He fancied that his neighbor, who receiv ed a pension for the loss of an arm in curred while fighting for Ills country, was better off than himself. Both men went to pay their rent on the same day; “That's a lucky man,” said the tailor to the landlord. “He gets well paid for his arm.” “But who would be willing to part with an arm, even if he were paid for It?” said the landlord. “I would,” declared the tailor. “You!” cried the landlord. “Why, man, you wouldn’t be willing to bear anything of the sort, no matter how much you were paid for it.” “I wish some one would try me.” “Now, see here,” said the landlord, who had studied human nature, “I’ll telT you what, if you’ll wear even so much as a chalk mark on your back I’ll remit your rent as long as you wear it on your coat so it can be seen, the condition being that you tell no one why it is there.” “Agreed,”- said the tailor eagerly. “That’s an easy way to pay rent”’ . So the chalk mark In the form of a cross was made on the hack of his coat, and, the delighted tailor sallied forth upon the street. Strangers and acquaintances hailed him 'to tell him of the mark on hl3 back. Jokes were made at his expense, children laughed and pointed at him, and his wife annoyed him with ques tions and with conjugal familiarity told him he was a fool. The usually amiable man grew surly and morose; he shunned men. women and children and frequented back streets. Before the week was up the tailor found him self embroiled In a quarrel with his best frieud. his wife had threatened to leave his house and he considered him self miserable and ill used. Finally, one night he took off his coat and rubbed out the chalk mark and said: “There! I would not wear that cross on my back another week, no, not if I could have all the money there is in Paris!”—Youth’s Compan ion. SHAVING A DEAD MAN. A Job That Oeoirtled an' Impeenni- ona Artist About a Week. “I have just finished shaving a dead man.” said a local artist. _“Tlie job oc cupied me about a week and"— “Good heavens!” ejaculate a horrified friend, “what d'ye mean?” “Don’t he alarm ed." replied the artist calmly- “The operation was uot-as repulsive.as yon may imagine. In fact, I performed It with a brush. You see, a certain family of my acquaintance have a large oil painting of the head of the house, who departed from this vale of tears some time in the early eighties. At the time the portrait was made he wore a full beard, which was contrary to his usual custom, and the family, who remember him best with a smooth face, have been anxious ever since to get off the whiskers. I was engaged to shave the portrait, and - hard times and approach ing rent day persuaded me to accept the commission, which, needless to say, was highly antipathetic to my artistic Instincts. “I had to depend entirely on the recol lection of the family for my data, and I found, to my alarm, that each mem ber had retained a different impression of the old 'gentleman's chin. One claim ed it was double and-another insisted that it was sharp and clean cut; a daughter described it as ‘square and determined.’ and the; widow assured me privately that it was shaped like the prow of in: armored cruiser. Alto gether I found myself iff a deuce of a fix. It was no trouble to take off the w’.skers; 1 did that in three fell swoops: but when I blocked out the jaw experimentally and called in the crowd for suggestions, there-was a grand chorus of protest. Strange to say. I pleased nobody, and I have been correcting; amending, remodeling and doing it all over again ever since. One point of dispute was the location of a wart, which half the family said was on the left and half on the right. 1 finally effected a compromise by paint ing in two warts, one on each side. 1 got my fee all right, hut before I take another tonsorial job I’ll go to driving Many a fair young child, whose pal lor has puzzled the mother until she has sr speoted rightly her darling was troubled with worms, has'regained the rosy lino of health with a few doses of White’s Cream Vermifuge.

Wonderful Susceptibility of tiie Great Composer. When Haydn came to England, he succumbed, says the writer of an arti cle? on “Music and Matrimony” in the Cor nil ill Magazine, to the charms of a certain Mrs. Shaw, who figures in his diary as the most beautiful woman he had ever met. As a matter of fact, Haydn was always meeting the “most beautiful” woman. “The loveliest woman I ever saw” was at one time a Mrs. Hodges, while at another time the widow of a musi cian named Scliroeter so fascinated him that he kept her letters for many years and declared that if it were not for the existence of Anna Maria he would have married her. Certainly Mrs. Sehroeter’s letters were pleasant enough. “Every moment of your com pany.” she wrote from Buckingham Gate in 1792, “is more and more pre cious to me now that your departure is so near. J feel for you the fondest and tenderest affection the human heart is capable of. I ever am, with the most inviolable attachment my dearest and most beloved Haydn, most faithfully and most affectionately yours.” What would the absent Fran Doc- torin Haydn have said had she known of it? The composer also got mixed np In a little affair with the beautiful Mrs. Billington. Sir Joshua Reynolds was painting her portrait for him and had represented her as St Cecilia listen ing to celestial music. “What do you think of the charming Billington’s pic ture?” Said the artist to Haydn when the work was finished. “It is- indeed a beautiful picture.” replied Haydn. “It is just like her. but there is a strange mistake. You have painted her listening to the angels when yon ought to have painted the angels listening to her.” If Haydn paid compliments like this all round, we can easily understand how he attained such fame as a Lon don society man.

How this Dread Disease May be Prevented and Cured—The Greatest of Specialists Writes on the Subject. Catarrh Is tho mother of consnmption. By this I do not mean that every case of catarrh de- velopesinto consnmption, but I do mean that catarrh when un checked, and - when given tho proper opportunities for exten sion from its place of beginning. Catarrh seldom destroys any rronsiderablo part of the mucous surface of tbe upper air pass ages; tt inflames and congests flmng^Mhe hafrdike lun'g tabes and little lung ceils, the inflamation ..and congestion which it causes, closes these small air passages and, allowing the putrid discharged matter to accumulate, causes a rot ting away of tho membrane, resulting in what wo call Consumption of the Langs. 9 THE TENDENCY OF CATARRH. Tho tendency of catarrh, when it has once obtained i foothold in any portion of the mucous membrane which lines every cavity of the body, is to constantly extend in every direction. Catarrh in almost every instance starts with what is commonlv known as cold In the head. This cold Is added to by another, bccanse of some extra exposure weakening of the system and becomes chronic to the throat, to tho bronchial tubes, and then to the brags. i any more than new lingers or a be cured In all its stages be made for a new nose: but catarrh except this final and always fatal A CERTAIN CURE. In an experience of twenty years, during which time I have treated many thousands of cases of all forms of catarrh, I have never yet failed to effect a radical and permanent enre. The method I employ is one exclusively my own, and the remedies which! use are prepared under my personal direction In my Dwn laboratories.
