Gail hamilton on Clerks.

From Harper's Bazar.l
A plainly but perfectly dressed lady,
with the best blood OF the world in her
veins, and-what is more imposing to
the haberdashing heart-with plenty OF
money in her pocket, went not long
since into q shop to bur napkins. The
potentate of the counter showed her
such napery as he thought suited to her
social por;tion. "These are rather
coarse" she suggested, have you none
fner?" "0h, yes, said the gentleman,
"but they are more expensive. 1t IS
ever to be regretted that the lady turned
in silence and left the shop, because that
clerk will never know that it was his
own idiotic effrontery, and not the ex-
pense OF the napkins, which lost him the
customer.
A lady, who never made any great
figure in the world, and certainly not in
waterproof cloak on rainy day, was
seeking a parasol. The clerk showed
her some very common, not to say shabby
specimens, which she declined. A little
further down the counter she bought a
whole piece of fine and costly linen, OBJ
serving which, the knight of the parasol
came down and begged her to re exam
inc his assortment, of which he had con-
triyed to unearth an altogether different
and better collection. She, too, fell be-
low the requirements Of the occasion,
and bought her parasol without enlight-
ening him upon her discovery of his
stupid mistake.
A lady, large and lovely, a serene
Quaker goddess, made some benevolent
casual remark to the clerk with whom
she was trafficking, just as she would
have patted the head of a strange dog
who might have run up and shifted at
her gown, and the little whipper snap.
per clerk followed her to the door and
winked at her And while she stood
staring at him in her first amazed con-
seriousness of his individual existence,
he winked again. Thus yacuous do the
gods make human skull, yet furnish it
With all the ganglia of life.
Happy are those merchants who can
secure the right sort OF clerks--for a
right sort there is. / bought table
cloth of him yesterday. | had forgotten
to take the size of the table, or pattern
Of the color to be matched. Patiently
he evolved my probable needs from my
fragmentary facts, discussed pleasantly
the presumptive evidence, and seemed
as much interested in the harmonies of
my dining room as il he had expected TO
eat there thrice a day during the re-
mainder of his natural life. Did he
deceive me2 Not a Bit / know
of a surety that my dining-room was
no more to him than the pesnutstand
on the common opposite. Me and it he
has already forgotten. None the less
was his monetary and friendly, but not
familiar, interest in me and mine alto
gether winning and sincere His sym
pathetic and refined nature does unques-
tionably and spontaneously ally itself
for succor and good cheer to all who
appeal to him. May his kind heart, his
welcoming face and his engaging man
ners be mire OF wealth to himself and
all his employers and dependents.

Katr.ndorn riehborne.

The Lord of Katzendorf lived very
irregular sort of life on his immense
estates about sixty miles from Brunn,
Austria. He died in 1869, without legit-
innate children, but he left an heir, new
ertheless, and left him all his property.
He had a son whom be acknowledged,
born to him in l84l, and afterward had
the boys mother-his servant girl-put
in the state prison, where she died. In
1862 he drove his son away from home,
and nothing was heard Of him afterward
except that be had gone to the United
States and enlisted in the Union army.
A short time before the Lord OF KatzeH-
dorff died he judicially made legitimate
this son, and the titles aud estates de-
scsnded to the unknown wanderer, prob
ABLY a private in the late war.
