THAT BLESSED BABY. Mr. Frank Finnicke ks.? the roost inveterate baby hater that ever lived ifc tho shape of o bachelor.

Ho never enter. <1 hie brother's' house, where them wore several small children, if not more, without a shiver of dread. A bejrpar could ?ji?t nothing from Mr. Frank if she r.irriod a baby, nnd although a very humane and kton-hearted man In other respects, he waa h?nrd, at times, to pive vont to tho most dreadful denunciations if a haby cri d in hin beating. Hi* brother Msrk, the father of the small children mentioned before, had faithfully promised that hip next bahj should be sent to Frank to adopt, and for several week* the unfortu nate bachelor expected, whenever the door-bell rang, to seo the present arrive nicely peeked in a straw cradle. Every time be met his brother, the tin cat was )an<rhinglv renewed, unrii Mr. Frank grew porfeetly desperate, and left hotue, went to Paris and remained oigbtf-on months, dreaming of his pleasant house in London ?reman with very diminutve children, who cried when ho was reading or writing, plastered his velvet chair* and ottomans with gingerbread and candy, broke his looking glasses, used his watch for a plaything, his fine china for baby booses, his books fjr stools/ his raxors for hatchets, and his newspapers for lamp lighters before be had seen them. He shun nod the squares where the pretty bonne* and their preoioas charges passed the honrs; ho ^ moved from several hotels became there vm a sospieipne crying, hushing, and JES|k lullaby singing in another room, and made Himself miserable generally on thestrengtli of baby hating. .
