JAJLY TOMSTCJJSUJjtggKA JANUARY 14, 1886. The Host Buparior Oat. A. literary friend of mine at Bath, lays contributor to tho London Stand' ard, had boon often vastly amused at tho interest with hieh iier cat appear cd to view lior proceedings at tho writing-table. Ho would sometimes jump up besido iter and lay his paw on her wrist.

On one occasion, however, he leaped on tho tablo in front of her and watched her narrowly, and with such a Erctornatnrally knowing glanco in his right 0) with his head hold slightly on ono sido, that sho was impelled to lav down her pen and look'Rthim. What was her surprlso and delight to seo him walk deliberately to tho inkstand tako a pen in his mouth and, leap-'Ing to tho floor, coramonco traciug characters with it on tho carpet, fortunately for whleh poor Timothy had forgotten tho ink. Another day his mistress said to' him In fun: "Oh Timothy, I have lost a button off my dress. I wish you would find it." Tho animal looked at her, walked out of the room and returned in afewmlnutc3with tho missing button in his mouth. Alasl poor Timothy! ha has disappeared, and this is probably tho only pormanent record of bis whv uing ways.

Fighting Sleep with Tea. Tho praotlco of taking tea or coffee by students, in order to work at night, is downright madness, cspscially when preparing for an examination. More than half of tho casos of break-down, loss of memory, fainting, otc, which occur during severo examinations, and far moro frequently than is commonly known, are due to this. $1 frequently hear of promising students who have thus failed; and, on inquiry, havo learned in almost every instance that the victim has previous ly oruggoa nimscii wiiu iui or uuuec Sleep is tho rest of tho brain; to rob tho hard-worked brain of its necessary re'st is cerebral suicide. was a victim of this tcrriblo folly.

He undertook tho translation of tho "Life of Julius Csosar," by Napoleon III, and to do it in a cruolly short time. Ho fulfilled his contiact by silting up soveral nights successively by tho aid of strong tea or cofl'oo (I forgot which). I saw him shortly atterwnrd. In a few weeks ho had agbd alarmingly, and become quite bald, his brain gavo way and never iccovered. Thoro was but little difference between his ago and mine, and but for this dreadful cerebral strain, rendered possible only by the alkaloid (for.

otherwise ho would havo fallen to sleep over his work and thereby saved his lifo), ho might still be amusing and 'instructing thousand of readers by fresh volumes of popularized archwologlcal resoarch. Popular Science Monthly for December. A Tramp's Now Trick. An elderly, charitable-looking gentleman, wearing an air of prospo-ity, was rushing into tho postofllco on Sunday when ho was approached by a dilapidated, seedy-looking tramp. Tho latter held in his hand a sealed envelope, directed in lead-pencil and smeared with tho marks of grimy fingors.

"Will you pleaso givo mo a couple of pennies to send a letter to my mother, sir? I hate just got out of a hospital and I want to send for money to go homo." Tho gentleman was overcome bv tho piteous appeal and dioppedt a coin in tho outstretched hand. As ho issued forth from tho other end of tho big granite structure no was met ny tuo same individual witli tho same story and tho same dirty envelope. "Why, you scoundrel, I just gave you enough to send your mother a dozen letters," shouted tho benevolent gentleman. "You miserable wretch. You're an impostor." "'1 hat's a now racket," said tho policeman on tho corner, "and that rascal has been working it very successfully, too.

Nearly everyone ho asks gives him something. 1 havo driven him away nmtln and again, but ho comes back." Fliiladelphia Record. Old Hickory in Providence. But thoro occurs to mo at this moment ono littlo episode in our college lifo which may bear repeating to those of tho present generation. Irefer to the visit which Gen.

Andrew Jackson, then president of tho United States, with soveral members of his cabinet, paid to Brown university. It occurred in the summer of 1832 or 1833. Thero wore no railroads then. Ho and his retlnuo camo by stage-coach and steamboat from Washington to Providence. Thoy stopped at tho City hotol.

All our distinguished men called upon them, among others tho venerable Moses Brown. It used to bo related what ho said to tho president on being introduced: "I am glad to see thee. I have voted for all thy predecessors." Dr. Wyland and the faculty called upon him and invited him to visit tho col-lego. Ho came, and let mo toll you how he camo.

There was quite a pro- cession of carriages. Wo hadn't many "Hackney coaches in Providence then, but Gen. Jackson camo on horseback, upon a famous white horse owned by that excellent man, Charles H. Childs, livery stable keopcr on Orango street. I shall nevor forget tho sceno in that littlo old chapel after Gen.

Jackson had dismounted and ascended the stage with Mr. Van Buren, tho faculty, and a few other distinguished gentlemen. But Gen. Cass, who was to address tho students, was notthoro. By some accident his arrival was delayed, and tho audience was quite uneasy.

In a few moments ho came, and I can see him now almost as plainly as I saw him then, ascending tho eastern steps to tho stage of that littlo chapel, with his white beaver hat in his hand. Conscious that ho was late, ho advanced at once to the front, and in a neat littlo speech of five minutes, while be pointed to President Jackson as the example of what porsovoring effort and loyalty to duty might accomplish in this relio, he stirred the hearts of his hearers, and I well remember what Professor Goddard said to myself and Henry Anthony of tho speech as wo wero caving tho building: "Neat, very A Graduate's the Providence Journal.
