Impossible Friendships.

Almost all people, when one knows
them well enough, are interesting, but
there are a great many in ones circle
OF acquaintance that one can never
know well. Year after year goes on.
and we may never touch anything
really human and viviiying In them or
they in us-eXcept for mere outer
shell Of formal politeness, we do not
know them, though we may meet them
daily.
1t does not pay to try beyond a GER
tain point-neither gains anything.
They are not for your inner circle, nor
you for theirs. Aud there are others
who go through all the motions Of rec
ognition, yet who are intrinsically in
sincere. No matter how we may meet
them in the larger social life, these
have no place in the social life of the
home, no matter how gifted or bril-
liant, or how much sought by others or
how cordial seems their greeting to
you. Those who are really inslncere
can neither get nor give any good
thing-they cannot make for life in
any sense, but only for confusion and
the subtle loss of that fine spirit of
mutual trust that should be the very
basis of family living,--Lillie Hamll'
ton French, in Harper's Bazaar.

THE STAMP OF TRUTH.
A Nature Story About Monkey Who
Barked at a Cat.

Tn these days of nature.faking anec-
dotns the following, which bears the
stamp of truth, will be welcomed by
all animal lovers. A phonograph own.
er living near Cheat mountain, Ran.
dolDh county, w. Va, had two pets
of which he was very fond. One was
a Makaki monkey and the other a
large and fierce tempered cat of male
geider. The colored nanny" who
locked after the house detested the
monkey, but made a favorite of the
cat and gave 1t a large plate of food
every midday, the monkey receiving
nc. attention whatever from her. AS
the simian watched the cat eating
w'qile he went hungry, his brain de-
vsed the following clever scheme:
Placing a blank on the phonograph
he ran quickly into the neighboring
house and took a bone from the big,
savage dog who was gnawng it.
When he had recovered from his as.
tOnishment the dog pursued the thief
into the parlor where the phonograph
was and barked loudly. The monkey,
on the top of the bookcase, was Sc,
cure from harm. The old colored
woman, thinking the dog was after
her beloved grimalkin, chased him
out and did not see the cause of the
trouble or dream that the dog had
been making a first.class barking rec
ord.
! The following day nanny brought
the plate of food as usual and the cat
| began to eat. The old woman was no
sooner out of sight and hearing than
the monkey placed the record in the
machine and the air was filled with
the noise of angry barks. The cat on
hearing the voice Of her enemy ap
! parently I'm the some room emitted
one blood.curdllng screech, spranR
through the window and spent two
nights and n day at the top of the
large chestnut tree outside. Wher
/ the trick was finally discovered the
monkeys owner was so pleased that
he gave orders that the two animals
should be treated equally in the mat
ter of food. 1t is reported that he has
refused large sum of money for the
monkey. Full permission is given tC
those publishers desiring to incorpor
ate this anecdote in text books OF
natural history to be used in the pub
lie schools.

The Humor of the plplomats.

Occasionally, but not often, the love
of fun leads some one away from
courtesy, as when a prominent young
fellow introduced a former Chinese
minister to the colored man, whose
duty it was to serve a preparatory
cocktail, upstairs, to the dinner
guests. "AIr Minister said the
joker, "allow me TO present Mr.. -,
our own representative at Ijiji and
Zanzibar" The diplomat took the
presentation in good faith, and grasp
cd the true situation only when the
newly created minister, with u broad
grin, asked whether it should be a
manhattan or whisky and soda. But
this oriental was famous for his own
wit and usually came out about even
TO young debutante. who mischiev,
ously asked him if 1t were really true
that, he had five wives, he gracefully
responded that the advantages of such
a custom had not occurred to him
until after his arrival in the United
States. But, as was usually the case
with him, there was serpents tooth
behind even this soft answer.-Bohe
