gLAUDE THAYER,
A middle aged man who was gazing
absently out of u window of an elevate 1
car the other day started suddenly anil
craned bis neck to look nt a big holo in
the wall of brick and brown stone front
by which tlie train was passiug. Two
or three houses had been torn down to
make room for improvements, and the
hole was all that was left at them, save
a litter of broken bricks in the ctdlar
and an acre or so of wall paper in many
designs upon the sides of the adjoining
building. Tho middle aged man got ont i
at the next station and walked back to
the hole. Ho stood on tho sidewalk a
moment, looking first up into the air an«l
then at tho ltalf dozen workmen who
were removing the last trace» of the
wreck. Presently he appeared to pluck
up resolution, for ho gravely descended
the rough plank gangway that led from
the street to the bottom of the holo and
approached the boss of tho gang.
“Been tearing down theso houses, I
see,” remarked the middle aged man by
way of introduction.
Tho boss stared.
“We ain't been puttin’ up any,” he re­
sponded.

SHORT NOTICE
They ushered him into tho editor's
sanctum. Ho was a tall negro, with an
oily »kin a» black ns your coat, flat nose,
thick lips, and »he shiniest of uliiny eyes
and teeth. “Is dis de editor?” he in­
quired as ho twirled his liat in hi» hand.
Ho was informed that it was.
"Well, boss, I wants to get a job,” he
said.
"What is your business?”
The old negro drew himself tip to his
full height and answered! “Iae been de
proprietor ob de New 'leaus Piccyune
fo' twenty years."
“Oh, you havo been proprietor of The
New Orleans Picayune for twenty years,
have yon?"
"Yes, sah.”
"Well, I suppxi you wroto the editor­
ials then.”
“Oh, no, sah; wo had do editors for to
do dat,"
“Yes? Perhaps, then, you gathered
the news?"
"No, sah, de reporters did dat”
“You read the proof, then, very
likely.”
“Oh, no, no, no, sah, wo hail do proof­
readers for to do dat.”
The editor lx>came amused at the old
darky, and determined to see in what
position liis boasted proprietorship would
¡and him, so ho questioned him in re­
gard to tho various positions right down
the list, and still bis function remained
undiscovered.
“Well,” he was finally asked, “what
was your position?"
Ho besitated n moment and then an­
swered in tho most impressive voice he
could command:
“I'll tell you wliat, boss, if you wants
to get some one to oil de joints ob you
engino down sta’rs, I ken do it better
dan any man in town."—New York
Tribune.
(leorge IV. Child« on Vocation..
My rule has been to follow faithfully
that line of business for which I felt the
consciousness of lieing adapted. In this
view I selected the newspaper, and to it
I devote my time and talents. I follow
out the one line of business pursuit
rather than engago in many. A few
days ago certain gentlemen camo to me
to ask me to engage with them in the
line of banking. "I am not a banker,”
said I. "I tun a newspaper man."
"But," they ]H-rsisted, "we do not ask
for your time, but only your name, and
the use of your nmno to ns will bo worth
1100,000 a year to yon." I did not, how­
ever. accede to their request. I liad no
inclination to engage with them in tho
pursuit of banking, because it was out­
side of my Hue, and having raoro than
enough money to moot my modest neces­
sities, and without a child in the world,
I did not feel like taking $100,000 each
year for doing nothing to earn it.
The great trouble with mankind is to
stick to that pursuit of which they have
knowledge. Some men get strangely
mixed up. 1 happen to know a banker
in this town, with good general informa­
tion, but with no aptitude for banking.
Yet he plods along in his line, acquiring
nothing, you may say, and at times the
necessities of his business have com­
pelled him to raise money on the family­
plate. Now, he is out of his line, and
will fail, probably, until he finds that
which is his t»al bent and gravitates to
it.—Interview in Cincinnati Enquirer.

AN ELEPHANT HUNT IN SIAM»
—a;----- -
4 Country Where Nearly 360 Of the Ultf
Animal« Ate Caiitnreil at a Time.
One scorching morning in Apnl, 1870,
:i email party or Europcaiu left the city
of Bangkok, the present capital of the
kingdom of Siam, for Avuthia, tho old
seat of government, sixty miles north-
want up the River Mentun. A hunt had
Ixs'u appointed by tho lring, atid the ele­
phants were to be brought in through
the country bordering thi ancient mins.
On the second day wo arrived st
Aynthia, and set up our screens and
hung our mosquito bars in a «ala, or rest
house, by the river side.
The following morning the elephants
arrived. Jnst outside the city, and over­
looking a plain extending to the horizoU,
was a high platform, mounted by stonO
sU'pti and covered with a tiled r«x>f sup-
ixirted by pillars. On this, screened
front the sun, and with a broad outlook
over the rice fields that had lately been
shorn of their crop, sat a high official,
his aids, a few native nobles and tbs
foreign ¡quests.
Tho other spectators perched in trees
or found standing r«x>m wherever the
view was most attractive. Immediately
before the platform was tho stockade,
made by setting deep into the ground
teak log» two yards in girth and twenty
feet in length. These logs were
ar­
ranged ns to leave interspaces
one foot iu width. They inclose

at the side opposite the platfor
n funnel shaped entrance only wide
enough, where it joined the stockade, for
tho passing of u single elephant.

Sermon« That Are Remembered.
I have listened to many eloquent,
many striking, many admirable ser­
mons. I have forgotten, I suppose, some
five or six thonaand sermon»—forgotten
all about them bo completely that they

Of one of them, heard when 1 wa» a boy
of 14, I remember nothing but the man­
ner in which for all time it impressed
the text itself upon my recollectiou.
The text was, “As the gram growing
upon the housebqi», which witheretli
afore it Ire plucked up, whereof the
tnower filleth not his band, neither he
that, bindeth up tho sheaves his Ixxxim.”
Perhajis a sermon can prixluce no better
effect than to burn into the brain tho
force or the imagery of a particular
text. 1 remember how much I longed,
after bearing that sermon, that my life
might never bo represented by such an
imago of utter uselessness—the rank,
conrso grass upon Hie thatch, which the
mower an«l reaper aliko despise —Canon
Farrar in Forum.
