The advice which Daniel Webster
gave to a neighbor of his, in the fol
lowing anecdote, might be followed
with advantage b. many people. In
deed, the reader will be likely to think
that it might have been followed to
very good advar tage by Mr.. Webster
himself.
On M occasion a man presented TO
Mr.. Webster a ill for payment.
"Why. Mr.. "" said the states

Mr.. N rrotested that it had not
been paid, AID Mr.. Webster told him
tocall in a lew days and he would at

had gone '4r. Webster asked his clerk
to look over a quantity of bills and see

amount. To his surprise two receipts
were found, indicating that the bill
had been paid twice.

A school Girls Fight.

In order TO keep pace with the pro-
gressive spirit of the times, the two
higher classes of the Women's Medi-
cal college recently INDUCED in a
regular college fight. The dispute
arose over the ownership of a beauti-
full green cushion.
A young lady entered the lecture
room with the cushion. She threw it
upon the bench, and, sitting upon it,
said to her companion: ''Oh, my, but
that is comfortable" Soon after she
missed the seat, and, followed by her
comrades, walked up TO a senior, who
by this time was enjoying the soft seat,
and demanded her property. On re-
ceiving a negative answer 10 her re-
quest the plucky junior grabbed hold
of the cushion and pulled it from UNI
der the senior. In an instant there
was a regular tug of war. The mem
bers of each class came to.thc assist
ance Of their comrades. Each division
held on to the cushion, pulling and
wrestling, and finally both came to
blows.
The widest excitement prevailed,
when the professor, accompanied by
some gentlemen, entered the lecture
room. The professor shouted for or
der, but without avail. He then took
Q hand in the fight and captured the
cushion, which he bore off in triumph
to hts desk.
When quiet had been completely re-
stored the owner of the cushion quiet
ly stepped down to the desk Of the pro-
fessor and returned to her place with
the prize which she, not figuratively,
but literally, sat upon.-Philadelphia

them-two ragged boys amid all the
beauty and grandeur of the temple.
'How did teacher begin?" asked
Dave.

said Dave.
"Till who comes?" asked Tom.

Tom WAS nonplussed. He knew what
