SOME ARE HARD TO PLBASE. A I’l oil! MtlHh* Teacher Who Didn’t Cure Much About Eatlnff* "A pious lady down south had a husband who was rich, but an atheist,” says the New York Tribune. “A conference of ministers was beinz held In the town near this Colonel B.’s fine plantation, and Mrs. 8., when she started in the morning to attend the conference, told her hatband that she would like to bring hack a lot of the holy men to dinner with her in the evening. She thought secretly that they might convert the Colonel. He agreed to Welcome them and Mrs. B. ordered the cook to prepare a dinner accordingly. “After she had gone the Colonel asked the cook what Mrs. B. had ordered. He found that one turkey was all that she had thought necessary and his big southern hospitality was shocked at the idea. He did not like preachers as a class, but If they were to eat at his table at all then they should be treated in away to do credit to the plantation and the family. Accordingly he ordered ducks, geese, chickens, pigeon, turtle, lamb, mutton, beef, veal, pork, ovsters and trout, besides the turkey. He ordered vegetables and pastry In proportion, and by the time it was all on the great table, set out with the family silver, there was almost enough for forty preachers. “Presently the Colonel’s wife returned and with her was only one little, wizened, long-haired, freckled young man. She introduced it tothe big Colonel, who could only gasp, •Is that all, Claribel?’ ‘All the preachers I found had previous engagements,’ whispered his wife in a disappointed tone, ‘but this young man is a music teacher, who led. the choir at the convention. He is very pious and gives promise of great things. 1 hope you won’t use anv bad language while he M is here, Colonel.’ ‘•Well, they sat down to the loaded table, the Colonel, his wife, the organ player, and the Colonel’s son Rob, aged 13, sturdy, violent, untamed, a careful observer of his father’s wavs, and gleaner of his father’s oaths, a constant source of worry to his mother, and the idol and king of every negro on the plantation. “ ‘Will you have some turtle soup, sir?’ asked the genial Colonel, beaming with pleasure as the darkies removed the covers. “‘No, thanks,’replied the organplayer. ‘I never take soup.’ “ ‘Some oyster then 9 , “Same answer. “ ‘Trout?’ “ ‘No, thanks.’ “•Pigeon?’ “ ‘Never eat pigeon, thank you.’ “ ‘Lamb?’ “Same answer. “The Colonel’s smile disappeared, and he began to look troubled. ‘Beef then” he said. “Same answer. “‘This veal,’said the host pleadingly, ‘is excellent —my own raising. Try some?’ “•I never eat veal, thank you.’ “ ‘Turkey?’ “Same answer. ‘•‘Duck?’ “ ‘No, thanks.’ “ ‘Goose?’ “ ‘Not any.’ • “Only the pork was left now, and the Colonel was in despair. What sort of a man was this, anyway? What did he eat? The thoroughly disappointed Colonel was Just about to offer the last dish when his son Rob, who had beea .listening with open-mouthed wondjer to all these refusals of the good things of this earth until he could hold himself no longer, blurted out: “ ‘Say, pop, p’raps the durned lit. tie snipe would suck an egg.’ ” — Modified Prescription. Mr. Oscanyan, io his book, “The Sultan and his Peoiile,” says that a Turkish physician Was called to visit a man who was very ill of typhus fever. The doctor considered the case hopeless, but prescribed for the paand took his leave. The next day, in passing by, he inquired of a servant at the door if bis master was dead. “Dead!” was the reply; “no, he is much better.” The doctor hastened up-stairs to obtain the solution of the miracle. “Why,” said the convalescent, “1 was consumed with thirst, and I drank a pailful of the juice of pickled cabbage. “Wonderful” quoth the doctor; and out came the tablets, on which he made this inscription: “Cured of typhus fever, Mehemed Agha, an upholsterer, by drinking a pailful of pickled cabbage juice.” Soon after, the doctor was called to another patient, a yaghlikgee, or dealer in embroidered handkerchiefs, who was suffering from the same malady. He forthwith prescribed “a pailful of pickled cabbage juke.” On calling the next day to congratulate his patient on his recovery, he was astonished to be told that the man was dead.. In hjs bewilderment at these phenomena, he came to the safe conclusion, and duly noted it in his memoranda, that “Althqugh in cases of typhus fever pickled cabbage juice is an efficient remedy, it is not to be used unless the patient be by pro fes. ston an upholsterer. Skunk ’Round Her Neck. Womeuln the hight of the fashion wear any little rodent tnat will reach around the neck. The longer and more attenuated it is the better. The little beast, ground squirrel or mouse, or, It must be said, skunk, is kept to resemble as nearly life as possible. Its perishable frame is gone, but it has its head, its four little feet and tail. It is worn by crossing its little paws above its head, and its shining eyes gaze in a fairly animated manner on the pageant of the street or theater. At the theater a sumtuous person had the eyes of her sable tippet replaced by diamonds that | sparkled and flashed, and the little head seemed to be fairly revelling in the enjoyment of the play.—New York Sun. e . I We have noticed that it is always the girl with the prettiest name who marries a man with such an ugly name that the legislature should be called upon to change it. - ’

