A Graphic Book Review.

The critic Of the Burlington Hawkeye
thus graphically describes the new cover
of the Century Magazine which he says:
"is an improvement on the old one. The
old one, as near as we could understand,
was a map representing the internal
economy OF the human system in a state
of siege, induced by . sudden attack Of
cholera morbus. The new design is
very unique. In the foreground lady.
who is running petty cash-book by
leaning on il, has an old-fashioned lard
lamp with rag wick, with which she is
evidently looking for the bridge Of her
nose, which is gone. She is out doors,
the aurora borealis CLEANS brightly in
the northern sky, and her throat and
chest are exposed TO the night air in
such reckless manner that, IL Group
has not already marked her for her
own. it is because diphthcria has filed
prior claim. In the corner u thinly-clad
young man. whose shirt has evidently
gone 10 the pawn-shop to look after his
trousers, has been fishing and caught
whole iiye-gallon jar full of trout, but
he is emptying the jar of its linny treas
ures that he may milk the unsuspecting
goat nibbling the bark of a lockwood
tree near BY. 1t isn't the kind ola goat
to milk, too; but the young man will not
find that out until he has begun opera
ti0ns and made the first assessment"

How the Gay Young Man Took In tho
I,ivervman.

They are telling this story about town
for . fact: One day recently young
man while apparently heavy withtanglc-
foot, presented himself to ccrtsin liv-
eryman and asked for team to take
ride. "Nevcr let teams to intoxicated
parties" was tho stiff reply. This blunt
rebuff almost sobercd the young man.
IL also provoked him 10 anger. and he
went of into profane whirlwind in tho
Bombastes Furioso style, ending with
shaking plethoric wnd Of grecnbacks
in the face Of the astonishcd stable.kecp-
er, and Offering to buy tho best single
team in the barns. Hitch up quick.
and I'll pay You now" he said. IAN
right was the reply, and a $500 team
was prepared, the money paid over, and
rs tho man drove away tho generous
liveryman, who was clated over o good
bargain, said to the purchaser. III you
bring the team back all right you can
have the money again" This ended
the first act in the play. Three days
after this, however, there came climax.
For then it happened that the man re-
turned with the team and demanded
that the stable.kccpcr look 1t over care
fully and see If it was all right. He did
so and pronounced everything in perfect
order. "Well, give me my money and
take your team back them" said the
man. The stablcman, who never goes
back on his word, counted out the $500
promptly and returned il, and tho man
started to 60. ''l!old on" shouted the
other, 'you owe me 9l2 for tho use Of
the team" II never pay other people
for using my own team" was the reply
OF the gay young man as hc sauntered
away and ncvcl returned. - Waterbury

Stubborn Integrity.

A dispute from singular cause took
place 81 the Office of banker in the
Chaussce d Amin. Paris. NJ. BENJAMIN
F., the cashier, who has filled that Office
for the Inst twenty-five years, was at his
post, when collecting clerk. named
Pierre Doulley, presented himself with
draft for 10000 francs, drawn by Lon
don banker. The notes were counted
out, and the man left the place. In q
few hours after, Doullcy returned, and,
addressing himself to the cashier, said.
There is little mistake between us;
there is difference Of 1000 francs in
our account"
al never make mistakes" replied the
cashier, Indignantly; "for twenty-five
years my balance has always been cor
rect TO a SOU
but the error" said Doullcy, "is
against yourself, rs you have given ME
1000 francs too much; am as honest
aman as you are; have been employed
as collcctng-clerk for thirty-iive years
in tho same house There is your note.
l will not take it,"
"lnsolent fool" cried the cashier; II
regard any man as an enemy who wishes
TO prove 10 my employer that am cap
able of making mistake. Take tho
note, or l will turn you out Of tho
place"
Pierre Doulley was not to he thus re-
PEELED, and from words the parties came
to blows; but the clerks Of the house
fastened to separate them. The CASH
icr, not wishing to avow an error, which
he would have regarded as stain on
his long-established reputation for cor
rectncss. was fain to put up with the
loss of the note, and Pierre Doulley car
ricd the 1000 franc note to the Mayor Of
the reimbursement. to be distributed
among the poor.

small trays, papcr-knives and other such
light articles, has now suddenl y assumed
a still more important position in the
industrial world. A still more sudden
and striking advance has been made in
the employment Of cotton as building
material. A preparation called celluloid,
in which cotton is the leading ingredient,
has been used lately as n substitute for
ivory in the manufacture of such articles
as billiard balls and paper-cutters, and
now a Canadian manufacturer has in

cotton may be used, not merely for doors
and window-frames, but for the whole
