tfat yqa ww ft rtarafijM W. every-
body looks st yon. Not, as you may
vainly imagtnft, bMsnse you arc tbe first
young man ftrbo ever wore a store pipe
. fcat, bat because it is apparent even to
the old blind man who sits in the back
* ■ * * «i\
pew, without any cushion, away back
under the gallery where the poor have
tho gospel preached at them, that is the
first time you ever wore a hat of that
_ _ ,description. Your old lather claps one on
the back of his head, puts hards his into
bis pocket, bolds up his head and walks
off down the street in a gale of wind and
never thinks of his-hat. But you, son,
yqu pi ll yours on at the most graceful
angle it can bo posed, and you go teet
ering along, both hands ready to fly at
tlic hat at tbe slightest provooation of
the ghostliest phantom ol a puff of wind.
You don't look comfortable, eon, Your
liat is always trying to come off; you
bump against everything you pass; you
rub it tho wrong way when you try to
brush the dust off it; when you carry
it in your hand up tho aisle, everybody
smiles because, you hold it by. the brim
and let tho crown tip gracefully over
your arm, and by the time you have hit
three of four worshipers on tho head
with it, you change and turn it ut.der
your arm and try to carry it that Way
without touching it, and tho first thing
yon do in that pose, you put a womaifs
cyo out with your elbow. Then when
you sit down, you pub the hat on tho
fioor, setting it on the brim ; a fatal mis
take. And then before the sermon is
half through, you put your feet ou it
three times. Bat nsver mind; you
have to learu some time. Only dou’t
imagine that people never saw anything
of tho kind before, for they have. And
finally, son, if you an only fiva feet
throe inches tall, don’t think that a hat
three feet five inches high improves your
Planters,

may make you look as though you
clerked in a second hand clothing store,
but it doesn't mako you look taller. By
.and bye, when you have worn n high
hat two or three years, you will wear it
ao naturally that it will become you. But

Nu, lie wasn’t an angel. In the first
place lie was all logs and mgs and no
wviaga, and in tho next he had taken up
(his quarters in a hogshead in an ally and
avos singing at midnight ;
< iCstuff-! : *
It’s ruff—
But I’m up to snuff;
And this world shall kn<wr,
Wherever I go,
,. That my name In world known as
Samuel McDuff.
A policeman passed that way and
asked him to step out and take a little air
for the benefit of bis health.
“ I’ll hold the fort till I die,” replied
Mr. McDuff, in a voice resembling the
roar of a lion.
Tho oflVccf began a system of gentle
coercion. He played a tanc on the hogs
head with his baton, but the roar and
tbe din delighted the old man, and ho
sang:
1 hear the gentle x“phyrs blowing.
Like murmers from the sea. <
Then tho officer pounded on the hogs
head with a rock, but the old man sang
all tho harder. As a lust resort the po-
lioemnn seised the hogshead and rolled
it over the locks in the alley until the
head fell in and the man was tangled up
in the hoops. But he was game. llis<
ing like ft Phoenix, or two or three of
them, he charged up and down until a
second officer arrived to seize his coat-
fail. He was then taken to the Central
Nation.
The procession was five minutes pass
ing some points, and only a second pass
ing others, and Mr. McDuff arrived at
the cooler with almost half a shiit on his
back. He came before tbe court plumb
up and down, and without waiting for
any preliminaries lie called out:
“ Samuel McDuff is just dying to bo
sent up for three mouths.”
“ I guess I can accommodate you,”
quietly replied bis Honor, as he picked
up his pen. * ‘
“Aid I demand ice cream and roast
thicken three times a day," continued
tho prisoner.
“Vftty well—you can retire.'’
“ And retiro I will yootlloBor, but
not until I make mo bow and show (he
good society I was brung up in.”
Ho stopped back, spit on both hands,
drew lo ft full breath, and the bow he
bowed was grand enough for a duke ut
the head of a banquet table,
A Bath (Me.) paper says a house
wife was bothered by (he propensity
shown by the cat and iior two kittens of
getting beneath her feet. She asked her
hnsbftnd ia the .presence of tho feiincs to
droira the kittens. Ho said he would
after dinner. After dinner the kittens
wwwnot'lft Be foihd. Two da vs later
the cat brought a moose Into the kitchen
and laid it at her mistreaa’ feet “ Now
puss,” said the lady, “ if you’ll take that
i r out of tho way and will keep
I will keep your
kittens from • wider my feet you may
bring them back to the bouse. ” Puss
trudged away with the mouse, went to ft
hole under the hern and soon came to
ward the hove with the two kittens fol
lowing her. . e
