A Yankee Trick.

Four creditors started from Boston
in the same train of cars, for the pur-
pose of attaching the property of a GER
tain debtor at Pennington, in the State
of Maine. He owed each one separately,
and they were each suspicious of the
object of the other, but dared not say a
word aboutit. So they rode on, became
acuuaintances and all talking on every
thisg except that which they had most
at heart When they arrived at the de-
pot at Pennington, which was three
miles from where the debtor did bust.
ness, they found nothing to "put them
over the road" bnt a solitary cab, to-
wal DIS which they all rushed. Three
got in and refused admittance to the
fourth, and the cab started.
The fourth ran after and got the
outside with the driver. He asked the
driver if he wanted to sell his horse.
He replied that he did not want to
that it was not worth more than $50,
but he would not sell'him for that. He
asked him if he would take S100for him.

quickly paid over the money, took the
reins and backed the cab up to the bank

it up so that the door could not be
opened. and jumped the horses back
and rode of lick atty switch" while
the insiders were looking out of the

rode to lawyers Office to get a writ
made and served, and his debt secure,
and got back to the hotel as the insid-

cab man soon bought back his
horse for $50. The sold" men offered
to pay the sum, if the fortupate one,
who found property sufficient to pay
his own debt, would not tell of it in

A Vast Population.

According to recent census of India,
its population numbers 100000 Of
souls; about five times as many as the
United States. There is raised by
taxation in that country 1854 ,OOO, 900.
The surplus over expenditure is $4,000
coo. This vast empire is under the
control of the British Government.
One of the difficulties in its future is
the rapid increase of its population.
Every few years short crop brings on
famine in some one of the districts.
Nautilus argued that population always
outruns the means of feeding it, and
he claimed that war, pestilence and
famine were necessary to reduce the
number of mouths, so that all who sur
vived could be fed. The English do
minatiou in India has put stop to
wars. Famincs are partially provided
against, and sanitary provisionhas been
made against pestiIence. 1t follows
that population is increasing with great
rapidity, and the probability is that
some year when the crops will fail, Ii
terally myriads of human beings will
perish of hunger. - DemorestS

"Oh. no; we sell at one price, and all

Raising Hair by the Crop.

Thousands of girls i'm Switzerland
Germany and Norway devote them
selves to the cultivation of their hair
as resolutely as farmer does his crop.
Once a year the merchant, very often
an old woman, arrives at the village,
and brisk trade is carried on. The
Swiss girls makes the most, as nature
has bestowed on them an abundant
crop of blonde color, which is the
hardest of all to obtain, and the climate
is evidently propitiods to its growth.
The price obtained depends upon the
length of the redundant tresses. Hair
eight inches long is worth twenty-five
cents an ounce, while that thirty-six in
ches in length will bring the fortunate
possessor eight dollars an ounce, and
in cases of exceptional beauty and
thickness even thirty-five dollars an
ounce may be realized.

ers kissing their children and husbands
their wives, are quite as foolish, but
were really enforced. These and others,
which we have given, are very laugha.
