DON'T BE Too Sensitive.

There are many people always
looking out for sights. They cam
not carry on the daily intercourse
of the family without finding that
some Offense is designed. They are
as touchy as hair-triggers. If they
meet an acquaintance who happens
to be preOccupied with business,
they attribute his abstraction to
some matter personal to themselves,
and take umbrage accordingly
They lay On others the fruit of
their utter irritability. Indigestion
makes them see impertinence in
every one they come in contact
with. IOnnOcent persons, who never
dreamed of giving Offense, are as
tOnished to find some unfortunate
word, or mOmentary taciturnity,
mistaken for an insult. To say the
least, the habit is unfortunate. 1t
is far wiser to take the more chart
table view of our fellOW-beingS, and
not suppose that a slight is intend
ed unless the neglect is open and
direct. After all, too, life takes its
hues in great degree from the
color of our own minds. If we are
frank and generous, the world treats
us kindly; if, on the contrary, we
are suspicious, men learn to be cold
and cautious toward us. Let a per-
son get the reputation of being
''tOuchy," and everybody is under
restraint; and in this way the chan
ces of an imaginary Offense are in
creased.

least secure her esteem, for he knew
she was tenderly attached to the be-
ing that lay in an unconscious state
before him. Daylight at length
dawned, and as the mild rays of the
sunshine stole in upon the sleeper
he seemed to awake from his dor

her face, and the tears she tried in
vain to restrain trickled down her
face as he handed her hand to herneW
friend. Fletcher thought he never
saw a being half so beautiful. There
she stood, as pale as statute, with
her golden hair coiled loosely at the

of intense agony depicted ON her
face. Yet the tear-dimmed eyes
gave a soft, dreamy expression to

back to his office to make out some
prescriptions awaiting him. Day

THE following is the deliberate
Judgment of Admiral Porter, our
highest naval authority, concerning
the present pitiable plight of our
navy, and occurs in a communities
ton addressed to the late secretary
of the navy and by him transmit
ted to Congress:
"In case Of war between this
nation and England, the English
navy could batter its way into any
of our harbOrs and destroy them /;
and any ordinary ship in the Brit
ish-naVy could blockade any of our
harbOrs, could keep in every ship
that was there, and keep out every
ship that was on the outside. One
single vessel of the English navy
could whip everything we have got,
1t is no eXaggeration to say that the
InfieXible, for instance, could go
through our whole navy. Our ships
might fire at her all day, and not
hurt her. Her people would go
down to their dinner quietly while
we were firing at her. Our ships
could not run. away from her, be-
cause she makes her fourteen knots
an hour on a measured mile, and
the fastest of our monitors only
makes eight miles,"

Against Dyspepsia and DespOndenc

BY A FRoLICsOME PHILOSOPHER (DEMoCRI-
TUS HELYETICUS).
''What's the difference between q
doctor of medicine and a doctor of
laws" asked an ardent disciple of
Aesculapius of a jealous follower of
Themis. "The difference is Obvi-
Ous," quickly replied the barrister.
"a doctor of medicine makes short
trials and a doctor of laws (lawyer)
long trials"

exclaimed a lawyer emphatically
while earnestly pleading for his eli
ent. eyes, you have; at least you
keepyOurselfatanadequate distance
from it," was the sarcastic reply of
his legal opponent.
Another lawyer accused one of his
colleagues, in open court, of lying.
The offended party Immediately
took revenge by saying: "No, sir,
/ do not lie, for fear you might con-
slider it an encroachment upon your
professional business.
A book agent from the HOOsier
State was travelling through Penn
sylvania. OnemOrning whilestrOll-
ing up the street in a village in the
coal regions, he saw a buXOm mai
den come out of a house with sour
krOut on plate. Bent on having
some fun with the rural divinity, he
said with ill-concealed mischievOus-
ness: "That is a nice sOurkrOut, IL
there only were some pork on it. :"
Eyes, why don'tyOu sit on ii ," was
the rather unexpected rejoinder of
the Outspoken maiden.
"What is your name ," inquired
Il presiding Jacobine Judge Of a
French nobleman during the French
revolution. Il am the Marquis de
Saint Cyr." "You can't call your
self any longer Marquis, because the
revolution has abolished nobility
and considers all citizens equal"
"Well, then l am at least de Saint
or" "YOu can't call yourself any
more de for the same reason, =" thun-
dered the Jacobine." "WeH, Saint
or is then my name" "The rev.
olution lscOgnizes no more saints"
Nothing else is left to me but Cyr,"
stammered the nobleman, startled
at such a summary execution of his
name. "There are no more Cyrs
(Sires) now" shouted the merciless
Judge. Thus the marquis name
was slaughtered off.
Two Irishmen were travelling
