Her mistress was ill for two or three

Very indignant, she called Rosy, and
said:
"Rosy, I don’t see how you can stand

Smiling pleasantly, Rosy made reply:

"What do you think, my dear?” ex
claimed Mr. Brownjonea in tones of joy
ful excitement. “Yon know the Fed r-
ation of Authors is meeting in our city.
Well, wo are to hove the honor of en
tertaining the celebrated novelist Go-
dolphin Whatnot as our guest.”
“Urn,” responded Mrs. Browujones
enigmatically. “IsMr. Whatnot a real
ist or an idealist?”
“Why do you want to know?” asked
Brownjonea, surprised.
"Well, if ho is an idealist I can just
leave things as they are, but if ho is a
realist I must give the house a thorough
cleaning from top to bottom. I may not
bo literary, but I’vo dipped into real
istic novels, and I know their stylo:
‘Tho right hand curtain hung slightly
askew, suggesting that one of the dra
pery pins had lest its grip. A pendulous
cobweb waved mournfully from the
cornice just above the door leading into
the hall, and there was a fine bloom of
dust, like that of tho purple grape, on
tho piano lid. In the left hand corner of
tho room, almost buried in tho pile of
somewhat faded carpet, was an invisi
ble hairpin, clearly indicating the re
cent presence cf a woman in tho apart
ment. ’ Find out right away, Barring
ton, what Mr. Whatnot is, and then I
shall know how to proceed. I have no
desire to let my house afford material
to a realistic observation sharp.”—New

Tears For Revenue Only.
A heterogeneous collection of loafers
sat in the village public house, alter
nately wiping their eyes and sighing
heavily. The landlord’s sou had been
buried that day, and a fitting air of
gloom pervaded the place.
“What a lot of fuss you make about
it!” cried a smart young bravo who had
been surveying the company with ill
concealed disgust. “Why should we
bother ourselves about a corpse?”
The others stared at him aghast, but
before they could reply tho landlord
himself camo in and proceeded to serve
out quarts of alo in dignified fashion.
Ho went round tho room systematically
until ho camo to tho smart young mac,
who held out his hand for the pitcher.
“Nay, lad, tha’ll get no ale from
me,” said tho landlord.
“Why net?” was tho aggrieved ques
tion.
“ ’Cos tha besn’t carut it like t’rest.
They’ve been blubbing for two hours,
an tha hesn’t as much as ta’eu thy
handkerchief art o’ thy pocket. My
motto today is ‘No blub, no ale;’ so
tha’s got to go wi’out. ”
Then tho young man understood why
the grief of tho company had been so
intense.—Loudon Telegraph.

Avoiding German.
Tho Gorman papers call attention to
the fact that tho German language is
being loss and less used in tho German
and French cantons of Switzerland. One
reason tor this is the fact that it is con
sidered more aristocratic throngbout
Switzerland to speak French titan Ger
man. But another reason is found in
tho great influx of French workmen on
the Jura Simplon railway, duo to the
fact that French-Swiss influences suc
ceeded in forcing Markis, tho Berne
statesman and advocate of tho line, out
of tho management and transferring the
headquarters from tho German city of
Berne to tho French city of Lausanne.
C< mpluiut is also made by German
newspapers that in tho maps of tho road
French names of towns are substituted
for German, such as Bienue, Douanuc,
Gleresse.Neuville, etc.,for Biel, Twann,

As the summer sun would

this: it prevents their formation.
It has still other properties:
it will restore color to gray hair

And it does even more: it
