THE head of celebrated merchantile
house in Vienna has recently erected
mausolem which no one, even of his most
intimate friends, is allowed TO enter. The
walls are covered with black velvet, upon
which appear the family arms of the pro-
prietor Upon platform slightly elevated
stands an open coffin, candles of black wax
al its four corners. At The foot of the coffin
is a plate of silver, on which are the
name and date of the birth of the future
occupant of the narrow abode, and space
has been left for the date of his death, and
this he evidently expected within the COM
ing ten years-for he had completed the re-
cord as far as 1s6-. Daily he is accom-
panied by his friends to the door OF this
tomb; there he leaves Them, enters alone
into the edfice, lies down in his coffin, and
causes a concealed organ TO play lugubrioas
music. Then he goes forth to the world
again, dimes heartily, and converses with a
gayety OF manner astonishing 10 all.

The PRoMPT CLERK-I once knew a
young man, said an eminent preacher, who
was commencing life as clerk. One day
his employer said to him: ''Now, to-
morrow that cargo OF cotton must be got
out and weighed, and we must have cor
rect account Of it."
He was young man OF energy. This
was the first time he had been entrusted TO
superintend the execution OF this work
He made his arrangements over night
spoke 10 the men about their carts ard
horses, and resolving to begin very early in
the morning. instructed all the laborers TO
be there at half. past O'Clock. SO they set
to work and the thing was done about ten
or eleven O'Clock in the day, his employer
came in, and seeing him seated in the
counting house. looked very blank, sup
posing that his commands had not been
executed.
'T thought" said he, ''you were re.
quested to take out that cargo of cotton, this
morning"
"l is all done" replied the young clerk,
"and here is the account"
He never looked behind him from that
moment-never His character was fixed,
confidence was established. He was found
10 be the man to do the thing with prompt
ness He very soon became TO be one that
could not be spared-he was as necessary
20 the firm as any one of the partners. He
went through a life of great benevolence,
and at his death was able to able to leave
his children an ample fortune.
