Many are the strange bousehoid and garden adornments scattered up and d ■'.u the English countryside In a Sussex village is part of a garden paling made wholly out of the swords or swordhsl.es.

From garret to basement in the large botoe of a Leeds mineral water manufactnrer is a gigantic scrapbook, every notable theatrical poster of the last twenty years being pasted oa the walls. A north country banker living near Wakefield has a great dining room the whole of the wails of which axe the wooden and iron doors of eminent castles and historic buildings, and at Discard. 1e Cheshire, is a room that coats.as hundreds of picture frames made of every imaginable substance, from feather to tigers’ bones, one frame being placed within another according to slxe so ti.at the whole surface is covered with frames. In Liverpool is a room—that of a dentist whose grandfather occupied the same premises—that contains many mirrors and pictures the frames of which are made entirely of sharks’ teeth. Near Birmingham a manufacturer has a study that is lined, even to the roof, with nothing but chains of various thicknesses and padlocks of different sixes.—Pearson’s DON’T GET TOO FULL. A Lcsso.

"I think that I would leave them alone altogether,” was the reply. “They have too angry a buzz about them to win my confidence.” "You are not used to them, that’s all.’ said the bee man. ‘For example, these hires are full of honey, and if I puff a little smoke into the doors so ;:s to sort of suffocate the sentries I can topple a hive over, handle the bees like so many 1 eans. clean the honeycombs and carry them off The bees won t barm me,” And, to prove his words, the speaker performed bis experiment and came back to bis friend with a smile and several heavy combs of honey. If those hives bad been nearly empty.” said the apiarist, "I would have been lucky to have escaped with my life. The tenants of a poor hive sting to kllL” “That’s strange.” said the Visitor "I Siiouid think that they would defend their boards with especial jealousy, and the more they have the hotter they would tight.” "The reason Is,” said the beetnan, “that when alarmed the bees fly to their storehouse and gorge themselves. When full of hpney, a lee can’t bend Its body and sting." " hlch should tie a lesson to us," said the other "Don't get too full."— New York Tribune.
