Keeping Down His Temper.

NNTHEN M. DE PERSIGNY was a
Wv French Minister of the Interior
he received visit, one day, from friend
who, on sending up his name was shown
into the great mans sanctum. A warm
discussion arose between them. Sudden
ly an usher entered and handed the Min
lister note. On opening it, he at once
changed his tone, and assumed quiet
and urbane manner. Puzzled as to the
contents of the note, and by the marked
effect it had suddenly produced upon the
Minister, his friend cast furtive glance
at it, when, to his astonishment, he per-
ceived that it was simply plain sheet
of paper, without scratch upon it,
More puzzled than ever, the gentle
man, after few minutes, took his
leave, and proceeded to interrogate the
usher.
"You have,' said he, "just handed
to the Minister note, folded up, which
had the most extraordinary effect upon
him. Now it was plain sheet of paper,
with nothing written upon it. What did
it mean 2"
"Sir," replied the usher, "here is the
explanation, which 1 must beg you to
keep secret, for do not wish to COM
promise myself. My MASTER is very
warm, and very liable to lose his tenn
per. AS he himself is aware of his weak
ness, he has ordered me, each time that
his voice is raised sufficiently to be audi
BILE in the ante-room, without delay to
place sheet of paper in an envelope
and take it to him. That reminds him
that his temper is getting the better of
him, and he at once calms HIMSELF

Aneodote of a Newfoundland Dou.

A GENTLEMAN acquainted with the
IA Newfoundland fishery was once
possessed of dog ofsingular fidelity and
sagacity. On one occasion boat and a
crew in his employ were in circumstan-
ces of considerable peril, just outside n
line of breakers, which-owing to some
change in wind or weather-had since
the departure of the boat, rendered the
return passage through them most haz-
ardous. The spectators on shore were
quite unable to render any assistance to
their friends afloat. Much time had
been spent, and the danger seemed to
increase rather than diminish. Our
friend, the dog, looked on for a length
of time, evidently aware of there being
great cause for anxiety in those around.
Presently, however, he took to the
water, and made his way through to the
boat. The crew supposed he wished to
join them, and made various attempts
to induce him to come aboard but no !
he would not go within their reach, but
continued swimming abouta short dis
tance from them. After while, and
several comments on the peculiar con-
duct of the dog, one of the hands sud
denly OWNED his apparent meaning.
"Give him the end of rope, " he said;
that is what he wants" The rope was
thrown-the dog seized the end in an in
slant, turned around, and made for shore
where few minutes afterward boat and
crew-thanks to the intelligence of their
four-footed friend-placed safe and un-
damaged. Was there no reasoning
here2 No acting with view to an
end, or for a given motiveY Or was it
nothing but ordinary instinct

Don't llnger where your "love lies

Breaking The Child's Will.

The grand blunder which almost all
parents and nurse maids commit is that
when the child takes whim against doing
what he is wanted to do-will not eat his
bread and butter, will not come to his les
sons, etc.-they, so to speak, lay hold of
his hind leg, and drag him to his duties !;
whereas person of tact will almost al
ways distract the child's attention from its
own obstinacv, and in moment lead it
gently around to submission.
l know that many persons would think
it wrong not to break down the child's self
will by main force, to come to battle with
him and show him that he is the weaker
vessel but my conviction is that such
struggles only tend to make his self will
more robust. If you can skillfully con.
trive to delay the dispute for a few minutes
and hitch his thoughts off the excitement
of the contest, ten to one he will give iu
quite cheerfully; and this is far better for
him than tears and punishment.

A Wooden Watch.

neer Matt Franklin, wooden watch made
by Victor Dorot, Of Bristol. The case is
made of briar root, and the inside works,
all except three of the wheels and the
springs (Which are Of metal are of box
wood, while the face is made from a piece
of the shoulder blade Of a COW, which was
run over and killed by a train some-
time ago. 1t is an open-taced watch
with glass crystal, and is an elegant piece
Of workmanship, displaying wonderful
talent in the maker. 1t does not weigh
more than an ounce. Matt says he has
carried the watch day or two and it keeps
as good time as any watch he every car.

That makes it 70 pleasant

"Oh, quite. That makes it 70 pleasant
to do business with him."
did you advance the money for this ?"
"He did not ask it. He raised the money
somehow, perhaps from our old advances
and bought them from the broker. The
broker was Of course myself. The beauty
of all this is, that send applicants for
money, who give their notes; he get money
from me and gives his notes to me, and
then advances the money to these appli-
cants,who bring it back to me. It's odd,
isn't it?'
Louis smiled.
"Has he no bona fde debtors in his own
countyW
"Oh yes. plenty Of them but more than
half of his advances have been made to my
men,"
IBID ID you hint any thing about issuing
"Oh yes, and the bait took wonderfully.
He made his bank bank of issue at once,
and sent out hundred and fifty thousand
pounds in notes. I think it was in this
way that he got the money for all that
American stock. At any rate, it helped
him. As he has only a small supply of
gold in his vaults, you may very readily
conjecture his peculiar position"
Louis was silent for time. 4
you have managed admirably, Frank"
said he at last. i
"Oh," rejoined Frank, "Potts is very
small game, financially. There is no skill
needed in playing with him. He is such
a clumsy bungler that he does whatever
one wishes. There is not even excitement.
Whatever l tell him to do he does. Now
if I were anxious to crush the Rothschilds
it would be very different. There would
then be chance for SKILL"
"You have had the chance"
II did not wish to ruin tI.em," said Frank
"Too many innocent people would have
suffered. I only wished to alarm them.
I rather think, from what hear, that they
were little disturbed on that day when
they had to pay four millions. Yet Icould
have crushed them if I had chosen, and l
managed things SO as to let them see this"
"How?"
"I controlled other engagements of theirs,
and on the same day l magnanimously
wrote them letter, saying that would
not press for payment, as their notes were
as good to me as money. Had l pressed
they would have gone down. Nothing
could have saved them. But did not
wish that. The fact is they have locked up
their means very much, and have been
rather careless of late. Thew have learn
ed lesson now."
Louis relapsed into his reflections, and
Frank began to answer his letters.
