An Irishman and a Jew.
-There is an up town business 'firm, one of
the members of which is -an Irishman and
the other a Jew. The Irishman was born
in Cork and the Jew in Cracow. They have
been in -partnership for several years, dur-
ing which time they have built nis a flourish-
ing business. The Irishman is beardless ;
the Jew has a flowing black beard. The
Irishman is of the type of Rory O'Moore ;
the -Jew is of the type of Moses. ,
They are a mutual admiration. pair, and
each has a solid respect for the other. The
Irishman is a rare wit ; the Jew is soleinn
as the Talmud. The Irishman has a fine
Corkonian brogue ; the native speech of the
Jew is the Polish jargon, which he mixes
with his English.
The' Irishman looks after • the firm's
finances ; the Jew attends. to the buying
and selling. The Irishman is a,strict Catho-
lic and goes to church on Sunday ; the Jew
is rigorously orthodox and goes to sypa-
gogue on Saturda3r.
The Irishman is " pudgy," the Jew is
lean. They agreed never to talk upon re-
ligion, about which they disagree ; but, as
the one is :a bimetallic Democrat and the
other a Democratic monometallist, they can
always find a subject for friendly arguinent.
The Irishman is older than the Jew, but
the Jew is taller than the Irishman. Both
the Irishman and the Jew have large fami-
lies, and the children of both attend the
same school. Most of the off -spring of the
Irishman are girls; and most of those of the
Jew are boys.
The favorite tipPle of the Irishman is ale,
and that of the Jewis wine. The Irishman
is quick tempered ; the Jew is • slow to
wrath. These two business partners, one of
them from Cork and the other from Cracow,
have carried on their establishment snecess-
`fully for years. in the city, have divided the
profits evenly every quarter, have never had
a quatTel that, lasted more than a minute,
and have made enough money to raise them
above the cares of life. Stirely they de-
serve to grow rich. -New York Sun.

A Labor of Love.
More than a, hundred years ago, .in the
north ,of. Europe, stood an old cathedral,
upon one of the arches of which was a scol-
ptured face of wondrous beauty. It was
long hidden, until one day the sun's light,
striking through a slanted window, revealed
its matchless- features. And ever after,year
hy year, upon the days when for a brief
hoer it was thus,- illuminated, crowds ensile
and waited eagerly to catch but a glimpse of
that face. It had a strange history.
When the cathedral was being built, an
-old man, broken with the weight of years
and care, came and besought the architect
to let him work upon it. Ont of pity for
his age, but fearful lest his failing sight
and treinliiing t.ouch Might •mar some fair
design, the master set him to work in the
shadow's of the vaulted roof. One day they
found the old man asleep in death, the tools
of his craft laid ie oeder, beside him, the
cunning of his right haedgone, the face up-
turned to this other marvellous face which
he had wrought -the face of one . he bad
loved and lost. And when the artists and
sculptors and workmen from all parts of the
cathedra,' came and looked epee that face,
they said, " This is the grandest work of
all ; love wrought this

TheArmless Artist.
Mr. Bertram Hiles, Of •Bristol, is at pres-
ent showing a:collection of his pictures and.
sketehee inticcaddy„ - London. Mr. Hiles -
had both arms aanputated above the elbow,
as a result Of a tranmar abeideast, •when he
was eight, years old. Only two years .after
Itis accident he had so farmastered-the con-
trol of his pencil held in his mouth., that he
was planed in the first class division of the
seeoral grade of free-hand- drawing Of the
National school at Bristol, and he was only
sixteen when he exhibited a work at the
local academy of pictures. For the fleet
few years he studied so assidtionsly and eric•
cessfully that in 1890 he 'carried away a
scholarship open to the competition of the
United .Kingdom, of 100 guineas, and ten-
able for two years, offered by the National
Art Department • of South Kensington.
Since then he has gained prizes for designs
of a fan and finger plate. A water -jug and
ewer, painted in five hours, won him a sil-
ver medal last year at South Kensington,
where his skill in modelling . clay with his
lips was rewarded by his being classed in
the first division. A beautiful sunset effect
at Venice was hung at the Gallery of the
Society of British Artists. Mr. Hiles is a
cheery, good-loeking and intelligent man of
28. He seems to suffer little inconvenience
on account of his misfortune. His lips ap-
pear to serve nearly as efficiently as do
he hands of most people. - Christian

a crowd gathered and began to give adv
• freely. One man seized the horse by t
ears, another grasped the bridle and beg
to pull, while two or three others brac
themselves against the animal's hind-qu
ters and tried to pnsh him forward. T
creature didn't move a foot. One wise fel-
low blindfolded the horse with the driver's
coat, after which he declared the animal
would move right along, but the plan was a
dismal failure. Another insisted that if a
plug of tobacco was forced into the creature's
mouth he would be all right, saying which
he thrust a big piece of navy twist between
the horse's jaws. The stubborn beast shook
the dose from his mouth.and remained im-
movable. Meanwhile the crowd continued
to grow, and every new coiner had a plan of
his own for setting the problem which by
this time had effect nilly EtippeC1 the move-
ment, of vehicles ia Broadway for two or
three blocks in either direction. The horse
was apparently there to stay. The driver
was in despair. The four or five policemen
who had been drawn to the scene 1.4 the
gathering crowd looked sheepish and puz-
zled. A lady who had watched the scene
from a neighboring cafe finally turned to the
gentleman accOMpauying her and said :
Go and start that. horse. These men
never can do it. They don't understand.
How shall you do it? Simply take a halter,
walk up to the horse quietly and hitch it to
his bit -ring. Take the other end in your
hand,. speak to the borsegently, but firmly,
and lead him away." The gentleman went
outland borrowed a hitching ,strap from a
hackman, and the crowd jeered him as he
approached the balking horse. He attached
the strap to the bit -ring as directed, patted
the animal kindly on the neck, and took the
end, of the halter in his band. With it word
of comma,nd ho started to lead the way, and
the horse folloWed as promptly and obedi-
ently as -if that were exactly what he had
been waiting for all the while ! The crowd
stood back in wonderment and admiration.
Some of the superstitious ones declared that
the animal had been hypnotized.

" There is no trick about -it," explained
the little woman laughingly to her friends
as the gentleman rejoined the party in the
cafe. " With all those half-witted men
fooling around him the horse probably felt
that he knew as much as they did. What
he needed was neither beating nor yelling,
but the presence Of a master. To a horse,
as to other animals, the hitching strap, rope

When- the children are fast asleep, with the
bermes to watch over them, the older cues

kneeling in the transept.
Just at midnight the mass ends, and the
altar boys snuff the tall candles.
Then the family returns,: and there is the
reveillme or the supper of waking -the one
Meal of the year at which are gathered the
brothers and sisters to the home of the old-
est married child. There are places for the
grandparents, too, and if a child has been
lately born to swell the family circle, a, seat
of. honor is given next the grandmere for its
mother who is queen of the feast.
The supper is a great, dinner, at which
good will is the order, where are drunk -in-
numerable glasses of harmless, unintoxicat-
ing grape wine, and where toasts are
offered to every conceivable good luck, past
and to come.
At the reveillon are discussed all the af-
fail of the family. If during the year the
relations between twoofits members have
become strained, all is often forgiven and
forgotten in this family love feast,.

Dear Sirs, -1 used a box of your Purifier, and
found it an excellent article. My horse improved so
much in appearance, that I have since sold him to
American buyers, making a first elites sale. I as,
had a helve that trot badly sprained in the knee. A
Veterinary surgeon told me to try Dick's Blister,
which 1 did ; and the result was that, in las than
ten days, I was driving hiu, as well as ever.
