are selling skates with life-preserv-

We feel assured that all purchasers
will fall in with them. The re-

Three Jolly husbands out in the

sat late one evening drinking at 9
village tavern, until being pretty
well "corned," they agreed that
each one, on returning home,
should do the first thing that his
wife told him, 10 default of which
he should next morning pay the
bill.
The next morning Walker and
Brown were early at their posts,
but IL was some time before Wat
son made his appearance. Walker

The Singular Habit OF the woodcocL

The Singular Habit OF the woodcock.
Among several curious habits Of
the voodcock, described by the
editor Of the Zoologist, its practice
of carrying its young is perhaps
the most interesting. The testi-
mony Of many competent witness
es is cited to confederate the state
ment. The late L. Lloyd, in his
Scandinavian Adventures" wrote /:
"If, in shooting, you meet with a
brood Of woodcocks, and the young
ones cannot fiy, the old bird takes
them separately between her feet,
and flies from the dogs with a
moaning cry"
The same author makes a similar
statement in another work, this
habit of the woodcock having been
observed by friend.
One of the brothers Stuart gives,
in "Days of the Deer Forest" a
graphic account Of the perform
ance. He says: "As the nests
sre laid on dry ground, and often
at a distance from moisture, in the
latter case, as soon as the young
ere hatched, the old bird will some
times carry them in her claws tc
the nearest spring or green stripe
In the same manner, when 10 dan
ger, she viii rescue those which
she can lift of this we have fire
quent opportunities for observs
ton in Tsrnaway. Various time
when the hounds, in beating th,
ground, have come upon q brood
We have seen the old bird rise will

The One Stubborn Juror.

A good judicial anecdote is told
BY FAY" in the Louisville Courier
Journal. In one OF the western
States 8 case was tried, and at its
termination the Judge charged the
Jury, and they retired for consul
tstion. Hour after hour passed
and no verdict was brought in.
The Judges dinner hour arrived,
and he became hungry and impa-
tent. Upon inquiry he learned
that one obstinate juryDan was
holding out against eleven. That
he could not stand. and ordered the
twelve men brought before him.
He told them that 10 his charge to
them he had so plainly stated the
case and law that the verdict
ought to be unanimous, and the
man who permitted his individual
opinion to weigh against the judg-
ment of eleven men of wisdom was
unfit and disqualified ever again to
act in the capacity Of jurymen. At
