Love in a Printing Office.

One day little blue-eyed, saucy-look-
ing creature Of sixteen summers, named
Minnie, expressed a desire to visit a
printing Office. Cad ! thought I, what a

Well, Minnie came to the Office, and
explained to her the use of the various
implements of the black art-the press,

boxes Of 4. b. C's l took an opportu-
nifty to snatch her pretty little hand and
she drew it back, knocking stickfull of

my arms around he. waist, and in q

little witch bore it Ike a martyr--she
never screamed once but as l raised my

cope. Somewhat nett!ed, and my cheeks
smarting with pain, l again seized her
waist, saying, "if you don't like it Just
take back the kiss" as she ierked her
self from my arms, her foot struck the

galley Of editorial was sprinkled on the
floor, and IN heg efforts to reach the door

hands stuck up to her elbow in the ink
keg. She slowly drew It forth from the
ink keg, dripping with ink, and asked
me what use | made Of the tar. To nv
surprise she seemed rather pleased than
angry-but there was a lurking devil in
her eye, that told ne there was mischief

An Unabridged Episode.


Now, 1 don't suppose you know it
though in. fact it's really true that [
love a rural maiden, and her name is
Katie Drew. She's a happy, joyous crea-
ture, and love her for herself: for the
PLAIN and modest graces of the winning
little elf
Well, upon a summer ev'ning, in the
rosy month of June, Kate and I went out
a-walking. meath the bright and silvry
moon. Right before US flowed a brook
let, just beyond messy ridge, and a
narrow piece of timber served a suBsti-
tute for bride.
Shall we cross it ?" said my Katie
Yes, my darling, if you wish" Then
I thought I heard giggle, but supposed
It was a fish 7 had
stepped upon the timber, and I clearly
felt it shake; but 1 must brave all dan
ger for my own dear Katies sake.
Now, the stream was quite a deep one
and broad one, too, at that; yet, I'd
often crossed upon it as nimbIy as a cat
I knew not how it happened-though
the fact was mighty fair-I had tumbled
from the crossing held suspended in the
air
Kate had grasped me by my coattails
and she held on for dear life; while she
rent the air with screeches, did my fu-
ture little ,wife. But, alas for human
efforts AS the log began to shake, darI-
ing Katie lost her balance though a
bath she would not take.
She had fallen over backwards and,
condemn me for fool if she did mt
grasp those coat-tails like a stubborn
Southern mule
Law IL wiggled and twisted, and I
begged her to let goi but she only
screeched the louder, crying, "'help oh,
murder oh r.
There we hung above the water, (Ka-
ties voice was growing hoarse) just like
pair of saddle-bags upon trav'ler's s
horse.
And, delighting in our trouble, there
stood Katie's brother jim, never off FIRING
to relieve US, though we loudly called on
| him.
But the end was surely coming; and
the next thing that l knew, I stood
waist-deep in the water, and my Katie
was there, too.
%;But the sequel is as plain as the nose
upon ones face Jim, of course, disclosed
the secret Kate and I were in disgrace
Now, I don't suppose you know it,
though, indeed, it's really true, that
love my Katie darling, and she loves
me muchly, too

wearing out Ii chored around livery

always ragged, and while no one was

he was restored to consciousness he star

I'll BE darned if haint going to die =
No one ever stopped to think whether
Uncle Heb was ever gQirg to die. 1t
was the general impression among his
acquaintauces that he would live along
for three or four hundred years.
How do you feel + they asked.
Kinder tremblY and weak he replied.

trouble; tend right TO business as usual

The men imagined that it was a mere
weakness which would soon pass off,
and one of them sat down near him while
the others retired to 90 about their bust

howled around the house. 1T don {

hacks and a brass band just as lief 20

course. 1 should like to read the papers
tomorrow and see what they say of me,

The old man was very pale, and he
seemed to be suffering. and the watcher
was anxious to do something.
