Johnny Jones, the Rhymer.

There used to be considerable lum-
Der business done on Merrymeeting
Bay, and there lived noted character
on the shore named, say Johnny Jones.
who was noted for the handy way in
which he could make rhyme. He
used to steal logs from a certain man
who was justice of the peace, and cut
them up into shingles. His arrest was
caused and he was convicted, and bail
was wanted for his appearance at a
higher court, but he couldn't get it, so
he appealed to the justice to 60 his
bail. eff you will make me rhyme,
I WILL said the justice. He agreed
to, but said he must make it from his
boat. So he got into the boat and took
up his paddle.
'.Now, Johnny, for the rhyme y said
the justice, who was afraid he might
deceive him. But Johnny was true to
his promise and gave him this one:
Gas true as am in this boat, and you
are on the shore, I have stole forty
logs from you, and I'll steal forty
MORE" and away he went. They used
to elect Hogreeves at a town meeting,
officers whose business it was to i'm
pound stray hogs; they also acted as
fence viewers. Well, they elected a
fellow named Doughty, whom old
Johnny didn't like. AS soon as they
voted Johnny got up and got off the
following: ut appears very strange to
my weak brains, that men should be
possessed, to pass a vote to choose a
shoat to govern all the rest" A pro-
lessor at Bowdcin, it is said, gave him
suit of clothes for that rhyme.
Johnny picked up a canoe one day
on the bay and put it in his boom. A
man named Hunter, Of Topsham, heard
of the find and declared he was going
down to get the canoe, although it was
not his. Johnny heard of it and was
on the lookout for the enemy's APP
proach. It was on a bright moonlight
night that Hunter started to fulfill his
oath. He unlocked the boom and pro-
ceeded to the canoe and stepped into it.
Just at that moment Johnny stepped
out from some birches that grew by
the shore, gun in hand, and spoke as
follows: IF you get that I'll pawn my
hat I'll stand not to dispute you. I
have got both powder and good shot,
and l swear by CAD III shoot you.
The canoe was not taken.

Etiquette at Home.

The ease and neglige Of home often
induce carelessness as to etiquette, the
impression being that politeness and
polish are only needed in society, and
that carelessness of manner is appro-
pirate to home life. All such views
are erroneous. There is positive COM
fort in politeness, and etiquette is as
important at home as abroad. We dis
tinguish etiquette as the outward ex-
preston of politeness. 1t has to do
with forms and attentions, which are
external. A lady in society is treated
with certain Difference which mani
tests itself in delicate attentions. Chill
dren in society are treated with consid-
crate kindness, which is always consid-
erately expressed. There are rules of
etiquette which relate to the many lit
tie attentions and formulas. These in
society are carefully graded, and often
rigidly enforced. They may be made
onerous, and so oppressive. But eti-
quette is clearly defined.
We do not advocate an etiquette for
the home so rigid as to be burdensome.
Yet it may be the means Of teaching
politeness to children. Those who
have an instructive politeness easily
fall in with the rules of etiquette. But
all have not this instinct. Some are
careless, rude, selfish, inconsiderate.
These need discipline. To give this is
not to lecture on the rules Of good or
der or politeness. 1t must be instilled
more by example than precept. And
where the parents are careful to OBJ
serve the forms of politeness, it's i'm
portance is naturally impressed and it's
rules are speedily learned. Therefore,
all Difference that would be shown in
public society should mark intercourse
at home. And if husband and wife
are courteous, children imbibe and
practice it. Example is the great teach
er in this line.
Beyond this courtesy exerts a very
decided influence on the character.
Trained to the etiquette of politeness
gives balance and evenness to char
acter. Its very inception involves self
control and conscious restraint 1t is
with most second nature. The forms
and rules are acquired and the habits
slowly grated on. Where this is done
so much has been accomplished in the
line of self-control, that it's influence
extends to temper and habits of mind.
Such persons are apt to be self-con-
tanned in all emergencies. A gentle
man will be such under all provoca-
tons and amid all trials or tests.
Hence children thus educated receive
something more than polish. 1t is
something to gracefully escort lady
to dinner, or to maintain an agreeable
conversation, or to show, at all times,
the air of good breeding; but the value
of it all is in the traits of mind that
have been impaired. A clean person
will feel clean, and one accustomed to
politeness will naturally realize the ell
ovation of feeling that attends cour-
tesy. So habits formed at home are
important, and the habit of courtesy
ranks among the first.

Human Beasts of Burden,

At last the problem Of our school
days is solved, says a Mexican letter,
and we have discovered how Cortez &C.
complished the overland transporta-
ton of that historic fleet of ships, built
on the coast and borne over the noun
tains to the lake of Mexico. Nearly all
the labor in this queer country is per-
formed by man-power, few carts or
horses being employed. We met human
beasts of burden carrying wardrobes on
their heads, pianos on their backs, or
huge blocks of building stone with APP
parent ease. Mexican Indians who
transport goods from the interior are
SO trained that they will tire the strong
est horse in equal time and distance,
carrying from 100 to $50 pounds upon
their backs. It is an actual fact that,
after making long trip thus heavily
loaded, they fill their baskets with
stones on their return, their strained
and distorted muscles requiring the &C.
custOmed burden.

He Had Him, Bald-Headed.

