The Girls Moved On.

Two young ladies' were gazing at the
white elephant as it stood enthroned in
all its sacred splendor and surrounded
by the mystic emblems OF its holy
character and the adoring priests who
were kneeling devoutiy on every side.
"How curious il is. remarked one.
that any race Of people should be SO
elnded as to worship an elephant"
'1t is sihdeed. replied the other, sadly.
when look upon this worshipping
throng Of ignorant, superstitious crea-
lures, and realize how elrnest and
sincere they are, cannot but feel that
there should bs no rest until the mis-
ionary message is borne to the last one
these benighted heathens.
True" asserted the first speaker; "it
grand and solemn duty"
just at this juncture the animal
'ked his tail and struck ono of the
iddhist priests in the mouth.
''Howly Mosesy' he exclaimed, inter-
pting his devotions, 'ye hathen haste
and then the young ladies strolled

Tne Hero of the Bull-Rins.


The real name OF Frascuelo, the
hrero, who is soon to exhibit his PROV
as in Paris, is Salvador Sanchez. In a
litter addressed to the Figaro he gives
with pride the precis Of his career in tse
blsod.staiued arena. He says that he
began at seventeen years to fight bulls.
and was In his first battle severely
wounded. He regrets that he was un.
able to participate in the fcte given at
the Hippodrome for the benefit Of the
poorof Paris and the sufferers from
the floods In Murcia in 1879.
At the time he was confined to
his bed by an injury inflicted
by bnll. He declares to be entirely
false the report that he refused to come
to Paris because he would be then for
hidden to kill his bovine enemy in the
ring. Frascueio will be assisted ct the
Hippodromo by Calderon, the best pica-
dor Of Spain. The bulls are mot 70 have
any balls on their horns, but il has been
decided that the horses shall be protect
ed by sort of leathern armor. The
orena Of the Hippodrome is to be made
perfectly circular. so that there will be
no corner in which the bull may take
refuge when driven to bay-Paris Morn

carelessnesa Of Letter Writer'S.

Out Of the 4,44O, S22 pieces Of mail
matter which were sent to the Dead
Letter Office last year, more than a.
600 contained checks, money. ETC., to
the amount OF about 81 ,030, 600. These
'letters. Of course, were those which for
want Of proper address failed TO reach
those for whom they were intended.
But many letters which reach their prop
, CT destination fail Of their effect through
equal carclessness ON the part of their
writers. The publisher OF a Boston
magazine states his experience thus:
"Letters are received requesting
change OF discontinuance, but dated
nowhere, or without signature; copies OF
0ur magazine are RETURNED with nothing
10 show whence they come; envelopes.
directed and stamped, are received with
no letters inside. Occasionally money is
received with nothing 10 indicate where
il comes from, or from whom, and not
infrequently the postoffi % stamp is SO in
distinct that il cannot be read"
Let all then be careful. for these mis-
takes are not all the result Ct ignorance.
but OF carelessness. Remember that the
most important part of business letter
is the address and signature OF the writer.
