were of both sexes. 1t was not surprising
to see women grown old and haggard
clutching at the straw wrapped up in the
sample jar, nor was it very strange to see
girls with compilations like peaches and
cream vainly trying to improve on nature,
but it was exceedingly funny to see the
men 90 in, dive into their vest pockets for
the magic coupon and sneak out with the
tiny bottle Some of them Just came in
for their wives''-poor fellows-and they
looked the most sheepish of all. And that
is where they differed from the women.
The women took it as matter of course
and exchanged condolences with each 9th
er especially seeking out those who looked
as if they might be customers and scan
ming them with critical eye.
1T can't be possible that those men
really want that stuff for themselves,
said lady to one of the attendants.
"Oh, but indeed they do, madame, said
the girl. "They often and often want to
take our treatment, and when we won t
give it to them they buy the whole set OF
remedies and work on themselves at home.
You ladies don't know all that there is to
be known about men yet. If you just
watch here for awhile, you'll see.
So the first speaker sat and watched, and
she saw what seemed an endless procession
of young men and old men, bald men and
hairy men, men with wrinkles and men
without, all seeking what women alone
have been supposed to chase - eternal
youth and beauty.

crets," said bright girl, do you think

sotted but intelligent stable keeper once
observed to me, "a kind word for boss

A single blow may be enough to spoil
a racer. Daniel Lambert, founder of
the Lambert branch of the Morgan fam
ily, was thought as a 3-year-old to be
the fastest trotting stallion of his day.
He was a very handsome, stylish, intel
ligent horse, and also extremely sensi-
tive.
His driver, Dan Mace, though one of
the best reinsmen in America, once made
the mistake. through i'll temper or bad
Judgment, of giving Daniel Lambert a
severe cut with the whip, and that sim
gle blow put an end to his usefulness as a
trotter. He became wild and ungovern-
able in harness and remained so for the
rest of his life.
In dealing with a horse more than with
most animals one ought to exercise pa
tience, care and above all the power Of
sympathy, so as to know if possible the
real motive of his doing or refusing to
do this or that. To acquire such knowl-
edge and to act upon it when required
is large part of the ethics of horse
keeping.-Youth's Companion.

friend of hers to consult him ON matter

HOE YOUR OWN ROW.
1t Is a ProftIess Proceeding to Garry Goals
to Newcastle.

1t Is a ProfitIess Proceeding to Garry Goals
to Newcastle.
There are more ways than one, my son,
of CARRYING Goals to Newcastle, and in
almost every case it is a profitless pro-
ceeding on the part Of the person engag.
ed in it.
Therefore, my son, have nothing to do
with that kind of traffic-that is to say,
do not encroach upon anOther's preserves
except to admire. Do not attempt to
stock them with your own game.
When a man is salesman in dry
goods store, do not attempt to instruct
him by the ventilation of ideas of your
own. If he be an actor, do not intrude
upon him any of your amateur notions.
If clergyman, refrain from ScripturGl
citation and exegesis when in his compa-
ny. If a professional humorist, resist,
as it were the evil one, all temptation to
righteousness and paronomasia. If anne
chanic, do not presume to give him points
in his calling.
But, on the other hand, my son, do not
attempt to interfere with his speaking or
his calling, profession or speciality. So
long as you listen you make no mistake,
and the wing of friendship molts no
feather.
Give ear to the story of his experiences
at the counter, but interject none of your
own; listen to and applaud his spoutings,
but spout not yourself; receive with be-
coming reverence his interpretations of
holy writ. but NEEDLE not yourself with
that which the lay mind is not supposed
to be able to cope withal; listen and
laugh at his wit and whimseys, but
hazard no joke of your own; attend
while he relates his mechanical achieve
ments, but vaunt not yourself in the
same line.
1t is a common mistake, my son, to
suppose that because a man delights in
talking about certain something in
which he is proficient, he loves to hear
every babbler that falls in his way des-
cant upon the same subject; that because
it pleases him to exalt himself in a given
direction he likes to hear others in the
same direction exalt themselves.
When man knows a thing thorough
ly-or thinks he does, which amounts to
the same so far as he is cOncerned-he is
quite ready and willing to instruct others,
but he brooks no incursions by others
into his peculiar domain. When he has
finished the exposition of his wares, it is
time for you to show up yours, provided
of course they are of an entirely differ
ent line.
There must be reciprocity in the COM
merce of conversation, an exchange of
complementary commodities. Each must
give what the other lacks and receive III
return that in which he is wanting, else
there can be no trade, no harmony.
You would not ship oranges to Flori-
da, ice to Nova Zembla or hot air fur
naces to Sahara. Then why carry Goals
to Newcastle?
Therefore, my son, let each man pad
die his own canoe as it best pleases him.
Admire, applaud, if you willard it is
your best hold-but don't put in your
oar, though he be swamping.-Boston

Omething About Oranges.

1t is orange season again, and those
who are fond of them are very glad to
get their favorite fruit once more. 1t is
possible to buy oranges at any season of
the year, and as nearly everybody likes
them there is a steady demand for the
fruit all the year round. But the orange
months have always been from Decem-
Der until May. Oranges are sweet then
Snd very juicy.
This year, however, it has been discov-
cred that oranges can be easily brought
all the way from Brazil, and as the Bra
lillian oranges are at their best in No
vember there is plenty of them to be
found now.-Exchange.

said, to hear whispers at distance. At
one time he walked round and round a
horse trying to mesmerize it with this

church. At the funeral of very old and

the grave three times with a pickax, and
blowing his whistle all the time declared
that he was communicating with the dead.
Mr.. G. Underwood, the wears warden,
depOsed that on one occasion he noticed
the respondent blowing a whistle during
service. He blew the whistle in order to
emphasize statement he was making.

that he was adjudged lunatic and in

An extraordinary lunacy case has lately
been attracting much attention in Lon
don. 1t originated in a demand made by
the Rev. Clement Tollemache and Captain
Anastasius Tollemache that an investiga-
ton should be made into the mental con-
dition of their brother, the Rev. Augustus
Tollemache, vicar of Whitwick, in Leices-
tershire.
Mr. Tollemache is a bachelor about 81
years of age and has held the Whitwick
living for II years. Twelve months ago
he began to show signs of eccentricity. He
had policeman's whistle and used to blow
it during service in church. On April ~,
when the bishop of Peterborough arrived
to perform the ceremony of confirmation,
TOllemache was found sitting among the
girl candidates and refused to leave them.

The Passing of Parties.

No party remains virtuous more than
twenty years. That also is in the nature
of things. Supremacy is demoralizing.
The Democrats now take the govern.
ment by order of the popular vote, and
they will keep it so long as they are true
to their trust-no longer. When they
become derelict some other party, nc
matter by what name it may be called,
will issue an order of eviction. The
country is forever safe in the hands OF
the people. 1t is never safe for any pro-
longed period in the hands of any party.
