 "Well, out with it, Jennie. What have you been doing?"
 "You know that Frank Kennedy, Nell"
 .That soft, simpering fellow that always tells you how charming you look?'
 "Exactlv. This morning l saw him coming, and made up my mind to take him down. l put my dia- mond broach in chair, pin up wards, and asked him to sit down"

 "He jumped up and yelled: oh, my What's the troubleT l asked Nothing in particular, only I thought of an engagement at this very moment; you must excnse me. And of he went; and, would you believe it, Nell, the broach was sticking to him."
 That was awful, Jennie" ," and the two girls giegled together for five minutes. Nell broke the spell by demanding: What next|
 Why, you see, l was talking with that young sprig of a clergyman, the Rev. Tom Parsons. We had nearly talked each other to death, when, as luok wonld have it, he made some remark about mosquitoes. was on my native heath at once, and began to tell him of my experience al Rockaway.

NOTICES or rnE rREss.

The veteran Magazine, which long ago outgrew it's original tite of the New Monthly Magazine, has not in the least abated the popularity 1t won at the outset, but has added to it in many ways, and has kept fairly abreast of the times, thanks to the enterprise of the publishers and the tact and wisdom of its editors. For whatever is best and most readable in the literature Of travel, discovery, and fiction, the average read- CT of to-day looks to Harper's Nigga zine, just as expectantly as did the reader of quarter of century ago :; there is the same admirable variety of contents and same freshness and sug- gestiveness in it's editorial departments now as then.-Boston Journal.