They were two solid citizens. One
was bald, but rejoiced in fine luxur-
ant beard. The other had heavy
growth of hair on his head, but was
very bald as to his chin. The bald
headed citizen was very talkative in
dividual, whose conversation was rapid
and incessant. Meeting the bald
headed citizen one day in a company
of gentlemen, he opened fire on him
touching the baroness of his sconce.
''What do you suppose said.he, in his
rafting, vivacious way, '.what do you
suppose, neighbor, is the reason that
you have no hair on your head, and so
much on your chimp" ''Well," said the
other, very deliberately, scientists say
that men who work with their brains
create such a heat in the scalp that the
hair is worn off, s'That sounds like a
likely theory" chimed in the loqua-
cious citizen. ''Yes, it does,'' returned
the other, ''and l think your case is a
striking illustration of its probability.
Now you have plenty OF hair On your
head, but none on your chin, which
just backs up the scientific theory, be-
cause all your work is done with your
iaws-there's nothing doing on top"

at it. ''No," came the answer firmly

the clerk, pretty angry, walked away
to the chief librarian and cried: ''There

How Watch Cases are Made.

In buying silver watch case great care
should be taken to secure one that is solid
silver throughout. The cap Of most cheap
silver cases is made Of composition known
as albata, which is a very poor substitute
for silver, as it turns black in short time.
The backs of such cases are made much
thinner than those of an all silver case,
being robbed in order to make the cap
thicker and get in as much as possible of
the cheap metal. Another important point
in asilver case is the joints or hinges, which
should be made of gold. Those of most
cheap cases are made of silver, which Is
not a suitable metal for that purpose. In
a brief period it warps, bends and spreads
apart, allowing the backs to become loose
upon the case and admitting the dust and
dirt that accumulate in the pocket. The
keystone SilverWatch Cases are only made
with silver caps and gold joints.

1t is known that two people do not

qucntly theydescribe it differently. They
do not hear the same sentiment alike,
and they always repeat it with varia-
tons. or all witnesses the eye Is the
least trustworthy. 1t appears to be the
most subject to delusions, There Is o
reason for this. No two persons have
eyes alike. The two eyes in one head
are seldom alike; if they match in col
or they are different In form, different
IN focus. Not ono eye In 10000, 900 is
in normal, perfect condition. The
focus is either behind the retina or in
front of It, and the eye is either near
sighted or fsr-sighted. What can be
expected of such an imperfect organ In
the way of correct observation.
1t appears to DO still worse with the
ear. 1t is at best crooked organ, and

A Rattlesnake aud o Mouse.

John Maby. who lives on Wawayan-
da mountain, In Sussex county, New
Jersey. stumbled on a couple of large
rattlesnakes while out berrying recent
ly. He killed one and by means of q
forked stick and shoestring succeed
ed in capturing the other alive. As IL
was o female with nine rattles, his
speculative mind at once turned to
Chatham street. where at one of the
shows he expected to exchange the
snake for bank bills of large denomi-
nation. On reaching home he placed
the snake In large honey box with a
glass lid, and the news of the capture
brought the country round to take o
peep at the prisoner.
The snake was very lively and the
least tap on the glass would provoke
her to strike in the direction of the
noise. Presuming that she was hun

ties were gone. and only short thread
projected from the end of the reptiles

Mr.. Maby has come to the conclusion
that the mouse must have mistaken the
rattles for corn during the night aud
lunched off them while the snake was
asleep. At all events the rattles have
never been found, and there are o score
of Mr.. Maby's neignbors who will vouch
for the truth of this remarkable incident
In natural history. Mr.. Maby thinks the
loss Of the rattles has seriously affected
the intrinsic value Of the snake. and
has therefore not tempted the Chatham

A Bear That Bolted.

A man named Ed Wilson was
brought into the Sisters Hospital. on
Tuesday, from camp in the timber
beyond Gloster 70 be treated for injur-
les received by falling from tree in
to which he had been chased by a
wounded bear. The way it occurred
was this: He and another man were
chopping wood in the timber west of
Gloster. While so engaged Wilson
looked up and saw huge bear placid
ly contemplating them from distance
of fifty yards. The bear was sitting
upright, with its EARNS apparently
folded, and seemed much interested in
their manner of cutting and splitting
cordwood as If it might have some no
ton Of going into the business itself.
When deserted the bear was standing
perfectly still. showed no signs of hos
tility. and was simply and only an in
tercsted spectator.
done under the circumstances would
have been to leave the bear alone. So
thought Wilson'S companion. and he
said rs much. But Wilson thought diff
fcrently. He had Winchester rifle
and, noticing that the bear had II white
spot In the center of his breast Just the
right size for nice mark, he said he
believed no would take a shot at it.
The other advised him not to do it and
became suddenly conscious that he was
wanted ut camp. Wilson looked at
the bear again. 1t still sat motionless
and tho white mark on its breast look
ed SO tempting that without more ado
he raised his gun, aimed. and fired.
But instead of hitting the white, which
would have been death shot, the bull
let struck the bear in the shoulder.
The wound did not cripple the animal
much but served to suddenly enkindle
in its breast an eager desire to eat Q
wood-chopper.
Tho next thing Wilson remembers he
and his companion were doing the
great treo-ciimbing act, with the bear
within smelling distance at their heels.
Wilson in his excitement climbed upon
q limb which was too weak to bear his
weight The limb broke and he fell
