The Result of a Game of Cards.

The Litchfield, KY, Journal says "a
gentleman and his wife who reside in this
went short time since to visit a neighbor,
with intention to stay all night. After sup
per the host proposed game of cards to
his guest, to which the latter assented,
and they sat down to play. The wife of
the visitor being religiously inclined, raised
remonstrance against the game, but this
was disregarded by her husband. She then
became very much excited, and threatened
to burn the cards if they continued to play.
At last her husband turned to her and said ;
81 guess I'm wearing the brooches now,
and if you don't want to see me play and
can't behave yourself, just get your bon
net aud go home at once" She took him
at his word, and all that night her lonely
pillow was wet with tears of bitter an
guish, called forth by the knowledge of
her husbands wickedness.
Next morning the husband, who in the
meantime had been nursing his wrath,
went home and told his wife that she had
disgraced him, and now she could pack
her traps and leave his bed and board for
ever. Remonstrance was in vain, and she
sorrowfully departed. That night the hus-
band retired to his widowed bed-to think,
not to sleep. Visions of past happiness
and regret for his hasty expulsion of his
companion passed through his mind. Pres
emily he heard gentle tap at the door,
"Come in" said he; the door opened, and
his wife stood upon the threshold. "Bet-
sey," said he, ''what are doing out this
time O night "Oh, nothing" said She
'Made me some Coffee" said he. That
she proceeded TO do, with more than usual
alacrity, and nothing more was said OF their
disagreement.
Now deck of cards adorns the mantel-
piece in their home, and every night after
the supper dishes are cleared away that hus-
band and wife sit down to cheerful game
of "old sledge."

Beating the BARRIERS.

The Chicago Times tells the story A
man who had been nearly talked to death
by loquacious BARRIERS went into shop the
other day which he had never patronized
before, and handed one of the artists a card
bearing these words, "Give me an easy
shave" The barber motioned him to a
chair, and then, turning round, wlnked at
his felow-laborers, and said: "Heres a
deaf and dumb un, boys; wants an easy
shave" "Well. if you cash him he can't
talk back" replied one, who was loeling in
his chair, waiting for "next." "No, you
bet he can't" returned the first. "An easy
shave be bowed Why, he's got bristes
on hin. like Texas boar, and his skin
looks tougher than canal mules" The
boys laughed, and the operator, who in the
meantime had lathered the mans face, in
dulged in further comments as he urged
the razor over the facial territory before
him. "What nose that is" said he. eff

"Do you want us to help hold his nose

asked another of the idle razor-wielders.
"Don't know but will want little help"
"Be careful and don't drop your razor down
his ear, or you'll lose it," admonished
another. "What dirty head he's got"
observed Johnny, as he ran his fingers
through the mans hair. 81 say, some OF
you fellows write card, and ask him if
he don't want shampoo" The card was
written and presented to the man, who
shook his head at it, and the job being fin
shed he rose from the chair. "1t's all
