Ancient Love Stories.

Most people think that the story
paper, as many of the nawkish and
sense.curdling weeklics are named,
is of modern invention. But it is
very old, on the contrary, fur older
than the newspaper proper, which
dates from the fifteenth century,
The Acta Diurna, or the Aeta Publica,
of ancient Rome, the first approach
to anything like d newspaper Of
which we have any record, contain
ed, in addition to an enumeration Of
births, deaths and marriages, edicts
of magistrates, reports of trials, and
accounts of foreign wars, love tales Of
a very warm and gushing character
They were not quite so bad as those
we have nowadays (they contained
moro nature, though less morality, q
theng unknown IN our sense, until q
century or so since), and they were
read with avidity by all the Roman
women who could read at all. The
Aeta were prepared under the direct
ion of Censors, who were chiefly con.
earned with tho politjcs-noL the
ethics-of the sheet They were not
distributed as may be inferred but
were posted in some public place and
read by those sufficiently interested
in current news to seek them. Wo.
men devourod the amatory chroni.
cles and the marriage announce
mcnts, very much as they do now
Indeed the women Of ancient Rome
and modern America have not chang
ed materially,-Boaon Herald.

APraclical sweetheart.

A nice young man employed in
the Kansas Pacific Office, resolst I'd the
other day to present his beloved girl
with nice pair of shoes. He ac-
cordingly procured her measure
and went into one Of the fash
ionable stores on Main street and
purchased a 81 pair Of shoes. In or
der to make the presentappear more
valuable he marked s5upon the soles
of the shoes, and at his request the
clerk put a 'receipted bill for IS into
one of the shoes. The presentation
was made, and the lovers were hap
py, as lovers should be, But mark
the sequel. The gin examined the
shoes in the daylight and was not
satisfied. She was convinced that
her lover had been cheated in the
purchase of such a pair of shoes at
that price. She decided to 60 and
change the shoes and obtain better
bargain, Yesterday she appearcdin
the store and selected apair of shoes,
price $3.50, and politely requested
the clerk TO take back the shoes for
which she said her lover had paid IS.
The receipted bill was produced in
proof, and the boot man found it i'm
possible to go "behind the returns"
The smart girl took her $3.50 pair of
shoes and obtained s150 in money,
add went homo happy and satisfied.
The boot seller sent a bill of SO to the
young man, who promptly paid the
difference, but he thinks that girl a
little too smart for him.

Donleatie InEeIicity.

Yesterday noon a commotion was
noticed in a farmers wagonOn Wood
ward avenue, near Davenport street,
and a citizen advanced to discover
that the farmer and his wife were
having a regular old-fashioned do
mestic fight in the bottom ofthe wag-
on while the horses we're eating grass
over the curb stones,
"Here-what's TO payS" shouted
the citizen as he climbed upon the
wheel.
"Fightina" gaspcd the woman,
whose head was buried in the straw,
The farmer made no reply. His
head was under the seat, one legover
the wagon box, and he was clawing
the air like a man whoselungS want
ed more air.
"l should think you'd waittill you
get outside the city to engage in such
disgraceful conduct" continued the
citizen,
81 know we orter, replied the wo-
man as she sat up, "but when l found
six plugs of tobacco, a new dime nov

pocket, and remembered how l wait

spot. couldn't waita minute, then,
mister, but now if you'll check up
that nigh horse I'll drive along and
renew the combat beyond the toll

The citizen complied, and she was
seated across her husbands knees as
she shook the lines and shouted: "Git
up."-Detroa Free Press.
