Rather Thin,

A ludicrous incident occurred last win
ter at Woodlawn,' on the Blooming
dale road Jones hotel of that place is
ornamented with hostler, whose fun is
as fearless as,his face is ugly. One day
in January, while twenty or thirty fast
gentlemen were standing on the front
balcony of the hotel, an individual rode
up on the thinnest horse mortal eyes
ever looked upon. Leaping from this
phantom steed, the equestrian said, turn
ing to the hostler:
Here, John, give my horse some wa
ter"
Sirl' said John, with a look of as
constituent
Give my horse some waterf" thun-
dered the stranger.
Your horse calculated John, still
more surprised
" Yes, you fool, my horse and the
stranger looked savagely at him, and
commenced drawing the LASH of his
whip through his hand.
John walked towards him, as though
he would demand an explanation, and
had taken about six steps, when he sud-
denly stopped like one surprised beyond
expression.
Bless my>soul, SAYS he, "I ask
your pardon, sir; hut your animal was
tandin' on a line with that ere bitebino
post, and 1 didn't see him.
The owner of the spectral beast tried
to trown, but roar from the balcony
made him change mind.

There have been heavy rains on the
upper Missouri, Mississippi and Illinois
rivers, and good rise is expected in
those streams.
= There was, on Saturday morning,
cheering prospect of rain, but the wind
sprang up and blew gale nearly all
day, drying out the clouds if they ever
contained any rain, and up to evening
not drop fell. About dark fine rain
commenced, and continued up to late
hour.

CHEERFUL HOUsES.-What sort of 9
house do you live in? We do not ask
whether it is costly or cheap, wide or
narrow, of three stories or one. Wheth-
er it is in the city or country we care
not 1t may command a fair prospect,
it may be shut in by sand-banks, or BY
higher buildings. These things are in
-cidental. But We ask, is your house
cheerful? Outsides have very little to
do with the question; it is matter of in
side care and taste Other people see
the exterior of our houses; qoe live in
side. They pass along, and look but
moment, we stay in our rooms long
hours, days and months.
Now, we assert that the pleAsantness
of house depends almost wholly on the
way in which it is kept" The grand
est mansion can be made gloomy and
repulsive, contributing to "splendid
misery. Some of the toughest, cheap
est houses, are cheerful to live in. There
is an air of comfort about all the rooms,
a home likeness which gladdens the
heart. What makes the difference?
We ask, chiefly by way of suggestion,
bat we may be allowed to offer two or
three hints to those who can use them.
Let there be plenty of sunlight in
your house. Don't be afraid of it. God
floods the world with light, and it costs
you an effort to keep it out You want
it as much as plants, which grow sickly
without it. 1t is necessary to the health,
spirits, good nature and happy influence.
Let the sunlight stream freely in. Sid
ney Smith used to say in his CHEEKY
tones, "glorify the room" and. the shut
tiers were opened wide to the god of day.
Flowers and vines are good in their place,
but never allow them to keep out the
sun
