Rosetti's Breakfast Did Not Suit Fastidious Author. In hid carly days it was suggested to Mr. Meredith, the novelist, that he should take up his residence with Ros- setti, 'at Queen's House, Cheyne Walk. The novelist agreed to take a couple ol rooms, and, one morning, shortly alter Rossetti had moved in, Mr, Mere- dith; who was living in Mayfair, drove over to Chelsea to inspect his new apartments. "lt was past noon," re- lates Mr. Meredith; 'Rossetti had not yet risen, though it was an exquisite day. On the breakfast table in a huge dish rested five thick slabs of bacon, upon which. five rigid eggs had slowly bled to death ! Presently Rossetti ap- 1 in dressing gown, with slip- pors down at heel, and devoured the dainty repast like an ogre."" This de- cided Mr. Meredith, He did not even trouble to look at his rooms, but sent in a quarter's rent that alternoon and remained in Mayfair. ; The Tune Money Talked. New York Telegram. y a There is a broker's wife residing within, pistol shot of the Majestic who learned a lesson in finance this week, which, she says, will last her awhile, She saw a pretty rug down town and expressed a wish for its pos- session. . "We don't need it for the moment," she told her husband, "but 1 am perfectly fascinated with it, and I'd like to own it--against the tune when we own our house. Please write me a check for the amount----8600." The broker is a man of means, but even men of means have looked twice and even thrice of late befdre buying $600 s that were not of immediate service, This broker, however, is a judge of human nature--or else he wouldn't be a success in his line of business--and he saw a line of escape. "I haven't my book with me," he glibly 'said, "but I'll send you the money as soon as I pet down town." And he did. He sent his clerk to the bank with instructions, loaded him up with $600 in silver, and sent him up tothe house. When the man 'arrived he asked to be shown to the room, and without a word the contents of the sack in i i It made a foundry of Clark and (lark and stealing therefrom a quantity of cop- per fixtmes. Cody got sixty days, ! Steadman five months, and Genereaux nine months. COULDN'T KEEP HER PET. Wanted to Find Out What Arma- dillo Meant. "Do you permit animals in the rooms ?"' asked a tall, spare woman, dressed in the height of fashion, as she peered over the counter in the of- fice of the Albany hotel at "Sam" Dutton, the manager. "No, madam, we do not," said Dut- ton, politely. "We occasionally allow them to be placed down in the base ment, but we're not keen about hav- ing them at all." "Well, I wouldn't like to leave dear little Kitty down in any old stuffy basement," the woman said. "'Some- thing might happen to him." "Oh, 1 hardly think replied Dutton. 'Cats are about as safe an animal to put in the basement as any- thiog else.' "Oh, Kitty isn't a cat," said the wo- man. "Dog ¥"' queried Dutton, "No." » ' so," Dogs and cats are about the only animals that come within the ken of Detton, and he paused, embarrassed. "This is a pet armadillo," explained the woman, holding up a basket, and starting to take the cover ofi." "Never mind, lady," hastened Dut- ton. 'I'm sorry. but we have an espe cial rule against armadillos in this house. Why, do you know, the last armadillo we had ate up a large see- tion of stove pipe, and it cost us quite a little to repair the damage. Besides that, we do not like the have amphibi- ous animals about the basement' But the woman departed in high dudgeon, and the last seen of Dutton he had a copy of Webster's dictionary on his knee and was running his fing- ers down a page, murmuring-- "A-r-m-a-arma--armadillo ; arm I'll fine out what a blémed armadillo is if it takes me all day." Tooth Doctoring In China. North China Daily. "Right in front of us om the street on a doctor's table isa small heap of teeth, not manufactured by any cun- ning workman, but by the subtle al- chemy of nature.

Edward Spendlove came to a peculiar looking tree anfl struck it with an axe he was carrving. Instantly a quantity of sap spurted from the tree, striking the man in the face and entering his eyes. The dap had the properties strong acid and burned it way the eyeballs and into the flesh of the face. Spendlove was blinded, and physicians here sav that his eves have been permanently injured, and that he will never see again. He will be tak en to his home The tree is thought to be a species of poison oak. The natives in tha part of Mexico have known of thd dangerous properties' of the sap for many years. ---------- Bishop Ingram And Temperance. The Bishop of London has won gen eral admiration amongst supporters of the government for Ins splendid cour age in upholding the licensing hill Our drinking customs which so shook our colonial visitors to the Old Coun try are, he said, a national disgrace We must diminish public houses if we would diminish the. curse of drink. He has hitherto voted consistently against liberal governments, but he hquored the present government for taking their life in their hands in proposiag this bill. 'The bishop will himself, if nobody else does, propose that Sun- day closing shall be applied to Lon- don. In the impressite pevoration he begged the Church of England not to be behind Noncopformists in this mat ter. What does the church exist for if not to save the world, But, in spite of this stirring appeal, the coun- cil defeated his resolution in support of the bill hy forty-six votes. Thus it seems the Church of England will al- low the Nonednformists to lead in this temperance crusade, and the Pis- hop London feels sore ahout this strange attitude of the church. ---- Time And Eternity.
