All bli board were anxious to roach a port iii time for Christmas, but tho holi day found thom still off tho 'Naviga tor islands. Worst bf all, they liad shipped asea that carried away tho hencoop containing a few chickens. When tho cook saw tho Christmas dinner floating in the leo scupjiers und in danger of going overboard, he modo a gallant chargo down tho slippery, sloping dook to recover it, but at that moment a groat wavo roso high ovor tho bulwarks, broko with resistless fury on tho very spot whore ho stood, and when it subsided cook and chickens had both dislip* poured. This unfortunate accident lof t tho crow not only without i\ Christmas dinner, but without any ono to pre paro no ordinary meal. The sailors were heartily sick of "hardtack" and remembered with longing tho fa mous pl uni pudding of morry Eng land. They determined that soino how they must have a Christmas pudding and drew lota us to who should bs tho cook. Tho choice fell on tho boatswain's mab?, a brawny son of tho Emerald Isle. In tho galley ho found an old cookbook. Thia he solemnly pored over iii search of something promis ing, but for lack of skill or materials found nothing ho dared venture upon. At last lie settled upon a rec ipe whieli began, "Make a stiff dough. " When" he readied tho word dohgh, ho said to himself, "if r-o-u-g-li spells ruff, d-o-u-g-h spells duff." tte ho made tho pudding, putting irk som ii fino Malaga raising, and served it out. with a generous quanti ty of rich sauc?. Tho sailors hailed it with delight and appreciation. "What, d'ye .call itv" they asked. "Pl ni h duh'," sn Ul tho proud cook, And plum duff it has remained from that day t.6 this.--?Manchester Times, Malcho!) III Two Con I In.Mit "It is said," remarked Henry G.

Tho ina ich es iii common use in the United M ta tos today a rb very similar to those wh'eh are discarded in most Euro pean countries, except in the poorest neighborhoods, 10 or 15 years ago, and it is strange that some of the hot ter grades which have superseded them havo not acquired any foothold iii this country.

On a recent Saturday evening two women mot in a Boston market and after exchanging tho usual friendly greetings commenced to consolo each other for tho deaths of their respect ivo husbands. One of tho women was greatly af fected as she related tho virtues of her departed spouse Bursting into tears, she exclaimed: "Oh, but my Felix was a good man !" The other roplied, "My husband was good to mo, and my loss was as great as yours." - "I know all that," returned the first, "but my Felix had false tooth." "Well, what has that to do with it?" "1 have his teeth at homo, and I don't know what to do with thom. "Why didn't you have them buried with him?" The sorrowing widow, again burst ing into teai-s, cried, "I would, but I wa? afraid they might choke him. " Boston Herald. A Vnlunbl? Commit too.
