I'm Sleepy.

A gentleman of high social and business
standing In New York, was making trip
on one of the Sound steamers last fall,
when he was approached by quietly
dressed and soft-spoken young man, who
made a few general remarks and then
asked:
Are you open for business to-nightf 2
Yes; I'm always ready for business,
was the reply.
Thought SO. Your clothes are all right,
and you talk political economy like an
orator, but your face gives you dead away.
| spotted you as soon as We left New
York
The gentleman was dumbfounded, and
while in this condition the other queried:
Shall it be an even whack upP
IT,
Il think we are certain to strike sugar
in this crowd
My friend, l fear l am ignorant of
what you are driving at. What business
is it you wish to talk over2'
Come, don't try any of that on me.
I'm willing tomake far divide
of what There's my card, sir; and l
should like to see yours
The stranger took the card, looked it
over, gave the merchant a close inspection,
and then answered:
We'll, rm beaten for the first time in
ten year Are you going back on this llnea
Yes
Then YOU should have some one along
who can swear to your identity, and you'd
better hand your card to every man who
comes within six feet of your nose! Good

1t was two or three days before the gen.
tleman could make out what 1t all meant

In less than miuute Miss Trafton emer-

In few moments Miss Lawson explain
ed the situation to her, and then asked.
Now, Alice, who was that man you
met that night y
would gladly have kept the truth
from you, dear aunt, said the young girl,
her voice trembling with emotion; but as
you know so much nov, it is better should
tell you all. When, at the death CT my
mother, you rescued me from poverty and
misery, and gave me home In your house,
| did not tell you that had brother who
had gone astray- who was even then an
inmate of the state prison. You were so
good yourself, and your ideas On such mat
tiers were 50 strict, that l thought it best to
keep this secret. But have from time
to time secretly communicated with my
brother, and last week, upon his release
from prison, had an interview with him, at
which he told me, to my horror, that an
other warrant was out for his arrest on a
charge of which he swore was innocent.
He begged OF me to raise him some money
so that he could leave the country, and be-
gin life anew in a foreign land. had
saved nearly three hundred dollars from
your generous allowance, dear aunt aunt,
and this l promised to give to him on the
night that your money disappeared. He
was the man that met on the corner of
Eighteenth street and Broadway. He is
now far away from New York. Now you
know my secret. Can you forgive mel'
For answer, the Old lady clasped Alice

Throwing the Hatchet.

In the fourteenth century the situation
OF pubic eXecutioner to the city of Flor
ence became vacant, and as it was place
of considerable emolument there were
three candidates. A day was appointed
for public display of their several abilities.
The first candidate, with knife, cleverly
separated the head of the victim from the
shoulders. He was outdone by the rapid
stroke of the second, whose glitterlng
broadsword struck terror into the hearts
of the surrounding multitude. The third
and least promising held In his hand a
short hatchet, and when the victim was
extended with his head on the fatal block,
approached him, and in a low whis-
per inquired If he could swim well.
On being answered in the affirma-
tive, he desired him to spring on his feet
and cross the river. TIE executioner then
put on a fierce look, swung his weapon
round his head. but, instead Of making it
descend on the devoted creatures neck,
struck 1t with great force into the block!
Shouts of execration rose from the crowd,
and the trembling wretch, astonished al
his wonderful escape, had nearly gained
the opposite bank OF the river before any
steps were taken to pursue him. He had
scarcely, however, gone ten yards on dry
land, when the executioner, taking steady
aim, threw his hatchet with such effect
that the body continued running some
tune after the head was of! From thu
rather improbable incident the common
phrase of throwing the Ratchet is said tG
be >riyed.

when it was. We told him it was mis-

1t should have been James. We appeased
Mr. jones disappointment by giving him
the paper free for one year, but would say
this is the only case IN which we shall de-
viate from our rule of two dollars year in

''He needn't have spoken of his charity
so prominently" commented Jones, after
reading the paragraph.
Certainly he shouldn't" replied Mrs.
Jones. "But then we can't help it now.
Well, I'll send that butter of Mrs. Stingy's

"You can take it yourself if you want
person to be so very fine"
'Never mind; we won't quarrel about
it.
Jones, after he found out the reason of
all his excessive kindness, went TO Graball
and offered up the check which had been
gwen him. But Graball saw that he had
been caught by his own cupldity, and
thought the best way to get out of it with
grace to himself was to make present of
the money to Jones. But jones wouldn't
listen to that; SO it was settled that the
money was to be loaned, and jones was to
take his own time to pay it. After paying
the butcher and grocer, he had neat sum
left which served for all present necessi-
ties; and soon after business picked up
and Jones obtained a permanent situation
He and his wife often laugh over the
time when he was rich for day.
