Sojourner Truths Sense.

The late Theodore Tilton, who had
never had pipe, cigar, or cigarette in
his mouth. used to declare that the most
inveterate smoker he ever knew was
Soiourner Truth, the famous freedwom-
an reformer and lecturer. He was wont
to tell how one day when the venerable
dame, then about 90 years old, was on
a visit to his home, she sat smoking her
pipe by the chimney corner, when
George W. Bungay, the author Of sew
eral eloquent anti-tobaeco tracts, called
to see her.
Aunt Soiourner," he said, II revere
your character, but | deplore your smok-
ing, for it will keep you forever out of
heaven"
"Lawkes. honey, how so?' she asked.
Because, Aunty," he rejoined, ''you
know that. according to the Good Book,
nothing entereth there that defileth.
Now. how do you expect to get into hea-
ven with your breath defiled by tobac-
cor"
"Lawkes. honey" answered the old
negress, when / go to heaven, l 'spect

Porter's Quick Wit.

Not long ago enc of the chiefs of the
paid officials-the general manager. so
it is said-of a certain important railway
alighted at little junction station away
in the heart of the country. The rail-
way dignitary was returning alone from
a fishing expedition, and was well bur
dened with luggage of various kinds.
The porter at this station proved a
perfect paragon and waited upon the
traveller with the utmost possible polite
ness. He Immediately gathered together
all the travellers traps and said that he
would look after them well until the de-
parture of the branch train, when he
would see that they were duly handed
over TO their owner.
Impressed with the porter's aacrity
and courtesy, the general manager hand
ed him fairly good tip, which was ae-
cepted with expressions of gratitude and
evident pleasure. After a little while
the official went up to the porter and in
troduced a conversation.
i say, my man, do you happen to
know who | am? he inquired.
Indeed. / don't sir; | haven't the
slightest idea,' was the ready reply.
We'll. I'm the general manager Of
this railway, and l suppose you know
that there's an order in your book which
speaks in the plainest possible terms
against taking tips from passengers.
Begging your pardon, sir" responded
the quick witted porter, 'it says we are
not to take gratuities from the public,
but there's nothing in the rule book at
all against our taking such a gift from
fellow servant. "-Exchange

Game in Maine Abundant.

According to the reports of the people
who have been in the woods during the
summer wardens. guides, surveyors and
rusticators, game is just as aboundant as
ever. 1t seems to have moved around
about the same as usual. more being
seen in some places than ever before.
and less in others, just according to the
way the deer and moose move to change
their feeding grounds. Many more
moose than deer have been seen in soms
places One party which made the east
branch trip saw fifty moose and got pic
lures of nearly all of them. but saw
comparatively few deer. One thing
which would tend to lessen the amount
of game seen this summer is the unusu-
ally wet weather, which kept the
swamps full of water so that the game
was not forced TO come out to the lakes
and streams to drink. Duck shooting has
already begun. Monday being the tirss
day OF open season, and the gunners
along the coast are having fairly good
snort with the birds. OF course the
ducks and geese lave not begun to come
from the north yet, aud it will be some
weeks before they strik the Maine feed
ing grounds in large numbers. --kenne

Shaking Him Up.

A young married lady one morning
gave her husband sealed letter, which
he was to read when he got to the office.
He did so, and the letter ran as follows:
Il am obliged to tell you something
that may give you pain, but there is no
help for it. You shall know everything.
whatever be the consequences. For the
last week l have felt that it must come
TO this, but | have waited until the last
extremity, and can remain silent no
longer. Do not overwhelm me with bit
ter reproach, for you will have TO put up
with your share of the trouble as well
as myself"
Cold perspiration stood in thick drops
on the brow of the husband, who was
prepared for the worst
Tremblingly he read on:
Our coal is all gone. Please order a
ton to be sent this afternoon. l thought
you might forget it for the tenth time,
and therefore wrote you this letter"
But he didn't forget that time.-Tit-

Rats and the Plague.

1t is now an accepted fact by bacteri-
ologists and other authorities in India
that future efforts 10 stay the rayages of
the plague must first and foremost be
concentrated upon the determination of
the rats. What gigantic-one might
almost wiite superhuman-task this will
be any one who has the slightest ac-
quaintance with India will realize. Cal
cutta, Bombay. Poona, and indeed. every
town and village from north TO south
and from east 10 west. swarm with rats
which multiply at an alarming rate.
Much may be done, of course, in the
erection of new buildings to see that
these are as rat-proof as human skill
and ingenuity can make them. and this
is something that is being impressed
most carefully upon every local building
authority in the dependency at the pres
ent time.-LopaNn Telegraph.

Even in Spain or Austria, those lands
of mighty territorial potentates, it would
not be easy to find baby born to so
much wealth and magnificence as will
probably one day be owned by Lord
Grosvenor, thc -half-year son
ami ileir of the Duke and Duchess of
Westminster. The infant earl is heir
to the richest estate in land in The king
dom. Not the largest, but the most
valuable, for, besides this 10000 acres in
Cheshire and Flint there are 500 acres
in London, including the wealthiest parts
of Mayfair and Belgrayia.7 The Duke
of Westminster London property is
steadily increasing in value, and it is
said-but possibly with some exaggera-
tion-to bring in an income of nearly
$4,000 day. And the ground upon
which the Mayfair and Belgravia of to-
day stand came to the duke from his an
cestor marrying farmers daughter at
Ebury. This farmer was named Davis,
and his cows used to Craze in the fields
which are now Grosvenor square and
Belgrave square.
