The Sailor and His Pets.

Jack is fond of pets, and when at sea
is allowed to cultivate that fondness tx
a certain extent. The most hard hearted
shipowner does not object to having one
or two stray dogs or cats provided with
homes on his vessel And Jack is very
grateful for this indulgence. 1t affords
him deep pleasure to hold in his loving
though rough embrace the innocent
creature who, either by cheerful wag
of the tail or a responsive purr, assures
him that his attentions are appreciated.
and that the fact of his being lacking in
personal attractions is not taken into
consideration.
Jack loves the poor creature just as
tenderly as if he were perfect. The
ship'Scat may be lean and uninviting in
appearance, but this does not prevent
Jack from petting it. Other pets are
sometimes kept on board ship. 1t is not
unusual for'seamen ON vessels returning
from tropical ports to have pet monkeys
or parrots. The captains wife, who has
her own way sometimes, turns her cabin
into an aviary. Single captains have
been known to keep pets on shipboard,
although, as a rule, they seem ashamed
to display any weakness of this descrip-
tion.-London Tit-Bits.

Makes War on oysters.

Did you ever hear of man who was
victim of the oyster habit? The writer
was in an uptown cafe the other even

big framed man came in and ordered
Blue Point oysters. He ate dozen, or
dered another dozen, then third dozen,
hesitated, as if in doubt, paid his check
and went out. Three dozen oysters
right down made ones eyes open, but
the waiter said: "Oh, that's nothing.
He comes in here every night for raw
oysters. Sometimes he eats three dozen,
sometimes four dozen. He's what ! call
an oyster eater. don't believe he eats

A Quaint Bit of Praise.

To be eulogized when dead is more
often the lot of man than to be praised
in life, but surely aquainter compliment
was never paid dead man than was
received by Talleyrand, for when his
demise was announced to one of his
acquaintance, the latter exclaimed, "He
must have had some good reason for
dying! | think will be at least i'll my
seff," and forthwith went to bed.
Yet another compliment to dead man
was uttered by the Marehioness of -,
who, when told that the celebrated
physician Borden had been found dead
in bed, exclaimed, "Ah! Death was SO
afraid of him that he did not dare attack
him except when he was asleep. "-Lon-
don Standard.

A Joke on the "Britisher."

had been travelling in a railway car
| riage in the south, in company with two
very pleasant men who CHANGED to be
seated opposite to me at the end of the
crowded car, and had got out to "buy a
lunch" as they say, at station, my two
fellow passengers having promised to
keep my seat for me. When returned
to the car found tall, gaunt man, in
broad SLOUGH hat, apparently about to
take my seat, bat yet not actually TAX
ing it.
A glance at my acquaintance opposite
showed me why he hesitated Each of
them was holding cup of coffee to his
mouth with his left hand, while his
right grasped revolver covering the
intruder. Time being short, they were
drinking their coffee while they kept
the Britisher's seat. The tall stranger
politely retired on my appearing, the
others put their revolvers in their hip
pockets without any remark and we re-
sumed our journey.
What amused me most of all. though
was glimpse got of solemn looking
old man about half way down the car
who had drawn out from somewhere an
enormous, Anticipated, ivory handled six
shooter, and was holding it up with his
finger on the trigger, ready to take a
hand in any little festivity that might
arise. He looked SO disappointed when
it all ended in nothing that | felt quite
sorry for him.-Contemporary Review

The Art OF Cutting Clothes.


When we read and listen to discus
sions of comparative value of long or
shoulder measures with those that are
short and sectional, in which one or the
other is denounced as unscientific or
impracticable, our mind immediately
dWells for moment on a proverbially
stupid animal with Tong ears. The fact
is that many cutters are successful
with the first. and just about as many
with the others.
Every man cannot become good cut
ter. Some do not seem to "catch on. !"
as the saying is. and others who seem to
do SO are never able to produce any
other results than such as make old
heads swim"
! Natural ability and educational ad-
vantages generally insure success, but
years OF work on the board, the ability
even to make good coat, is no guar
antee OF the possession of that mental
equipment which is necessary to make :.
good cutter.
When it requires hours of labor to fix
in" some ones mind the difference be-
tween one-third and one-quarter of a
size, how can such one expect to sue
coed as cutter?
When student is able to think quick
ly and clearly, we confidently expect
him to become a skillful cutter, even
though he cannot make coat so well as
many others. The fact is that to be
successful in garment cutting, as in any
other trade or profession, man must
have brains, know how to use them and
use them as he notwithstanding Jour

Boys Method of Avoiding Bad Dreams

A friend has told us that during long
period of his childhood he maintained
the habit of praying every night before
going to sleep that no bad dreams might
trouble him, acting in curious, unthink-
ing coincidence with good old Bishop
Ken, who generations ago resorted to
the same expedient. To further his
prayers the little boy, in spirit of phi
losophy beyond his years, would try to
concentrate his ideas on all the most
humdrum things he could think of, his
thoughts usually settling on the figure
of an old Welsh landlord, small man
with a brown wig, whom he had oc-
casionally visited with his father, and
who, to his childish fancy, appeared the
very personitication of commonplace

bear dangling from his watch chain.
You could size him up only in one way
he had killed his man, or perhaps half
dozen of them. If he hadn't fought
Indians and stood up to the bad, bad
men of the far west, then his looks be-
lied him. He was a quiet, unostenta-
tious man, as all nervy men are. He
was reading dime novel, as all game
men do when they travel. Now and
then he felt down the back of his neck
to see if his bowie knife was cuddling
up to his spine in proper manner, and
now and then he reached down to his
boot legs to. see that his cargo of re-
volvers hadn't shifted.
Three or four of us, after taking plenty
OF time to size him up, decided to ask
him how and where he got the wound
which had left the scar clear across his
left cheek. 1t looked like the work of
Sitting Bulls tomahawk, but we wanted
the particulars. So it was agreed that |
should work him up to tell his story,

he modestly remarked.
"But you certainly had close cali.

"Oh! Perhaps you were in a western
stage when it was held up. and you got
that scar in fighting off the road agents.
