed you. Thank him, not me, for
your success. You have created the
Most exquisite miniature genre picture
that,my eyes over beheld I"
So saying ho approached Herr Smyth
ers and Lucas Smart and held out his
hand. Franz Mieris came near and
peered over their shoulder, and all three
gazed in amazement utirin the wonderful
miniature painting, whose every line
was executed with the most enchanting
clearness and -delicacy. There was a
windmill; with its sails, a stout miller
-who strikingly resembled Lucas Srhart,
horses, with sacks, carts, and many peo•
plo crowded together, but- each figure
entirely distinct and perfect in its kind.
The stern judge shoved his 1 . le cap
from 'Tone ear to the -other, and said
slowly : You are right ; nobody could
equal that. We need no other fortuue..
Lucas Smart, put the princess out of
your mind. As you said, there are other
maidens in Ghent. go together
and search for one. As for Anna, she
may stay hero and paint !'
"No, no I take mo with you l" cried
the lovely Anna. " I can go on painting
at-home if you will allow some one to go
with me who has been
_my chief in
etructor.!'.
Before the old man could reply Jacob
"nears burst from his retreat, and in his
joful confusion fell, by mistake; upon
the neck of the rich miller, and embraced
him so long and .ardently that Gerhard
Dow himself laughingly rescued- the
astonished man. Then followed a chaos
of questions and answers, laughter and
tears, until at last tto lovers e stood hand
in hand before the amazed father.
"But can he do anything in par

tointing to tlio young sculptor.
"Certainly cried Frauz,Mieris, with
a sneer, "he knows how to break stone,

Continual errors in - infantile diet aro
committed by parents giving their child
ren strong, gross food, such as they use
themselves. An :,attack of cholera in

on in hot weather by a sudden change of
food for the infant in subStituting for the

this in not always limited quantity.
[lento Mothers should' not atkompt to
wean their children during the summer
months, except under very `peculiar
circumstances, and counselled by the
ph34ician. The food for a child during
the whole of the saintlier months, and,
indeed. at all' times, should be milk,
.either pure or mixed with fairnaceous_
