Artistic EnveIope LInInas.

Casting about him for some new
object to decorate, the imp of extrava-

colored paper have long been in COM

but never before found favor in Amer

with satin, the part which is exposed
on tearing them open being hand

bake party at Winsted, Connecticut.
stood beside a barrel of clans which
was partially covered. In taking some
matches from his trousers pocket, he
pulled out a IS gold piece, which
dropped into the barrel. The barrel
was emptied but no coin was to be
found. In due course of time the
clans, after being washed, were
placed in a steamer with other sea
food. When the man who lost the
gold piece got his portion of clans he
found his lost coin reposing in she'll

Once upon time there was a bold
bad man whose whole life was an
exercise in revolt. When he entered
a shop or establishment with swing
doors, one Of which was lettered
Pull" and the other PUSH" he
pushed the one which he should have
pulled, and on leaving he pulled the
one which he should have pushed.
Wherever it was forbidden he walked
on the grass and threw orange-peel
on the pavement. He smoked in the
subway. On railway Journeys he put
heavy articles on the hat-rack and
his feet on the opposite seat, and got
out before the car stopped. Yet when
he came to die he had just as nice a
tombstone as anybody else.
