An East Indian Paper Knife,

An Indian rajah, who was pleasantly
disposed toward the English, and had
learned their language after fashion,
frequently visited, some years ago $50
the story runs), the viceroy of Calcutta,
and on one occasion borrowed of the
latter copy of the EdiMburgb Reriem,
which he happened to see lying on the
table. When he returned the maya
zine, the viceroy asked him if he found
anything interesting in it. "Oh, yes"
he replied; ''many beautiful things, but
also many disconnected articles"
"How SOP" asked the viceroy. "See
here" answered the rajah; this begins
with Hunting the Ourang Outang,'
does it not? And now turn over the
page, and here you have the History
of Mary Stuart" The viceroy laughed
He perceived that the rajah had at
tempted to read the book without cut
ting the leaves. He accordingly took
from his table beautiful ivory paper
cutter, explaining its use to his visitor,
and made him present of it. The IA
jah was puzzled as to how the leaves of
the book could be printed before they
were cut open, but this was also ex-
planned to him. About year after this
occurrence, the viceroy saw n gay COM
pany entering the court, and in the cen
ire of it the rajah, seated on young
elephant No sooner did he see the
viceroy than he cried: "Do you hap
pen to have an uncut copy of the Edia-
bmyh Recew? If so, please toss it to
me-" The viceroy threw out the mag
azine. 1t was caught by the elephant,
who placed it between his tusks, which
had been wrought into elephant paper
cutters, even including carved handles,
and quickly cut open the leaves, after
which the knowing animal passed the
Reriew back to the surprised viceroy.
The rajah then dismounted, and said
to the viceroy, as he pointed to the ele-
plant: "He is yours; l return you your
paper cutter alive"

mot Very Well"

A feeling Of vague bodily discomfort,
which does not amount to positive illness,
and yet is incompatible with health, IS Of
ten aptly described by the phrase Not
very we'll" This feeling usually arises
from deficiency OF the nervous power
which is required to keep the vital ma
chinery in vigorous and healthful operation.
Nervous weakness has too frequently turned
out to be the prelude of some serious mala.
dy to admit Of any doubt in the matter.
Inactivity of the bodily functions as surely
begets their arrangement as cause precedes
effect.
1t is therefore absolutely essential for the
preservation of health, perhaps of life itself,
that this warning should be promptly heed
ed. The case does not admit of delay.

His Last Coin.

Sheridan's coal merchant, one Robert
Mitchell, had heavy demand against
him for Goals, which he could not get set
tied. One day, having lost all patience,
he attacked the great manager merci-
lessly, and swore he would not leave the
house without the whole Of his money,
which amounted to several hundred
pounds. Sheridan had not so many
shillings in his possession at the time.
'Its very true, my dear Bob, all that
you say" replied Sheridan, I'm really
very sorry, but, | say, Bob, you don't

The Fascinating Young Man.

1t is very easy to put him down. de-
spite his boundless self-possession. A
lady who is annoyed by his too intrusive
attentions has only to cast her eyes
modestly down and fix her gaze intent
ly on his feet. The glance should be
concentrated. yet full of pity, and
should linger slightly as the lady passes
by. Instantly the whole platoon of
mashers is affected by a profound dis
trust. The sympathetic look strikes
terror to their souls. They all cast
down their eyes and look at their own
feet The horrible fear that their shoes
are not in tho latest style takes possess
ion of their bosoms. Each one is smit-
ten with the conviction that his foot is
abnormally spacious; he becomes con-
scious of multitudinous protuding bum
ions and cOrns; his shoes, peradventure.
are muddy or dusty; or something has
gone wrong with the set of his trousers
ut the ankle. The mere possibility of
such a thing destroyes his nerve. The
eye-glass falls from his eye, his arms
lose their kimbo; he feels that his pant
aloons are cupped at the knees and
that his coat is full of mistits and
wrinkles; he suspects the cleanliness of
his stockings. shuddcrs at the thought
that the sole and upper leather of his
shoes have parted company, revealing
that painful fact He even flies to some
secluded spot and makes protracted
investigation before he can satisfy him.
self that all is right. And even then
his nerves do not recover their tone.
He is liable to be again panic-stricken.
A glance of pity mingled with a slight
smile cast at his feet will renew and
aggravate all his paralytic symptoms.

spot. ss E-s

The Shooting Of Robespierre.

