A Right Good Story.-A great newspaper
reader was out hunting the other day, and storm
coming on he crept into hollow log for shelter
After the storm abated he endeavored to crawl
out, but found that the log had sweled so that it
was impossible to make his exit He endeavored
to compress himself as much as possible, but with
indifferent success. He thought of all the mean
things he had ever done until finally his mind
reverted to the fact that instead of subscribing
for his local paper he was in the habit of borrow
ing it from his neighbor, and thus defrauding the,
printer. On this he felt small that he slipped
out of the log without an effort.

Cheaper TO Pay in Advance.-The Lam

his subscription the other day, remarked that he
found it much cheaper to pay for his paper in ad-
vance than at the end of the year. In answer to
a query, he gave as a reason that when paid in
advance he was always getting something new for
his money, but to do so at the end of the year
like paying for WORKOUT clothes-there were none
of the pleasures of anticipation in the transaction

oflast week says: "Last winter Mr.. Jas. B. Meads,

red bird, which soon became reconciled to cap
tivity and grew to be very tame. One day last
spring the cage door was accidentally left open
and the bird escaped. 1t remained about the
house and daily visited the garden. One day Mr..
Meads placed the empty cage in the garden, when
the bird voluntarily returned to its old home. 1t
seemed to be perfectly happy and contented, sing
ing as freely as if in its native woods 1t was
very fond of locusts, and Mr. Meads fed it upon
them every day.. A short time before the locusts
disappeared the bird ceased its songs, dropped its
head and died. Mr.. Meads and his family had
become greatly attached to their pet, especially
after its voluntary return, and greatly regret its
