who polishes floors with a brush
strappedon one foot, while he balances
himself with broom and makes long
strides sideways. The exercise is so
violent that he is frequently obliged
TO stop for rest. There are host of

custom is universal, and one must re

AN AMUSING INCIDENT
occurred the other day on one Of the
principal boulevards. An old man,
with long gray hair and peculiar
clothes, sat astride wine barrel. He
called aloud that he was "Bacchus,"
and urged the crowd, who quickly
gathered around him, to buy wine at II
penny glass. Soon man rushed up
and Knocked 'Bacchus" off the barrel,
claiming to be the owner of the stolen
wine. 1t was then discovered that the
barrel contained the finest Burgundy,
which the old man had stealthily
rolled from the door Of the wine mer-
chants shop. When arrested he
claimed ohave taken the liquor in the
cause of socialism, so that the poor
could get q glass of good wine at a cheap
rate. Notwithstanding the reason
given by the philanthropist he was
carried to the station.

which serves to prove that Bouilly rep
resented him correctly on canvas,
when he painted his blue eyes and
chestnut hair, totally different from
the idea given of him by the pen OF
Carlyle. The lock was inclosed in q
medallion with the martyrs palm, and
belonged to the sister of the Terrorist,
who died in garret in 1884. Since
then it has passed through several
hands, finally reaching its last resting
| place, b.
