HELPING OTHERS. If there bo somo weaker one, CJlve me strength to help him on; If a blinder soul there bo. Let mo guide him nearer thee: Make my mortal dreams come true With tho work I fain would do; Clothe with life tho weak intent. Let ine ho tho thine I meant; Ix!t me find in thy employ I'eace, that dearer is than joy; Out of self to love bo led, And to Heaven acclimated. Until all things sweet anu good Seem my nature habitude. -J. O. Whittier. AN IMITATION WIFE. 1 had adjusted my tie, taken up my hat and was preparing to leave wheu the door slowly opened and my mother came in. "Going out, are yon Tom?" said she. -Yes." "Where—to another party?" "Yes." "That makes three this week, doesn't it, Tom?" "Yes. We're hurrying to get through. Going to take Miss Beaufort tonight, and then I'm done with the Jolly club's parties. Mother somehow or other didn't seem to think very much of what I said. "Tom, I wish you would get married," she said, with a troubled face. "1 be lievo you would stay at home more." "Well, I am awful tired, mother, and completely worn out." "Then why don't you quit it?" "Tho best reason in the world, mother. I am neither engaged nor in love, but am willing to be both." It was getting late so I started after this, but the sad look on my mother's face set me to thinking. My mother is the best woman in the world, oven if I do say it myself, and I felt worried about her. Sho was right. 1 was out nearly every evening—this evening at a reception, next time at a ball, then a theater party and so on. Of course I could well afford it, for my salary as cashier at Hart's was a lib eral one. But I was not saving a penny, and my homo folks never saw me except at tho table. Even poor old patient mother was complaining. But I was having lots of fun. There was that Beaufort girl—she was a fiiio one. Could dance any dance, talk about anything and make you have the finest time in the world. Then there was Vene Wright. She would play a game with a fellow, go rowing, skating —anything for fun. Then, Vene had money; that was an im portant item. Why shouldn't I tackle Miss Vene on the subject of matrimony? "Thomas, old son," said I to myßelf, "Vene is the one." But Vene somehow or other did not exactly suit the case, and my mind re verted to Miss Beaufort, who was smart, pretty, stylish and suited better, but 1 knew nothing about her financial stand ing. This was an important matter to me in those days. Meanwhile the carriage approached Miss Beaufort's. I had never been there before, and to my surprise found it to bo a very unpretentious house. I con fess I was disappointed. I expected to drive up to an elegant mansion, be ush ered into a line reception room by a servant in livery and there await the coming of Miss Beaufort. Then I ex pected to make a bold dash for her heart —propose, and possibly be accepted or declined by the time the party was over. But not so. A littlo lady with gray hair opened the door, and she was intro duced to me by Miss Beaufort as "mam ma." Miss Beaufort was ready and waiting, so wo walked out to the car riage. "Mr. Silver," said she after we had seated ourselves, "don't yon think there is a great amount of snobbery in society and lots of downright foolishness?" "Well, yes," said I. "For instance," said she, "hero is an elegant carriage that you have brought for me, and yet the party is not half a mile away." This certainly was very refreshing. 1 had actually squandered one pound to have this carriage for the evening, and she was not pleased with it. I know Vene would have enjoyed a ride in it. "Mr. Silver," she remarked again, "this is tho last party I am going to this winter." "Well, why?" said I. "Aren't you go ing to take in tho (ierman club ball and the others?" "No," said she. "Mamma hasn't the money; she can't afford it. Besides, Mr. Silver," she continued, "can you really afford to spend so much money 011 so ciety?" X looked at her. There was honesty fairly shining out of her pretty black eyes, even if she wasn't very polite, so 1 answered her honestly; "No, Miss Beaufort, 1 cannot! I haven't saved a penny this winter, and 1 got a big salary too. It seems idiotic." "I liavo met you so frequently I feel quite well acquainted with you, though X expect X have been a little impolite." "No," said I. "I am glad that you take that much interest in me." Then we changed the subject. ' I had a splendid time at the party and enjoyed Miss Beaufort's company very much. I found her level headed and bright, if she was too frank. The next day I told mother about it. She said she admired Miss Beaufort for her common sense, though she had never seen her. Then she referred again to my getting married. "Suppose," said she, "that you pretend for a week or so that you are married and see how it goes?" "An