" I'll take some sort of a house, or 111 know the reason why. And if you're not suited with it, don't blame me. And he commenced the next day in good earnest, armed with a list of houses which might apparently content a dozen families. - The very first house was a pretty little Philadelphia-brick mansion, on a side street, with a window full of hyacinths, and a sewing-machine singing away in the sitting-room. ! Mrs. Blake was making some pink frocks for her baby, and her friend Miss Daffodil was sitting with her, in a dis habille of work-apron and crimping- pins a pretty, blue-eyed girl, with a thin figure and a gingham suit, bor dered with " rick-rack" tape. " There's the bell !" said Mrs. Blake as she flung the fifth pink frock into her f 1 iend's lap, to be duly finished with button-lilies and buttons. " AY ho can it be at this time of the morning?" said Miss Daffodil, with a terrified glance at the mirror. "Oh, a house-hunter, I suppose!" said Mrs. Blake, in accents of disgust. "Please, ma'am," said Norah, appear ing at this juncture, " a gintleman to see the house." Miss Daffodil jumped up and fled precipitately into the closet. "Don't open this door, Maria, what ever you do !" said she, in a tragic whis per. " Do, not be afraid, dear," said Mrs. Blake.' .'

" Sorry to disturb you, madam," said he, pleasantly, " but I was looking for an eligible house, and the agent has put this one on my list." You are looking for yourself?" said Mrs. Blake, a little dubiously. "Of course," said Mr. Barton, who had been effectually "posted" by his sister. " Our family is small only two children and we're quite particular about a light basement, good plumbing, and water-tight roofs." (" Good gracious I" said Miss Daffodil, among the tea-cups and saucers, "it is John Barton. The base deceiver! to let us all supposes he was an unman ied Dian!" and the rosy color mantled to the very crimping-pins as she remem bered li6w she had let John Barton kiss her at the last picnic, when nobody was looking.) " I suppose," said he, all unconscious of the pretty "prisoner in the china-closet, that I'd better write down a list of the rooms and. things' ,' 4 Yes," said Mrs. Blake, " and then your wife can. come and look for herself.

("The deep-dyed villian!" thought Miss Daffodil, hysterically clasping her hands.) And the two left the room. Miss Daffodil could hear them over-, head, on the stairs, passing through the hall, and finally the front door closed with a reverberating sound, and Mrs. Blake came back to the sewing machine and pink cambric frocks. Miss Daffodil had by- this time emerged from her prison-cell and stood at the window. "What a very pleasant young gentle man 1 " taid Mrs. Blake. "He ii a miscreant!" cried Miss Daffodil, whirling around, like an opera dancer, on one foot. "Why, Jenny, what's the matter?" said Mrs. Blake, in amazement. " He has been making love to me at church sociables and picnics for three months!" cried Miss Daffodil; "and now he turns out to be a m m married man ! Oh, dear, oh, dear ! is there any bmit to the baseness of man ?" And Jenny Daffodil flung herself, sobbing, on her friend's shoulder. " Don't cry, dear! " said Mrs. Blake, j " Perhaps he didn't mean anything. I Men will flirt, you know." " But he told me he loved me." " Dear, dear ! " said Mrs. Blake. " And he asked me to marry him." " I never heard anything like it in all my life !" said Mrs. Blake, " And he gave me a ring with a little tiny spark of a diamond in it," added Miss Daffodil "Send it back, my dear," said Mrs. Blake, "at once!" Mr. John Barton could hardly credit the evidence of his sen morning when the postman handed bfni tne mysterious . sealed packet which conlainedTthe little engagement ring. "What on earth can have happened?" ne asked himself. Instinctively he turned, to his sister for consolation; but Mrs. Carmichael words. But I somehow took it for granted." " He's engaged to a very sweet young lady," said Mrs. Carmichael. " A Miss Daffodil, whom I have never seen. But just at present he is an old bachelor. And" " What geese we have both been !" cried Mrs. Blake. "Jenny, come out here this minute ! Kiss your sister-in- law that is to be. We have jumped at a conclusion m ithout any premises, and now we must jump back again." So the matter was settled. Miss Daffodil received the diamongring back again, and every one was happy Miss Daffodil in her lover, Mr. Barton in the prospect of a speedy marriage, and Mrs. Carmichael in the eligible house which her brother had secured for her occu pancy. " But if I live to be a hundred years old," says Mr. John Barton, " I'll never go house-hunting again. It's a great deal too riskv !" Here is something from the London Sanitary Record which ought to be re membered by people who are engaged in the work of renovating their dwell-j ings. It is not improbable that many i cases of mysterious illneas, and even of death, may be attributable to the cause indicated or something similar. Danger often lurks under very simple disguises: Many jvkrple .have noticed the dis agreeable odor proceeding from the size and paste of paper-hanging pervading an apartment for some time after the paper has been newly hung. M. Tallin, in tno Ilmis tf Hygiene, reports an in intesting case which has induced him to make some inquiries in this matter. A lady who from time to time came to town to supervise the decoration of her house was three times successively seized with violent sickness and head ache after sleeping in a newly papered room. M. Vallin was struck with the putrefactive odor which pervaded the atmosphere, and after examining into, the matter, came to the conclusion that il pro ceeded from the wall.

