Come ai r. i ^n-PTUTTT? "M* ATM A "NTT J Checkmate! In these days, when various schemes are being suggested by which the loser : of personal property may recover it without offering an extreme reward, it is interesting to note two advertisements which appeared last summer in a German paper. In these advertise ments nothing so bald as a suggestion 01 reward appeared, xaey seem merely to present two wits fencing, and the reader forgets the matter at stake: Berlin. Ang. 5.?The gentleman who found a purse, valuable beyond explanation, in the Blumenstrasse, is requested graciously to forward it to the address of the loser, as he is recognized. Berlin, Aug. 6.?The recognized gentleman who found a purse, valuable beyond explanation, begs that the loser will call at his house at the earliest convenient hour. The Green Kind. A naval officer who has seen considerable service in South American waters once brought home two parrots, one of which he gave to the housemaid and the other to the cook. For a long time there ensued anii?!onnoalftnc a a th<* mprifa nf UlttlCU - MM MM" .MM ?..... their respective birds. Finally the housemaid said: "Your parrot may be a better talker than mine, though I don't believe it" Then, with an air of pr ~ anting the final clinching argument in her favor, she added, "Besides, you'll have to admit that mine has the most beautiful foliage."?Lippincotfs. Honored the Old Men. A unique festival occurred in Paris In 1797 in honor of the old men. The idea was the encouragement of the family circle, and the old man who was a happy grandfather was held up to the younger generations to follow in his footsteps. "A gracious Hebe crowned their white locks with garlands of roses, while the soldiers of France presented arms in their honor." Legislatively Expressed. "No one can go wrong if be follows the Ten Commandments," said the sin cere citizen. "Yes," replied Senator Sorghnm. "the only trouble abont the Ten Commandments arises from the amend* ments people try to tack to them."? Washington Star. Stung. , Teacher ? Tommy, do yon know "How Does the Little Bnsy Bee?"
