He took it with a smile of innocence that would borrow a dollar at any place, and said: "Thanks, boss."

- ' Social and Personal
Social and Personal Since the intirodaotdon of the Rates Bill Mr- Chaplin, according to "Bailyhooiy," ha.s been known lli yachting circles as "tbe haJf- j later." [Mr. Seloup, who has figured so prominently in the stories of the Bultiwayo figlhte and forays. is said to be highly respected by the natives in the ri en regions. One story, which it is interesting to recall, is that he has been known throughout South Africa as "the man who never told a lie." John L. Sullivan has been enlarging on the subject of Napoleon. Here are some of his sentiments:—"I admire a man who is at the head of his business. That's why I like Napo- leon. He did all the others fe.tows up, good and hard. Napoleon was aM right. He was a very clever chap" What a proud moment for the shade of the Great Corsican! Sir Donald Smith, the new High Commis- sioner for Canada, is a native of Elginshire, but left Scotland at an early age to take a post in the Hudson's Bay Company. He is a leading banker and a railway potentate of Montreal, and has played a considerable part in the com- mercial development of the Dominion. The publication of a new Life of Sheridan, the greatest Parliamentary wit we have ever had. reminds us of several of his most famous mots and ironies. Perhaps his greatest was on (the historical occasion when Burke flung the knife on the floor of che House. "But where's th, fork?" asked Sheridan in a loud whisper to a friend. We have come to the conclusion that Mr. "William Watson, is a born pessimist. His view of England's utter degradation is noto- rious and likewise his view of Turkey's. And now here he is vowing ii), his latest sonnet in the "Westminster" that Russia is r'Oh, fall'n indeed." Has he not a decent; word to say for any country in (the world-' TI10 w;c-.¿>¡ c^«t 5 who k.now everything Are spreading the story that Mr. Balfour has got into the. habit of talking aloud to himself. Non.e of his remarks are quoted, but it is belie/ed that they have included some mystical references to "the whole t,ime of the House." The cynics are drawing attention to the fact that since he defied the bold sprite Superstition as a leading member of the Thirteen Club, Mr. Harry Furniss has besn a trifle unlucky. He l?ft "Punch," he failed as "Lika. Joko," he Was unhappy with the "New Budget," and he is not exactly felicitous with his Parliamentary illustrations for the "Daily News." Curious, is it not? Though English classics arc generally a-ore- c-iatcd in Germany, the readers of the Father- land display a very slight interest in the xiiiglish writers of the day. Kipling is the only one who has secured any appreciable attention, and even he is bint a name to the general German public. ilt is singular that of American authors 4 Bret Harte and Mark Twain are widely popu- lar, and; that the former is thought of "just as if lie were a German." While in the country we waste our breath and our pens in more or less academic discus- sions about the New Woman, her reality and her possibilities, our practical eisterr: out Kansas way have gone to the heart of the question, shown that they are "ail there," and deter- mined to rule right along the line. They have gained complete control of the important city of Ellis as the result of the late municipal elec- tions. They elected a woman for the mayoral post, and sent a member of the fair sex to every place on the city council. And yet some of us hereabouts claim that we are advanced. Why, we are leagues behind the times. In his "Sheridan: a.Biosrauhy," just pub- lished by Bentiey, and containing a preface by Lord Dufferin. Mr. W. Frazer Rae reminds us that, o nthe occasion of the great trial at West- minster of Warren Hastings, Sheridan spoke for five hours and a half. Before this extror- dinary Parliamentary performance the greatest efforts of Mr. Gladstone and of Mr. Sexton pale. A correspondent writes that the oyster trade is now gradually improving once more. Next year oysters, it is anticipated, will be cheaper, through a.n abundance in the supply of natives, than they have been for over ten years-as low probably as half a crown a dozen. Dr. Bu'l- strode, by the way, is stil lemployed in draw- ing up his report on the question of whether oysters are ever responsible for typhoid.

Lack of money wrecks mere married people than lack of love. Herdso: Is your youngest at the safety- pin age?" Mrs. Saidso: "No; safety bicycle." "The better half," says the married cynic, "is so called because she usually gets the better of the other half." Lea: Great heavens, old man, I have sut- I fered three days and' nights of sleepless agony I from thi^ aching toothache. Perkins: Why] don't you get it pulled?

