prIuted the Wrong Portrait.

After Hon. Foster NJ. Voorhees, was
elected governor Of New Jersey the
rGual portraits Of him were published
in the newspapers. They made an in
teresting variety. In one instance an
enterprising journal drew upon it's
cabinet and used cut Of the presi-
dent of a small western university,
showing a young man with the hair
carefully parted and curled, and with
eyeglasses that stood prominently in
the picture. He looked about 20 years
of age and the face was smooth and
smiling. The governor had good
laugh over this particular picture as
well as over some Of the other inter-
esting variations of his countenance.
He is not an old man by any means,
being only 43, but he has the look of a
serious student and man Of affairs.
His home is in Elizabeth. n. J.

binary ravages of the European rab-
bits that were introduced into Aus
tralia years ago. The animals were
imported so that the British subjects
who had removed to the antipodes
might enjoy the sport of RABBIT hunt
ing. They had more sport than they
bargained for and the whole country
regrets the days the little animal was
introduced to Australian scenes. There
are many millions of them now and
tho little nibblers eat the grass, de-
stroy fields, orchards and gardens and
are the great nuisance Of the country.
The rewards offered by the various
colonies for some sure way Of destroy
ing the pest would make the fortune
of the man who should discover the
process. Today, however, the Aus
tralans appear to be little more re-
signed under the infliction. The idea

o.coNNELL's GOODNESS
Saved Many Lives Once in an Emer-
Cency.

Daniel O'Connell, the famous Irish
agitator and orator, had contempt
for physical danger. On certain oc-
sasion, as his only surviving son has
recently narrated in Temple Bar, a
meeting had been convened and large
crowd assembled in room on the first
floor of a building in a small city in
Ireland. O'Connell was about to ad-
dress the people when gentleman,
pale with fear, made his way to tho
platform and hoarsely whispered
"Liberator, the floor is giving way
The beams that shore 1t up are crack
ing, and we shall all fall through 1t In
a few minutes" Keep SILENT" said
OConnell;; then, raising his voice, he
addressed the assembly: II find that
the room Is too small to contain the
number who desire to come in, 30 we
must leave it and hold the meeting
outside the building" At this few
rose and went out, but the majority re-
tanned their seats. Then O'Connell
said: 81 will tell you the truth; you are
Irishmen, therefore brave men. The
floor is giving way and we must leave
this room at once. If there Is panic
and a rush to the door, we shall all be
precipitated into the roof below, but If
you obey my orders we shall be saved.
Let the twelve men nearest the door
go quietly out, then the next twelve,
and SO on until all have gone. shall
be the last to leave" His instructions
were obeyed to the letter, and he wait
ed, patient, and calm, till all had gone
out in safety. Then he walked quietly
across the sundering, cracking floor,
reaching the door just as the shattered
beams gave way. And thus, by the
force of his strong will, terrible acct
dent was averted.-Memphis Scimitar.

The town was Stow Market, a place

The rest of that honorable body re-

TahIa Decorations.

Fairy lamps are used effectively with
some decorations. A harp-shaped one
of red poinsettia, provided with a cir
cular flower piece below, is sometimes
used to frame a circular plate glass
mirror. Another decoration sug'
gested by florist might consist of a
fairy lamp.set in the midst OF a bank
of pink roses and ferns, the three
arched pieces being brought over the
lamp and united in one piece to sup
port scattering cluster Of roses and
asparagus. The arches themselves
should be trimmed with the feathery
asparagus, with here and there pink
rosebud interviewer with the green.

damp moss or cotton, in which are
placed tulips or lilies of the valley,

Lilies of the valley make very
pretty decoration massed simply in a

feathery fern rising at one side Of the
box aud backed by tall bow OF green
ribbon, at the base of which are some
roses and rosebuds, gives an original
touch to the whole.

The JAMS Regard for the Fox.

All over Japan you will see images
of foxes-old foxes, with their noses
Clipped and their ears broken off;
older foxes still, with a growth Of
moss on their backs; sly, alert, foxes,
with noses perked smartly in the air;
great foxes and little foxes, sages and
clowns, all kinds and degrees-show-
ing the prevalence Of this belief in
the land Of the wistaria and the far,
and also showing in what respect the
fox is held, says traveller. 1t is curl
GUS to note that In all countries the
fox above all other animals has been
considered to exert great influence and
power. All nations have legends of
which the cunning and intelligence OF
the fox is the theme.

Cleaning Walls.

The very best material to clean wall
paper and fresco, painted or kalso-
mined walls is stale rye bread. This
bread is used in preference to any
thing else by artists to clean drawings
in charcoal. There are manufactured
wall cleaners which do this work very
well, but they do the work no better
than the old-fashioned bread cleaner.
Wheat bread that is two or three days
old will do tie work almost as we'll as
the rye bread, which is sold for the
purpose.
