Questions About Change.

Did you ever start out with more
errands than you had time to do,
grudging every moment Of delay,
and find yourself without your purse
when the conductor called for your
fare9 Did you ever see a conductor
hold the pennies that some other
passenger gave in change till you
passed up. your coin and then work
them off on you9
Did you ever think that you'd lost
your purse and make frantic little
dashes into any place that could hold
it and presently find it where it be-
longed2 Did you ever take perforated
dimes and quarters in exchange for
good coin2 Still worse, did you ever
hand up coin in good faith and see
the salesman ring it on the counter

What a "PIush Cut" Means.

What did he mean9 Hooked around
also. Evidently there were none Ia
sight. His friend said:
That's so. You don't see them
much now. l presume they will
come back again soon. They come
in fads. One fellow who is popular
takes it up, and the others are sure to
follow suit" Curiosity had opened
my ears at first. Desperation was
straining them now.
"Yes, generally one bright fellow
leads the style for the swim, and the
fellows in other cliques take it up.
A year ago in any auditorium in the
city every fellow that pretends to

Distinction For y Tfaveier.
An Englishmon making the grand
tour about the middle Of the last cen
tury, when travellers we're more OBJ
jects OF attention than they are nov,
on arriving at Turin sauntered out
TO see the place.
He happened TO meet n regiment
OF infantry returning from parade
and took position to see II pass. A
young captain, evidently anxious TO
make n display before the stranger,
in crossing one Of the numerous wa,
ter courses with which the city is in
tersected, missed his footing, and in
trying to save himself lost his hat.
The exhibition was truly unfortu
nate--the spectators laughed and
looked at the Englishman, expecting
to see him laugh too. On the con-
trary, he not only retained his com.
posure, but promptly advanced to
where the bat had rolled, and taking
it up presented it with an air of un-
affected kindness to its confused
owner.
The officer received it with blush
of surprise and gratitude and hur-
ried to rejoin his company; there
was a murmur Of applause, and the
stranger passed on. Though the
scene of a moment and without q
word spoken, it touched every heart,
not with admiration for mere dis
play of roliteness. but with a warm
er feeling for proof Of that true
charity (which never faileth."
On the regiments being dismissed
the captain, who was a young man
of consideration, in glowing terms
related the circumstance to his colo
mel. The colonel Immediately men
toned il to the general in command,
and when the Englishman returned
to his hotel he found an aid-de-camp
waiting to request his company to
dinner at headquarters.
In the evening he was carried to
court, at that time, as Lord Chester
field tells us, the most brilliant court
in Europe.
OF course during his stay at Turin
he was invited everywhere, and on
his departure he was loaded with let
ters of introduction to the different
states of Italy. Philadelphia Times.

No one who has not worked long
among the poor can realize the serious
drawback to good temper, comfort

the disposal of ashes involve with
people who must eat, sleep, bathe and
live around a coal stove three or four
flights from the cellar or ash barrel,

tenements. The waste in fuel IL Of

A Conditional Marriage Fee.

The following is told by a pastor Of
a village church about eight miles
from Boston. He was sitting in his
library one evening recently when q
knock on the door came. He an
swered and found a couple who de-
sired to be united in matIimony.
The pastor asked them into his par
lor and performed the marriage cere
mony. after which the groom hand
ed him sealed envelope supposed to
have contained the usual compensa
ton. The happy couple departed,
and the reverend gentleman opened
the envelope and found the follow
