The Small Bo, Corner Standeth Upon the \d Laugheth at wary. th Yesterday was April Fool's day, and from time immemorial the small boy— yes, and sthe large one, too-—has racked his brains to discover some way by which he could turn the laugh upon some person whose mind was fixed upon more lofty things than April fool jokes. Bright and early yesterday tho small boy had placed his package, nicely tied up, upon the sidewalk, and, together with his comrades, stationed himself around the corner to watch the unsus- pecting mortal as he plodded through the mud and stooped to lift the tempting par- cel. At this moment a demoniacal laugh fell upon his ear and with muttered curse he threw to the ground that which had caused his chagrin, and there it lay until the next ‘“‘sucker” would bite, only to be made a fool of. The well-filled pocket-book was also nailed upon the sidewalk in a conspicu- ous place and left for a blind. The hat with a brick under it was left for the un- | * wise mau to kick and then limp away amid the howls of a tickled crowd. All day long the cry of, “‘Oh, mister, you are loosing your handkerchief,” or *‘Oh, mister, look there,” have been heard, onl{ to be followed by “April Fool,” as the person accosted would look in the direction indicated. For years and years these same old tricks have been played, and so they will be until the end ef all time, and if a good close watch is not kept at the gate, some of the chronic jokers will slip into the great world beyond and practice their jokes through all eternity. —— A Very Remarkable Recovery, Mr. Geo.

The subject of last night's entertainment was ‘‘Rome and the Vatican,” and a highly interest- ing and instructive presentation it proved, too. One could almost imagine himself standing in the streets of sncient Rome or treading the magnificent tran- cepts of St. Peters, so faithfully does Prof. Cromwell reproduce on the white screen the works of the old masters. No doubt the teachers of our public schools, many of whom were there, secured valu- able ideas from the illustrations—ideas that could with untold benefit be trans- ferred to theirseveral charges. —— WHOLESALE CONFECTIONERY.
