A Btranger, with no guile in his face
and no overcoat on his shoulders, wan?
dered into a clothing store in Newport
the other day, and askod if ho could be
fitted with a spring overcoat. Tho pro?
prietor promptly answered in the affirm?
ative. "You speak very,positively," re?
plied tho Btranger. "I am bigger than
you take me for. ' Tho store-keeper was
still confident ho had coats that would
answer. "I am a pretty heavy man,"
said tho stronger. "I will bet you $5
that you can't guess my weight within
100 pounds." Tho man was not particu?
larly large, and this astounding chullengo
entirely diverted tho seller of clothing
from the ordinary coursoof his business.
He took the'wager, named his guess?
about 160 pounds?the money was put
up in the handstof a third party, and all
started off for a pair of scales, and tho
stranger balanced 290 pounds of weights.
The store man loeked sad and puzzled.
With a smile that v."?s child-hko and
bland, the stranger took his money and
walked off, without saying anything
moro about the overcoat. It has sinco
been learned that this man wears a lead
i'acket, and has been making an honest
iving by playing his Bcurvy trick on un?
suspecting dealers in clothing. He came
from Connecticut.
Step-Mother.?A lady in Boston at?
tempted to deliver a lecture on "step?
mothers" a few evenings since, and it is
evident from the glimpse wo get of it
that she is an admirer of sterj-motkers,
for she said: "What grander typo of
motherhood can you fink than this? For
only the motherless know what it is to
go through the world without a mother's
care. There aro counterfeits in all posi?
tions, in all professions; but we must not
condemn the rule on account of the
exceptions. 'Tis not for you nor mo to
say what woman a man shall take for a
mother to his motherless children, but
when a man takes a child to occupy such
a position I think it is somsbody h busi?
ness." Very likely, and generally the
other children of the household will lot
the one "occupying such a position"
know before she gets through.
A few days since, a very absent-minded
man got into a horse-car at Portland, for j
Deering, Me. He had a basket with him,
and to make sure that ho would not for?
get it when he got out, ho placed it se?
curely between his feet During the ride
he engaged very earnestly in conversa?
tion with another gentleman, and when
the car arrived at the place whero he
wished to alight, he hastily arose, and
naturally kicked over the basket. He
picked himself up, and then exclaimed,
4 'What fool left that basket there for peo
plo to stumble over?" and got out of the
car, leaving tho basket where ho had
kicked it
A Maine druggist has a valuablo
coach-dog whose teeth have lately begun
to decay with age, so he has had them
filled by a neighboring dentist Maybe
the dog would rather havo had the
tooth-ache than its remedy. We have
known some human beings who had this
preference.
