Good Story Of Goldsmith.

Among the anecdotes told OF Oliver
Goldsmith while at college is one in
dicative OF the prompt, but thoughtless
and often whimsical benevolence
which, throughout his life, formed one
of the most eccentric yet endearing
points Of his character. He was en-
gagged to breakfast one day with a COLI
lege chum, but failed to make his APP
pearance His friend repaired to his
room, knocked at the door and was
hidden to enter. To his surprise he
found Goldsmith in his bed, immersed
to his chin in feathers. .vei'at 81 4 =
A serio-comic story explained the
circumstance. In the course Of the
preceding evenings stroll he had.Imet
with woman with five children, who
implored his charity. This was too
much for the kind heart of Goldsmith.
He was almost as poor as herself. it is
true, and had no money in his pocket;
but he brought her to the college gates,
gave her the blankets from his bed to
cover her little brood. and part OF his
clothes for her to sell and purchase
food; and, finding himself cold during
the night he cut open his bed and bur
led himself among the feathers.

Yes, said the legislator, "that's the

evening at 6 o'clock, punctual to tho

Then the conversation turned upon

The Way Chloral Works.

Hydrate of choral is very tricky
medicine. The first time you take it for
insomnia the modest little dose gives you
sleep as soft and sweet and natural as
that OF a healthy child; and you wake
clear minded, vigorous, and without any
"after effects. So with gradually di.
minishng efficiency the drug works
through succeeding experiments; but by
and by you find that to produce sleep
you must steadily increase the dose.
And then, OF sudden and without warn
ing. the mysterious fluid seems to reassert
over the constitution its pristine power.
and the greatly increased dose puts you
SO soundly to- sleep that you never
awaken in this world ...--. ..-

The fact is, American pearls are

have no doubt they were found in the
days of Washington, and there are
records OF such discoveries sixty years
ago. The first real excitement over
American pearls occurred some thirty
odd years ago. when man found Il
