A Ruined weddinr cake.

An English gentleman residing in
Calcutta brought an action against q
firm of Paris pastry cooks and confec-
TONERS under rather interesting circum-
stances. The plaintiff was about to be
married and ordered what has been call
ed a phenomenal wedding cake from
the defendants. A sum of $3.50 was
paid down for the cake on delivery.
The colossal and expensive article of
confectionery was packed by the plain
tiff's order, and he took it with him tol
Calcutta. On opening the case contain
ing the cake when he arrived in India,
the Englishman found that he had lit
orally nothing but shapeless mass of
crumbs. The splendid gateau had been
hopelessly bruised and broken during
the voyage.
An action was then brought against
the Paris firm for sum of $135, which
included, besides the price paid for the
cake, the cost of packing and transport.
The defendants maintained before the
Paris tribunal of commerce that they
had no more responsibility after they
had delivered over the cake to the per-
son who ordered 1t. 1t was true that
they recommended packer, but that
expert acted under the orders of another
individual, who had been selected by the
plaintiff to superintend the operation.
The tribunal decided in favor of the de-

TERMINAL ISLAND, Feb. 3.-There are
at present not enough boats fishing to

Whether or not the tariff reform move
ment is responsible for this state Of at
fairs we are unable to tell, as such able
expounders of the evil results to follow
such legislation for the people as the
Times and Express are mum on the
subject. The fishermen give various
reasons, as that the FISH won't bite too
cold, not enough money in it, etc. But,
whatever the reason, it will only be
temporary, and then the millions of fish
that are now having such picnic will
have to look "leedle oudt" or they will
be taken in out OF the wet.

Soft Words.

One of the most curious of current
beliefs is that of hypocrisy lurking in
pleasant manners and sincerity j those
that are rough or stern. 1t seems a
relic of our Puritan forefathers, but it
certainly is out of place today. One is
foolish, or very innocent, to give heed
to more than the letter of society cour-
tesies. But, on the other hand, the
wish to please is a good sign in itself,
and the willingness to hurt, by word
as we'll as by deed, is bad sign in it.
self. Selfshness is, far more than hy-
pocrisy even, usual failing. And
there is small hope for the habitually
self absorbed rough speaker, while there
is always a chance that the soft manner
may sink into the heart. To those who
tell us that soft words butter no pars-
nips, we may retort, oil ID also better
for wig than vinegar. If proverbs
mean anything, it is because there is
one for every side of question. Elk
