humbly asked the lady Of the house fol
norsel OF food, his venerable appear
aucc and evident want aroused all hel
womanly generosity, md she presently
set the poor trump down to the remains
of the family dinner.
"Poor old man," she murmured,
sympathetically, us she saw him lean
back in his chair, leaving his food I'M
touched on his plate; she is too weary
to eat" and she asked him if he felt i'll.

in MI humble voice, "but mos people
cooks their roast beef till it's overdone,
and overdone beef don't gen'ally agree

"Y' haven't got any Wooster sauce,
have yer" continued the mendicant
IL mos gen'ally use it when beef amt

Unfortunately, the house Of McCor,

Mrs. c. brought the mustard and a plate
Of nice pickles, observing with the faint.

she'd known that lie was coming she'd

said the old man, as he helped himself to
another spoonful of gravy and cucum-

IRENE, rs he looked humbly around the
table, MS though his former glance
might have overlooked the luxuries Of
which he spoke.
But Mrs. McC. was rather too far
gone with spcechless indignation to
frame suitable answer, and so the
weary old man, with n mournful sigh,
went on eating, and developed most
singular and wonderful appetite, which
wasgradually appeased MS the four.pound
piece Of beef was reduced TO n mere
sliapeless fragment, and the last boiled
potato had vanished from the dish.

A Galley Slave.

An old man died near Paris the other
day who was known us the "honest gal
Icy slave" When he was twenty years
of age he fell in love with young girl,
md US her father refused his consent to
their marriage, they eloped. The lovers
wcro pursued and arrested on the com.
plant Of the inhexible father. The
young man was tried for having ab-
Quoted his beloved, she being not yet Of
age, and was condemned to ten years i'll
the galleys. The daughter was con-
signed to n semi.conventual institution.
Ten years passed, md on his discharge
our hero found the cause OF his disgrace
still faithful to him. They were mar
riel and came to America. After some
TING they returned to Francc and set.
tied down in their native land. He
made such a worthy use Of the fortune
10 had hononbly won in this country
TINT he was always called the friend Of
tho unfortunate. Three thousand per-
sons followed his remains to the grave.

A Dangerous Game.

It has been stated in the papers that n
retired gambler played game of "Bos,
ton" losing Sl36,O6 to two other sport
ing men. "Boston is m old game,
where NIL the cards were dealt md n
trump turned from another pack, four
persons playing. Then the players, be.
ginning ut the dealers left, bid by offers
to take 80 many tricks, the person with
trump color i'll excess having priority.
If tho trump mixer loses, he must pay
money according to his offer to each Of
the others in such high ratio TINT the
game is desperate. Immense SUNS Of
money are lost and won in this game,
and it is &id to DO more demonlizing
than faro poker or keno.

" Captain Jack.N

He is smart boy who knows his
duty and he is both smart and good
boy who, knowing his duty, does it.
"Capt. jack " is entitled to have both Of
these adjectives placed before his name.
He is the horse used by the Protector
Hose No. Z, of Worcester. This is what
folks say Of him: He Inns been edu-
Gated, and does his share of the work
when MI alarm is given, almost to per-
lection. As soon MS the first blow on
the gong is struck, he backs out Of his
stall and takes his place in the shafts Of
the carriage under the harness, which Is
suspended from the ceiling. A pull
upon the rope lets the harness down, and
n pull upon second ropo opens tho
doors OF the house, and the carriage
starts. The boys claim TINT they can get
ready to leave the house in seven
seconds.

lived during his twenty years Of exile
IRON France, and where he still resides
part Of the time. A recent visitor de-
scribes some of the old things about the
place. A massive armchair is placed
under an antique shrine, and protected
from occupancy by a chain drawn across
its front. 1t is dedicated to Hueo's
father having been used by him. In
the salon is an ebony standish, in which
are set four famous inkstauds and ae-
eempanying pens used by Lamartine.
