His Best Points.
A young man who is not verv bright.,
out likes to affect the sporting character,
recently bought a horse, and he thinks
he is the handsomest horse in tho United
States. The young man was showing
tha animal to a man who really knows
eomethinc about horses, pointing out all
the animal's pood points. When he got
through. praising tha beast, the other
spoke up and said, "All you say about
th animal ia so, but you Lave omitted
two of his very best points, " ' 'What are
they?" "Well, in tha first place, nobody
is ever going to steal the animal from
you, and, secondly, if any body should
steal him, you would have no trouble iu
frrertalung him on foot. "Erchanoe. .

Monkey Shootinj In; Gambia.
The mere fact of alanghtering monkeys
will probably not cause any gvet degree
of pleaaure to any ono aspiring to tha
title of sportsman, though at the same
time a man oh-Kwng to kill as maoy as .
possible might yet not consider himself
altogether wanton in his sport, for thl
monkeys may be termed vermin. They
are a great nuisance to the agriculturist,
and cause much loss, especially in the
crrortndr.ut plantations, here they fre-
nuentlv pick tho seed out of the ground

the doR-faced monkey is easy, but to
make a bag is quiet another matter. You
may knock him out of a tree, or you
may bowl him over on the ground, DUt
you will not find him on the spotwhaw
