At the royal castle the king gave the

In the office of Houghton, MifSfn A

curiosity which is sura to "attract the
attention of all who have occasion to,
visit the sanctum of this well-known
publishing house. It is a letter writ
ten by the principal of a school in a
Pennsylvania town to Nathaniel Haw
thorne, and is dated October, 1887.
The teacher begins by trying to
worm himself in Mr. Hawthorne's
good graces by telling him how highly
his works are considered by his neigh
bors, and ho winds up by asking a
donation of a book or two for the
school library.
"It seems very strange," remarked a
visitor to me oiuce a lew days ago,
"that a school-teacher should not have
heard of tho novelist's death twenty-

learning from an old customer that he
was too late, the order having been
placed, lie offered to take the order at
1 cent per pair less if the dealer would
countermand the one he had "riven.
This was agreed to. and the manu
facturer returned, with the feeling that
his journey bad been an entire failure.

Where the Major Laughed.
The Washington correspondent of
the N. Y. Advertiser has unearthed one
shining exception in Congressional life
to the rule that $5,000 a year doesn't
make both ends meet. This example
is Maj Martin of Texas, who blew out
the gas" the first night of his arrival in
Washington. ' The Major's living ex
penses in Texas had ranged from $700 to
$300 per annum. He resolved, when
thrust into Congress by his neighbors,
that he would hot permit the extrava
gances of fashionable life to dally with
him to tlie extent of more than $200 in
excess of that sum. In short," society
or no society; fl.uoo per annum was
his' limit. He stuck to this resolution
through four years of his service. Up
on the expiration of his term he walked
right into the office of the Sergeant-at.
Arms, threw down a huge roli of bills.
and asked for exchange on New York.
He stroked his goatee complacently
and remarked to the cashier: "Uiey
saj- the old man blew out the gas, but
I guess none of them fellers that wear
patent-leather shoes and drink that
lizzin' kind of wine will tote home any
wad like that." The "wad" contained
$17,500, saved in four years out of an
aggregate salary of $20,000 and mile
age. This is where the Major has his
laugh.
"I never thoroughly understood the
Baying that necessity is the mother of
invention until it was brought, in a
peculiar way, directly under my ob
servation tho other evening," said one
of a gay part- in a down-town saloon
to a buffalo hfjin. is man a day or two
ago.
"It was just after this severe cold
wave set in. As I was walking down
Main street in the cold, snow-laden
wind I met an old friend of mine who
has suffered a good deal of misfortune
lately. He was so poorly clad that he
visibly shivered under each searching
blast.
"Mv heavens, (Jeorge,' said I
where's your overcoat?'
"uone with the rest of em. said
he with a mournful smile on his blue
lips.
"I took him up home with me and
offered him one of my old overcoats.
To my astonishment (for he'd always
been a slim fellow) when he tried it on
;t proved too small for him.
"'It won t do, said 1 in despair.
M'Oh! yes it will,' he exclaimed, and
at once began to draw out newspaper
after newspaper which had been fold
ed beneath his threadbare, coat. In a
moment he had divested himself of
several pound of paper, and the coat
fitted easily.
"'.Newspapers are pretty warm when
properly used in cold weather,' said
he, looking at the stack he had taken
from his jacket, 'but ou the whole I
j-refer wool.'"
