PRorAGATING CuERANTs.-This is

The best way is to make a square,

Did Amy Of Them Get Away.

A good story is told Of WE'LL
known New York politician and
railroad manager.
During his absence from home his
wife gave birth to twins. He was
telegraphed of her confinement, no
particulars being given, and imme-
diately hastcned home.
Knowing when he might be ex-
pected, the nurse borrowed q third
baby Of about the same age, and
placed It in the crib with the twins.
Immediately on reaching home, our
friend fastened to his wife's cham
Der, and after his congratulations
TO her, asked to ba shown the baby.
The nurse, who had frequently scrv-
ed at similar occasions in his fam,-
ly, raised the covering and exhlbi-
ted to him the three babies. Open
ing his eyes with surprise and thor
oughly taken aback by the view, he
turned to his wife and exclaimed
" Good lord, mother /! did any
Of them get away?'

Some Truths Well Told.

Let q man fail in business, what
q wonderful effect it has upon his
former friends and creditors. Men
who had taken him by the arm,
laughed asd chatted With him by the
hour, shrug up their shoulders and
pass BY him with schilling chow do
you do ? Every triae of bill is
hunted up and presented, that would
not have seen daylight for months
to come, but for tho misfortune of
the debtor. LIT is paid. we'll and
good if not, the scowl of the
Sheriff perhaps meets him at the
corner. A man that neve. failed
knows but little of human nature
In prosperity be sails along, gently
waited by favoring smiles and kind
words from everybody. H prides
himself upon his good name aud
spotless character, and makes his
boast that he has not an enemy in
the world. Alas! the change. He
looks upon tho world in q different
light when revcrses come upon him.
He reads suspicion upon every
brow. He hardly knows how to
move, or whether to do this thing
or the other-for there are spies
about him, and writ is ready for
his back. To understand what kind
Of stuff the world is made of, q per-
son mnst be unfortunate and, stop
payment once in his lifetime. If be
has kind friends, then they are
made manifest. A failure is 4 NOR
al seive-it brings out the wheat
and shows the chat. A man thus
learns that words and pretended
good will do not constitute real
friendship. ~.--:..E.-EE
