JUDGE NOT TOO HASTILY.
And let not folk in judging trust their wit
Too fast, as one who couutelh up the c orn

For I have all through winter been a thorn
Appearing poison leas and obd urnte.

THE GLASS HEARTS.
There was onco a king and queen who
had three beautiful daughters, and the
organism of these threa princesses was
remarkable for their each being fur
nished with a heart of glass.
"Children, children," said the queen,
when tho princesses were still quite
small, "whatever you do, take care of
your hearts, for they are of fragile
make."
The children therefore tried to be
very careful, and for some time all
went well, and the hearts remained un
broken.
But oue day the eldest girl, who was
leaning out of the window, looking
down into the garden below, noticed a
little beo which was buzzing busily
around some flowers. The little creature
interested her so much that she leaned
out farther, so as to be able to watch it
more closely, when suddenly—smash—
there came a sound of broken glass! Tho
young princess had crushed her heart
against the window sill, and so, alas! tho
poor girl expired.
After this exceedingly sad accident
the other two sisters were still more
careful about their hearts.
Some time after tho death of the
princess, the second daughter very
thoughtlessly drank a cup of rather hot
coffee, and when she had it finished
something was suddenly heard to crock,
and she fell back fainting, into an arm
chair. The sound on this occasion, how
ever, was not so loud as 07 '.lie first.
The queen rushed to where th<s princess
lay, ami 011 examining her found, to her
great delight, that the heart was only
slightly cracked, and not broken, and
that her daughter was still alive.
"What are we to do with our daugh
ter?" said tho king to the queen, "lor,
although tho injury to her heart amounts
only to a crack at present, this may in
crease to a decided fracture."
But the princess begged them not to
worry themselves about Jier.
"For you know," said she, "it's tie
cracked pitcher that goes oftenest to the
well."
Meanwhile the youngest daughter
grew up and became a most beautiful
as well as a most remarkably clever
girl, and many a handsome and wealthy
prince from distant lands came to ask
for her fair hand. But the old king did
not forget the bitter experiences he had
had with his two elder girls.
"I have only one daughter left with
a whole heart, .and hers is also of glass.
Therefore if I give her in marriage to
any one, it must he to a king who is at
the same time a glazier and who under
stands how to treat an article so fragile,
so that in case of accidents lie would
know how to rivet the cracks."
Unfortunately none of the young
princes and nobles who had come as
suitors to the princess knew unything .at
all about how to rivet broken glass and
were none of tliem glaziers by profes
sion, so they had to return to their
native lands miserable and disappointed
lovers.
Among the royal pages in tho palace
was one whose term as page was shortly
to expire. He had still to carry the train
of the youngest princess three times, and
after that ho was to be promoted to a
full blown courtier.
On the first occasion when the page
had to carry the young princess' train
she glanced at him, and as their eyes
met she blushed. When next he carried
her train she waved her hand to him at
parting, and the unfortunate youth was
unable to sleep the whole of that night
in consequence!
The third time when the young fellow
bore the princess' train tho king came
forward to meet them half way and dis
missed the page, saying:
"You have done your duty now, young
man, and you may go. I thank you, and
have also to congratulate you ou your
promotion."
With that the king turned and walked
away, while the princess bent forward
to where the page stood, and said:
"You carried my train so beautifully
—better than any one else! Oh, why
are you not a king and a glazier?"
The unfortunate young man felt so
confused, as well as delighted, that he
was unable to utter a word in reply. He
managed, however, to make a very grace
ful and polite bow. When the princess
had left him he ran as hard as ever he
could to the nearest glazier, and asked
him whether he was in need of a fore
man.
"Yes," replied the other, "but you will
have to work four years with me before
you can be foreman. At first you must
be a sort of errand boy, and go to the
baker's to fetch me my bread, and also
to look after my children, wash ftiem
and dress thein. Secondly, you must
learn to putty the cracks; thirdly, you
will have to learn how to cut the glass
and fix in windows, and after that, in
the fourth year, you shall be my fore
man."
The page thought this would take
rather too long, BO he asked the glazier
whether he could not possibly begin
with cuttiug the glass and fixing win
dows, and leave out the rest so as to get
on quicker. But the glazier shook his
head and assured the young fellow that
every good glazier had to begin his
career from the beginning or he could
never be clever. So the page was obliged
to reconcile himself to his fate.
The whole of the first year the un
fortunate young courtier spent his time
iu running to the baker's for bread for
his master and in washing and dressing
the children. In the second year he did
nothing but stop cracks with putty. In
the third year he learned how to cut
glass and fix windows, and at last at the
