I had him on my knee in the -parlor of our flat when a knock came at the door. I opened it, whereupon a - decidedly elderly gentleman pushed his way in. "What a fine boy!" exclaimed the stranger, looking in admiration at Jul- ian. I can tell it s a boy. He s so sturdy." t I had been inclined to resist his un ceremonious pushing of himself in, but he took so much pleasure in J ulian and Julian was so delighted by the atten tion that I hadn't the heart to 6ay any thing. .' "Six teeth, eh?" continued the pater nal and kindly old gentleman. "Two years old, I judge, sir?" "No, sir," I replied. "It is true he looks fully two years old, but lie is only 14 months." . . ' " . ' ... "Impossible," was the reply, in a tone of wonder. Julian meanwhile was crowing and laughing at the stranger and held out his arms. It suddenly dawned on me that I had not asked my visitor his business, but by this time he had Julian in his lap. "The child actually weighed all of 25 pounds," he declared. "By the, way, I came to see you about the gas bill. Actually 25 pounds! Only 14 months old! Ha! ha! little boy." : I had been angry for a week about my gas bill. The company had taken away my meter on account of non payment of a most outrageous charge, and for some time I had been using candles. My intention was to sue the company. - "Hear him laugh!"' cried the vener able old. gentleman, who . was now dandling Julian on his knee. "Four teen months old and weighs 25 pounds! Well, well!" Julian was in esctasies. "Well, now," I said, "I don't think I ought to pay " But he was so .wrapped up in Julian that he really did not hear me.' He brought forth an old wallet and drew my gas bill from it. . - "Here, little boy," he cried, "is some thing for you to play with. I really be lieve he'll have another tooth through in a week. There isn't another baby in Brooklyn to equal him." Julian was waving that gas "bill in his little fist, and the two made . the sweetest picture together the old gen tleman and the child. . I 'had a $10 bill that I was hoarding to buy a new coat and vest with, and 1 brought it out with a sigh. ' The old gentleman accepted it casually. "Well, well," he said. "I must be going. ' Twenty-five pounds! Four teen months old!" As he walked downstairs he looked back two or three times to wave his hand and cry "By-by" at Julian- He was certainly a superior and well edu cated old gentleman and I have no doubt he was reduced to the necessity of taking up his present occupation by reverses of fortune, but I wish I had thought of asking him to have my gas meter brought back.; St. Louis Post-Dispatch. - Color Line in British Army. With all England's condemnation of the social disadvantages, to which the colored race is subjected in the United States, she is giving abundant evidence of being imbued with, radical preju dices that are. every bit as strong. Thus, the volunteer regiments of the great universities have declined to ad mit to their ranks students of Indian or of African origin, and a number of other volunteer and militia corps, in cluding the Inns of Court batallion, composed of members of the legal pro fessions have followed suit.

This is neither appro priate nor artistic, and when there is a ribbon bow tied on the basket's handle as though a milliner's finery could possibly improve nature's favorites the effect is very much like that- of painting the lily." Nothing is really prettier for this purpose than a tile gruwu somewnat subdued ana mossy with age, for either flowering plants or those of ornamenal f oliace.
