A Novel Breakfast Party.

A novel break fast party was recently
participated in by the Dover Bathing
Club. A floating table, decorated with
flowers, was anchored in the bay, and
upon it were laid cups Of hot coffee,
eggs, bread and butter, etc. About
twenty members ofthe club then sprang
into the water, swan to the table and
drank their coffee, ETC., the conditions
being that no one was to touch the ia
BILE, itself. This necessitated good
knowledge Of the art Of " treadine
water" and there was plenty of fun for
quite half an hour, when the repast was
finished.

Soon after reakiast, Mrs. Jones called
upon Squire Bent, the owner Of the new
block, and minated her desire to be
shown the corner house. The request
he readily complied with. Mrs. Jones
was perfectly delighted with all the ar
engagements and expressed her satisfac
ton.
"Are these houses for sale, Or rent p
she inquired.
Either" said the owner.
"The rent of this one is, understand,
$25 more than the rest"
"What do you ask for the house TO a
cash purchaser? 2" asked Mrs. Jones with
subdued eagerness.
"Four thousand dollars cash, ,SAs the
reply, "and that is but a small advance
o. the COST"
|. "very we'll, ! will buy it of you,"
ded Mrs. Jones quietly.
'What did understand you to say ?"
asked the Squire, hardly believing his
ears.

your price, and pay the money within a
week." t e-lrt.0
"Then the house 10 yours, but your
husband said nothing Of his intentions,
and, in fact, did not know" aaf
"That he had the money to invest,
suppose you would say. Neither does
he know it, and must ask you not to
tell him for the present"
The next morning Mrs. Jones invited
her husband to take walk, but without
specifying the direction.
They stood in front of the house in
which ne desired to live. sf'
"Wouldn't you like to go in ?' she
asked. .s f
eyes. It's pity we haven't got the
key"
forthwith walked up to the steps and
proceeded to open the door.
"When did you get the key Of the
Squire 2" asked her husband.
Yesterday, when l bought the
house," said his wife quietly. q ~
Mr.. Jones gazed on his wife in pro.
found astonishment.
"What on earth do you mean, Eliza
beth ?" he inquired.
"Just as l say. The house is mine
and what is mine is thine. So the house
is yours, Ezra"
"Where in the name of GOODNESS did
you raise the money :" asked the hus.
band, his Amusement as great as ever.
~ havn't been managing wife these
ten years for nothing" said Mrs. Jones,
smiling.
With some difficulty Mrs. Jones per.
suaded her husband the price of the
house was really the result o: her saw.
ngs. He felt, when he surveyed the
arrangements Of the new
house, that he had reason to be graf eful
or the prudence of his managing wife.

Let me make proposition to you,"

me that sum for the purpose 2"

Mr.. Jones had but little prudence or
foresight. He lived chiefly for the pres

contingencies might arise in the future, |
he would, somehow or other, be pro-
yided for.

proper feeling, but there is good deal |
OF truth in the old adage that 'God will |
help those who help themselves"
Nrs. Jones, on the contrary, had been
brought up in family which was com.
PEELED to be economical; and although
che was not disposed to deny herself
comforts, yetshe felt that it was desirable
to procure them at fair price. The time
nj which this conversation took place
was at the commencement of the second
year of their married life.
The first step which Mrs. Jones took
on accepting the charge of the house.

tice OF paying cash for all articles that
