SUSAN WAS INsULTED.

Susan Smith, a rather good looking
colored girl, some weeks ago brought
Joseph Brown, a healthy and broad
shouldered negro, into the Flfty-seventh
Street Court, and the Judge decided
that the man would have to support
their colHred infant. Brown worked In
a laundry, and was released upon pro-
missing to supply the money. Yester'
day the pair were in court again
Jedge," she said, "that chile OF
his'n is a starvin', aud l asks that he

"The child ?"
"No sab, OF course not, but Mt

"She is right. Brown" said the
Court, I" why don't you pay her, after
giving her your promise?"
"Well, you see, sab, biz Is bad; !

dat woman what did"
"But," said the Court, ''you mus

" Y'oner," said Susan, A" he hasn',

Brown dived into the pockets of his
pants and showed a half dollar.
"Giye it to her." said the Judge.
Brown offered It to the woman, She
looked at it with unutterable disgus
and then struck Browns open hand
with her FIST, sending the coin flying In

SEPARATE REEDS.

1t was probably in view Of such bnrbar-
Gus contingency that latter civilization has
prescribed separate beds for married people.
The doctors prescribed this upon sanitary
grounds. They pssort that the coarser tenn
perament obsorbs the vitality Of the finer
or rather, to put It in more acceptable
phrase, the stronger absorbs that Of the
weaker, and therefore it is safer and better to
occupy separate couches, and indeed separate
chambers.
An emnet physician Of our city, having
q wide practice-Dr. D, who is a strong
advocate Of this sanitary mcasure-tells that
it is more readily accepted by the husband
than the wife. The latter has her suspic-
ions that this sanitary plea is founded on
something less and more acceptable and
moral than health. lie tells several good
stories in this connection. Among others
he relates the story of a Baldheaded Young
Mems Christian Assocationist, whose jcal-
Gus little wife was in falling health, and he,
the family physician, recommended separ-
ate couohes. 1t was somewhat difficult to
convince the female half of B. II. Y. MS c.
A., that il were better for her and il required
much medical works to convince the good
lady that tho proposed change was for her
benefit.
She agreed to the change at last, and some
time after the doctor was ssont for. lie found
the lady hysterical and in tears. She called
this good man, the family physician, vile
wretch. She asserted that under plea of
beneliting her health, he had been playing
into the hands of proAgatc and wicked
husband. The doctor protested and denied,
but all in vain.
"ComcJ here, you vile man." she cried.
The alarmed doctor accompanied her to
the husbands bed room, where she hastened
to turn down the clothes of the male martial
couch and exhibit to the amazed eyes of the
medical gentleman, the shovel, tongs and
poker of the Fireplace.
al put them there a week ago." she
screamed, "and they have never been dis
turbed. Now she cried, seizing the tall
doctor by the throat-and in trying to shake
him only shook herself" where docs he
slcep-say-yo know?'
There was no use of arguing such a case
as that in the defence. The doctor, since
then, when recommending this sanitary
measure, first looks about to sec whether a
fair female domestic makes one of the
family Washington Capital.

And she swept into the house like a
fair Fury.
When Olive came ln, a few minutes
afterwards, with the six pairs of scissors
all sharpened and FURNISHED up to a
scientific state of brilllancy, her sister
was lying on the sofa with ker face
turned towards the wall, and her eyes
resolutely closed.
"Oh, dear me-" said Olive. "1m
afraid she's in for one of her regular
sulking fits, that last twenty four hours

And she took advantage Of circum-
stances to pour out a goblet of ice. water
and offered it surreptitiously to the
swarthy italian, when she carried out
the silver quarter that he had so hardly
earned.
lie bowed low, once more after the
Oriental fashion, drank 1t eagerly, and
astonished Olive very much by raising
her hand to his lips, as he uttered the
words, "Buon glomo signorinal" and
departed.

Olive, turning very rosy.
"It's lucky for you that Maude didn't

Olive blushing deeper than ever.
