The Expense of q Wifo.

A wife is decided addition to the demands upon ones purse. In that sense, however sensible and managing she may be, she is expensive. But everything worth having has its price of one sort or another, and there are some things which cost much without which life is hardly worth living.
 Said Thiers: Most men contemplate making some self denial when they marry. They think they will give up such and such expensive pleasures. Later on, when they discover that they cannot do so, and at the same time they lack the means to indulge, they complain that it is the extravaganza of their wives which causes the 1ncon- venience."
 Which wise saying is applicable to men in other countries besides that of France.-New York American.

1hackeray's Satire,

Thackeray created quite erroneous Impressions of himself by often indulg- ing in irony in the presence of people who were incapable of understanding 1t. One curious inst nee which he gave was this: Thackeray had been dining at the Garrick and was talking in the smoking room after dinner with yari- ouS club acquaintances. One of them happening to have left his cigar case at nome. Iiiackeray. though ing the man. who was a notorious tuft hunter. good uaturedly offered him one of his cigars The man accepted the cigar, but, not finding 1t to his liking. had the bad taste to say to Thack ckeray. Il say, Thackeray. you won't mind my saying l don't think much of this cigar: Th4ckeray. no doubt irritated at the mans ungraciousness and bear ing ip mind his tuft hunting prediec-
 lonS. quietly responded. You ought to, my good fellow. for it was given me by lord" Instead, however, of detecting the irony, the dolt immedi- ately attributed the remark to snob- bishness on Thackeray's part and to the end of his days went about declar- ing that "Thackeray had boasted that he had been given cigar by lord"

TIE sCQLD'S BRIDLE.
Brutal Puaishment to Which Woner
 Were Once Subjected.

Brutal Punisfment to W1;ch Women
 Were Once Subjected.
 The prank, or scolds bridle, or gos- sips bridle, was neither more nor less than a muzZle. 1t was in general use in Great Britain from the sixteenth to the eighteenth century, and in Scot land as well women were muzzled for certain offenses, some at least of them more imaginary than real. The 1nstru- ment of torture, even a dogs leather muzzle, is uncomfortable. How much more the scolds muzzle! It consisted, according to high authority, MT. w. levitt, of kind of crown or frame. work of iron, which was locked upon the head, and it was armed in front with gag, plate or sharp cutting knife or point, which was placed in the poor woman's mouth so as to prevent her moving her tongue, or 1t was so placed that if she did move it or at- tempt to speak it was cut in most frightful manner. With this cage up on her head and with the gag firmly pressed and locked against her tongue the miserable creature, whose sole of. lending perhaps was that she raised her voice in defense of her social rights against a brutal and besotted husband or had spoken honest truth of some one high in office in her town, was paraded through the streets, led by a chain by the hand of bellman the beadle or the constable or chained to the pillory, the whipping post or market cross. to be subjected to every conceivable insult and degradation, without even the power left her of asking for mercy or of promising amendment for the future, and when the punishment was over she was turned out from the town hall or the place where the brutal punishment i had been inflicted, maimed, disigured. bleeding, faint and degraded, to be the subject of comment and jeering among her eighbors.-London Family Her. ald

CoIors of the Stars.

Although there is no relation ap- parent between the two phenomena, yet 1t is interesting to recall the fact that among the stars certain colors ap- pear to characterize different stages of change, or evolution. Red stars. ac- cording to the testimony of the spec troscope, differ widely in their consti- tuition from white or yellow ones. and 1t has been thought that varying col ors may give clew to progressive changes in the heavenly bodies. Sirius. for instance, is said to have changed from red to white, and some have sus- pected that Arcturus Is fading from red toward yellow.

Edmund Kean was playing in "Rich- ard Ill.," and the part of Catesby had to be taken by low comedian, who sauntered on to the stage at the wrong moment and uttered the famous words, "My lord, the Duke of Buck ingham is taken" in the wrong place.
 Edmund clinched his fists in rage but otherwise took no notice of the re- mark
 Later the comedian repeated the words in the right place, and when the king expressed surprise at the news Catesby folded his arms, walked boldly down the stage and remarked to the great actor in loud tones:

Kafirs, North American Indians and the fat boy in "Pickwick" may well be quoted as fearful examples of vo- racity, but even their grastronomic feats are exceeded by the full grown Eskimo, who will daily eat twenty pounds of flesh and oil if he has the chance, while on the authority of Ad- miral Saritcheff Yakut of Siberia has been known to consume in twenty-four hours "the hind quarter of large OK, twenty pounds of fat and a quantity of melted butter for his drink"
