Our motto: "Live and Let Live," "Do 8s you are done by." USEFUL SCIENCE. HoW CWrosoph-T ChuhoI a Discreet Lover -to Commit Himself. It was cold and bleak without, but warm and bright within. They sat sida by side near the glowing grate and watched the fficktr.lng firelight- as- it danced among the bric-a-brac on the-tahle. They were both in deep thought, and no sound Was heard save the sighing of the wind among the trees in the orchard and the measured tick of tho ormolu clock which rested on a bracket against the opposite wall, and over' which was suspended a snow-shovel-covered with violet velvet and trimmed with pink satin ribbons.

"It was not an hour nor a scene for aught Hut love unci calm dt-light." The youth was manly in appearance- and the maiden a vision of beauty, and. judging from their attitude and cdja-cency they were lovers. Suddenly the maiden broke the silence, the poetic-silence: "Have yon heard of this new wience called chirosophy?" she asked, in tones-sweeter than the musical tinkling of a silver bell. "I have, darling," he answered, in-accents of iveiiable tenderness; "not only heard of it, but have given it considerable study." "Dear me!" exclaimed the maiden. "I am surprised.

You ve studied chirosophy? Then perhaps you will give me some instruction in the science?" "Certainly, my own. Please let me -have your hand." George?" murmured the maiden, overwhelmed with confusion ami crimson with blushes; "this is so sudden." "What is so sudden?" the youth asked, in surprise. "Your asking for my hand," tremblingly responded the maiden. "But- there what can I do but refer you to pa, and, believe me, dearest, yon need have no fear of the result. He wlfl certainly consent to my becoming your-wife." Then, throwing herself on the neck' of her lover, the maiden gave vent to her emotions in a flood of happy tears.

How Many Oood t'n and YVouirti 3raH Thenm-iveg Unpopulnr. "There are people," said an old divine, "who lead ns heavenward, but they stick pins in us all the way." Of these was a certain English poet, whose hymns have strengthened many a fainting soul. But the poet had such a habit of sniffling and hawking, that his best friends couid scarcely endure his company. Of these, too, was a well-known American woman, foremost in tbe last generation as a reformer and philanthropist. Nobody ever doubted her purity of soul or the power of her intellect; her name now is cited as that of one of the most brilliant eonversers which America ever produced.

But in reality she talked as soon as she had a moment's cessation, raising her voice to drown any reply which was ventured. Friend and foe wearied of the never-ending clatter, of which was both the center and circumference. Of this unfortunate class, too, are many obscure good people, such, for example, as Godfrey C- He began, like Hercules, to be a hero in his cradle. Even as a baby he was generous, and bore pain without a whimper. As a man ho waslarge-natured, liberal, the leader in every helpful work in his State, faithful to his family, for whom he drudged until his strength failed from overwork and he died in middle age.

Yet it taxed the patience of friend, wife or child to be an hour iu the company of this earnest, affectionate man. Ho would bang doors, he would clap a sk-I; woman on the back, he would shout out inquiries as to your deafness or poverty before a room full of people; he shoveled his food into his mouth with his knife, he wore coats and shirts stained with tobacco, he discussed your private affairs whenever he met you. Yet he never understood why his wife was ashamed of him, or why his children managed to keep him out, of their little parties. He went to his grave with a sore heart because of these hurts. Much of the misery of life comes to men and women because of little disagreeable traits which obscure, their real character, precisely as a mist does a fine mirror.

Such traits are usually only the result of a stubborn self-will. They are petty habits, acquired in childhood, which the boy refuses to give up simply because they are his own. God, who sees the heart, looks beneath these outward appearances, but the world too often sees no deeper than the surface, and judges the mac by them. "Youth's Cnmrmrtinn. THE TLAXCAlaNS.

The Thrifty Inhabitant of tho Oldest He-publio In the New World. In Central Mexico not very far from the capital lies the oldest republic of the New World. It is Tlaxcala. the proudest city of all Mexico. It is purely Indian in origin and government.

This strange people remained uncouquered until the Spaniards forced their entrance in 1519, and then Cortes treated them as national allies rather than enemies. He turned theirindomitahlecour-age and wonderful skill in his favor and against their hereditary foes, the Aztecs, and was thus enabled to finally subdue the Montezumas. The friendship of tho Tlaxcalans once pledged is invincible, and the Spanish relied on their promise to convey timber for his ships over the mountains to Texcoco Lake, and thereon he built tho licet that gave to Spain her great American possessions. Tlaxcala is perched up among the high mountains and rendered impregnable by nature on three sides and fortified by an enormous wall on the fourth, whiehdefied the attacks of the Aatccs in many wars. The people have the air and manner of freeman and aro inordinately proud of their ancient and honorable lincr.gr.

For the i ivuiincut part taken in tho conquest by tho Tlaxcalans Spain conferred on them exclusive privileges, and to this day they maintain them. None but full-blooded Indians sit in their Senate, and their Government is torn pored by wisdom and moderation. In 1522 Spanish priests went over to Mexico, and soon tho caciques or chiefs of the Tlaxcalans became Christians and were baptized under Christian names, and that is why ho many Indians have European cognomens. The Tlaxcalans are very exclusive and rarely mingle with tho outside world, and that is why wo were surprised to see ono among the Indian nrtisans nt tho Aztec fair. His name is Knmon Iluet-ta, and probably is tho only full-blooded Tlaxeahin who over left ids native land voluntarily.

Ho was born In tho cap. Hal city, and in early life served in their little army of defense but so seldom did tho waves of revolution roll up among their crags that ho became tired of inaotivo military duty and adopted tho trado of silversmith. His phlcg. tnatio poi'sovoranno soon mastered his calling, and ho begun to elaborate, and mo nkillful whs his work that it was sent to Mexico City forsalo nnd this brought him to the notieo of the Aztec fair man-agement. Tho Tlaxcalans are extreme ly phlegmatic and Ilum ta is no exception.

Sitico leaving his native city he has soon all the wonders of our program slvo land, and yet nothing calls from liim uu expression of wonder or admiration, but undoubtedly he will carry back many a strange talo of his adven.
