About the ycntlt’lrt a rage for ‘/whisk.- or whist, tot in, but at first it was condition'd too wise a game for ladies to join in. Hume, the his­ torian, never went to Led without his whist, and c\en the great John­ son regretted that he had not learned to play rarils. -In 1W2 ‘‘Horry” Walpole finds it absolutely necessary to learn “ whisk" “having waited in vain for its being left off.” We find him in another letter threatening to build an altar to “ Pam” to commemorate the escape ’ of his charming Dneheoa of Grafton, who, it appears, had been playing cards in Home when she ought to have been at a cardinal’s reception, whore the floor fell in and all the monsignores were .precipitated into the cellar! Cards were so very much in evi­ dence in his time that even invita­ tions were frequently issued and notes written on the backs of play­ ing cards, which on that account were usually plain, without any de­ sign, The chevalier’s famous order to retreat at Cnfloden was written ; on the hack of the nine of. hearts. A fresh attempt wasmade in 1739 to' remedy the state of'gamliling in England “by’ passing an act which provided that “ any person keeping a house or other place to game in forfeits £200, half to the prosecutor and half to the poor of the parish,” whereupon two ladies of title, Mor- dington and Cassells, who kept, open houses for gambling, claimed their, privilege of peerage in order to in­ timidate the peace officers from do- in fheir duty and’ suppressing the public gaming houses kept by them, —Blackwood’s Magazine. * ADMISSION FREE, Twice In the Sam* Piece. Two good, old fashioned, easy*go­ ing Mormon brothers were engaged in the hauling of Jogs on sledges from put. of the Wasatch, range of the Bookies, The snow was deep and the canyon very narrow and al­ most boxed. The trail where the sleighs ran was very close to high slanting angles leading to the bot­ tom of the canyon, anti at soma points it was veqtoijflpd for the ping over and unrmsg the driver and contents to the bottom of the canyon. At a point of this kind the foremost brother slowed, down his horses, turned on Ins seat and yelled to. his brother behind: “Oh, Hit Right here as I was coming down yesterday the sled turned and wo went Tight down the bank, logs and all, and, by Jukes, here we go ag’in!”—National Monthly, The Beggar's Stratagem, For artistic methods the Parisian beggar is hard to .beat. One man recently arrested was in the habit of wandering through the streets followed at :i considerable distance bv a Newfoundland dog. On seeing a"bone or n crust in the gutter ho would dart on it feverishly, and the dog would rush up and snatch it from him. A terrific struggle en­ sued, ending in the flight of the dog, bearing off the prize, while the man lay exhausted in the gutter. It is easy to imagine how kind hearted wayfarers after assisting him to rise would shower c( Tts on a poor devil driven by poverty to fight so desperately for a meager crust.—■ London Chronicle.
