Mr.. DiOgenes.

This singular man lived in Greece.
He was distinguished for his eccentri-
cities, bad manners, and bad disposition
II was his chief busecss to find fault.
For example, he took lantern ono day
when the sun was shining brightly and
went out to search for All honest man.
thereby insinuating that such persons
were exceedingly scarce. When Alex
ander, distinguished military gentle
man, paid him visit, and inquired what
he could do for him, he had the impu-
dcnce to tell him TO "gct out of his sun
shine" To cap the climax of his oddi-
ties, he dressed like beggar and lived
in tub! He was sour, grabbed.
crusty old bachelor. We infer that he
had no wife, first, because history does
not mention her; second, because no
woman would take kindly to one of his
habits, dress or manners, or aspire to be-
come mistress of his mansion. "Thcrc
was an old woman who lived in a shoe"
1t is true, but the woman who would
live i'll tut, and especially with such n
companion, has not been heard from.
The misanthropic spirit which possessed
this man was doubtless due to disorder
ed digestion and biliousncss, one of
the prominent symptoms of which is a
morse, fault-finding disposition. The
tongue Is heavily coated, giving rise to
a bad taste, the appetite Is not good, and
the patient feels dull, sleepy, or dizzy.

Mr.. Diogcnes lived several centuries be-

which would have relieved him of his
"bile," and enabled him TO find scores
of ''honrst men, without the aid of his
lantern. Under their magic influence,
combined with that of the Golden Med

might have been led to take more

SCARCITY OF MoNEY.-There is no

ssJonah" was the theme Of the Rev.
Mr.. Busser's talk at the Congregational
church Sunday night, and many were
there to hear and learn. Net having
sufficient time that evening for full and
thorough discussion Of the subject, such
as would satisfy the unbeliever in mira
Giles, the same topic will be resumed next
Sunday evening. Meantime there is
much vain speculation among men, es-
pecially among men of the world, as they
are called, men who snap their fingers at
miracles and are pleased to call them
"fish stOries,' etc. One of these doubt
ing ones has just left us, after an hours
interview, and our readers, including the
talented young pastor in question, will
pardon us for briefly abiding to what
passed between us relative to this much
mooted question.
.He talked we'll, but this Jonah bust
ness was played out long ago." remarked
our visitor ''rhe idea Of making out
Jonah to be the one God selected to save
Nineveh and then have him turn out a
sneak and coward, just as if God couldn't
tell beforehand whether he would fill
the bill or not"
"But he did fill the bill"
s.Bosh! Jonah was myth. S'pose
the man ever lived that would pay his
steamboat fare in advance, and then be-
cause the sea got on tear ask the cap
tain to heave him overheard! Not
much, Jonah or no Jonah. Then here
comes the eraziest part of the yarn-tbe
whale swallowing Jonah and spouting
around with the old man tumbling about
in his belly tor three days and three
nights, and then h'istin' him out on dry
land safe and sound"
"You evidently don't believe in mira
cles." We jammed this sentence in edge
wise.
