Types OF Tircsomc People.

Do you keep n liSt-a list of the peo-
pie who are tiresome to you? We
used to call them bores, but as this is
always suggestive of getting there
eventually, the name has been dropped,
though the people exist.
The wise woman is the one who has
a book on the cover of which is written
in large letters and red ink, Beware
of
The educated young woman who
concludes that the alphabet has been
invented since her birth.
The frivolous creature who thinks
you are Just dying to know how her
underwear is made.
The lovely young man who wears
three diamond rings and thinks you
are lust too sweet for anything"
The horrible old hypocrite who talks
about her position in society and the
use she is to the world at large, when
she would best serve it by decorating
the inside of a tomb.
The old man who kisses You because
he remembers your mother when she
was girl.
The young man who is loud and I'M
derbrcd, but who speaks to you and
mortifes you and claims right of ac-
quaintance because he once lived near
you.
The maid servant who wants to talk
about the last house in which she
lived.
The man, woman, or nondescript,
who never tires of telling you that
they have seen better days, and who
counts on that announcement covering
everything in the future, aud never
making an effort to think how really
good this time is after all.
The man with low-cut shirt, the
woman with dyed hair, the boy who
hasn't been taught good manners, and
the girl who has been educated to be-
lieve that impudence and intelligence
are synonymous.
The people who flatter, who find
faul. and who never know what it is to
say good word for their neighbors.

The Earth Growing Larger.

The earth, travelling in its orbit
around the sun and onward with the
solar system around some unknown
and still greater center of attraction
is constantly traversing new regions of
space, which it depletes of meteoric
dust and meteorites, thus steadiIy-no
matter how slowly-increasing in
diameter. Now let this growth con-
tinue till the earth has just twice the
attractive power which it now possess
cs, we should then have twice the num-
Der of mctcoritcs and double the
quantity of dust falling annually upon
it.
Fortunately for our heads the earth
has not yet attained very formidable
dimensions, but we may look upon it as
an established fact that it constantly
gains in weight, and that in proper
ton to such gain its attractive power
steadily increases.
The attractive force of the sun is so
enormous that perpetual hail of
meteorites and torrent of dust par
ticlcs must rush upon it from all di-
rections, and some of the foremost OBJ
servers are now of opinion that these
falling bodies are the sole cause of the
suns heat.
In the light Of this theory our earth
is u young and growing, not an old
and dying planet; a planet with a
future, which ought to be cheerful news
to all of us, although we shall not live
to reap the benefit Of it, and the sun,
far from being on its last legs as an
expiring luminary, is steadily gaining
in heat and lighting capacity-Ameri-

EuCccss in Work.

Sir Andrew Clark, one of the most
successful and distinguished of Eng
lish physicians, has recently had por
trait of himself presented by the staff
of the London Hospital. In his speech
replying to the presentation address
Sir Andrew gave some account of his
life and of the causes of his professional
success. His story deserves pcrusal.
Sir Andrew was born in Scotland, and
went to London thirty-six years ago, a
young man in delicate health, and
without a single friend or influential
connection. He had, however, a small
patrimony, and was enabled to pursue
the study of pathology, and to keep
himself quite free from any intrigues
or quarrelS. He devoted himself to
work. and before many years, despite
i'll health and opposition, he was made
physician to London Hospital. His
subsequent success was slow but con-
tinuous and was achieved without any
definite expectation ut first that it
would eventually be so brilliant. Sir
Andrew gave the following as some of
the conditions necessary for success in
medicine:
Firstly he said, II believe that
every mans success is within himself,
and must come out of himself. No
true, abiding, and just success can
come to any man in any other way.
Secondly, man must be seriously in
earnest. He must act with singlcncsS
of heart and purpose; he must do with
all his might and with all his cOncen-
tration of thought the one thing ut the
one time which he is called upon to do.
And if some of my young friends should
say here, Il can not do that can
not love work then | answer that
there is n certain remedy, and it is
work. Work in spite of yourself, and
make the habit of work, and when the
habit of work is formed it will be trans
figured into the love of work; and at
last you will not only abhor idleness,
but you will have no happiness out of
work which then you are constrained
from love to do. The man must be
charitable, not ccnsorius -self-etfacing,
not sclf-Sccking; and he must try ut
once to think and to do the best for his
rivals and antagonists that can be
done. The man must believe that labor
is life, that successful labor is life and
gladncss, and that successful labor,
with high aims and just objects, will
bring TO him the fullest. truest. and
happicst life that can be lived upon the
earth. "-NedicaL Record.