commencement of the fourth year he
was made foreman.
After having been foreman for a
whole year he took leave of his master
and, dressing himself up once more in
court dress, he walked along the roads
in deep thought, wondering how he
could possibly become a king. As he
was walking on a man came toward
him and seeing that the young courtier
was in deep thought ho stopped and
asked him whether he had lost any
thing.
"Well, 1 don't know that 1 have ex
actly lost anything, but at any rate I
cannot find what I want."
"And what is that?"
"A kingdom. I am wondering how
on earth I can become a king."
"Well, if you had been a glazier,"
said the stranger, "I might have helped
you."
"That is just exactly what I am!" ex
claimed the other. "I have only lately
been foreman to a glazier."
"Then you have nothing to fear. You
are no doubt aware that our king de
cided some time ago to give his young
est daughter in marriage to a glazier
who was to be at the same time a king
or at any rate a prince; but as they have
been unsuccessful in finding such a per
son, the king lias been reluctantly ob
liged to modify his demands by adding
two other conditions. The bridegroom
must in any case be a glazier, that of
course goes without saying."
"But what are the two conditions:
asked the young courtier excitedly.
"The first condition is that he should
please the princess, and the second is
that lie should be a nobleman by birth.
There have already been a great num
l>er of glaziers applying at the palace,
but not one of them took the princess'
fancy and all of them had coarse, rough
hands liko those of the commonest gla
zier."
When our young courtier heard these
words lie jumped three times about a
yard aljove the road for very joy, and
then, turning around, ran belter skelter
back to tho town and presented himself
at the palace in less than no time.
The king at once ordered the princess
to be called, and when she arrived ho
asked her whether this young glazier
took her fancy.
The princess glanced at the young
man, and recognizing him at once, she
blushed and said, "Oh, yes."
The king ordered the young fellow to
take off his gloves ami show his hands,
so that they might know whether he
was of noble birth. However, the prin
cess said that it was quite unnecessary
for the young man to do anything of tiie
kind, as she felt perfectly certain that
there was 110 doubt whatever of his be
ing of noble birth, and that his hands,
she was sure, would be as white as those
of a prince.
So they wero married, and as the
young princess'husband was a glazier
by jirofession as well as a nobleman
by birth, lie understood how to treat a
heart so delicate and fragile as hers,
therefore she lived blissfully to the end
of her days without any accident hap
pening.
Tho king's second daughter, with tho
cracked heart, had tho pleasure of being
an aunt, and a very excellent aunt she
made too! She taught tho little princess
to read and write and make dresses for
her dolls; she also took a great interest
in the little prince's lessons, and when
he knew them well and had good marks,
liko a good little boy, then she would
praise him and make him all sorts of
pretty presents, and he would leave her
looking red and rosy and flushed witli
delight. When, on the contrary, he did
not know his lessons and his marki
were anything but good, then she would
be very different, and he would leave
her looking also very red and rosy, very
flushed, but not with delight.
This princess lived to a very old age,
notwithstanding that her heart was
cracked, ami if any one marveled at her
living HO long, she would answer them
as she had done her parents once liefore:
"Rememl>er, 'lt's the cracked pitcher
that goes oftenest to the well.'"—Strand
Magazine.
Still Obedient.
Gustave Dore was always a child, so
far as his mother was concerned. He
not only loved but obeyed her, and when
she died, he said, with sad sincerity,
that he 110 longer knew how to live. An
incident which shows her influence over
him, as a grown man, is connected with
a little party given by him to show some
of his friends an album of his own draw
ings.
At tho dinner, over which Mine. Dore
presided, a quarrel arose between Gus
tave and his brother Ernest. Suddenly
Mine. Dore turned to the former and
said, as though ho were a l>oy of ten:
"flush, Gustave! I am ashamed of
you."
Dore, who had worked himself, regard
less of the presence of his guests, into a
fierce passion, became at once calm and
silent, and bowing to his mother resumed
his dinner.
But the incident did not end here.
When the guests had retired to the great
salon the brothers disappeared, to return
in a few minutes, eacli holding an end
of the colossal album that was to be sub
mitted to tho company. Mme. Dore fol
lowed, smiling at her "little boys," who
were none the less children because they
had passed their fortietli year.—Youth's
Companion.
A I'll ruse That Will Not Die.
It is impossible to eliminate the phrase
"funeral obsequies" from tho news
papers. For years orders have been is
sued against it in newspaper offices;
proofreaders have l>een clubbed for let
ting it pass; rejiorters have been fined
and discharged for writing it, but all to
no purpose. It seems to be essential to
newspaper literature. Still, we shall
keep up a vigorous warfare upon the
stupidity.—New York Advertiser.
Feeding Spirit* on Cake*.
In Germany cakes were offered to the

