Punetuality Of Martha washington.

Miss Peale, the daughter of James
Peale, tells this story of the punctuality
Of Martha Washington My father had
an engagement to paint miniature of
Mrs. Washington in Philadelphia, the
general being then out of town. He was
obliged to go to her house, and the ap-
pointment for first sitting was ar
ranged for seven o'clock in the morning.
My father arrived at the house, and
taking out his watch he found he was
exactly on time. The thought then
struck him that possibly it might be to
early to disturb a lady, and he decided
to give ten minutes grace before knock
ing at the door. He accordingly walked
the pavement, and at the end of ten
minutes pulled out his watch and rang
the bell. He was ushered into the
parlor, and Mrs. Washington accosted
him, drew out his watch, and said she
had given her orders for the day, had
heard her daughter take her lessons on
the harpsichord, and had read all the
morning papers, and after oil this had
been waiting for him tep minutes.

What the Miscroscope Reveals.

Mold is forest OF beautiful trees,
with the branches, leaves and fruit.
Butterflies are fully feathered.
.Hairs are hollow tubes. asA
The surface of our bodies is covered
with scales like fish; single grain
of sand would cover one hundred and
fifty of these scales, and yet q scale
covers five hundred pores. Through
these narrow openings the perspiration
forces itself like water through sieve.
Each drop Of stagnant water contains
q world of living creatures, swimming
with as much liberty as whales in the
sea.
Each leaf has colony of insects graz

Fashion Notes.

Point-lace mittens are worn by brides.
Cloaks are made almost entirely of
figured cloths.
A new Paris bonnet is called the
"Cing- Mars"
Cleft halo brims are among the
novelties in bonnets.
Garlands of humming-birds adorn the
most stylish hats.
Slate, gray, and orange are fashion
able combinations of color.
Ladies' tort oise shell portemonaies
have tiny watch in the top.
The new "laminee." fringe is of
watered silk, and is very elegant.
Black Swedish gloves of undressed kid
are popular for demi-toilet.
Gilded porcupine quills are among
novel trimmings for round hats.
Low, square-necked princess dresses
are the most stylish for evening wear.
The once perishable black Grape is
now reinished and made waterproof.
Light fluffy feathers held by gold
flower or leaf, are worn in the hair for
evening.
Side draperies are made of large box,
or Vatican pleat, on stylish costumes.
Some of the handsomest imported
bonnets are composed entirely of large
damask roses.
A new material for trimming is the
"tissue plume" and may be used in a
variety of ways.
Evening fans are of soft white
feathers with lilies of the valley, and
tiny rosebuds nesting in the dawn.
The latest novelty in fans, is to have
the feather tops intermixed with sprays
of flowers, such as pansies and elder
flowers.

Looking For Her Husband.

A well-dressed prisoner, about twenty
years of age, clad in neat gray over
coat, fashionable trousers, @ Byron
collar and a black silk cravat, stood
before the bar Of the Fifty seventh
street police court.
"Well, young man," said Justice
Wandell kindly, for, as he said after
wards, he was rather prepossessed by the
looks of the boy, "what are you here
forf"
The officer who had the prisoner in
charge turned red, fumbled awkwardly
with the greasy Bible, which he had Just
kissed, and then said: Yer honor,
she aint boy, he's woman; that is,
sir, it's woman with mems clothes on. "
Justice Wandell looded over his gold.

figure, with smooth round face, closely

prisoner in pleasant voice. "I came
to the city sir, from Paterson, N. j., to
look for my husband, who has deserted
me and my two children. Don't You

"But I have no other, sir"
"Well, well, well," said the court,
"of course I mean as soon as you can.

"Thank you, sir" said the prisoner,

A Huge Stick.

The Gold Hill (Nev. NeDs says Prob
ably the largest stick of timber ever
brought to the Comstock was recently
received at the new Yellow Jacket works,
east of the second railroad tunnel. 1t is
to be used as chord for the pump-bob,
and its dimensions are thirty-eight by
forty-eight inches, by forty-three feet in
length. The weight is 81, 900 pounds,
and the freight from San Francisco
amounted to $416.70. Two cars were
required to transport this stick, and it
cost twenty dollars to load it, The
timber came from Oregon, and cost over
5000 delivered in San Francisco. Good,
heavy material is being put into the
machinery at the new works OF the
Yellow jacket Mining Company, and IL
will stand the strain for years to come.

Address TO Winter.
BY GUY II. AVERY.


Ha here you come to make us wheeze;
/ see your fingers on the trees,
And heard your equinoctial sneeze
Last Monday evening
You'll soon be here to NIP my toes,
And paint my cheeks with sunset glows,
And fresco this old chin and nose
With blue and purple
l hear you've been-yOu rowing fellow =
Among the Polynesians yellow,
And soaring with your fearful below
The Australasians.
You're getting rough l fear you pass
Your time too much with Boreas
And that star-mantled Gypsy lass,
The dark-eyed Solstice.
Old friend, together many year
We've iourneyed on through foul and clear
So now, good comrade, give an ear
To my petition
Soften thy cruel northern blows;
In cold Arcturus leave thy SHOWS;
pray thee gently come to those
Who have no shelter.
Oh ! touch them kindly kindly deal
With those who most thy rigors feel;
In tattered legions here they kneel,
And crave thy mercy.
The times are hard, and work there's none;
oh, give them oft CLEAN Of sun
Remind them Of that gentle One
Who loved the lowly.
Bluster around the rich mans door;
Make him unlock his golden store,
Each year increasing more and more
His deeds Of kinuness.
Roar round the miser till he quakes;
Nip him and strip him till he shakes;
Freeze and squeeze him till he makes
A big donation.
Let those we love, though they abide
Far from us now, come to our side
Happy and well at Christmastide,
And we will bless thee

Recovered Through a Dream.

A lady in San Francisco recently
had a visit from her sister, who was rich
and wore diamonds. While the guest
was preparing to go out one morning she
laid on the bureau of her room a purse
containing a splendid diamond pin and a
good deal of gold, and, when she had
tied her bonnet-strings in an adjoining
room, looked for the purse and could not
find it. The two ladies, assisted by a
servant, made thorough search, swept
the house, moved the furniture, and
rummaged in every direction, without
avail. At midnight the lady Of the
house was awakened by the entrance of
her sister, who was acting in the most
singular manner and asking for writing
materials. A pencil was given to her,
and she Immediately covered a sheet Of
paper with scrawls which were hardly
decipherable. She soon lapsed into her
normal condition, and the two ladies set
to work to decipher the writing. One
sentence was repeated several times. It
was this, "She has hid it under the
stool. They decided that "she meant
the servant, and, proceeding to her door.
they knocked for admittance. The girl
the door, and was told that she
must dress and assist them in a further
search for the pin. At the foot of the
bed stood a covered stool, the cover
reaching to the floor. Highly excited,
the ladies rushed to it, tipped it over,
and there lay the lost purse. The SER
want turned, ran down stairs, unlocked
door, and rushed into the street. The
lady who had the dream and wrote the
blind hand is not Spiritualist She is
a Presbyterian.
