good story regarding the late
Bayard Taylor which never appeared in
prii4 is told at Cornell University as
one 01 the choice. bits of college lore.
In the early days of the university; Tay-
lor was at a large dinner party given by
President Andrew D. White. In the
post prandial conversation something
was said regarding restaurants. "13y
the way,' said one, "what does the.
word restaurant tignify ?" Quick aca
flash Bayard Taylor said "It comes
from res, a thing, and taurus, a bull,
therefore a bully thing." The laughter
that greeted this salty settled the im-
mortality of the,joke and professors and
'student& alike like to ; repeat it.

• A Hartford lady tells' this true rela-
tion concerning her ancestor, who was a
direct descendant of John Eliot, the
great missionary and scholar. This lady
lived in New Haven, and had occasion
to send to Boston for a number of kegs
of nails, New Haven at that tikne,about
1765, not producing these' necessaries.
• In due time the kegs arrived, and, on
opening -them, it was discovered that
one was filled with Spanish dollars.
The family wrote to the -Boston man
- telling him that one of the kegs held
-something more-vsluable than nails and
his responsibility therewith ended.
Well, they were kept among the family
tteasurea for many years, Untouched and
unclaimed, until the death of the head
of the house, who in her will ordered,
that they be melted and oast into a
communion service for the New Haven
churoh which was done, and it -still
probably in use.—Hartford Courant.

amusingaccount of a :Sunday -school he

visited on the other side of the world.'
The Superintendent tapped the, bell,
without uttering a word, and the ikoris-
ter arose and led the ninging. -Another
tap brought another man tO his feet who
read a chapter of the Bible. At a third
tap a prayer was offered, and so it went
on. He said to one of the teachers_,
"Things move on very- quietly here. I
noticed that you got to work at the les.
Sons very soon." "Yes," said the
teacher, that is What I came here for.'
"1 noticed also that the Superintendent
-did not say a word." "He can't," re-
plied the teacher; "he is dumb.. We
selected him because he couldn't talk,
and We have had plenty of time for the
lesson ever since. The last Superintend-

".Adroire me in my regimentals,"

diseases .because that gives me
an excuse for keeping the patient's
family out ofthe sick -room.
You don't know' what a bother the 'fem.
ily sometimes are, insisting on 'helping
to nurse" as they call it, while, in fact,
they are only in the nurse's way. If
the nurse has the • misfortune to look

her have the entire charge of their sick
children.

work well enough as long as my patients
are good and sick, but the period of con-
valescence is my time of . tribulation.
When my last patient was getting well,
she would sometimes,after keeping me
an my feet all day doing this, that and
the other thing for her, rouse me gut of
my reclining chair at twelve o'clack at

services of its student nurse; I myself
received nothing more than my usual

patient, in one of ;her short-lived fits of
gratitude, said she WAS going to give me
a ring . to remember her by, but she
never did, and, indeed. it was not need-

time to come, ring or no ring, as I went
four days and nights without sleep when
she was at her worst. What kept me

• A New York gentleman who spent
last winter in Florida, says: He was
taking a drive . through the town of
A•= -.,i the day he was intending to
leave Florida. and 'quite unexpectedly
came , across a small prison, and as it
was . often his custom and pleasure to
address prisoners, he stopped there for
this purpose. After knocking repeated-
ly and getting 00 response, the dear
being ajar he walked . in; he was sur-
prised to_find the bell doors all open,
and no one to he seen; he naturally
calm to- the conclOsion.that the Prisoners
:were out working in a gang somewhere
and would have returned by the time he
had finished hi n drive. -Knocking a
second time, later in the day, he was
answered by an elderly woman, and the
conversation that followed - was • some-
thing like -this :
" ram, sorry, madam, that ± .did not
know there was a prison in the town,
for I should have been pleased to call
during . my visit and talk with the
prisoners." • -
" Well," she . said, "you would not
have found any one here: we have had
only '.. one . man in here in the - last
two years, and he was a rum -seller who
deflect the law and: determined to sell
liquor; You see, a few Years ago we
had nothing buturders, broken heads,
i
and fights, and the prison was full most
of the 'lime with men who got into
.trouble from drinking, and the people
. finally said that rum -selling should stop,
and, they voted for prohibition, and
since rum left the town we have had no
,one to,put in jail: This has been the
condition for two Years, and I don't be-
lieve the people will ever let liquor get a
feot hold here again."
In returning to the village the gentle-
man _ visited various stores and shops
where rum had previously been sold;
and made inquiries about the liquor
dealers:- Some, of course, had, left
town; others took up various pursuits,
and one in partieular, with whom he
talked,' was . carrying on a successful'
store or market for early vegetables.

• .—After a long illnees, Mrs. Elizabeth
Vanstone, of Stratford; widow of the
late John Vanstone, -passed peacefully
away on Friday, 13th inst., at the ripe
age of 76 years. She came to Stratford-.
'from Devonshire; 'England, in the year
1841, and was one of the few survivors
of those early days when Stratford and
- the district surrounding was a wilder-
ness, known only to Indians and a few
daring hunters. She lived to see it de-

—Some of the boys on the Stratford
Market Square were having some fun on
Saturday at the expense of a well known
character. One of them in charge of a
parcel delivery .Wagon, in . jest, offered
him the horse which he drove for fifteen
dollars, which was promptly met by the
offer of a quarter ; to. bind the bargain.
The boy refused it, but the man took
,the herpes by the head and neither the
entreaties nor the threats of the boy,
nor the perm's* s of the by-standers
,resulted in. getting. the old man to let
the horse go. A attempt on the part
of the boy to drive off resulted in his
• horse and wagon describing a circle with
the old man hanging on to the 'bridle.
The order of the chief of police was
ii
necessary to induce him to give up his.
supposed purchase. The boys got more
fun than they bargained for, and the
spectators had a free show.
