The Value of n Little Thing.

In little volume of lectures by Henry
Irving, just published, is a story which
illustrates the actors motto, While
trifles make perfection perfection is no
trif1e." "This lesson was enjoined on
me when | was very young man." he
says, "by that remarkable actress,
Charlotte Cushman. | remember that
when she played Meg Merrilies was cast
for Henry Bertram. 1t was my duty to
give Meg Merrilies piece of money,
and did it after the traditional fashion
of handing her large purse full of coin
of the realm, in the shape of broken
crockery, which was generally used in
financial transactions on the stage. But
after the play Miss Cushman said to me:
Instead of giving me that purse, don't
you think it would have been much
more natural if you had taken a number
of coins from your pocket and given me
the smallest? That is the way one gives
aims to beggar, and it would have
added to the realism of the scene |
have never forgotten that lesson"

A SAVAGE CANARY.
One OF the Very Latest of wild stor1
About We'll Known Animals.

one OF tine very Latest OF Wlld stories
About Wen Known Animals.
SO many stories have been told recently
Of battles between tigers and snakes,
Wildcats and elephants, eagles and ALI
gators and Goldfish and wild hogs that
the following accurate description of an
encounter between tomcat and n ca
nary bird cannot fail to be interesting:
The tomcat and the canary were the
property of an animal dealer on the west
side who has long had reputation for
veracity. The canary was noted for its
fierceness. 1t is a female bird about
years old with bright yellow feather
ing. The tomcat is quite white, with
four legs, and weighs-or rather weighed
about IL pounds.
During the morning it was noticed
that the canary seemed unusually saw
age. She paced up and down her cage
in great rage, crashing her teeth and
glaring at the poor cat, toward whom it
turned out she had developed fierce an
tipathy.
The keeper secured the door of the
cage, as he thought. firmly, but during
a paroxysm of temper the canary
smashed the fastening and was free.
What a momentl The unfortunate
tomcat gave cry of terror and looked
around for some means of escape, but
there was none, the door of the room in
| which the carnivorous animals were kept
being locked.
The proprietor of the menagerie could
do nothing. Spellbound he watched the
uneven contest, fearing all the time that
the fury of the canary bird would be ex-
pended on himself.
With a piteous moan the wretched
tomcat felt the talons of the canary bird
sink into his head. He raised himself
and tried to fight her off, but the bird
parted his every blow and fiercely
pecked at his eyes.
Once the cat seized the bird in his
paw, but she got away from him in a
moment with the loss of only one feather.
She returned to the charge and rendered
one of the cats eyes blind with her sharp
bill.
The fight had lasted five minutes, and
!, the cat had all the worst of it, He was
painting, and every now and then rolled
!, over exhausted, uttering pitiful cries,
; Though he was valued at $780, the keeper
! of the menage1ie, who was armed with
! a sword and a shotgun. did not dare tc
J interfere to save him. The blood of the
, canary was up, and she meant to Stay the
cat.
1t was not long before the awful worl
was accomplished. The bird by an adroit
movement common to canaries when il
conflict with quadrupeds rendered the
D poor Thomas cat quite blind. Then, a
D her leisure, with series of fierce jabs
: she penetrated his brain, and he rolled
0 over completely dead.
The boss was trembling for his owl
e safety, but it now seemed that the saw
+ age instincts of the canary had been sa
D tisfed, for with jaunty cir sheregainet

victory.
1t meant life or death to shut the door
but the brave boss crept courageousl,
. up to the cage and succeeded in accom-
plishing this feat. Then he ran out int,
- the street and tainted The nerve pres
~ sure had been too great for him.-Ney

Oiling Shears.

If your shears squeak or bind while
you are using them, run your finger
thoughtfully down the side of your nose
and rub it over the inside of the blades,
and the scissors will generally work as
easily and noiselessly as any one could
desire. There is always little oil col.
lected in the corners on the outside OF
ones nostrils, and those who know il
can "oil up" squealy shears without
trouble or without fear of making the
scissors greasy. Another simple way tc
accomplish the same end is to draw thu
blades of the shears over the hair, or
which, when it is healthy, there is al
ways little ol.-Writer.

Noah Left the Ark on April 20.

Saturday, April 80, is the day marked
in all ancient calendars as being the one
on which Noah and his family quilted
the ark after having withstood the siege
of the great deluge. The day is marked
in all ancient calendars, especially Brit
ish, as egressus Noae de area; the 18th
of March, the day upon which Noah, his
family and their great floating collec-
ton of natural history specimens set
sail, being designated in the same class
of early printed literature as introitus
Noae in area, 1.-The day of Noah's en-
trance into the ark" Why these days
were chosen as the ones upon which the
supposed embarkation and debarkation
were made are enigmas which the an
tiquarians have not yet solved. st.
