CAin’Ai:-.' THOMAS POT CP ms EYEGLASS. Then Gapluiu Thomas put up his cyo-gla-s and Mood up at the back of tho box ami li.-teacd verv attentively. But just as Mis.:! Whitcear ivas iu the middle of tho first verso a poor little mouse ran across the plattorm in front of her. At once Miss Whitcear stopped singing anil spraiur at the mouse. This so excited Captain Thomas that lie jumped out of tho box mid tried to assist Miss Whitcear to catch it. But t hev were not quick enough, and the mouse p it back to his hole, whore they could not fa I eh him. Miss Whitcear..was too tired with tho hunt to go on si tiding, and so the concert came lo a sudden efVd. “Next time, ” .said tho captain, “I will take care to catch’ 1 hat mouse.” “But how about Miss Whitcear?” asked Lady Tabilha. “Showings well enough,” answered Captain Thomas, “hut who might certainly to take lessons in mouse calehiug.” TUo Monks ys and tho Oyster. Two hungry monkeys were once journeying along tho seashore when they came across a- t !- “> largo oyster. “Tin.-, oolong!!to me,” said one monkey, quickly picking it up. “Oli', no, my friend,” replied tho other. “It is really mine, for I saw it before you did.” They then began to quarrel and fight about it when a fox happened to pass that way. “f'hanui upon you both,” said reyHard. “Why are yon thus trying to kill one another! 1 Lot mo know what lathe matter.” Tho monkeys thereupon ceased their fighting end begged the fox to decide the case, whL-jh ho at onco agreed to do. “I muse first find out,” said the fox, breaking open tho oyster, “whether there bo anv meat inside.” When 1m had satisfied himself on this point, ho sealed himself upon a big stone and tried to look as wise as possible. Ho then took up one of the shells, and presenting it to tiui monkey on his right hand he said gravely, “This portion rightly be- ' longs to you for sreing tho oyster first,” and taking up (ho other shell he gave It to tho monkey on his left hand, saying, “This belongs to yon, of course, for you had the good fortune to pick it up.” Then, before they were aware ot what ho was doing, he swallowed tho whole of tho oyster, and in tho next moment remarked, “I dare gay yyu know that a judge earns his living ifltho same way as other folk, so tho insldo was duo lo mo for deciding your difficult cam.” Tho moral of this littlo fable can be safely left to tho intelligence of young folks, with tho single remark tint disputes abound in this world. How to Hismoimt From a Bicycle. Tho bc.T way lo dismount from a safety When traveling fast is by the backward motion, and nob by tho pedal, as is usually done. Thus, when tho loft hand pedal is rising, the body should bo raised in the saddle and tho weight thrown onto tho pedal, at (ho same time slipping off the back of the saddlo, meeting the ground with tho right foot. Of course thoioft foot will quickly follow; thou, letting tho machine run at arm’s length and holding onto tho saddle, a run of a fow yards, according to pace, will quickly bring both yldor and machine to a standstill. With a little practice, a dismount can bo safely accomplished iu this way when traveling at iborato of lo miles an hour and oven fast*p, according to Golden Days. “Please, May I Come Out?' “Oh, please may I come out?
