Poised on His Collar.

Noticed an approved specimen of a
dude going uptown recently in horse
car, accompanied by very charming
young girl. He held ten-cent piece for
his fare in his carefully gloved hand. As
the conductor approached he seemed to
become nervous, and dropped the coin.
OF course his impulse was to pick it up.
He stopped and put his hand down to the
floor. But his high collar held his neck
like vice, and stOOp as he would he
could not get his eyes lower than the
knees of the people opposite. He CROPPED
with his hand, struggled desperately to
get better view, and grew red in the
face. His companion smiled, a girl oppo-
site giggled and big man on the corner
gave vent to guffaw. The dude straight
ened himself with much dignity, and,
putting trembling hand in his breast
pocket, produced another COIN Fremds

PROvERBIAL PHILOSOPHT.-The great
est Hood has the soonest ebb; the sorest
tempest the most sudden calm; the hot
test love the coldest end; and from the
deepest desire oftentimes ensues the
deadliest hate. A wise man had rather
be envied for providence than pitied for
prodigality. Revenge barketh only ut
the stars, and spite spurns at that she
cannot reach. An envious man waxeth
lean with the fatness of his neighbors.
Envy is the daughter of pride, the au-
thor of murder and revenge. tee begin
ner of secret sedition and the perpetual
torment of virtue. Envy is the filthy
sediment of the soul; a venom, poison
or Onicksilver which consumeth the
nesh. aud drieth up the marrow Of the
bones.

Rats and Ghost Stories.

What tremendous noises rats are ca
pabIe of producing. 1t is much easier
to understand that they should have
given reputation of being haunted to
many house by their unearthly clatter
and stimulation of footsteps, sweeping
of garments and other sounds than how
to divine how so much uprOsr can be
caused by such tiny agents. L believe
it is in a great measure due to their pro-
pensity for seiZing and shaking every
movable point they get hold OF; 1t IS
marvellous, too, what heavy bodies they
will drag sbout-and all, very often,
without any apparent reason beyond
sheer wanton playfulness. Four white
rats, confined in shallow box, the lid
of which WAS rather loose, occssioned
the owner to get up twice in the middle
of the night under the impression that
thieves were breaking into his house,
though he knew the rats were down be-
low, and there is no doubt that great
many well-authenticated ghosts are sus-
ceptible of being laid with phosphor-
paste, or exercised by means of bit OF
cheese.-All the Year ROund.
