A Cape May Scene

This touching incident occur ed recently at Cape May By tight squeezing our fat lady got into a bathing robe that was req
 dy to burst at every step. Little husband girded about his body a
 Woolen garment that fitted like a shirt on a kill-deer. Down they go bold as couple of whales to the water, but just at the oceans edge Puny suddenly hauIted, looked with an awe on the furious billlOws, and then into the face of his determined wife. On her cOuntenance were the words "Come on." On his trembling lips shivered the sounds. "Oh. moi" The small specimen of di- minutive husbandry feared to risk his limited portion of flesh and bones in the flashing foam. "You shall go in," said the fat woman. "I will not" said skin ney, at the same time making frantic efforts to tear away; down he goes in the sand scratching worse than a Kilkenny cat. Down drops the big woman on terrified bones. The sand flew, ,.legs kick ed, man screamed; yet, in spite off all, the mammoth wife gathered her hundred pounds of furious sweetness in her arms, walked cOmplacently into the biggest breakers, and kersouse she land. ed him headfOremost into the sea, and as he popped up tn the -gr face, half strangled, she pressed him to Ter bosom saying: ''NOw, honey, that is what y)u came ali the way from Wilmington toI enjoy"

How the Sexes Go to Bed.

The young girl trips gaily up to her chamber, and with the eau tious timidity peculiar to her sex, first locks the doors and arranges the window curtains, so that by no possible chance a passer-by or a belated nocturnal Wanderer, from the pavement can catch glimpse Of her budding beauty when en dtstG6iLe. This task completed she turns on the gas 10 it's full, and institutes a general search throughout the apartment, that she may be sure it does not con- contain a horrible bugbear," or a desperate ruffian." in big whiskers and crisp black hair. Carefully with her delicate lit tie fingers, she lifts the bed val ance, peers into places where even Tom Thumb could not squeeze his dim inutive corpora tion, and takes 9 cursory peep into the half emptied trunk, not forgetting to glance nervously under the sofa, the space between which and the floor is not sufIi- cient to contain the ghost of Gal vii Edson, much less an ordinary r6bber. Having ascertained that she IS really alone, she leisurely proceeds to divest her fair form of
 tne SIX and linen convention alities of society"
 First she relieves her glossy hair of the pins and combs Which enthrall it, then "does it upU more compactly. Then comes oil the little collar, and the light Vapory cloud of lace she calls 1n- 3ersieeves, which all the day nave been elapsed around her white, plump arms, by a coupIe of lastics. Next, the love of a spring silk dress is unfastenad in front. The sundry waist strings and button straps are loosed, and 10 what @ collapse like Lowe,s big haloon. She stands like Sat urn, he center of rings. There they lie upon the soft carpet partly covered by the linen un. derhxings and overfiixing, with no more expression in them than chere is in the bare floor beneath the carpet Sits she now upon me edge Of the snowy bed, and oeslns the unlacing of gaiters, and tne disorbilg of those fair swell Ing limbs of the stockings.

THE TASTEFUL LOVER.

An, we'll John came tonight and stood
 For fHl an hour beside the bars; And we two watched, between the trees,
 The glimmer Of the moon and stars. John acted very strange. 1 think
 wish l knew the reason why; I really thought be meant to say
 Something tonight beside good bye; Johns coming here quite often now;
 I'm sure l don't know why he should Although my sister Jennie says
 It's talked about the neighborhood That be is making love to NE
 The strangest thikg 1 ever heard: For if it's true, how queer it is
 That John has never sad word Al. well I shouldn't care so much
 If John himself had told me so For then he might have said it all.
 Upon hls own account, yc- suuH Jqt he's 20 baahfu l believe
 He C ueger- dare D speak out pIaln {. s0ps he'A uuster -eursge up.
 knG tTy # wbeH he comes again ] cannot be that 'ln to,blame-
 T'm sure ! Ise helped him all I could ] re always met 1in at the bars
 --a talked aS any woman would That had lover whom she liked.
 And waited. with her heart aglow, For him to break the object first.
 And then how quick she'd let him know! But John. be keeps a-coming still.
 Just as he has for twelve months past {; I've thought sometimes it looked as though I'd have to speak myself, at last, I'm bound that be shall know the truth, And now, resolved, cannot wait For him to find it out himself;
 And so, next time, I'll try my fate.

fereOnS ueoIrouo Ui attaining to a ripe old age should emigrate to Vermont, where, if all the stories told about venerable inhabitants be true, old people can well nigh find immortality within it's bor- ders. Among the authenticated cases of longevity, combined with bodily activity, are the follow ing: Hannah Brown. of Bethel, aged 91, who picks hops with the alacrity of youth; Mas. Justus Hyatt, aged 82, who, after a six mile walk few days ago, wanted to repeat the distance the same morning. Vershire boasts of Mrs. Lucy worth, who is 91 years of age, and who spins twenty knots a day all the year round, knitting in addition large nit ten every other day. Royalston has a man whose name is Wild, and they call Esquire" who al- though upwards of eighty. carries on his farm, works hard, eats and sleeps well, and feels just as we'll as every he did.
