The clImax of a Dinner In Honor' et the Eccentric Artiast. At the close of the case of Whistler against Ruskin, the former, finding himself very much In need of rest and recreation, decided to make a southern trip. When he arrived in Venice his American friend thought to cheer him by giving a Uile dinner In his honor, to which were bidden several friends of the artist, principally Americans and some few Italians. During the meal there arose a discussion which left an opening for Mr. Whistler to use upon his host one of those keen, incsive, verbal thrusts peculiar to him, which left wounds extremely difficult to heal. The whole company was startled, but the host merely smiled, seeming to notice only the brilliancy of the attack. Presently, however, the dinner came to aLn end and the foreign guests took their leave. Then the host turned upon Mr. Whistler and, in a voice trembling with suppressed anger. said: "Jimmie, do you know that you bru tally Insulted me tonight'?'' "Yes," replied the artist thoughtfully. "Well," continued the host, "I held my temper while there were others than our own country-men present, but do you k-now what I shall do if ever you speak to me like that again?" "What?" "I'll grab the nearest water bottle and smash it over your head." The rest of the company sat quite still, horror and dismay In their hearts, while their angry host glared across the table at his antagonist. After a few seconds Mr. Whistler said in a tone of childlike innocence: "Then I know what I'll do. I'll never say anything like that to you again." London Academy. The Dictionary. "Neither Is a dictionary a bad book to read," says Emerson In his essay on books.

Mr. Arthur Chapman writing from Durban, Natal, South Africa. says: "As a proof that Chamberlain's Cough Rem edy is a cure suitable for old and young I pen you the following: A neighbor of mine had a child just over two months 0od. It had a very bad cough and the parents did not know what to give it. I suggested that if they get a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and put some upon the dummy teat the baby was sucking it would no doubt cure the child. This they did and brought about a quick relief and cured the baby." This remedy is for sale by The R. B. Lorya Drug Store. Isaac N.

A story is told of a Louisiana mer chant who came to New York deter mined to secure a bargain. He wanted cheap cloaks, and after trying in vain to suit himself at the wholesale houses he bought a job lot at auction. He ex amined the goods hurriedly and had them shipped home. In due time he was confronted by an excited head salesman who said the garments were out of style. "They didn't look that way." said the merchant "But they are." replied the clerk. The merchant persisted that the cloaks would sell, but they didn't. In desperation he returned them to New York to be disposed of to best advan tage. On his nest trip to New York he again visited an auction house and bought a lot of cloaks. When be re turned home and examined his pur chase he saw t'h'at he lwi bought the same lot as before.-Wo .'s Work. The Bird- Monopolist. As is generally known. the cuckoo lays its eggs in the nests of other birds, leaving them to be hatched and the young cuckoos reared by their foster parents. The young cuckoo throws the other birds out of the nest and gets all the care itself. After murdering its foster brothers and sisters in the most deliberate and callous way it Is thence forth tended with the greatest devo tion. Long after it has left the nest the great bird, apparently big enough to get its own living and many times larger than its foster parents, is fol lowed about and fed by them with the same care as when in the nest.
