A manufacturer of tombstones lately re :i-lved
a call from a countryman, who wanted a stone
to place over the grave of his mother. Aftor
looking around for aomo time, and making
sundry remarks about the taste of his d toeimccl
mother, he finally pitched upon one which tho
stone-cutter had prepared for another person.
"I like this one," said be.
"But," said the manufacturer, "that belongs
to another man, and has Mrs. Terry's name cut
on It; it wouldu't do for your mother."
"Oh, yes, it would," said tho countryman,
"flic couldn't read. And, besides," bo continued,
as ho observed tho wonderment of the stone
cutter, "I'irry was always a favorite name of
hers, any how 1"
A ftinL of tjie Aon. A paper thus describes
a specimen of thl genu in New York: "She
went to the theatre and two parties In one even
ing, carried on three flirtations at each, and tho
next day refused three off era of marriage, ac
cepted two, and broke off three previous en
gagements; read four novels, wrote two letters
and one hundred notes of invitation, practised
her music lesson, made herself a new waterfall,
ate breakfast, lunch, and dinner enough for two
milkmen; took a walk on Fifth avenue, bought
two pounds of French candy and ate it rodo to
tho Central Park with one of her lovers and
walked home with the other."
A Goon Ini:,, Bi.:t Too Latr. The old gen
tleman came home from church enthusiastic.
Ifo found Frank instigating a small dog and a
la 'p.0 tat to cuter the ring.
"Why, Frank," ho said, "how could you stay
nwny from church? I have heard ono of the
most delightful sermons ever delivered before a
Christian society. J t carried mo to the gates of
heaven."
"Well, I think.-' replied Frank, "3-011 had bet
ter have dodged in, for you will never have such
another chauec."
The Spanish ladies arc in great embarrassment.
Two came very near beingarrested tho other day
in Madrid for wearing, one coral ornaments, and
the other Marguerites in her hair. Bed coral
is the emblem of tho KvpuMicans, and while
Marguerites are a loketi of sympathy with the
Carlist cau.-e. Bints it. isalieliist. But how are
the ladies to dress il ail the colors are suspected?
It is true that yellow is left; but then everybody

but what will beeoni" of tlic blondes?
A sailor complained of tho power of the cap
tains, and spoke bitterly of the cliaraei;:r3 of the
i-kippers of the day.
"Why," said he, "not long ago, on the coast
of A Inker, a cap'u wa? goinjf to throw one of
the crew that was dying overboard before bo
was dead. So the man says, 'You ain't a-going
to bury me alive, are your' 'Oh,' says the

Axsweking cetion It is related of a
certain minister ot Maine, who was noted for his
long sermons with many divisions, that one day,
when he was advancing among his U-i'n.v. he
reached at length a kind of resting-place in his
discourse, when, pausing to take breath, he
asked the question,
"And what shall I say more?"
A voice frc 111 the congregation earnestly re
sponded, "Say Amen '."
Two teachers were discussing the eflicacy of
corporal punishment in education.
"I can speak from large experience," said
one. "I have always used it in my school; and
every one knows that my scholars are the cream
of our aristocracy."
"The whipped cream, if you please,' rejoined
his opponent.
Currau being at a parly at the seat of au Irish
nobleman, one of the company, who was a phy
sician, strolled out before dinner into the church
yard. Dinner being served up, and the doctor
wot returned, some of tho company were ex
pressing their surprise where he could be gone to.
"Oh !" says Curran, "he has just stepped out
to pay a visit to some of his old patients."
Tripps has lately noticed that the" milk left
every morning at his house savors very strongly
of the aqueous liuid. In fact, he one morning
actually accused his milkman of watering it.
That worthy drew himself proudly up, and re
plied that he scorned the impeachment; but ho
did water his cows that morning, and he sup
posed "that must be. it." Tripps went to bed.
A countryman, walking along the streets of a
town, found his progress stopped by a close bar
ricade of timber.
"What is that for ?" he said to a person in the
street.
"Oh, that's for to stop the cholera."
"Ah! I have often heard of the board of
health, but I never saw one before."
'Your handwriting is very bad indeed," said a
gentleman to a young college friend, who was
more addicted to boating and cricketing than to
hard study; "you really ought to learn to write
better."
"Ay, ay," returned tho young man; "it is all
very well for you to tell me that; but, if I were
to write better, people would be hudiug out how
I spell."
A dyspeptic and melancholic young profes
sional man once bewailed his prospects to
Chief Justice Farsons, and said ho didn't see
how he should ever get through the world.
"Did you ever know any one to stop on tho
way r" was the : rave and consoling reply.
A pupil in declamation, having been told to
gesticulate according to the sense, in commen
cing a piece with "Tee comet lifts its fiery tail,"
innocently lifted the tail of his coat, and looked
around for applause.

