In Hyde Park lives a. young matron who is of such a high neryous tempera‘ment that if she drinks the very smallest amoutit of alcoholic stimulant before going to bed the result is -sleepless“ness ong remainder of the night. Some. a ts ago a number of friends dropped in for the evening, and the husband, who. by the way, is a southerner, suggested that he make a mint gulep for each of the company. The suggestion was received with delight, and the juleps were promptly mixed. In his wife’s glass, however, he put enly enough whisky: to flavor the water, probably not more than a tea‘spoonful. Of this she sipped about half. The result, however, was the .

On such occasions all these brave metal pieces: were attached to the rich Ameérican’s breast. “Vl soon end that,” the pope remarked to a confidante who was at his side during the levee. “Next time I shall give him a snuffbox,” which he did, and a beautiful jeweled box it was. The fYollowing year the American audience, when to: the holy father’s consternation the faithful son of the ehurch appeared not only with all his medals, but with the snuffbox attached to his waisicoat. “The next time,” the pope said, with a comiéal sigh, “I shall present him with a mstble topped table. It is the only thing I can think of that he can’t tie to his waisteoat.”—Chicago TimesHerald, — te Encouraged to Hope. When tif Empress Frederick, eldest daughter of Queen Victoria, was a little girl, her disposition, to the great grief of the queen, was haughty and arrogant, Once, when about to embark én the royal yacht Victoria and Albert, she was lifted across to the deck of the boat by one of the sailors, who, as he Was putting her down gently, said, “There you are, my little lady.” “Tain not a ‘little lady? I am a ptincess!” was the prompt and indignant reply. The queen, who had over‘+ heard ‘the conversation, detained -the man with gesture, and, turning to her spoiled little daughter, said: much indebted to him for his civility and that, although you are not a ‘little Jady’ yet, you confidently hope to merit the title before long.” Got Their Fees Anyway. _ .McJigger—Young Dr. Downs recent. ly made ‘ob. in a guessing contest.
