An Irish Bull" in FRANCE.

A gay young count, who was as
sociated in business with his father,
and occupied the same office, recent
ly had occasion to send his serv-
ant Joseph on an errand to his mis-
tress.
"But remember" added the count
that you must be discreet in the pres.
ence of my father If he is present
when you bring me her answer +,
you must say he instead of "she."
Joseph promised to remember,
and when he returned at the end of
half an hour the old count was in the
room.
"Well, what did he say. Joseph ?"
asked the young count.
'.He said that he would expect
Monster at dinner to morrow" was
the answer.
'What was he doing when you
were there ?"
He was just putting on his bon.
net and shawl to go out replied the
discreet Joseph.
The father frowned, the son went
out very suddenly, and Joseph pre-
ceded him rather precipitately.

In STATU QUo.-A friend in
W ,oster, Ohio, sends the following
am rsing instance of the simplicity
of the African lad, as evinced in his
first efforts to attain a knowledge
oil the English Vocabulary. The
boy, some seven or eight years old.
Dan by name, was set TO learn
words in an old spelling book that
had been tossed about the house.
He soon tecame interested in
watching a race between a small
boy and Time, as represented by an
engraving in the book. and every
spare moment of the day that he
could find was devoted to the con-
temptation of the Ito him) exciting
chase. Night finally compelled the
young African to lay aside the book
which his race at the present day
manifest so much pleasure in study
ing, and to retreat to his pallet.
where, no doubt, he dreamed Of
dat big fellow wild de mowin'
scyve," as he called hin, in pursuit
of the poor frightened boy. Dan
was up with rhe lark next morning,
and the first thing he did was to get
the Speller and look for his heroes
of the race. He gazed intently for
an instant at the picture, and then,
with wild scream of delight, ex
claimed, as he danced all about the
old kitchen, "He amt cotched i'm

How MAN FEELS WHEN SINK
ING FOR THE LAST TIME.-Patrick
OBrien, narrowly escaped death
by drowning yesterday. O'Brien
was taken out in an unconscious
state, and remained in that condi-
tion for nearly an hour He de.
scribes the sensations experienced
under water as very peculiar accom-
panied with but little rain. He saws
that there was a roaring, rushing
sound in his ears, that small.bright
spots danced before his eyes, and
thai his mind was almost supernat-
urally active. All the acts and
deeds of his past life rushed before
him in a moment. When going
doing for the last time, he SAYS that
he seemed to be cutting loose from
the bright world above him, and hc
wondered if this wss really death.
Looking mp. he could see the bright
sun. He wondered if he should
never gaze upon it again; should
never hear the birds sing, and won
dered still more intensely whether
he would be missed by his compan-
ions, and if SO. how long before
they would find his body. Then
succeeded a short period of uncon-
sciousness. and he seemed to be
falling, falling down some giddy
height with no power or will to
stop, and this is all he remembers.
The period of forgetfulness was
precisely similar to that produced
by heavy sleep.-[Dabu Times,

Boy SMOKERS H ere and there
about the street corners and around
the doors ofamusement you will see
Il lot of urchins some of them
decently clad and presenting a
respectable appearance, who are en-
gagged in asserting their manhood by
pulling away at exeerahle cigars.
It is fair to presume that their anx-
ious mammas are not aware of the
foul habits their darling boys pick up
and practice outside of the parental
roof; but for their benefit they
should know that it is stated that a
French physician has investigated
the effect ofsmoking on thirty eight
boys between the ages of nine and
fifteen who were addicted to the
habit. Twenty seven presented dis
tinct symptoms of nicotain poison.
In twenty-five there were serious
disorders ofthe circulation. indiges-
ton, dullness of intellect, and
marked appetite for strong drinks.
In three there was heart affection;
in eight decided deterioration of the
blood in twelve there was frequent
epitoxis; ten had disturbed sleep;
and four had liberation of the
mucus membrane of the mouth. 1t is
easy, then, to see how the ranks of
drunkards and dissolute men "a5out
town" are reclusted, when there are
so many boys in training for
delirum tremens and all the training
for dissipation Louisville Jour

A HUSBAND SHOOTS HIMSELF IN
HIS Wires PREsENCR.-Our com
manity was startled by the report
that Milton Williams. a well-kno vn
citizen of this county, had commit
ted suicide by shooting himself
through the left breast. On Friday
last Mr.. w. separated from his wife,
equal division of the household eff
fects being having been made, the
wife retaining possession of the
only child, an infant few months
old. The separation seems to have
been desired by both parties, as
they could not live harmOniously
together. The best of feeling seemed
to prevail between them at the time
of the separation. After the wife
had taken her departure to the
house of her brother in-law, North
Goodson, he seemedsoo regret the
step that had been taken, and ap-
peared Respondent and low spirited
This, however was not noticed par
ticularly by his friends. On the
Sunday morning following Williams
went the residence of Mr.. Goodson,
where his wife had taken up her
quarters, and inquired where she
was. He was informed that she
had not arisen, and was shown the
room where she was asleep. He
went to the room, and approaching
the bedside of the wife, asked to
kiss the child. 1t was handed to
him by the mother, who asked Mr..
Williams for money to buy the
child some clothing. Handing back
the child to the mother, he remarked;
"Myra, / come to tell you" and
before completing the sentence he
drew a Colts repeater from his
pocket, and placing it to his left
breast, fired, and fell to the floor
with the blood gushing from the
wound. The wound will undoubt- |
edly prove fatal, though the mur-
dered man exceedingly regrets his
rash act. and is very anxious to re- !

rooling in the grass, etc. The
unfortunate father, meantime, es

HARD WATER FOR DRINKING Pun


HARD WATER FOR DRINKING PUR-
PosEs.-Dr. Letheby, in an article on
the water supply of London, states
that water Of moderate hardness,
like that used in London, Paris, vi
emma, and some other European
cities, is always to be preferred to
that which is entirely soft, as being
best suited for domestic purposes,
on account of being brighter to the
eye and more agreeable to the taste
He also makes the singular an
nouncement that the French author
tiles are so well satisfied of the su-
periority of hard water that they
pass by that of the sandy plains,
near Paris, and go far away to the
chalk hills of Champagne, where
they find water even harder than
that of London; giving as a reason
for the preference that more of the
conscripts from the sott-water dis
tricts are rejected, on account of
the want of strength of muscle,
than from the hard-water districts,
from which they conclude that the
calcareous matter is favorable to
the formation of the tissues.
DR.. Letheby further states that
the mortality in England is greater,
on an average, in places where soft
water is used, other circumstances
being equal. than where the water
is hard; and it is suggested that the
sparkling hard waters of the lime
stone districts are relished, not only
because they are pleasant to the
eye, but on account of some hygi
enic properties in the excess of car
bonic acid they contain, and possi-
bly, because the percentage of lime
acts incidentally upon the system.
The Doctor concludes by express
ing his preference for the very
slightly hard water of London over
a softer quality, although reprehend-
ing the use of water containing an
excess of mineral matters Edi
