Once, upon q great festival, the
town council Of Lagos went to the
parish church to hear mass. And all
the members of the council were
dressed i'm seemly state in black coats
and tight black trousers and flowing
cloaks, and each wore wide brimmed
hat of black felt, over which feather
CALAMITY curled. For their comfort a
leather covered bench was placed be-
fore the chancel rail. And when they
came to sit, each man, in the order OF
his dignity, sat down upon the bench
and placed beside him his hat. But
when six of the twelve councillors
were seated the bench was full. Then
whispered conference was held, and
it was decided that the bench must
be stretched. So six of them took hold
of one end and the other six took hold
of the other end, and they pulled
hard. Then they came TO sit again.
And now the first councillor put his
hat beneath the bench, and the second
did likewise, and so did they all. And
they all in comfort sat down-by
which they knew that they had suffi-
GENTLY stretched the bench,
Being thus seated the first councillor
crossed his right leg over his left leg,
and SO did the second councillor, and
so did they all. But when came the
time in the mass when all must rise
not ono of the councillors could tell
certainly which two of the twenty
four legs were his, for all were clad
in tight black trousers and all were
crossed. And each man looked at the
many legs among which were his
own, and sOrrowfully wondered if he
ever should know his own legs among
so many and SO be able to rise and
walk. And while they thus pondered
it fell out that the first councillor was
bitten by q flea fiercely in his rearward
parts. And the first councillor slapped
at the flea, and that he might slap the
better uncrossed his legs Then the
second councillor knew which were his
legs, and so did the third, and so did
they all. And SO they all uncrossed
their legs, and with great thankful
ness arose.-Scribner's Magazine.

They tell a good story on Senator James

came to Albany to see Governor Tilden
soon after the latter's Inauguration. AZ
ter a brief chat the governor, who was
easily bored, asked: when are you go
ing back7"
"This afternoon, 1 think" said James.
Better stay over till tomorrow" re
turned the governor in a confidential
murmur. Thinking something was in
the air James remained over. Next day
he again invaded the executive chamber,
and the same formula was gone over,
with the exception that the governors
tone was slightly more confidential.
James pulled at his glossy, iron gray
mustache for awhile and again remained
over, only to have the same disappoint-
ment. How long the affair would have
lasted is ~conjectural had not a kind

tor that that was merely a way the gov.

Attic boy once nsloeda visitor whose
bright eyes attracted his admiration,
Are your eyes now ones3" and the
childish question was rs high u com
pliment as that of tho Irish laborcr
who requested the Duchess of Devon
shire to let him light his Pipe by her
eyes. Some rarely beautiful orbs are
so wondrously clear, scintillating light
like gems, that such questions arc not
difficult to understand.
What color in eyes is best entitled
to the claim of beauty has never been
definitely settled, as some people pre-
fer ono color and some another; but
while really beautiful eyes are beauti-
full in any color, brown and blue, es-
pecially tho so called violet" are per
haps the most popular. Various &c
cessorics go 10 make the beauty of an
eye, such IS n large, well fringed lid,
white, but with n suggestion of tint
like the palest sea shell, long, thick
lashcs shadowing-th cheek, and well
defined arched eyebrows. So impor-
tant are these adjuncts that they will
give beauty TO eyes that are in them
selves quito commonplace. The po-
sition of the eyes has much to do with
the impression they produce, as, if too
near together or o. far apart, there is
a lack of symmetry about the whole

Steam Engine Against Devil FI,b.

A few days ago, at the end of the
Naples wharf, a forty foot pile of
about one foot diameter was loosely
tied with 100 feet Of cable. The hands
suddenly noticed the cable running
from the coil, and before n one
could secure it, both pile and cable went
running rapidly to sea. A devil fish
had got entangled in the cable. Boats
were at once secured and started in
pursuit, and after a two mile race they
captured the line and log, the mon
ster having become loosened, which
fact accounts for them being able to
overtake it. When we consider that
this species of ray attainsa weight of
5000 to 5000 pounds, and strength 10

In a family residing in South End

shall be obliged to punish you" A

should eat. He regarded her sullenly
for a moment, and then blurted out:

Then he explained himself by saying:
"Of course, l don't love any of you

Comedian and Philosopher.

Some years ago students of the Co
lumbia Law school, New York, no.
ticed that every Saturday morning a
stranger occupied a place in the hall
devoted to the literary course. He
was a fine appearing gentleman Of
40 years, apparently, who listened to
the lectures on literature with great
attention and took voluminous notes.
Week after week and month after
month this quiet but evidently we'll
trained gentleman was seen in his ac-
customed place. His presence excited
nc little attention, and his identity no
little conjecture. His mobile and
smooth shaven face looked strangely
familiar to the students, but they
couldn't place" it.
Suddenly on, n day, a boisterous
young man who had attended the the
atre the night before startled everybody
in his neighborhood by exclaiming in
an audible whisper:
by Georgel I'll tell you who that
quiet fellow is"
And he did. 1t was Francis Wilson,
the comedian of the Casino company,
who was improving his shining hours
in a way that would have done credit
to a philosopher. And yet we see no
reason why q comedian should not be
considered q very jovial philosopher.

The strawberry grows underneath the nettle,
And wholesome berries thrive and ripcn best
Neighbor'd by fruit of baser quality.
The same poet, in a passage which
he has verified from of our old
historians, has preserved a fact by
which it Is proved that this fruit has
been cultivated in London at least
ever since the reign Of Richard III,
