Having regard to Mr. J. M. Bar rie’s visit to Dumiries academy, the Courier and Herald of that place prints some extracts from the novel ist’s early contributions to a school magazine called the Clown, which he and some friends started. Young Barrie writes some “Reclcolectlons” in the asumed role of a “skoolmas ter” whose spelling is Artemus Wardlan. In his seoond installment he complains that the editor “spelt sum of the wurds in my last reo kollections rong,” and he adds: “Altho, of coars, I malk jew allow ance for yoor eddukatlon not being equal to mine, I hop you will he more cairful.” Resuming the “ReekoUeo-< tUrns," he writes: “I alwals open the sohool with prair, as I think it a verry good thing to do, and I got two skollars by It Now, my skollars have gen erally verry durty faces. Well, one day in the middle of my prair won of the boys orept in belo the tabel, and when he was there anuther boy earn in at the door with * a clean face. This was too muteh for the boy in belo the tabel, and, just as I had fin ished saying ‘And may they erie from the bo tom of their harts—,’ he shouted out ‘Lord Almlohti, there’s Jock Smith wi' his face washed t" Here is an instance of how ef fectively the lad could reproduce a conversation. Relating a railway journey the schoolmaster says: “On my rode we passed the river ‘Aye.* A gentleman asked me, *what river is that?' “I was meditatin’, so I answered abruptly, ‘Aye.’ “The gentleman repeated bis ques tion, and L thlnkin’ he had not heard me, again replied *Aya ’ •• ‘Could—you—tell — me—what— river—that—isP’ he roared into my eer. “I again answered ‘Aya’ “ 'Sir, said ha 'I sea you want to Insult me!’ “I oouldn’t comprehend what- he. said till another person in the trane informed me that he thoat that I meant *eh’ when I said ‘aye.’ ” Here is another example well worth giving: "An# minister oi tne town was sea to be n good preeoher, and so I went to beer him on the furst Sabbath of the munth. I went early, and their wer only one person there who I saw was a nelder. I sed to him, ‘When does service begin V "The man staired. “ ‘When does service begin P’ ] agen asked. "To my surprise the elder ex* claimed: *What abomnabul impurt* nense. Fray, aur, do you know oor respecktit minis tlrP’ “ 'Me no him? No,’ sed L “ ‘Then get oot o' this,’ he re* plied. 'You lmpuraant ekoundral git oot o' this; an’ if I sea you here agen I'll kick you oot mysel!' "Of course I was grately aston* ishod at the man, not noing anythink I had sed about the minister; but it struck me at wonce that the minis ter’s name wafe Service!” ACmlral Sa Hors*/ Bad tha Sentry. When Admiral de Horsey, who some years ago had command of the British fleet in the Paoifie, was the admiral of the North Atlantic squadron, he was one evening dining on shore at Port Royal, Jamaica. On returning to his flag-ship alone after dinner, his way to the boat led across the barraok square. A black sentry, of one of the. West India regiments, halted him at the gate with, "Who goes darP” Great was the admiral’s annoyanoe to And he had neglected to get the pass-word before leaving the ship. "That’s all right,’’ he said carelessly, hoping to overcome the man’s scruples by indifference; "you know who I am.” "Dunno nobody, sar,” replied the nigger, pompously; "you can’t go in dar.” “Why, I’m Admiral de Horsey.’’ "Well, you can’t go in, I don’t earo if you's Admiral, de Donkey.’’—Argonaut L*aras4 by Experience. A certain Judge in Chicago, who rather prides himself on his vast and varied knowledge of law, was com pelled not long ago to listen to a case that had been appealed from a justice of the peace. The young practi tioner who appeared for the appel lant was long and tedious; he brought in all the elementary text-books and quoted the fundamental propositions of law. At last, the judge thought it was time to make an effort to hurry him up. "Can’t we assume,” be said, blandly, "that the court knows a little law ltselfP’’ "That's the very mistake I made in the lower oourt,” answered the young man, "I don’t want to let it defeat me twice.”— Argonaut A ItUHw In XHi Halt a century ago, when “sub* jects” wera bought by the surgeons, a poor man, writes James Payn, fell dead in Fleet street Without a mo ment’s hesitation, a young fellow who was passing threw himself on his knees beside the corpse, exclaim ing: “My father, my dear father!’’ A crowd gathered round, their sym pathy was excited, and mohey was subscribed to enable the pious youth to take away his father's body in a hackney coach. He did so, and took it to a surgeon, who gave him a hun dred dollars for it Fner Lttt's Thing. “What’s the ^natter, Molly P" asked Colonel Merger of his little 9-year-old daughter. "Pa, my mocking bird is dead.” “Well, never mind. Molly, I’ll buy you another one” “I am calm enough npw, but when I saw that poor little dead bird I could have .cried lfl^p asohlld,” said Molly.—Te^is Sittings. w HOW TO FIND OUT. Fill a bottle or common glue with urine end let it stand twenty-four hours; » sediment or settling indicates nn uo* healthy condltioii of the kidney*. When urine stains linen it is positive evidence of kidney trouble. Too fre quent desire to urinate, or pain in the beck, is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order. wHat TO DO. There is comfort in the knov ledge so often expressed, that Dr KilmerV Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy, fuiails every wish in relieving pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder, and every part of the urinary passages, It corrects inability to bold urine and scalding pains in passing it, or bad effects following the use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to gel up many times duriug the night to urinate.
