jNo letting Away Itoiu it. You can't escape trouble, whatever line of life you choose ; and however much you may have yourself, you'll find somebody worse off. The farmer who has his potatoes ruined by potato bugs, whose sheep die and whose turkeys get lost m woods,whose fruit gets blighted and whose family have chills, envies the minister, who, he says, has nothing to do but write his sermons ; while that reverend gentleman, his salary unpaid and his deacons m a temper, the wood out, and the flour not increased by a miracle, wishes his parents had brought him up as a farmer. The lawyer, waiting for his clients wishes he were a doctor ; while the doctor, called out five times a night to travel through the rain to see people who will never pay his bills, wishes he were a lawyer. The milliner, who sews all day and is sick of the sight of feathers and flowers, wishes to change places with the mnsic teacher. The music teacher, sick of stupid pupils, with their want of time and tune, wishes she were a milliner and could make bows all day m peace. The bachelor wishes he were married when he comes home to his solitary room and sighs for a women's voice to cheer his solitude. The married man,enduring a curtain lecture of great length, wishes he were a bachelor. The spinster, sitting sadly over her cup of tea, thinks what a happy creature a wife must be. The wife, sitting up for her husband until the 'weesma' hours, and wondering whether he is at a champagne party, could correct the spinster's opinions on that subject. In fact we all have to take our troubles, like pills when we are sick, whether we will or not, and our own are not worse than any other peoples.

The late session was unusually fruitful of good stories, m more than one of which Sir George Grey figures conspicuously. The best of all these, perhaps, is also the latest. On the day after the prorogation steamers were leaving both for North and South with the members who had stayed for the finish, and Sir George Grey and Mr Pyke met on the wharf, , on the eve of embarkation. " Good-bye" Sir George, 1 ' said Mr Pyke, "We shall meet again next session." 1 ' "I don't know, Pyke," replied Sir George Grey, cautiously. "We may, but then, what 1 mean to say is, we may not." *' Well, if we don't meet at Wellington, we shall meet m the next world." "I hope not, Pyke," — with an air of pity, not unmingled with alarm — " What I m?an to say is, I hope not ! Well, goid-bye, Pyke good-bye." And before Mr Pyke had time to recover himself sufficiently to think of a repartee, the veteran was on board the steamer on his way to Auckland. Mr Pyke says he hopes they will meet again m this world, if only to give him a chance of his revenge. Indigestion and Liver Complaints. — For these complaints Baxter's Com pound Quinine Pills have proved a specific, acting powerfully on the liver and mildly ou the stomach.
