He pets it und handles it very tenderly, and it seoms to be very well contented with 1ts home. When he laid it on the table it seemea anxious to return to its hiding place und started to get there, by crawling up his sleeve.

A Street Car Conduc-or Frees Hi: Min on the *u *‘Have you ever not ductor on a West [Ind street car to a writer in the Boston® Globe, ‘how women eye women as they get on the cars? They seem to take notice of every particle of dress, the shapo of the bounet and the styie of the hair, in one sharp glance. I've seen it constantly on my car. They all do it, young and old, and its done in such a supercilious manner, as if envy was the cuuse. Now I think 1t's a very offensive manifesta- tion of bad breeding, and I don’t think any kind-hearted wowman would indulge it it. “*Well, does the ‘eyeing,’ as you call it, continue long?” **Oh, no; it's done 1 an instant. The car stops and a lady gets on or off, and immediately ev woman's eye is turned in that direction, and at one sweep every detail is taken in, often with a derisi swile or a curl of the lip. I am sure few people who travel, and arve observing, can have failed to notice this treatment of women, seen when happens to 4 dressed, or is remarkable for any beauty of face or ugliness of form, and itis doncin a very marked munner when a shabbily dressed woman is in question. Then you will see a grim smile and a shrug of the shoulders as the eyeing is done.” “Don’t you imagine it’s done else- where than on tie cars?” *Lord, yes. I am told it’s done by women as they pass each other in the street, and by all couditions of women, who co each other from head-gear to shoestring.” *‘Haven’t you seen it in men?” “Well, not so much. At least, T think it is a peculiarly feminine weik- ness.” conmer AL D Peurs’ is the purest and best soap ever made. R Do N A Grand Coffee Palace, The Australinns arc a go-ahead peo- ple, and Melbourne is no mean city, says a correspondent of the New York Mail and Express. A grand coffee pal- ace has entiy been erected in Mel- bourne. The premises were originaily licensed for the sale of intoxicants but the license was bought up with the building, and extinguished by the purchasers. The nomival cap- ital of the company by which the house is owned is $1,250.600, of which $300,000 is paid up. There are 859 bedrooms in the house, capable of accommodating 500 people, suites of apartments for families, and all the ap- pliances for a first-class hotel, and it is & building of this description in every respect except that it does not trade in intoxicating liguors. The new portion of the palace, which has been added since 1884, contains 280 bedrooms, and the whole edifice cqst the company a sum of not less than $375,000 It is lighted by the electric Light, elegantly fitted, while elevators give communica- tion with every floor.
