Worth Reading.

A good story comes from Quitman,
Ga. The other day negro came in
town and got drunk and commenced
to enliven the streets by whooping and
prancing around with ham uuGler his
arm. A policeman attempted to arrest
him, when the negro resisted and hit
the officer with the ham. This enraged
the officer, who lifted his club and hit
the negro on the head, and the next
instant popping sound was heard and
the negro's wool became all ablaze and
burned fiercely. Such an unusual
sight frightened the policeman. and
thinking he had struck an electric man
he took to his heels, and the negro
imagining that the policeman had voo-
dooed him with some kind of magic
fire stick, also became frantic with
fear and darted off in the opposite di-
rection bowling like mad man and
clutching wildly at his blazing wool.
The citizens of the town were startled
at this strange occurrence, and it was
not until the negro's wool was con-
sumed and he had stopped running
that the cause of the conflagration was
discovered. 1t appears that the negro,
as is common with his race, was in the
habit of carrying matches in his hair,
and the blow from the policeman's
club ignited parlor matclr and started
fra, which frightened the dntiful Of
ficer out of his wits and will render q
bibulous cOlored citizen as bald as
stove lid for the remainder of his life.

A Gentleman's Solicitations.

A gentleman walking with a lady
in the street raises his hat to those
persons whom she salutes in passing,
though they may be strangers to him.
When escorting lady across .
drawing-room gentleman bows, but
does not speak to those whom his COM
panion salutes.
A gentleman raises his hat to lady
whom he meets in a hall or corridor,
provided it is not il public thorough
fare; but he does so without allowing
his gaze to rest upon her.
When driving, a mans hands may
be too much occupied to permit Of
touching the hat; in that case cor
dial bow will satisfy the most exacting
acquaintance, as the reason is obvious.
When in tho saddle gentleman may
lift his hat or touch the brim with his
whip, as he prefers.-Erchanqe.

Novel Reading In Japan.

Novels and story books in Japan are
common. The people are diligent read
ers and circulating libraries are found
in every town and city. Men 20 round
with piles of novels on their backs.
Stopping at the houses of customers.
they leave new parts of series or
fresh books and collect the old ones.
Thus y reader will week by week re.
ceive now pamphlet fresh from the
printers, and to finish one book~will be
obliged to peruse fifty or sixty INSTALL
ments. Nearly ali of the common
stories are illustrated. A reader Of
Japanese novels soon learns to tell the
characters by their faces and garb, for
these faces are full of expression and
faithfully portrayed. Yet to make re-
cognitiOn certain, the artist usually
marks each character by giving his
name or the first syllable or initial of
it. This is put in Il small circle on his
sleeve. No matter how many persons
are described by writer, the reader
easily recognizes the hero, the villain
and the people Of lesser note.

Mr.. and Mrs. Woodruff, who had been en-

tokens of their estimation in the shape of
beautiful easy chair, and the greater
