A Portrait of the Pope.

Under the title of “Souvenire dun ' Journaliste Francais a Rome,” M. Henri des Houx, whose intimate relations with the Vatican are well known, has just written an interesting book on the ins and outs of the Vatican “ prison.” Here is his sketch of the Pope himself:—

a gracefuland kingly gesture. He has ‘a merry mouth, His ‘smile does not possess that sardonic Voltairian expres- sion found in so many of his photographs. On the contrary, it is rather gentle and paternal, His eyes are very black and brilliant. His features, ascetic and strongly marked, have become benevo- lent and engaging. He must have had great difficulty to accommodate his coun- tenance, such as nature made it, .0 the august role of Holy Fathership. Per-

Mind in Farming.

The idea has generally prevailed in the past, and possibly more by farmers than others, that for the business of farming but little intellectual training was necessary. A willingness to work on the old routine, that has been transmit- ted from’ the practices of the past, was all that could be sately relied on for suc- cess. This narrow view, born and kept alive by ignorance only, is a mistaken fallacy of the past, fast dying out, rather than the sentiment of intelligent, present thought. The agriculture of to-day is not based on mantal labor alone. The educa- tion of the mental faculties, as well as the training of the hand to work skill- fully,is recognized as an essential in fit- ting for the life work of the farm. Upon thése, intelligence and labor combined, rest the hopes of progress in agriculture.

haps the soul of a Pope modifies! the exterior © lineaments in the long rub, like St. ‘Francois des Sales, who was born dogmatic,

but who became, by continual and self- subjection, an angel of sweetness. Leo. XUL, on being made Pope, must have overcome, or at last subdued a violent character. His Holiness is still vigor- ous in spite of his leanness and senile’ trembliag. His hair is white and ar-| ranged in curls over his temples. His cassock seems to envelop only the shadow of a body, just enough humanity to hold) a soul. He speaks very slowly, particu- | larly when he speaks French.

has to call on his momory, which is ex- cellent. This slowness gives a singular reliet to the utterances of Pope Leo. The action precedes rather than accom- panies the word. With his arm extend- ed, he seems to invite the whole universe to come and receive his thoughts. The oratorical action of His Holiness is in reality a curious study. It can hard- ly be called classicg but it gives to his speech an academic breadth and impassioned vivacity not to be found in the printed text. Nobody readiug the allocutions would ever imagine the effect they produced on delivery. —Pall Mail Gazette.

Common Sense for Young Girls. It should be the pride and ambition of every girl to develop into a true woman ; or, iu another form, it should be the pride and fixed determination of every girl to be true to her womanly instinct, to resist the approach of evil, to be true to her sex und tothe race. No higher encom. ium can be given you after your earthly race is run by those who are left behind than to say of you as they shed the tear of affection over your bier, you were a true woman. Whatever else is desirable for you to have, to enjoy, to attain, is nothing in comparison with the halo of glory belonging to any one of your sex —that gives greater lustre to character— who isatrue woman. The foundation for this is laid in you girlhoud period— during the years of youth called the ‘blushing period” of your days.

The first essential to attain to true womanhood is to commence the work at home. The home circle is the place for you in which to lay a solid foundation. No place on earth must be as dear and sacred to you as home—the fireside, be it ever so homely. ‘The father’s fireside is the safest spot on which to spend your leisure hours. Appreciate it aright, and you will not have cause for sighs and reproaches and bitter lamentation in after life.

Be a good daughter. Honor your father and your mother above everybody else on earth. Do so because it is right and eminently proper in itself. It is best todo so. Try day in and day out to do something to gladden the heart of your mother and draw the eye of your father in admiration upon you. Consult your parents before taking any important step in life. No girl loseth by making the wishes of her parents the law by which to act. Remember that they know far better what is for your true interest than you possibly can know.

The Country Editor.

The man who edits the only paper ina country town leads a dull and monotonous existence. There is no writhing, crawling, detestable and mendacious contemporary at whom to hurl thunderbolts of denuncia- tion ; no bald-headed babboon whose frothy ravings and outlandish gibberish he can hold up to popular ridicule ; no slimy rep- tile, wallowing in filth, of which he can bid his esteemed fellow-citizens beware. Be- yond an occasional criticism, necessarily mild, on the appointment of a field driver or a fence viewer, his columns are free | from the fire that sometimes glows at white heat in the pages of the locai joursal. He is everybody's friend, and pursues the even tenor of his way, with few anxieties except- ing those that are created by delinquent | subscribers. —Boston Courier.

And yet it may be questioned if farmers fully appreciate the value to their chil- dren of a home training and education in the work and in the business of the

farms. Each year there go out from the farms young men and women to assume the work of managing farms for themselves, Are these

young men and women as well educated and trained in the work and busi- ness affairs of the farm as they, the sons and daughters of farmers, ought, with their opportunities, to be? We fear there is yet too much of indifference in parents in teachiag their children the business of farming, not only as a trade, but as a profession. It ought to be kept constantly in view that the training ‘and education needed by the farmer can Jargely be learned at home, and that the practical knowledge thus gained will be of inestimable value; so much Capital with which to begin the business of farming.— Maine Farmer. ea Murder Will Out.

Abont eight months ago a man named Marunge,. a well-to-do, hard-working mason, living at Charlottenburg, Ger- many, suddenly disappeared.,, His wife reported the circumstances to the police, who made an unsuccessful search for any traces of the missing man. The occurrence was well nigh forgotten, , when @ few days ago some children who were playing in the cellar under the house formerly occupied by the Marunges

discovered a piece of sackiug sticking up through the earth of the cellar floor. The smell was horrible. The police were notified, and the remains of the missing man were found io a sack. The widow and her sous, Albert and Her- mann, were arrested aud broughi to trial, when it was clearly established that Marunge had been deliberately murdered by his son Albert, who struck him on the head with a heavy mallet while he lay asleep in bed. The woman was present and assisted in putting the body into the sack and carrying it down to the cellar. There was no evidence against Hermann, and he was acquitted, but the mother and other son were sen- tenced to death,

Religious Fanaticism.

On Saturday,3rd inst.,at Birch Harbor, Gouldsboro, Me., Mrs. Chas, Lindsey chopped off her left hand with an axe. For a week previous she had shown signs of insanity, Some religious iaterest prevails in the village and she had spoken in meeting. She read the Bible much and repeated passages from it. She made an attempt to destroy ove of her eyes but failed. Saturday fore- noon she was heard repeatedly to say, “And if thy right hand offend thee cut it off and cast it from thee.” About noon her husband’s mother,then stopping with her, leaving the house just to cross a field,had got only about a hundred yards away when Mrs. Lindsey ran out to the wood pile, and with two blows of an axe severed from ier arm her hand leaving it lying beside the chopping block. She ran tothe house screaming, “Save me, God save me.” A physican was im- mediately called, and Sunday at noon she was comfortable but still insane. She is a young woman ic the twenties with a family of tour small children.

The Sheriffs Basket.

A Nevada Sheriff, Mr. Fellows, was iarried the other day and sent to the editor of the Winnemucca Silver State, a basket of champagne. After a few bottles, the editor was able to write this address to the happy pair :‘‘May life's cares upon them rest as softly as the fall of autumnal leaves upon the breast of Mother Karth; and, like the stars, which in early evening faintly glimmer, and then, anon, throw forth their dazzling beauty to the world’s admiring gaze from the far-off heavenly fields, so may their pathway adown the trends of matrimonial bliss be adornea with sweetest flowers of affection’s worth, ever opening their rosy petals to reflect continued lustre as the waning years roll stealthily away.
