aDoN,T SPEAK TO HER.


"Dont speak 10 heri' There was abit-
ter sneer upon the little girls face as she
and her companion turned away from the
poorer dressed school companion.
No, little Miss, don't speak to the poor
girL Hour father swindlcd poor people
and made large property outof their hard
earnings. He was a low bred vagabond
when IA young man, and universally des-
pissed, but isinow one OF the "upper ten
At heart he is as base and low as he ever
was. But he deals in stocks and robs by
shaving bonds and mortgages. He is a
moncyed man. He is rich. He is your
father. Miss, and would not like it were
you to place yourself ON level with hon
orable poor people, Do,.t speakto her!
The girl is plainly clad and has hum
bic home and a poor mother. Her father
was ruined by one who now rolls in wealth
and died stricken man. His fine house
the early home Of the poor sirl-was
sold at a sacrifice, and purchased by tie
man who ruined him. Her mother, the
once beautiful and accomplished belle and
noble woman, takes in washing.
Don't speak tn Aerf Her sweet face is
pale and sad, and her dress is coarse, and
plainly made. Why can't the vulgar thing
dress as well as you do, and why can't her
sad-hearted mother have fine house and
ride to church in a carriage? What busi-
ness have folks to be poor? How exceed
ingly vulgar it is to work for a living!
Don't speak to her, She amt fit for
your eompany-she dom tdress well enough.
No matter if she does hear the cutting
wrods. Poor children have no feeling
It's yeur privilege to say what you are
pleased to aboutsuch kind offolks. There
is tear in her mild blue eve and quick
flush on her pale cheek, and as she passes
the group with their hoops, she draws her
checkered bonnet tightly around her face
and steals away with many a bitter sob
Her young heartis learning its first sorrow
Her wenlan's heart will need all its brave
ry. Size may triumph in tie stern and
trying struggle, o. she may give way, and
so down to worse than a grave. = $

The Bearded woman.

The papers have had something to say
lately, of a female in the East who boasts
as fine mustachois and whiskcrs as any
o,her man. The New York Tribune con
firms the story, and says she is at Bar
NUNS. She is madam Cloful;a, and
has husband and child. She permits
you to take her by the beard, and handle
her bushy whiskers for your self-eonvic-
ton; and, sooth to say, she is maYniti
cen y provided for in this particular. Her
beard and whiskers are jet black in color,
full, tl.ick, glossy, soft, and of caracious
proportion, covering her whole chin and
both her checks, almost up to her eyes,
where she shavcs them off for conven-
icncc.

FrauIIeHstein aud his great Panorama.
The great panorama of niagara, by
Godfrey NJ Frankenstcin, is nearly com
plcted. He has been engaged on the
paintings, Hunts 4Kogagine says, since
1914. This enables him to present this
great masterpiece of nature under the va
rious changes of nine years. They were
taken during all the seasons of the year,
and all hours of the day and night. The
moonlight and winter views are peculiar
ly unique and interesting What treat
it viii be to see fhis world-wonderin every
possible aspect, and as ii can only be seen
in nature during the course of a number
of yeats, in the short space of one or two
hours. Among the unusual and remark
able scenes, will be view by the light of
a fire which occurred last summer on the
Canada side not far from the Falls.

SWIFT AND HIS SERvANT.---Dean Swift,
while ajourncy and stopping alta tavern
desired his servantJ John (who by tie way,
was as eccentric as his master to bring
him his boots. John brought upthe boots
in the same state as they weretaken off the
evening previous.
'.Why didn't you polish my boots?p'
said the Dean,
There's no use in polishing them, :" re-
piled the man, '.for they would soon be
dirty again"
every true" said the Dean, and he put
on his boots. Immediately after he went
down to the landlady and told her on no
account to give his. servant any breakfast.
The Dean breakfasted and then ordered
the horses out. AS he was eady to start
John ran to him in great hurry and
said
'Mr. Dean, I didn't get my breakfast
yet"
"oh, replied the witty divine, 'Hhere's
no use in your brcakfasting, foryou would
be hungry again.
John finding his theory thrown back on
himself, submitted to the plivation with
the same stoicism as did his master vi Ii
his boots. On they rode, the Dean in
front reading his prayer book, and the
mas behind at a respectful distance, when
they were met by a gentleman, who, after
eycing the Dean very closely, accostcd
the servant thus:
81 say, my man, you and your master
seem to bea a sober pair; may | ask who
you are and where you are going?''
''We're goinsto Heaven, replied John.
"My master is praying and I'm fasting" !"
The gentleman looked asainin wonder
meht at the master and man, and then
rode off!

Not ss.he Last Rose efsumner.,,

The people of the Eastern District, in
Lincoln county, Maine, have chosen a
lady for Register of Deeds, in place of
Hezekiah Coombs, deceased. The cleo
ton was held on the 3oth ult. The re-
turns show the election of Miss Olive Rose
of Thomaston.
She had two competitors, Sylvester and
Scattering. There were 469 votes for
the Rose, and 245 for the others. This
incident has aetimalated the cloquence of
the y. /. Herald, and it breaks cut in a
fine strain:

tions cluster about that beautiful name -
Who is there that has been touched by

inous of better and brighter day for wo-
mans rights, over the length and bredth

Rose Ineligible if they dare! They will

Miss WIIEELER.-It will be remember
ed that Miss Wheeler killed young man
at Milwaukee, for seducing her underprem-
ise of marriage. She has had her trial
and been acquitted, as the following from
the Sentinel will shox::
The jury retired with the case at mid
night, Saturday. At4o'clock A. NJ, tie
jury having tien been out four tours, the
constable in attendance was ro,ified that
they had agreed on a verdict, and the
Judge, the prisoner and her counsel were
summoned to meet them in the Court
Room. s
When the jury came in, in charge of
officer Beck, the Judge, the prisoner, at
tended by her sister, and under charge of
Deputy Sheriff, Conoycr,, and Messrs
Tucker and Hamilton, counsel for the de-
fence, were tie only persons present.
Upon being asked the usual question by
the Clerk of The Court, the foreman of the
Jury read from written slip the verdict
they had found, "Iot guilty by reason ot an
sanity'' The prisoner Immediately rose,
advanced and shook hands with each of
the jurors, and then turned to speak with
her counsel. In answer to an inquiry
from Mr.. Tucker, the Judge referred to the
provision Of the r. S., that where per-
son indicted for an offence, shall be acauit-
ted by reason Of insanity, if the Court
shall deem the discharge or going at large
of such insane person, manifesily danger
Gus to the peace, and safety of communi-
ty, the Court may order him committed,
or may give him into the care of his friends
on their giving bonds that he shall be well
and securely kept. The Judge remarked
that there was nothing, in hisjulSement,
in the evidence, or the appearance of the
prisoner, requiring any such precaution,
and he should therefore direct Eer imme-
diatc discharge from custody.
