Concerning Cats,

The cat has ever been regarded rs a
mysterious creature, and has OF II con-
sequence been Stunned. as amateur
swimmers avoid deep holes, by the
youth Of our land in their literary cf-
forts. The dog and the horse are

byS" as subjects for compositions. but
it is noteworthy that the cat, though
even nor" familiar to all than either Of
the aforementioned animals, is neglect
ed in nll Friday afternoon literature.
The kitten is much beloved by reason
Of its frivolous and gay nature. Its
propensity to amusc itself with any
light object or. in dcfalt of other
movcablcs. its own ilccting tail cndcars
it TO all young persons. but there is an
unnatural gravity and air of absorption
i'll deep philosophical matter about the
mature cat which is forbidden, not to
say awc-inspiring. 1t may be that its
uncanny nature has caused it to be
associated with witches. Certain.

all hours Of the night gives
color to the suspicion that it is Il
balcful beast. A cat acts Us if it knew

Padre Agostino,s Rom ance.

Padre Agostino, of Montctrelto
whose marvellous preaching is the
talk of Italy, has had, says n London
correspondent, II most romantic
career. "Wllcn he was quite young
he fell in love with IL lady of noble
birth, who wns also very rich, whom
he could not marry because he was
not equally well born. This love
made his life continual torment,
and in IL moment of youthful cnthu-
siasm hejoined the army ofGaribaldi,
fought bravely, and was seriously
wounded. In consequence of his
good conduct and valorlle was raised
to the rank of captain, and returned
to again seek the girl he loved. In
the meantime he parents wished the
lady to marry Il noble from Piedmont,
and she, rather than beungrateful to
tgostino. took poison, and was
found dead in her wedding attire.
Some say she died of n broken heart.
The young soldier was in despair
when he heard the awful news, and
full Of hatred and sorrow, he fled to
Turin and fought IL duel with his
rival. The rival died. Afterwards
Agostino's remOrse was so intense
that lie took no more interest in lite,
turned religious, and begun to
preach. His success has been phe-
nomenal. lie writes his sermons
and learns them. like tho Bishop of
Ripon, so that when lie il preaching
they appear ilnprovised at the last
moment. He made his mark in the
pulpit late in life, forhe il now about
sixty years Old"

Conscience and Kreutzers

Maria Theresa, of Austria, was
greatly addicted to gambling, and play
ed for exceedingly high stakes. The
court function,rics did all i'll their pow
to overcome this passion, but to no
purpose. They finally appealed to the
Emprcss's confcssor. who induced the
imperial gamcstcr not to give up cards,
bu, TO play for only copper kreutzer
u point. The cunning Empress. how
ever, ordered her jewelcr to make her
100 kreutzers in II peculiar manner SO
that each one could be opened in the
middle and Il ducat inserted. The two
pieces were put together so that only
the initiated knew that they were not
what they seemed. Thus the Empress
kept the letter Of the confcssor's de-
mand and at the same time enjoyed the
excitement in which she delighted.
