A Difficult Guaat.
When Dickous first met HanB Chris
tian Anderson in a London drawing
room , ho usked his fellow novelist to
pay him a visit at Gadshill. The invi
tation was promptly accepted and the
guest remained a long timo.
Upon many occasions during his pro
tracted yisit Dickens fonnd his patience
put to the test by his new friend.
In spite of Hans Christian's many
merits and good qnalities , his very
marked peculiarities made him an ex
ceedingly difficult person to entertain.
He was extremely sentimental and
emotional , and frequently , for no ap
parent reason , would burse into a flood
of womanish tears and run away to his
room.
A few days after his arrival ho rang
the bell and asked to see the oldest sou
of the house.
The eldest sou was away , and when
Dickens himself wei to see what his
guest desired he fonnd that Andersoa
wished the eldest son to shave him , that
being the custom of his own country.
Dickens explained that in the first
place young Charles was absent , and
that , secondly , it would bo an experi
ment fraught with danger for him to
attempt the desired service , as , with
the very best intentions , he would prob
ably uearly decapitate his illustrious
guest.
Under these most untoward circum
stances Hans Christian , weeping , betook
himself to the nearest barber shop and
had his beard attended to professionally.
A Queer Shampoo.
In one of the hotel barber shops a
small Italian boy named Joe officiates
with the whisk broom. The other day
the hotel housekeeper sent down to the
proprietor of the shop and asked him to
fix her up a bottle of shampoo. Ho fixed
it and told Joe to take it up to the
honsekeoper.
"You tell her , " said the barber , "to
take half a teacup of the shampoo and
put it in two teacups of water and ap
ply. "
Joe took the shampoo and went up to
the housekeeper with it. In a short time
he came back , and the barber asked ,
"Give it to her all right ? "
"Yes , " said Joe.
"With the directions ? "
"Yes , " said Joe again.
Half an hour later the barber noticed
the housekeeper out in the hall , looking
curiously into the shop. He walked out
to where she was.
"Hello ! " she said. "Whichisit ? Are
you drunk or crazy : "
"What do you mean ? " asked the bar
ber , with much dignity. I
"You must be ono or the other , judg
ing from the message you sent up with
that shampoo. "
"What message did I send ? "
"Joe told me you said to tell me to
make a cup of tea and put it in the bottle
tle and lie about it ! " Buffalo Express.
Philosophy of a Prince.
"Did you over hear the story of how
the Prince of Wales asked the sultan to
go and see the Derby run ? " asked Or
lando Jones. "Well , it was thiswise :
The race for the Derby was about to be
run , and as the sultan was then-visiting
England the prince sent one of his lords 1
in waiting to inquire if the eastern po
tentate would not like to go and witness -
ness the classic contest. The son of the
moon and stars was seated propped up
by cushions , smoking placidly , when the
royal emissary was ushered into his
presence.
" 'His royal highness bids mo ask
your majesty if it would please you to
witness the race for the Derby ? ' said he ,
bowing lew.
" 'Does his royal highness mean that
I should go and see a horse race ? ' in
quired , the sultan blandly.
" 'He does , your highness. '
" 'Tell the prince that I cannot do
so , ' replied the ruler of the faithful.
'Why should I want to go ? All men
who are not fools know that some horses
are swifter than others. ' " Atlanta
Journal.
"No Point" ZUcGec.
J C McGee , one of the best known
geologists in the government service , is
called No Point McGee by his friends
because , not having had a Christian
name given him by his parents , when
he went into the government service , he
was compelled to choose distinguishing
initials. He took all the letters of the
alphabet , placed them in his hat and
drew two at random. These he selected
for his name , and since then he has
signed himself J CMcGee. This became
known about the government office , and
then his name was published J C McGee -
Gee 1 , without the periods , for the printers -
ers said there was no abbreviation.

Sowing : and Reaping. '
Here is a thought from Sir Frederick 1
Leighton : "Whatever littleness degrades ;
our spirits will lessen them and drag [
them down. Whatever noble fire is in j
our hearts will burn also in our work , j
Whatever purity is ours will chasten I
and exalt it , for as we are so our work I
is , and what wo sow in our lives that }
beyond a doubt we shall reap for good :
or 1 ill in the strengthening or defacing ;
of whatever gifts have fallen to our lot. ' ' j
Considerate.

How to Treat a Wife. ,
( From Pacific Health Journal. ) * " ' .
First , get a wife ; second , be patient. Yon A

business , but do not therefore , carry L. your H
home a cloudy or contracted brow. Vour ;
wife may have trials , which , though of less % < q
magnitude , may be hard for her to bear. A ' J *
kind word , tender look , may do wonders in f .
chasing from her brow all clouds of gloom. \
To this we would add always keep a bottle of
