There are many WAYS IN which We
can annoy our friends without intending
TO do 80. A few OF these are easily
stated. Never call upon people out OF
season-in business hours. Idle per-
sons are apt to have too little cOnsidera-
ton for those who are ousy. Call upon
business people on business in business
hours, but not for n long friendly chat
on matters and things in general. Call
upon your neighbors in their homes at
such hours as they will be prepared TO
receive you, aud not before they are
down stairs in the morning, or while
they are at dinner, or just as they are
going TO bed. Never stop people upon
the street, If they appear 10 be in a
hurry, and huttonhole them for ten or
twenty minutes Neither is it good
taste, when You see two persons engaged
in earnest talk, to step in and enter upon
miscellaneous conversation. A man's
ordinary instincts ought TO know at once
when his company is desired and when
il is nuisance. II is also a great i'm
pertinence 10 strike in with something
entirely foreign to the subject when one
is in the midst of story or a statement,
or an argument, and 10 persist in talking
about "tbis, that and everything" to
one who is trying 10 read the morning
paper, or n book or anything else.
Whenever a man is so absorbed that he
does not care 10 reply to what YOU say,
it is time TO stop talking. There are n
legion of other annoyances, equally
trying Carelessness in keeping appoint.

TO church, or the concert, or the lecture,
and always in creaking boots delay in
important letters borrowing
new books from the owner before he has
had time TO read them, and returning

scribbling foolish comments on the
margin always depending upon

weekly paper when You are as well able

A friend OF mine who has been in the
habit Of hunting deer in the Adirondack
mountains, is of the opinion that the
deer is often more than a match for the
dog in sagacity. The deer seems TO be
well aware tbat the dog is guided by his
faculty Of scent in tracking him and
all the deer's efforts are directed TO baf-
fling and thwarting this keen and won
derful sense with which the dog is
gifted.
With this purpose, the deer will often
make enormous leaps, or run around in
circle so as 10 confuse and puzzle his
pursuers. He will mount q stone wall,
and run along it for some distance, well
aware that the dog cannot scent him so
well on the rock as on the grass. II he
can find pond or stream OF water. the
deer will plunge in and swim a long dis
tance, so that the dogs may loose his
trail.
1t is joyful sound TO the poor, hunt
ed deer when the dogs send up that sad,
dismal howl, which they give utterance
to when they have lost all scent Of the
deer, and despair of finding it. He is
then a happy deer. He hides quietly
n some covert among the bushes, and
he will take care 10 place himself where
the wind will carry all odors of his body
away from the direction where he sup
poses the dogs 10 be.
So you zee the deer is by no means
stupid animal. He knows better than
many a little boy how to take care of
himself and get out Of the way Of danger.
From a correspondent in Springfield,
Mo-, have letter, in which the writer
says Il suppose the Boston boys don't
have deers for pets. have young one
named Billy, and he eats corn ont of
my pocket When I come home from
school he always runs TO meet me. Al
though he can jump over fences, he
never tries to run away. He wears a
collar with bell on it so we can hear
him when he is down in the orchard eat
ing apples, Of which he seems to be very
fond Uncle Charles, in Nursery.

A Sad Story OF the Sea.

Very sad IN the story OF the sinking of
the British training ship Eurydice. She
had been on a cruise 10 the West Indies,
with about go young men in training
for the navy, and officers, seamen and
passengers, making the whole number
on board between 800 and 400. She bad
been for some days expected at Ports
mouth, and was nearing her destination
with full spread sails--an object OF adj
miration TO the visitors who crowded the
esplanade at Ventnor, on the Isle of
Wight. Suddenly the sky was darkened;
snow and sleet fell amid violent gusts of
wind, the binding storm obscuring
svery thing from the sight Of those on
shore. The squall was brief, but when
il had passed, the Eurydice had disap-
peared. Capsized by the gale, she had
sunk rs in an instant, carrying 10 death
her human freight. Five persons only
were picked mp by a passing schooner,
and but two of those survived to tell the
brief details of the disaster The wreck
occurred on the southern coast of the Isle
Of Wight, off Dunnose Head, about half
past four o'clock in the afternoon.

Ghinampu'S bones.

According 70 n San Francisco oorre-
spondent, whenever n Chinaman Is sick
and beyond recovery, he is placed in
some out-of-the- way place and left 10
die. None of his countrymen ever 60
near him, and he is left 10 paddle his
own canoe across the Styx in his exit
from this mundane sphere. When the
deceased is buried, however, offerings
will be made at the grave, and in time
his bones will be sent back to China, in
accordance with the contract made with
the six companies which brought him
here or from subscriptions by Chinese
merchants. Every year there are tons
of bones Of defunct Cinnamon sent 10
China TO be buried. The business OF
e1huming and packing these bones is an
extensive one, and, very naturally, il is
pursued by Mongols Many of these
bones are polished. When disinter-
ments are in progress the graveyards of
the Chinese present the appearance Of q
Golgotha. Very small wooden coffins
are used, Just large enough to contain
the bones OF the deceased. IL In pro-
posed 10 impose tax OF ten dollars on
every dead body disinterred, and TO re-
quire the bones 10 be placed in n me-
tallic case, the price Of which is some
fifty dollars. The object Of which is TO
prevent spread OF infections diseases by
careless exhuming.

Something Abont Heads.

The Scientific American IL authority
for what follows: Complete roundness
is most nearly attained by skull from
Tartary, Of which 97.7 is the index Of
breadth. With this Huxley contrasts a
head from New Zealand Of 62.9 az the
narrowest of all known skulls. Bernard
Davis has obtained. however, n so-called
Celtic skull which has an index of fifty
eight, 30 that these indices for extremes
fluctuate between fifty eight and ninety
eight, but the average is only between
sixty.seven and about eighty-fve. King
Kalakaua seems TO have head curious
ly protuberant along the entire left side,
and in marked contrast with that OF Mr..
Manton Marble, whose conform shows
protuberance on the rear, and almost in
dentation forward on the same side. II
will also be observed that in almost ev-
cry example here given-and the same
holds true in the great majority Of all in
stances-the left side is post protuber-
ant. It may be surmised between this
circumstance and the fact pointed out
by Brown-Sequard, that the left lobe Of
the brain comes into greater use, in its
control OF the right side Of the body,
than the right lobe, which governs the
left side.
