Pompignan de Mirabelle, vas imprudent enough to repeat at i supper party some satirical verses le had heard touching Mme. de Pompadour and M. de Sartines, the ;hief of police. Warned that De Sartines had filled itehis name on a ettre de cachet, M. de Mirabelle ;alled at the police office and asked :o what prison he should betake limself. 'To Yincennes,' said De Sartines. " To Vincennes,' repeated M. de llirabelle to his coachman, and he irrived at the dungeon before the )rder for his detention. "Once a year De Sartines made a n""?l ^ Vinr>?Tinefl_ and once i year punctually he demanded of tf. de Mirabelle the name of the luthor of the verses. 'If I knew, I ihould not tell you,' was the invariible reply, 'but as a matter of fact [ never heard it in my life.'

When Mr. Spurgeon first began lis ministry an anonymous critic ised to write to him constantly ibout his mistakes in grammar and >ronunciation. Mr. Spurgeon at irst resented these criticisms, but le 60on learned to profit by them. 'After awhile," he said in telling .he story, "I looked for his weekly nemoranda with much interest. If [ repeated a sentence which I had ised two or three Sundays before, le would write, 'See the same ex>ression in such and such a sery yy iion. Mr. Spurgeon, like everybody slse, had his pet quotation, and he ised this line, "Nothing in my hand ;o bring," rather frequently. So lis commentator wrote him, "We ?

The first thine an orthodox Sianese does in tne morning is to icare away the family ghosta who nay have gathered about the old olace in the night. Letting off crackers is an effectual means. At die new year all the ghosts come :rooping to their former dwellings. For three days they have their fun. kt the end of the time the priests ind their flocks fire guns and use other devices for getting rid of :hem. A Siamese is coffined face lownward, so that the ghost may! not sneak back through the dead1 nan's mouth. The coffin is taken out through a hole in the wall and carried several times round the house in order that the ghost may be put off the 6cent and not return to vex his family.
