SenAibloGirlS.

The Rev. Mr.. Walker was in sarcas-
tic mood at the Baptist ministers
meeting the other day. With cyni-
cal expression curling round his lips,
he said: II have heard girls tease their
mothers for hats and pianos, but
never heard one cry for broom and
dustpan."
No; and he never heard one tease for
the toothache, either. Girls are sensi-
bic enough to know that the two most
disagreeable things on the planet are a
broom and dustpan. When man is
seated in his easy chair looking over
his newspaper sight of these two i'm
plements of household warfare makes
him sneeze IN anticipation of what is
coming. He is rooted out of the sit
ting room, then out of the parlor, and.
last of all, out of the house.
One can look at specter at mid
night with more equanimity than at a
woman with broom in one hand, a
dustpan in the other, and an expires
sion of face which shows plainly that a
whole legion of ''cleaning house.
demons have taken possession of her.
Why should young girls cry for such
things?

Thought Hlmsclfa Plagiarist.

Voiture having composed a sonnet,
was so satisfied with it that he deemed
tworthy of being presented to Nine.
de Rambouillet, who prompted by the
spirit of mischief, caused it to be sewcd
among the contents of volume of
poems published several years previ-
ous]y: and, this done, laid the book in
conspicuous place on her table, Vol
ture, coming into the room shortly at
ter, took 1t up, and discovering to his
amazement the sonnet already in print
ima5 ined himself to be guilty of plagi-
arism, and repeated his verses several
times over with bewildered air, feel
ing sure that he must have read them
somewhere and unthinkingly appropri-
ated them as his own.
''Word for word the same-not a
single difference groaned the discon-
ISOLATE poet, matchmaking his too re-
tentivc memory, and meditating what
apology he should make to the mar
quise for his involuntary presumption.
When at length informed by Nine. de
Rambouillet and her sister precieuseS of
the trick that had been played him, his
delight at finding his claim 20 the au-
thorship of the sonnet uncontested was
so great that, far from resenting the
joke, he enjoyed it even more than
they did.

A Strong Word from Labouchere.

Yes, my estimable friends, we shall
abolish hereditary legislators: we shall
disestablish the Church, and lay hands
upon the national funds which are now
in its hands. We shall sweep away
the game laws; we shall replace nomi-
mated magistrates by elected boards;
we shall have progressive income tax
and progressive succession duty; we
shall enfranchise leaseholds in towns,
and we shall legislate against large
estates out of towns; we shall have no
more grants to royalty, and noblemcn
will no longer have huge salaries for
condescending to be court flunkeys.
Democracy will be in the ascendant
not the masquerading nonsense which
is called Tory Democracy, and of which
we see the outcome in a Cabinet con-
tanning twelve peers and sons of peers,
but the real, genuine, unauthorized
article.

WeStmOnt and LOrono.

The most interesting item of news
recently was is the sudden purchase of
the PAGERS, Wcstmont and Lorenc, from
Mr.. j. NJ. Hill, the opera manager of
Chicago. Mr.. Frank Siddals, the soap
manufacturer, of Philadelphia, was a
warm admirer of this pair of side-whecl-
ers, and had made vain efforts in the
past to buy them, but Mr.. Hill would
not put price on them, and it was
stated that he had refused an offer of
$4,000. Last Saturday afternoon Mr..
Siddals, with friend or two, was in
the restaurant of Nash l. Crook, under
the office of the Turf, Field and Farm,
when Mr.. Hill entered, also in COM
pany. The two gentlemen passed the
compliments of the day. and then the
Philadelphia, whose mind at once re-
verified to the coveted team remarked
that he had always found Mr.. Hill 4
thorough business man, except in one
respect.
"And what is that" asked the opera
manager.
because you would never put a
price on that team of pacers,' replied
the soap manufacturer.
"But would put price on them,''
rejoined Mr.. Hill.
Il will wager the wine for the party
you will not,' said Mr.. Siddalls.
"You will lose the wine. My price is
$50,00O," remarked Mr.. Hill, fully be-
lieving that figure to be prohibitory,
but in a second the Philadelphia had
his check-book out, in half a minute a
blank was filed for $4,000, and in
less time than it would take Wcstmont
to 90 mile with running mate, the
transfer was substantially completed
and being celebrated in sparkling bump
ers of Pommery Sec. Mr.. Siddalls will
at once order his new acquisitions to
Philadelphia. Westmont is by Almont,
dam Annie. by Cottrill Morgan, and
has pacing record of 2:13 Ia, and a
record with running mate of POI 81.
Lorene is by Col. West, dam by Joe
Dowaing, and her pacing record is 2:15
Ia. Mr.. Siddalls has a magnificent
team, but he has paid magnificent
price. -1Wrf, Field and Farm.

