Profanity in Conversation.

Suppose some seemingly sanctified
nersun should go around the streets ut
tering audible prayers in the hearing
Of other people and mixing them up
with his conversation, says the Doug
las (Kan.) Tribune. People would call
him crazy and would look for an eX-
cuse for sending him to an asylum.
4 ne general opinion would be that he
was daffy. And yet there are fellows
by the dozen who in public and private
mix senseless oaths and causeless pro-
family with their conversation. Why
should the man whose seeming deyo-
ton to Divinity exceeds good sense and
propriety he graded as a lunatic while
the numerous fellow who is given to
c~auseless cussing be regarded as all
right, only a little rough in his talk?

tells, he has either had the bedstead
removed from his sleeping apartment
or else has relegated it to some re-
mote corner so as to enable him
to sleep in the exact center of the
room on a couple of huge cushions
or soft oriental mattresses stretched
upon the floor.
And Just behind The cushion upon
which his head rests there is always
a small table, upon which are five por-
traits. The center one is of himself,
1t is hanked on either side by those
of King Edward and Queen Alex
andra, while beyond them on either
side are the pictures of the emperor
and empress of Russia. These por-
traits accompany him everywhere, and
may be said to watch owe his SUM

WITH GEMS IN THEM
Pretty Story of Some Rich Finds Re
lated by q Pi%scatorial
Narrator.

'One might as well say that fish in
clude pearls" was the retort made by
a Woolwich magistrate to a travelling
purveyo" of pills who sought to con-
vince him that he did not require a
peddler's certificate to vend his wares,
seeing that they were made from gen.
tian, and as such came under the ex-
copied head of vegetables" We are
not anxious to open up a controversy
either botanical or geological. says the
Dundee Advertiser. but we rather
think the Woolwich justice would
have revised the dictum ne employed
to ConIute the itinerant pill merchant
had he read the interesting news
which a Bristol correspondent has
purveyed 10 the London press. All
the anglers of the pretty village of
Portishead. at the mouth of the Avon,
are to be seen daily at the dock at
present eagerly casting their lines IN
the hope of securing a fish containing
a gem of marketable value. And these
good folk have solid reasons for the
expectancy that fills their breasts.
Lately. we are told. a good-sized fish
was landed, and when it came to be
dissected on the domestic table it was
found to "include" a diamond ring de
cl8red to be worth from &25 to $50.
So. on the principle that what has
been may be, the Portishead anglers
are row in constant attendance al
their dock. The story is a pretty one,
and IS told with all the charming
n~aivette of the p~iscatorial narrator.
"AnelIng.' writes Isaak Walton in his
quaint way, lis something like poetry
men are to be BORN So 1t is also
like poetry in the wonderful way in
which it stimulates the imagination
and exalts the hopes. We in Scotland.
however. sad to relate, seem to come
less under its inspiring influence than

TO TRAP WOLF AND BEAR.
Pig and Sheep the Attractive Bait
Used to Ensnare the
Invaders.

The increase in the number of bears
and wolves in the upper peninsula and
hat of the wolf bounty provided for
by The legislature has stimulated some
of the old hunters Of the lower PENN
sula. who hunted bear and wolf"
south of the straits, to cross the chan
mel and bait for them there. An old
method of trapping will be employed.
says the Stephenson (Mich.) Journal.
The plan is to build two trap pens,
one for bears, the other for wolves.
In the first a pig will be used for bait
and the bear watched for and dosed
with lead before he can reach the
pork. it being claimed that a clear
nosed bear, free from catarrh, can
smell a pig four miles and will leave
any other scent and go after h pig,
which is a great dainty for the bear
palate.
In the wolf trap sheep will play the
part of tempter. The pen is built
smallest at the top, nigh enough to re-
strain the sheep and low enough to
admit the wolf. There is an opening
at the apex. large enough for the wolf
to Jump through when he to
get acquainted with the sheep and
take a midnight lunch with him.
When the wolf is in, he surveys the
dining room and tries to make sure
that he can get out where he came in
before beginning the banquet. AS sooE
as he finds that he cannot he loses his
appetite and the hunter finds him in
the morning.

Ha'pennies and Farthings in Australia

Half pennies are very scarce in
Australia. so much so that an attempt
once made in Melbourne to run a half
penny evening paper soon failed be-
cause people had not the coin where
with to purchase it. And if halfpence
are rare, farthings are curiosities. A
shrewd Melbourne sh~op-keeper has
imported some thousands of bright
new King Edward farthings, and he
is reported to be doing a roaring
trade. They are piled up in heaps in
his windows and attract gaping
crowds. Every article he sells is so
much ana three farthings.-London

Our readers should keep their
weather eye open for fakirs and
swindlers, they are numerous and
work every scheme to catch people.
The latest swindle, worked by a
sharper in one of the cities recently,
is an apt illustration of the ability of
these dead beat fakirs to catch not
only the ignorant but all others who
are not constantly on their guard.
This swindler walked into a jewelry
store and selecting $125 watch, left
a check for 5000 drawn on an out of
town bank, with instructions that the
watch be regulated and that he would
come after it and his change a week
later. On returning he was informed
that his check was no good. well,
that's strange" he said, Its the sec
ond time the bank has done that thing
on me. But here's the money for
your watch" and he counted out $12J
in currency and started for the door
ooh, yes" he said, turning around
you'd better give me that check
1t was willingly handed over to him
On the back was the jewelers. en-
dorsement With this the man went
into a bank, got it cashed and wa:

bowed to his genius but the recent

mel~dramas, musical plays, etc, has
induced managers TO give that sort
of mental pabulum to their audiences
and the works of the Divine Bard
have been neglected, much to the re-
