Comstock and the Young Pub
Usher,

A charming instance of "the bitter
bit" comes in a good story about
wep-known Philadelphia pub
fishing house. This firm had for some
time made a feature of certain novels
of what would now be called the
"ultra-realistic" type, and prospered
exceedingly thereby until one luckless
day the redoubtable Anthony Com
stock turned his attention to this
branch of literature. Mr.. Comstock
called at the store of the firm, looked
over the stock displayed on the
counters, and at last limited to the
youthful scion of the publishing clan
who was attending him, that he
would like to see something a little
more highly favored than the gen
eral run. The young publishers eye
sparkled, and remarking with q
charminglisp which is one of his most
delightful attributes: II know what
you want; you want something real
juithy," unsuspectingly led the pres
ident of the Society tor the Suppress
ion ofVice by devious ways to a room
where anexceedingly choice collection
of the sort ofliterature desired was
shown him. 1t was now the turn of
the virtuous Anthony's eyes to
sparkle, and when he revealed his iden-
tity the feelings of the Junior pub
fisher may be better imagined than
described. Suffice it to say that is it
impossible for any benevolent looking
stranger to safe his thirst for this
class Ofliterature at the Philadelphia
store.-E.W.Bok in the Indianapolis
News.

Let me out, let me out. Help!
Help?' The hall boy rushed down
to the desk, and, with the night
clerk and the porter, hurried back
to the room whence came the cries of
distress. All was quiet. They waited
awhile, then knocked. The subject
of the nightmare came to the door
crestfallen. He explained that he
had eaten o too liberal supply of
deviled crabs during the previous
evening, and he had dreamed that
he was locked in one of the immense
money vaults of the treasury, which
he had seen during his visit to the
city. His own cries for help had
caused him to wake. Such cases
are of almost nightly occurrence in
a large hotel, and are usually great

Pussy Brings Luck to Sailor
men.

If there is anything in the popular
superstition among sailors that "a
cat brings good luck, " the voyage of
the British steamship ITALIA will be
Il pleasant one. A fine large Maltese
cat went aboard the vessel the day
before she sailed and composedly
curled up on the heavily upholstered
crimson sofa in the officers saloon,
and when the vessel sailed she was a
cOntented passenger.
She is an old traveller" said the
steward, as he stroked her soft fur.
land this is not her first voyage
Cats like change and they will visit
first one vessel and then another in
port until they find one that suits
them; and they are a knowing animal,
and seem to have some intuition
When Il vessel is going to sail Do
| think a cat brings luck? Oh, yes.
It's good luck to have a cat come to
YOU. Why, that's not superstition
of sailors alone. Did you ever see a
land lubber that didn't believe it?
That cat will have the best treatment
on board; besides, there's no end to
the rats on board, and the cat will
be useful as we'll as lucky to us"

that Mr.. Q. P. Cole, poor man who resides

thousand dollars in The Louisiana State
Lottery, having purchased ticket No. 9S, 455
which drew one-fortieth of the capital prize
of 5000, 900 in the December drawing. Mr..
Cole is remarkably lucky man, for he seems
to have known just where and when
to invest dollar where it would
do the most good. After learning Of
his good fortune Mr.. Cole sent his
ticket to New Orleans by express, where it
wis cashed in full by the bank and the money
returned to him in remarkably short time,
