TABLE TALK.

Beactifdl winter weatlior. " Lot of meetings to-night. " Buffalo gals " afc the Opora House, Mr Monk addresses the Dovonpoffc elefr tors. • Mr E. W. Morrison speaks afc St. James'g Hall. Musical entertainment at the V.M.C.A, Hall. • i Mi' Esley's lecture on " The Catacombs of - Rome." ' Wintertreat to St. Paul's Sunday scholars at the Choral Hall. Who says thatsecular'education can nevetf I exalt a nation ? France has now more schools than any other great European country. Sir Robert Stout is to have a hard fio-hfc for his seat in Parliamsnt. ° \ Intending pupils at the University Col lege drawing classes are to be enrolled afr the Museum to-night. Books alone can never teach the use of books. i Long stories are in circulation, about the brotherly feeling that has been prevalent of! late in the Electoral Registration Office. I Suggested new reading of "Burps, to be inscribed over the office door-- ' A Kincr can make a belted TCnio-ht- A Marquis, Duke, and n.r^J--^ But an honest man's abor . r i^<- ..

Some fellows work, Some fellows think, Some fellows shout. And some fellows drink. Some spend free'v, But there are some Who never, never agitato The tintinabulum. Believe after trial, and judge before friendship. Subscriptions received towards testing, plant at Thames give promise of the scheme' being carried out very soon. In ancient times kissing a pretty girl was a cure for the toothache. Auckland! " dudes " with the toothache think the old1. cure the best. j "With one consent they made excuse", is true of many things, apart from th«| Scriptural reference, for instance, of| workers in connection with the Shoo! Hours Bill. rj The assistants, while quite willing to enjoy reasonable hours, are said to beun-i willing to take a share of the work neces- sary ta secure colonial interest in the pro-! posed bill; not that the work is being leffr undone, but it is the old adage " Work: the willing horse." • Don't call a very large, strong, sinewy: man a prevaricator. If you are sure he is a* prevaricator hire another man to break the news to him. t Sydney folks are alarmed because ancer-; tificated doctors have taken to killing thef people. They prefer that work should ba done by the regular dustmen of the profes-j sion. ' | A chemist sued a Wellington man lasb' week for 21 boxes of pills which had all1 been supplied within 28 days, and during that time the defendant's wife had taken them all. The defendant was a widower when the case came on. Wonder if it was a " quack " who ordered the poor woman to swallow all that stuff. Even a certificated doctor should not escape censure if he did such a thing. Phrenology is a fraud. To read a man's character, look at his trousers. If they bag at the pockets he has money ; if they bag at the knees he has brains. Mr Josiah Hipkins seeks letters patenb for his new process of smelting the titanifer-i ous iron of New Zealand. Very "credit" able ! It is said that the Auckland wholesale houses are moving in the direction of limiting credit. Sudden joy often kills. A London polio® constable, who suddenly became possessed of £2,000, drank himself to death in twenty four hours. There are now about eighty boys boarded out from Kohimarama Industrial School. Something like " retrenchment." Pastor Spurgeon, of Auckland Tabernacle, in con sideration of the dull times has asked the congregation to knock LIOO a year off his salary. . .'■' That's a proper example for some other folks with big "screws." The reverend " Tommy" persistently declines to hear a " call from the Lord " to higher stipends. ; ■ The late Captain Roberts was so like Sir George Grey in personal appearance that he would have passed for his " doppelganger." Mr Wm. Cooper, Karangahape Road, Auckland, is the inventor of a patent im provement in waterproof leggings. A man who was recently charged with larceny as a bailee at Wellington is seek ing L2OO damages for malicious prosecu tion. Sir John Dean Paul, a British Baronet, is earning a living as a photographer in! London. , ~. \ That's nothing! There are several, British Baronets eking out a miserable j existence as bottle-washers and billiard-1 markers. Yes ; and a poor baronet, Tiohborne by; name, is getting a livelihood in New York; by exhibiting himself at a " penny show." [, Mr E. S. Brook,of Wharehine, is patantea, of an improvement of wire measures. Near Clinton, Otago, on Wednesday, la3t, a child of three years old was drowned' by falling from its mother's back, while sha, was wading across a stream, j Christohurch working men are protest ing against the constitution of the Labour. Bureau there. \ The County of Ohinemuri haa been created a river district, i ■ . The beautiful silver service to be pre sented to Mrs Thomson tomorrow is on view at Mi' Kohn'a jewellery shop, ' Wellington "Post" virtuously indignant at an alleged " disgraceful intrigue " to get rid of Sir Julius Vogel, Why did the "Post" desert the Treasurer when iti, thought his, side was losing ? t Dunedin Dock Tru&t have authorised Mr Elder, at present in London, to. sell tha Trust s 5 per cent, debentures for the loan ofL7S,QOQat L9O, The chairman sta.te.fi that this would give, them L 67,000, That' sum, with, the rents, would be, sufficient tc construct the secon<j graving dock, >
