SEVEN FOoLs-1 The envious man-who
sends away his mutton because the person next
to him is eating venison.
2 The jealous man-who spreads his bed
with singing nettles, and then sleeps in it.
g. The proud man-who gets wet through
sooner than ride in the carriage of an infe-
riOr
4. The litigious man-who goes to law in the
hope of running his opponent, and gets ruined
himself
5. The extravagant man-who buys a her
ring, and takes cab to carry it home.
6. The angry man-who learns the ophicleide,
because he is annoyed by the playing of his
neighbor's piano.
7. The ostentatous man, who iumiueS the
outside of his house most brilliantly, and sits in
the inside in the dark.

KIssING.-The Rev. Sidney Smith once said
in writing of kissing: 1--WE are in favor a q
certain amount of shyness when kiss is pro-
posed, but it should not be continued too long;
and when the fair one gives it, let it be admin
istered with warmth and energy Let there be
some soul in it, If she close her eyes and sigh
deeply after it, the effect is greater. She
should be careful not to slobber kiss, but give
it as a humming bird runs his bill into honey
suckle-deep, but delicate There is much
virtue in kiss, when well delivered. We have
had the memory of one we received in our
youth which lasted us forty years, and we be-
lieve it will be one of the last things we will
think of when we die"

Sentonius, portions of seven thousand most
choice birds in one dish and of two thousand
equally choice fishes in another There stood

size, Minerals bnckler and of what compos-

of pheasants and peacocks, the tongues of par

one of them remarked that certain clergyman
who had been the shepherd of the flock had be-
