how to Receive a Proposal.
FOR LADIES ONLY.

1. Especially recommended to
blondes. Pause, sigh very softly
then open your eyes with a good
deal of wonder (of course you have
been trying to make it out, and
can't, look into your lovers face.
and say; "What-what do you
mean, dear Alfredo" If the last
words are spoken with little trem,
BILE, so much the better.
2, Very suitable for brunettes.
Give start, a glance at the ques-
toner, turn aside. and be unable to
speak your emotion; one hand
pressed high upon your bosom will
express this effectually.
3. Safe for everybody, and gener-
ally acts as clincher. Burst into
tears, covering your face with your
hands. If you can't cry, drop your
head upon the gentleman's shoulder,
and murmur, "Oh, William

A Physician on the Stand.

The standard legal dictionaries in
use may be searched in vain, fol
more accurate definition of legal
terms than those recently given by
a physician in Pulaski, Tennessee,
as reported to us by a leading mem
Der of the bar in that place. Mr..
B. and Mr.. L., opposing council in
a pending case, were engaged in ia
king depositions to be used in the
trial of cause. The question as
to a certain woman's soundness OF
mind being in controversy, physi.
clan was called as medical expert,
and during his examination the fol
lowing dialogue took place:
Question. Do you think this lady
is of sound mind?
Answer. No, sir; do not.
Q. Does she know the difference
between ''power of attorney" and
IAN absolute conveyance?"
!. A. Of course she don't, and there
are very few women who do.
Q. Do you know the difference?
A. Yes, sir; of course / do; do
you suppose l am an ignoramus?
Q. Well, sir; will you be kind en-
ough to tell us the difference?
A. Well-well, power of attor-
ney'' is the strength of mind of any
particular lawyer, and san absolute
conveyance" is hack, an omnibus,
or railroad car, or something of that
sort.

Newspapers and Children.

No careful observer will hesitate
to youch for the truth of the fol
lowing testimony:
A school-teacher who had enjoyed
the benefit of long practice of his
profession, and had closely watched
the influence of newspapers upon
the minds of family of children,
states, as the result of his observa-
ton, that, without exception, those
scholars of both sexes and all ages
who have access to newspapers at
home, when compared with those
who have not, are:
1. Better readers, excelling in pro-
nuneiation, and reading more under
standingly.
2. They are better spoilers, and
define words with greater ease and
accuracy.
3. Theysobtain knowledge in geo
graphy in almost half the time it
requires with others, as the news
paper has made them familiar with
the location of important places and
nations, their governments and do
ings.
4. They are better grammarians;
for having become familiar with
every variety of style in the news
paper, from commonplace advertise
ments to the finished and classical
oration of the statesman, they more
readily comprehend the meaning of
the text, and consequently analyze
its construction with accuracy.
5. They write better compost
tons in better language, containing
more thoughts clearly expressed.

A bachelor had the blues. ant

"A bachelor had the blues, and
applied to a doctor for some medi.
cine. The doctor inquired into his
case, and wrote a prescription in
Latin, which the bachelor took to q
drug store. Translated the pre-.
scription read:
Seventeen yards of silk with q
woman in it."
After the druggist got through
laughing, the bachelor proposed to
a lady that evening and was married
in two weeks.

As to serving the Lord with colo

Preachers go on see-sawing, droning,

yawning and folding their arms, and
then say that God is Withholding

he finds himself enlisted in the
ragged regiment, blames his luck;
and some churches have learned the
same wicked trick. 1 believe that
when Paul plants and Apollos wa

have no patience with those who
throw the blame on God when it
belongs to themselves.

