In one of the suburbs of Boston lady
was passing from the depot through a
piece of woodland to her home the other
day. Suddenly a tramp sprang from
the bushes, and seizing her wrist, de-
manded her watch and money. The
lady replied, "Let me alone, and you
shall have my money" This the fellow
did, but still menaced her with heavy
walking-stick. The lady then deliber-
ately unfastened her handbag, quick
as a flash took out a revolver, and
springing back several PAGES, leveled it
at the head of the villain. The fellow
was so astOnished that he in turn sprang
back, and throwing up his hands, cried,
'Don't shootW and in a moment after
turned about, dashed into the bushes,
and disappeared. The lady had received
instruction in the use of the weapon
from her husband, and was skillful.
When told that she ought to have
brought the fellow down, she replied,
"YOu wouldn't have me shoot him in
the back, while running, would you p"

A mysterious stranger, who had made
mistake as to the quantity of wine
that was necessary for him the other
day, made his way into the dining
room of an uptown club, and ordered a
dozen of oysters, steak, and a bottle
of Sauterne. The waiter, not knowing
the intruder, was about to execute the
order, when two or three members of
the club compared notes, and, as no.
body knew him, came to the conclu-
sion that he was not member. There
upon the waiter was sent to demand
whether he was one.

spOnded the mysterious stranger. "pve
ordered a steak and some oysters and a
bottle of Sauterne, aud mean to have

"Beg your PARDON" deferentially re-
piled the waiter, "but this is a club, and
you have no right of entrance till you
are elected"
"Well, them" roared the intruder,
"eleet mer
The members laughed at this good
joke, and the waiter looked uncomfOrt-
able, but he thereupon urged, "Beg par
don, sir; you must become a member
in the ordidary way before I can serve
you, as you have not been introduced;
you must be proposed and balIoted for. ;"
"Well, then," shouted the invader,

The end of the controversy was that

A Bachelors Defense.

Bachelors are styled by married men,
who have put their foot into it, as only
half-perfected beings-cheerless vaga-
bonds, but half a pair of scissors, and
many other titles are given them; while
on the other hand they extOl their state
as one of such perfect bliss that a change
from earth TO heaven would be some
what of doubtful good.
If they are so happy, why don't they
enjoy their happiness, and hold their
tongues about it? What do half the
men get married for? Simply that they
may have somebody to darn their stock
ings, sew buttons on their shirts, and
trOt their babies-that they may have
somebody, as a married man once said,
'to pull off their boots when they are a
little balmy."
These fellows are always talking Of
the loneliness of bachelors. Loneliness
indeed! Who is petted to death by ladies
with marriageable daughters ?-invited
to tea and to evening parties, and told
to drop in just when it is convenient {?
The bachelor. Who lives in clover all
his days, and when he dies has flowers
strewn on his grave by the girls who
couldn't entrap him? The bachelor
Who strews flowers on the married
mans grave? His widow? Not bit of
it; she pulls down the tombstone that a
six-weeks' grief has set 10 in her heart,
and goes and gets married again, she
does.
Who goes to bed early because time
hangs heavily on his hands? The mar
ried man. Who gets a scOlding for
picking out the softest part of the bed,
and for waking up the baby when he
turns out in the morning? The married
man. Who has wood to split, house
hunting, and marketing to do, the
young ones to wash, and the lazy ser
wants to look after? The married man.
Who is taken up for whipping his wife ?
The married man. Who gets divorced ?
The married man. Finally, who has
got the Scriptures on his side? The
bachelor. st. Paul knew what he was
talking about-"He that marries does
well; but he that marries not does
better"
