Poor. but Respectable.

This is the way it is played: A man past
the prime of life, poorly dressed, and hav-
ing a mournful culver in his voice, takes
two old oyster cans, partly fills them with
sand. does them up in neat shape. and. Sc
lecting . house, he calls the lady to the
door, and says:
Madame, I'm old and poor, but I'm not a
thief. / found these oyster cans on the
street, and won't you be good enough to
keep 'em till the owner calls2''
why, the owner may never call, )" replies
the lady.
That's SO; but I'm not able to buy milk
and crackers, even If / had oysters; you'd
better keep 'em a while anyhow. II no one
comes the cans are yours"
Sometimes the old man makes a quarter,
and sometimes only bite to eat. The
owner does not arrive, and the family pre-.
pare for fried oysters for supper. When the
paper Is torn some folks laugh =
and some don't. Some say they'll hunt over
every rod of ground in the United States
but they'll find the old man and make him
eat the last grain of sand and the cans to

who was leaning back IN a recumbent posi-
ton against the board fence, near service
pipe he had been engaged in repairing. 1t
was one of those cold days, and the mechanic
was with difficulty aroused from that de-
lghtful fatal stupor that precedes death by
freezing.
"Whst are you doing there, l say?' he re.
peated, with another vigorous shake.
"Mending that pipe" replied the half.dazed
plumber.
"But it's done, amt it?'

"Why don't you go home, then?'
"Sir,' he replied, and there was IN his face
that exalted look which the martyr who die.

than day out o. that job couldn't stay in

The passion flowers DER her bright head
urooped,
The roses twined their faint rich blooms above
her,
Great crimson fuchsia bells with myrtle
grouped,
White lilies watched the maiden and her lover;
The warm air round them fragrant with the
breath
OF violets nesting in their messy wreath.
The fountains silvery tinkle, softly Ginning,
Blent with sweet laughter and with low re-
plies.
As past the arch, the music's pulses timing,
Flashed flying feet, flushed cheeks and spark
ling eyes.
And tinted lamps and mellow moonlight
strove
To light the happy dream of youth and love.
A little yea--a pale girl stood alone,
Where withered tendrils choked a fountain s
lip,
And mid the ivies, rank and overgrown.

FLASHED where mid shattered glass and broad
arch barred
A struggling rose tree kept its silent guard.

the attack the animal had HIM upon its
horns, and, ripping the body open with the
exertion, tossed him high in the air, while
his blood spurted out in his face. The man
fell with heavy thud upon the soil, and in
an instant the bull was goring him again and
again. In vain the others tried to divert his
attention from the man, or endeavor to res
cue their fallen companion from his terrible
fate. In less time than it takes TO nsrrate
the episode the poor fellow was lifeless
corpse. 1t was
SOUL sIcKENING SIGHT.
Some of the women tainted at once, while
the others screamed In terror and horror at
the scene. All this connection, combined
with the scent of fresh blood, wrought the
bull into state of frenzy, and it swept
around and across the Enclosure with such
violence and rapidity that the men could
with difficulty escape from its rushing at
lacks. The cry was given TO open the gate
and let the bull pass out into the stall in
which it had been kept, but the gate keeper
had become too terrified to understand the
order or to perform his duty, and the gate
remained closed. The nerve OF my guide
never faltered for an instant, but seeing the
terror OF the others, and witnessing the fury
OF the animal, he drew his long knife and
calmly awaited the next rush to make the
fatal thrust that should terminate the ex-
isteDce of the bull and the scene of excite
ment. Once more the bull swooped down
toward him, and he stood ready to strike the
knife into its neck, but as he attempted to
spring back and let the bull pass by him be-
fore doing so. his foot slipped, and he was at
once impaled upon the horns of the beast,
and in a moment

serious effect, but only appeared to increase

Care Of the Feet.

Many OF the colds SO prevalent at this sea-
sod commence at the feet; therefore TO keep
these extremities warm is to effect an insur-
aDce against the almost interminable list Of
disasters which spring out OF a slight cold"
First, never be tightly shod. Boots or
shoes, when they fit too closely, press
against the foot SO as to prevent the free cir
culation of the blood. When, ON the con-
trary, they at comparatively loosely,
the blood has free course, and the spaces
left between the leather and the stock
ing become filed with comfortable supply
of warm air. The second rule is. never sit
in damp shoes 1t is often imagined that
unless they are positively wet it is not nee
essary to change them. This is a fallacy, foI
when the least dampness is absorbed to the
sole it is attracted to the foot by its warmth
and thus the perspiration is dangerously
checked. Any person can prove this by
trying the experiment of negIecting thii
rule. The feet will become cold and damn
very shortly, although on taking off tn,
shoes and warming them they will appea
quite dry.
