Unfortunate.

How often our most innocent
speeches gang agley," leaving us with
no resource but that of making the
best of bad matter! A certain Scotch
minister is wont to relate how, having
been out all day visiting, he called on
an old dame well known for her kind.
ness and hospitality. After some con-
versation she began getting out her
best china and whatever delicacies
were at hand to honor her unexpected
guest. As he sat watching the prep
arations his eye suddenly fell on four
or five cats devouring some cold por
ridge under the table. Dear me

To Renovate a Couch.

Old touches that it would not be
profitable to pay the upholsterer to re-
cover can often be rejuvenated at
home, if over them there is put fresh
cover of chintz, sateen, corduroy or
mohair furniture plush. If the sofa or
couch has a back, which it is difficult
to manage on the new plan, take it off.
Make the new cover wide enough to
nearly touch the floor at the foot and
across the front, and long enough to
press deep into the crease between the
seat and the raised head, if it has one.
Put frill around it or not as you like
best Long hat pins are convenience
in holding the covers in place. Up
holsterers, when draping on a cover,
gather up large rosette on it at each
corner of the foot, and tie it in place
with linen thread, flattening it and
shaping with few stitches if neces-
sary. The pillows added, if pretty.
make one quite blind to the covering,
il it is only OF the right color. IN. Y.

Rye Whisky Triple.

(Which one of the alcoholic liquors
is the least injurious for man to drink?''
This question was asked a Philadelphia
physician of recognized eminence. He
endeavored to answer it honestly in
the light of his large experience; but
since both the question and his answer
implied that every alcoholic liquor is
injurious, nobody who would not wish
to inflict needless injury upon himself
will care to know what was the reply
The doctor, however, told story that
is worth more than his answer to the
question. When in the west several
years ago, the physician spoke to a
judge, who has since died, of the con-
siderable number of rugged old west
ern lawyers whose invariable tipple
was rye whisky, and raised the ques-
ton whether that was not the least
harmful of strong drinks. Doctor"

stranger here, and you see only the
survivors. Youths Companion.

Der of women turned round to look at
the curious adaptation of old to new

slowly up Broadway above Twenty

that the whole interior could be seen.
There was no coffin there, but right in
the middle of the inside platform there
stood small black vase about eight
inches high and perhaps as many
inches in width across the handles.

There were no mourning coaches

horses for years over mountain road.
He had formerly been gentleman
of fortune, and ut one time in his ca
reer had amassed q considerable sum of
money in the game of chance known
as draw poker. When he was at the

unostentatiously into camp and caused
the report TO be circulated that he was
aching for game. Jim undertook to
relieve the gentleman of the pain
he was suffering on that account,
and they met in the back room of

proceeded to demonstrate his asscr-
