I have viewed the cemetery lot Os a well known butcher containing a row of five small graves and felt a disposition to anile at the five small lambs surmounting them. And yet there was nothing really in congruous In any of these cases, unless in that of the butcher’s favorite emblem of innocence, and even that only argued a freshness at feeling which is some what unusual.—Lippincott’a rimotu WerborMS. Herses in war suffer more fatalities than men. Out of the many thousands who perish to their duty toward their masters only few return home to spend their lives in the ease and honor they deserve. One warhorse, however, which made a splendid record for himself and now haa his virtues, name and noble deeds engraved on a fitting tombstone was Copenhagen, the horse the great Duke of Wellington rode at the battle of Waterloo. Nine years after the Emperor Na poleon died at St. Helena an old white horse perished of old age and pneumonia to England. The skeleton of the animal is set up in the Royal Service institu tion, and to all visitors it is pointed out as Marengo, the charger Napoleon rode at the battle of Waterloo. Marengo camo originally from Egypt and was left to wander on the dismal battlefield when the emperor was forced to fly for his life. An English officer found and took him, and he was sold to a general in the British army. In English pas tures, cared for by kindly grooms, this noble horse passed the latter years of his life far more peacefully and happily than his great and unfortunate master. —London Mail. A Weighty Question. The story is told of a gilded youth of Chicago whose father employed a pri vate tutor to ram algebra into the young man’s head. In order to simplify the “plus” and “minus” the tutor used the familiar il lustration of the counting of years from the birth of Christ. “Now, for instance, we speak of so many years A. D. or in the year of our Lord,” he said. “Those years counting from the birth of Christ we may con sider as the plus units. The years count ing back one by one before the birth of Christ we may take to be the minus unite. Now, suppose I ask you the ques tion, How many years elapse between the date 10 B. C. and 10 A. D.?” “Let me get that straight, ” said the young man. The question was repeated. He sat in deep thought for several momenta and then said: “Well, now, I’ll tell you. I could answer that if I only knew in what year Christ -was born. ” —Chicago Record. Subdued tbe Virago. While Spurgeon was still a boy preacher he was warned about a certain virago and told that she intended to give him a tongue lashing. “Allright,” he replied, “but that’s a game at which two can play." Not long after, as he passed her gate one morning, she assail ed him with a flood of billingsgate. Ho smiled and said: "Yes, thank you, I am quite well. I hope you are the same.” Then came another burst of vitupera tion, pitched in a still higher key, to which he replied, still smiling: “Yes, It does look rather as if it is going to rain. I think I had better be getting on I” “Bless the man I” she exclaimed, “he’s as deaf aa a post What’s the use of storming at him?” and so her rav ings ceased and were never again at tempted.
