My Adventure at FayaI.

A rather laughable adventure happen

when as / turned corner, / was approach
ed by an old Portuguese woman, wearing a
fashionable hood. Now be it known, that
these hoods are different from anything
else on earth, and generally are made of
blue cloth, attached to cloak of the same !;
and is worn regardless of season This
hood fits, much like circus tent on top
Of pole and is made without any trim
mings and for ugliness, would take the
first premium at any county fair 1t is i'm
possible for woman to make any headway
against the wind with this hood on.
But / am forgetting my old woman. AS
I turned the corner, l suddenly came in
sight of her, waiting a change of wind to
turn the corner. AS soon as she saw me-
she drifted towards me, held out her
hand, which seized, and shook heartily

very acceptable. She drew her hand away,
said few words, which | could not under

madame these attentions are hattering, but
really cannot return your-regard--as /
could wish. She kissed her hand again
and murmured few soft words. | was
now getting desperate, and sharply said l
must 60, madame. i5Il
But she stood her ground and kissed her
hand over and over again, and curtsied re-
peatedly. Here was evidently case OF
love at first sight. then asked myself II It
was possible for me to love foreigner,
particularly one SO ugly,) and i began to
think of retreating, when some friends
from the ship, overlook me. Quickly throw.

George said, "what are you standing here

A Disappointed Dog.

Here is true dog story A family down
town having false crate in one of the
rooms of the house, placed some red paper
behind it to give the effect OF fire. One of
the coldest days this winter the dog came
in from out doors, and seeing the paper in
the crate, deliberately walked up to it, and
laid down before it, curled up in the best
way to receive the glowing heat as it came
from the fire. He remained motionless for
few minutes feeling no warmth he rails
ed his head and looked over his shoulder at
the CRATE still feeling no heat, he arose
and carefully applied his nose to the crate
and smelled it,. 1t was as cold as ice.-
With look of the most supreme disgust
his tail curled down between his legs, every
hair on his body saying elm sold," the
dog trotted out of the room.
