chimed in, and we made the air ring

and walked off so Disguised, but / was
very glad we snubbed him. He was

l was quite ashamed at the thought of
seeing Jack, and hung my tail with
proper humility. Fortunately he was
not at home, so l was put on the door
step with note tied on my tail, which
l afterward discovered ran as follows:
DEAR PAPA-Country life doesn't agree
with me- / have eaten up eight bonnets,
chewed two butter-ladles, one So note, torn
thres tablecloths and five sheets, eaten six
pieces Of soap and other articles too numerous
to mention. Mrs. Green says if / stay any longer
j will ruin the family.

wasn't it cute in Maize to write that
note and hang it on his tail; but did he
really write it, Jack?",
Why" he replied, don't you see
his name at the end, Major, as plain
as can be?"
Isn't it funny" said she, he makes
an M with tail to it just like Tom
Green?"
Oh" said Jack, girls never under

he whistled for me to take a walk with
him. All this occurred long time ago,

WASHINGTON is in danger of an in
vasion by yellow fever. About 300
acres of the low country south of the
Presidential mansion have been used as
depository for refuse from the city
sewage, and it is apprehended that a
pestilence may break out next summer
on very slight provocation, such as
the introduction of single case of yell
low fever, unless the flats are cleaned
up at an early day.

IT is no unusual thing for criminals
to escape conviction and punishment
upon technical bubbles which to the
non-legal mind appear absurdly puerile,
but it is not often that thief crawls
out of so small hole as that through
which defendant in n Washington
court was able to gain his liberty. He
was proved to be guilty of having per-
sonated an army officer and drawn his
pay; but it was also proved that the
sum due the defrauded officer was one
third of a cent greater than that charged
in the indictment, and for this reason
the defendant was acquitted. The
majesty of the law seems to be capable
of some very small performances.

THIS is the season for taking colds,
and the Popular Science Monthly tells
how to prevent it. 1t says the mistake
is often made of taking great care to
put on extra wraps and coats when pre-
pairing for outdoor exercise. This is
not ut all necessary in robust persons.
Sufficient heat to prevent all risk OF
chill is generated in the body by exer-
else. The care should be taken to re-
tain sufficient clothing after exercise,
and when at rest, to prevent the heat
from passing out of the body. Indeed,
persons very often catch chills from
throwing off extra clothing after exer-
else, or from sitting about In garments
the material of which is not adapted to
prevent the radiation of heat from the

The great suspension bridge that is
being built across the East river, to con-

lyn, has become an elephant of gigantic
proportions to the taxpayers of those
two cities. Thus far, including the
price paid for land on each shore and
the cost of construction, 50, 750,000 has
been expended, and it is estimated that
mt least $3,500,000 additional will be re-
quired to finish it. And it is now be-
lieved that, even after being finished,
the public will prefer the ferry boats

COMPULSORY education is just now
receiving a good deal of attention in
Pennsylvania, and the State Sup0rin-
tendent of Public Instruction has pre-
pared the draft of bill intended TO
deal with the question of educating the
large class of destitute and neglected
children who are growing up in isnor-
ance and training for future crime.
The principal features of the bill are to
provide reports as to the number of
children receiving no education; for
the enforcement of existing laws in re-
lation to the employment of children,
and for the provision in each county of
homes for friendless children, TO which
habitual truants, young Migrants, and
children who are receiving no educa-
ton may be committed by proper Off

A YOUNG Bedford (Va.) fellow lost his
way in footing it over the Blue Ridge,
and had a narrow escape from what
might have been a living tomb. He
climbed a large chestnut tree at night,
as he was afraid to sleep on the ground,
but in crawling into the hollow top,
where it had been brohen by the wind,
the tree was proved to oe mere shell
and he fell forty feet into its depths. A
small knot-hole supplied the prison
with air, and, by picking at the wood
with his fingers, the captive got hole
big enough to let him out just before
dark the next night.

JUSTICE is well served at Philadelphia
when John S. Morton, who forged a
million of stock for the Market Street
railway, of which he was President, is
sent to prison for ten years. Morton's
is brilliant fall. His crimes extend
back for years, and, with the period OF
contraction and a falling market, his
ultimate disgrace was certain. Yet the
forger pushed himself forward to the
Presidency of the Permanent Centen.
NAL Exhibition, and even struggled foI
the highest Office of his State. Look
upon that picture and then on this. A

a portrait of Morton, the great grandson
of one of the signers of the Declaration
of Independence, as gubernatorial can.

of the transgressor is hard" is rather