j Going to Africa.
Great interest is exhibited in the pro
posed East African expedition of Mr.
William Astor Chanler. The Tama
river, which he proposes to follow, is in
habited along the lower part principally
by the Wa-Pokomo, a race which snl>-
sists by cultivation. The banks of the
river being low, the country on both
sides is annually inundated, and the
river thus acts as a liberal fertilizer.
Mr. Chanler has 110 easy task lief ore
him, as some of the tribes to le passed
in reaching Mount Kenia have had
their suspicions and hostility aroused
by the harsh and barbarous course of the
German explorer Dr. Peters.
He will start early in June in company
with Lieutenant Hohnel,of the Austrian
navy, and Count Tolaki, with the object
of careful scientific research and ob
servation in that region. They will
travel along the Tama river, resting for
some weeks at the snowcapped moun
tain of Kenia, where they will make
astronomical observations. After ex
ploring the mountain to its summit if
possible they will plunge into the almost
unknown regions of East Itudolph lake.
It was there that Baron Vecken was
murdered, and that Re viol, Respoli and
Ferrendi failed in their efforts to accom
plish their aims.
The region abounds in warlike tribes.
Mr. Chanler intends to enter the region
from the west, after leaving Lake Ru
dolph, and proceed along the Tubba
river to the sea. He expects to be ab
sent about eighteen months. He will
take with him his young servant, George
Galmin, who accompanied him through
Mashonaland. Mr. Chanler is full of
hope and will go fully equipped for his
perilous enterprise, which is expected to
have most interesting and valuable re
sults.—Philadelphia Leader.
A Tunic Duckling.
The extraordinary sight of a duckling
that has just shed its shell following a
young woman about the house with all
the affection of a pet dog is a domestic
wonder in the family of Mrs. Carr. Ever
since Easter morn the neighbors have
been dropping in to witness the spec- j
tacle, and the fame of the singular at
tachment has attracted attention among
people who are interested in natural
phenomena of every description.
The little duckling has been in the
family since Easter Sunday, when it
was brought as a gift to Mrs. Carr's
baby daughter, Serena, aged four years,
who was delighted with her new pet. <
The duck at once struck up a long 1
friendship for the domestic, Mary Mc- i
Cullough, and has been the young worn- 1
an's constant companion ever since. ;
Whenever Mary sjieaks the duck re- '
spends with the piping salutation and
waddles after the young woman wher
ever she goes. The most astonishing
thing about this freak of nature is that j
if any other inmate of the household ,
attempts to induce it to answer, the
webfooted prodigy maintains a solemn !
silence, but Mary has only to utter a \
word when the quacking begins and is
kept up until she has ceased speaking.—
Philadelphia Times.
Mary's Claim.
A little girl is reported to have died
near the imaginary line in Oklahoma
which divided the recently opened res- !
servations from the remainder of the
territory just as the signal was given for
the grand rush for lands. The child and
her father were alone and unknown, but
the beauty of the one and the still, deep i
grief of the other moved the strong men
of the frontier to acts of admirable sym
pathy.
A runner 011 a swift horse located a
homestead, and returning placed the ]
father of the dead girl in possession of
it. The body of the child was trans
ported to the claim and buried upon it.
Afterward it was discovered the re
maining one of the unfortunate couple
was absolutely penniless, and a purse of
money was given him with the hope that
the claim will prove a haven of rest to ,
him and that the homestead shall al- !
ways be known as "Mary's claim."—

