On one of the delightful days last
week O young lady well known in the
exclusive first circles OF San Francisco
and elegance of ccomplishments, was
driven around to make q congratulatory
call upon married lady who was hap
pily conyalescent from that occasional
sacred event in the lives of welded Ia
dies, which, far from being sickness. Is
the perfect elimination OF their health.
She was shown into the parlor, and for
the few minutes required to arrange Tor
her reception In the room where mother
and child were doing as well as could
be expected, was left with no other to
heir to the house, Master Charles, then
in his fourth year. But Charles was
equal to the situation, and promises to
grow up into an ornament OF society
that will never be abashed by beauty,

around to assure herself that there was

"No, Charlie, dear, I have not"
sand did 90 never have a baby ?"
I'm spite OF the youth of her interlocu-
tor, her handsome eyes dropped before
his ingenious gaze, and her pretty face

this O beautiful day."
"And amt 90 never doin to have no
baby ?" persisted Charlie, declining to

AOne for 90, and'--
That young lady seized that little boy
by his two shoulders, and, leaning over

with an impressiveness lent by sudden
terror:
See here, Charlie; listen to me. I
don't want any baby yet, and IL you
