Shyness Exemplified. An On gon City young lady, one day last week, went into a dry goods store, and unburdened herself thusly : " It is my desire to obtain a pair of circular elastic appendages, capable of beng contracted or expanded by means of oscillating burnished steel appliances, that sparkle like particles of gold leaf set with Cape May dia monds, and which are utilized by retaining in proper position the ha biliment of the lower extremities, which innate delicacy forbids me to mention." The vender of calicoes was non plussed, but not wishing o appear ignorant, said he was "just out." After her departure he ruminated in silence for a few moments, when a new light broke upon his distract ed brain, and he burst forth with "By thunder! I'll bet that lady wanted a pair of garters." A Steikixg Anecdote. Charles XII., King of Sweden, drank some times to excess, so as even to disturb his reason. In one of his drunken bouts he lost the respect which was due the Queen, Lis mother. Shore tired to her chamber, overwhelmed with grief, and remained there on the following day. As she did not make her appearance, the King in quired the cause. This being told, he took a glass of wine "in his hand, and went to the Queen's room. "Madam." said he to her, "I have learnedt hat yesterday in my cups, I forgot myself towarJs you. I come to ask your pardon ; and to prevent a recurrence of such a fault I drink this glass to your health ;it shall be my last during my life." He kept his word, and from that day he never tasted wine. Small Hands. Many people, especially ladies and lady-like young men, seem to con sider a small hand a very desirable thing, and as in a measure establish ing their claim to gentility and a high rank in the scale of humanity. Now, one distinguishing charaleris tic of the white race of Europe from whom the people of our country have si)rnng, is a large hand as compared with the inferiorTaca of Asia, Africa, &c. A large hand is, therefore, in a degree an index of great qualities, capacity f jr great physical and men tal effort; in short, of a large calibre. When, therefore a person appears to be proud of a small.delicate hand, it may be set dowu a3 indicating that such person comes of an inferior race in his veins. We never heard of but one great man with a little hand, and that was Bonaparte, - Many year3 ago a Florentine gen tlemen had a mule so vicious that his grooms and servants could hard ly approach it without receiving a kick or a bite. Its master, after employ ing in vain every means to render it more tractable, resolved to expose the creature to the wild beasts in the menagerie of the Grand Duke. A lion was accordingly let loose, whoso roaring would have frightened any other animal; bui the-.imule wise ly retired without showing any sign of fear to a corner of the court, in which he could only be attacked from behind where its greatest strength lies.and there awaited the attacks of its enemy, observing him all the while from" the corner of its eye and presenting its crupper. The lion, seusible of the difficulty of the assault, employed all his address to catch his foe at a disad vantage. At length the mnle found aa opportunity to give him so'violenta kick that nine or ten of his teeth were .broken, the fragments flving in all direcit.ons. The iking ef beasts ac knowledged a defeat and retreated to his den, leaving the mule master of the field. A lady, examining the handsome display of gloves and hosiery at the l air yesterday, wisely remarked, as her eyes res ed upon a pair of ten button kids, "Yes, they are very handsome, but one doesen't want to wear them unless she has a handsome arm. " And likewise those," sig nificantly added her companion, as she pointed to a pair of handsomely embroidered sock we ask pardon did some one say "Oh" ' Mr. Buckle says that history re peats itself. We presume he refers to the fact that the Jews were direct ed to make glad the waist places ; and that the same pleasing, custom of doing it with the left arm' on the front stoop, evenings, after the old gentleman has gone to the lodge is popular now. ' "I should be afraid to carry my nose as high as you do, ma.am," said a servant-maid to her mistress. " Afraid of what ?" she asked, sharp ly. Afraid of spiders, ma, am." Keep your eyes open and see how many items start off with : "These Cold nights ! " Qentura TlNIEVJEEUT letter from a Postmaster. "Antioch, III., Dec. 1, 1874. "Messrs. J. B. Rose fc Co., "My wife has, for a long time, been a terrible suffererfrom Rheumatism.She has tried many physicians and many reme dies. The only thing which has given her relief is Centaur Liniment. Iam rejoiced to say t his has cured her. Iam doing what I can to extend its sale. W. II. RING. This is a sample of many thousand testi monials received, of wonderful cures ef feated by the Centaur Liniment. The in gredients of this article are published around each bottle. It contains Witch Hazel, Mentha, Arnica, Rock Oil, Carbolic, and ingredients hitherto litttle known. It is an indisputable fact that the Centaur Liniment is performing more cures of Swellings, Stiff Joirts, Eruptions, Rheu m atis m.Neura Igia.Sciat ica.Caked Breasts, Lock-jaw, etc., than all other Liniments, Embrocatious Extracts, Salves, Ointments and Plasters now in use. For Toothache, Earach, Weak Back, Itch and Cutaneous Eruptions it is admirable. It cures burns and scalds without a scar Extracts poison from bites and stings, and heals frost-bites and chillblains in a short time. No family can afford to be without the Centaur Liniment, white wrapper. The Centaur Liniment, Yellow Wrapper, is adapted to the tough skin, muscles and ilesh of the animal creation. Its effeets upon severe cases of Spavin, Sweeny, Wind Gall, Big Head and Poll Evil, arelittle less than marvellous. Messrs. J. McClure fc Co., Druggists, cor. Elm ana ront sts., Cincinnati, v., say : "In our neighborhood a number of team sters are using the Centaur Liniment. They pronounce it superior to anything they have ever used. We sell as high as four to five dozen bottles per month to these teamsters." We have thousands of similar testimo nials. For Wounds, Galls, Scratches.Rlng-bone, Ac, and for Screw Worm in Sheep it has no rival. Farmers, Livery-men, and Stock-raisers, have in this Liniment a remedy which is worth a hundred times its cost. Liaboratorv of J. T5. Rose k Co., 46 Dey St., New York.