Two Dogs That Got Mixed.

Meeting gentleman the other day
the Boston transcripts Listener re-
marked that he had seen his bulldog
Bluff with him lately, and asked what
had become of him. Well" said he,
lit is the sad outcome of that singular
Mccarthy business" What do you
mean?' asked the Listener, Why"
said he, "have you never heard Of that?
Well, l will tell you. Down on the
corner below our house there lived the
widow Mccarthy and she had dog that
looked so much like mine that we could
never tell them apart. They were
singularly alike, even to the left
handed twist in the tail. Well, we
mixed the dogs up so often that they
ended by mixing each other up. Our
dog would see Mrs. Mccarthy GO
ing down the street and would sup
pose that he was her dog, and would
take after her. When she got home
her dog, seeing the other one follow
ing her, would suppose he must have
made mistake. and that he was our
dog, and then he would come right
over 10 our house. That would settle
them for a day or so, and then some
accident would switch them of again
and then they would all be at sea once
more" We'll how did it come out?"
That's what | am going to tell yci.
At last somebody poisoned Mrs. Nc
Carthy's dog. And as by this time
neither dog had any guide to go by but
the conduct of the other our poor dog
was at n perfect loss to know whom he
belonged to, and he vibrated so con-
stantly from one opinion to the other,
and from one house to the other, and
lived in such state of continual vexa-
ton that it preycd on his reason. We
were afraid that he was going mad,
and we had to shoot him. Poor old
Grip! He deserved better fate"

A FOXY THIEF TRAPPED.
He Pleaded Somnambulism, and Being
from Chicago, Got Free.

We had been stopping at hotel al
Des Moines for two or three days wher
two men arrived by the same train.
One was drummer for New York
jcwelry house and the other apparent
ly a country parson of meek and lowly
ways. That was the way we sized him
up; but the drummer, being naturally
suspicious of all men, contended that
the supposed parson was some thief
after his valise of valuable samples.
To convince him to the contrary, | took
the opportunity to introduce myself to
the other man and draw him out, and
he presented me with card on which
was printed his name, REV. Joseph
Smith," and he claimed to hail from
town about twenty miles away. His
congregation had planned some church
entertainment, and he had come up to
buy some needed iixings. That's all
there was to it. except he hoped and
trusted that ! was not walking in the
broad way which lcadcth to destruction
and his offer to come TO my room and
knecl with me in prayer. / was per-
fectly satisfied that he was all wool
and yard wide, and returned to SO
report.
The drummer had his own ideas,
however. He took his sample case to
his ROOM but aftcrward slyly changed
it to another. Then he vacated his
room for one across the hall. and in
the vacated room. just in front of the
bed, set fox trap. He wanted bear
trap, but couldn't get one in town.
When all was ready we went to bed,
four or five of us having rooms down
the hall from the parsons. As we
passed his door we heard the good man
reading aloud from his Bible; / felt
like knocking on his door and apollo
giving for the pigheadedncss OF the
drummer.
About midnight there was a sudden
yell, followed by the clanking of chains,
which aroused every one of us, and as
soon rs we could turn out we discov-
cred that the parson had been caught
in the fox trap. He had stepped his
right foot into the jaws, and was sit
ting on the bed and staring into va
cancy when we found him. He had
the check to declare that he was walk
ing in his sleep and seemed much
gricved when we asked him how it
was that he had unlocked the door with
a skeleton key. In the morning when
arraigned in court, his plea was SOM
and what did the Court do
but order him turned loose! In doing
SO His Honor explained:
About ten years ago | was found in
a mans barn saddling and bridling lis
5000 horse. 1t was case of Somnam-
bulism on my part, but they wickedly
forced me to pay $500 to settle the
case. | then determined never to do
any one a like injustice, and the pris
oner is honorably discharged.
Half a day later it TRANSFERRED that
the good man" was noted Chicago
thief, but he had chcesed the racket
and was oif.-N. Y. SIN.

Gaming on the Hand.

A father sued an English school
master for assault. because he had
caned his boy on the hand. The magis-
trate before whom it was first tried
thought that the father was right, for
the reason that Gaming on the hand was
attended by risk of injury, and there
were methods of corporal punishment
quite as available, eillcacious, aud not
necessarily attended by any risk, which
the defendant might have used" The
higher court, though decided that 1t
was not actionable.
