Trials of an Inventors Wife.

at is all very well to talk about working
for the heather, said one. as the ladies of the
circle put aside their sewing, "but I'd like to
have some one tell me what I'm to do with
my husband"
"whats the matter with him?" asked a
sympathetic old lady.
William is a good man." continued the
first, waving her glasses in an argumentative
way, ''but William will invent. lie goes in
venting around from morning to night, and /
have no peace or comfort. / didn't object
when he invented fire-escape, but I did re-
monstrate when he wanted me to crawl out
the window night last winter to see If it
worked well.-Then he originated lock for
the door that wouldn't open from midnight
until morning, so as to keep the burglars out
The first time he tried il he caught his coat
tail in it and had TO work around him with
pan of hot Goals all night to keep him from
freezing"
"Why didn't he take his coat OFF,
II wanted him to, but he stood around till
the thing opened itself. trying 10 invent some
way of unfastening it. That's Williams
trouble he will invent A little while ago
he got up a cabinet bedstead that would shut
and open without handling. It. went by
clockwork. William got into it and up it
went. Bless your heart he stayed in there
till Saturday evening, when it flew open and
disclosed William with the plans and specif-
cations of a patent waslibowl that would tip
over when it got just so full. The result was
that lost all nv rings and a breasf-pin down
the waste-pipe. Then he got up crutch for
a man, that could also be used as an opera
glass. Whenever the man leaned on it up it
shut. and when he put it to his eyes to find
William, it flew out into crutch and almost
broke the top of his head off,
"Don't any Of his inventions amount to
anything!"
ale says they do. Once they invented
rope-ladder to be worn as a guard chain and
heightened out with a spring. He put it
around his neck, but the spring got loose
and turned it into a ladder and almost
checked him to DEATH Then he invented a
patent boot heel to crack nuts with, but he
smashed bis thumb with it and gave it up.
His coal scuttle has made more
trouble than anything else. 1t was
riveted to the CRATE, and when the fire got
low it would turn over and put on coal. The
| rivets got rusty, so he couldn't get it of,
and just sit up in the bed and listen to that
| scuttle all night. Then he arranged q corn
pepper so it would wiggle ITSELF and now he
can't stop it. You can hear that pepper GO
| ing around in the closet, and he won't let me
throw it away because he wants to invent
something to hold it still. Why he has got
washtub full of inventions. One Of them
is rrayer-book that always opens at the
right place. We tired it one morning at
| church, hut the wheels and springs made such
row that the sexton took William out by
the collar, and told him to leave his fire en-
| gines at home when he came to worship.
! The other day | saw him going up street
with the model of grain elevator sticking
| out Of his pocket, and he is now fixing up an
improved shot tower in our bedroom"

Death from a Dogs Btte-A Moth.
er's Sad Story.

In Philadelphia, three months ago,
Louie Zweiiel, aged five years, was
slightly bitten by q Spitz dog, whilst
ions. The wound seemed but a scratch,
and after proper treatment, healed rap
idly. No particular attention, Il erafore,
was paid to it, aud the child suffered no
inconvenience. His mother, thrifty
German woman, had never even SO
much as heard Of hydrophobia. Three
months passed by and the little fellow
played and ran about as usual, and the
bite and dog were alike forgotten.
What followed is graphically told in the
mothers language. "Last Wednesday"
she said, "Loule did not 60 out as usual

that day. Al O'Clock, while in bed he
screamed in such way as never heard

Pierre set off with eager step and joy

morning air, but when he reached the
forest, being overcome with fatigue, he
sat down to rest awhile. Now, it
chanced that during the hunt the king
lost sight of his companions, and hap

"If you will mount behind me, can

Thereupon, with many thanks, Pi-

"What have you in your basket,
