Chronic Lassitude.

There are certain characteristics
connected with lazy man which are
admirable. They excite in the twang-
ing, juggling breasts of the nervously
fidgety feeling which borders on re-
poet and is akin to awe. Your double
geared tidgety man will spin all day
like top and run down in the cool of
the evening on the identical spot on
which he started off after breakfast.
The man suffering from chronic lassi-
tude will keep still, keep cool, keep in
the shade, put in u full days work
resting himself, and arrive on time at
shutdown, cool, Ca IL, and collected,
without having once sweat under the
collar or laid hair.
The professional lazy man seems to
eat, drink, and sleep with as much
gusto and sang .froid rs his fidgety
brother with the high pressure anatomy
and patent double cylinder, fast, per-
fecting, hygienic apparatus, who gets
hot in the box, and wears and grinds
and cuts his life away like piece of
misft machinery. The fact of the
business is, the man of hustle wears
his life away for the want of the oil of
rest. The lazy man just soaks along
like q handful of cotton waste in the
oil cup OF box car axle.

CRYING Over Split Milk.

Some people can't look misfortune
square in the face and make the best OF
1t. There isn't any best to it, at all, in
their misunderstanding but fatality
and despair. They haven't the philoso-
ply to detect blessings in disguise.
Nothing short 6 palpable, spontane-
Gus manifestation of such thing would
convince them of its possibility. To
suggest to them loss being gain in
any respect, would be merely to set up
a paradox beyond their comprehen-
sion.
The man who, after saving cord of
wood, breaks his saw while starting on
the last log, and sits on the cross-bar
of the buck for half day, tearing his
hair, gnashing his teeth and using de-
moralizing language and working him.
self into fever and preparing foun-
dation for Doctors bill, is the kind of
man that can't see any use in trying to
overcome the trials and difficulties of
life, and is ready TO consider ii an I'M
solvable conundrum and to lie down
and give it up.
When you see man who has lost
his last cent in a venture as brilliant in
promise as it was dismal in results,
coming down the street the next morn
ing with countenance as expressive
of calm serenity as that of a man re-
turning from the burial of his mother
in-law, you can make a mental note OF
it that that man isn't going to the poor
house just yet. If you'll keep your eye
on him for little while, you will see
him, figuratively speaking, splitting on
his hands and taking q fresh grip on
the problem of success in life with a
determination to hold on until he has
solved the problem or dies in the at
tempt. But that kind of man does
not generally die until he has succeed
ed in his undertaking.
1t is no use crying over split milk.
Sitting on rail fence and shedding a
hogshead of tears won't induce COW to

ish il. If you want to make good your

The Form of Introduction a Cowboy De-
mands.

Il shall never forget my first intro
duction to cowboy" said David Van
Drouver, of Cleveland. 1T was in the
heart OF Texas. / had been travelling
all day, and coming up with little
shanty, called tavern, toward even
ing, / determined to stop there for the
night. My horse was put in the barn,
or rather tied TO a stake in the middle
of the prairie, and then l went into the
hotel. There was only one room with
u drygoods box at one end, which served
as bar. 4 was told that might bunk
on buffalo robe which lay in the cor
ner. Being very tired, soon fell asleep,
but in the middle of the night was
awakened by some one kicking me in
the ribs. Get up thar, said gruff
voice. 'What-what's the matterp'
asked somewhat timidly. Il want you
to get up and take drink with me,
and be purity quick about it, too, was
the reply. Through the dim light of
smoky Kerosene lamp / could family
see the figure of man, which, with
one look, L knew to be q cowboy. But
never drink, my friend, said l. Now
look ahere, stranger, no man ever re-
fuses TO drink with me more than once
in his life, he answered, suggestively
touching the butt of one of his revolv-
ers. L concluded that discretion was
the better part of valor in this case,
and so without any more ado l rose
and took drink. When we had fin
ished / offered TO treat also, but he
wouldn't have it. He said he only
wanted to see if thought myself too
good to drink with him. We'll, what
do you think of me?' he asked, putting
his hands upon his hips and staring me
plump in the face. We'll, sir, said /,
Il don't know as l have known you
long enough yet to form an opinion.
Come now, that won't go down. l
want to know what you think of me,
and you might as well answer now or
forever close your clam, and again his
hand fell upon his revolver. AS l had
no shootin' irons with me, they being
under the buffalo robe, L saw that 1
must answer him quickly. We'll, said
/, from all appearances l shouldn't
wonder if | thought just as much of
you as | do of the President of the
United States. Bully for you, take
another swig, and again was obliged
TO swallow the rot, one dose of which
was enough to kill any ordinary man.
After this, that man was one of the
best friends had. - Cleveland Leader.

Holding the Reins.

A good driver always grasps the
reins so that it passes into the hand UNI

fingers, after the hands is closed upon
the reins. being in perpendicular line.
This gives vice-like grip which it is
almost impossible for the leather TO
slip through. But the wrong habit
young drivers, and especially ladies
fall into, is to catch the rein in such a
way that when it enters the hand 1t
first passes over the forefinger; when
held in that way il is very hard to keep
it from slipping, and so it happens that

An Interesting Patent Suit.

An interesting case, involving very ingen,
ious and economical device, has jus. been de-
cided by the courts, the particulars OF which
will bear brief mention. Nelson Lyon, of
Albany, ~ Y, has just recovered judgment
Of $S,l4110, besides costs and interest, against
G.. Il. Fisher d Co., IN the United States Cir
cult Court, at Detroit, Mich, for an infringe
ment of what is known 10 the trade as Lyons
Patent Metallic Heel StiIfener. This continuance
is one Of the most useful OF modern inventions,
and has achieved remarkable sae-over
three-quariers OF n million dollars worth, the
testimony In the present suit showed, having
been disposed of since the latent was granted,
being agrand total OF 273 AIS pounds, or 3, $685..
900 pairs. The invention consists OF u neat
metal plate fastening To the outside Of u boot
or shoe heel, and so arranged as to prevent the
counters from breaking over and the heel from
wearing down unevenly. IL is simple but
very ingenious device, and so desirable on
the score OF comfort and economy that In
fragments were boldly made. At one time the

1880, perpetual injunction was obtained In
December following, and the case was refer
red to master to ascertain the profits made
by defendants and the loss sustained hy Mr.
Lyon. The master reported the sum as 81, 1874,
but on motion the court doubled the same
and directed judgment TO be entered against
