A tall man with a nose like a muffin went into a Main Street boarding house; one day last week, and asked for a din- ner.i "Owing to the general depression of business., and consequent sdarcity of the rhine," said the proprietor, looking the tall taa.n. over, "it will cost you 35 cents in advance." "I have nothing with me but a cheque on a Boston bank," observed the tall "qheques on Boston banks ain't worth a coppere" remarked the landlord. • "I guess you'll have to dine mere sumptuous- ly eleewhere." "Can't I do something for -my dinner ?" asked the tall man, as a hungry pang griped him. "You can pay," said the proprietor, inapressively. "you give me my dinner," said the tall man, "and I'll agree to clean your house of every rat in it. I have performed the feat in many hotels throughout the country, with the most satisfactory re- sults.' The proprietor accepted the bargain, as a mot advantageous one to himself, and theL tall man seateclihimself at the table, where he did fearful execution among the victuals.

The bar of iron was -procured, and the loafers gathered round to witness the in- terestiing proeeedings. "Now, begin," said the proprietor. "Where'll 3 -on commence first?"

A Honeymoon Adventure which Actually 1 Took Place. That the "course of true love never, did run smooth" we have Shakespeare's authority for, and a mass of confirmatory evidence in actual life as well. The fol- lowing amusing incident, however, oc- curred recently, after the barque of true love had weathered all the usual storms and arrived safely at the port of holy matrimony. The couple were from the township of Blenheim'County .of Ox- ford, and it had been d.etermined that, as a wedding jaunt, they should at least for once in their lifetime, visit our Pro- vincial capital, and see at least a day or two of city life. So far fiQ good. Be- hold them now bound in holy banns, and arrived and duly lodged atMr. and Mrs. So-and-so, in a conifortable hotel in the city of Toronto. In confirmation of another saw, however, -accidents will happen in the best regulated families -- some time during the night the lady was seized with an illness of a rather 'alarm- ing character, and the husband had, as a matter -of course, to undergo a rather early initiation of a husband's duty, by getting up to run for the doctor. That he did so with the Meet commendable zeal and devotion, there is not the small- est doubt, but, unfortunately, he forgot that he was not as well acquainted with the city as he was with the concession roads in the township of Blenheim, and rnshed into the street and got several blocks away before it began to dawn upon him that he had taken no note of the name of the hotel in which he had put up, nor noted the street in which it was located -and to make a long story short, that in point of fact he had lost himself. The upshot of it all was, that 8 he kept wandering about staring at the t signs, as daylight began to make them visible, and until business hours had set in, when one sign met his eye through f which a ray of hope began to glimmer. t The words on the sign were "Globe office." In addition to the claim of gen- eral brotherhood which all sound Grits have with the Globe, it so happened that an old acquaintance he knew to be in some capacity engaged on the staff, so being now about desperate, he, with a good Scotch tongue in his head, seized upon this clue to lead him out of his difficulty. The result, it is gratifying to say, ended with entire success. How the lady got ori -m her illness and during her desertion, does not appear, more than that the matter leaked .out after their return, and has afforded a good joke to the neighbors. If this incident w does not teach a moral lemon, it surely w serves as a warning to young people get- ting too far from home, especially when h about to commit matrimony. him for my instruction, I departed, un- der the conviction that in case taiplitrt- ment-was worth 20'shillings to a person • Who considered hinieelf an artiste it must be of the same not more, valuelto my- self. Im.pressecl with this conviction,the violin became myconstant travelling companion for a number of years. I could play half a , dozen Scotch airs, which served as an occasional amuee- ment, not eo much for the delicacy of execution as for the sonorous energy with which they were<executed.