A British parlimentary return has been issued of cases of evictions which have come to the knowledge of the con stabulary in each of the years from 1849 to 1880. In 1849 90,440 persons were ceeded from the sizc-pot, with which evicted, of whom 18,373 were read- the paper-hanger in the next room was mitted.

Anise. Anise grows wild in Egypt, in Syria. Palestine and all parts of tho Levana but the Romans considered the Egyp tian and Cretan anise to be the best, especially for medicinal purposes. The product of Southern Europe i3 now looked upon with favor. Among the ancients anise seems to have been common pot-herb in every garden Although it is less used in medicine by the moderns than by the ancients, it still retains its former reputation as an excellent stomachic, particularly for delicate women and young children. The Romans chewed it in order to-keep up an agreeable moisture in the mouth, and to sweeten the breath, while some Orientals still do the same. Some of the Persian poets have sung the agreea ble qualities of the anise, and a modern" street ballad of Rome compares the slender grace of a young girl to the anise- - Anise is an annual plant growing to the height of one foot, carries a white flower, and blodms from June till August. The seeds are imported and used in large quantities on account of their aromatic and carminative proper ties. . The distilled plant, when used in blossom, yields a sweeter and more grateful tincture than can be obtained from the seeds. Anise is extensively employed by the confectioner for the purpose of flavoring comfits and cor dials. The anise-seed cordial of the shops is a compound of alcohol, anise seed and angelica. The oil is obtained by distillation from the seeds, and though habitually mixed with a great many cattle medicines, and regarded by the farmers of former generations as one of the most potent of drugs, it performs scarcely any other office than the com municating of an agreeable fragrance. The Chinese cultivate it for the season ing of dishes ; and the Japanese employ bundles and garlands of it in the cere monies of their heathenish superstition Its appearance, when out of flower, , as well as when; in bloom, is decidedly ornamental. A Lively Donkey. There is a hostler in a livery stable at Easton, Pa., that will remember Tony Denier's donkey for some time to come. The stalls were all full when the com pany arrived, and the day hostler placed the little animal in the harness-room and forgot to tell John, the night hostler, about it when he came on duty. About 3 o'clock in the morning John went into the harness-room on an errand, without taking a lantern along, and stepped on the hind foot of the donkey, which was lying down. The Turk awoke, and there was a sound of revelry by night, though just what took place will never be quite dear,' as .the donkey can't tell and the hostler won't But for an hour or more John was busy putting horse liniment on his shins, and no doubt it was one of those instances where the donkey seemed to stutter with his hind feet.

What troth there may be in an item running its course in the French prints no one can say, but it is said that in the leading banking houses in Europe what is called a detective camera is to be used. A man of suspicious appearance makes his way up to the cashier's coun ter and presents a letter of credit or a draft. The clerk, when the man's face is full front toward him, touches a little button. Presto, a concealed camera is brought into play, the sensitive plate is exposed, and in an instant the man's photograph is taken. Further than this, this wonderful detective camera is to play another role. The head of the house leaves his business and con fides it to his clerks. Some of the clerks go to sleep, or smoke cigars, or skylark, or do other things not exactly in keeping with their calling, and off starts a aeries of plates, worked by clock-work, and every action oft the clerks durincr a series of hours is re- corded. There might be eves a plei ing, though rather compromising, use qt this mechanical camera. With such an, instrument all the handsomest women at a soiree might be photographed without their knowledge, and gall en of beauties be at any one's command. Let it be hoped, however, that this camera, if it is to be used, will coly be casually assembled at the house oi a friend: The heaviest man in the room. who happened to be our host, the Rev.
