A corpulent old German who has been
doing q thriving business in a little towr
suddenly refused to pay bis debts. The
goods have paid him frequent visits in
fruitless attempts to collect the money
due to their firms. The other day a
long-legged representative of a London
house,walked into the establishment pre-
sided over by the erratic merchant and
! presented q statement amounting to
f65.
"Ich got no money" said the Ger
man, as he balanced himself on q
cheese-box.

the presumptious collector, slamming
his bag down on a barrel "No monkey
business about this thing! This is the
fifth time I have come here for that bill,
and now I propose to have It."
"Vell, .mein %frent," replied the
merchant, a little Disconnected, "Ich
don't know how you viii git

The traveller drew himself up to his
full height, and, assuming the air Of q
prize-fighter, leaned over the counter
and whispered at the top of his voice:
'Sayi do you know that / killed a

The Irrepressible Boy.

It is easy to point out that parents
are to blame when boys are wrong. In
a measure, perhaps, they are. But there
is that about some boys, children of
splendid and careful parents, which
seems to make them wholly in%tractable.
There is a period when a boy of fine
traits will break loose, and all the care
Of all his family only serves to mako
him worse. Then there is a period,
further on, when he is the most %intoler-
able little devil it is possible to conceive.
He knows it all. Father and mother
are slow and ignorant. and the young
man finds it impossible to conceal his
contempt for their lack of '.go." This
is the period of breeziness, when a
father feels sorely tempted to club the
young rascal into his proper place. 1t
requires wonderful finesse sometimes to
carry a boy safely through these critical
periods-an immense amount of for
bearance, an affection Of sympathy, and
even an appearance of belief, some-
times, in the boys assumption of great
ness. The remarkable thing is that so
few boys are wrecked during these
periods of savage lawlessness and bud-
ding manhood. -MllWaukee Sentinel.

The True Nature Of a "Cold."

Years of study and observation have
forced me to the conclusion that the
disease which manifests the symptoms
popuarly supposed to indicate that a
cold has been caught is to all intents and
purposes q flh-disedse, arises largely
from Indigestion, and forms the basis,
so to say, or is in fact the first stage of
all the so-called tilth-diseases. What
ever interferes with digestion or depur-
alton, or d%epraves the vital organism in
any manner, produces an impure con
dition of the body-a condition of dis
disease; and a continuance of disease
producing habits must inevitably result
in periodical or occasional "eruptions,"
the severity Of which will depend upon
the degree of ones transgresslon.
Among the causes Of this impure bodily
condition are impure food, excess in
diet, and impure air. Our homes,
offices, shops, halls, concert-houses,
churches, and, with rare exceptions, all
living-rooms, private or public, are in
sufficiently or not at all ventilated; and,
except while in the open air, a very
large proportion of our people, in all
the walks of life, habitually breathe an
atmosphere vitiated by being breathed
over and over again; they are starving
for want of oxygen, and are being poi
soned by carbon.c acid. In default OF
sufficient oxygen the best of food can
not be transformed into pure blood
there will always be q corresponding
indigestion; nor can the carbonic acid
be eliminated freely in an impure at
mosphere. We have, then, serious Gin
references with digestion and depura-
t;on," whenever we remain even for a
single hour of the twenty-four in an
'.in-door' atmosphere, j. e., an atmos-
phere that is not in tolerably free COM
m%unication with the great body of air
without. The only offset for restriction
in oxygen is restriction in diet and ex-
ercise; but a combination of this char
acter would produce enfeeblement Of
the system, though if a proper balance
were maintained there would arise no
febrile symptoms such as we are on
sidering. We have plenty of people
living in unventilated rooms who, so
far as erercise is concerned, live a we'll
balanced life; but seldom do these, any
more than the robust and active, prac-
tice any sort of voluntary restriction as
to quality or quantity of food-nausea
and lack Of appetite being the only safe
guards. Persons of this class are great
sufferers from colds.-From "Catchtng
Cold," Jy DIR. G. E. Page, IN Popular
Science Monthly.

A Western bee keeper says that in
the very coolest weather ,pure white
sugar is better for bees than their own
honey, for the reason that it produces
more heat. Glucose sugars are very
bad for bees, and should never be used.
The sugar has also the advantage OF
honey in not being mixed with pollen,
which, it is believed, causes the dysen-
terry that is often so fatal in winter.

THE POLICY OF THE GOVERNMENT.

DEBATE on THE MOTION OF CENsURE-GENERAL
GORDON's PROCLAMATION.
LONDON. Feb. 1S.-The debate on Sir Stafford
Northcotes motion censuring the Government for
their policy III Egypt, was resumed in the House of
Commons to-day. Sir John Lubbock, Liberal men,
ber for London University, spoke in opposition to
the amendment introduced last Thursday by Sir
Wilfrid Lawson Radical, which provided that the
House decline to express an opinion of the Govern-
ment's Egyptian policy.
Mr. Gladstone, in replying TO an inquiry by Sir
Stafford Northcote regarding General GOrdOns
action at Khartoum said that the appointment Of
the Mahdi Sultan of Kordofan and the remission of
taxes were within General Gordons powers. The
true meaning of the order regarding the revival of
slavery could be understood from the telegrapc
summary which had been published. The Govern
ment preferred to await the receipt Of the full text
of the original ORDER No telegram had been re-
ceived confirming the rumored disbandng of the
Egyptian army.
In reply to question by the Marquis of Sails
bury Earl Granville, Foreign Secretary .Of State,
stated that General GOrdon's proclamation allow
ing the restoration of the slave trade in the Soudan
was not exactly the same as it had been published
by the newspapers General Gordon would make
no arrangement which would operate III the inter-
est of the slave trade.

The Irish Parliamentary party held a meeting this
evening for the purpose of deciding how to vote in

policy Mr.. Parnell was absent. There was some
disagreement in regard to the course to be pursued
by the party. Mr.. sexton made motion to vote
against the Government, which was carried. The
minority will abstain from voting The detection
of the Irish vote has increased the discomfort and
disruption in the Liberal party, and will, it is est
