The young man fumbled through his pockets while the conductor still held out his hand expectantly. As he turned his last pocket inside out he turned red as he remarked : “+L will have to walk, I guess; [cannot find any money.” “+ Never mind,” said a small man with a rugged beard and rusty hat, “ here's a nickel."

Warner yesterday.‘ One day an Italian organ grinder accompanied by a trained monkey wandered into our town, and the man stopped before my house to play, The monkey was an intelligent little fellow, and was attired in a jacket and cap.

Both animals took a long, steady stare at each other, when suddenly the monkey raised his paw and gracefully saluted his enemy,by raising his hat. The effect was magical. The dog’s head and tail dropped, and he sneaked off into the house and would not leave it until satisfied that his polite but mysterious guest had departed. ’"—St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
