HOW JEFFERSON PAINTED.

Some entertaining "reminiscences OF
Joseph Jefferson as a painter are con-
tributed by Frederic Remington. Mr..
Remington visited Jefferson in his
Florida studio some years before the
famous actors death and heard Mr..
Jefferson express some of his uncon-
ven.ional vi=ws on the art Of painting
Noticing a little shanty on the shore
of the gulf, for example, Mr.. Reming-
ton suggested that it would be a good
subject to paint.
"No-not now" said Mr.. jefferson.
"When?" queried Mr.. Remington, in
surprise.
"Oh, l shall paint that next year
some time, or possibly not in two
years." was the answer.
But you may not be here; besides,
think the house will rot down in
less time than that" said Mr.. Rem
jngton.
4 shall paint it as l see it when I
am not looking at it, my boy" was
.lefferson's answer.

PANTS AND TAILS.

"There's enc funny thing about
dogs said Mr.. Albert D. Prentiss. OF
Chicago. at the Hotel Joyce, and
that is that you never saw one pant
and wag his tail at the same time.
Carriage and Murphy admitted that
they didn't remember ever having
seen dog violate the stated rule.
"a dog" said Mr.. Prentiss, ''is not
capable of double emotion. He
can't growl and wag his tail. 1t is
impossible for him to be mad at one
md and hospitable at the other. II
dos is overjoyed to see his master
he will bark and wag his tail: if he
wants to get into the house he will
paw at the door, whine and wag his
tail. but they are all symptoms of the
enc emotion. But if his master opens
the door he will Immediately cease
to show anxiety by whining and will
resort only to the tail method of ex-
pressing his feelings. Watch a mans
eye to judge his temper watch a dogs
tail to get the state of his mind
But what's that got to do with the
price of prunes?" asked Carriage.
Nothing whatever" said Mr.. Prem
tiss, but it might affect sausage. -

Sold Handsome Pony.

There are several very handsome
ponies in Milford, and that of Postles
Hammond is especially handsome, he
having very stylish trap and russet
harness to set off coal black pony
with many fine marks. But, probably
the handsOmest marked pony ever in
Milford was purchased by David Net
ter, of Philadelphia, from Marshall
Townsend last Thursday. 1t was a
handsome roam four year old mare with
a white blanket back and white tail
mark. It was Of fine form, and Mr.
Meter is credited with the remark that
he would not take a hundred dollars
for his bargain. The price paid Mar
shall Townsend for the mare was 800,
and if she had been thoroughly broken
for children to drive, she would have
brought S125.
