A New -York paper apeaks of a gentleman who was quartered at from the worst intentions in the from an accident which might almost be termed a catastrophe One cannot help thinking how very clever Laura Keene proved herself and how generous she was to make the success of an actor who was doing his best to make the play on which she depended a Open Fires asd Mantel-Pieces Says tlie wise man: A pleasant thing it is for the eyes to look upon the And the next pleasant thing is to look at an open wood fire with ample hearth brass andirons fender shovel and tongs to match a bellows hearth-brush and the whole snrmounted by a handsome mantel-picce We ought to make more of sunshine in onr houses all the year round and having trapped every sun beam at least in the winter months con aider next the fire-place with its radiant heat and social glow as the best adjunct to our domestic cheer In the first place for its history and its poetry Registers and radiators have no such quality Our ancestors whether of the Bfe England Or the Old never fought for any such cast-iron inventions but for their hearth stones and their firesides What painter or poet could ever work up any fine in elaborating the conception of an air-tight stove or Webster furnace or even a Morning Think of an old interior whether of cottage or farm-house or mansion without backlog crane or mantel no ruddy glow nor quivering lights nor dancing shadows! Sentiment is quenched good cheer grows dull and the poetry of hospitality is gone What a royal element is fire emblem of life power aspiration terrible the worst master the best servant I What a part it plays in legends of the fire-worshipers in illustrations of sacred truths in the useful arts I What a place for air -castles and reveries in the bed of glowing coals and leaping tongues of flame I And then the not a meager narrow shelf nor scrimping bracket but a mantel-picce indeed with depth and breadth and room for shells and hyacinths and bronzes and photographs of good friends and stuffed birds and bits of porcelain or whatever oddities and curiosities ot the mantel-piece kind that have pic ap ant associations belonging to them and that your purse or fancy can afford the trouble We afford it nard times and household economy Let us think that over twice There are luxuries and there ore reasonable luxuries Candies prize-candies cigars fine-cat and suchlike we will say nothing about them except that the list is long and they absorb a great deal of money But health and domestic cheer are reasonable luxuries Good ventilation and well-oxygenated air are their prime conditions Nothing will secure these conditions like an open fire-place It is beyond all comparison the best ventilator It warms the lower part of the room creating a current where impurities are most likely to accumulate and whisking them up the chimney It sucks In the purer air from every outside crevice and creates an invigorating flow and change Better still sends out radiant heat which is quite a different thing from heated air from cast-iron or sheet-iron surfaces It has a penetrating and stimulating influence peculiar to itself and oxygenates he blood in a way altogether more healthy to the brain and nervous system generally than the heated air of furnaces or stoves Registers and radiators are well especially when supplying a large volume of moderately-heated air drawn torn without rather than a small volume of over-heated air ut' they are not well enough till tho fire-place or open grate supplements them with its radiant heat Even a little fire on the iearth will suffice for its various benefits of health and comfort and if the argument of economy be very cogent tho occasional luxury when the day is dark and dreary or when tlie wind is wrong and the furnace sullen or when the friend arrives and your hospitality craves its best expression it is to say the east a reasonable luxury Why the very look of an open fire-place with the wood laid and the kindlings under all ready for the match is suggestive of an open heart a kindly welcome and a cheery home For the sick-room there is no question about It It is a hygienic necessity And what is a necessity for the sick-room should set the well man a-thiokiog If rou have much brain work to do your lead hot and feet cold your nerves tired and a sense of goneness dissatisfaction and futility mingling with your best work reflect on the above Economy is sometimes double-edged It may be that rou cannot afford not to have an open ire And by all means if you contemplate building a house provide for it as one

custody of a child The law gave the ownership to one' party 'and equity' and human rights and motherhood pleaded for another Nine years ago Mr and Mrs Nicholas Smith lost their two children and the grief of the mother was so great that Mr Smith advertised for an infant for adoption thinking that a little one in the house would occupy the time and might win the affections and save the lifeo: his sorrowing wife About the same time a Mrs Ladd of San Francisco advertised an infant a year old for adoption The parties met and a bargain was struck The mother who was distressingly poor at the time entered into a written contract with the Smiths to wholly surrender her child to their keeping and care and ownership Thus she gave and signed away her flesh'and blood for its own good and became vol untarily childless In time Mrs Ladd's condition changed She became Mrs- Goldin and well-to-do even wealthy As years went on she began to have ceaseless yearnings for her child and made overtures to the Smiths to get her offspring back In the meantime the Smiths' condition changed They were quite poor but loved the growing little girl and provided for her as well as they were able They rejected Mrs offers of money and lands in exchange for the canceling of the contract and the return of the girl to her mother's care and keeping Mrs Goldin then offered to make the Smiths a present of a house adjoining her dwelling on condition that they would live in it and bring her daughter next door to her heart and home This offer the Smiths declined probably be cause they were jealous of the mother's influence and would not risk losing tho affections of their adopted daughter They knew the power of a love They were immovable No offers of worldly gain could tempt them into the dangers of such a loss This proves how strong their love was too The mother had been long contributing to her maintenance and could restrain her yearning heart no longer The girl was now ten years old Tho case was taken to Court The girl herself was bright and understood the situation While her affection was strong for her foster-parents she had learned to love her mother and to sympathize with her She behaved herself becomingly Tho Judge passed upon the validity of the contract anl said that outside of all other considerations the interest of the child imperatively demanded that he should award the custody of her to her mother and it was so ordered by the court Hie mother wept tears of joy as she clasped her darling and the poor old couple wept tears of grief at the loss of tlieirs and the little girl wept between them she scarcely knew why Probably she had the strange feeling of being loved too much for her own perfect happiness just then There's not a mother in the land that will not applaud tho decision of tlie court and that's evidence it is about right St Louie Bepttbliean Accidental Success The New York correspondent of the Baltimore Bulletin writes the following concerning So them's first appearance as Lord Dundreary: It is well known that the part of Lord Dundreary was so insignificant when first confided to Mr care-that he despaired of making anything out of it It appears that Solhem deliberately determined to guy the part and hy thus raining the piece secure its speedy withdrawal and his consequent release from so distasteful a role He confided his intention to a friend but the friend was and went and informed Bliss Laura Keene the manager of Sothern's purpose Miss Keene was dreadfully vexed as might be imagined The business had been bad and she looked to Oar American Cousin' as a sort of a big bonanza to help her out of the slough of despond While puzzling over this vexatious matter Miss Keene was waited upon by the foreman of a fire company who arid that they expected avisit from a similar organization of Albany and wanted to know what arrangements could be made for a reduction on a visit to the theater Miss Keene had an inspiration What reduction' she said the seats you wish are at your disposal on two conditions Come all of yon in citizen's dress and appland everything that Mr Solhcra does to the ecboP This proposition was instantly accepted and when the evening of the first representation came the from out of town and in town occupied good places in front with no indication of firo laddie in costume Mr Sothcra appeared and true to his resolution to ruin the piece did something utterly absurd What was his astonishment to find it -received' with roars of laughter and rounds of applause He followed up his first eccentricity with another far more ridiculous and was actually recalled on the scene to receive the rousing acknowledgments from the delighted audience Mr Sothera began to think that there was method in his madness' and as may be imagined he kept up the pranks which afforded such evident satisfaction What a success became it is needless to ssy but it Li queer to reflect that it sprung i- Vs s- S-vw --ir 1 -i Vi 1
