 It must be confessed that the difficult ties of doing good, square business in a good, thorough, square style are becom. ing greater and harder than ever to com- bat.

He will find that it is the rule for men to do much for policy and very little for principle; that it is a matter of difficulty to be his plain, honest self: but it seems as if he mus. go on the Ex- change or into the business world with a set of actions, pretenses, and even ex- pression that does not belong to him, but is assumed for that particular purpose. and all too often the assumption gradu- ally absorbs other and better qualities of mind and heart and becomes his real character.

Governor Cleveland Mascot.
1 Rochester Union.1

The special correspondent of the Buff falo Con,Isr has discovered a mascot which he describes as follows: During the trial of the great grape sugar suit of John L. Alberger and Horace Williams against Cicero J. Hamlin and others, which under change of venre came be- fore the courts of Genesee county in De cember,' I88o Piesident-elect Cleveland spent ten days in Batavia as one of the attorneys for the plaintiff. MT. Cleveland stopped at a local hotel and during his stay was given a seat at one of the dining room tables which he retained at every meal. One of the dining-room girls took particular pains to see that he was served promptly and we'll, and whenever MT. Cleveland's name has been brosfak be-. tore the public as a candidafE She has been enthusiastic in his support In Oc- tober, 1882, when the adjourned judicial district convention was held here, the Hon. L. L. Lewis, of Buffalo, one of the candidates for the nomination, made the hotel his headquarters during the dead lock that ensued, and occupied the same seat af the same table that Governor Cleveland had retained, and was waited upon by the same girl. The result of the convention was Judge Lewis nomination and subsequent election. During the re- cent republican congressional conven- tion here Landlord Collins, of the St. James, was telling Judge Sawyer, of Or leans, whose name was presented for nomination, of the good fortune of the gentlemen who had occupied the sea. re- ferred to in his dining-room, and though Judge Sawyer's chances of receiving the honor did not seem to be great, he was given the chair at the table that had seated the other gentlemen. The days of the convention wore away without any percepdhle disagreement in Sawyer's chances, until the s57th ballot, when the long and acrimonious contest was brought to a close by the selection of Judge Sawyer, and he has been elected py round majority. This dining-room girl, considering the good luck that has attended the aspirants to office who have occupied the seat at her table. lays claims to being a mascot. Good fortune has surely attended the three gentlemen whose names arc mentioned.

He Meant to BE Kind.


There were three of EN- in the depot
a young man and two ladies-and
the train was two hours late. The
young man looked out of the window
steadily for ten minutes. The same
time was occupied by one of the wo-
men in searching her reticule for a
Glove, and the other in wondering il
there was any water in the cooler in
the corner. The young man suddenly
started and grabbed his valise. Both
women thought he had heard the train
and each suddenly sprang up. But he
hurriedly opened his valise and took
from it n novel. 1t was by Dumas and
was entitled: "The History of a Crime
Part Sixth. Dividing the book in
half, he cut it through with his knife,
and advancing to the ladies he handed
n portion to each with the remark:
''Allow me. You will find it very
interesting"
He then walked out and sat down on
the edge of the platform with feeling
that he had made two souls perfectly
happy. 1t was Only rs the train
whistled that he suddenly jumped up
and gasped out: Land sakesl but it
has just occurred to me that neither of
you may have read the first five parts. "

Hoses and Apples.

'Some years ago among the best

Levi j. North. | think he is living in
retirement in New York State now.
He was breaking q cream-colored stall
lion in the ring one morning while l
was standing outside chewing straw
and talking to some of the boys. The
beast was handsome and quick enough,
but it was rs vicious as q hyena, and
that morning something had disturbed
it in the stable, so that when it danced
into the ring its little black eyes gilt
tered like a snakes. | expected trou-

the rest of us contented ourselves with

say something to one OF the boys when

and there was North whirling around
that stations head as boy whirls q
basket The beast had caught him by
one wrist with his teeth, and after q
couple of whirls it sent him crashing
through the ropes on the other side Of
the ring His wrist was broken and
he is crippled to this day. No, | thank
you; no vicious stallion for me.
''Now, in teaching an animal to pick
up handkerchief, for instance, let me
show you how the apple works. That
act is pretty well along in the Sixth
Reader, say; but my beginner here
will do it for this once.
The trainer broke q small russell APP
pie in two pieces, and wrapped one of
the pieces in his handkerchief. This
he placed to the horses nose long
enough for it to get the scent of the APP
pie, and then, walking to the other
side of the ring, he placed the apple
and handkerchief together in the saw
dust there. The alert animal watched
him like n CT +, and no sooner was the
handkerchief on the ground than he
trotted to it, picked it up and shook it
until the apple became disengaged from
its folds.
"Horses arc taught TO fire a pistol in
precisely the same way. An apple is
fastened to the end of line attached
to pistols trigger, The animal tugs
at the line to pet the apple, and fires
the charge. In the course of time the
apple is discontinued, but Juggling at
the line has become second nature with
the horse, and he pulls it as matter