Cigaret-Making.
A smart. quick girl can make about
$500 cigarets per day. The pay is
from 20 to 80 cents per 1000, according
to the grade of cigaret made. There
are very few girls who can make more
than 1900 per day. When girl goes
to her work in the morning she receives
a small bundle Of papers and two and
three-fourths pounds of tobacco, from
which she must make 1000 cigarets.

square miles in area was covered with
dead fish of variety strange and I'M
known to the witnesses, but which
proved to be the fish of the commission.
Vessels afterward arrived in different
ports, all telling the same story of
floating fish carcasses and the immense
desolation which from some cause and
in some way, had visited the ocean
depth. But, stranger than all, no
trace or sign of the tile fish has since
been found by the original discoveries,
nor have the most careful and long,
continued researches resulted in bring
ing specimen to the surface since the
time when, it would seem, universal
sentence was executed upon them and
they were blotted out of existence.

ruANKsGIVING O, THANKS
GIVING!

November's sun again hath shone
Ger forest field and mountain,
Again the chilling winds have blown
On summers limpid fountain.
The birds have sung their chorus,
And vanished hath the summer ray
And winters creeping DER US.
Plenty hath crowned the farmers toll,
His crib is overlooking,
His riches rise from out the soil,
When summers heat is glowing.
And autumn with her yellow leaf,
Reveals her promised treasure,
Aud Ceres with her golden sheaf,
Fills high the flowing measure.
The tyrant Death that comes to all,
Hath passed, and we are living,
Such mercies now for praises call,
And we will shout Thanksgiving
Away with dull and busy care,
Away with all repining,
The sun OF peace, so bright and fair,
Is mildly on us shining.
Now happy faces smile around,
And hearts with joy are bounding,
While social cheer and love abound,
And music's notes are sounding
And heartfelt thanks, and grateful praise,
Each tuneful tongue is singing.
And mem'ry over other days,
Her backward way is winging.
We think of friends with whom we met,
When halcyon days were flowing,
And briny tears our faces wet,
Affection still is glowing
We see them in their living bloom,
Tho now in death they're sleeping,
And moaning winds across the tomb,
In dirge like strains are sweeping.
And cherished friends now far away,
In memory still are living,
While tender words of them we say,
And kindest love we're giving,
The ancient group we loved so we'll,
Is widely rift and broken,
But we their names and virtues tell,
And prize each parting token.
Thus while with thanks our hearts run o err,
Life's changes are before US,
And while our joyous notes we pour,
A somber shade creeps DER us,
But still goes on our social cheer,
We will not yield to sadness,
With mind at rest and conscience clear,
Well quaff the cup of gladness.
Ho! then fc~ loved Thanksgiving day:
Come friends from fern and heather,
Ere we from earth shall pass away
Wen joyous meet together.
Our offerings mere we all will bring,
For lost friends and the living,
And still for us, for all, We'll sing,
Thanksgiving, O, Thanksgiving!

The Crop of Centenarians.

The crop of centenarians is growing
larger every year. There are too many
authentic cases to admit of any doubt.
The average of human life grows long
er as the world grows older, and with
care and prudence it is possible for
many to prolong their existence beyond
the century period. According to the
best authority there are now thirty GEN.
tenarians in this country. Probably
this does not include all, but in some
instances it is very difficult to get at
the facts. Old negroes, for instance,
are very deceptive. No record was
kept of their birth, and it is impossible
to tell from ones appearance whether
he is 80 or 1870.

The accident was disposed of in three

A long illness was followed by a
weary convalescence. Sewing was out

encouragement, rent falling behind,
