Frank Chanfr iu wa3 plavin in St. Louis in Match la-t against Salvini. On Saturday llio tragedian gave the usual matinoe, but Chaufrau did not, so he went to se the great Italian act. Both companies were stopping at tho same hotel, and at dinner were silting at ad joitig tables. Mr. and Mrs. Chanfrau were sitting together, while opposite them, at tins next t:ibl sat Salvini and Chizzola. Salvini did not speak a word of English, and when an vono addressed him iu that tongue Ch'zzola inter-pr-ted. Wlien Chanfrau entered the dining rom ho bowed t Salvini. As ho sat down, Henrietta said: 'Say S'.met i iL' t him. Frank." "How can 1? He don'i understand English." -Will," repli-tl his wife, ' Cliizzo'a will tell l im." -What shall I say?" -Tell him you saw him play to-day." -I saw you this afternoon." shouted Chanfrau across the table. Chizzola interpreted and Salvini smiled. -Delighted," suggeste I Henrietta. -Delighted," repeated Chanfrau. -Charmed with the performance," whispered the lady. 'Charmed with the performance." bawled the comedian. -Think it your best part, "murmured Mrs. Chanfrau. -Think it your best part," yociferat ed Mr. Chanfrau. By this time the members of the two companies were almost choking with suppressed laughter. In the meantime Mr. Chanfrau had begun to drink his Boup, and some of it was dripping down his chin. -Hope.I shall see you again," whis pered his wife. -Hope I shall see you again," re peated the husband. Just then Henrietta saw the soup that was leaking out and whispered: 'Wipe off your chin." -Wipe olFyonr chin," shouted Chan frau at Salvini. Just then there was a howl of laugh ter, and the subsequent proceedings can be imagined better than described. When Mrs. Chanfrau told this story of her liege lord at Long Branch a few evenings ago, he rose up from the hammock where he was reposing, and said: -Don't you ever make me so ridicu lous again. The next time, if I don't kuow my part, I'll gag it." Nym Crinkle. A Costly Dinner. The most costly dinner ever served by the late Delmonico was that given fifteen j-ears or so ago to 100 promi nent citizens of New York by the silver tongued adventurer from England, Sir Morton Peto. This ostentatious indi vidual expended 20,000 on that one night's entertainment, $200 for each guest. The first citizens of New York were present, victims of this oily scamp's pretentious phrases. Iu a re view of that dinner, the limes has d -described it as a marvel of skill and art and extravagance. The salon was smothered in the rarest flowers; the menu was in gilt on embroidered satin; some of the wine cost $25 a bottle; the cleverest musicians were engaged at fancy prices; Clara Louise Kellogg had 1.000 for two songs, and a present be sides of a diamond bracelet. - I.i all probability such a dinner had never been served in the republic. It would have delighted Soyer and Fraucatelli. and had the ancient Greek Philoxenus been there he would have again wished for the neck of a crane that he might longer enjoy the passage of so many dainties down his greedy throat." Al bany Argus. A Scrap of Biography. We are always interested to see how men or women come to suceess. Caleb Cushing could read sixteen hours a day. and remem'iered nearly every thing he read. When he was appoint ed Chief Justice of the Supreme B .-uch of Massachusetts he read sixty volumes on different laws in nineteen days. In Washington he used to work from 5 in the morning till 11 at night, sometimes till 4 in tho morning. His boyhood was spent in poverty, with plenty of hardship. lie married a wife as studi ous as himself. The secret of , his -success was memory and n great power for work. A lazy man never amounts to much. A poor memory can be culti vate I till i' becomes a good one. vVotten AW. SH days we' Literary Note. With its next number, Harper's Young people begins its third volume. The two years of this periodical's growth have lifted it from a vigorous infancy to a robust youth. The aim ot its publishers has been to make Harper's Your,; People attractive without being sensational, and to this ! end they have secured the services of a high class or writers and artists. This fact has been recognized by the Chautauqua "Young People's Union," which has included this illustrated weekly among the works which the members of the Union are required to read. The author of "Toby Tyler" wlil contribute to the