Deuth from Ingrowing Too Null.
Some time ago there was published
tho story of the death of a Long Island
physician from blood poisoning result- j
ing from an ingrowing toe nail. A well
known surgeon chiropodist said the
other day to the reporter: "The death of
that Long Island doctor is not tho first I
have heard of from tho samo cause.
"The cause of the disease is common
and painful and usually directly trace

tion for ingrowing toe nail in an English

much pain that they gave him a mixture
of ether and chloroform. The operation (
was successful, but whyn it was finished
the physicians found that their patient
had died from the chloroform."—New

To Preserve an Alpine Flower.
The diet of the Tyrol last week passed
a bill imposing heavy fines upon persons
found selling any sample of the beauti
ful but rare Alpine flower called edel
weiss, which has been pulled up by the j
roots on the mountains. A similar act
was passed seven years ago by the diet
of Salzburg, with a view to the preserva- ,
tion of the edelweiss plant, which is
threatened with extinction in the Ans- j
trian Alps. In the Salzburg district the
success of this legislation is, unfortu
nately, not encouraging.
Gri'Ht SriiHon for Herring*.
The herring fishing season on the Sus- !

May 10. One fisherman caught 100 bar- I
rels of the fish with a dipnet in the out

Centenary of the Guillotine.
I Murderers and cutpurses from the
dangerous districts about the Pantheon
and Pere Lachaise have been known to
• compose and sing grimly humorous bal
| lads in honor of the guillotine when in
their cups. These people will hardly,
however, go so far its to celebrate tho
hundredth anniversary of the first execu
tion in Paris by the instrument of de
capitation which the "Constituanfce"
adopted on the motion or Dr. Ghiillotin,
who had seen the machine at work in
Italy. The doctor's idea in introducing
the hois de justice was purely philan
( j tlirophic, for he wanted to do away with
' the slow tortures inflicted upon crim
inals. On May 27, 1792, the first crirn
i inal, a highwayman, was executed on
the Place de Greve, now the Place
de l'Hotel de Ville. This is the date
L given by Larousse, but other authorities
! state that Monday, April 25, was the
1 100tli anniversary of the first execution
> : by the guillotine in Paris.
; In any case the terrible instrument
was destined to 1H busy during 1793 on
the heads of persons more illustrious
than the common highwayman named
i Peletier. For this reason some of the
1 modern sympathizers with the Terror
■ ist-s, supposing tliem to have the blood
; thirsty intention of celebrating the cen
tenary of the guillotine, would be
i inclined to fix the date of their com
■ 1 memorative ceremony on Jan. 21 next,

five miles below Pablo when they saw

I They at once started to capture the

inches in length and 2 feet 10 inches

Slavery in the Pacific.
! That slavery still exists in the Pacific
i is evidenced by the fact that the steamer
j Moneserrat is fitting out for a blackbird
cruise, and will sail shortly for Gilbert
j island, whence it will carry a hold full
j of natives to work on the Guatemala
. coffee plantations.
j All this is to be done under the guise
of an equitable contract.
I Last September the brig Tahite, load
ed with 100 Gilbert islanders, and noto
riously a slaver, was blown off its course
i and put in at Duke's bay. Learning that
( it was likely to be seized, its captain
j put hurriedly to sea and the next that
| was heard of it was when sighted bot
torn up off the coast, all its crew and
cargo having perished. The same have
| planned the Moneserrat's slaving cruise,
i hoping to recoup themselves.

In a Florida Garden.
i Lovers of the beautiful, the beautiful
i in plant life, should pay a visit to a
1 garden belonging to a private house at
the corner of Market and Church streets.
1 To say that it is a blaze of color is to
convey but a faint idea of it; scarcely a
bare spot of ground is to be seen for the
length of an entire block—roses, pinks,
' calleopsis, phlox, pansies, sweet alyssum,
1 all thrusting forward their claims for
recognition. But the crowning glory of
the garden is its poppies; surely such
poppies never grew anywhere else than
j right here in Jacksonville and in that
I one garden. They are of all shades,
from delicate pinks to deepest reds, and
as double as it is possible for flowers to
I be. They grow from two to three feet
high and the flowers themselves are at
: least three inches in diameter. That
, garden is worth a walk to see.— Jackson
