Yes, He Could.

New bonnet, new bonnet-twelve dollars for a new bonnet '" exclaimed MT. Slick the other evening as his wife suggested q change from the winter styles.
 Yes, only twelve dollars" she hum- ply replied. ...-.... "Twelve dollars for bonnet is an outrage and I know it !'' he went on. "Why, I can buy two fine silk hats for that money and have some strawberry change left It's a dead swindle to ask $12 for bonnet" ~
 "Well, I can't do any better, Mir. Slick. That's the price, and must pay or go without" ~
 You don't know how to buy-that's what ails you?' he growled. "rn bet money l can buy SIP bonnet for $6. It's all in knowing how to handle the salesmen.n A& &A @
 II wish you'd try it," she suggested.
 II will-by George I will I'll bring you up a new bonnet in the morn ing, and I'll get it four dollars cheaper than you dare tor' #@#
 MT. Slick was as good as his word He went into millinery store next afternoon with his eye-teeth all sharp ened, and with the idea in his mind tha exactly twelve dollars. He looked around little, selected bonnet that pleased him, and pointing his cane at ii and calling up his deepest voice, he in quired: .s. .f Z .a 5.- .-.s
 Are you asking twelve dollars for that bonnet?'' ann
 The woman flushed, looked from the bonnet to the man, and was trying to re ply, when he said: -.
 "These are not the times for out rageous prices, and the buyers realize it I rll give you eight dollars for that bonnet and not cent more.n -.- ..-
 That-that bonnet" nf
 Eight dollars. and no more.n he in terrupted; and she put the article in g box and took his money. aef z.
 "What'd tell my wife, eh?" he whis pered, as he went out. II tell you il takes man to buy goods, no matter whether it's fence-posts or paper cam. bric .n aEa ~@ @ ss
 When he sat down at home and took the cover off the box and held up tht bonnet, Mrs. Slick inquired: al
 '" How much did she charge you?'
 Eight dollars, madam; while you would have paid twelven' sr .ss
 Richard !'' she said, as she tried te laugh all over at once, '.I was with th' lady next door when she ordered that | bonnet for hor eovl>, e.nd rfIU price Was to be four dollars! You see, it-"

Where :?

Where? dream in my dreamy hours, ~ Alone in the twilight sweet,
 Of fa pleasant nook; The green all pricked with azure flowers, And lapsing at my feet ~. A mnrmuring brook. 03 The strong gray rock through feathery fen And dappled moss-cup gleams;
 The harebells nod Y His shard the golden beetle turns To catch the sun-the cricket seems
 In velvet shod. The bird plums there his pretty wings, And then his beak he dips " Within the stream; And on the branches sits and sings A tender note, that outward slips
 As in dream. sA And dreanily within my dream A lengthening vista spreads,
 Arched by the vine, Where softened alabasters gleam Mid morning glory threads
 And eglantine. My dream is very fair, so soft The light, so sweet the shade; er
 And all the hue Of all the blooms, allow, aloit, Are from the sky and sunshine made
 Of gold and blue.
 n sE8 This peaceful dream, this vision sweet This light upon an unknown day,
 Is it for me, ~ &@} s A rest for these o'er- weary feet Or gleams from that all brightening ray,
 Beyond to be!

Life.

When through the dead leaves OCT the ground The flowers oi spring are srringing, When through the boughs with new life
 crowned, a ef sa The birds of spring are singing, He With hand in hand, and lip to iip, aM We cheerily sing, and merrily trip, And love to life is ciinSing. tza But when, on lies horizon, May
 In sparkling light is lying, D. s1s We taste the sweetness that tor aye.
 Was coaxing, teasing. dying; And with June's pleasant peace endow Lies largess left on lip and brow,
 While love with life is vying.

The Lenox Library, in New York, generously given to the public by the collector, MT. James Lenox, is the most comprehensive and valuable collection of rare books and manuscripts in Ameri- ca. and in some respects rivals Ill lnl- nortance the celebrated European libra rics, though of course not covering so extensive field. It is well known to professional literary men and bibliophil- ists. though the general public are largely ignorant concerning it. The institution was incorporated in 1870. when Mr.
 Lenox made over to the trustees his in- valuable collection, the work of a long career, with all the opportunities that large wealth and extensive research could furnish. The library building was also provided by the public-spirited gen. tlenan, the total value of his gift amounting to upward of a n,;nson, aoi lors amono tho -rSonnens o1 carry " .,..y which it contains is copy of the Mazarin Bible-the first book ever printed with movable types-the work of the old German printers Gutenberg and Faust between. l450 and. l455. It is beautifully illuminated, and cost g, $50.

 Delighted it sat ... ..s- -......- As if on hat, .& @

 And never made even a moan,
 Till a bad little boy, In a tremor of joy,
 Knocked him down off his perch with a
 stone A man may be very good in executing orders, but he can't hold candle to woman in the matter of giving advice on any subject under the sun. sssa 'Tis now the festive little boy
 In the stagnant pond goes swimming; 'Tis now lair Arabella's tile saas

 Such as has never been seen before.

Keepers in menagerie divide their charges into six classes, hay animals, cat animals, monkeys, elephants, birds, and fishes If a keeper of the cat ani- mals is killed, or if he leaves his situa- tion, the management look about for an experienced man to take his place. If they cannot find any, they promote one of the oldest and trustiest hay animal keepers to the vacant position. The cat animals comprise everything of natur- ally savage nature. including the lions. The hay animals include deer, giraffes, and the like. In the elephant class are included rhinoceroses and hippopotami. It requires a particularly steady and trustworthy man to care for the " "cats, i" which can never be handled or changed from cage to cage without precautions, no matter how tame they may seem to | be. - .r. rcd
