The Anqler's Bait.

A well-known angler at Peterbor-
ough having obtained a wasps' nest
containing a large number Of grubs,
placed the nest in the kitchen oven
to kill the grubs so that he could use
them for bait.
The next morning he went to get
the grubs. but on opening the oven
door a swarm of wasps flew out. The
oven was not hot enough to kill the
grubs, but was sufficiently warm to
hatch them.-London Daily Mail.

Modern Morals.

William Dean Howells, at tea at
his apartment in Half Moon street,
said magazine editor who had just
returned from London, amused us all
with "reminiscences of New York cele-
brities.
Mr.. Howells hit off rather neatly a
notorious celebrity of Wall street.
"'When that man came to New York
in 49, he said, everything he pos
sessed was tied up in a bandana hand.
kerchief. Today
"Mr II. smiled and stroked his
close-clipped mustache.
To-day eevrything he possesses is
tied up In his wife's name.'"

True; but we have got several hun
