Who I AM.-The following story is
told of Colonel Samuel Colt, who in his
lifetime was sometimes inclined to be a
little pompous. When he was building
dwelling-houses for the worllmen EN-
ploycd IN his great pistol factory, he one
day encountered boy picking up chips
on his grounds. -.
"Whas are you doing here % he asked
gruf1ly.
Picking up chips, sir" rel lied the
youngster, evidently unawed by the
great presence. =,
"Perhaps," exclaimed the colonel
drawing himself up with dignity, "yor
don't know who / am. I'm Colonel Sam
uel Colt, and l live in that big house VI
yondcr."
The boy slaughtered up and swellet
out, and answered, Perhaps You don
know who lam. I'm Patrick Murphy
and I live in that little shanty dowr
yonder," pointing in the direction.
"Sonny," said the colonel, blandly
patting the hoy on the head, ego OF

Of years past, a man and wife-the man

a most extraordinary woman, which the
sequel to the story will SHOW. They
were in good circumstances, though not
rich had the comforts OF liie, but never
saved up much money, apparently. They
lived for many years in this way, until
one day the wife said to the husband,
" Husband, why don't you buy houee
1t is so much nicer than to rent = "Ah,
said the husband, 81 can't afford it. >
"But," taid the wife, wouldn't You

A SMART BoY.-The st. Pcter( ltnn)
Tribune tells the following good story
about n boy OF that town:
johnny Rogers-eyerybody here knows
him--is only five years old, and COM
menced attending school this Winter.
He is os full of mischief Ns he can be, and
few days ago his teacher, having ex-
hausted every power OF moral suasion to
make him behave with proper decorum,
wrote note to the principal, something
like the following:
"Mr. Metcalf-The bearer deserves q
severe punishment"
The teacher gave the note to Johnny,
and told him to carry it to Mr., Metcalt
Johnny evidently smelt mice il seem
ed to him that something was wrong,
and ne concluded he wouldn't go to the
principals room. Meeting a little Nor
wegian boy in the hall, he inveigled hin
into delivering the note, and went off tc
play himself. The principal read the
note, and at once honored the note pre-
scented by "the bearer by giving hin
all it called for. The innocent Norwe
gian lad departed sadder if net q wisel
boy.

TANNING BIRDS. There is a gentle
matron in st. Augustine, Fla, who, if
report be true, as it very likely is not, has
so tanned the birds in the groves and gar
dens of her husbands farm that they
como into the house and hop upon the
shoulders even of guests who are strang-
ers. None of them have been Gagged, but
they have been tanned by the gentle and
fascinating treatment of the lady. II
everybody was so good, how pleasant il
would be, especially for the birds,

In RUSSIA. The following curious in-
cident in the life of the present Emperor
of Russia is related in recently publish
ed biography. One day thelnte Emperor
Nicholas, hearing great noise in the
room in the Winter Palace where his
children were playing, went in to see
what was the matter. He found Con-
stantine holding down his brother Alex
ander by both knees, and pulling with all
his strength at the knot of a cravat which
he had tied around Alexander's throat.
Alexander, who was nearly throttled, was
begging for mercy, and his father came
Just in time to save him. On being asked
the nearing OF this strange scene, Con
stantine explained to his father that they
were re-en0cting a well-known event in
Russian history--the assassination of the
Emperor Paul |. Constantine was put
under arrest for having attempted to
stranglc the Czarewitch, and Alexander
was sent to prison because he cried Tor
mercy.

1t is d question, says Hearth and Home,
perpetually recurring Mt every intelligent
breakfast table, and inevitably asked by
children who are taught to think, " Is
salt indispensable to human life ?" Di'
etically regarded, salt is by no means in
the same category with mustard, pepper,
vinegar and other condiments. These
are not to be found in blood or muscle.
Salt is. Select o small portion Of brain
or tissue, tendon or blood, evaporate it to
dryness, then burn it to ashes, and after
wards. pouring upon it distilled water,
filter the mixture through white blotting
paper, and You have as resldum certain
crystalline matters, prominent among
which is common salt. In fact, common
salt is universal constituent OF animal
bodies, so universal that unless an animal
can acquire it in one way or another that
animal cannot live. Widely diifused al
over the world, salt is taken up too by the
roots of vegetables, and may also be found
in thor ashes. 1t so happens, however,
that while stems and leaves are compare
lively rich in salt, very little,'if any, is
discoverable in seeds. Cereal grains con-
tain none. The practical result of this
is, that whereas people who live exclu'
sivcly on animal food, as the EsquimauS
Indians in the Arctic, and the Fuegian'
in the Antartic circles, can dispense with
salt in the main, it becomes positive
necessity OF life to every people whose
diet consists largely of bread orits equiv
alents. Salt, in one way or another, is
in fact, to all vertebrate, vivaparous
wa-m-blooded animals, not entirely car
nivorous, tue very sin: qua non of exist
ence.
