NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

was delighted the other morning on
coming down to breakfast. My landlord,
knowing my aversion to flies, had, unknown
to me, bought and rigged up a patent fly
brush. 1t hung on a hail in the ceiling over
the table where usually sit; the sails were
spread out at right angles and coverod,when
in motion, the entire surface of the table,
Mine host had just wound the thing up,
and IL was running at the rate of sixty miles
an hour. The wings spread out like the
sails of a windmill. Not a fly dared to
come within ten feet of the strange machine.
was delighted. Had the landlord
known my feelings, he would certainly
have raised my boordy and would have
paid il, too, without murmur.
At dinner l noticed few flies on the cord
that held the machine above my head.
At supper-time few daring old sinners
had descended to the box, which contained
the machinery, and were peeping into the
key hole, perhaps to see if Sally shooAy, the
hired girl, was hidden away in the strange
box.
Next morning noticed large fly perch
ed upon one of the sails. His wings were
gently drooped like those of a young chicken
when it first feels the warmth of the sun,
after shivering all night in the cold.
called the landlords attention to it, and
he said it was probably a fly from neigh
boring saloon that had got druhk nm beer.
knew that flies were fond of beer and
accepted his explanation, but l still had
serious doubts on the subject.
At dinner, counted over a dozen on the
sails, but they were too much delighted to
cause meany further trouble but by supper
time all the flies in the establishment had
gathered on the brush. They hugged each
other in wild, oCstatlc delight, and, as the
machine revolved past my pate,they would
plunge headlong into the coffee, milk, gravy
and molasses, like little boys diving of a
ferry boat.
The landlord, in a violet rage, ordered the
servant to take the machine down and cast
| it into the lumber-room, Thus ended my
first bright, extravagant dream of comfort.
But mislortunes seldom come alone, they
love a train, they tread each others heels"
Next to flies, bed bugs are nay pet aver

Now, If could only get a preparation to

soon came across an old German who
was selling bed-bug poison on the streets,
and bought bottle. 1t contained gill or
more of rcd fluid, but there were no direc-
tions on the bottle. demanded the high
way merchant to know how to use the stuff
he said

on. At last he flung it from him and
screamed,
"My soul Promise to give you MY soul
In the name of the fiend, who are your"
"Your humble servant" said the black
clad creature, bowing; and Hiram Gormley
saw cloven foot peeping from the the queer
boot and distinguished the perfume of brim-
stone.
Let me go!" he said. "Let ME gor'
"Softly |" said the creature at his elbow.
"softly why do yon care so much for what
you have already mortgaged? You are half

no man; belong to the church; and sub
scribed $50 to the missionaries year ago."
The dark being grinned contemptuously.
Bring me Mr.. Gormley's box," he said.
And he who had conveyed old Hiram
to the spot where he now stood set upon
the table box like that in which lawyers
keep the papers of their clints, labeled,
Hiram Gorrnley, Esq" From the depths
of this box he drew pile ofparchment, and
read fem thchce: a mortgage on the
soul of Hiram GorInley, given on the day
when he turned his daughter from the door.
Another, when he seized old widow Pot
ter's furniture for rent. Another, when he
took advantage of flaw in the papers to
evade the payment OF just debt of his own.
Myriads when he first began business, told
fifty lies day, and gave false weight and
measure, and one tremendous mortgage for
passing through the world without one low
ing, tender, sympathizing feeling for man
| kind.
"Your soul--bnh What is 1t worth
now?"
" I'll take it all back I'll have my
daughter and her husband home. I'll
pay
" Too late said the dark creature.
"Too late, Hiram Gorinley; too latel'
But the old man stretching out his hands,
screamed aloud in terror, and fell backwards
in Inconsistencies.
When Mrs. Gormley returned from the
dinner party she found her husband
stretched upon the hearth-rug, with blue
lump upon his forehead as large as a hens
egg.
When he related his adventure she con-
sidered it dream, and laid the blame upon
the old port in the decanter oil thesideboard;
but, dream or reality, it had strange inAu-
ence upon old Hiram, for in a week he was
reconciled to his daughter, had ignored the
flaw and made the settlement, performed
various unwonted acts of charity, and was
in fact, an utterly changed and altered man,
while, singular to say, no earthly power has
ever yet been able to induce Hiram Gormley
to speculate in bread stuis.

THE occasion on which Grace Darling
signalized herself was the wreck of the ForA

on her voyage from Hull to Dundee, on the

DIR. Plot, in his "Natural History of

Lady Child, of Shropshire, was married at
IL years of age, and had her first baby, a
daughter, before she completed her 18th

age of l2, and gave birth to child before
she reached IS. Thus Lady Child became

When the hot wave struck Arkansas, it

worlds cold charities to slip in our seething
bosom before our gizzard is totally cooked.
Oh for the bleak winds of adversely to fan
our blistering brow. And Oh for a chance
