Words of Wisdom.

We are apt to consider an act wrong because it is unpleasant to us.
 Souls have complexions too; what will suit one will not suit another.
 The mirage of falsehood is often mis- taken for theverdant valley of truth.
 To succeed one must sometimes be very bold, and sometimes very prudent.
 When gratitude has become matter of reasoning, there are many ways of escaping from it's bonds.
 People glorify all sorts of bravery ex- cept the bravery they might bestow in behalf of their neighbors.
 Ones self-satisfaction is an untaxed kind of property which it is very un- pleasant to find appreciated.
 Cheerfulness makes the mind clearer, gives tone to the thoughts and adds grace and beauty to the countenance.
 Misunderstanding are frequently the cause of numberless discussions that often could be rectified with kindness.
 Every mans work, pursued steadily, lends to become an end of itself and so to bridge over the loveless chasms of his life.
 By observation and experiment. alone can the mind of man arrive at knowl- edge of the laws which rule th" uni verse

4 s,entra, American Wedding

In Central America is country called Towka, and without doubt the Tow kans, whatever else they may be, are the jolliest people in the world at a wedding. They appear to be such an ignorant race as to be unable to keep record of the age of their children, eX- cept in 8 manner somewhat similar to tbat adopted by Robinson Crusoe with his notched post for an almanac. The Towkans, however, do not notch their children. They hang round their necks at birth string with one bead on, and at the expiration Of year they add an other bead, and so on, the main object being seemingly that there may be no mistake when the young people arrive at a marriageable age. When a girl numbers fifteen beads she is marriage able, but the young man must possess necklace of twenty before he is reckoned capable of taking on himself SO serious a responsibility. But the wedding feast is the thing.
 The invited guests assemble on what answers to our village green, and set in their midst is a canoe, the property ot the bride groom, brimming with palm wine, sweetened with honey, and thick ened with crushed plantains. The drinking cups are calabashes, which are set floating in the fragrant liquor, and seated round it, the company fall to-a mark of politeness being to drink out of as many calabashes that have been drank out of by somebody else as possi- ble. It should be mentioned, however. to the Towkan's credit, that his bride is not present at this tremendous drinking bout, or, rather, boat. She remains in her parents hut, and when her intended has finished with the calabashes he takes his whistle of bamboo and his "tom-tom," which is a hollow little log, tied over at each end with bits ot leather, and, seating himself at the door of the dwel filing of lis parents-in-iaw in prospective, he commences to bang and tootle sweet music, until the heart of the tender creature within is softened, and they let him in.

Not a Panorama.
verse.

An old man with satchel and cane yesterday stood in front of the Detroit opera house for long half-hour, sur veyine the building with curious eye, and he finally entered, walked up to the box office and asked:
 What's the regular prIce to go in?"
 "Well, about six shillings," answerod d Shaw.
 "I'll give you ten cents!"
 The treasurer hesitated for a while, but finally took the money and told him to go up. The old man went up stairs to find everything dark and deserted. He took q seat, fixed his gaze on the drop-curtain and didn't get tired out for about half an hour. Then he walked down stairs with slow and dignified step, put his head into the box-office and said:
 'sIf you call that panorama then you don't know what a panorama is, and if folks come along and pay six shillings to see it, there's a heap of fools in this country! Good day"-Detroa Free Press.

Two Queer Cats.

4 letter to the Red Bank (N. J.) Register gives the following particulars about couple of queer eats: Dr. Ridg. way, 8 few days ago, showed us photo graph of his two cats, "Ourie'' and Dot" (and "Go-Two," so named from her manner of walking,) taken in the attitudes in which ohey play together, one sitting upon her hind legs, and the other crouching as if to spring at her antagonist The latter we have already mentioned as having been born with only three legs, one in front and only one shoulder, though the doctor men, tioned to us, as if by way of compensa- tion to the cat, that she had @ ''congeni- tai umbilical hernia" Cor an expla- nation of which those interested in anomalies can inquire of their family physicians.) She is quite active, can catch mice, climb tree, and run like a good fellow; is quite intelligent, and when the bell rings for meals she calls her master, and takes her place on the lounge near him. The other, ''Ourie, /" (so called by her mother when quite young the kangaroo cat" and mate of Dot" has two false joints about two and half inches up the forepaws, say half way up the legs; or to spe;-'k more correctly, the joints being weak bend backward when she walks or sits on hem. This f1atr pos, which was unno- ticed at her birth, has caused the fore legs to be very little used, and by using thu, hind ones so frequently the former remain quite small, while the latter are remarkably developed, compelling her when she wishes to see around her or be fed to raise herself on the latter like a kangaroo, and when she walks to thrust the former before her like man walk ing on his hands and feet at the same time. The head, neck and shoulders remaining quite small, as well as the fore legs, makes her walk with her head lower than her hind quarters, say ''very like" bear Were Darwin to repub- fish his Descent of Man, he might use this plahtigrade cat to demonstrate that we were returning to the original mon- key (through the cat), who, he argues was our common ancestor She also is very lively. catching mi 2, climbing trees, etc.. and to see them playing to- gether is most amusing.

On the Right Side.

It is better to lie upon the right side than the left, because in this position the food gravitates more easily out of the stomach into the intestines, and the weight of the liver, a pretty large and heavy organ, does not rest upon other internal organs. Some people are apt to sleep with one arm above the head be- cause it makes free circulation in the n ok and upper extremities, and respira- ton is made easy, but it is apt to cause headache, cramps and dreams. There is one good reason why this last posi- tion should be avoided. If the arm gets beneath the head, important nerves may be pressed upon and temporary paralysis result. Such cases are by no means rare, and the paralysis may con tinue several weeks.
