In some of the estimatesdof the late `Mr. Parnell by his political colleagues it was as- serted that he never read a novel, and it was almost a boast with the late Samuel J. Ran- dall that he had not read a novel or a poem since he was a young man of 30.

Both thesemen had what is known as practical minds. Both came to distinction because of the fact that that they had given special attention to poli- tics, the one as the leader of a. great agita- tion in which neither wide knowledge nor lively imagination was absolutely required. Both were persistent men, devoted to a single object, knowing and caring little that did not contributegdirectly to their pur- poses. nn+ znnan :n 4-Lodn nouna IHLII n'rru1]r1 inn an But even in their cases who would be so bold as to assert that a. judicious cultivation of imaginative literature as presented to the world by its best minds would not have contributed to their success by giving them more and wider knowledge of mankind. and, as a. result, more power. It is not diicult to believe that a. knowledge of the literature produced in such great perfection during the past half century would have strengthened them where they were defective, and have made both of them more useful to the World, and more cheerful while passing through it.

Such men. and those who use them as examples for the remainder of mankind, make the mistake of thinking that nothing `is practical or useful that does not directly command votes or money or ap- plause They forget that as the body must needs be fed on something more than meat, so the mind must also have a variety of foods. If Mr. Parnell, in his closing days of loneliness. or Mr. Randall, when he saw himself defeated in the race for great honors, could have found refuge in a `study of the masterpieces of imaginative `literature, how different might have been the feelings and sentiments of each 3- A`-.. ...-_- `l:l-...1..

Richard M.LComyn. one of the proprie- tors of the Paris Times Review newspaper and its editor tried to commit suicide in; the American Hotel of that town VVednesday morning. He had been away and return- ing, instead of going home he put up at the hotel. Before retiring he asked for some writing materials which were given to him. When the orter went to arouse Comyn he found the oor of his bedroom locked, which was broken open. Comyn was found in the bed gasping for breath. Dr. McEwan was promptly on the spot, saw that poison had een taken and acted accordingly. Two and a half hours work saved the man s life He had taken laudanum. A note was found stating|he was tired of life; and hoped his rela- tives and friends would forgive him for the deed he was about to commit. - I'll!-I1 IIVUI anus no-gnu-- v-:-. While on duty in Montreal the other day Constable Malhiot saw two men who were very drunk driving towards the Catholic cemetery. One of the men carried in his arms a small coin. When near Ogi1vie s mill both men fell out and the carriage up- set. The little coin also fell out and rolled over several times down the steep hill. The coin and men were taken by the constable to the station and the owner of the coffin said he lived at Point St. Charles. The other man was his friend. Both were so drunk they could hardly speak. Word was sent tothe son who procured a new rig and took the coffin to the cemetery. The Tottenham village paper intimates that there will be diiculty about the school rate in the township this veer.

His means of borrowing seemed exhausted, and his old- time economy had apparently ed beyond recall. He was involved in a dozen difficul- ties, but had hitherto managed, on his" original plan of borrowing from Peter to pay Paul, to keep his credit from utterly falling to pieces. But the sums necessary were larger ` now, and harder to manage. And l1ere`temp- tation seizml upon him.

He was more frightened than he had ever been before in his life, and nearly fainted away when, one day, P,ay proposed to go with him to the factory and make an inspection. He succeeded in putting oi! the- cutastrophe for a time long enough to give him an opportunity to consider. Ruin of the \vu1`St kind stared him in the face.

Another summer came, and wore away, very unhappily for Russell. He was continually pressed `by, debts and dith- eulties, and he had no friend to whom he dared confess himself freely, asking 3 the advice he needed. Indeed, Russell had madeno hf_x'_"iends, amo1ig his recent associates, partly because he -had_,drift_fed into an "entra- vagant and light-headed set gwith few attrac- tive men in it, but more because he was too deeply engrossed iaviththis own affairs to per- mit_of_ a warm interest in others. He `co n- tinued\to 'see, Rayfrequently, but he was too much afraid of the old man s irascible "temper to ta._ke_ advantage of the help that Ray was in reality always ready to give._ ` 7"].-`Ann 1 nnnn u.-( Fnun-uni!

Ll.lU.lg . . , , . In the early fall, whenia. little chill creeps into the air, and fires are rekindled under the great st: w-pan of. politics, a scheme which Ray and Russell had formulated during the summer began to broaden and assume de- nite shape. " ' - ,-I ,,- __;1.'A:.._..r :..lI.....:.n 1' uuiw suupu . ' We shall need some political inuence in working this motor right, Ray had said. VVhy don t you go into politics a. little?

Russell had replied that he would just as - lief go into politics as any thing else, and he had looked about him for an opportunity. It was not hard to nd. He had become a member of the Pocahontas Club, an organiza- tion having a handsome house on Great South Bay, L. I., and including among its members ? manycpractical politicians. The Pocahontas was ostensibly a shing club and was devoted to both branches of the sport. Some of its members were expert shermen and only in- different drinkers, while others cared little for rod and line, but could absorb more al- coholic poison between Saturday night and Monday morning than any other set of men on earth, and took pride in it. They were an inuential body, politically, and the club- house was a great place to get pointers. When two or three members had been indulg- ing rather too freely, and began to rake up each other s records, they furnished any Listener with valuable inside information as to successful political methods. `[).-.....J1 -on-us v\nn11`nI' in 0111}!

He had .been an `alderman for a good many years previous to the Eighty-ninth "street railway expose, but had been treated coldly by the organization since that time.

A pro- tection of this sort serves very well for a while, but presently its material begins to decompose, and the decaying leaves attracts the ies, which the orang is so anxious to get rid of. Then he is obliged to make an- other nest of fresh stuff, and so he may re- quire `dozens of them in the.course of a year.

In their conflicts among them"- selves, which are frequent, their effort is always to seize the fingers of their adver- saries and bite them. A very beautiful group of these animals at the National Mu- seum, monnted by Mr. Hornaday, admir- ably illustrates a typicalencounter of the sort. It is owing to this method of battle that it is almost impossible to procure a. skin which does not lack some of the fin- gers. If defending itself against a man the beast will always attempt to grab the arms" of his human opponent, so as to chew off his ngers. For this purpose its jaw is excel- lently adapted, being enormously powerful and equipped with huge incisors. _ u'l`ka. Foamy-i+.. fnml nf the nnnnor in tha anu equippeu wwu uugu unumuia. The favorite food of the opang is the `durion fruit, which is, perhaps, the most delicious in the world, uniting as it does, the avors of the peach, the pear and the strawberry. Like most things nearly per- feet, however, this fruit has a drawback-- namely. that it leaves a. taste in the mouth the next day after it is_ eaten which is more abominable than can either be described or conceived. To protect itself from the rain the orang crooks its arms over its head. Theehair on the orang s upper arm points downward, while on the lower arm it points upward, the apparent purpose being to shed the rain like a thatch when the attitude I have` described is assumed.
