TH for Tut. It Is novor wiso to intrude ono's pre tidiccs upon tho general public, sinco thoro is everywhere some ono capable of taking up such prejudices and turn ing them to ridicule. Nowhere is tils jnoro truo than in the case of stran gers in country towns, .for nowhero does ready wit find expression more freely than under such circumstances. It is related that there formerly lived in Boston a lawyer named IiatclilTe, who was famous in his circlo for his skepticism and his hatred of religious things. One time this Mr. Ilatelifl"e hod occasion to go to St. Albans, Vt., to tako testimony in a law caso in -which he was engaged. Ho amused himself during tho proceedings by con tinually alluding to tho town as "Al bans" instead of St. Albans. Presently ono of tho local lawyors present nuked, "Why do you call thi. place 'Albans?'" "Became I don't like saints," said Mr. Hatch !Te. "Oh!" Nothing more was said on tho sub ject, but by and, by, tho work being completed, tho Boston lawyer rose to tako his departure. "Oood-by, gentlemen," ho paid to tho three or four St. Albans men who wero present. "Good-by. Mr. ClifTol" they all an swered. "What do you mean by calling mo -Mr. Ciiire?"'vho oxclaimcd. "Why, v:,(: don't like rats," said one of tho St,. 'Albans men. Youth's Com panion. - A .luinbu Sjtlilt'r. E. M. Tutwiler, superintendent of the SIqss Iron and Steel company's mines at Coalbui has, preserved in alcohol, tho largest black spider over seen in this -section. A few days, ago Tutwiler heard a great commotion among the chickens in his yard. He went out to investigate and asaw a small chicken boing slowly drawn Into a hole in tho ground. Some Invis ible reptile had caught tho chicken by ono lef and was drawing it into tho liolo in spite of its desperato struggles. Tutwiler approached, and looking down in tho hoio discovered an im mense black spider Ho punched it with a Htick and coinpolled it to release tho chicken. Ho then dug tho spider out of its den ami placed it in a jar of alcohol. It lived an hour after boing placed in tho jar. When dead tho spider was taken out, weighed and ineasuivd. It measured 2 1-2 Inches across tin- back and weighed nine ounces. Its longest legs wero -1 1-2 inches In length, and its eyes wero as largo as a. hotel clerk's diamonds. Birmingham (Ala.) Cor.

Tho iilo tiiuo of Haeon, Popo, Cow per and many another famous writer has been spent in sirdening. It is said that market gardenia:: Is tho ono pas sion of Ulaekmoro, th UngUali novel ist, and that ho Mvuds tho money ournod by his pen in .-arrylng out this loarly beloved hobby. And who eould vlsh it otherwise? Doubtless tho poet ical spirit whieh pervades his work is that caught from I ri days spent in homely tasktt in the garden and field.
