What Constitutes Rubbish.

The term is an entirely correlative
one what is rubbish to one person un.
der certain circumstances being under
altered conditions extremely valuable to
another. Gold itself is rubbish in the
eyes Of man who is starving on a des-
ert island and the pearls which adorn
a royal diadem, and have made the for
tune Of the lucky finder, were probably
felt to be worse than useless by the poor
oyster, tormented by the presence of
some particle OF matter which he felt to
be decidedly "out of place" within his
shell. Many cook, no doubt, has
washed the little fresh water bleak, a
fish about four inches long. and had
thoughtlessly poured away the water
after the operation before it occurred to
the French beadmaker that the lustrous
silve,y sediment deposited at the bottom
Of the vessel might be turned to account
in the manufacture OF artificial pearls or
pearl beads.

Great News.

We are creditably informed that there
will be five Sundays in February of next
year, and the same veracious writer to
whom we are indebted for this fact sup
plements his statement with the remark
able prophecy that not until 1920 will
another February be able to boast such
a plethora of First Day. There is
something remarkable in the fact that
this surplussage of Sunday should occur
in leap year; it really looks as though
there were management in this thing.
But be that so or not, if the unmarried
young lady with yearnings after matri-
mony does not take advantage of the
coming bissextile February with its
culinary opportunities for marital en-
couragement, she is not the unmarried
young lady with matrimonial yearnings
that we take her for.-Bost Trans.

Both iA Norway and Sweden the
women preponderate in number over the
men. ~ the last census of Norway, in
1873, the total population was l,8l7,0O0,
OF which $4,000 were males and 93l,.
900 females, being at the rate of 48S
males and 5l2 females to every 1000 of
the population. In Sweden the proper
ton of births is at che rate OF iii boys
to 4S9 girls ou. of the 1000; but the
mortality is in favor of the females, for
the census returns of 1876 showed 4S6
men p 5l4 women out Of every 1000
of the population.

a Bore.

Once in travelling the Rev. DR.. BIed-
soc was exceedingly annoyed by pc,
dantic bore who forced himself upon him,
and made a great parade of his shallow
learning. The doctor bore it as long as
he could, and at length; looking at him
gravely, said; "My friend, yon and l
know all that is to be known" "How
is that" said the man, pleased with what
he thought very complimentary asso-
citation, "Why," said the doctor, "you
know everything except that you Iare =
fool, and know that"

ALONE.

She stands beside the cottage door
To watch the dying day,
Her raven hair is spr!nkled DER
With flakes of silver gray;
And many q line of sadness sears
That pale yet lovely face,
To mark where slow and silent tears
Have left their lasting trace.
And still her whispered thoughts Will tell
OF scenes tina. are no more,
And scan the once-loved forms that dwe!t
On mem rvs shadowy shore;
Again the little cot to deck,
That now so empty stands,
again to feel around her neck
The touch of tiny hands.
How long, the weary spirit cries,
Within this world of pain,
Ere meath the never fading skies
meet them once again?
And as she views the silver night,
Slow sweeping to the West.
A murmured prayer in faith takes flight
To Him who giveth rest.

Table Etiquette

Numerous applications having been
made asking US to fN set Of rules for
t,ble etiquette, we accordingly respond
with pleasure;
/. 1t is proper to place your napkin
so that the gravy may not fill on your
shirt front When YOU are through you
can ram it down between your shirts,
and, if nobody is looking, you win a
napkin.
;, On no consideration wipe your
nose on your napkin. The table cloth
was made for this purpose
3. 1t is not considered proper to place
your butter on one side of tie plate.
If small plates are not provided wipe
your knife of on your head. What is
left will do fo- hair oil.
4, Eat only with your fork. Never
place your knife in your mouth, We
knew man who once cut his mouth
around TO where he parted his hair by
violating this rule.
.. Never pour your tea in the saucer.
1t spoils it, and, besides, somebody may
steal it when you're not looking, Well
made tea is very enervating drink,
but most women make water, and very
weak water at that, and is additionally
weakened by pouring it in the saucer
6, If YOU get piece Of hot meat in
your mouth, do not spit it in your plate.
Take it in your hand and slide it down
your neighbor's back If he objects,
punch him in the nose.
7, In sitting down on your chair make
believe somebody has placed pin on it.
Then you can jump, yell and kick half
the dishes off the table. This produces
a very fine efect--you are pitied, and
can eat your dinner in peace, as all the
children are generally spanked and sent
to bed for putting the pin where it was
not.
s. Don't mistake the contents of the
finger glasses for lemonade unless you
first put sugar in it.
8. If you get a mouthful OF hot tea
squirt it through your teeth, and tell
the company that that's the way that
they sprinkle clothes in Chinese laun-
dries. They will then think that you
have traveled-and probably wish that
you pay do so some more.
10. Ii it is warm, ask the prettiest
young lady at the table if she sweats.
Under no circumstances use the word
"perspire. If she bushes, tell her her
face looks like raw ham. This will
make the rest of the people laugh, and
you will save dentists bill.
II. If anybody gets off joke, say
"That's as old as the butter" This will
save the expense of q porter.
u. Ask the bald-headed man Of the
if he was spun on his head for
the drinks when he was little. In the
absence of bald-headed man turn the
attention of all present to the toothless
old woman by telling her that you can
get her job in the post Office cumming
stamps, or in a drug store biting holes
in porous plasters.
l3. If your head itches, put on
troubled look, and scratch your head
thoughtfully. If anybody asks you
what you are thinking Of, say BUGS!
lin capital letters, This is sure to Gre
ate laugh.
IA. When you pass plate filed with
meat, gravy and potatoes, drop it just
as the other party reaches for it. Then
apologize by saying you thought they
chad their grip on it" Very funny
effect.
Readers who carefully follow these
rules will gain the respect of their fel-
low-men and die happy-though per-
haps very young
