A friend of yours and mine has very Justly defined good breeding to be “the result of much good sense, some good nature and a little self denial for the Bake of others, and with a view to oh talu the same Indulgence from them.” Taking this for granted—as I think it cannot be disputed—it is astonishing to me that anybody who has good sense and good nature can or initially fail In goo I breeding. As to the modes of It, Indeed, they wiry according to per eons, places and circumstances and are on ly to he a (i .fired by observation and experience, but the substance of it is everywhere and eternally the same. Good manners are to particular socle ties wluit good morals are to society hi general their cement and security. And ns laws are cnqctod to enforce good morals or at least to prevent the ill effects of bad ones, so there are cer¬ tain rule* of civility, universally im¬ plied and received, to enforce good manners and punish bad ones.—Ches terfield.

Om^ of the early visitors was a remarkably fat man, who found himself wedged into the areh when he tried to squeeze through and was extricated v.i.h some difficultly. Th bu i 1 ders, rccognizing the possibi 1 ' y of other fit people bo Ing numhereil among the future vis¬ itors, decided to widen the arch, sac¬ rificing symmetry and harmony to practical need, as the pier.was so con¬ structed as to bear no loss of width %n one of its sides. New York Globe. Caribou Horns. Kot one out of every ten female cari¬ bou has horns. When they do have them, they we much smaller than those of the bull. The horns of the female have, however, in general many more branches than those of the bull, and they are ranch more regularly a.nd finely formed. The cows carpy tliolr horns much longer than the bulls. They have been seen with their horns In the month of April. The old bulls shed their horns from the 10th U> the hist of November. They hardly ever carry them afier the month of Novem¬ ber. The young hulls shed theirs from the first of Dcoerttbcr until the middle of February. The younger the animal the longer lie retains his horns. The Mae With the Wooden Hat. A young Scotsman was shown into the office of a great engineer at Bir¬ mingham. He was wearing a hat of extanordinary shape, and at his nerv otisness at mooting the man of fame he let the hat slip. It fell with a hollow thud upon tin> floor. The engineer look¬ ed with astonishment at the thing. The u v.'ner picked it up and apologized if for the noise it had caused, was of wood, he explained, He had made it himself, turning it with his father's L the.

Children In Pliny’s Day. It was uot a modern American writ¬ er who, discussing the chixksn, wrote of them thus: “How many are there who will give place to a man out of respect to. his ago and dignity? They are sbrew'd turn already and know i everything, They in of no are awe body, but take t hem selves for their I own example.” These were*the words i of Pliny the younger* used in one of S his famous letters during the first ! Christian century, but they will strong¬ ly apply to much of the young Amer¬ ica of today. Hugo and Verdi. Verdi labored long before he per¬ suaded Victor Hugo, who was vexed that the tragic beauties of Ms “Le Koi S’Ain use” had been turned into operatic effects, to attend a perform nuce of “Rigoletto.” He succeeded at length,Hind Hugo sat in the box with the composer and listened to the op era. But not a word did he speak, N'ordils impatience got the better oi him. and lie asked; “Well, what say you—about the quar¬ tet. for instance?"

It may a littie more time to go around and come back up, but “make haste slow¬ ly” is said to be tfae first axiom of trout fishing. As the stream becomes warmer, the trout seek the cool pools and shaded places, They are to be found where a cold spring bubbles up Into the stream or where a mountain creek enters. Often a number freciuent the same haunt. Each additional fish means two more eyes to watch for the fisherman. One trout is all that is nec essary to give a danger signal by darting away. The rest immediately follow suit. To catch more than one. or even that, in such a place takes skill in the use of the line. But who has said that trout fishing is not an art?— Circle Magazine.

In various national cos¬ tumes, and wherever Dragonetti went the dolls were sure to go. That was only one of this eccentric genius’ pecul¬ iarities.
