Not so Easily Cheated.

A dealer advertised eye-glass-
es, with the aid of which a person
could easily read the finest print.
A we'll dressed man called at the
counter one day, to be fitted to
a pair of s]pectacles. AS he re-
marked that he had never worn
any, some were handed to him
that magnifed very little. He
looked hard through them upon
the book set before him, but he
declared he could make out
nothing. Another pair, of strong
er power, were saddled upon his
nose, but unsuccessfully, as be-
fore. Further trials were made,
until at length the almost dis
Outraged dealer passed to him a
pair which magnifed more than
all the rest in his stock. The
customer, quite as impatient as
the merchant at having to try
so many, put On the last pair
and glowered through them at
the printed page with all his
might.
@Can you read that printing
now 2" inquired the dealer, pref
ty certain that he had hit it RICH
this time, at any rate.
"sure, not a Bit" was the re
ply.
"Can you read at all 2" aske'
the merchant, unable to concea
his vexation any longer.
Grade at all, is it ?" cried tn
customer ; "there's not a >singl

The Fathers of the Presidents

Some one has been collecting
facts about the fathers of the
United States Presidents, with
this result Grover Cleveland is
the only c%lergyman's son who
has ever been elected President,
though Arthur's father was a
clergyman. He was not, how
ever, elected President. The
fathers of the Virginia Presi-
dents - Washington, Jefferson,
Madison and Monroe = were
planters. John Tyler's father
was a lawyer and q statesman.
and John Adams, the father OF
John Quincy Adams, was BY
profession q lawyer. Grants
father was a tanner. Hayes
father was a merchant, and the
fathers of Garfield, Pierce, Lin
coin, Fillmore, Polk, Van Burer
and Jackson were farmers.

NpENATIoN OF PAUp

CREMATION OF PAUPERs AND
CRIMINALs.-Medical and sani-
tary experts in New York City
favor the adoption of cremation
as a means of disposing of those
who now are buried on the is
lands in the East River. The
Commissioners of Charities and
Corrections are even now con-
sidering the question of their
right to cremsste the unclaimed
dead. The cremation of exalted
criminals is also suggested, and
the opinion Of a good many who
have expressed themselves on
the subject is, that if a criminal
were executed by electricity and
then cremated, much of the false
sentimentality which now is en-
gendered by a public execution
and funeral would be done away
with. However, many object
to cremation on religious
grounds. The Cremation Society
in Saxony very recently offered
a petition to the government to
encourage and authorize the
adoption Of cremation. But the
court preacher and other proml,
nent ecclesiastics, Protestant
and Catholic, opposed the meas
ure, maintaining that cremation
was contrary to the Christian
faith, besides lacking of hygienle
value; and the petition was re.
iected. Yet the arguments
against inhumation are equally
strong. Itseems a little strange
that those who believe in tht
actual resurrection of martyrs
burned at the stake, should con

On Sunday evening last the
dead body of a man was discover
ed floating in the bayou Courta'

It was brought to the bank and

Orleans. An inquest was held
and a verdict rendered that the
deceased came to his death by
drowning. The remains were in
tered on the bayou bank near
where found.
The body was not identified,
but it is surmised to be that Of one
of the crew Of the steamer War

day evening last for New Orleans,
and who unobserved fell from the
boat into the water, on her way
down the bayou.
Since the above was in type,

has been received by Capt. G.. Car

The Consequences"

They were playing an insi-
dious game, invented by the de-
vii or some of his followers, call
ed Consequences" Presuming
that our readers know how the
thing is done, we shall only de-
tail what happened.
Joe Smith and Missouri Brown
had been sweethearts for some
time, though she never would
say yes when he asked her to
marry him. In fact she 1irted
with some of the other fellows
in a manner highly demoralizing
to Joe. He, poor fellow, had
stood it for some time, and had
come to the conclusion to bring
things to a focus, so to speak,
and had spoken to his friend,
Tom Brown, a cousin of Mis-
souri's on the subject. The re-
suit was that on this particular
evening Tom proposed the fiend-
ish game above alluded to.
The slips of paper were pre-
pared, passed around, written
On, opened and read. The first
one was something after this
order:
"Joe Smith and Lizzie Simp-
son met in a cosnfield-they
were playing tie piano-he said,
MY darling, l love you'-she
said, "I'm hungry'-The conse-
quences were that they fell into
the gutter-And the people said,
1T were better to laugh than to
be sigqling."
This was deemed such a sue
cess that the paper was passed
round again. But wicked Tom
Brown, with an eye to Joe's case,
"fxed things" and when the
paper was ready to be read he
slyly substituted one he had
prepared before hand. 1t was
based on a scene that occurred
between Joe and Missouri only
a few nights before, and I'M
known to any but herself and
her lover and she wasn't afraid
he'd give it away.
Here is what the substituted
paper contained
"Joseph Smith and Missouri
Brown-met IL the back parlor.
They embraced. He said, MY
darling, I must kiss YOU She
said, ooh, Joe, you mustn't but
he did. The consequences were
that he kissed her about forty
times and she didn't squeal-
And the people all said, why
on earth don't those two fools
get married 2"
Missouri blushed and the
crowd howled. In the midst 81
the uproar the young lady rush
ed out Of the room and Joe after
her. She was going right home,
she said Indignantly and she did,
and Joe with her. And although
she onl,1 lived some four squares
away, il took them from nine
o'clock to half past ten O'Clock
to walk it. 1t is observed that
Missouri doesn't firt any more.
and that Joe has begun to wear
a plug hat, from which one may
be led to infer that the ''conse'
qnences" of that nights work
will be all right. - Chicago
