AN UNHAPPY ELOPEMENT.

Society in Fayettville, n. Y, was not
long since thrown into ferment by the
announcement that young man, the
son of wealthy gentleman in that vii
lage, had eloped with young girl only
sixteen years of age, whose parents
though honest, were poor. This young
couple, wrapped in each others love-
were n trite representative of the quota
ton, "Two souls with but a single
thought, and that ''thosght was to
get married. But the parents OF both
objected. Those OF the young man had
higher aspirations for him than TO wed
the daughter of poor man. lie must
allow them to choose for him. He wan
ted wife he would love. They wanted
him to have a wife who possessed the
only qualification they care tor-money.
Such one as they had found in Wis
consin, and such one they were deter
mined he should marry.
The parents of the girl were opposed
to the union because she was too young,
and perhaps on account OF the opposi-
ton of the parents Of the lover.
''The course of true love never did
run smooth" The young couple deter
mined to overcome all obstacles and
make the way smoother.
The father of the young man having
selected q bride for his son and having
made up his mind that his son must
marry the Wisconsin heiress, fits him
out for the occasion, puts money IN his
purse (S250) and bids him God speed
to the house of the bride intended by
the stern parent The son feigns acqui-
csceuce, and the old man sees him off
in the foolish belief that all is well.
Wien the first station west of SYRIA
cuse was reached, however, the son
leaves the train regardless of his through
ticket and returns to Syracuse, where he
engages hack and hastens TO fayette
vile where his lovely Dulcinea Chat
isn't her namc,) awaits him. Shethrows
bundle of clothing out of the window,
follows as soon as she can by an easier
descent and they are off. They hasten
to Milwaukee, are married, and here the
novels would leave them. This is not 4
novel but 'true story and the sequel
shows that when poverty comes in at
the door love flies out at the window.
The young mans money being used
up, his expenses at a first class hotel be
ing more than he can bear, his love
takes wings, goes out at the window,
and he is unhappy. He writes his faith
or that he regrets the step he has taken,
and no doubt the next step will be 4
divorce. He has married Ill haste to
repent at leisure The young bride still
remains true to her tickle husband, and
writes her friends that she is happy; but
a cloud is rising over her life which will
darken it forever.

VERY AIRY COSTUME.

a New York letter to the ST. Louis
Republican, says -
The latest French made dresses are
dresses no more they are mere dra-
pings, with fcarfully low necks, absence
Of all sleeves, mere strap going over
the naked shoulder, joining the dress at
the small of the back and at the pit OF
the stomach. The skirt is strangely and
wonderfully bung. 1t caps the folds; it
is caught high at the hip, or in the
back, and is shaped tight about the en-
tire figure. From beneath this drapery
streams out two-yard train. Outdoor
costumes are made, as far as the drape-
ry is concerned, in the same style.
The fashions demand revolving pc
destals, and what dancers term the ''slOw
movements No dress of this kind
could be taken on its owners back i'll a
hurry anywhere. OF coarse corsets and
a good many other articles Of underwear
hitherto deemed indispensable will have
to be taken off for the Empire waist
At very swell wedding reception late
ly the hightoned bellies held their arms
like trussed fowls, to prevent the silk
and lace suspenders that did duty as
dress waists from falling off their shohl-
ders. The same bridal party were, to
the number Of a dozen, photographed,
and if were to send copy up to Con
necticut I'd not only be prayed for in
the churches as one lost, but Id be LA
bic to indictment for sending indecent
pictures by mail.
No gloves That's dreadful for nice
looks. No corsets That's bad for COM
fort And no waists to our dresses !
and that's going TO be cool for summer,
if it possesses no other decided advan-
tare.

A colored minister. preaching at the
North Methodist Church at Shelbyyille,
KY, on Sunday night week, said some
thing, as we learn from the Sentinel,
worthy of appearing in print. With
his long kinky locks and bony fingers
and eyes rolling fearfully, he wildly
clutched at the air, and exclaimed:
"Bredren and sisters, if you want to
90 to Louisville, yer have to pay yer
way; if you want to 60 to SimPsonyille,
yer got to pay yer way; if You want TO
90 tc Frankfort, yer got to pay;
But here stands the great big gospel car,
An God done pay yer far,
But yer WON'T get on and ride up thar.
-Carlisie Mercury.

FOR THE LADIES.
BY A LADY.

I am writing to the ladies,
Of the fashions as they go,
And if they mean to follow them,
/ would really like to know
1t is getting to be the fashion
For all to have their will,
And if they are opposed at all
To petition for a bill.
1t has got to be the fashion,
Ifyou are married to a man
With pocket full Of money
To get it if you can;
And if he won't let you have it,
To do with as you like,
Tell the people he abuses You
And scolds you day and night.
If he should chance to grumble
About your talking so,
Tell him you won't be scolded
By any man you know;
Tell him that you will follow
In your mothers footsteps still,
But will go a little farther,
And sue him for bill.
And now for a petition
To some lawyer that You know,
And charge him with severity,
Just as the fashions go;
BE sure TO place an injunction
On all that he can claim,
And tell him when you've done 1t
He IS all the one to blame.
Now make proposition,
That if he you will give
A certain amount Of money, .
You will 90 home with him to live
But if he will not do it,
Be revenged on him you will;
You will do your best to ruin him,
Get all and-get a bill.
There is Livingstone and Heaton,
To help you they're the men;
And Asahel Peck sits waiting
TO WELD the ready pen;
While Heath will do the grlnnlng,
TO give dignity to the scene,
And then you're sure of winning
AS all before have been.
Now would it not be better
TO let such fashions be,
And do the very best you can
TO live in peace harmony
Let patience be virtue,
Let love your bosom fill,
And remember,in His own good time
God will give you a bill.
And now I say to one and all,
Don't follow such course,
For It's ashame and disgrace
To sue for a divorce.
There is q better fashion
TO follow if you will
Honor and respect your husbands,
And not sue them for bill.

AN ACT OF CRUELTY.-Cl

AN ACT OF CRUZ LI1.-Chap
ped hands and faces are the most serl-
Gus annoyances that farmers, and peo-
pie who labor much out of doors, expe-
rience from exposure. Exposed persons,
especially children, repeatedly suffer
intensely from great cracks upon the
hands, that often bleed. 1t is cruel to
allow ones self or others to suffer IN
this way, when the means of positive
prevention are SO easy to be had, and
so cheaply, as to pay ten cents for a
cake of Hand Sapolio. Hand Sopolio
is not only better than the costliest soap
for removing dirt, but it prevents chap
ping, and renders the skin soft and pli-
able. Sold everywhere.

DROPPING a For.-Mr. w. C., OF
Elliott city, conceited snob, was so
fond of fine clothing that he reveled in
them by day, and dreamed of them by
night. One evening he visited ayoung
lady, and as he removed his overcoat,
ETC., in the hall, preparatory to entering
the parlor, the lady overheard him utter
the following sensible remarks =.
Taking his overcoat and hanging 1T
up, he said "IIang there, you fifty dol
lar overcoat y Pulling off his gloves
and putting them on the table Lay
there, you five dollar gloves y Placing
his hat on the rack Hang there, you
ten-dollar hat !" Putting his cane in
the corner: "Stand there, you fifteen
dollar cane !"
Then entering the parlOr, he was
about to sit down, when the young lady
pulled the chair from under him, and as
she left the room, said
''Lie there, you two-ccnt fool?
He has not been seen around that
house since.
