This horse has nothing to do with the blue line, uud knows the difference between tho bine and the brown cars. If lie is on ids way hack to the storting point and sees a brown car coming, this shrewd animal will turn around and stand alongside the track waiting fur the car to reach him. No amount of coaxing cun iuduco him to move, hut after the car reaches him ho will "pull like a major" until lie reaches the top. Then lie returns to Ills post, and when lie again sees his car coming turns and gets into position. A duy or two ago tho hill lioy, instead of walking hack with tho horse or rid ing him, os was ills usual custom. Jumped on a car and rode down. Tho horse saw this and stopped half way tip tho hill and would nut move until tho boy came utter him. Whenever tho boy rides on the car tho lio.-se stops half way down tho hill, lint when tho boy remains with him tlie old gray pursues tho oven tenor of his way until he reaches tho bottom.—Our Animal friends.

They hud no friends in thero, unless thoy mode friends among tho othor prisoners, and they did not spoak or wish to speak to any one. Thoy loaned against the grated door and looked in, as if they wantod to come buck. 1 really think somo of them beoomo attached to the lifo, and one reason Is tlmt unless they, are men of gentle feel ings they do not feel tlie slmuio of their position us long as they uro lusldo, but when thoy cornu out nud meet othor men they know they have the jail stain on them, and thoy imagine every one soos it.

Maggie Tell, Why It Wm She Was Per- sanded to Murry Dinny O'Sullivan. The girl who marries for money is popularly supposed to marry for plenty of it. But mercenary mntchcs are unfortunately quite as common in poor and humble society os in more conspicuous circles. An Irish woman, still young and on tho eve of a second marriage, thus related her first experience, which happily partook more of comedy than trag edy.

Now. the temptation to slip the rope of bis sled through the runner of the sleigh uud so catch a ride occasionally was too great to be resisted.

"Hore, sou, you turn arouud hero.” Thoro was a feeble remonstrance on tho son's part, to which not the slightest attention vras paid.

After a good many struggles tilio succeeded in doing so. “Now, pa," ahesaid complacently, “you try one." Nothing loath pa obeyed, and soon ho stood proudly beside hex'. “ 'Sposo we jist keep ’em ou till we Inn,” suggested ma. This thoy agreed to do. “No kno’vin what’ll happen,” pa said significantly.

A singular fact with regard to an unsuspected property of cheese, which has heon accidentally discov ered, is interesting to chemists aside from its hygienic bearings. . It ap pears that nickel plated ware, which is deservedly in favor with house keepers on account of its durability, its haudsome appearance and the ease with which it is cleaned, is at tacked more energetically by cheese than even by vinegar or lactio add. All kinds of cheese are found to produce this effect in the same, de gree; oven when dry any of them will eat into a nickel plated salver in lesi* than twelve horn's. Since or dinary cheese shows a decidedly neutral reaction when treated with litmus paper, it was supposed that the trifling amount of baldriabic add which it contains would he insuffi cient to account for the phenomenon. This assumption, however, tmxis out to be eiToneous, for, ns tho result of direct experiment, it is found that nickel is speedily con-odeil by baldri- anie add.—Pittsburg Di«i>atch.

Throe Remarks About Murrluge. James Lane Allen has a story en titled “John Gray,” in which he has three remarks to make apropos to the subject of mnrringe; “Some women in marrying demand ull and give all; with good men they are happy; with base men they are broken hearted. Some demand everything and give little; •with weak men they are tyrants; with strong men they are divorced. Every bachelor is really the hnsband of an old maid. For every single man carries around with him the spirit of a woman to whom he is more or less happily wedded. When a man actually marries, this inner help mate wisely disappears in the presence of her external contemporary." llMoterta In Croton Water.