Origin of Popular Phrases. ir ßit M A nftfii© quite commonly given in the West and South before the late war, to the American dime. It arose from the custom forty years ago, when Spanish coins freely circulated m this country, of calling one of them's small piece valued at 12i cents, a "bit.” i If the pillars on the face of it were fresh and unworn, it was called a "long bit ” but if worn smooth it was designated as a “short bit,” and was worth but 10 cents. The word “bit," as aplied to the American dime, was rendered obsolete by the disappearance of silver money during the rebellion. “Where Ignorance is Bliss," Etc.— Thomas Gray (the author of “Gray’s Elegy”), in his poem "On a Distant Prospect of Eton College," stanza ten, wrote: , vii No more; whereignorance Is bliss ’Tie folly to be wise. “There is no Royal Rood to Learning.’’—Thia phrase appears to have gr iwn up like other common proverbs out of the experience of the thoughful. One of its earliest form is in Gray’s "Fable of the Pack-horse and Carrier." Learning by study must be won, Twas ne’er entailed from sire to son. "Yankee Doodle.”—The air known as ■Yankee Doodle” was originally “Nankee Doodle,” and as old as the reign of Charles 11. It was known in New England before the revolution, and one account of its appropriation in America as a National air is that after the battle of Lexington the brigade under Lord Percy marchod out of Boston playing it in derisive allusion to the then popular nickname of the New Englanders, and that afterward the New Englanders, saying that the British troops had been made to dance to “Yankee Doodle,” adopted the air as they hud adopted the nickname. The verses sung to the tune since the days of the revolution were composed by Dr. Shackburg, a physician in the British army in America, in burlesque of a body of American militia. The citizens of the United States do not now recognize the air ’ “Yankee Doodle,” but “Hail Columbia” as their National air. “OJimminy!”—This common interjectional remark is a corruption of “O Gemini,” a Lation invocation to the di--1 vine brothers, Castor and Pollux. “Look Ere Thou Leap, See Ere Thon ■ Go."—This quotation may be found in • Heywood’s Proverbs, 15-46; Tollett’s ■ Miscellany,' 1557, and Tusser’s Five ' Hundred Points of Good Husbandry. ' A similar quotation, “Look before you ere you leap,”is found in Butler’s Hudibras. The Judicious Wife. A judicious wife, says Ruskin, is al- . ways nipping off from under her husband’s moral nature little twigs that are growing in wrong directions. She keeps him in shape by continued pruning. If you say anything silly she will affectionately tell you so. If you declare you will do some absurd thing she will find some means of preventing you from doing it. And by far the chief part of all the common sense there is in this world belongs unques- ■ tionably to woman. The wisest things i man commonly does are those which his wife counsels him to do. A wife is a grand wielder of the moral pruning - knife. If Johnson’s wife had lived there . would have been no hoarding up of orange peel, no touching all the posts in walking along the streets, no eating and drinking with disgusting voracity. If Oliver Goldsmith had been married, he never would have worn that memorable and ridiculous coat. Whenever you find a man whom you know but little about oddly dressed, or talkj ing absurdly, or exhibiting eccentricity • of manner, you may be sure that he is ? not a married man, for the corners are rounded off, the little shoots pared away, in married men. Wives have gen- “ erally much more sense than their hus--1 bands, even though they may be clever 1 men. The wife’s advice is like the bal- ’ last that keeps the ship steady. 1 ' It Is too plain to need a demonstration by chart or diagram that Dr. Bull’s Cough . Syrup Is what the people need everywhere, for cure of bronchial and pectoral troubles. It is a sure cure. Bless Them! 2 Hojack—Statistics show that the averI age.height of an American woman is two ; Inches greater than it was twenty-five . years ago. j Tomdik—Yes, they come higher, but ' we must have them.—New York Sun.

The Worn In the Chestnuts. A Pittsburgh physician explains how the worm gets into the chestnut. When the nut is still green an Insect comes along, and. hunting a warm place In which to have its eggs hatched, lights upon the green chestnut and stings ftAt the same time it deposits some of its eggs in the opening thus made. The chestnut begins to ripen and at the same time the egga are hatching. The insect selects chestnuts as a place for depositing its eggs as being the best adapted place by instinct. The floury matter In the nut turns to sugar, and sugar contains carbon, which produces heat. Them iz more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly falling to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo. Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken Internally in doses from ten drops to a teaspoonful. It acts directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the systdin.

A Maori whoso requests for blankets had at last elicited a decided refusal from the missionary, exclaimed: "Kapai igood); no more blankets, no more hallelujahs,” and thereupon returned to the faith of his fathers. No less hutnordus, though in another way, was the plea of a Maori in litigation for a( piece of land. Being called on to tell the court on what proof be relied for his title, he pointed to the revival claimant and said simply: “I ate his father.” A Christmas Present trom Dr. Talmage. Db. Talmaob, who has a genius for doing things on a gigantic scale, recently placed the largest book order ever recorded. It was for 100.000 beautiful Oxford Teachebs’ Bibles, fresh from the Oxford University Press of England, each Bible containing 1,450 pages, bound in leather. Divinity Circuit, gilt edges, and round corners. With these 100,000 Bibles it is the intention of Dr. Talmage to make 100,000 hearts happy by making a Christmas present to each new subscriber to The Christian Hebald at $2. Db. Talmage is editor of The Christian Herald, which is issued every Wednesday, and it is needless to sav that it is edited in his happiest vein. It is filled with bright pictures and every issue contains a eharming piece of musio contributed by Ira D. Sankey. The orders for The Christian Hebald, since Db. Talmage’s Christmas present was first mentioned by the press, are pouring in bv mail, telegraph, and express at such a tremendous rate that it is quite evident that the supply will give out before the end of the present month. Each one of these Bibles contains a Concordance.. SubjectIndex, 12 beautiful Colored Maps, and a great quantity to a proper interpretation of the Holy Scriptures.