REPARTEE.

| There are some persons who seen
to be endowed with an electric cur
rent of wit, which sparkles and
flashes when it meets an opposing
one; and ready wit, or the faculty
of making quick and spicy repartees
is a valuable gift, and the source OF
much pleasure, provided it is used
with due regard to the feelings OF
others. A man of genuine wit and
humor may attach to himself many
warm and devoted friends but a
sarcastic, cynical person is always
an uncomfortable companion.
1t is related, that, as some friends
of Campbell, the author of Hohen-

UNDERTONES.
BY JOSEPHINE POLLARD

o shallow were the waves that beat
Their music on the pebbly strand,
And fragile was the tiny fleet
They brought to land
Softly broke the silver thread
That drew its line along the shore,
Itseemed the echo of tread
On crystal floor.
Soft zephyrs played among the trees,
Their whispers every leaflet stirred,
Andyet above the tuneful breeze
Sang many bird.
And lightly did our hearts prolong,
A summer mornings melody,
While gently swept the wings of song
Ger land and sea.
Thus 10 the conscious soul there steal
Those undertones, so deep, so grand,
That Natures majesty reveal
On sea and land.
A summer wave, that scarcely wakes
An echo as it glides along,
Is but the overture that breaks
In oceans song.
These threads of melody we twine
When Youth and Hope are in their spring
Are preludes to theme divine,
Our souls must sing.
o poets, who with subtle speech
The prophets of all time appear,
Have We no tones that never reach
A human ear?

MY FAMILIAR.
BY JOHN G. SAKE.

Again hear that creaking step.
He's rapping at the door! b..
Too well know the boding sound
That ushers in bore.
do not tremble when meet
The stoutest of my foes,
But heaven defend me from the friend
Who comes-but never goes.
He drops into my easy chair,
And asks about the news;
Hepeers into my manuscript,
And gives his candid views;
He tells me where he likes the line,
And where he's forced to grieve;
He takes the strangest liberties
But never takes his leaveI
He reads my daily paper through
Before I've seen word;
He scanes the lyric THAT Iwrote),
And thinks it quite absurd;
He calmly smokes my last cigar,
And coolly asks for more;
He opens everything he sees
Except the entry door! d.
! He ttfks about the fragile health,
Andt tells me of the pains
He suffers from a score of ills
OF which he ne'er complains;
And how he struggled once with Death
To keep the fiend at bay; .s
On themes like those away he goes
But never goes away! -
He tells me of the carping words
Some shallow critic wrote,
And every precious paragraph
Familiarly can quote.
He thinks the writer did me wrong;
He'd like to run him through!
He says thousand pleasant things
But never says 'Adieup'
Wiener he comes-that dreadful man
Disguise it as may,
know that, like an autumn rain, ~
He'll last throughout the day;
In vain speak of urgent tasks;
Invain scowl and pout;
A frown is no extinguisher- a....-
1t does not put him out!
Imean to take the knocker of; ..l.. .
Put Grape upon the door;
Or hint to John that am gone
To stay a month or more. lsf
i do not tremble when meet
The stoutest of my foes;
But heaven defend me from the friend
Who never, never goes!

HAS ANT ANY FRIENDS LEFT ,

The New York Sun, edited by Charles
A. Dana, Assistant Secretary of War
under Stanton-and that should be sufiS
cient guarantee of his RadiCalism-in-
quires whether Grant has any friends left,
and then answers his own inquiry as fol-
lows:
president Grant is reported as having
recently said, in conversation with Sena,
tor Wilson, or Massachusetts, that he did
not attach much importance TO the course
of the Chicago Tribune. He thinks it
about as well to have that journal against
him as for him.
'Can anybody tell us what influential
newspaper is sincerely favorable to the
ambition of Gen. Grant, Is there q single
important journal which earnestly desires
and advocates his denomination or re-
election? Or has he friend-we mean
a real friend-in either Hsuse of Con-
gress?
'When President Grant began his ca
reer, he deliberately manifested his con-
tempt for the press, by refusing to ap-
point the Hon. Horace Greeley as Minis
ter to England, and selecting for that
place Mr.. J. L. Motley, a man whose
unftness for any diplomatic office had
been demonstrated by his career and con-
duct while Minister at Vienna a few years
before. Having thus insulted the most
loyal portion of the Republican press in
the person of its leading editor-Mr.
Greeley was also the founder of the Re-
publican party-Gen. Grant is only con-
sistent when he speaks with scorn of
such a journal as the Chicago Tribune.
But if he has no friends either in the
press or in Congress, what chance can
there be for his long having many among
the peOpleln
