THE KING IND HIS DOCTORS.

A good story is told Of King Ernest
OF Hanover. He was seriously ill, and
saw numerous doctors, but he would
not take any medicine. AS any bottle
or powder, was brought. his majesty
said, "Put it in the cupboard" and
again and again it was "Put in the cup
board" Not one drop was touched.
starving patience were the only rene
dies resorted to. At last his majesty
got his good turn, and began to feel
that he could eat again with relish.
and by degrees nature flung off the dis
order, whatever it was, which had run
its course. His majesty was up and
dressed early, and at business. "Get
all those bottles, powders, and pill
boxes out of the cupboard" he said,
and range them in row round the
room. 1t was very small room, and
they almost made circle round the
walls. The doctors came in, smirkine
and smiling and congratulated the
King upon being up again and looking
so we'll. Eyes, DOCTORS" said his
majesty, "thank God it is so. But look
count it up. Don't you think if had
taken all that stuff 1 should have been
dead long ago."

SELFISHNEyS.

Hate selfshness, for it is fountain
of innumerable evils.
Unspalringly denounce selfishness
for it is the implacable enemy of good
Nations decay when selfshness reicns
seltishness renders man powerless for
good to society.
In the proportion that selfishness in.
creases its power over man, in that nro-
portion does he lose the respect Of b;s
fellows. ''
Court not the selfish, for thew SOW
the seeds of disappointment.
Keep seltishness under foot: do not
permit 1t to attain power, for it always
abuses it.
Enormously does he calculate who
thinks ne serves his country best who
serves himself most
hun from seltishness as YOU would
from fire; they both scorch.

MIR. MUNDS AND THE BENT PIN.
The wittiest member of the Senate IS
Mr.. Edmunds. He delights in prac'

travel together in the amusement line
They were both fond of a good story
Why, do you know I once saw Edmunds
bend pin and put it on the chair tha'
Conkling habitually occupied when be
was resting in the clock-room? 1t IS
fact, and the serious part of the stor,
is that Conkling actually did 60 in anu
sit down OH the waiting pin. MIR. ba'
munds isn't nearly SO shy as he appears
to be, for he couldn't control bis feer
ings. He actually rolled on one OF 1ne
sofas and laughed uproariously. Aftet
the first twinge of pain and surprise
Conkling never budged. He toia
stories and kept his gayest humor up
til Edmunds left the room. Then ~
swore savagely. IN. Y. Herald.

Il PERFECTLY MODERN Grrs.

There was once u perfectly modern girl
With perfectly modern ways
Who saw perfection il everything
That happened to meet hcr scze
Such perfectly lovely things she said,
And perfectly awful, too,
That none would have dared to doubt her word
So perfectly, perfectly true.
The weather, she said, in summertime,
Was perfectly awfully warm;
The winter was perfect. too, when thore came
Some perfectly terrible storm.
She went to perfectly horrid school,
In perfectly lorrid town;
And the perfectly hateful teachers there
Did things up perfectly brown.
The Lessons were perfectly fearfully long,
But never perfectly said;
And when she failed, as often she did,
Her face grew perfectly red.
Tho church che attended was perfectly nne,
With a perfectly heavenly spire,
And perfect crowds so there to hear
perfectly charming choir.
The lntest style is perfectly sweet,
Tho last the perfectest out;
Tho books she reads are perfectly good.
Dust here we raise doubt.)
ride she took was perfectly grand,
On Il perfectly gorgeous day;
With perfectly hobby friend of hers
Who happened to pass that way.
The perfectly elegant falls she'd seen
When on the way to the lake.
And the graphic description she gave us all
Was simply modern mistake
The perfectly splendid foam dashed up
In n perfectly killing style,
And the perfectly terrible waves came down
In perfectly lovely pile
might so on with this perfect poem,
And write to tho end of time
But fearing to wear your patience out
VIII bring to an end my ryhmo.

hole in the pockets a very bad thing,
And brings boy trouble faster
Than anything under the sun. I think,
My mother, she calls it disaster.
For all in one day.
I lost, Imay say.
Through a hole not as big as dollar,
number of things.
Including some rings
From chain Fido wore as q collar.
My knife, q steel pen. a nice little note
That my dear Cousin Annie had sent mo,
The boy who found that pinned it on to his hat
And tries all the time to torment me.
I'd lost new dime
That very same time,
But it lodged i'll the heel Of my stocking;
And one thing beside,
Which to you 1 confide,
Though fear you may think it quite shocking.
The doctor hal made some nice little pills
For me to take home to tho baby;
But when reached there, was quite in de-
spur,
They had slipped through my pocket It
may be.
Aunt Sallie, she,
As cool as can be.
Said, u hole in n boys reputation
Is harder to cure,
And worse to endure,
Than all pockets unsound in the nation.
Still a hole in the pockets very bad thing,
And I'm sure real cause Of disaster,
But baby is we'll; you must never tell;
Perhaps he got well ull the faster.
