THTNfMNG ALOUD.
A Ruse Wl.«ch Roused Lord 'Dudley
end Formed a Friendship.
One of the earls of Dudley, who was
addicted to the practice of thinking
aloud, found himself in a very awk
ward predicament on a certain occa
sion. He was to spend the evening at
the house of a friend and ordered his
carriage early, as he had a long drive
back to his own home.
tVhen the hour arrived the carriage
was not forthcoming. Seeing that
Lord Dudley was considerably annoy
ed by the delay, one of the guests,
whose way homeward lay past hi?
lordship’s house, politely offered him
seat in his carriage. The gentleman
was almost a stranger to Lord Dud-
ley, but the offer was accepted.
The drive did not prove a very socia
ble one. Lord Dudley took his seat
and Immediately relapsed into silence.
hie thoughts apparently engrossed by
Mm* unpleasant subject. Presently he
began to speak In a low bat distinctly
aadlble tone of voice, and his compan
ion, to bis astonishment, beard him
say:
“I'm very sorry i accepted his offer.
I don’t know the man. It was civil
certainly, bat the worst Is I suppose
I mast ask him to dinner.”
Silence followed this bit of aadlble
thinking. His lordship was unaware
that he had betrayed his thoughts «ud
was probably still meditating upon
the same unpleasant snbject when the
voice of his companion broke the still
ness.
Apparently this stranger was afflict
ed with the same malady from which
his lordship suffered, for he exactly
Imitated Lord Dudley’s tone as he
said:
“Perhaps he’ll think I did it to make
his acquaintance. Why, I would have
done the same to any farmer on his
estate. I hope he won’t ask me to din
ner, for I shan’t accept his Invitation.”
Lord Dudley’s abstraction was all
gone. He listened to the other's words,
immediately comprehending the joke
against himself, and frankly offered
his hand to his companion, making
many apologies for his involuntary
rudeness.
The stranger proved magnanimous,
and from that night the two became
fast friends.
THE TAXIDERMIST.
He Stretches Animal Skins Over Plas
ter of Paris Forms.
Recently a prominent taxidermist of
St. Louis was taking a party of visit
ors through his establishment. He had
some very rare specimens of big game
fish, both of the sea and river, besides
a large collection of birds of every
clime about the walls.
“Is that stuffed, too?” asked a lady,
indicating the lifelike form of a small
pet dog which sat: motionless upon the
hearth.
The taxidermist frowned and return
ed very indignantly:
“Madam, we do no stuffing here. We
stretch our hides over plaster of paris
forms. The day of stuffing is past, and
no up to date establishment does it”
The party was taken upstairs,
through the rooms where the real taxi
dermy is done. They had expected to
-see hides being crammed full of saw
dust, shavings and perhaps hair. No
such thing was seen, however, and in
place of this were men and boys mold
ing out the forms of deer, antelope,
fidh and other kinds of animals in the
smooth white plaster. This is done
very much in the same way as the
terra cotta cornices are molded to
grace the corners of buildings. The
hides after going through the cleaning
process are stretched tightly over the
plaster form, which indeed is more
lasting than the old fashioned manner
of stuffing them.
“Even specimens of fish are treated
in this manner,” resumed the taxider
mist, “and you may easily see how a
skin would retain its shape a great
deal longer over the hard, smooth sur
face of the plaster than If a softer ma
terial were crammed into it, which If
improperly done will bulge and last but
a short: time.”—Exchange.
Lincoln’s Last Law Case.
Lincoln tried his last case In Chi
cago. It was the case of Jones versus
Johnson In April and May, 1860, in the
United States circuit court before
Judge Drummond. The case involved
the title to land of very great value,
the accretion on the shore of Lake
Michigan. During the trial Judge
Drummond and alt the counsel oh both
sides, including Lincoln, dined together
at the house of Isaac N. Arnold.
At the conclusion of che dinner this
toast was proposed: “May Illinois fur
nish the next president of the United
States.” It was drunk with great en
thusiasm by the friends of both Lin
coln and Douglas. — Chicago Record-

The Wary Crow.
The crow is useful in killing mice,
snakes,' lizards and frogs and is a
splendid scavenger. He is quite wary,
will always flee from a man with a
gun. but pays little attention to the
ordinary pedestrian. These birds are
gregarious in their habits and make
their large, untidy nests at the tops of
trees. They come In flocks to the sleep
ing grove, sit around on the ground,
and when all are assembled they rise
simultaneously and scramble for nests

