An EssnARRAssrNa SrruAr1or

An EMBARRASSING SITuAr1oN.-Max
Adeler saya: That little affair OF Need
hams, that some of the papers have been
telling about, was certainly unpleasant
at least to Needham. Needham owned
deep-mouthed watch dog which always
hayed him welcome home, and snatohed
mouthfuls OF chops out OF the legs Of
strangers. Needham took that faithful
animal elong with him one day to guard
his clothes while he went in swimming.
Needham bathed for an hour, and mean.
while the dog went TO sleep on Need
hams garments. When NeedhRm came
eut the dog did not recognize him in his
nud5 condition. and refused to let him
come near his garments. Every time
that Needham would grab for a suapen-
der or sock the dog would bite mouth.
t9l out OF his nrm or leg, and whenever
Needham wo1ld make dive for boot
or undershirt that animal would seize
him by the calf and shake him. So
Needham stood there in the sun pretty
nearly roasted, and he spent the after
noon dodging in and out of the water to
avoid the Dorcas societies and female
students at the boarding school, and the
factory girls coming down the road. At
lsst, when the dog went to sieep, Heed
ham erept mp behind MIN, caught him
suddenly by the tail and flung him across
the stream, Before the dog could swim
back, Needham got most Of his clothes
upon his bleeding body and limbs, and
the dog came siding up to him, looking
a. II he expected to be rewarded for bis
extraordinary vigilance. And yet they
say that the dog is mans best friend.

Tied to branch that seems meant just for

ZeAlously chAaes the robins Away,
Barks at the squirrels, or snaps 1T the flies,
All the while Fannie 10 making mud pies.
Sunshine and soft summer bree2es sstir,
While She Is busy, are busy with hers
Checks rosy. glowing, and bright sparkling
Bring they to Fanny, while making mud pies.
Dollies and playthings are al laid away,
Not to como out till the next rainy day;
Under the blue Of these sweet summer skies,
NothiDg's 90 pleasant ss making mud pies.
Gravely she stIrs, with serious look,
'sMaking believe" she's true pastry cook;
Sundry brown eplashes on forehead aud eyes
Show that our Fanny is making mud pies.
But al the soil OF her innocent play.
Clean sosp and water will soon wash away:
Many pleasure in dsintier gnise,
Leaves darker traces thsn Fapny's mud pies.

The Virginia City {Nev.) Moniun;it.,.
has found q natural son Of Napoleon I
at Alder Guich, to which place he came
in 1864. He is poor bnt very naughty
and nisanthropio, and it was only with
the confidence inspired by having in his
possession few dainties and flask of
liquor that the reporter dared to ap.
proaoh the reoluse in his 'shanty, and
ask for his story. Unlike the famous
Needy Knife-grinder," the sago had =
1tory to tell; he acknowledged that he
mad hated ''hnman hyenas" so early in
ife's bright morn as the hour when iast
he set on his mothers knee. This mo-
thar was the daughter of man living
near E.SSi;ag ct The time when Marshal
lannes and the Emperor fought the
brilliant battle of Aspern, and it Was to
his house the mortally wounded marshal
was brought on litter. Napoleon came
afterwards, saw the girl, became ena-
mored OF hers and was soon the father
OF this recluse, who, hating everybody
therefor, and despising himself, came at
last to die at Alder Guloh, the victim Of
circumstances and broken heart.
