Observations.


We grow like that which we worship.
There is as much policy in politeness as
there is in honesty.
He who is too much afraid of being
duped, has lost the power of being magnan-
imOuS.
The state, for revenue, furnishes the
motive power for crime, and then Furnishes
the criminal.
If you wish to destroy your influence,
make the impression that you are chronic
fault-fnder.
The saloon business ruins two million
boys in every generation. One family in
every five must contribute boy to satisfy
the appetite of this ravenous beast. Is your
boy to be taken?
Ninety-four per cent. of all the rum man
ufactured in the U. S. is made within five
miles of the Boston state house; and nearly
all the liquor sent to Africa from this
country is shipped from that port
Society is ever ready to make ostentatious
display OF reclaiming the fallen; is ever
ready to subscribe literally for the benefit
of the outcast, but society will not take
him back after he is reclaimed.

TIE Dearest Book in the World.

The Paris Bulletin de pInprimerie con-
tains the following query, which I think
likely to interest your readers: "What
was the highest price erer given for any
book2 We leave this question to be de-
cided by competent authorities among
book lovers. We may, however, venture
to say that We know of one for which a
sum of $50, ,OC0 francs $50, ,00O was paid
by its present owner, the German Govern.
ment. That book is missal, formerly
given by Pope Leo X. to King Henry
VIII, of England, along with a parchment
comforting on that sovereign the right OF
assuming the title of Defender of the
Faith, borne ever since by English Kings.
Charles II. made present Of the missal
to the ancestor of the famous Duke OF
Hamilton, whose extensive and valuable
library was sold some years ago by
Mcssrs. Sotheby, Wilkinson & Hodge Of
London. The book which secured the
highest offer was Hebrew Bible, in the
possession of the Vatican. In 1912 the
Jews of Venice proposed to Pope Julius
II. to buy the Bible, and to pay for it its
weight in gold. 1t was so heavy that it
required two men to carry it. Indeed, it
weighed 325 pounds, thus representing
the value of half a million of francs,
(S1O0,OO0) Though being much pressed
for money, in order to keep up the Holy
League against King Louis XII, of France,
Julius II. declined to part with the
volume. ."-Lonllon Bookseller.

Black Mike was rescued By the aid OF
boards, rather more dead than alive, and
was speedily consigned to stone cell in
Towanda.
That same evening Dave was escorted
back to Dagon's Cross Roads by an ad-
miring crowd, and in front of Bartlett's
store was received by the squire himself,
who publicly called him hero, and
ended up by presenting him with q
pocket-book that felt as heavy as lead.
AS the squire stepped aside, NIr. Bart
lett came out of his store.
"Dave Hunter" he called out shrilly,
"did you fergit ter ax if there was any
mail fer Abram Bartlett at the postofficc?"
The wild shout of laughter that arose
made the storekccper's eyes flash under
his spectaclcs, and in the confusion Dave
slipped off home. His heroism had re-
ceived due recognition from the squire,
and he is now on a sure road to pros
pcrity.
As for Black Mike, he spent two years
in close confinement for his share in the
adventure. No one ever knew how he
discovered that Dave had the money that
day.
One summer afternoon long afterwards,
Dave visited the old lumber slide, and,
as he looked into the dizzy gulf, he saw
what had caused that last great crash.
Half dozen yards from the bottom was
huge log, stretched directly across the
passage. The snow had backed up above
this, and the fearful momentum had sent
the sled far into the air, landing, strange
to say, fair and square on its runners

The Prince of Monte Carlo.

The Prince of the little principality Of
Monaco, the notorious European gam
bling resort, reigns over his 5000 subjects
from the height of throne, gilded by
the tripot, with the solcmnity of Louis
XIV. at Versailles. His guard Of honol
lis it the correct ternO is composed OF
seventy men; his army, of thirty-six cara
binicrs and eighteen sergents Gle vile.
What people say about the etiquette Of
this court it is difficult to realize. Taci-
turn and blind, the Prince of Monaco is
seldom seen. His son, the hereditary
Prince, spends week every year in the
principality, and gives dinner to the
principal functionaries, the clergy, the
navy, the army, the Judges, the other
principal personages in the principality,
and the lords of roulette and barons Of
trcnte-et-uuarantc. As the hereditary
Prince represents his father, all must re-
main standing during the reception. AL
though without diocese, the principality
possesses a mitrcd abbe-a Bishop in
partibus, who must have at least three
parishes under his jurisdiction before he
can obtain a bishopric, and at Monaco
there are only two. But, as the most
cordial understanding exists between the
church and the tripot, both having the
same clientele, the mitrcd abbe obtained

pious, a third parish, appropriately christ

TIE HARE SHOT BACK.

The Paris Figaro published not long
since an account of practical joke,
which, unlike most practical jokes, has
the merit of being amusing:
An enthusiastic sportsman went to a
breakfast given at the commencement OF
the shooting season. The conversation
naturally was of game. when suddenly in
rushed a servant. eyclaiming to the host
that a hare had been seen moving about
the lawn. Out ran the enthusiastic
sportsman, gun in hand, fired at the hare,
and missed it.
The hare scratched its nose, then stood
on its hindlegs, presented horse pisto
at the sportsman, and fired in return.
No one was hurt, but the sportsman
was naturally astounded to have the
tables turned in this unexpected and sur
prising manner. 1t was explained to
him, and then his laugh was as hearty as
any ones. This remarkable hare was a
performing animal, which had been hired
from a neighboring show. The sports.
mans charge had of course been tampered
with by the confidential servant.