Jinks: "I don't know how you will feel about it, sir, but the fact is that my wife, your daughter, is a dreadfully hard woman to live wirth." -NIT. Blink?: "I can sympathise with you, sir, I I' married her mother. Probably a man never feels so small as when his wrife comes to him and says1: "My dear, Johnny ean't wear your cast-off clothes any more. They're too little for him." I No," he said, "I don't think marriage is a failure." "Are you a married man?" asked a sad-eyed woman across the table. Not much; I'm a divorce lawyer." "Come, dear, kiss my cheek and make it up," she said forgivingly. I'll kiss it," lie answered, "but I don't think it wants any more making up And he was right. A case in point.—'Wade: "Do you believe, with these scientific fellows, that- disease can be communicated by handshaking?" Butcher: "I dtinno; there's the grip." Watts: "Do you think anyone can lie as stingy as old Fox and be a Christian ?" Potts t "Oh, poesiblv. I should not be surprised to hear of the old man saving his soul merely from motives of economy." Wife: "Henry, dear?" Husband: "Weli?" Wife: "I want to make a, bargain with you. If you will let me have £ 2 this afternoon I vill let you do £ 3 worth of grumbling about my extravagance." "Doctor," said the sufferer, supinely, as he dropped into the dentist's chair- "my nerve is completely gone." "Oh, no, it isn't," was ? the cheerful reply. "Wait till I get a. firm hold, and you'll realise your mistake." He Agreed With Her.—Mrs. Scrapeleigh: "Bah! I've made a different man of you since I married you." Mr. Scrapieigh "I Lt ve you have. Very different, indeed diffe- rent that now I can't eee what in the world ever possessed me to marry you." It is recorded of a young fop who visited one of the ICodischilds that he was so proud of his n alachite sleeve buttons that he insisted upon exhibiting them to his host. The latter locked at them a.nd said: "Yes. it is a pretty stone, I have a mantel-piece made of it in the next room." "How on earth did Hunker get out of his engagement with Aliss Eldier after he fell in love with Miss Scaddte ?" "It was done by a judicious selection of a birthday present." "What did he send1 her?" "He sent her a book entitled 'How to grow old gracefully,' and «he ttent his letters and ring back immediately." "You ought to take some rest," said the sympathetic friend. "Can't you go fishing, or s'/mcthing like that?" "Well," replied Mc. Weary, "I'm going! duck-hunting pretty soon." "Where?" "Up Bold-street. My wife has seien a. duck of a bonnet that I have to go in pursuit of." First Pedestrian (regarding passing cyclist): Jove! that cyclist is a tine-looking young fellow.—Second Pedestrian Young fellow ?— young lady, you mean.—First Pedestrian Non- sense I say it's a young ma n !—Second Pedes- trian: No, it isn't—can't you see the cycle is a lady's, not a gentleman's wheel?" "If a girl is anxious to marry-" began the maid. "Yes?" said the woman A the world, encouragingly. "If she is anxious to marry and marry well, from the point of view of society, I suppose she would prepare her- self as she would for a profession ?" "Cer- tainly." "There are some things that she should cultivate assiduously, and others to which ski need devote little attention?" "There are." "Well, what would you advise her to cultivate porticularly ?" "A wealthy relative who is likely to die soon." The question of umpires' decisions recalls an occasion when Shrewsbury was given out by a palpable mistake on the part of the umpire. A friend went up to him and said: "I say, Shrewsbury, I feel wild about that beastly, un- fair decision." "Aren't you angry?" "Oh, no," replied Arthur, smilingly. "It is true, I ought not to have been given out. but there are 4 many occasions en which I have been given in ,when I ought to have been out. You can't get infallible unmires, and [ find that the bad .uek and good arc evenly balanced." "I say, old man, what'i* that awful row going on next door?" "Ob, that's the Omphaio Club. The ladiefl are having their first whist party of the season." "No, Herbert," she said in a low tone, "it is inqiossible. I fear to trust my future with you." "And why?" "I have watched your conduct closely. It lacks the mark of such devotion as my soul craves." "Do I net com £ to see you four nights in the week i" Yes but I have detected- a calculating selfishness in your 'nature which I fear." "What do you mean?"

- f From Far ?and Near
f From Far ? and Near Coffins of heavy plate-glass, hermetically sealed, are being used in America. It is said they are more sanitary than the other kind. Chess-playing is popular with the members jf the House of Commons. Lord Warkworth appears to be one of the best players. A Bond-street tobacconist has made the iiirious, and somew'hat interesting, statement bhat L15 of his weekly oa-sh comes from lady- lovers of the weed. There is at present both in England and Wales quite a number of emissaries from the French a.rmy. who are purchasing horses at ill the fairs. The animals are for remounts. Our Colony of Victoria is a great butter- producing community. Showing thjl- rapid development of the industry resulting from care taken in exporting a first-class article, the following figures may be quoted: — Amount of butter exported from Victoria. 1889 326,821 lbs. 1890 .u. 1,700,596 „ 1891-2 4,791,613 „ 1892r3 8.094,255 „ 1893-4 17,140,980 „ 1894-5 25,986,447 „ A large additional number of new creameries and butter factories are being built through- out the colony, and next season will witness a very great expansion of exports. In connection with the new train de luxe between Ostend and St. Petersburg, the In- dependance Beige" points out that with the completion of the trans-Siberian Railway in 1900 the tour of the world in 30 days will be- come an accomplished fact. The timee of transit between London and St. Petersburg will be 45 hours, the journey to Port Arthur being performed in 250 hours. From here the stea.mers of a Russo-American Company now in course of formation will convey the traveller to San Francisco in seven days, whence ten days will suffice for the return to London. The entire fare is calculated! to cost from 250 to B80. Miss Brown, one of the Camberwell guar- dians, is evidently a strong believer in the custom of taste and try." She made a surprise visit to the workhouse one day, and tasted the soup giver to the inmates. Not liking the look of it, she took a sample in a small mug, and produced it at the next board meeting with the .request that the guardians vintl the pressmen present should smell and taste for themselves. But no one would taste, and even the chairman declined to act as taster for his fellow guardians. Evidently Camber- well guardians have little belief in the ex- cellence of parochial cookery. Another item from Louisiana shows how the negroes are practically disfranchised. On the day when all men had to register, if they wished for votes, 300 armed1 men took posses- sion of all avenues of approach to the registry oflice at Palmetto, and announced that any black coming near would be killed. Not a negro came, and they have all lost their votes. Not satisfied with that, the white mob pro- ceeded then on a punitive expedition, flogged several negroes unmercifully because they had reg-istered early in the day before the armed party arrived, and wound up by shooting a couple of them. So much for United States civilisation!
