How to Keep am Umbrella.

.'Do you know how 1 have kept my
umbrellas for years?" said a New York
man one morning to his companion in
the train. well. I'll show you,'' and
he lifted up a fold of the handsome silk
one he had in his hand. Right in the
center Of the fold was a round hole
''First thing do,' he said, 'when get
a. new umbrella is to cut a. hole in it
about as big as q cookey close to the
edge. That doesn't hurt the umbrella
for service any, but it looks queer and
nobody ever wants it. Nobody at home
borrows it, nobody ever takesit by mis-
take;' or, if it is taken, the mistake
never lasts longer than it takes to open
the umbrella. It's surer than ones
name, even when you put stolen from
before it. because nobody ever really be-
lieves that Legend you see, and it passes
for joke. I began putting this mark
On my umbrella twelve years ago, and
I've carried every umbrella I've bought
since until the silk wore out. And not
one would have been taken off if had
carried it until the hole wore OUT

A Cats Long East.

An English Immigrant who landed at
the barge Office the other day from the
steamship Nevada, says the New York
Sun, unsuspeeting]y brought with her a
vagrant cat Of the sterner sex from Liy-
erpool. The Woman's household articles
were stored in big box. After the box
was dumped on the .Guion lines pier at
Liverpool, she found that there was
something in 1t that she wanted to use
on the voyage. She had the box opened.
The cat surreptitiously got into the
opening, and presumably finding the
feather bedding inside Luxurious and
soporidc, permitted itself to go to sleep,
and was nailed up. When the Customs
Inpectors opened the box on the Guion
line pier here they were startled to find
tho cat, so emanciated from his seven
teen days fast that his ribs protruded
Like barrel hoops. The ships carpenter
gave him a bowl Of milk and he braced

Proposal OF q Bashful Lawyer in TRUE
Legal Form.
Ii is said that a certain legal bachelor,
who is soon to be married, is not as bold
an advocate before the romantic tribunal
Of love as he is al che bar Of justice,
says the Louisville Post. For roany
years he conducted his own cause in
such @ fains-l1earted manner and de-
ferGed his Argument for SO long a time
that the case promised to be as inter
n1inab!e as some of the attorneys own
legal actions which have been dragging
through the legal courts for years The
lawyer-loveH had, on several occasions,
made up his mind to submit bis case to
his lady love on it's merits, but his cour~
age Invariably failed him. Being nnac-
olainted with the arts Of love- and the
language thereof, he feared 10 address
her by letter, but he finally hit upon the
novel plan Of ''briefing'' bis case. He
reviewed the whole courtship from
strict legal construction. couched his
appeal in legal phraseo2ogy, entered u
formal motion that the case be decided
on its merits, and dispatched the doc
ument to his lady love by his office
boy. .....
The same morning it came back with
the following Endorsement in a chiro-
graphy that the delighted counsel REQ
oguized as that of the fair arbiter of Ills
destiny; "Came this day into court t., B.,
by attorney, who moves that the cause
of A. B. VS.. G, d. be decided upon The
testimony now before the court; the de-
PENDANT having waived a jury it is Or
dered by the court that Judgment be Ell
tered for the plaintiff and the process Of
execution issue at once"
The plaintiff, however, was not quite
ready, and he permitted the defendant
to file a replevin# bond at sig months
At the expiration Of that time the law
yer will take possession of his fair prop
erty, and s. cause celebre will como to q
fitting end.

The story leaked out through letter
from the lady that accompanied him,

THE following words of Mathew Al

THE following words Of Mathew Ar
mold are worthy of consideration by the
rampant preachers Of this city: The
reason why men of IMAGINATION and
philosophers, too, will always have a
weakness for the Catholic Church is be
cause of the rich treasures Of human
life which have been stored within her
pale. Who has seen the poor in other
churches as they are seen in Catholic
churches? Catholicism, besides, en-
veloped human life: and Catholics in
general feel themselves to have drawn
not only their religion from the Church,
they feel themselves to have drawn
from her, too, their art and poetry and
culture. Fl there is a thing specially
alien to religion, it is division; il there
is a thing specially native to religion it
is peace and union. Hence the original
attraction towards unity in Rome. and
hence the great charm and power for
men, minds of that unity when once
attained. I persist ia thinking that
Catholicism has from this superiority 8
great future before it; that it will en-
dure while all the Protestant sects dis
SsolYe and perish.

that the years that belonged to youth

the fact that old age is within a stones
throw. This evidence is the hand, says
the Chicago Herald. The roundness

She says when do it myself my things

But if the mother were less self-sacri-

reduce those clumsy stitches to a re-
specially small fraction of an inch in

Another young lady admitted, the
other day, with laugh, that she al

the edges of the holes together with the
