“Fool!!!” at m manta Lawson, u. r. (The Archbishop of Canterbury said that he considered alcohol to be “ food.” March 3, 1893.) Beer! Beer! Beautiful beer!

Beautiful beer l The stay and support of the spirituous peer. Benevolent Brewers the people have fed With the primert of beer, which is better than bread; it keeps all the gaols and each workhouse afloat, And always secures the Conservative vote. St. Stephen’s is filled with the product, we hear; Noble Lords. as we know, are created by Beer. Beer! Beer! Powerful beer!

Of all the handy helps to housekeep- ars I hold ammonia the cheapest and the best. A piut'bottle costing but ten cents at the druggist’s will rob cleaning of half its terrors, for it is a positive enemy to grease and dirt, efi'acing all such spots with a magical touch. The dining-room carpet has a few unsightly grease spots, has it '? Dip your cleaning cloth into a basin of warm, clean suds into which a good spoonful of ammonia has been poured, and lightly rub the soiled parts. All grease and dirt will disappear, leaving the carpet freshened and bright. The good man's soiled cont collar can be restored to a present- able condition by the use of a sponge dipped in the ammonia without the use of soup and water. As all trace of odor at once disappears, it is pleasant to use and perfectly safe it kept from the neigh- borhood of fire, and from little children. Glass takes on a beautiful clcarness if a small amount is used in the water ; stains on paint leave on the first appli- cation. A tablespoonful in the boiler- iul of clothes whitcns them, and renders the water soft, while in the houseclean- ing it is invaluable, leaving behind that odor of cleanliness so encouraging to the worker. The. salts of ammonia are re- viving in case of faintucss, and very useful as a headache remody.~â€"-Ohio "armor. « â€"~~â€"-o . 0 Fire from the Skies. Big ships nowadays are usually equipped with a system of conductors running down the masts and so arranged asto carry oil" lightuirg into the sea. In old times fire from the skies was one of the most serious perils that threat- curd mariners, During fifty years, from 1700 to 1840, no fewer than 280 vessels of the British navy were struck, causing n has of $250,000, killing 100 men and badly injuring 250 more. When the protected ship is hit the electricity passes dot?“ the mast into the ocean, as wait-r runs clown a pipe. She may reel under the blow, but no damage results: One of the most severe encounters was that of II MS. Fisgard, which received such a trcnn-ndous discharge that the. vessel appeared covered with fire. At the same moment there was an explo- sion as if a broadside had been fired from t‘utrll side of the ship. but she suf lcxcd no injury.

Johnson had been to Nash his return brought “Ole Mose,” the favorite slave on the plantation, a new hat. 7 l 1 4could, but at last dr0p m~ WW... .. Negro Logic. 5’1. j: It was just before the wage ’Sqnire rule, and on Mose was very proud of it. The next Sunday the "squire was driving home from church with his family. and the carriage overtook Moss and his “ ole miss " trudging alum.r afoot. It was raining slightly, and the ‘squire noticed that Mose was barehcadetl and “as carefully protecting his new hat with his coat. “ Why don't you wear your new hat, Mose ? "' enquired the ’rquirc. “ You‘ll get that old head of yours Wet." “Dnt‘s so, .‘llms‘ Johnson," rrgvllnl Mose, “ but dat ole head‘s yours and do hat’s mine.” The ’rquire used to miss a chicken now and then. and at last the niysteri» ous disappearances were laid at the dolrr ol‘ouc ‘chicl, who was accused of tho thelt by his master. Zeke was a dorky of exceptional nit. He had picked upn little arithmetic. and prided himscll on his aoutencss. When charged with the chiokcn~tuking, he asked wnrily : V “ Now, Marse Johnson, if I can show you dot I only tuk dem fowls fur yoh good, will you let me go jus’dis time 1?" The ’squire was curious to hear his defense, and told him he would do so. “Well, you say you paid $900 for me, and I weigh just ’bout 150 pounds. But mnkcs'36 a pound. Now, il'I tur'n yoh chicken meat. dat ain't wufi moh'n ten cents a pound into nigger uncut dat's wuff 86, you jus’ dut much better off. Don't you see ?_ " Of course, the ‘squirc saw, and he used often to repeat the story and laugh at the darky’s ingenuity. ‘ ' The war came on, and Zeke was one day detailed off the t‘dunlation to help throw up someearthworks. The enemy obserVed the defensive preparations and began to shell the place. The first mis- siles went wide of the mark, but after at few rounds the range was found more accurately, and the shells began to burst uncomfortably close to ’Ztkiel. He stood his ground as long as he ped his shovel and ran for his life. The officer in charge of the operations met him a little distance down the road, and, haltng him, ordered him to explain his flight. Zeke was trembling with fright, but found breath to Say 2 ,“ Dcy’s shooting over dare, and Mars‘ Johnson he's a pooh man. He paid $900 for me in Memphis. and he Can't afford to have me killed.” And with that he took to the woods at the top of his speed. ‘ oâ€"â€"â€"-â€"._..L~ Liars Come High. It was such a bright boy who applied to the grocer for a job that. he thought he would give him a little talk just for a guy. ' “ If I hire you," he said, “ I suppose you will do what I tell you.” “ Yes, sir.” “If I told you to say the sugar was high grade when it was low, what would you say,” The boy never turned a hair. “ I’d say it," he responded promptly. “ If I told you to say the coffee was pure when you knew it had beans in it, what would you say ?” “ I'd say it " “ If I told you to say that the butter was fresh when you know it had been in the store for a month, what would you say '2" “ I’d say it." The merchant was nonplussed. “ How much will you work for? he inquired very seriously. “ One hundred dollars a week ?” an- swered the boy in a businesslike tone. The grocer came near falling off his stool. “ One hundred dollars a week?" he repeated in astonishment. “ With a percentage after the first two weeks,” said the boy coolly. “ You see," he want on, “ first class liars come high, and if you need them in your business you've got to pay them the price. Otherwise I'll work for 83 per,” and the boy had caught the grocer at his own game and got the job at 83 per. â€"â€"E:cchungc. Putting It Strong.
