Haydn's Unhappy Match.

Among the unhappiest marriages
ever recorded was that Of Haydn.
His wife was extravagsnt, scold
and utterly impossible as the spouse
of a musician. We are assured that
she indulged herself in fits Of rage
wherein she would destroy the mas
ters written musical scores, using
them to make curl'papers. Haydn
appears to have borne this state Of
affairs for about thirty-two years,
when he became exhausted. In
London he wrote q friend, my
wife, that Internal woman, has writ
ten me such horrible things that |
viii not return home."

Custom house stories are always
interesting. The hero Of this one,
q Swiss missionary, was returning
to Basle from South America, TAX
ing with him some skulls dis
covered in ancient Patagonian bury
ing places. At the frontier the au-
thoritiss insisted on inspecting his
trunk. They classified the skulls as
"bones of animals" and demanded
duty at the rate Of penny a pound.
The missionary protested, and it
was presently agreed that as the
skulls were for scientific purposes
they must be allowed to enter with
out payment.
The only question was how to
classify them for the purposes OF
the Swiss statistical bureau. This
problem was debated at great
length, but ultimately the skulls
went through as personal effects
already worn."-New York Sun.

THIS IS A BIG COUNTRY.

Far ~ Boston.
The ideas of foreigners regarding
the size and characteristics of this
country do not seem to grow less
amusing with age, and the state
ment that in London there are peo-
pie who think New York is a city
Of Indians is not 80 farfetched as
some consider it.
The writer met at Long Branch
last summer and Englishwoman,
and a cultured iinglishwoman at
that, who had gone there directly
after landing from steamer in
New York. Having casually men,
toned that was born in Brooklyn,
she remarked that she had met
some people named Henderson who
lived on Long Island and wondered
if l knew them. | asked in what
part of Long Island they I'D, and
she naively answered, = down

A young EnsIishmaH" hose co"s-
in is in the grain business in this
city came over to see his relative
and also to see something of the
country. One of the first places
suggested to him was Niagara falls,
and at train time the Englishman
presented himself minus ovcrcoat
and hand bag.
where's your grip7" asked his
cousin.
"Why, cant VIC run over and see
the falls and get back tonight"
he asked.
On being assured that he could
not he began asking questions re-
garding distances and ended with,
"How big is this state"
When he was told that it was
bigger than the whole of England
there were no fitting words to ex-
press his wonderment.
Another young Englishman came
to New York during a very warm
Indian summer. He spent week
there and then went on to Canada,
returning to New York in March
to embark for England.
He was asked the inevitable ques-
ton, 'How do you like America ?"
His answer was: otis nawsty
country. 'Arf the year you are
roasted, and the other 'arf you are
up to your waist in snow"
A New Yorker went to Brazil
last year to put in a few months on
one of the cattle ranges. One day
young Irishman rode into camp
to see the New Yorker, saying that
he had ridden forty miles to do so,
as he wished to inquire of him as to
the health of his brother, who left
Ireland ten years before and was
settled in New York city. There
was no question in his mind but
that the two would know each
other.

jects than are some natives. For