Shadow Etiquette.
“1 saluted the Kaffir chief respect-
folly and hearty.” said the sailor. “Can
you imagine my surprise when he give
me a kick?
“ ‘Get off my shadder,’ he says.
“ r Wot?’
“ ‘Get off my shadder.’
“I was standing, by crinus, on his
shadder, the shadder of his stomach.
1 skipped from there to the face. He
groaned. When I got on to sunlit
ground again he says to me:
“ ‘Didn’t you never have no bringin’
op? Look at you now, lengthenin’ out
yonr shadow longer’n mine. Crouch,
consara yon, or I’ll warm your hide
with this here club.’ ”
The sailor gave a loud laugh and
emptied his glass of milk.
“Them Kaffirs,” he said, “regards
their shadders as part of themselves.
A polite Kaffir wonld no more walk on
another's shadder than a polite Ameri

Much Law, Poor Case.
Among lawyers there is a saying
that in the trial of a case an attorney
if light on facts most be heavy on law.
The other day an attorney was prepar
ing to leave his office in one of the big
office buildings to go to the courthouse
to try a case. From the shelves of his
library he had taken many large law
books containing decisions and opin
ions of higher courts. At Intervals a
boy went in and out of the door, and
each time he bore in his arms a stack
of the books, which he carried to an
express wagon that stood in the street
below. The attorney was to use the
books in the courtroom. Another law
yer, who is of southern birth and who
always addresses his friends with
some army title, watched the boy as be
went in and out carrying the law
books. Then he dug his hands deep
into his trousers pockets and said to
the lawyer:
“Well, Ah’ll sweah, kunnel, you must
have no case at all.”—Kansas City
Times.
Snow and Rain.
The first man to whom It ever oc
curred to find out how much rain was
represented by a given fall of snow
was Alexander Brice of Kirknewton.
who in March, 1765, made a simple ex
periment with the contents of a stone
jug driven face downward into over
six inches of snow. What he learned
was that a greater or less degree of
cold or of wind when the snow falls
and its “lying a longer or shorter time
on the ground” will occasion a differ
ence in the weight and in-the quantity
of water produced, “but if,” he added,
“I may trust to the above trials, which
I endeavored to perform with care,
snow newly fallen, with a moderate
gale of wtud, freezing cold, will pro
duce a quantity of water equal to one-
tenth part of its bulk ” So that a fall
of snow of ten inches represents a
rainfall of one inch.—London Chroni
cle.
The Adifer.
A full grown adder may measure
two feet in length and about six
inches around the thickest part of its
body. Its movements are sluggish, and
cf course the idea that it is capable of
transferring its head from one extrem
ity to the other every six months is due
simply to superstition. The fact is
that the tail of this snake does not
terminate in a point, as with ophidians
generally, but is stumpy and.resem
bles the head so much that it is diffi
cult for an observer situated at a dis
tance of a few yards to distinguish the
one from the other; hence the story of
its being two headed, the fallacy of
which no intelligent observer could
fail to detect—Pioneer.
Courtesy.
The parvenu stood it till he could
stand it no longer.
“James,” he cried out piteously, “teil
me the worst! You find my table man
ners execrable!”
But his new butler, bowing first with
stately condescension, only replied:
“As a matter of professional courte
sy Hi cannot hentertain. much less
hexpress. hauy hopinion which might
seem in hanyway to reflect on my
predecessor ’ere.”
And he bowed again arid was silent—
Puck.
The Wings of Time.
Methuselah was walking In his gar
den.
“My goodness,” he exclaimed sudden
ly, “there’s another flower on that’cen-
tury plant! Why, it seems but yester
day since I plucked a blossom from it.”
He walked slowly toward an oak tree
200 years old which he had tenderly
raised from an acorn.
•‘Ah me,” be mused, “how time
flies!”—Harper’s Weekly.
The Larger Class.
“Of course,” said the seeker after
knowledge, “we seldom hear “thee’ and
’thou’ nowadays. They’re used mostly
by poets, aren’t they?*
“No," replied the editor; “they’re
used mostly by people who think
they’re poets.”—Catholic Standard ami
