4HORSE'S S1G4CITT.

An instance of a horses sagacity
was seen recently on the street. 1t
was cold, raw day and the wind
was biting Hitched to milk wagon
it was standing on the cold side OF the
street. Suddenly he seemed to dis
cover something interesting, and be
gan walking toward the grated open
ing of sewer. Steam was issuing
from it, and the stone paving blocks
around it were dry, while the rest of
the street was sloppy and cold. The
horse went to the opening and held
his head and shoulders over it, now
and then turning from side to side as
if to get thoroughly warm. In few
minutes the driver came up and led
the horse across the street, while he
went into house to deliver milk. As
soon as he got inside the door the
horse again walked over to the steam
and got another warming before his
driver returned.

HIS RECORD KEPT CLEAN.

A few days ago tramp called at a
well known home in the city about
breakfast time and asked for some
thing to eat. The gentleman of the
house informed the tramp that there
was a pile of wood in his back yard,
and that if he would saw up quaint
ty of it he would give him a breakfast.
The tramp agreed, and the gentle,
man of the house forthwith conducted
him to the pile of wood and, after
pointing out to him the saw, retired
into the house.
A short time afterward, wishing to
see how the tramp was progressing, he
went out into the yard. The tramp
had disappeared and not log of wood
had been sawed. As he approached
the pile of wood he noticed piece OF
paper fastened to the saw, and on IL
were written these words:
Just tell them that you sawme,
But YOU never saw lie saw.

ADVICE TO YOUNG MEN.

Agree with the girls father in poll
ties and the mother in religion. If you
have rival keep an eye on him. II
he is widower, keep two eyes on him.
Don't put too much sweet stuff on
paper. If you do you will hear it read
in after years when your wife has
some special purpose in inflicting up
on you the severest punishment
known to married man. Go home
at a reasonable hour in the evening.
Don't wait until girl has to throw
her whole soul into II yawn that she
can't cover with her hands. A little
thing like that might cause GOODNESS
at the very beginning of the game.
If. on the occasion of your first call,
the girl upon whom you set your af-
fections looks like al iceberg and acts
like a cold wave, take your leave early
and stay away Woman in her hour
of freeze is uncertain, coy, and hard
to please. In cold weather finish say
ing good night in the house. Don
stretch it all the way 20 the front
gate. and thus lay the foundation for
future asthma, bronchitis and neural
