DOMINION OF CANApA.
Ep1sTLEs TO ST. PAUL.

There Is one youngster in st. Paul. who.
II he fulfills the promise of his youth,
will be philosopher when he grows UP.
It Is the small son of Charles Kartak
AS the story goes the youngster had been
guilty Of some misdeeds, for which his
mother desired to inf1ict corporal pun
ishment Being warned by the prepara-
lions, the small boy crawled through
small hole under the barn, where he
spent the day in oramped enjoyment Of
the situation, while his mother tried with
alternate threats and promises to cajole
him from his retreat. When Mr.. Kartak
came home at night the situation was
explained to him.
'Ill bring the rascal out" he said, and
forthwith proceeded to wriggle himself
under the barn.
The urchin was crouched in further
corner and viewed the advent of his
father with some surprise.
as she after you, too?" he asked.
There was no whipping.
A story Is told by Paul Cazeneuve, re-
lating to visit to Montreal number
of years ago. Mr.. Cazeneuve plays "Gil
de Berault," the hero In Under the Red
Robe" which will be presented at the
Grand next week.
He sauntered into q cafe during an en-
tention was arrested by nervous little
man who hurriedly entered the place,
seated himself at a table next to Mr..
| Cazeneuve, and at the approach Of a
| waiter ordered cigar. 1t was brought
| him and for q moment he smoked In 81
lence. Cazeneuve noted that although
his neighbor said nothing, he gave every
| indication that he was keeping up ter
rible thinking. Soon he called for some
Brie cheese and a cup Of black coffee.
The waiter supposed, no doubt, that the
| man had been hurried away from his
dinner elsewhere and was accordingly
putting the finishing touches to his meal
at his leisure, when the fellow surprised
him, and, incidentally, everyone else in
the cafe within hearing by calling for
plate of ice cream. Cazeneuve looked
the new conner over closely, but beyond APP
pearing eccentric there was naught I'M
usual about him. After the Ice cream
had been eaten, hot roast with full &C
compartment Of vegetables was ordered.
To make a short story, this queer patron
of the cafe finished his meal by demon
alizing a bowl Of consomme, six oys-
tiers on the half shell, and wound UP with
O. cocktail The check for the repast
was furnished, which the consumer Of
this inverted dinner paid. He was about
| to leave the place as suddenly as he. had
entered it.; the waiter who had been act
| ing like man in trance while filling
the entire order could restrain himself
| no longer.
Excuse me, SIR he said in broken
English, "but you will crafty my Gu
riosity, know you will. Pray tell me
why you have ordered your dinner fore
| end last?''
The fellow glanced around the room
| quickly and then whispered: II have been
disciple Of Bellamy, and have decided
to go him one better; have been eating
backward"
There are some new conceptions Of
what constitutes slapderous matter in
the Juvenile circles of Dayton's bluff,
judglng from an incident that occurred
at the Sibley school few days ago.
One of the youngsters came into school
evidently broken-hearted and bawling at
n rate that seemed whole-soufed, yet I'M
satisfying.
whats the matter?" inquired his
teacher, solicitously.
''That boy (boo-hoo) called me bad
NAME" blubbered the little fellow, I'M
consoled
What did he call you?"
But this was too much. The youngster
declared that 1t would not bear repetition.
However, in order to punish the other
boy for any possible infraction of the
school discipline, a diligent inquiry was
necessary, and at last the lad blurted out
the terrible charge.
HE called me (boo-hoo)-he called me
Agernaldo.'