imitation wife," said I. "Why not?" she said. "I will write the name of a young lady on a card, seal it in an envelope and you can lock it in your desk. Then let us suppose you are married to her for say two weeks. Dur ing that time I want you act just as if the lady were hero in person and your lawfully wedded wife." "Whoso name are you going to write on the card?" said I. "Never mind," said she. "I will write fay preference and neither of us will breathe a word about this ta a fiving soul." We agreed on this. .Mother wrote the name on the card and sealed it in the envelope. I knew it was Vene Wright's name, so I decided to imagine that Vene was there in person, and so we commenced the week. Monday night came. That was the night of the German club ball; but 1 staid at home and talked to mother. Then I played drafts with her for awhile, and we managed to have a very enjoyable evening. Next morning mother met me at the table with smiles and about the best breakfast I had eaten for a long while. 44 You must imagine that your wife •saw to this breakfast," she whispered. Going to the city this morning who should get into the 'bus but Miss Beau fort. I bowed to her gracefully, passed her fare to the conductor, and was about to sit down by her side when I hap pened to think of my imitation wife at home and kept my seat by the door. 4 'Married men have no business bilk ing to the young ladies," said I to my self. Miss Beaufort looked at me rather queerly, but said nothing, and I thought the 'bus would never get to the city. Thursday was the evening I was to call on Vene, and I forgot to send her an excuse. On Friday a note came from her, which mother took the liberty of opening, as she thought I would not care, and she felt like representing my wife in the desk. It was a tender mis sive, and somewhat surprised me when I saw it. But what could I do? Mar ried men have no business getting ten der notes from young ladies. Inasinu. li as 1 had contracted to carry out motlier's plan for two weeks, I left the note for mother to answer. She is a very truthful woman, hut in answering the note sho prevaricated. She said that 1 was very sick, and as a natural consequence Vene called that afternoon to see me, hut 1 was at busi ness, and mother had to invent another story. Then she had to come all the way to the office so as to keep mo from coining home my usual way for fear Vene might catch us. I laughed a good deal at mother, and Vene did not find us out, hut Mrs. Jones —an awful gossip—met her, and Vene told her I was sick, and the next day all my society friends came round, among them Miss Beaufort. Mother met her rather coldly, but in vited her to stay awhile. "I suppose Mr. Silver is almost worn out with so much going out"' said the young lady. "He is much hotter," said mother, "but 1 do not think he will go out for several weeks. I think that I shall keep him at home." "I am so glad," said Miss Beaufort; "not that you are going to keep him at home, but that lie is not going out so much. lam getting so that I fairly de test society. Here was a woman who had my mother's views, and they both thereui>on had a confidential "talk and pleased each other mightily. Then sho asked the mater to call on her mother, which she did. Meanwhile I was staying at homo ev ery evening and was getting pretty tired ; of it, as tho two weeks were drawing to a close. "Don't you think u man ought to hike his wife out once in a while?" said I to j mother. "Why not?" said she. "Then I'll take her to the theater to night." So 1 took a couple of reserved seats at Drury Lane theater for tho fol lowing night, and mother, who repre sented my wife, went with 1110. We had hardly taken our seats before I noticed that they were adjoining those of Miss and Mrs. Beaufort. We went home together that night and laughed and talked a good deal. I think mother told Mrs. Beaufort what we had been doing, but X did not hear it. X know that Beveral days later, after my two weeks of married life were over, I went to call 011 Miss Beaufort. We had a pleasant time together, and just as 1 was about to leave the old lady camo in. "I forgot to ask yon, Mr. Silver, what you thought of married life," said she. Miss Beaufort looked horrified, but laughed. "Mother has been telling you, has she?" said I. "She has," said she. "Well," said I, "during the two weeks I was married 1 read three good books, gained four pounds in weight, saved £5 10s., besides paying mother for my wife's board and the tickets to Drury Lane." "And who wero you married to?" asked Miss Beaufort. "I forgot to look," said 1. I hurried home to see who my wife had been. The envelope was just as I had placed in in my desk drawer. I tore it open, and there was tho name of Miss Beaufort. "Well," said I, "mother made her an imitation wife, now I will try to make her a real one." And so I did.