The Exlgency of a TrOusseau.

During the recent financial excitement in
Chicago but one woman succeeded in fairly
melting one of the directors of certain
bank. She was young woman, not particu-
larly pretty, perhaps, but interesting, and she
had tears in her eyes, and $3.50 in the bank.
She rushed frantically to one of the directors,
and asked him if she could not draw her
money.
II am very sorry, madame" said he, "but
can't help you to it just now."
But must have it Immediately" she re-
turned passionately. "It's all I have in the
world"
"Well, my dear madame, you must have
patience as well as the rest.
''But mine is an urgent case, and can't
wait because"
"Well. because what?"
because" said she, with smile on her
lips and tear in her eye, "because I'm go
ing to be married, and I've got to get some
things. The man I'm going to marry has
not cent to pay the minister, and he has
only one leg, and I've got to see to everything
myself" =
The benevolent director dove into his
pocket and produced his private purse, out
of which he paid her the amount, and she
went on her way rejoicing.

A SOrely Tried Husband.

Rev. Alvah Wiswall, of Trinity Church,
New York, makes reply to the charges of
Mrs. Wiswall against him for squandering
her property, and makes out a pretty bad
case for the other party. When he married
her she had property to the value of $58, ,O33.
He offers to prove that every charge ih that
property advised and carried out by him, has
been to the profit of her estate, but that the
dissipation of her property is due to her un-
bounded extravagance, against his wish and
remonstrance. He gives the amounts of her
bills for ten years, for which he says he can
show vouchers, and they foot upOver $70.-
600. One year she maintained an equipage
costing $4,000, and at the same time incurred
an expense of $1,387.5O in carriage hire.
This gentleman has always devoted his salary
to family expenses. and has run" himself
for less than $500 year. At the present
time, after paying the rent of Mrs. Wiswall's
house, the wages of her servant, and $3.50 q
day for her support, he has left from his an
nual %, 600 just $67.50. Mr.. Wiswall denies
any unhusband- like treatment of his heiresS
wife, and, altogether, represents himself to
the authorities of Trinity a. IN abused man.

The Etiquette OF BoWlng.

An exchange says: This is SO simple that
one would suppose it scarcely possible that
difference of opinion could exist; and yet
there are some who think it breach OF po-
litcness if one neglects to bow, although
meeting half a dozen times on promenade
or in driving. Custom has made it necessary
to bow only the first time in passing; after
that, exchange of salutstions is very properly
not expected. The difference between a
courteous and familiar bow should be re-
membered by gentlemen who wish to make a
favorable impression. A lady dislikes to re-
ceive from a man with whom she has but
slight acquaintance u bow, accompanied by
broad smile, as though he were on the most
familiar terms with her. 1t is far better to
err on the other side, and give one OF those
stiff ungracious bows which some men in
dulge in. Those gentlemen who smile with
their eyes instead of their mouths give the
most charming bows AS for men who bow
charmingly at one time and with excessive
hauteaur at others, according as they feel in
a good or bad humor, they need never De
surprised if the person thus treated shouid
cease speaking altogether. A man should al
ways lift his hat to lady.

DISTINCT and pleasant enunciation in either
sacred or secular vocal music is a rare at
tainment. Often it is wholly impossible to
understand the words sung; sometimes the
melange of nonsense that seems to be uttered
is simply ridiculous. Singers who give no
thought to this matter may profitably study
upon the following stanzas, which purport,
rather absurdly, to be sure, to be the musical
efforts of fashionable young lady seated at
the piano:

An Old.time Teamster.

