f Business Rush.
Take a run over to London and there
try to do business before 10 and 11 in
the morning, and learn how impossible
it will be, because the Englishman is
thoroughly imbued -with the idea that
business is an incident of and not the
Sole aim and end of life. There is no na>
tion of the world wherein' work is regarded as it ia with ns; no other nation
"lives that it- may Work," as we do.
They "work that they may live;" they
thoroughly live while they live. "We toil
and slave that we may leave money to
those who, because of our very work,
will not inherit the vital strength to
properly utilize and enjoy it.
Individual exceptions might seem to
negative our assertion, but we are not
dealing with individuals, bnt our nation
as a whole, and as a whole we fear not
contradiction of the assertion that the
great American nervous system is in a'
deplorable condition of prostration, and
that this lamentable condition of affairs
has been the direct ontcome of our
methods of work, particularly during
the past 80 years.—New Orleans Times-
Democrat.
_ Circumventing Them.
Before '"'Bismarck reconstructed, the
map of Europe, and made a united Germany, a dozen little principalities nsed
to annoy travelers by retaining them at
their frontiers nntil they had satisfied,
tbe custom house demands,
A\ Yankee once had his carriage stopped at the frontier of a petty prince's
country. The herr ober-controlenr at
the custom house came forward, and,
much to his indignation, was received
in a nonchalant way. The Yankee was
nngentlemanly enough not to get out of
the carriage, nor even take off his hat.
The herr ober sharply demanded the
keys of the tourist's trunks, which his
subordinate began handling roughly.
"Here, hands off!" shouted the Yankee. "I didn't come from the United
States of America to be controlled by
you. Put those trunks back. I'll not go
through yon at alL I'll turn back. I'm
in no hurry, and don't mind losing a
few hours. You're no country, you're
only a spot. I'll go round yon." And he
did.—Strand Magazine.
Ste Tried It a Second Time.
A new story of the late John P.
Spanlding, illustrating his unlimited
generosity and original methods of distributing it, was told the Saunterei* the
other day.
The "sugar king" of Broad street was
a confirmed bachelor, as everybody well
knew. His brother, the late Mahlon D.
Spanlding, nsed to live in Beacon street,
and was the father of a happy family.
At the birth of the first child word was
sent to the rich uncle that the boy had
been named after him, "John P. Spanlding, 2d." Uncle John responded with a
check for $10,000. A couple of years
later another heir was born, this time a
girl, and Uncle John was again notified
that the little daughter had been named
after him. This was a stickler for the
nncle, and he wrote for particulars. A
day or two afterward he received a reply, something in these words: "There
is really no mistake. We named onr little daughter 'Spanlding'—after yon."
Uncle John sent another §10,000 check.
—Boston Budget.
Illustrating a Sermon.
A north country clergyman once made
clear even to the dullest of his flock the
difficulty of treading the straight and
narrow path, as contrasted with descent
on the spacious highway leading in the
other direction. Before he was well
started in his discourse he ran down the
pulpit stairs and proceeded to suit the
action to the word.
"My brethren," he cried, "the road
to heaven is like this." And lying flat
on the banister he began to pull himself
up, hand over hand, as laboriously as a
boy climbs as greased pole.
At last he. reached the top, and got
on his feet again, happy in his Christian
victory. Then, having taken breath, he
exhorted his hearers to look at the road
to the other place, doubled one leg nn-
der him and slid down ihe rail in a
half sitting posture with a rapidity and
grace that betrayed a juvenile familiarity with the route.—Pearson's "Weekly.
