Two friends, one a prosperous look ing business man and the other at least well dressed, chanced to meet not long ago, and tho second gentle man remembered that it was his turn to "buy the diuner," so they were soon repairing to a fashionable restaurant. Their orders were generous, and jbey lingered long over tho good things, not forgetting cigars at the end. When they felt that they really had to leave or else pay rent the host showed a bit of fidgetiness and re quested that tho other go 'jfcfslile and wait for him; that there was an 'tin- pleasant little detail" he wished to discuss with the proprietor and could not think of embarrassing his friend by having him overhear It. The friend did as requested, stepping out side and waiting nt the nearest comer. IIo had been waiting only about five minutes when of n sudden tho door of tho restnurnnt flew open, and his erst while host shot through it as from a catapult, followed by sonic most un complimentary terms. "What's wrong?" was the first in quiry of the waiting friend. "Oh, nothing much," was tho an swer, "except that the 'unpleasant lit tle detail' I had to discuss with the proprietor was that I had no money to pay for the dinners." Pittsburg Cazette-Tlnios. A FAMOUS GOOSE. 1 Peter, the Pet of the English Cold stream Guards. Fosslbly tho most remarkable crea ture ever attached to a regiment was Peter, the ever famous goose of tho Coldstream guards. This curious pet was presented to tho Coldst reamers when they were in Canada by the late Hon. Adolphus Graves, and soon it ac quired u fame which eclipsed that of all rivals In the way of pets in the nrmy. Whoa the guard was mounted of n morning Peter always marched off with thoui. It is recorded that one night the goose saved a sentry's life by flying iu tho face of a rebel who was just going to fire at the soldier. Peter's timely aid disconcerted the rebel, who fired t random. The seu try Immediately responded by shoot ing the rebel dead. . When the guards came home and were quartered in London one of tho sights when tho regiment marched out was to seo Peter strutting at the head of tho battalion till they passed tho barrack gate, when the goose re turned. Unhappily Peter's fate was nnheroic. His end was ill iu accord with his martial career, for ho was run over and killed by a cab, and that not even n taxteab. It was a poor kind of an cud for n bird with such a record. London Telegraph. For Sale A new 5-roora house in Milton; or will exchange lor Atheua property.