He was an old teamster, and knew not only
every inch of the road that led to the distant
market town to which we were going, but
every landlord, groom and barkeeper on the
way. A man OF such vast geographical knowl-
edge, and such extensive and interesting ac-
quaintance with men, became to me most
important parsonage. When he had amused
himself long enough with stories told to ex-
cite my imagination, he turned to me sharply
and said:
"Boy, do you ever tell lies ?"
eyes, sir" answered without hesitation.
"You do? Then why didn't you lie when
asked the question:
because never lie except to please peo-
ple," l replied.
ooh you are one of the story -tellers are
your he said in tone of severity.
Eyes, SIR"
"Well, then, you ought to be f1ogged. If
l had story telling boy would fog it out
of him. Truth, boy; always stand by the
truth. 1t was only this time last year that I
was carrying load of goods down the noun
tain for q family the same as yours, and
there was little boy went with me, the same
as you are going now. was sure l smelt
tobacco. Said I, I smell tobacco He grew
red in the face, and charged him with hav-
ing some in his pocket He declared he had
none, and l said, 'We shall see what will
come to liars pitied him, for knew
something terrible would happen. A strap
broke, the horses started on run and off
went the boy. l stopped them as soon as
could, ran back and picked him up insensi-
BILE, with as-handsome plug of tobacco in
his pocket as you ever saw, and the rascal
had stolen it from his grandmother! Always
speak the truth, my boy, always speak the
truth"
''And did you steal the tobacco from him?"
asked.
mo, lad, TOOK it and used it because
knew it would hurt him, and couldn't bear
the thought of exposing him to his grand
mother
''Do you think lying is worse than steal
ing2" asked.
''That is something we can't settle. Tobac-
co is very cleansing and preserving to the
teeth, and am obliged to use it, Do you
see that little building we are coming to?
That is Shows store, and now, if you are a
boy that has any heart-any real heart-and
if you have saved up few pennies, you will
go in there and get stick of candy for your
self and a plug of tobacco for me. That
would be the square thing for boy to do
who stands by the truth, and wants to do
good turn to the man that helps him along"
and he looked me in the eye SO steadily and
persuasively that resistance was impossible,
and my poor little purse went back into my
pocket painfully empty of that which had
seemed like wealth. h.-H05l0nd's Arthu1 BOa-

Too Sharp to be Caught.

Innocence is beautiful attribute of young
womanhood, but if innocence and worldly
wisdom are incompatible, we prefer rather
to escape the snares and pitfalls with which
all large cities abound, than to be so innocent
as to walk unsuspectingly into dangerous
places, and to their own destruction.
A short time ago u young girl looking for
position by which she mi ght earn u re-
specialize livelihood, noticed an advertise
ment, Ostensibly of an unmarried lady of
means, who wished ga young woman as
companion"
Aiming herself with references, the young
indicated in the advertisement, and ringing
at the door, was shown into darkened par
lor, the walls of which, when she became ac-
customed to the dim light, she, to her hor-
ror, found covered with pictures of the most
obscene and disgusting character. AT once,
being city-bred girl, she comprehended that
she had been decOyed into house of ILL
fame, and without waiting for the advent of
the mistress of the establishment, whom she
had been told would see her in few min
utes, she proceeded to the door, intending to
depart without giving any notice to the in
mates of the den.
To her surprise, she found the door firmly
fastened and the key Withdrawn from the
lock. Nothing -daunted, she pulled the bell
wire, and thus brought out the servant key
in hand, who had let her in. When the girl
saw her, she, in sharp voice, said "Get
back to the parlor wild ye; what are yes do
ing here 2" II only came to speak to my
brother who is waiting outside )" said the
young girl, with rare presence of mind; and
with great quickness she snatched the key,
placed it in the lock, and opening the door
ran speedily down the steps and out into the
street, and scarcely lessened her speed until
she came up with police officer, to whom
she told her story, and obtained a promise
that he would keep his eye on the house into
which she had been entrapped, and see that
no other young women entered therein.
Now. the girl thus escaping from we'll
known den of intamy was, city girl, sharp
and world-wise; had she been coantry lass,
innocent and ignorant, the adventure might
have had different termination, and an
other recruit would have probably been
added to the great army OF fallen women,
many of whom have been shared to their
OWN ruin.-Phszadelp:ia Sunday Da0n.

Mr.. JOSEPH ARCH, who is soon to travel
through our country, has signalized himself
in England as the champion of farm labor
ers. He has attempted. and not without sue
cess, to rouse them from apathy and to secure
for them an advance on the miserable wages
for which they have mostly worked. He has
been sanguine that they would do still better
in the future, but we are told that be has now
changed his opinion. About all has been ac-
complished in their behalf that can be ex-
pected in an old and over crowded land, and
he now approves Of the emigration which
heretofore he had discouraged. When he
sees the abundance of land that can be
bought for almost nothing in America, his
new views are very likely to be confirmed
and strengthened. His travels will be of
benefit to himself and the thousands whom
he can influence

