of teeth which stood out like ten penny nails
that anything happened. Then the eater
suddenly raised one ley, his eyes bulged out,

asked the lady.
"oh, yes, thank YOU mincepie in my
country" he replied
"Of what do they make them there ?" ask

A gentleman of his rank need not have
blushed to say, II do not know" but he
felt bound to keep up the honor of Japan, so
far as it rested on mince pie. Again tasting
the pie slowly, and with the air of a critic,
his face frightened up as he said: "In Japan

"If he does not come Immediately when sent
for he takes things too easy if he sends in
his bill, "he is in terrible hurry for his

it is to run up bill if he don't, it is unjusti-
able negligence. If he orders the same medi-
cine, it does no good; ifhe changes the pre-
scription, he is in league with the druggist.
If he uses any of the popular medicines of the
day, it is to cater to the whims and prejudice
of the people to fill his pockets; if he don't
use them, it is from professional sefishness-
Ifhe is in the habit of having frequent consul

objects to having them, OH the ground that

LIVED IN HER SHOE.
BY CATHARINE s. lloyd.

There The was an old woman who lived il her shoe

@ wonderful talel can it really be true,
Ihat tnere once was woman who lived in Q

If her children were many, they must have been
small,
OF wee, fairy size, like the tiniest doll.
Could it be, do you think, that the shoe had been
By some giant of old, in some Granny or cleft?
Or might suggest a slight error in sense,
Yet give Mother Goose no cause for offense?

sage,
When mistakes may be found on the best printed
page;
And with few chances. letter or two,
The story is sadder, but then 1t is true.
IT'S of one who was busy, too busy to rest,
whose SIX little darlings quite filled the home
With so many to feed. no time could she lose,
And so this poor woman just lived in her shoes
don't mean to say that she slept not wink
Or never sat down to eat or to drink
But ner work was so constant, the phrase that
May be reckoned figure of Speech If you choose.
Was she old? Why, not very: if she had been
And had worn fine gown. with the usual hitch,
You would hardly have thought of her age; for
the pace
OF time is much hindered by ribbons and lace.
Though her years were not many, yet trouble and
care
will furrow the brow and whten the hair;
And think you will say, when my story is told,
1T Is not any wonder that she was called DID,
With the wolf at the door, were there none who
could save?
Was the hand that might shield her laid cold in
the grave?
Be that as it may, were she widow or wife,
She was fighting alone the stern battle of life.
A brave soldier, indeed for she wrought with her
might,
Though the task of each day was from morning
till night:
Yet she was but one of the thousands who tread
In the same busy circle, and toll for their bread.

And have nothing to do but to do as you please,

who are in too much of hurry to be care
full is the following:
A few weeks ago gentleman entered the
office of well-known insurance agent, and
tossing paper on the counter, said to the
clerk
That's run out, and l want to get it re-

The clerk unfolded the document, and with
a smile inquired:
"Areyou sure that this is run out? ?"
ooh, yes" said the gentlemen my wife

thought to be somewhat improved, and
Dr. Bartholow, his physician, thinks
that, with week more of rest and IT.
cuperation, he will be able to return
and take part again in the canvass, al
though he may not be as active rs he
was before.
His law partner, Edgar NJ. johnson,
is also al the st. George Hotel, and on
pressed himself last night to the effect
that Judge Hoadly's political affairs
are in good hands and will regain what
ever prestige his absence may have lost
by the encouragement and stimulus o.
his return.
