"Three Fingers"

"John," called little Mrs. Pearson
after her husband as he left home IN
the morning, ''stop at French's and
bring me three fingers of that new
moyenage lace, and spool of white
silk" .s. -
John braced himself up, and repeat
ed the message: "Three-fingers-ot
milliOnage silk, and spool OF white
lace" then he saw car coming, ana
held up three fingers that he might not
forget the message while he hailed the
driver. As he took his seat he muir
INJURED absently, "Three fingers Of,
morning papers, bOy-millionage," and
he subsidized into the paper, while he
kept his fingers extended in the air. An
old lady who sat next to him saw his
lips move, and whispered to her daugh-
ter that, 'there was another Moody
convert" When the conductor came
around, John stared at him, and re-
peated, "Three fingers" etc. But the
conductor took him by the collar, and
tod him to pay his fare. At the office
the clerk asked him question about
the DAVIS business, but the only answer
he could get was ''Three fingers of in
voices;'' when he went to lunch, he
rushed into the first restaurant, and be-
ing past speech, could only hold up
three fingers, which the obliging young
man behind the counter at once pro-
ceeded to.pour out. When Johns wife
saw him next he was hatless and coat
less, sitting with vacant expression OF
countenance behind the bars of cell,
in the station, and a reporter had just
commenced to write, "Murderer arrest
ed Talks of nothing else than the
three fingers of his victim! Horrible
disclosures expected" The little
woman paid Johns fine, and took him
home, where he slept stupidity till the
next day, when he declared his coffee
must have been drugged. Mrs. John
says it's just what you might expect of
a mamie never has sense enough to
carry dry-goods message without los
ing his balance.

tailed description of the most notable

night at Rideau Hall About 900 invi-
tations had been issued, and there was
almost a full response. Nearly all the
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT of the Dominion

vorite character, and there were any
number of Senators and members OF
Parliament.
The costumes were unusually bril-
liant. 1t was estimated that their total
value was 100000. Their Excellen-
cies' staff and household represented
the Court of King James-Viscount
Claudeborg and Lady Helen Blackwood

Round the walls were. the Royal arms
and those of the Provinces of Canada,
any number of national flags, and a
profusion. of flowers and evergreens.
Most of the costumes were brought
from NeY York and Boston, not few
OF the most costly being prepared for
the occasion. 4 III a w EE'HItH& y
The supper was a recherche affair,

of $4,000.

Going to Heaven ON the Back 81 a stOrk.
tChina MALL

It seems that a young lady, an inhab-
liant of that city, who had the misfor-
tune to be left a widow while yet in her
teens, was urged by some injudicious
relatives TO enter again into the bonds
of wedlock. The thought thus suggest.
ed Of supplying the place Of her late
husband was SO repugnant to her feel
ings that, in order to escape from the
persecution OF her advisers, she deter
mined to ascend 10 heaven on the back
OF a stork," or, In other words, publicly
to commit suicide. Having arrived at
this determination, a day was fixed for
the ceremony. Early on the fatal morn
ing the lady, dressed as the Queen OF
Heaven, and surrounded by a large fol-
lowing OF admiring relatives and friends,
started from her late husbands house in
an open sedan chair for the scene OF her
self-infIcted death. BY the way she WIS.,
tied her parents, to bid them farewell,
and stopped occasionally en- route to
taste the viands which were placed at
intervals by the side Of the road, as Mt a
funeral. On arriving at an open space
at the back Of the Hai-chaon Temple,
she mounted on q scaffolding which had
been erected for the purpose, and, hav-
ing bowed to the vast crowd which had
assembled to witness the proceedings,
SIG cTleu Will " lOuu SOlSCs AACovCh
and earth! and my friends! am quite
satisfied to die in this manner" Having
said this, she stepped on to chair on
the platform, and thrust her head
through the moose Of red cord, which
hung suspended from cross beam
above her At the same moment red
cloth was placed over her head and face,
and then, without the least hesitation,
she jumped off the chair. Death was
almost Instantaneous, and she expired
without the least apparent struggle.
Unfortunately, the effects Of this young
lady's self-devotion did not end with her
life, for 50 deep an impression did her
conduct make on some boys who had
witnessed the spectacle, that they
amused themselves on the following
day by making believe to follow her ex-
ample. BY a misadventure, while one
of them was adjusting the rope round
his neck, his playmates ran of, and on
their return they found that he like
wise had assembled to heaven on the
back Of "a stork."