A wag, seeing a door nearly oft its hinges (In
which condition it had been for some time),
observed that when it had fallen and killed
some one it would probably bo hung.
"Won't that boa constrictor bite me ?" said a
little boy to a showman.
"Oh no, boy, he never bites he swallows his

The great preacher never sleeps with his
clothes on. Once, when remonstrated with upon
tho singularity of bis conduct In this respect and
the pernicious effect the example might possibly
have upon tho younger members of his congre
gation, he replied, with tho frank and open can
dor that has always characterized him, that ho
would give worlds to be able to rid himself of
the custom and added that the anguish ho had
suffered in trying to break himself of the habit
had made him old before he was ninety. Mr.
Beecher never wears his hat at dinner. Ho (loos
not consider it healthy. It docs not Immediately
break down one's constitution, but is slow and
sure. He knows one case whore a man persisted
in the habit in spite of the tears and entreaties
of his friends, until it wns too late, and he
reaped the due reward of his rashness for it
carried him oil at last, at tho age of a hundred
and six. Had that man listened to reason he
might have lived to be a comfort to his parents
and a solace to their declining years
Mr. Beecher never swears. In all his 11 fo a
profane expression has never passed his lips.
But if lie were to take it Into ins head to iry it
once, he would make even that disgusting habit
seem beautiful he would handle it as it was
never handled before, and if there was a whole
some moral lesson hidden nway in it anywhere,
he would ferret it out and use It with tremen
dous effect. Panoplied with his grand endow
mentshis judgmeut, his discriminating taste,
his felicity of expression, his graceful fancy
f Mr. Beecher had a mind to swear, ho would
throw into it an amount of poetry, and pathos,
and splendid imagery, and moving earnestness,
and resistless energy, topped off and climaxed
witn a gorgeous pyrotechnic conflagration of
filagree and fancy swearing, that would astonish
and delight the hearer and forever after quiver
through his bewildered memory an exquisite
confusion of rainbows and music, and thunder
aim lightning. A man of a high order of intel
'eet and appreciation could sit and listen to Mr.
Beecher swear for a week without getting tired.
Mr. Beecher is very regular In his habits. He
always goes to bed promptly between 9 and 3
o'clock, and never un any account allows him
self to vary from this rule. He is just as parti
cular about getting up, which he does the next
day, generally, lie considers that to this dis
cipline, and to this alone, he is indebted for the
rugged health lie has enjoyed ever since lie
adopted it.
Mr. Beecher docs not go around and get ad
vertisements for tin; I'lymtmt't, 'iilpil. if h,
docs, it is without his knowledge or consent. If
such a report has been started, it is an absolute
duty to refute it in this article. However, no
such report has yet been heard of, and therefore
it is not necessary to do more than refute it in a
purely general way at this time. Mr. Beecher
ronlil augment the bulk of the pamphlet to
which his sermons are attached if he chose to
go around and solicit advertising, but he would
not dream of doing such a thing. He had no
time for such recreation. He has to preach, and
he lias to make the dedication speeches for all
sorts of things, and ho is obliged to make a few
remarks on nearly all distinguished occasions,
because very often Mr. (ireeley is very busy and
cannot come. And besides, lie has to carry on
his farm.
Mr. Beccher's farm consists of thirty-six acres,
and is carried on on strict seientilic principle.
He never puts in any part of a crop without
consulting his book, lie ploughs and reaps and
digs and sows according to the best authorities,
mid the authorities cost more than the other
farming implements do. As soon as the library
is complete, the farm will begin to be aprolitablo
investment. -But book farming has its draw
backs. Upon ono occasion, when it seemed
morally certain that the hay ought to be cut, the
hay book could not bo found, and before it was
found it was too late, and the hay was all spoiled.
Mr. Beecher raises some of the finest crops of
wheat in the country, nut the untavorable
difference between the cost of producing
it and its market value after it is produced has
interfered considerably with its success a3 a
commercial enterprise. His special weakness is
hogs, however. Ho considers hogs the best
game a farm produces. He buys the original
pig for a dollar and a half, and feeds him forty
dollars' worth of corn, and then sells him for
alout nine dollars. This is the only crop he
ever makes any money on. He loses on tho
corn, but ho makes seven dollars aud a half 011
the hog. He does not mind this, because he
never expects to make anything on corn. And
any way it turns out, he has the excitement of
raising tlic hog, whether ho gets tho worth of
him or not. His strawberries would be a com
fortable success if the robins would eat turnips,
but they won't, and hence the didiculty.
One of Mr. Beeeher's most harassing dillieul
ties in his farming operations comes of the
close resemblance of different sorts of seeds aud
plants to each other. Two years ago his far
sightedness warned him that there was going to
be a great scarcity of watermelons, and therefore
he put in a crop of twenty-seven acres of that
fruit. But when they came up they turned out
to be pumpkins, and a dead loss was the conse
quence. Sometimes a portion of his crop goes
into the ground the most promising sweet pota
toes, and comes up the infcrnalest carrots
though I have never heard him express it just in
that way. When he bought his farm ho found
one egg in every hen's nest on the place. He
said that here was just the reason so many farm
ers failed; they scattered their forces too much;
concentration was the idea. So he gathered
those eggs together and put them all under one
experience:! old hen. The hen roosted over that
contract night aud day for eleven weeks, under
tho anxious personal supervision of Mr. Beecher
himself, but she could not "phase" those eggs.
Why? Because they were those infamous porce
lain things which arc used by ingenious and
fraudulent farmers as "nest eggs." lint perhaps
Mr. Beccher's most disastrous experience was
the time he tried to raise an Immense crop of
dried apples. He planted fifteen hundred dol
lars worth, but never one of them sprouted. Ho
has never been able to understand, to this day,
what was the matter with those apples.
Mr. Beeeher's farm is not a triumph. It would
be easier on him If he worked it on shares with
some one; but lie cannot find anybody who is
willing to stand half tho expense, and not many
that are able, fetill, persistence- iu any cause is
bound to succeed. Ho was a very inferior
fanner when ho first began, but a prolonged
aud unflinching assault upon his agricultural
ditliculties lias'had its effect at last, and ho is
now fast rising from atlluence to poverty.
