It appears that in the postotiice de- partment at Berlin, if a clerk wishes a new lead pencil. he must turn in to the proper authority the stamp of the one that has become. too short for further use. In one case a clerk received his new pencil without returning the end of the old one. and before this error was dismvered this clerk had been transferred to another otiice. Shortly after the assumption of his duties at his new post this clerk received an of- ficial intimation that he had neglected to turn in his pencil end. By this time, however, the end had disappeared. In order to avoid official reprimand, the resourceful clerk purchased a new pen- cil, cut off a piece about the length of the missing end and dispatched it to the stationery department. Everybody was accordingly satisfied.â€" Harper’s Weekly. More Rehable. "va.

A diverting picture of Swinburne. his frock coat bulging with mantlscript. waiting to be asked to read aloud his latest D091". is given in Cdmund Gosse's “Portraits and Sketches." After floating about the room and greeting his host and hostess with many little beaks of the head and af- fectionate smiles and light wavings of the fingers. he would settle at last up right on a chair. or by preference on a sofa, and sit there in a state of rigid immobility. the toes of one foot pressed against the heel of the other. Then he would say in an airy. detached way. as though speaking of some absent per- son, “I have brought with me my ‘Tha- lassius' or my 'Wasted Garden' (or whatever it might happen to be), which I have just finished.” Then he would be folded again in silence. looking at nothing. We then were- to say, “Oh. do please read it to us! Will you “t" Pairing Off For Dinner. The custom of walking to the dining room arm in arm. “taking a lady in to dinner.” strange though it may seem, is comparatively modern, as prior to the middle of the eighteenth century it was the custom for the hostess to go in to dinner first, the ladies followfng in order of rank and the gentlemen after, all in single file, also in the order of rank, the host being last. This. how- ever. gave rise to so many duels on questions of precedence both among the ladies and the gentlemen that the custom of “pairing at!" was begun in order that no dispute might arise. it being one or the customs of society that no duel challenge could be given inthopraenceottheladyconcerning whom the dispute had arisen-New York American. 3 pkgs (fillets Lye fm ...... . 3 pkgs.
