A TIMELY LEssoN.-It is said to be diff
hcult thing for woman to get ready to 90
anywhere. And yet there is nothing she dis
likes more than an intimation that she NAV
possibly miss the train. Brayfogle gives an
instance OF this. Mr.. Brayfogle was to take
the 10 o'clock train on the Bee Line to yisi%
some relatives in an Interior town. Having
suffered on previous occasions Tor iniudiciouS
suggestions, Brayfogle thought that for once
be would let things take their natural course.
SO he slipped his coffee and ate his eggs and
toast, while Madame curled and powdered.
and danced attendance ON the looking glass
and tied bark on the back of her head Then
B.ayfogle sat by the stove an hour and read
the morning paper, while Madame still
continued to get ready. AT last Just as he
reached the final paragraph of reading matter.
and was beginning on the advertisements
Madame tied her bonnet strings under her
chin, took one long, lingering, loving look at
the image reflected in the glass, and sweetly
announced:
swell, my dear, Pm ready"
"Ready for whats" asked Bray, in well-af-
fected astOnishment.
"To 90 to the depot, to be sure" said Mrs.
Brayfogle, tartIy.
"Oh" said Brayfoge, "Id forgotten; well,
Madame" continued he, looking at his watch,
THAT train has been gone thirteen minutes
just keep on your things, and you'll be ready

The Des Moines Register complies a state.
meht OF the efforts made by women to secure
nomination to Office at various Iowa conyen-
tions during the present season. First tbera
was Des Moines lady, whose name is not
mentioned, who advanced upon the RepubIl-
can state convention with a resolution favor.
ing the admission of women to the ballotbox
and to office, but who found that body formed
into hollow square, as it were, to resist be
charge. Next there came into the Montgom-
cry county Republican convention a represen-
tative of the oppressed sex, who desired to be
nominated for county superintendent (of
schoofs,) but who, though fanked on either
hand by bevy OF lovely sympathizers. was
outnanked by brute of a man who had been
SO un9allant as to go around and bespeak
nearly ali the votes before the delegates came
together. Again, the sex put in an appear
ance at the republican convention of Monroe
connty,which body was asked by 100 petitions
TO nominate Miss Belinda Yocum to the same
office above mentioned. Here, as in Mont
gomery county, previous engagements
SUCH as Miss Belinda had herself doubtless
pleaded before she turned her attention to
the grave affairs OF politics-superyened 10
thwart her plans. The women who applied
for office III the cases mentioned are referred
TO as ladies OF high character, and as the
State OF Iowa has shown some galantry in
the way of electing women to office in time
past, the query may arise, why the sex has
been left TO do the wall-fower business in
State politics this year. Perhaps because the
novelty OF electing female clerks and superin-
tendents has worn OFT, and the average free
man ceases to be gallant over an "old story.n
Perhaps, again, the ungallantry is all charge

BUSINESS lDIoMs.-A Texas paper has
been studying what it calls professional pecu-
liarities, or the tendency of a man to identity
himself with his business, and gives some in =
teresting results. A New York lawyer is in
stanced who, in his zeal to use old Weller's
pet legal weapon, an alibi roared forth: "We
can prove that at the very time we were ac-
cused OF perpetrating this dreadful deed. we
were serving out term Of imprisonment at
the Tombs for larceny" In '.Pelham" the
same trait is noticed in the fashionable tailor.
who remarks to his customer, ''We are little
narrow here; we must be padded there" etc. :;

fish, however, is the undertaken. He is called

ENGLISH REPUBLIcANIsM.-A London cor
respondent who has made special study of
the Republican movement in Great Britain,
condenses the result of his inquiries in an ac-
count of the working of the organization now
in full activity to make the abolition OF mon
archy the leading question in Eng lsh poliucs
or the pivot of an English revolution. Chas.
Bradlaugh, the head OF the Republican move
ment in England, in a recent interview declar-
ed himself able now to pull down the monar-
chy though not quite ready to build up re-
public. He said that Victoria is the last mon
arch who shall sit on the English throne, that
he deprecates a revolution before 1876, when
he will be perfectly prepared for it, but that
whenever the government throws down the
gage to him he will pick it up.
