There is a story of noble lord who
once gave his fri nd golden snuff box,
IN the cover of which an ass head was
painted. Not much fla tered by this pres
ent, anG wishing to turn the tables on the
author OF Che Joke, the recipient tooll out
the ASS. and inserted instead the I ortrait
of the lora, The next day at DIM er he,

curiosity of those around them. A Indy
asked 10 see it. 1t was passed to her. She
opened It and exclaimed.
Perfect. 1t is a striking likeness In
dee |. it is one of the best portraits of you

The lord was naturally much embar-
rassed the Joke, which he thought was
so hard upon him. While he was reflect
ing upon the inohensiveness of it, the
lady passed he box to her neighbor, who
made similar remarks about it. The
snuti-bo thus went round the table, eoch
one eXpatating upon the sembance
The noo!anan WAS much astonished at
this course of THINGS, and began to grow
not a little indignant; but when it came
TO his turn to look, he had to join in the
laughter, too, and acknowledge that his
friend had got the best of him.

I.is generally supposed that George
W. Peek made a small fortune on his
-Peck's Bad Boz, which had such a sale
q few years ago. But that he did not
get so rich out of it as is supposed is
shown by the following article from his
pen:
The failure of Bedford, Clarke, & Co,
book PUBLISHERS. of Chicago, Is pretty
tough. The firm is composed of two
young hustlers, Alex. Belord and jim
Clarke. and two more honorable and
square young men never lived. They
commenced business in Chicago, and
built up a field for themselves. They were
not endowed with much money. but they
had pluck and credit TIL man couldn't
TEST. They published books and put them
on the market and took chances. About
three out of four books published never
more than pay expenses. When they
were struggling along, about seven years
ago, sort of from hand TO mouth, they
bought a copyright from me of a book
called "Peck's Bad Boy, for little over
a thousand dollars. They had published
one book for me on royalty, and the roy
atty came along in little driblets, and
didn't do me much good so when they
desired to publish the bad Boy, l
wanted them to pay me so much down
and hove 1t over. | thought | was awful
~ smart and when | got the check for
the price, | felt as though | owned a
brewery. They thought l was pretty level
headed, too, because they neSer had any
idea that the book would have an excep-
tionally large sale. Well, they put the
book on the market, and ii sold like beer
at picnic. Within week orders came
for a hundred thousand copies, and the
boys had a hot box. They had all the
presses in Chicago that they could hire
at work night and day, and the demand
did not let up until half million copies
were sold, and the profits of the Bad
Boy" put Bedford, Clarke, & Co on their
feet, and made them happy. They must
have sold million copies of the book.
| During the extraordinary sale of the book
| was often congratulated ON my good
fortune, and it was generally understood
that was making a fortune on the book,
but all | could do was TO squeeze my
thousand dollars in my pants pocket, and
CRATE my teeth and kick myself because
| was such an ass as to sell that copy
right for the book. Bedford, Clarke, *
Co. were sorry for me, and when ! got
ready for another book they kindly al
lowed me 10 retain my interest in the
IoJdlCy, 80 tudI cOulu MAKE fortune.
The next book didn't sell worth a CONT
mental, and SO l was whip-sawed both
ways, but it was no fault of b., c., e
Co. The firm went on swimmingly until
they were cleaned out by fire three years
ago, as clean as hound's tooth, and
since then, by competition, books got so
cheap that there was no money in the
business, and the boys had to lay down
their bundle. When this affair is settled
they can start again, with no dead stock
on hand, and no debts, and they will
soon be at the head of the book publish
ing business, for they can get plenty of
backing.

love in Nebraska.

II was at Spirit lake, at thu very limit
OF the pier. They were all alone. There
was no moon. but the stars were big and
bright, and so full of self con cit that
they looked at themselves in the water
and winked. Far out n boat slid noise
lessly along, says the Omaha Republican.
In nearer boat a fair tenor voice care
lessiy half hummed, half sang q common
love song. From the Orleans Hotel came
now and then twang of the strings OF
the orchestra of mandolins. On such "a
night as this did Dido stand upon the
W Id sea bank and wave her love to come
again to Cartilage. On such a night as
this did Jcssica-but a truce 70 the bardi
1t vas the sort of night on which man
could make love to his own wifel-and
those two, Edouard and Alicia, had not
yet bespoken their tender VOWS.
DO you know anything about the
stars inquired Edouard. in a voice like
the murmur of the wind in summer
trees
A little, said Alicia, tenderly. 4
know some of the constellations-the
Great Bear the
Yes, interrupted Edouard. Il know
all about the big bear, and l can find the
north star; but right over there is q
group. Do you know the name of that?"
And Edouard threw his arm across
Alicia's shoulder and pointed to a cluster
of shining worlds in the east.
Alicia turned toward him. 4 don't
know what that is, she bIeathed, as one
who did not care.
And there is another constellation
Just over our heads"
Edouard passed his arm around her
neck, and, placing b s hand under her
chin. so tlted it that it would be easy for
her to see. And then to Ahcia's eyes the
heavens became one grand carnival of
consultations Shooting stars chased
each other nthwart the armament, comets
played riotous games among the planets
and finally there came soft and radiant
blur that hid them all.
Edouard had kissed Alicia.

Spor.smen know what it is to find
themselves separated from the stream in
which they are IaddHng ny a strip of
hllly ground, just across which is a blt of
water that may lead to almost anything
that is attractive. TO the ordinary canoe
or boat the transit across the land is an
impossbilit3 with the means usually at
hand. This predicament hos been met
by the Manufacture Of cloth, rubber and
canvas boats which may be packed up
into square boxes and SHIPPED by OK
press, carried on the shoulders of mon or
packed on mules back with equal IA
cilty. A boat fourteen feet long may be
packed In the space occupied by an ordin-
airy trunk, and this space includes abso-
lutely everything, for the oars and pad
dies are jointed so that they may be
shortened to one quarter their length,
and every detml Of the little craft is per
feet. The ! oats are neitler cranky nor
sogoy in the wafer, and the result of
brisk competition has been the turning
ont of sort OF craft that Stanley used
to wish for during his first exploration of
Africa.
