An interesting one was told the oth er day by a retired politician, a warm friend and great admirer of the general. During the Grant ad ministration a bloody shirt Repub lican,. hearing that Miss Jackson, the daughter of the famous James Jackson, Ellsworth’s slayer, was bolding an office under the govern ment, secured her discharge and the appointment of one of his constit uents to her position. The fatal envelope announcing her dismissal brought great distress to the poor girl, who was the breadwinner for a number of people, and she hardly knew which way to turn. Friends finally advised her to go directly to the president and lay the matter be fore him. This was a difficult thing for a sensitive young woman, who understood and ' appreciated the prejudice that existed against her, to do^ but there was no alternative, and she courageously sought out General Grant and told him her story. He was indignant at the treatment she had received and promised her an immediate rein statement. His first request to her former chief was returned with the indorsement, "There is no vacan cy.” To this General Grant replied with a brevity for which he was fa mous : "Then make a vacancy. This government is too powerful and too magnanimous to wage war on wom en and orphans.” — Washington Post. A Doubtful Remark.

The Disappearing Ball. With a sharp penknife whittle a large cork in the form of a ball about an inch in diameter. Take a human hair and form a loop in it about one and a half inches long, affixing the ends to the ball with a little wax or, better still* by forcing the ends into the cork. How pass the forefinger of your right hand through the hair loop, letting the hall lie on the palm when you show it. Place your left hand over the right and at the same time separate the forefinger from the second of your right. Qnickly push the ball with the thumb of the right hand between the open fingers. The ball falls at the back of the hand, which you keep in such position that the company cannot see the ball hang ing behind. Remove the left hand closed as if it contained the ball. Then open the hand and show it empty. With a little dexterity you may with a quick jerk throw the ball over your hand from the back into the palm and c show that it has re turned. For this you must make a movement as if catching it in the, air. How break off the hair and give the ball to the company for ex amination. What English Boys Read.