Almost all historians of the French
Revolution have represented the famous
wound of Robespierre as self-inficted.
Most of them state that the bullet he
aimed at his own head broke the jaw
bone. and thus made it impossible for
him to speak. M. Thicrs, however.
made lighter of the wound. and in his
account of the scene at the Hotel de
Vile says: 'Robespierre drew pistol
upon himself. but the ball, striking be-
meath the lip, only pierced the cheek
and inflicted severe, though not a dan
gcrous wound.' This version is now
in process of being altogether upset by
an account of the circumstances given
in the pages of La France. The jour
nal reprOduces deposition made by
the gendarme Media or MERIDA, after
ward q colonel in the army and baron
of the empire, and some other papers
which support the story contained in
it. TIE gcndarme says: Il knew tho
elder Robespierre; he was sitting in an
arm-chair-that was in the hall of the
Hotel de Ville-having his elbows on
his knees and his head leaning on his
left hand. I made rush at linn. and
presenting my sword to his heart. said
to him, Yield, traitor!" He raised his
head and answered, ''It is you who are
q traitor, and 1 will have you shot, At
these words took one of my pistols in
my left hand. and. stepping one pace
aside, fired at him. i intended to hit
him in the heart. but the ball struck his
chin and broke his left jaw" This
story is confirmed by an engraver of
the period representing Media in the act
of discharging his pistol. and by the
fact that Media was shortly afterward
presented to the convention and warm
ly complimented by the president upon
having committed this assault.

A Long Earewall.

Within few feet of the catafalaue
Mrs. Garfield paused and bowed her
head as it in prayer. The children and
others advanced to the casket. The
face which. owing to decomposition was
hidden from view through the day, was
disclosed for their benefit But, oh, how
changed! The features. once so manly
and strong, were pinched and worn.
The face was terribly discolored, and
none but the ewes of love could discover
in its lineaments aught that looke,l fa-
miliar- Harry, who was the first to ap-
proach. gazed for q moment at the in
animate form, then bending forward he
gravely imprinted kiss on the wrink-
led brow; then placing his kerchief to
his face walked sadly away. Mis-, Mollie
displayed greater emotion. Throwing
one arm lovingly over the caskei. :,s if
to embrace it, she exclaimed. ..Oh pa
pa, papa" She then kissed the face
repeatedly, her graceful form tremb-
ling with grief, until gently removed by
Mrs. Rockwell. After the others had
paid their last tribute of respect. they
all withdrew and Mrs. Garfield was
alone with tho dead. What thoughts
must have filled her mind rs she stood
beside the bier. Doubtless she recalled
his early struggles 10 attain an efuca-
tion. while battlcing macfully to obtain
the neccssaries of life. their youthful
marriage and happy home life, the birth
OF their children, his llonored career as
a soldier and statesman, and this-this
was the end of all his greatness. Al
the expiration of twenty minutes she
joined her friends in the corridor. Her
veil was again lowered. her step hesitat-
ing and slow. In her hand she bore
some of the flowers that adorned the
bier. She entered the carriage and was
hastily driven away: Those eyes that
beheld her to-day will never see her
again. for Lucrctia Garfield has paid
her last visit to Washington city. Its
very presence is hateful to her by reason
OF the sad tragedy that has robbed her
of a husband devoted and true and tho
nation of one of the grandesl figures in
the history of our day Cor. Phi;adel-

A Raving Maniac.

Last April. says Paris letter, a
newly-married couple took lodgings in
Levalios-Perret, q suburban village.
Husband was employed in q joint-stock
company in Paris, wife not 20. Three
days since, when husband reached his
desk, he found on it an anonymous
letter, brought by the post. which con-
tanned these words: s'Your wife is
false to you." He went home immedi-
ately. showed the cowardly note to his
wife, and, despite her protestations of
fidelity, drew a revolver and threatened
her life. Panic-stricken. she ran out
of the house and disappeared. He soon
became cooler, and went in search of
her. Finding her in none of her usual
haunts, he went to the police station
and told his story. A policeman pres
ent said he had seen Il woman. answer
ing to the description given. leap from
Ci;chy bridge into the river. The hus-
band screamed, and sank senseless on
the floor. When consciousness returned
he was found to be raving maniac.
