A lady from Alexandria. Va, visiting

anecdote OF her retiring cook which is
good enough to be told again:
Myra, the colored cook, gave notice to
Mrs. Richardson Of her intention 10 leave
at the end OF the week. Mrs. r. highly
priced the cooks abilities in the culinary
line, and proceeded TO interview her in
an effort to learn the reason for her de-
parture The following conversation en-
sued:

wages and the home give you?"

INCIDENT OF STONE RIVER.
Battle i'm which Gums Were Thrown
Aside ana Fists Brought
Into Play

IN the battle of Stone river, the
Third Kentucky confederates charged
upon the Third Kentucky union, in
McCOok's division. These two regi.
ments were raised in the same county
and were consequently old friends,
neighbOTs and schoolmates, and now
about to meet for the first time as
er2mies, says the American Tribune.
As soon as they came near enough for
recognition they mutually ceased fir.
ing and began calling each other
names and swearing at each other in
a way that would have made the chap
lain's hair stand on end could he have
heard it; and all this time the battle
was roaring around them without a
great deal of attention from either
side. 1t was hard to tell which regi.
ment would come off victor in the
wordy contest.
At length, and as if by mutual CON
sent, they ceased swearing. and, grasp
ing their muskets, they charged into

BILLIARDS FOR WOMEN.
According to Shakespeare, Cleopatra
Played the Game.

According TO SbRkeSpcnrs,, Sieops&t1a
Played the Game.
In France gentleman is not ashamed
to take his wife to see Il professional
billiard game F'renchwomen are good
billiard players and like to see all the
fancy shots made by professionals as
soon as they begin to attract attention.
They read the billiard news in the
daily papers and subscribe to journals
published especially for billiardists.
According to Shakespeare, women have
played billiards from the time Of Cleo
patra. In 80 Il. c. he makes the Egyp-
tian queen summon CHAIRMAN to bill
lizards. Mary, queen of Scots, was pas
sionately fond Of the game. On the
evening preceding her execution she
wrote to the archbishop OF Glasgow
that her billiard table had been taken
away from her us preliminary step
to her punishment. The Empress 10.
sephine used to rouse Napoleon from
his gloomy moods by game OF bill
lizards. Adelina Patti became disgust
ed with her English table and had one
made in New York for which she paid
$500.
The efficacy of billiards as n health
restorar is beyond dispute. The mo-
tons gone through will reach every
part of the body and operate on the en-
tire system. They completely dispel
languor and that tired feeling" The
tension of the muscles is tested and the
blood sent in swifter circulation through
