ANKODOTN OF THE KING OF SWEDEN Some. Englishmen lately visited the summer palace of the King of Sweden at Steekholin, and were shown - over the apaiements at their request by a man whom they found seated on a bench in the court yard. The Englishmen began to tell anecdotes of the King, and de mended if they were true. The guide, a model of disdretion, said so many stories were told of his Illejesty—some trae, some false=that it was difficult for him to say - what was correit, and that as he was connected with the royal houtiehold, it was not for him to say. The English men begged pardon - for theik • curiosity, and it , was ,heartily granted. At last, after they had leen' every thing,' they took leave of their guide and. thanking him for his courtesy, e.apreseed their . re gret that they had not seen Charles XV. The guide`raised his hat, and saluting them gracefully, said, " I am the King," and then left the Englishmen not a little astonished. MANNERS.—" Make it a point of mortality," says a writer, "never to find , fault with another for his manners, He may be awkward or graceful, blunt or polite, polished or rustic, , I care not. what le`ify,•iPthe man means well, and , acts from honest int without ec.. :centricity or affectation.

"Our - Home," for such it has been ap propriately called for ‘ the home comforts it affords, is lcicated on the slope of a maintain near Danaville, Livingston county, NeW York, six miles distant from Wayland, on the Buffalo branch of the Erie Railroad.

"Our Home" is, in every respect, a suc cessful hygienic institution, inasmuch as every condition essential to the improve ment of patients is assiduously attended to.• ,Their• bodily infirmities receive epeeist attention, through an able and experienced faculty, and their spiritual and mental depressions are soothed and brought into healthful activity, while the home comforts and pleasing socia bility, together with a diet exclusively of fruit, grain, and vegetables. (produc ing no stimulations or false condition) combine and harmonize, not only in cleansing the body of morbific obstruc tions, but also in expanding and en lightning the moral and spiritual nature of the patients, so that when they depart to mingle again in the struggles and temptations of the world, they are ever adinonished by an observing intellect, to obey the laws of their being --to live temperately and discard all evil habits, lest they should again suffer the penalty of disobedience. This is an important feature of this institution ; each - patient is being educated while being restored to health ; 'unclean habits' are cast sway, and a new life upon a higher plain is entered into. The use of tobacco and alcoholic drinks are not only forbidden the patients, but are excluded entirely -from the premises ; a notice over the gateway forbids the use of tobacco by visitors while there. Temperance in things - usable, and total abstinence from things unwholesome, are the mottoes ineulcated. In short, everything, from the cordial reception of the visitor or patient, on through every department, there is such completeness that none Can go their . ° without being delighted, and if suffering, greatly benefitted t B.

Stuff for Smiles A. little fellow gulag into a chinch for the first time, were the pews were very high, was asked, on coming out, What he did in church, when he replied : " I went into a cupboard and took a seat on the shelf." A lady's " water-fall "is not only ornamental, but -can, on occasions, be made useful. When the guerrillas rob bed the railway train at North Bend, Ohio, one of the-ladies "did up " a nice gold watch, two diamond rings, eat rings and 42,000 in' her hair, and saved the lot.

The best description of weakness we have ever heard is the wag's query to his wife, when she gave him some chick en broth, -if she would not try to coax that chicken just to wade through the soup 'once more. When a BaltiMore lady is kissed, she 'says she . feals as though she was taking chloroform, and remains insensible as long as the operation lasts. A judge in Indiana threatened to fine a lawyer for eontempt of court. " I have expressed no contempt for the court," said the lawyer; "on the contrary, I have 'carefully concealed my feelings." An itinerant preacher, .who rambled in his sermons, when requested to stick to his text, replied " . that scattering shot would hit the most birds." A Greekmaid, being asked what for tune she would bring her husband, re plied : " I will bring him. what gold can not purchase—a heart unspotted, a vir tue without stain, which is all that de scends to me from my parents." Babies resemble wheat in many re spects.'
