TEE TEN TRAVELLERS.
Ten weary, footsore travellers,
All in a woeful plight,
Sought shelter ata wayside inn
One dark and stormy night.
"Nine rooms, no more," the landlord
said,
"Have I to offer yon ;
To each of eight a single bed',
But the ninth must serve for two."
A din arose. The troubled host
Could only scratch bis head,
For of those tired men no two
Would 000upy one bed.
The putted host was soon at ease—
He was a clever man.
And so to please his guests devised
This most ingenious plan :
Ten B I C l I I E -1—F I GTE
H 11`2
In room marked A two men were
planed,
The third was lodged in B,
The fourth to 0 was then assigned,
The fifth retired to D.
In E the sixth be Molted away,
In F the seventh man,
The eighth and ninth in G and H,
And then to A lie ran
'Wherein the host, as I have said,
Had laid two travellers by ;
Then taking one, the tenth and last,
He lodged him. safe in I.
Nine Bingle rooms, a room for snob,
Were made to serve for ten ;
And thie it is that puzzles me
And many wiser men.

sinus,
That. saying both witty and: true ?
"The whole world is covered with leather
To him who is shod with a shoe."
Fine oalfekin or kid or,mor0000,
Groat cavalry boots armed with steel,
The d'aintisst; jauntiest slippers,
Coarse brogues tumbled' down at the

What matter the different. fashions 2
The richest and poorest of yon

A little maid cheery and sweet,
Who daintily tribe, yet I see not
What leather she wears on her foot
For I knots by her sonny eyes' sparkle,
And by; the calm came of her month,
And by the kind grace or her manners,
Like warm brume fresh from the
South,
I know that wherever her foot falls

Wbile somber oaks their browse and tags

Upon the maple, wbiob she levee, she

And that is why the year around we

RL' PALLATION.
A little negro gamin passing along Bay
street eaw the stump of a oigar fall on
the sidewalk in front of the store of El-
lis ck Hussy. He made a second base
slide for it, and when he had it safely.
corralled beneath him, he rolled his eyes
around the pointe of the compass to see
if,. another gamin had also seen the
stump fall.
"Dat war in Cuba is making Havanae
ekace, an' you can't take no chances," he
remarked, as he brushed off the ashes and
blew away the sand and dust from the
coveted snipe. Going into the store he
said to Charley ]31lie :—
"Bose, gimme a snatch, please nab."
"Matches are nob here to give away,
but to sell," said Mr. Ellie assuming a
look of intense severity.
"Deh is, eh ?"
"That's what they are."
"Well, how much is day er box'?"
"One cone."
The gamin tilted the stump in one
corner of his mouth, held to the band of
his pantaloons with one hand, ran the,
other hand iu his pooket and pulled forth
a Dapper.
"Gitnrne a bon," and he laid down the
cent.
He got the box, struck a match, lit the
stump so well that it poured forth vol-
umes of smoke, and then heeded the box
book to kir. Ellie, assented a look of in-
tense severitude, and said
'Put dab box on de shelf, and do nes'
time gammen ooms in hyar to ax yer ter
a match, you gin him one outen my box."
