Thackeray created quite erroneous I Impressions of himself by often lndulg lug In Irony in the presence of people ] ?who were incapable of understanding ? It. One curious Instance which he gave ^ was this: Thackeray had been dining at the Garrick and was talking In tho ?moklng room after dinner with vari- i ous club acquaintances. One of them happening to have left his cigar case at home, Thackeray, though disliking the man. who was a notorious tuft hunter, good naturedly ofTered him one of his cigars. The man accepted the cigar, but. not finding It to his liking, had the bad taste to say to Thackeray. "I say. Thackeray, yon won't mind my saying I don't think much of this cigar?" Thackeray, no doubt irritated at the man's ungraciousness and bear ing in mind his tnft bunting predilec tions. quietly responded, "You ought to, my good fellow, for it was given me by a lord." Instead, however, of detecting the Irony, the dolt Immedi ately attributed the remark to snob bishness on Thackeray's part and to the end of his days went about declar ing that "Thackeray had boasted that he had been given a cigar by a lord." Maternal Instinct. -Children that jell like tbat ought either to be gagged or kept at home," remarked the lraacible gentleman with the white beard to the boa conductor. "And faces like the one wot you're Bcarln* people with," chipped In the mother of tbe noisy Infant, "oughter be made Into door knockers or seot ter tbe chamber o' 'orrors." Tbe gentleman with the patriarchal face fungus took a brick red complex Ion. *1 know It's awkward at times"? be commenced. "Ifa inore'n awkward; it's nothln' short o' 'orrlble," mapped tbe lady, as she once more glanced at tbe sorry elderly man's net of features. When the rest of the passengers tit tered audibly the okl gentleman came to tbe conclusion that It behooved him to speak to tbe point "1 mean tbe child"? be tried once more. "Aud you didn't mean It no good." returned tbe lady, "else you wouldn't a looked at It."?London Ideaa. j The Expsnss of a Wife. A wife Is a decided addition to tbe demands upon one's purse. In that aen?e. however sensible snd managing she may be. she Is expensive. But everything worth baring has Its price of one sort or another, and there are some things which cost much without which life Is bartlly worth living. Said Thiers: "Most men contemplate making some self denial when they marry. They think they will give up such and such expensive pleasures. Later on. when they discover that they cannot do so. snd st the ssme time tbey lack tbe means to Indulge, tbey complain tbat It Is tbe extravagance of tbelr wives which causes tbe incoo venlence." Which wise saying la applicable to men In other countries besides that of France.?New York American. Reiterated.
