II gentleman if he is thoughtfully con-
sidcratc of others, whether he is II
laborcr or rides in n carriage. The au-
thor of England, Without and Within"
gives an anccdotc of an casy-going
English gentleman, who was not bound
by the absurd law against parccl-carry
ing.
a shoemaker had misscnt to him Il
pair of shoes intended for IL ncighbor,
and had probably sent to the neighbor
the shoes that should have been sent to
him. AS he had no prejudice against
carrying bundles he went with the shoes
to his friends house.
On arriving at his friends door he
asked to see Mr.. Dash, but was under
stood by the servant to ask for Mrs.
Dash, and was ushcrcd into her pres
ence. The lady, who had never seen
him before, looked UP and CURLY asked:
"What have you thcrc?'
"Nlr. Dash's Shoes" replied the gen
tlcman.
"Oh, yes; it's all right. Mr.. Dash is
out, but he'll bc in soon. and if you
want to sec him you'd hotter take II
seat in the hall and wait till he comes"
"But. madam began the gentle
man. who was Il baronct's son.
Mover mind. never mind; it's all
right Step out in the hall, please, and
wait for Mr.. Dash"
The gentleman, OF course, appreciated
the situation ut once. But he was too
wcll-brcd, and had too keen u sense of
hunor to explain, which would have
both mortified tho lady and prevented
him from enjoying her mistake. He
stepped into the hall, intending To give
the shoes to servant and leave the
house.
But meeting his friend coming in, he
gave him the shoes and, after ii few
words, badc him good morning. Though
pressed To remain. he refused, knowing
that his return Co the wifcs presence
would cause her embarrassment.
His consideration for the feelings of
another person would have made him Il

evening papers, mentioning my name

my cousin came ND and said to him:

''What's that?" said he.
'Why his death in the Soudan."
