Not q Nourishins Diet.

An old Scotch servant attached to
the household of the famous British
logician, Sir William Hamilton, was as
proud of his masters fame as If it had
been his own, and, having picked up a
few of Sir Williams technical words
and phrases, brought them into play on
every possible occasion.
One day a gentleman who was fond
Of drawing out old John for the amuse-
ment Of the company said to him. with
an engaging air:
81 suppose, John, now that you've
lived so long with such great reasoner
as Sir William, you are quite able to
conduct an argument yourself"
"Weel, Wilma say sac muckle az
that" replied the old Scotchman, with
the modesty Of true genius, 'but ii
Gamma conduct an airgyment, I'm think
in could draw an inference"
"Could you? Let rs see, thens There's
an Eastern proverb, You know, about
the wild ass shutting up the east wind,
Now what inference would you draw
from that?"
For moment old John looked non
plussed, as well he might, and then .
CLEAN Of sly humor twinkled In the cor
ner Of his dark gray eye, and he an
swered, with a grim chuckle:
"Aweel. the inference that ] wad

Angles in New Telescopes.

In the new form of telescope for stadia
work spider lines are entirely omitted,
and instead prism is placed so as to
cover one-half the objective of the tele-
scope, the consequence being that the
rays passing through the prism make an
angle with the rays passing through the
unobscured half of the objective, and
this angle is constant whatever the dis
lance Of the object observed.-New

BEATTY's PIANOS AND ORGANS.

Hon. Daniel f. Beatty, the great
Organ and Piano man of Washing
ton, N. j., is buster than ever. In
1870 Mr.. Beatty left home a penni-
less pillow boy, and by his indomita-
BILE will he has worked his way up
so as to sell so far nearly 100000 of
Beatty's Pianos and Organs since
1870. Nothing seems to dishearten
him; obstacles LAID in his way, that
would have wrecked any ordinary
man forever, he turns to an adver-
tisement and comes out of it brighter
than ever. His instruments are in
use everywhere. We are informed
that during the next ten years he in
tends to sell 100000 more of his
make; that means a business of $780,
100000 if we average them at 500
each. 1t is already the largest bust
ness of its kind in existence. Read
his advertisement.

English POStu en-.

The postmaster general has issued in
structions to the surveyors of the postoffice
throughout the kingdom that in future
vacancies, whether temporary or perma-
nent, among the rura and provincial town
postmen are to be preferentially filled by
the appointment OF soldiers of good char
acter belonging to the reserve, or having
served their time. Applications from suit
able candidates should be made to the Off
GERS commanding the depot centers, or to
the Guards Employment society.
This system cannot At present be adopted
in the metropolis, because up to a certain
period the telegraph messengers were en-
gagged on the prospect of being appointed
to vacancies as postInen when of proper
age, upon approved service and on passing
certain examination. But about 16, 900
places will thus be opened to soldiers
They will, of course, have to pass the ex-
animation prescribed by the civil service
commissioners, and their good character
must be vouched for by the military au-
thorities. London Tit-Bits.

Bangles Are Unlawful.

The stringing of small coins to form
bangles or bracelets has been decided to
be fraudulent multi alton of lawful mon
ey, and even the pierre ng of coin for use
as watch chain pendant is held to be an
offense. 1t is well to bear this in mind,
because it is in opposition to the old coun-
try maxim that there is no offense in cut
ting coin unless it is subsequently offered
as money, and prima facie case of fraud
thus established
1t is not very likely that government of
ficers will go around arresting all ladies
found wearing ornaments with pierced
coins in them. for even if there were no
other risk, there would be great danger of
arresting some one who was wearing a
string of foreign coins closely resembling
ours at first glance. But the law is so in
convenient and unrea sonable that it will
more than likely be repealed.-Interview