During dinner I had been explaining to Mr. Gro, who spoke a little English, the nature_ Of the home -brewed ale, which he had tasted and much admired in England. In the evening we had music, and perceiving me admire his performance on the violin he inquired if I could play, to which I answered in the affirmative, when his instrument. was in a moment- in my hands, and I had no alternative but to play one of my beet tunes, the "-Keel Row, which the company lietened to with amazement; until my career was arreated by Mr. Gros calling out at the pitch of his voice, "Top; top, monsieur, by gad, dat be home -brewed Mtge - Life of Sir William Fairbairn. A Strange Story of Theft and ' Restitution. The hardware ifirm of J. W. Harper & Company, of Philadelphia, in 1865 em- ployed an agent named Martin to specu- late for them in oil lands, And entrusted him with $20,000 for the *pose. Mar- tin, however, absconded with the money, in company with a girl who had been tln3 chambermaid of the hotel at which he had been 'staying, leaving a wife and fkix children in Maryland. Two of the firm who had lost the $20,000 subse- quently died, and in 1873 the sur- vivor, William Harper, failed in busi- ness and removed to Forest county, Pa., where he has since lived in reduced cir- cumstances. 1 • About the 1st of last February friends of Harper in Philadelphia forwarded him a letter, addressed to the old firm, and postmarked San Francisco.. This leiter was from the absconding agent, Martin. He was in San Francisco, -and wrote that he desired to refund the money he had taken, and would do so if he was given immunity from prosecution. Mr. Harper started for California as soon as possible, and met Martin. He had fine apartments at an expensive boarding- house. - His companion, Mrs. Warren was still with him, and met Mr. Harper resplendent in jewels. Martin said that he had 'sailed at once for Peru after he absconded, and had engaged in opening silver mines in that country for a share of their product, and said that he was worth $2,000,000. He was intalifornia in business, and intended to return to Peru.He paid back to Harper. the sum of $36,000, representing the amount which he had stolen, with interest, and Harper has just returned home with the money. Were -Wolves. Last summer, there was a pic-nic un- der the trees quite near me, and I over- heard a tallish man in green glasees tell- ing a party of youngsters that according to the ancient myths, there used to be in certain countries wereaaolves, -per- sons who, throfith some bad influence, had changed into wild beasts. Just to think of it !It fairly made me hudder ; but the story -teller went on o say that these were -wolves often be- ame themselves again through a kind word, or by being recognized by their ellow-creatures. To illustrate this, he old the following legend :- " One -Christmas eve, a woman, whose husband had years before turned into a wolf and disappeared, went at night to the pantry to lay aside a joint of meat for to -morrow's dirmer. There she saw a wolf standing with its paws on the window-si:l, looking wistfully in at her. Ah, dearest,' said she, if 1 knew that thou wert really my husband, I would give thee a bone !" Whereupon the wolf. skin fell off, and .her husband stood be- fore her in the same old clothes that he had worn on the day when he had be- come a wolf." Ah, my beloved, I am afraid there are ere -wolves yet in the werld-men and omen, and even little bhildren, who hrough want and suffer:jug and vice, ave become brutal. But underneath he wolf -skin is the human heart, and a ind word in recognition of the fact that hey are still human will go a long way °ward changing them to their better elves. The old charm has not losk all ts power. Try it. I daresay you kids and boys may some daymeet with were- wolvcs,-coarse, gruff, brutish creatures. Don't be afraid of them, and, above all, don't speak rudely to them. Say a kind word to them, and see if the wolf -skin doesn't fall off. -S1. :Nicholas. Sir William Fairbairn's Fiddle. Finding the means at my disposal much t too scanty to enable me to makeea _be-- s ginning with my new orrery, Tturned my attention to music, and bought an old Hamburg fiddle, for which [gave half-a- -crown. This was a cheap argain, even for su4h a niserab1e instrument, and what w'ith ne, bracing of catgut and a music book I spent nearly a week's wages, a sum I could ill afford, -to be- come a distinguished musician. 1, how- ever, fresh rigged the violin, and, with a glue pot, carefully closed all the open- ings which were showing themselves be- tween the back and sides of the instru- ment. Having completed the repairs., I commenced operations ; and certainly there never was, a learner who produced less melody or a greater number of dis- cords. The effect was astounding, and, after tormenting the whole house with discordant sounds for two nionths, the very author of the mischief tumbled to pieces in my hands, to the great relief of every member of the family. I was not however, to be frustrated in my attempts to become a musician, and the old fiddle proving useless, I set to work with in- flexible determination and naa.de a new one. This operation cost me five week's hard labor, chiefly at night; and having made the necessary tools out of old hand saw files, I completed the violin. which, to. my astonishment emitted tones as loud and sonorous as an organ. Repeated discornfitures at last convinced me that na- ture never intended me for a fiddler; and, impressed with this opinion, I consulted an old man who played at weddings and other merry makings, as to what I should do. He advised meto become his pupil, and to bring my violin on the following night, when he had no doubt he could af- ter a few lessons make me an accom- plished -performer. Following this ad- vice, I repaired to his house; and after two or three lessons he offered twenty shillings for my violin, and advised me to abandon all thoughts of ever rising in the profession. After some considera- tion, I delined the offer ;. and having paid • As You Like It. Some time since a party of ladies and gentlemen went on a tour of inspection through Durham Castle. The "lions" were shown to them hy an elderly female_ of a sour, solemn, and dignified aspect. In the course of their peregrinations they came to the celebrated tapestry for which the castle is so famed. "These," said the guide, in true show- man style, flavored with a dash of piety to suit the subject, and pointing to several groups of figures upon _the tapestry -"these represent scenes in the life of Jacob." "Oh, yes -how pretty !" said a young lady; and with a laugh, pointing to two figures in somewhat close proximity, she continued, "I suppose that is Jacob kiss- ing Rachel ?" "No, madam," responded the indig- nant guide, with crushing dignity, "that is Jacob wrestling with the angel." The men haw -hawed, the young lady subsided, and offered no further expository remarks, but groaned under a sense of unworthiness during the rest of the visit. A COMMON cough or cold should never be trifled with; often when neglected it is converted into a serious and generally fatal pulmonary disease. The more pru- dent, aware of this, promptly use "Bry- an's Pulmonic Wafers," a curative which has sustained its reputation for over 20 years. They are always efficacious, and exert a most beneficial influence on all the bronchical and pulmonary organs.
