JUaaLER's TRICKS. = Cinquevalli, the French juggler, says that it is hard to tell which is his most difficult trick. "As a usual tl1ing," he goes on, ''the easiest trick is the most showy and gets the most applause, while some very difficult feat twill not get hand, as we say. For in stance, the trick of throwing potato in the air, dividing it with one stroke of the knife, and then catching the two halves, one on the fork and one on the knife, is perhaps the most difficult, and took me nearly two years to learn. It is so quick. ly done, however, and apparently so easy, that an audience cannot appreciate it be- fore it is over. Let me purposely drop the potato and catch it on the knife blade just as it is only an inch from the floor and they burst into applause. It is so unexpected Two others of my most difficult tricks one, balancing cigar on top of another on my forehead, and tossing it from there so that it turns over once and falls point first into a cigar holder in my mouth the other, twirling hoop in my right hand with glass of water balanced inside its rim, and passing two balls through it witt my left hand, have been watched witt stolid indifference by an audience that went wild over juggling two plates in tho air, one of the simplest tricks.

"MUST" AND "MUSTN,T."

"A fellow can t have any fun," growled Tom. "Its just must and mustn't from morning till night. You must do this, you must learn that; or you mustn't go there i; you mustn't say that, and you mustn't do the other thing At school, you're just tied right up to rules, and at home-well, shake of mothers head means more than dozen mustn'ts. Seems pity boy can't have his own way hal1 the time, and do something as he likes.
 "Going to the city this morning, Tom ? asked Uncle The'd from the adjoining room.
 "Why, of course," answered Tom promptly.
 "Going across the common "Yes, sir always do." ssI wish you'd notice those young trees they've been setting out the last year ol two. There's something rather queer, i seems to me. Of course, the old trees will die sooner or later, and others will bt needed, but-well, you just observe then rather carefully, so as to describe their ap pearance, etc."
 "What about those trees, Tom P asked Uncle Thed after tea, as they sat on tho piazza.
 "Why, they're all right; look little CtamPeu, to uo SuIo SutpPou ohoAe oh oA top, and tied up to poles, snug as yor please, every identical twig of them bu that's as it should be, to make them ship shape-ion't you. see? They can't grow crooked if they would. They'll make a' handsome trees as you ever saw one O these days. Haven't you noticed thu trees in MT. Benson's yard ? tall and scrag gly and crooked, just because they wer left to grow as they pleased. The cit. fathers now don't propose to run an. risk -
 "But wonder how the trees feel abou the must and mustn't" remarked Uncl The'd, dryly.
 Exit Tom, wishing he had not sai quite so much on the subject of trees--an boys.
