To "stop it," whatsoever it be!
Perhaps you like "the cup that cheers
Perhaps you gamble recklessly;
Perchance you're libellous in tone;
Perhaps you're prone to sigh. and

Perhaps you're temper's very bad;
You talk enough to drive folks mad;
You think that no one else is right;
You flirt with everything in sight;
You have an overbearing way,
Or tell your symptoms" night and

Perhaps you dye the hair that's gray;
Perhaps your debts you do not pay;

And brings you care or misery,
Strike now the blow that sets you free!

Ways of Steering Boats In ENGLAND.
France and Germany.
A comparison of the different meth
DDS of doing what is practically the
same thing in various parts of the
world is both interesting and amusing
to the thoughtful observer, says Cas-
sier's Magazine. On American ferry
boats the import is well known of the
"ting-ting' or ''jiigle-jingle" of the bell
by which the man in the wheelhouse
communicates with his fellow-mortal
in the engine room. On the Thames.
however, it would be considered practi-
cally impossible to convey information
in this manner, and the captains of the
small paddle steamers on that stream
stand on the paddle-boxes and sing
out ease 'er!" Back 'er!" etc.
apparently to nobody in particular.
while these interesting remarks are
promptly repeated in shrill tones by a
small boy into speaking tube which
communicates with the lower regions,
On the Seine, in France, this process is
simplified and a large trumpet-shaped
mouthpiece flares out in front of the
man at the wheel and he yells his COM
mands into this funnel, the other end
of which is supposed to reach the en-
gineer. The large steamers on the
Rhine, in Germany, are controlled, not
by the usual wheel placed in the wheel
house forward, but by very large
wheel on vertical axis, placed right
amidships upon an elevated platform
or bridge, and several men pass the
handles from right to left, or upon &C.
casion trot round in a circle, and It
would doubtless be considered a serious
temptation of Providence, or at least a
reflection upon the fatherland, If any
one were to attempt to construct a
Rhine steamer with the ordinary form
of steering gear. .;.3 :.

"Well, the callers-all men-began
to arrive at about ten o'clock in the
morning, and kept it up all day.
cat noon my Charley called in a
huge omnibus, as was the custom
among the middle-class people in those
days-and brought with him seventeen
fellows. not one of whom had ever
seen before.
'This was another absurd test of
hospitality current at that time, and
very trying it was.
'For seventeen lusty strangers to
run amuck amid our already depleted
stock was of itself an aggravation, but
the quantities they ate and drank, in
honor Of 'Charley's girl, had an effect
far from pleasing, for some of the call

Charley.

'good-by' I shrunk from him in disgust.
He saw it. and it angered him. We

"Never! In a defiant mood he must
have drunk more and more. He had

were struck, he was arrested and

the paper next morning and my soul

letter of introduction from a mutual
friend in st. Louis.
The substance of it was:
"The girl is stagestruck. Can you
do anything for her?"
She was the most artificial thing 1

could sneeze naturally.
Have you had any stage expert
ence?"
"Only with amateurs
"Ah! Have you any money!"
She looked at me much as a we'll
posted countryman would gaze at a
"bunco steerer.'
My dear girl, I don't want your
money, but it might be to your advan-
tage to take a course in some good
training school, and that requires
cash."
Her nose went up.
"On, I don't wish anything like

principally from the manager, who
wants his rent guaranteed, and the
actors, who need their salaries We
are also overstocked with Juliets and
fairly reek with Rosalinds."
She rose impatiently.
Then you don't give me any en-

Not in that line; no."
you don't think l spoke well?"

"No. l should like an answer

She walked out, trembling with in

My heart warmed toward her, and I

She heaved a sigh.
"You were quite right" she said,