new volume of Harper's Y'oung People a story called Mr. Stubbs Brother." The boys and girls who have read "Toby Tyler" need not be told who "Mr, Stubbs" is and they are sure to welcome his brother with open arms. ON TIME. The merry Christmas season is drawing near; the year grows decrepit and feels already the chilly hand of winter striking to its heart, The small boy of the period begins to count the days to Christmas, and checks them off, one by one as they pass. The young man meditates on the new leaf he is resolved to turn with the New Yrear, and decides that a few mere black marks on the leaf at present open will be rather a good thing than otherwise, as tending to make the leaf-turning process afore said more pleasing and striking; and the maiden dreams of Christmas par ties and New Y'ears calls, with, it may be, a trifle of superstitious veneration for the ancient rite of the Mistletoe Bough. Papa, inspecting his bank account, thinks Christmas gifts a nui sance, but supposes he'll have to make some all the same; Mammas deft fingers are busy with cunning needle work, while her mind adverts to mince pies and puddings of the plum; and meetings of the smaller fry are held in secret places to dis cuss the enthralling question, "what do you Buppose we'll get?" or the less absorbing proposition "what had we better givs." Meanwhile, those whose special business it is to minister to the wants of Christmas keepers, have not been idle. Iu proof whereof there comes to us by mail the Christmas number of our old friend "Ehrich's Fashion Quarterly, full from end to end of things for old and young, and sugges tive on every page, of. ways to make Christmas pleasant, and the Holiday season a time of rejoicing in very truth. The book is a complete com pendium of Christmas gifts, and hap py will be the child, and wise the parent in whose home it finds a place. Every article is lucidly described, .nd the prices of all ara given, and very moderate they seem. As a special compliment to their Christmas patrons, the puplishers an nounce that they will send to each subscriber whose subscription reaches them within a certain limited time a copy of the "Christmas Musical Album," which is described as a col lection of nine pieces of music by Gounod, Godfrey, and others, specially adapted to the Christmas season. This ' alone is said to be worth the whole subscription price of the magazine. The Fashion Quarterly is pub lished by Ehrich Bros, of Eighth Ave nue, New York, at SO cents a year, or 15 cents a copy. - From "The Times." Editors Times: Seeing an article in eur paper last week from Arnold Parker, I was impressed with the ear nestness with which he appeals to you to continue to enlighten the world in regard to the means by which he was bo miraculously cured of rheumatism aud hip-joint lameness by using Ken dall's Spavin cure. The article to which he alludes by Dr. Bates, impressed me so favorably with the real merits of this remedy that I tried it also for sev eral bleiiiisiie on my horses and found it the most perfect cure 'I ever tried for spavins and other blemishes, as it completely removes the enlargement in every instance by coi tinuing its use for several days after the lameness had subsided. The perfect success I have always had with Kendall's Spav in Cure led me to use it on my own OVERCOATS AT $2.00 ! person, and for all the family with the very best results as a amily liniment. While several of the cures made with it have been almost miraculous, none have been more satisfactory than sev eral cures which I made with it of foot-rot and also sore-teats a3 well as warts on teats on of cows. I consider it a :nre cure fcr sore teats or foot-rot in either cows or sheep. With the sat isfaction this remedy has always givn in every instance, I cannot refrain ask ing my friend Parker that you contin ue to make known to the world this, the grandest discovery of the nine teenth century, l ours truly, James A. Campbell, Herkimer, N. Y., Sept. 10, 1881. The above letter, with one publish ed last week, encourages us in our ef forts to make our paper one of the most valuab'e Journals in the country and to all our patrons, and we now ask others of our readers who have been alike benefitted by the letter published one year ago from Dr. Bates that they send us for publication, statements which they wish to make for the bene fit! of others, (Ed.)
