A Little Too Warm.

An old gentleman, Who taught a
country school in New Hampshire fifty
years ago, sometimes relates an anus
ing, but not very agreeable experience
which came to him IN that long-ago
time. Hot water Is a good thing to
warm ones feet, but, generally speak
ing, it is far moro agreeable when in
the bottle than when out of it.
He had been invited to spend the
night at the home of one of his pupils.
1t was in midwinter and very cold, and
during the evening he happened to say
that he suffered greatly from cold feet.
He was shown to an icy-cold bed
room, but in few moments after he
had craw ed between the frosty sheets
there came a rap at his door, and his
kind-hearted host, q thoughtful old
farmer, came into the room, a candle in
one han, and great brown Jug in the
other.
Here" he said, as he approached
the bed, sits cold enough to freeze a
brass image; if you suffer with cold
feet you'd better have something to
keep 'em warm tonight, an I've
brought you ing OF hot water to do it
with"
So saying, he put down his candle,
raised the bed coverings at the foot,
and slipped the hot Jug in between the
sheets and against the young mans
chilled feet.
"Oh, thank you," said the gratifed
guest, "that is very comfortable indeed,
and I-I-Oh! Gracious! take it away
Murderp
The guest rolled from the bed to the
floor, dragging the jug after him, where
it broke into many pieces, while his
host said:
"Thar, now! I was a little skerry O.
that cork when put it in there, but
my wife said there want no danger of
it coming out; but 1 reckon it hez.
Hurt We much? Sorry 1 was so keer-

The Husband Repented.

Apropos of a recent discussion in an
exchange as to the best method of
keeping giddy husbands at home O.
nights, comes the following anecdote:
A little woman up town, whose honey
moon waned three years ago. discov-
cred to her sorrow that her husband
took more interest in "a man who
called on important business Just as I
was leaving the Office" than in his
home life. After puzzling her pretty
head for many lonely evenings, she hit
at last upon plan to startle her liege
lord into repentance.
One night, after the little bronze
clock had souaded forth a dozen
chimes, the husband enter1i the fiat in
the condition usual to gentlemen who
devote themselves too assiduOusly TO
their Offices. He found on the table
note addressed to himself, informing
him that his spouse had gone to the
opera with "a friend"
Sitting a word which is not to be
found II the ritual, he sank into chair
and gazed vacantly into the IRE. Re-
morse entered his heart, and he muir
INJURED an audible vow that he would
never, no never, In italicised capitals,
go out at night without his dear little
wife. Was his repentance too late
has his wife's heart already hardened
toward him? Who was this friend"
anyhow? He would go to the Metro
pOlitan and escort her home himself.
He arose excitedly and started for the
door, but his progress was arrested by
q pair of laughing black eyes that
peeped at him from behind the por-

NakIng Peales to Order.

Whether the pearl has gone out of
fashion because of the facility with
which artificial ones have been made is
a matter that may be accepted as in q
great measure true, for the pearl is one
of the most beautiful of gems. In adj
dition to the efforts, successful, too, to-
ward making artificial pearls, efforts
have also been made from time to time
to force the oyster itself to produce the
pearls by introducing foreign substances
within the shells, which have not been
altogether successful. In the South
Kensington Museum in London the
writer has seen several evidences of
these attempts, IS we'll as shells which
came from China containing small i'm

The Messenger Cut Out.

Here is story of a soto voce COM
munication that must have greatly
troubled its recipient. 1t seems that a
famous impersonation of Lady Mac
beth was starring in America when it
was still customary for the local mana
gers to provide the supporting COM
pany. The star had been accidentally
detained on her journey to a remote
theater. She arrived in time to change
her dress only and hurry on the scene.
The performers were all strangers to
her. At the conclusion of her first
soliloquy a messenger should enter to
announce the coming of King Duncan.
But what was her amazement to hear,
in answer to her demand, What is
your tidings?" not the usual reply,
1.-THE King comes here tonight, but

Scotch bonnet upheld to prevent the
words reaching the ears of the audi
ence, Hush, I'm Macbeth. We've cut

Why He Is Unhappy.

A tall, erect man of 45 years strolled
along Chestnut street, Philadelphia,
the other day, writes a correspondent,
idly looking at the passers-by who
thronged the thoroughfare. He wore a
derby hat, dark top-coat and carried
stick of the most approved pattern.
His clothing was cut in the latest style
and his heavy Vandyke beard pro-
claimed him to be man of fashion.
For convenience he may be called Mr..
Clinton, and he lives in New York.
Mr.. Clinton was left an orphan with
500, 900 income when he was IA years
old. Since then he has been every
where and has seen everything. He
has made two trips around the world,
has hunted silver-tips in the great
divide, and has killed tigers in the
jungles. He has been on Polar ex-
petition, and has tramped through por-
tons of South America. Mr.. Clinton
is at home in Siberia, and would not be
lost in Hong Kong's crooked streets.
Yet, as he said last evening, he is the
most miserable man on earth. He
never married because so many girls
lay in wait for his money, thus, making
him very suspicious. He doesn't know
what to do or how to kill time. He is
by no means unknown as an ethnologist,
and is an authority on certain gases.
He is musical and fond of pictures and
books. But everything bores him.
Just now he is especially melancholy.
Last summer one of his cousins was
taken seriously i'll, and nurse from
Philadelphia was called into requisi-
ton. The nurse is magnificent speci-
men of womanhood, tall, 1.-the, and agile,
possessing eyes and teeth and hair that
perfectly charmed young Mr.. Clinton,
who had been all over the world. Her
manners and conversation captivated
him. He fell in love, proposed-and
was rejected. Since July he has been
getting misersbler and miserabler," so
he says, and has proposed twice more to
the nurse.

GeSelF.PIaying Cards. -

The Listener noticed very odd pla-
card in q Washington street window
last evening; it read: ~Self-playing
cards" At the time he hadn't curiosity
enough to go in and find out what self
playing cars are; but the further away
he got from the sign the more his curl
osity was aroused, and the more he was
impressed with the notion that the in
yentor of these articles had got hold of
a very good thing. Real self-playing
cards that would sit up at the table and
play themselves would be an unspeak-
able boon to thousands of people. With
such an invention an invitation to card
party would not be quite so desolating
as it generally is now. The cards could
be set at work playing whist or euchre,
and the guests with great load off
their minds, could go In and have q
good time. That eccentric friend of the
Listeners who, when he and his wife
get an invitation to whist party, &C
cept it, but with the proviso that his
wife is to play whist while he goes down
cellar and puts in his time saving wood,
would be nightly pleased with the new
arrangement, because it would let him
out of the wood-sawing-and he isn't at
all fond of saving wood. And after all,
what would be more absurd about
games of cards played entirely by ma
chinery than there is In hiring men
human machines at that-to play our
athletic games for us?-BostOTs Tran
script.