| strange ascendency gained over him by his un-
known visitor, his habitual effrontery failed
him, and for the first time in his life he dared
not break silence
An hour passed. Then hasty, Joyous steps
were heard. and Antonio appeared, bearing
| IN his hand bag and letter. The bag con-
tanned six hundred pistoles, and the letter
was addressed to the artist, and prayed him
to honor the sender with visit
''Take these coins and weigh them," said
the unknown, as he threw the bag towards
Gianettin.
Antonio Barbarigo stood before his bene-
factor, pale, and trembling with Joy.
Zone favor more," he said. 'Who are
your"
''What does it Matter?"
"What does it matter say you?" cried the
gOndOlier; ''much-much to me! Tell me
your name, signor, that may love and honor
it to the last moment of my life"
''Men call me Michael Angelo"
"1t is my turn now," he said, ito ask you
favor. 1t is to permit me to perpetuate on
canvas the lovely features of Maria
The girl approached, she conld not speak,
but she clasped the painters hand and raised
it to her lips. A tear fell on it, and Michael
Angelo, as he drew it back, turned away to
conceal his own emotions.
Twenty years passed on and found Antonio,
the once humble gondolier, the happy hus-
band of Maria, and General of the Venetian
Republic. Yet his brilliant position never
rendered him unmindful of his early life, and
he heartfelt gratitude, as well as that of his
wife, accompanied Michael Angelo Buona-
rotti to the end of his days.
AS to the crayen sketch of the miser's hand
it was taken from Italy by a soldier in Ma
poleon's army, and placed in the Louvre.
During the invasion of 1914, it was unfortun-
ately lost and so far as can be ascertained,
has never since been recovered. The story
of its production, however. still fingers
amongst the traditions of Venice.

ton 0f the L1pS77 as Elements OF M ar
From the New York Tribune
The Court of Appeals has just affirmed the
decision of the Brooklyn City Court in the
case of Homan vs.. Earle. The story of the
case is the following: A few months ago
Miss Roxelana Heman brought suit in our
heighboring city for breach of promise against
MI. Alexander Earle, prosperous merchant
Mr.. Earle imagined that before Roxelana
could gain in her case she must make the
promise appear. He denied it, and rested
camly, "just like man, upon the law and
logic of the matter. Miss Homan admitted
there was no promise, verbal or written, but
founded her claim upon the fact that Earle
had frequently kissed her. While the un-
his easy escape, his heart within him was
turned to stone by the inconceivable words
from the bench, spoken by Judge Nelson,
with measured accents and slowly Tapping
ears. He charged that no words were neces-
sary to constitute an engagement. 1.-The
CLEAN of the eye and the con junction of the
lips," said this light of jurisprudence, ARE
Overtures, when they become frequent and
protracted." The jury, always eager to do
thing which shall be at once idiotic and gal
liant, gave Roxelana $15. 900 for the wear and
tear of her lips and affections.
OF course the case was appealed, and the
higher tribunal has promptly confirmed the
decision of the court below. 1t is, therefore,
the law at this hour in the State of New York
that if bachelor kisses spinistcr, said
spinister may rightfully claim his hand or his
goods. In cases where shyness or lack of
opportunity may have prevented actual oscu-
lation, the young lady has still another string
to her beau; if she can show that he has ever
'shined his eye" in her direction, he is her
lawful spoil, according to Judge Nelson.
There is positively no protection for a bach
elor except nose-bags and blind-bridles, and
the ability to prove that he has never left
them off. To this extent the future at least
is secure. But how many bachelors can
wake up in the night and soothe their con-
sciences with the reflection that, like Sir
Gaiahad, ''they never felt the skill of love,
or maiden's hand in theirs?" If any such
there be, sweet must be his sleep; but if his
memory turks any record of early spoons,
how narrowing must be the thought that he
is the promised spouse of every girl he has
idly saluted. There are young men to-day
universally beloved and respected, the Gym
osures of Sunday schools and the delight of
evangelical tea-parties, who in the clear vis-
ion of Judge Nelson are no better than
Priam, King of Troy, or Brigham, Patriarch
of Salt Lake.
The practical results of this momentous
decision are appalling. No youth who values
his liberty will hereafter suffer himself to be
kissed except by lady who can show her
marriage certificate, and bring proof that
her husband is living. With this exception,
this soothing and humanizing amusement
must be confined to the domestic circle. aud
the young man Of the future will be ''doomed
mere sisterly salutes to feel, insipid things,
like sandwiches of veal"
