A Cent and a Quarter.

A man went into the post Office OF
a neighboring town recently, says the
Canoe, and told the postmaster that
he desired thirteen 2-cent stamps for
a cent and a quarter. The postmas-
ter refused to give them to him, stat
ing that the cost would be 20 cents.
The man persisted ingetting his order,
claiming that he could get them at
any Office for that amount, and even
threatened the Government official il
he continued to refuse him. Finally
the postmaster ordered him out, but
the man none dAunted, took a cent
and a ascent piece from his pocket,
and laying them down on the counter,
he received his stamps for a cent and
aquarter. The post master was a little
discomfitedfo for a while, but now enjoys
the joke as we'll as any one.

An Interesting invention.

The railway accident at Yorkhill,
Glasgow, in which five platelayers
were killed by an express train, has in.
duced Sir William Arrol, the we'll.
known contractor of the Forth Bridge
to devise an indicator of approaching
trains. A small contact maker is fix
ed beside one of the rails at a distance
from the platelayers, and in circuit
with a battery and electric bell which
is placed near the workman. The
wheels of the locomotive press the
contact, and by completing the cir.
cult ring the bell so as to warn the
men. Sir William has not patented
the device, which has been adopted by
the North:.British Railway Company,
and only costs about fifty shillings.

the kind deed to Theodore Globs-

And The Evening Radiator gave the
honor to Thomas Globster,
And The Semi Weekly gave great
praise to "our esteemed fellow-citizen,
Mr.. T. G. Lobster"
1t came to pass that Mr.. Globster
read the Bugle, the Radiator and the
Eaglet, and saw what liberties had
been taken with his hitherto unfair
nished name.
And in his righteous wrath and
modification he sought the illusory
"'rsolation OF the bowl and waxed
'proarious and b%ellicose, until the
avs minions were compelled to con-
inc him Tor a time, and in due course
he was adjudged of the cadi.
