The public is quick to apreciate an article of merit, and when the publishers of the State Journal began offering their semi-weekly at only $1 per year, the same price that others ask for their weeklies which only give half as many papers,.the subscription list doubled in a few months, and has since been grow ing with wonderful rapidity, leaving the oldtasbion weeklies away behind. People don’t see any use in waiting a whole week for the news when they can get it fresh twice a week for the same money. Readers of the Semi-Weekly Journal get 104 papers a year for their $1,'which is less than one cent per copy, and they find the paper almost as good as a daily. If you have not yet tried this gieat paper, do so at once. It gives you the markets twice each week, which alone is worth the price.

They were discussing the merits and weaknesses of certain friends of theirs, whom we will eall Mr. and Mrs. D » • Mr. D-was benevolent and ridic ulously fond of his , wife. Mrs. D—— was good-hearted, but a very pushing sort of a woman, while the grown-up son was described as a most selfish young man, with more criticism of the sort that some of us bestffw so liberal ly upon absent friends "Sure mem," Bald Katie the next day, when she was relating the inci dent to her mistress, "I niver knew before how bad yez are."

A Combination or Figaros Which Mods n Young Lad y Sad. «4he was visiting her brother’s house and, happening to stroll into the library, she noticed the combination ‘‘3—8—8” marked with pencil on a card that hung on the wall. Instantly she grew indignant, for she was a most religious maiden and was very fond of her brother, whom she con sidered, indeed, a model young man. Quick to arrive at conclusions, she immediately sought him out and gave him a lecture on the wickedness of policy playing. All the while that she was imploring him to give up the pernicious habit, he maintained a stolid indifference which sorely aggravated her. When she had spent her fury he burst into a loud laugh and explained the mean ing of the mysterious figures. Every time he had sent his laundry to the Chinaman he had lost pieces of linen, and, as he had never counted the num ber he had sent, he had no redress. He had determined, therefore, to keep a record of t le different articles he sent to be “done up.” The “3—6—8,” he explained, represented three shirts, six pairs of cuffs and eight collars. Now his sister likes him better than ever, and since that day she has never been induced to listen to anything de rogatory to him. HB QOT THERE. Wouldn't Ml» Prayer Became He Wee Not in Poll Dren. A good story about Professor Tuck er, formerly of Bowdoln college, is told: About the year *61, when he was “Tutor” Tucker at the institution, the bell rang for prayers at the chapel, as now, very early in the morning, and it was imperative upon tutors and pupils to respond. As a tutor Mr. Tucker was very popular, although very strict, and he was always prompt to take his place at the head of his class at the early morning devotions. One morning, however, he found his clothing gone and his door nailed while the bell was ringing. Finding a hatchet he soon split the door down and at the last stroke of the bell appeared, .clothed in his shirt and a pair of overalls, barefooted, but with a smile of serenity on his ex pressive countenance. He took his customary place and neither then nor afterwards were words of complaint heard from him. A Student of Mankind. Mrs. Minks—There! There is another torn silk handkerchief that my hus band has stuffed into the rag-bag. That is the last of the half a dozen he bought last year or year before, and ho put them all in the rag-bag himself. Now wait. Sister-*-What for? Mrs. Minks — In about a week you will hear him raving around wanting to know what has become of that half a dozen new silk handkerchiefs he bought only a few months ago. Astrology Not Needed Hero. • When a young man who has had the good fortune to secure a salary of a hunlred dollars a month enters a cir cle of gay livers who have incomes of $5,000 or $10,000 a year, there is no need of an astrologer to predict the end. But should not some of the guilt of the falling one be charged to those who entice him into an associa tion which he cannot enter without wrong-doing? Extremely Courteous. A good example of the extremely courteous in public correspondence was the notice sent to Charles James Fox that he was no longer a member of the government of George the Third. It read thus: “His gracious majesty has been pleased to issue a new commis sion in which your name does not ap» near.” Not One of HU Accomplishment*# ▲ distinguished bishop of the Epis copal church, arriving late at a small town one night,found the hotel closed, and hammering at the door for admis sion, a neighbor stuck his head out of an adjoining window with, "Say, [ stranger, knock like h—II” to whleh the bishop replied: "I don’t know how.” DU.
