He greeted me in his ushal kindly manner ; we spoke 0 t e b tile fraud and the losses sustained b p ople of the town, and I never g ess d that- the shade of sadness on lis g ntle old face was caused by other an iis sympathy for others. superintending the roast, or helping the host to dish up the dinner, and finally waiting on themselves, and enjoying the whole affair like a set of schoolboys. ' I remember the particulare of one feast, as related to me by one who was invited, along with four other guests, three 0 them being divines, and two ,uf veier high standing in the University : We found that Professor McIntyre had set the table by himself, teed as rico dishes were visible, we rather wondered what was coming. Presently a rap at the door announced the arrival—rather cooled by the journey—of six-, pen4- worth of broth, contained in six little white basins with covers to them, ac- companied each by a slice of bread of the same value. These being distribut- ed and disposed of, there arrived in succession, six pennyworth of meat; ditto potatoes; ditto French beans ; ditto sweeties.' The latter, at Luckie Gourley's, was a comprehensive term not of necessity implying peppermint drops, or bulls' -eyes, but in the present instance consisted of a little jam tart for each guest. Each received his exact portion—there was no' Benjamin am'ong the company—and the repast proceeded amid a constant fire of repartees and stories, and dry old Scottish jokes, ,Dr. McIntyre beaming on all mildly, throlugh his spectacles, the very picture Qf placid enjoyment. "One of the guests—beariiig a name well-known in the world of letters—said to me going home, that he had never enjoyed a dinner party so muth in his life, adding regretfully, that it recalled the days when he was a bejan in the undimmed lustre of his new scarlet gown." Few people ever mentioned the Pro- fessor's son. His loss had been the great trial of the old man's life—greater even than that of his wife, which soon followed. Robert McIntyre had begun his university career with great promise, a fresh, bright, lovable soul, a great favorite with his class -mates, and all who knew him. He was drowned while bathing under the East Cliff, caught in one of the treacherouscurrents that wind in and out among the rocks, and hurried out to sea, and his body washed ashore near Kingask, two days later. None but Ms closest friends knew what the blow had been to his father. Some of us, in later years, would feel half awed when in course of cOnversation he would mention " Rob " in a casual way, as though he had just left the room, and might return any minute. But Mr. Duncan has told me that he used often to speak of him quite simply and tieturally, as if in full persuasion. that Robert was with him still, and that in any caw -the separation was only a slight and temporary ohe. I think that —whatever we profess to believe—our carefully solemn and somewhat formal way of referring to the dead covers a real want of faith, or at least': of power to realize our faith. No one was more contented than Dugald. McIntyre. He never complain- ed of anything, perhaps because he never felt or noticed many things which most people would have considered legitimate ground for complaint. But he had one great wish—a wish so ardeet, and at the same time to his simple 'Died so extravagant, that he was troubled with grave doubts as to whether it might not be wrong. He was reassured on this point by Mr. Duncan, to [whom lie confided it, but he never dared to enter- tain more than a faint and trembling hope of its accomplishment. . His heart's desire was neither more nor less then a journey to Palestine. It had been the dream of his youth ; then mother," she declared; and the man - Solomon's Judgment in Chinese. Two women came before a mandarin in China, each of them protesting that she was the mother of a little child they had brought with them. They were so eager and so- positive that the -'mandarin was sorely puzzled. He retired to con - suit with his wife; who was a wise and clever woman, whose opinion wa.e held in great repute in the neighborhood. She reeteested five minutes in which to deliberate. At the end of that time she spoke: - "Let the servants catch me a large fish in the river, and let it be brought me here alive." This Was done. "Bring me now the iulant," she said, "but leave the two women in the outer chamber." This was done, too. Then the man- darin's wife caused the baby to be un- dressed and its clothes put on the fish. "Carry the creature outside now, and throw it int e the river in the sight of the two women." The servant obeyed her orders, fling- ing the tiSh into the water, where it rolled about and struggled, disgusted, no doubt, by the wrappiug in which it was swaddled. Without a moment's pause one of the mothers threw herself into the river with a shriek. She must save her drowning child " Without doubt she is the true darin's wife cen.ma,nded that she should be rescued_ and the child given to her. "Without a doubt she is the true mother,' she declared, and the mandarin nodded his head and thought his wife theeviseat woman in the Flowery King- dom. _Meantime the false mother crept away. She was found out in her impos- ture, and. tho mandarin's wife forgot all about her in the occupa.tion of don- ning the little baby in. the best silk she Gould fine in her wardrobe.—London Academy.

It is needless to say there is Ilittle room for the nextfifty years for any competition such as is perhaps in - 'tended or intended for sale. From per- sonal inquiry we find that no person, director or otherwise, in the Bell Com- pany has ever received any bonus on his stock, and that that company has never sold a share below par for stock gam- bling purposes. It is not to be supposed therefore that any of the new concerns can plaee the shareholders in a better condition. Again the Bell Telephone Conepany, with its 4,000 or 5,000 miles of lines, connecting cities and towns, offers to its subscribers facilities which no ther telephone company can furnish. Th Bell Telephone Company's divi- dends, with the practical monopoly of the past eight years, average about 5 per cent.
