A st. Louis woman hearing that the
boarding house of her lover was IN fames,
and that he was in an upper story unable
to escape, rushed frantically to the spot,
seized ladder and mounted it, despite
the entreaties of her friends. Agilely
ascending, she soon disappeared amid the
smoke and fame which enveloped the
windows of his fourth story room. A
breathless silence fell on the multitude
below, but soon the brave girl reappeared
with her darling in her arms. As she
descended, the ladder bent and swayed
benaath the double burden, and the
increasing flames caught in her long
crinis and crinolDe, but the steamer play
ed on her INCREASINGLY, and amid shouts
which rent the skies preserver and pre-

an appropriation Of $4,000 for the New
York City Woman's Dispersary. Some
man unknown to her offered to get her
81, 500, provided she would give him all

An Odd Proposal Of Marriage.

Pitts is a sharp business man and
when Pitts goes into store to trade, he
always gets the lowest cash price, and
then says
"Well, I'll look about, and if l don'I
find anything that suits better, I'll cal
and take this"
Now, quite lately, Pitts said to him
self, II M getting rather along in years
and guess I'll get married" His business
qualities won't let him swat - so off he
travels, and calling upon lady friend
opened the convrsation by remarking that
he would like to know what she thought
about his getting married.
ooh, Mr.. Pitts, l am not so very
greatly interested, and l prefer to leave
it with yourself"
"But," says Pitts, "you are interested
and, my dear girl, will you marry me p
The young lady blushed very red, hes
itated and finally, as Pitts was very we'll
to do in the world, and morally and
financially of good standing in society
she accepted him whereupon the matter
of fact Pitts responded,
"Well, we'll, III look about and if
don't fad anybody that suits me better
than you, I'll come back"
