A Hundred.DOllar Bill.

We have a story with moral for our
numerous subscribers who are in the
habit Of carrying 800 in their pockets.
A Hartford gentleman had d roll to that
amount when he went to his butchers on
Saturday. Monday he called on him
and said he must have dropped the roll
in his shop. Butcher said a man he
knew by sight came in just after the
gentleman was gone Saturday night,
and, after paying for his meat stopped
down, picked up "a roll, said he had
dropped his money!, and: walked
of: =, On the, +, following Saturday
this man returned and, was told
about the other mans loss. He
at once sent him check for the amount,
/ ana said he was in neighboring town
the week before, and was paid 500 just
as the train was leaving, SO he thrust it,
+ as he supposed, into his vest pocket.
/ When he was at the market he missed
it, and, looking down, saw the roll on
the floor, which he put into his pocket
again. A week after, while feeling in
his coat, which he had not worn during
the week. he found another roll in one
of the pockets, He atSonce posted to
the butchers to find if any one had lost
the sum. He was to have been arrested
the following Monday, ana would have
had hard work to prove his innocence
of the theft. ~ .:t>,rt '.',.s-' -i>T7 r.

The Two Knew Everything.

Once, in travelling, the Rev. Dr. Bled-
soc was exceedingly annoyed by a
pedantic 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, you and I know all there is
to be known" Glow is that?" said the
man, pleased with what he considered
a very complimentary association.
"Why," said the doctor, "you know
everything except that you are fool,
and I know that"

Dining with the Dead.

A mysterious dinner party was given
some time ago by an elderly gen
tleman, in the Hotel Demuth, at St.
Petersburg. One morning the gentle
man in question called on Mr.. Pintscher,
the manager Of the Demuth restaurant,
and ordered a luxurious repast for six,
of which he himself made out the menu,
selecting from the wine card the costli-
est vintages. He asked for an estimate
of the dinners cost, paid the amount of
his bill in advance, and requested that
everything should be prepared for the
entertainment of his guests at z o'clock
precisely, the same evening. At that
hour he entered the room reserved for
his banquet and took his place at the
head of the table. To the chief walters
respectful inquiry, whether he expect
ed his friends to arrive soon, as the
dinner was quite ready" he replied,
"They are all here! Let the soup be
served forthwithw By his express
command the puzzled attendants
then proceeded to help the. ab-
sent guests to course after
course, setting down full plates be-
fore the empty chairs, and pouring out
precious wines into the groups Of glasses
stationed before each untenanted place.
The gentleman ate and drank copiously,
now and anon clinking his glass against
the masterless, goblets ranged upon the
table to- his right and left. With, the
first round Of champagne, he arose and
made speech to his imaginary friends
from the tenor of which Grafton the
walters gathered that they had been en-
gagged in attending to personages long
since defunct. When the gentleman
had concluded his remarks, he again
went through the cGnking formaity,
drained the contents of his glass, and
turning to Mr.. Pintscher, chilled that
amazed functionarys blood by the fol:
lowing ghostly statement: To-day
celebrate my joyful meeting with my
beloved relatives--my dead wife, daugh:
ter, and three sons, two of whom fell in
the last campaign. Do not be afraid;
am not mad: It has done me q power
of good to spend this happy hour or sc
with my family. You may look for mt
again on this day twelvementh."'

He never heard what the professor of

was too honest fellow to peddle soap
suds at 80 cents 9 half-pint bottle, even
if his dreams Of wealth were all dis
PEELED in q moment. He, of course, felt
pang of disappointment, and resolved
to return home again, after making q
tour Of the city. So he wandered up
and down the streets, looking into shop
windows and mp at the gold-lettered
signs and placards, till shutdown. Then
he entered . bakery. invested a cents
in biscuits, which he speedily devoured,
and inquired for q place where he would
be apt to get . nights lodging. A snap
pish woman behind the counter advised
him to 60 to the Montrose House, across
the way. Proceeding thither, he stalked
into the doorway, az he imagined q mill
ionaire would, aud asked the clerk.
