citation for her vaguely described
personal attractions which even she
was rot prepared to expect.
Bewildered 10y the warm volume
of alteration and entreaty which is
sued from this hymenial magazine,
the lady called to her aid five ladies'
Us mischeivous as herself One pair
of hands and ono mind were, of
course, quite unequal to the task of
answering all; so the batch of bill
letdoux was divided equally among
them, and each was to make an APP
pointment with the writer's on the
following Saturday afternoon at four
O'Clock on the loVsr side of the up
stairs saloon of cestain popular res
taurant. Each of the ladies', more
over, who took the task in charge,
chose different colored paper for
replies. Finally, it was agreed that
the whole six should be present at
the interview, and that each should
wear the exact costume prescribed
for the inamorata whom the signing
swains would be there to see. On
the other hand, the gentlemen were
directed to appear in all the varieties
of attire and position which female
ingenuity aud mischief could devise.
One was requested to- wear a blue.
coat and bright brass buttons; an
other to have his hair parted in the
middle; one was to be eating a plate
of pork and beans, which, said the
ingenious writer who dictated it,

dishes, or to place themselves in
such attitudes and postures as were
directed by the writer.
At four o'clock, on the prescribed
Saturday afternoon, every chair at
every table on the lower side of
the upstairs saloon was filed with
highly perfumed Leaders, all gazing
into each others faces. and each
secretly cursing the luck which
wedged him closely out of the killing
positions and display which he had
been meditating ever since he got
his note. And how the dishes
smoked and the wondering walters
flew! Even the perplexed landlord,
amazed at the miraculous flow OF
business, was obliged to drop his
own chop and call out the entire
force Of his establishment to meet
the clamorous. if not threatening de-
mands Of gentlemen who feared they
might not get their telesraphing
plate or duck or mess of pork and
beans in time.
At length the rustic of stiff skirts
was heard coming up the staiEs-one
minute after four. and an inaaorAta
