A Schoolboy's Appeal.

Tommy was at boarding school
and it had been decided that, fol
various reasons, it would be better
for him to spend Thanksgiving
with a neighboring aunt, instead Of
taking the longer journey home.
This conclusion was announced to
him, with as much gentlenesss as
possible, and in few days his father
received the following note:

She Couldn't Pass The Salt.

Perhaps you can imagine the sensa-
ton created By the following incident,
which occurred at very select and for
NAL dinner party on Beacon street one
day last week, says Boston letter to
the Albany argus:
One of the guests on this festive oc-
casion was young lady from Balti-
more. whose attractiveness--for the
men at any ratc-is not diminished by
a tendency to be mildly giddy. On
either side of her at the table were
seated two nice young men who We'd
with one another in their efforts to en-
gage her attention. With both of them
she seemed. equally pleased. bestowing
her smiles this way and that with
charming impartiality. Having been
introduced to the pair but FIVE minutes
before sitting down, she had cast 8
spell upon them before the fifth oyster
on her plate was swallowed; when the
soup-plates were removed they had al
ready abandoned themselves to her
destinations, and, by the time tho roast
was on the table. each was hopelessly
enraptured. When the fowl was
brought it chanced that, while the
butler and assistant were ont of the
room for moment, the hostess, who
sat close by at the head of the table,
wanted some salt.

girl. Twill you hand me that little Gel

The young woman spoken to looked
up responsively. but made no motion
to comply with the request. Suppos-
ing that she had not understood. Mrs.
K. said again: ''Will you not give me
the salt, Il you please"
BY this time the attention OF every
one present had been called in that
direction. The young lady from tho
monumental city, however, was not
perturbed. II am very sorry. Mrs.
K" she said. ''but how can do what
you ask?" and with this she lifted her
hands suddenly from beneath the
table, holding in her left the hand Of
tho young gentleman on that side and
in her right the hand Of his rival.

4 HORSES MEMORY.
How a Bright-Ginded Equine Restored
Himself to His Owner.

Many years ago, Abram Dodge
of Ipswich, Mass. owned a beauti
full horse which was the pet Of tn
family. He was admired by all wht
knew his playfulness and goot
qualifications. In the summer i
was Mr.. Dodge's habit occasionally
to have u frolic with his horse in
his barnyard, then let him alone ane
he would go to the river, which was
one-third Of a mile distant, where
he would bathe, then go to q com
mon and roll on the grass, ther
start for home; his stable was rem
ovated for him while he was gone
and his breakfast put in his crib.
If he met his master he would
show some coltish pranks, run fo1
the stable, pull out the wooden pin
that fastened the door with his
teeth, and rush to his manger to
find his food. One night the horse
was stolen from the stable. After
the expiration of sixteen years Mr..
Dodge was at the tavern, when a
man drove a horse up to the door.
Mr.. Dodge at once recognized his
horse and told the driver his reason
for believing it to be his. The man
told his story of whom he bought
the horse, and that he had owned
him for several years. 1t was final
ly agreed that if the horse would,
on being taken to his own stable,
60 through the habit of bathing,
running through the grass and pull
ing the pin from the stable door, as
above described, Mr.. Dodge should
have him.
When the horse was let out into
his old yard he viewed the premises
fer a moment, then started for his
old bathtub, then for his green towel
on the common, then to his old sta
BILE, pulled the wooden pin and won
for himself good meal and his old
master his favorite horse. These
facts are vouched for by reliable
residents of the beautiful, pictur-
esque old town. and show conclus-
lively the long memory of our no.

Francisco, seeing for the first time
in all those years town Of more

His face is SCARED from arrow
wounds received in Indian fights,
and if he lifts his long white hair
from the side of his head he shows

Why Amber Is Expensive.

why is it that amber is so ex.
pensive?' asked a reporter of a Mas
sau street pipemaker recently.
Because it is not very plentiful,
and then the trouble of collecting
1T is very great. The only place
where it is found to any great ex-
tent is in the Baltic Sea. There the
vein runs from Russia to Denmark,
Norway and Sweden. In the olden
times it used to be picked up on
the shores of the Baltic. where it
was washed after a heavy storm. A
number Of persons used to make
their livelihood by collecting the
amber, and they do now for all I
know. The demand for it during
the past few years has grown so
much that engineering appliances
are used to collect it. Dredging
boats are sent out in fine weather.
These boats have long strings of
iron pals that are constantly drag
ging the bottom of the sea and turn
ing their contents On to the decks
of the boats. There the amber is
quickly picked out and the rest
thrown overheard. Another method
of collecting amber is by the diver.
The divers 60 down with the regu-
lar divers costume, and by means
of the air-pump are enabled to re-
main under the water for four or
five hours. All the amber these
men collect they place in bag,
and on coming to land they are re-
warded according to their find.
This vein of amber has been found
to run under the land as we'll as
under the sea, and a mine has now
been sunk to a depth of $50 feet
below the sea level and is worked
just like coal mine. IN. Y. Mail.

Business is Business.

Railroad President-Did you get
the injured passengers in the acci-
dent satisfied so they won't sue for
damages?
Under Secretary-Yes, sir. The
worst injured were drummers, who
are used to that sort of thing, and
50 worth of cigars fixed them all
right. The only other one was a
man who had his nose broken.
"Eh? What did you do with
him?"
"As the accident changed his
pug nose to very handsome Ro-
man, charged him 500 for the
operation. So, you see, we are $97
ahead"
