The prince narrated his exploits in and gravely stated that while pursuing a pair of ahu when riding a very restive horse his headstall broke. “What should you have done, doctor?” asked the prigce. ; “I should have tried to stick on as long as the ground was good and, expecting an accident, have awaited it.” “Ah, that was because you were not and, unclasping my belt, placed it in the horse’s mouth as a bridle, and, thus directing him, pursued my game and killed both antelope.” : All the circle applauded, as of cow they were bound to do. Dr. Wills was. silent. : “You don’t mean to say you don’t believe that?” said the prince. “Speak out if you don’t. I shan’t be offended in the least.” : “Well, your highness, I don’t believe i ” * ‘ “Quite right, darogh bood” (it was a lie), unblushingly replied his. royal highness and burst into a fit of laughter quite unabashed. The circle of courtiers, of course, were convulsed. She Smoked. ‘ A patient’ of one of the leading specialists who treat.polypi in the nose and throat is a woman well known for her. work in Sunday schools in this city. She bas a record as the organizer of a number of anticigarette leagues among the schoolboys.. She came to her doctor the other day. He cheered her greatly by telling her he could cure her quickly and without the use of the knife. “But you must promise to follow my directions,” said the doctor, with the “Oh, I promise,’ said the lady. “Without qualification?” asked the physician, answered the lady. “Well, then, you must smoke. cigarettes!” The lady gasped. Visions of what might happen if she were seen with a cigarette between ber teeth by any of her pupils floated before her, and she almost fainted. But the doctor was inexorable. The lady followed his directions, and ‘in a week the foreign growth in her nose had disappeared. But that doesn’t mean that the lady is now a confirmed cigarette smoker.— United States Tobacco Journal. Coroners’. inguests are well known among the Chinese. One of the chief differences between, theig system and ours is that the Chinese doctors never dissect. In fact, Chinamen have a perfect horror of dissection. There are few things more absurd than the code of rules laid down for the Chinese coroner, In the first place, he’ is bidden to niake sure that be has a dead body before Hie begins his inquest. . That, however, isyless ridiculous than it sounds; for the heathen Chinee is tri¢ky and may demand an inquest on a sham @eceased. with a view of extorting money from some ing caused the death. ” The preposterous part of the code comes in with regard to the alleged signs which show the cause of degth.

Were I to send for the lockarchitect of the capitol He bas no within the jurisdiction of the architect of the capitol.’’’ : ‘said: the committee secretary. ‘I caused the carpenter to paste some cloth that the books might not show. He I noted thet he had not cleaned the glass before he put the cloth on. The thing looked so disreputable that I asked him whyfhe had not cleaned the glass. He told me that the glass was a permanent fixture and that he had no authority to touch it, but that. the placing of the cloth upon it was a temporary matter and was entirely within the province of his labors. The whole thing’s got to be done all over again.” — Washington Cor. Cleveland Plain Dealer. She Didn’t Buy It. The following story will show the high price that illustrators of reputation command for their work: A young ‘woman who had received treatment from Dr. 8. Weir Mitchell of Philadetphia and was very fond of him decided, at a recent celebration of his birthday, that a fitting and appropriate gift would be the presentation of one of the original drawings of Mr. Howard Pyle for ‘Hugh Wynne.” Forthwith she invaded The Century company’s sanctum and, with her fingers tenderly grasping a new $10 note, asked to buy the drawing. She was informed that these pictures. were never sold unless exceptions were. made in cases where the artist himself or the author wished to make the purchase. . . “Just so,” said the young woman. “I wish to present it to Dr. Mitchell.” man at the desk, “we shall take pleasure in giving it to you at the exact price we paid for it, which is $100.” The little lady in her excitement dropped the $10 bill, The gentleman at the desk picked it up for her and smiled while she hurriedly took her. departure. The good doctor was presented with a less appropriate gift that year.— New York Times. : Clear and to the Point. The following is taken from a hote) “Gentlemen who.come in hotel not say anything about their meals they will be charged for, and if they should say beforehand that they are going out to breakfast or dinner, eic., and if they say that they not have anything to eat they will be charged, and if not so they will not be charged; or unless they bring it to the notice of the manager of the place, and should they want to say anything they must order the manager for. ohe, not any one else, and unless they. bring not it to the notice of the manager they will be charged for the least things according to the hotel rate, and no fuss will be allowed afterward about it.” wunious Uompliment, “And how did you and grandpa get along?’ inquired the doting mamma of the precocious child. < “He was pleasant as pie,” replied the cherub. “As pleasant as ple?” “Yes, mamma—short and crusty.”— Cleveland Plain.
