A Very Cautious Lover.

IN THE big crowd of excursionists sit
Il ting on the City Hall steps for rest,
the other day, was a young man of ex-
cellent length of legs, and girl with
sixteen auburn curls hanging down
around her head. They had scarcely
settled themselves and locked fingers
when she cautiously observed:
" 1 'spose they have soda-wate in this
town p'
&C 'spose," he replied, "but the last
thing afore we started promised your
mother not to let you drink any soda
water. It's the worst thing in the world
to bring on consumption"
She was quiet for moment, and then,
pointing to the left, remarked:
"I see that Sarah is eating peanuts.-
1 'spose they have peanuts in this
town?''
"Well, yes, but your mother caution
ed me the last thing not to buy any pea
nuts for you. The Queen of Holland was
choked to death in that way"
Pretty soon a boy came along with
some fruit, and the young woman felt
obliged to say:
"Them apples and pears look awful
NICE"
eyes, they do" replied the prudent
lover, " but 1 promised your mother, at
the depot, not to buy any fruit for you.
Them apples look nice, but if you git the
tooth-ache started on you, then the whole
afternoon is busted"
The young man had just commenced
to take comfort again, when she inno-
Gently remarked
When came up here last summer
with Jim, he bought moren two pounds
of candy.,'
Yes, and what was the result p'' he
demanded. "You fell down cellar that
very week, and didn't Jim have to light
out last winter for bustin' in the school
house door p''
She had got down to water, and with
considerable sarcasm in her voice she
inquired:
g can have drink of water, can't
II Mother didn't say anything against
that did she ?''
Wall, no, not exactly" he slowly
replied :" but she gin. me an appealing
look as the cars moved off - same as to
say that it ought to be kind o. warmish
water, if any You sot here and I'll
borrow dipper somewhere"
" She " sot," and it was all of an hour
and half before he again succeeded in
getting his arm around her.

strangers to examine It she paid no at
tention TO the forwardness Of the stranger
until she felt the click Of pair of scis-
sors, and, turning around, she saw q
man disappear in the crowd with her
hair, which he had cut close to the head.
The little creature ran home crying, and
informed her parents of what had hap
pened, but nothing of the dastsrdly
coward who robbed the child of her
beautiful tresses has yet been heard. 1t
is good thing for him that the enraged
father has not seen him.

The Poor Boys Chances.

THE following is sermon that
i should be read by all men, and is
an answer to the final logic that the
poor man or boy has no chance to do
better. An Illinois orator hit the nail
on the head in the following manner:
The man who owns the most stores in
the city worked out when an apprentice
for $25 year and clothed himself out
of it. The most successful dry goods
merchant, one of our wealthiest men
came to this town poor boy, and /
knew him when he was clerk in
store on Main Street at small salary.
The largest stock holder in the First
National Bank, and man of large
means, got his start by working on a
farm for SO month. One of the lead
ing bank directors worked as hand,
when young man, on a North river
sloop. A citizen worth 100000, who
started with nothing, learned to write
his name after he was fifty years old.
One of the wealthiest men who walks
the streets worked as an apprentice in
a drugstore in Philadelphia for his
board and clothes, came to Peoria with
nothing but his good name, and hired
out as clerk. He soon went into
company with man who furnished
the capital, and in a few years paid his
partner $4,000 for his interest in the
establishment. One of our wealthiest
nit ,NpansJo,,t Of ho, IN,
Iowa, started life on Cape Cod with 81,
and has earned his own living since he
was eleven years old. Nearly every
director of the three banks, First and
Second Nationals and the Farmers and
Mechanics, started penniless. There
is scarcely an exception. The president
of one of the banks told me that he did
not believe that the entire Board of
Directors had inherited 81 500. The
honorable Chief Justice of the Supreme
Court of Illinois, resident of this city,
commenced the practice of his profession
in Knoxville with only $40 in the
world. The honorable Judge of the
Circuit Court of the Galesburg district,
who has lived here for thirty years,
worked his way through college and to
his profession. The county officers,
judge, attorney, treasurer, clerks OF
courts and sheriff, all started poor men.
The President of Knox College, from
the time he was mere lad, not only
earned his own living and paid for his
own education, but assisted in the
support of his parents.

Strangely Affected.


A Buena Vista, Ga, correspondent
says: Mr.. Louis Webb, in our town, is
strangely affected. For several years he
appeared paralyzed in his feet and legs
For several years he went on crutches,
but for the last eight has been walking
with a stick. He says he could drive q
knife through his foot and not feel it
that when he strikes his foot against
any object he knows it just as he knows
when he strikes stick against q SUBJ
stance,by the resistance offered only and
not by feeling. He bathes his feet often
sometimes in cold, sometimes in hot
water. He cannot tell by the feeling in
the foot whether the water is hot or
cold. Thus he has lived for eight years,
sometimes walking about and often in
bed. Now the strange part of the story
is that when cat touches his foot he
instantly feels it. The touch of a cat
against his foot, whether bare or with
socks on, sends instantly prickly sensa-
tions all through his foot.

Robbery Extraordinary.

The indianapolis "Journal" " says =
The grand parade of the knights of
Pythias on last Tuesday was the cause
of large number of crooks visiting the
city, and, if reports be true, they did get
in their work most charmingly on that
day, and all kinds of thefts have been
reported to the police. But last night
case was reported which happened on
that day which will prove interesting
to the readers of this paper as it is a
kind of stealing that has never been in
dulged in before by the light-fingered
gentry who have visited this city.
The facts of this robbery are about
these: Rudolph Mueller, a grocery
keeper at No. 172 South Illinois street,
has a most beautiful daughter, about
seven years of age. She has or rather
had, lovely head of hair, of a light
golden color, measuring some thirty
inches in length. On last Tuesday
afternoon the child in company with
several of her playmates, went to the
corner of Illinois and Washington street
to witness the parade. While there she
felt some one handling her hair, which
had been neatly arranged by her mother,
but as 1t was an every day occurrence for

sS- An ingenious system has been adopt
ed in Australia to prevent the savages
from destroying the telegraph poles. The
engineers have arranged supplementary
electric currents so that whoever touches
any of the poles instantly receives violent
shock. This unacountable result inspires
the savages with such terror that they no
longer dare tamper with the mysterious
wires, which, to their bewilderment, tra-
verse their extensive territory from end
to end. Through this expedient telegraph
connection is preserved for thousands of
miles without the expense of watching the
poles.