—New York Mercury. Matching Teeth. Perhaps the greatest difficulty that dentists meet with is tho matching of false teeth with the natural teeth of their customers. Tho tooth factories supply dentists with rings upon which are strung thin short metal bars, each carrying a tooth at its'extremity. There are twen ty-five of these sample teeth that run all the way from nearly white to a shade that is almost olive. Some one of the twenty-five usually almost matches the patient's natural teeth, and, at any rate, enables the dentist to match the teeth by application at the factory.—New York Sun. AIIIIIIUIH That Do Not Drink. Darwin states in his "Voyage of a Naturalist" that unless the huanacoes, or wild llamas of Patagonia, drink salt water, in many localities they must drink none at all. The large and interesting group of sloths are alike in never drink ing. A parrot is said to have lived in Ihe Zoological gardens, Regent park, for Ifty-two years without a drop of water. —Pittsburg Dispatch. Nearly il 00,000,000 a Year. I Mr. James Wright, second vice presi dent of the Inman line, says that when 1 the end of 1892 comes at least 100,009 I>eople will have left for Europe from all parts of this country during the year. Half of them will sail during the fifteen weeks of the season, from April to August. Some travelers will carry hundreds of dollars in their pocketbooks to spend where others carry thousands. ; Nine-tenths of those hundreds and thou- : sands will be transferred to foreign own ers before the tourists return. Even the money spent for passage and during the voyages must be counted in that which bids goodby to this land of liberty, for the great steamship compa nies are, with one exception, foreign corporations. Including tips and fees these corporations will take an average of SIOO from each passenger for the round trip. The majority will pay less, but there will be enough rich men who who pay a good deal more to bring the mean amount up to that, figure. The money which each tourist carries with him is harder to estimate. A for eign exchange clerk said that the letters of credit issued by them to European travelers average about £OOO. or SII,OOO each; but this is above the ordinary fig ure, and of course this in many cases covers a party of four or five. Eight hundred dollars is estimated as the aver- ! age amount taken by each passenger in the cabin. This makes the total average exj>enditure of the average European traveler S9OO. When this is multiplied by the estimated total of theso travelers the result is astounding. It is $1)0,000,000. Ninety-six millions of dollars carried | from America to Europe in a single year i by travelers alone t If this were saved for a few years Uncle Sum might buy a good slice of Europe and bring it over here for exhibition purposes.

The Lenten offerings of the Sunday j school children of the Protestant Episco- '■ pal church throughout the United States ' i thus far received in behalf of the gener al board of missions arc largely in excess of those for the same period in 1891. In the two weeks immediately succeeding Easter 1,137 Sunday schools sent in $211,- 099, and it is believed a total of SIOO,OOO will have been received when all of the < 4,000 schools in the country shall have been heard from. This is donble the : sum donated last year. The Lenten Sunday school offering is | a feature of the work of the board of | missions. Just before Lent this yoar the 1 board sent a package of folding paste- j board savings banks to each Sunday i school superintendent for distribution among his pupils for the reception of the children's savings during the fasting sea son. No sooner had Easter passed than the I little banks began to arrive at the offices i of the board in the Bible House. . The twenty-five young women in Bish op Leonard's school in Reno, Nev., sent 1 $2.70. One school sent in 5,000 pennies and another 10,000 pennies.

It is an old manor house, some six miles from Leicester, and there the historian was born at the end of the year 1800, It cannot be said that Rothley Temple de rived more than nominal luster from the association, for Macaulay left Leices- i tershire before he had left infancy, j and Birchin Lane, in the city, was the home of his earliest childhood.

Cost uf an Kpitlciulc. Dr. Thresh, the medical officer for the county of Essex, having obtained full returns of the late epidemic of influenza, ' estimates that no less than 540 ]>orsons ' died under the immediate attack, and j i that no fewer than 1,400 deaths occurred in tho county from its direct or indirect ' influence. Tho monetary loss for the 1 two months during which the epidemic 1 prevailed he states at no less than £SO,- !

