In England an entirely different nyxtem in in vogue. Breukfust ut an English hoarding school in a labstantial meal, wrved at 7 o'clock. In most cosca it eouslHts of fish, ham or baoon, eggn and porridgo three or four times a week, with plenty of milk and augur. Dinner ut 1 o'clock is a most solid repast, lack ing, however, in a sufficiency of green vegetables. Supper at 6 o'olock ia main ly farinaceous. ' It consists of tea, bread and butter Dr. Suvory, medical offloer of Huileybury college, in England, in a paper treating of this subject, soya that it is the compluint of English teaohera that tbe work done by aohoolboya after dinner ia not of much use. The doctor thinks that it is unfortu nate thut they cannot have a half holi day every day to digest their dinner. He would also allow a glass of mild beer, ilo found thut about one boy in roar drank two glusans of it in summer, He thinks it unwise to absolutely for bid aloohol, as a boy always craves that wbich is forbidden. At French board lug schools the pupils drink light claret mizod with water at every meul except the first, breakfast. The nutrition of French schoolboys is thoroughly adapt eci to their habits and environment The English iu feeding theirs believe in bulk in food as more conducive to di tfostinii and tho demunds of intense muscular effort exuoted by tho atblotio "xeroiscs in which they indulge. New York Sun. A STORY OF LONGFELLOW, Iu Maurlcr and Morris. One of tho most extraordinary parol Ida in chronology ia the almost exact coincidence of the time spent in the world by two men who had so much to do with the molding of the literature and art of their day aa George Da Man rier and William Morris. Du Muurier, the elder of the two, was born exaotly 10 days before Morris, on March 0, 1884, aud be diod but fonr days after him ; so that tinge two great men, who lived more than 63 years, were oil the earth ' for exaotly the same time, with the ex- I'Pptioii of loss than throe weeks, both being born in March, 1834, and dying in October, 1890. Similarly, both Sir John Millais and the archbishop of Uantcrbury, who have died within a month or two of each othor, were born in 1830. It ia ono of the most striking events in the loug history of the aroh liishopa of Canterbury that the late ;i roll bishop, who waa one of Mr. Glad .'itoue'a appointments and afterward di verged from him in political opinions, should have bceu stricken while sitting in the squire's pew of his old friond at lluwardun. It ia a most merciful thing that Mr. Gladstone did not happen to lie in church. To a man of his yeara tho ihock must have been most dangerous. What an archbishop of Canterbury Mr. '.'ludstone would have made himself! tfo would have rivaled evonDunstan or iJockot and not improbably proved the xroatest prolate of thorn all. New Or iouua Times-Domocrut. Cars For Tour Shoes. Nover try to wear a shoe too small or 'hut docti not fit wheu you first put it mi. There is no misery more nearly dis 'routing than a shoe thut hurts the foot. Nover let your shoes get hard and dry. Don't let thorn run over. Don't lot the lieols run down. Don't dry a wet shoe ill you have rubbed it well with a flan nel cloth and then with vaseline. Nover put near tbe stove. Half a peck of oats, 'opt in a small box, will be tho very I'beapest and best foot form for a wet "hoe. Fill tho shoe and shako the outs town, after having rubbed and oiled it, ind got in n dry place to dry gradually. When dry, pour the oats back for further we. Do not "black upon blacking" uore than a week at a time. Tako a vet rag aud wash the shoe ut least once t week and oil overnight to keep iu ;ood condition. Nover hundlo patent leather until yon have warmed it. Nov r wonr rubbers with good shoos. I'ut on old shoes in wot weather.

Speaking of Longfellow, in her vol ume of litorary reminiscences, Mrs. Jane J. Fields says : "His kindness aud love of humor car riod him through many a tedions inter ruption. He generously overlooked the 1 fact of the subterfuges to which men aud women resorted in order to got an interview, aud, to help them out, made as much of their excuses aa possible. Speaking one duy of the persons who came to see him at Nuhaut, he said: 'One man, a perfect stranger, came with an omuibui full of ladies. He descend ed, introduced himself; then, returning to the omnibus, took out all tbe ladies, ono, two, three, four and five, with a little girl, and brought them in. I en tertained them to the best of my ability, and thoy stuld an hour. They bad scarce ly gone when a forlorn woman in black came up to me on tbe piazza and asked for a dipper of water. "Certainly," I replied, and went to fetch her a glass. Whon I brought it, she said: "There is another womun just by the fence who is tired and thirsty. I will carry this to her." But she struck her head as she passed through tbe window and spilled the water on the piazza. "Ob, what have I done I" she said. "If I had a floorcloth, I would wipe it up." "Oh, no matter about tbe water," I said, "if you have not hurt yourself." Then I went and brought more water for them both aud sent them on their way re freshed and rejoicing. ' It would be both an endless and un profitable task to recall more of the ca rious experiences which coouluritv brought down upon him. There is a passage among Mr. Fields' notes, how ever, in which he describes an incident during Longfellow's last visit to Eng land which should not be overlooked. Upon his arrival tbe queen sent a grace ful message and invited him to Windsor oastle, where she received him with all the honors, but he told me uo foreign tribute touched him deeper than the words of an English hod carrier who came up to the carriage door at Harrow and asked permission to take the hand of the man who had written the 'Voices of the Night.'

What brings about tbe end of books? Is it fire, water, worms? As every ship launched is bound to be wrecked, every tueuter to be burned, the finis of the book is its reduction to ashea What be came of the Alexandrian library? Did the Saracens burn it in 640?- Thtfre is this question asked : Wag there any li brary at Alexandria containing 700,000 books? Gibbon inclines to tbe opinion thut there was no suoh library. Canon Taylor insists that if there had been a library it was burned iu the time of Ju lius Caesar. Truditiou seems to indicate, however, thut there was a library in the Serapeam, by no means a large col lection, but whether dostroyed by The- ophilns or Theodosius is not known. It looks as if the charge brought aguinst the Araba rested on no foundation. Re cent explorations of Alexandria, 1805-0, show no traces of the Serapeam. The seaport of Egypt was built on a damp foundation, and, granting that th6re was a library, if not destroyed by fire, then tbe papyri might have suffered from decay due to water.
