• HIS READY WIT WON PLACE.
There is now iu t•he trench Chamber
as attar•hc of one of the ministerial de-
partments a young Ulan Who owes his
position to his native smartness- Xie
went up to Paris with a letter of intro-
duction to a Minister and was received
in the stereotyped fashion. He turned
un at the department daily. At length
the Minister noted his punctuality 'and.
by way of haying something asked the
young; man if, he would like to have his
photograph. The present was accepted
and the Minister overwlteinted with
thanks.
After receiving the photograph the
young mann absented himself altogether
from the bureau. Two months elapsed
and then there was a chance meeting in
the street. The Minister. smiling, asked
the suitor tine cause of his prolonged ab -
Renee.
"
b-
benee-
" \sun Dieu. Monsieur le Ministre.' was
reply. "I had your photograph and
'noke to it. and that was enough for
vena:' -And a hat did my photograph do
for von? What favors?" inquired the
Minister. "Ob. nothing. absolutely noth-
ing:' was. the quick repo-,. ' exaetic as
the original, so 1 knew the teiemblance
was perfeet."
The next day the youth of enterprise
received his appointment, and he is said
to be named for an under prefecture. --

"SOCIETY'S" !USES.
When you consider that there are
several papers in the land devoted to
nothing save the chonicles of society
folic—papers which thrive and prosper
you must pause and laugh, not at Societta
but at those who perpetually read of its
doings and chuckle over"• its grossly mis-
reported escapades. That "set" isnot
w orthless which supports a small array
of writers and editor, and printers' and
proofreaders, newsdealers and paper
manufacturers. .A. playwright once told
us that he hadnever until recently
con-
sidered.
how much machinery the pro-
duction of one of his plays Set in. motion,
and ho whurnble he felt at the thought
of the number of people his brain child-
ren supported—actor,d so o n ushers., scene shift-
ers, 'ticket sellers, a
e n down
far
the line, And the giving of a ball in the
season starts many other ball a -rolling.
It puts money into caterers' pockets, and
you never hear the florist and cab
drivers complaining. So even Society,
brainless as it may be, has a certain use
in the world. and many of us have not
only talked of it, but written of it—for
some of the very lucre we condem it for
possessing.—Charles Hanson Towne in

GLYCERINE INCREASES IN PRICE
During the Last 15 months, says Lon-
don Engineering. the price of glycerine
has risen over 50 per cent., and a few
days ago the highest priee on record
was touched., there being a further ad-
vance of d:5 per ton. 'This great rise in
price affetet, many industries, and is
said to he due largely to the scarcity
of fats and nils from which glycerine os
made ee n by-product in the manufac-

FOOLS IN SOCIETY.
Stevenge says somewhere: "Give nie

melte a fool of himself:" A young _soef-
ety man is reported as saying' that this
sentence' had' heartened him more than
any other in the language; that fre-
quently, before going to a dinner or a
cotillion, he would quote it to himself,
and take courage when he consciously
became a buffoon.
Now, no one ean be quite utterly a
fool who with malice aforethought puts
on the cap and bells; for to do so be-
tokens a real sense of humor, and luna-
tics have 110 hump.
They often have a knowledge of the
ridiculous, so far as their attitude to-
ward the world is concerned, .but they
are absolutely devoid of true humor. 1'f
we label ourselves fools, we immediate-
ly disarm others of similar eritidism;•h if
we mention aur ow+n clefeets, we at once
silence our enemies; who really, in
speaking of our physical deformities, re-
veal the fact that they lack humor • and

Insuring the Life of Dogs.
The good people of Frankfort seem to•
have gone one better than the recent in-
novation of Lloyd's to insure against
bad weather during the holidays. The
Frankforters have started a company
to insure the life of dogs. Whether .the
policies are for endowment or annaities,.
or for death only, we do not know, nor
is the name of the company given, but a
Paris contemporary suggests that it will
probably be the "Hundenlebenversieher-'
unggessellschaft„" or something ap-
proaching it.
The idea of insuring children's lives is
not pleasant, but the prospect of making
money out of the death of the friend of
man is more repellent. Such an idea was
not in the notion stage when Lamartine•
declared "The more 1 see of them, the
more I love dogs." 1f it had been the
aphorism would probably have been
more scathing.--•-Lonclon Globe.
