Not What Was Meant.

A certain doctor, who is, on his own frank admission, "the ugliest man in four countless" has keen sense of humor which enables him to enjoy many real and unconscious reflections upon his facial deficiencies
 Once, after he had arrived too late to succor a poor woman who had been killed in a factory, the local newspa- per published an ambiguous account of the case, which the doctor, with grim appreciation. preserved.
 Having first described how the wo- man had come by her injuries. the paragraph went on to say:
 Strong hopes were entertained of saving her life until Dr. P- arrived, but these hopes unfortunately proved i'll founded, for the moment the doctor showed his face within the door the poor woman fell back with a gasp and expired."-Philadelphia Ledger.

HE POSES IN THE ALPS.
The "Dear old Shepherd" Who Does
 1t For a Consideration.

Tho "Dear Old Shepherd" Who Does
 It For a Consideration.
 Nearly every adventurer upon the Alps nowadays carries camera. It is a sign of the times. People have become obsessed with the importance if realities, and the camera is the only possible agent to enable you to show realities to your friends. It is not of much use to tell them about some strange sight or of some curious con- fomation of nature you may have met in your climb. You must show 1t to them.
 A feature of the Alps today is the number of worthies who earn their bread by means of the camera. There is an old man at Grindelwald, for 1n- stance, who makes quite comforta- ble competency by standing in front of his chalet when visitors laden with cameras are coming up the side of the mountain and blowing upon tre- mendous horn.
 "How very quaint! eXclaims the unsuspecting tourist. "The dear old shepherd is calling home the cows" The dear old shepherd, however, is man of sound business principles. He doesn't drag his antiquated instru- ment about his house for the fun of the thing. Neither does he perform upon it for the benefit of his fiocks and herds, for he owns none. But he will tell you frankly, when you ask him to stand quite still," that he will very willingly pose in whatever man. ner you like, but you must first pay him couple of francs for his trouble. That old man is probably the best known character in the Grisons and the hero of many local tales.-Wide World Magazine.

Trick of the Orator.

Disraeli, whose eloquence Lord Cur zon ranks below that of Gladstone. tried hard to give his hearers the i'm pression that he was not in the habit of preparing his speeches. Discussing Plunket's oratory with Disraeli, Lord Granville remarked that the Irish statesman hesitated SO long for a word that he seemed to be on the point of breaking down. Lord bless your! Disraeli exclaimed. Did that take you in? Why, that is part of the trick. 1 have often done it to make 1t appear that my speech has not been prepared. Chronicle.

BUTT AND HIS BANKNOTES.
Isaac Was a Great Orator, but Was
 Careless With Money.

CdFeIeSS Witn MOHey'
 Some amusing anecdotes are told of Isaac Butt, the famous Irish orator, in 'The Life of Old Dublin," by Mir. James Collins. The author recalls the fact that Butt was very careless in re- gard to money and repeats a reminis- cence which he heard from the late Judge Adams:
 "Poor Isaac Butt was man of splendid genius, but, as all the world knew, careless to the last degree in money matters. I was in Youghal when the election petition was tried there, and Butt was counsel for MT. Weguelin. At the close of the trial MT. Butt was handed his check, run ming to several hundred pounds. The moment he got it he went over to one of the banks and cashed it.
 Butt was staying at the house of a Youghal gentleman, and in the morn ing he put his hand in his pocket and found the money was gone I shall never forget the hullabaloo that fol- lowed. Consternation, suspicion. bed lam swept through the house. And in the middle of it all, just as the police were being summoned, the young son of the house turned up with the miss ing banknotes.
 Tt had been a windy night, the win dow shook in the loose frame, and Butt. annoyed by the noise. got up, stuffed the first wad of paper he could find between the frame and the case ment, went to bed again and forgot all about it."
