Sewing With Hair.

It often happens that there is a small,
oleanly cut place in a bolt of goods. 1t
may not be known until after q garment
has been cut out. But when it is discov-
cred the tailor cannot afford to throw the
piece away. He simply calls on his wife
for several strands of hair, hands them to
the best skilled workmen in the shop, and
bids him mend the rent. He uses a very
fine needle, and does his work so per-
fectly that 1t Is never known that the
cloth was cut. | once knew a tailor who
got in peck of trouble from having cut
the button holes on the wrong side of a
costly coat. He finally overcsme the diff
Guilty by mending them with his wife's
hair. Once upon q time l cut out and
had made a fine cloth coat, which was
discovered before being sent home to
have defect in it which could not be
remedied without sticking in a piece of
cloth the size of a ten-Cent silver piece.
After puzzling over il for half day, 1
secJsred a sharp turbular steel instrument,
used IN cuttlng gun-wadS. With this |
cut out the defect in the cloth. fitted

e. saw an exhibition of what You might
call nerve the other day up in Delaware
County, said Deacon Charles n Bean Of
the public stores. @" was up there on
business last week, near Harpersheld, and
an acquaintance took r1e out to fish
for pickerel through the ice. On our way
to the pond we mot a couple of men chop
ping in the woods. My friend knew one
of the men, and stopped to talk to him
The other man kept chopping He had
made but two or three strokes with his
axe when it flew of the handle. The sharp
blade whizzed through the air, passed close
to my friends bead, and, striking the
other chopper, whose name was Hagar,
cut his nose off close to his face as clean
as if it had been done with a razor. The
man who had lost it put his hand up to
his face in a startled sort Of way. and
looked down at the severed nose as if ne
could hardly believe his eyes. When the
full force of the situation struck him he
looked at his fellow-chopper with an ex-
preston Of surprise and deep injury on
his face, and said:
"' Well, Jack, you're d nice fellow,
amt ye2
Hagar then stopped and picked up his
nose and pressing his handkerchief TO his
bleeding face, astOunded both nv friend
and myself by resuming the subject upon
which they had been talking-which was
the making Of a contract for some chop
ping-as if nothing Of consequence had
occurred to interrupt it. My friend how
ever, started the other chap to the village
after a doctor, and wanted to take HaRar
home at once on his blackboard Hagar
wouldn't hear to this and be said he would
cut across to his cabin through the woods
and wait for the doctor, and he started off
without any apparent hurry, carrying
his nose in his hand.
when we returned at night we went
out Of our way two miles to Inquire after
Hagar. We found him chopping up fire
wood in front of the cabin. There was a
bandage around his face When we asked
II the doctor had seen him he said:
GO Yes, he's been here. He stuck the
nose on in its old place and bound it there,
and said he believed it would grow fast

But She Was Able to Hold Her

The late Thurlow Weed once told me an

when he was living in CooPeTstown, y.

and was setting type as a journeyman

fell in love with Catherine Ostrander.

properly. to her marrying a strolling
printer, without money OF anything else,
and agreed TO wait.
About this time I got into a bad
scrape. /. with three other young fellows,

at a prayer meeting l had never seen
them before, but We walked home with
them, and they made acharge of improper
conduct against us all The others got

pared to 90 to Jail. At the examination l

Some fifteen years after that. when I

She Showed Herself Possessed of Re-
markabIe Reasoning Powers.
We had adjoining our house a yegeta-
bic garden much infested with moles,
that did great deal of mischief TO the
garden produce and could not be got rid
of. One morning, while the family were
at breakfast, the cat, beautiful tortoise
shell tabby, brought into the room a
dead mole in her mouth and laid II down
by the table. Her appearance as q mole
catcher was hailed with delight, and she
was rewarded with fine piece OF fi5h of
the breakfast table.
The mole was carried out and thrown
little distance from the house. On the
following morning, while the family were
again at breakfast, the same scene was
enacted. and excessive praise was awarded
TO the cat, which il was hoped w5S IN
fair way of ridding the garden OF the
pests. The same thing was repeated on
the third and fourth mornings, and tabby
on each occasion being suitably rewarded
On the fifth morning, when she made her
appearance as usual the family were
taken by the nose, a most offensive
smell arising from the mole just brought
in On examination, il was discovered
that the mole was in a state Of deCOmpOSl-
tion, and further investigation disclosed
the fact that tabby had been palming the
original and only mole as a fresh one
every morning, and thus fraudulently OBJ
tanning the tOOthsome reward 50 freely
given for her supposed clever mole-catch-
ing propensities.
