His Recollection of II.

Now, Leander dear, want you to
be sure and not forget to bring those
few things when you come down to-
night" said young wife, just before
the kiss and "good by' at the Summer
hotel, in the morning, as the gentlemen
were starting for the city.
Certainly not, my love-"
" And this is the way the list ran:
l. Two yards of blue barege.
2. Three yards Hamburg edgings.
8. My new braid from the hat store.
4. Half dollars worth of nainsook.
5. Box pearl powder for my upper
drawer.
6. "Modern Minister from Loring's
Library.
Arriving in town, he forgot all about
the list till late in the afternoon, and
then couldn't find it in any of his pock-
cts; but hadn't he read it oyer, and
didn't he recollect it all Z? OF course he
did, and this is what he brought to his
expectant little wife,
l. Two heads of blue cabbage.
.. Two yards handsome netting (mos-
quito.)
3. Some blue braid.
4. Half dollars worth of canned
soup.
5. Box of sedleitz powder.
9. Loring said he hadn't got any such
book as The Mug and Canister" in the
library.
Exclamation on receiving the above:
90, Leander, Leander, you must
have been dining at that horrid club
again, or you couldn't have made such
q mistake 20

standing, the captain does not carry
sword.
Captain" he calls from the win
dow. Eli, captain; step up to my
room for moment will you ?"
The captain obeys promptly, borrows
sword from the officer of the guard,
the guard-room being at the foot of the
stairs, and presents himself to the old
colonel, in irreproachable manner.
The colonel is somewhat surprised to
see the sword in its place, and having to
invent some pretext for calling his
subordinate back, says with some con-
fusion:
81 beg your pardon, captain, but real
ly I've forgotten what wanted to speak
to you about. However, it can't have
been anything very important; it will
keep. Good morning."
The captain salutes, departs, returns
the sword to its owner, and is making
off across the barrack yard, when he
again comes within the range of the
colonel's vision.
The colonel rubs his eyes, stares, says
softly to himself:
How in thunder is this Dem it,
he hasn't sword to his waist.''
Then he calls aloud:
"Captain Ho,captain, one moment,
please"
The captain returns, borrows the
sword again, mounts the stairs and en-
ters the colonel's presence. His COM
manding officer stares at him intently !;
he has sword, he sees it, he hears it.
Captain" he stammers growing
very hot, "it's deuced ridiculous, you
know, but-hal ha! I'd just rcmem-
membered what wanted to say to you,
and now-ha ha its gone out of my
head again Funny, isn't it Ha ha |
Losing my memory. Never mind. I'll
think of it and write you. Good morn
ing"
The captain salutes, departs, returns
the sword to its owners and makes for
the gate. AS he crosses the barrack
yard, the colonel calls his wife to his
side and says:
See that officer out there 20
eyes"
Has he got sword on 2"
The colonel's wife adjusts her eye
glass upon him, scans him keenly and
says: : ..
" He hasn't the taste of sword"
The colonel says:
That's just where you fool your
self. He has !"

WEIGHING A SHOP GIRL.

ND you really fancy yourself in
IA love with this fair-haired little
shop girl ?"
Mr.. Meredith, tall, noble-featured
man of fifty, looking rather sadly at his
enthusiastic young nephew.
Fancy, uncle? That is hardly an
appropriate word to use. L am quite
certain of that fact"
"I consider you will think me very
poor judge of the human character, if L
tell you that 1 like her cousins demure
face best. Believe me, Harry, there is
more real stamina in Ruth Durr than in
her pretty cousin Rachel"
"There, sir" answered Harry, reso-
lutely, els where beg leave to differ
with you"
Well, my boy, you must choose for
yourself Remember, it is no question
of partner for waltz, or a pair of
bright eyes whose glitter is to amuse you
for one or two evenings. The woman
whom you now selet for your wife must
necessarily exert a more or less potent

81 know, sir" and Harry's mirthful
face became for the moment almost
grave.
That she earns her own living be-
hind the counter of fancy store-that
they both do, is no drawback in my
eyes. Independence and self-reliance are
to me cardinal virtues, and even though
your wife will be raised into an atmos-
phere of comparative wealth, a few les
sons taken beforehand in the impartial
school of worldly experience will be of
incalculable use to her."
Harry Meredith sat long that night,
before the snug bright fire in his snug
little bachelor apartment, musing over
his uncle's words.
He had met the two cousins, Rachel
and Ruth Durr at quiet little birthday
gathering at the house of friend, and
had instantaneously felt drawn towards
the elder one, elder by eighteen months.
She was beautiful blonde, while the
other was rather of the brunette type.
During the three months which had
followed upon his first introduction,
Harry Meredith had contrived to see the
cousins several times week, and, con-
isequently fell deep in love with the
golden-haired lassie even while he was
quite conscious of Ruth's deeper charac-
ter and stronger intellect.
Sometimes he was almost tempted to
waver in his allegiance toward the older,
and then betook himself with very un-
necessary sternness to task.
Tonight, however, he passed the
whole of the last few weeks in review
before his memory, and decided that in
action was the very worst policy in the
world. I
This suspense must be put an end
to- calculated our hero half aloud, and
then he smiled mischievously to him
self, as an idea came into his head.
I'm do it," he thought, biting his
Zip. "Of course it's merely for the fun

Where She was Fooled.

THE colonel, a rigid martinez, is sit
Il ting at the window of his room,
when looking out he sees captain
crossing the barrack yard towards the
gate. Looking at him closely, he is
shocked to observe that, the rules and
regulations to the contrary notwith-

Select Poetry.
" Man Proposes"

We parted one eve at the garden gate
When the dew was on the heather,
And promised my love to come back to her,
Ere the pleasant autum weather.
That we twain might wed
When the leaves were red,
And live and love together.
BUT ANOTHER MAN DIsPosEs.
l found my love at the garden gate,
Just where expected to find her,
And found, also, too awfully late
That her father was right behind her
And he gave me Z" "toot'
With government boot,
That shattered my day dreams, kinder.
