One of tha rarest, and therefore, moat conspicuous, faculties, in tha conduct of human affairs, ia the art of minding one's own businese- Until tha talent is actually acquired, and systematically applied, it ia hard to realize tha com pensating value of it, a a personal as set. Soma one should endow a Chair of Taciturnity in one of the great uni versities and so begin the initiation of - tha American people into a habit they hara kng needed. This is a peculiar stand for- a newspaper to take, of course, when it is the cardinal aim of tha presa to "butt in" on everyone' business with the expectation of get ting something to write about; but, all the same, tha virtue of wise reserva tion, and the less frequent utterance of irresponsible and hurtful statement, would injure no one, and raise the tone of the newspaper itrflf, for then what was said, and written, would have th sanction of tacit truth. Pil'nt men are not always truthful men, but they lie the least, and are respected for the quality. The rule of the day is am biguity, and 'aside from its inherent falsity, is responsible for tha endless tissue of lies that encompasses human society. To niiml one's own business does not necessarily mean that human intercourse is to cease; it simply re stricts tin propensity for interfering and lying, now so universal, by tho-e who hare no business to mind save someone else's. There are limes and junctures when it behooves even the most reticent of mortals to unbosom themselves and tell so much of their private affairs as is expedient to the moment, but this crisis is not always recogniad; in fact there are those who Th street cara in Valparaiso are all double-deckers, and the conductors are women.

If the agricultural department suc ceeds with its experiment to develop hens which will lay eggs every day in the year it ought to diminish the dispo sition to shv the old eggs at that branch of the government service.

The Parliament of Australia had an all night ion recently. It must have been a iicturexiue proceeding. The ringing of bells, which occurred at fre quent interval when a vigilant member drew att ntion to t'ne absence of quorum, "supplied a kind of triangle accompaniment to the trombone-like potes of the elcepcrs." Under these rircituistsnces, tin remark of Joseph Cook, who complained loudly of the "dumb, dead silence" of the sleeping members, niti't have been ironical. The s le pers were unmovd, however. The postmaster-general was in charge of the bill, but, we a iv told, his "head began to fall gracefully forward upon bis breast, and he pulled up his collar, as if seeking moM warmth." Mr. Cook was naturally indignant. "Ilere ia the minister ia charge of these proposals loeping like a bird with his head upon statement of cost is given which shows tint macadam roads average cost of 65 cents per square yards; sand and clay roads cost fl cents; burnt clsy, 20 cents, and shell, 24 cents per square yard. o Comulaints are made that ths ruml mail delivery service costs the govern ment (42,000,000 annually more than it brings in. No doubt some of the men and pupers who are the louikt in their denunciation of such expenditure are clamoring for a reduction of letter postage to one cent and the privilege of seuding four-pound packages through the mail at the present parcels rate There is a wonderful amount of Incon Ost ncy among people respecting postal matters. o The Springfield It publican call Senator Tillman the Huckleberry Kinn of the Senate. It is the best chnracter tuition of the man we have se-n. His untutored frankness, his picturesque verbiage and his utter di-Tegard for convention exnhin the imminent ana amusd attitude which the Senate at large maintains toward him. ' But a sovernment directed by Ben Tillmans would be no more of a success, than a society composed of Huckleberry Finns. Oakland (Gal.), Tribune. PARIS, Jan. 2H.-U was play to her but death to hint. Bad aha only fore , how it would all and the would never have started on such a dangerous game, but it appeared so very comical that her husband's Valet should have fallen desperately in love with tier, and should be vi-ibly languishing under the influence of aiirh ,n consuming pas sion that she could not resipt the temp tatioa of leading hint on, with, as will eventually be perceived, fatal conse quencea to the luckless man, and in ber case deep and lifelong remorse. The young fellow had only been brief time in the service when he was smitten by the charm of the master's wife, who waa about the same age a himself. She was a 'smart Parisienne. and the establishment was conducted on very comfortable line, the husband being in jiossession of quite! a com fortable fortune. It was at flrt only from a respectful distance that the valet took a worshiping the pretty woman. He would not have confided his secret to any one in the world, only with the instinct so characteristic of the lovely ex the object of his adoration soon divined it She Led Him On. The discovery caused her to indulge in many a hearty laugh, but as the days rolled on, with the eoquettishnes which is not infrequently the concmi- tant of beauty, she treated the poor youth to sundry sentimental ' glances from ber bright eyes, coolly and calm ly snubbing him when he made bold to return them. Finding the lady alone in the saloon, he ventured on a declaration, and at last wrung from her a frank declaration that she had been at fault, an J that she had simply been leading him on to this liuux out of sheer mischievous fun. So she did not love him after all the quiet encouragement which she appear ed to have given him. This rudo awakening was too much for the wretched man. He took a re volver out of a pocket, much to the consternation of hi mistress, who sank into a chair trembling in every limb, under the belb f that ber l.t hour had come. A sharp report, and a piercing shriek ended all. Such is the latest story that Paris inns are discussing with interest, every effort being made by the authorities to keep the names out of the papers out of consideration for the husltand and wi'e. who are eminently re-peetahle p -ople.
