themselves like the little girls did not
forbid them to make playthings for

so it happened that the long winter

the girls to start them in housekeeping.
Nowadays all manner of paper furni

dolls with dresses like queens can be
had at the same shops fora fe.w cents;
still there is good reason to believe
that the workmen who design these ar

There is more joy in making things

good reason is that no child can make

New Generation Objects to Thorough
and Continuous Work,
The distaste which the new genera
tion of blacks feel for thorough and
continuous work is most conspicuously
shown in their objection to following
trades, says tlie Contemporary Review.
Owing to tlie distance caused by tlie
size of tlie estates iu the age of slavery,
which made it Inconvenient to send for
white mechanics, who generally lived
in the villages. It was the custom to
train negroes to most of the common
handicrafts. There were blacksmiths, 1
carpenters,
wheelwrights,
masons,
bricklayers, shoemakers and saddlers
on all of the most extensive plantations,
and many of these men were very skil!-
ful in their trades. They had from
boyhood served an apprenticeship with
older slaves, and for years hail been
called on to do a great quantity of work, i
A craft was often passed down from
father to son. nnd had thus, on the same
estate, been In tlie bauds of tlie mem
bers of tlie same family for a century or
more. Oue may travel now many bun
dreds of miles through tlie rural dis
tricts of tlie South and not come upon
a siigle black mechanic. And this
seems all tlie more remarkable wheu it
is recalled that in tlie numerous col
leges for tlie blacks established In all
parts of the Southern States manual
tasks have been used as an Important
branch of the system of Instruction.
Tlie graduates of these industrial
schools either give up their trades nlto-
getlier or they do not return to tliefr
native rural communities as tlie most
promising field for such pursuits. In
most eases the trades are abandoned,
because to follow them would make
necessary a confining and exacting life
in one place. Willie men have practl-'
cally usurped all tlie handicrafts in the
rural districts, while tlie negroes still
continue to look to the tasks of tlie
field for subsistence. These tasks they
can drop in one locality without risking
their chance of securing work In anoth
er, as would be the case If they were
mechanics. Such tasks they can also
perform with ns many intervals of In
dolence as they like.
The Buffalo branch of the Pennsyl
vania Railroad, which will run through
Bradford from Wilcox, I’a., across the
ridges, by way of Lafayette. McKean
county, will cross a deep and moun
tainous george in the latter vicinity
with a steel viaduct nearly 500 -feet
high. The bridge, says the Philadel
phia Ledger, will be over 8,000 feet iu
length, and its construction will be
sue of the greatest engineering feats on
record. It will be the highest bridge
in the world.

Hhattereil Illusions.
This age of personalities is the meant
of spoiling ninny illusions, says Ben
con. One listens to a musician anil
finds the music heavenly, ami then lie
remembers bits of gossip and talk that
are very unpleasant, and It does de
tract a little from one’s enjoyment, for
the personal does come Into one's re
lations of all kinds. The same thing is
true of prominent persons In other
walks of life. Ideals rarely bear con
tact with realities without becoming
somewhat damaged, and the tendency
to idealize musicians, authors, painters
and such folk Is very strong, for they
uppeal most strongly to those persons
who have Imagination nnd ideality
above a low level. It Is a mistake to
tell the public about tlie personality
and life of Its idols unless they are
more than human In their characteris
tics. The fact tliat the public Is curi
ous does not alter the case. The love
of talking about people is almost as
universal as tlie instinct of self-preser
vation.