Digging Oreeni. ! It is time to piclt greens, or, rather, dig greens. Traveling the rural roads in Connecticut just now, especially in the neigborhood of cities, one sees chil dren and women 011 the green lots by the roadside digging in the ground just as fast as they can. Each one carries a willow arm basket or tin pail, and a short bladed case knife. The little squads chatter and laugh and talk gossip, and now and then one trills the refrain of a popular song. They are not skylarking or merrymaking; they are digging greens—red and yellow dock, dandelions, burdock and plantain —for home consumption. Everybody wants greens now, and trade in them is very lively. In a few weeks the garden greens—cultivated dandelions or spinach—will be ready to market, and then the popular demand for wild greens will cease. Most of the will greens gathered by Connecticut women and children are dandelions and dock, but some of the bolder ones, nim ble footed maidens, put 011 rubber lx>ots and slouch hats, penetrate into the tan gled swamps, leaping from one quaking tussock to another, and harvest a bushel of wet and shining cowslips a day. Al>out decayed old stumps in forest dales skoko thrives, and they pluck it in handfuls. At the beginning of the season dan delion greens are worth forty or fifty cents a pock in the market, and the re tail dealers sell them for fifty or sixty cents; later the prico runs down to twenty-five cents a peck.—Cor. New York Sun. Halibut in Plenty. The fishing schooner Surprise, Captain James Bell commanding, which sailed from Astoria in November for the pur pose of prospecting the coast of Alaska and the Alexander archipelago in hopes of finding banks where halibut could bo taken during the winter, returned to Astoria Saturday. She cruised around till April, visiting every point where there was a prospect of finding halibut and setting trawls in many places with out success until 011 the Bth of April, af ter rounding Cape Chacon, on Prince Edward island, the most southwesterly point of Alaska, the first run of halibut was encountered. The fish were so plentiful and easily caught that Captain Bell, foreseeing his supply of ice was to run short, hove away to the northeast and headed up Frederick's sound for the Lacont glacier, which was reached after a two days' run, and on the 12th, with the hold full of ice, sail was made, and the 14th found the Surprise again off Cape Chacon, standing off and on, with set lines and trawls out, and the sea fairly alive with halibut. Some idea can bo formed as to how plentiful the fish were from the fact that in two days Captain Bell, his two sons and an Indian caught, cleaned and packed in the ice ten and a half tons of halibut.—Portland Oregonian. Statue of Coliimhutf for Santo Domingo. The Ames Manufacturing company has received the contract for a large bronze statuo of Christopher Columbus to be erocted at ancient Isabella, on the island of Santo Domingo, where Colum bus made his first settlement. The idea was conceived by Thomas H. Cummins, of Boston, and has been carried through a Catholic newspaper in that city. The statuo was made from designs of R. Andrew of the State Normal Art school, and the model was prepared by Alois Buyeus, of Ghent. The statue repre sents Columbus standing with the left hand extended upward in thanksgiving while the right points to the first settle ment in the New World on a sphere below. The figure is 8 feet and 2 inches high and will lx> mounted on a pyramid of coral and limestone 12 feet high, which will be crowned with a capstone of dressed granite. The people in charge of the monument have been given the land necessary for the foundation of the monument, and the republic of Santo Do mingo has agreed fo allow the importa tion of the statuo and the foundation free of duty and to care for the memorial as public property.—Cor. Springfield Republican. A Ilello. Found In a Itlver. While Edgar Bates, a geologist, of Angola, was prospecting in Jackson county, Mich., 110 discovered in a stream a peculiarly marked stone, rudely cut by a blunt instrument. With the aid of a microscope he was able to decipher an inscription running to this effect: "Sam uel Bernet: I was taken by the Indians near Sandusky, and I expect never to reach that place. If my friends— I am to l>e burned. April 10, 1809." The stono on which this was engraved was a peculiar kind of slate, of which none exists in Michigan, and Mr. Bates is confident that the relic is genuine and of high value.—Philadelphia Ledger.
