HOW TO PAY A COMPLIMENT.
Boston Transcript.

Boston Transcript.
To pay q compliment Is to tell the truth.
and to tell it as though you meant it. And
the only way to do that is to mean it. If
girl is pretty or accomplished if she plays
we'll. or sings we'll, or dances we'll. or talks
we'll If, In . word. she pleases, why. in the
name of common sense, shouldn't she be
told Of II? Don't blurt it out before every
body. She will only serve to make her
feel uncomfortable and make you appear
ridiculous. Say it quietly when oppor,u,
nifty offers, but SO that there may be no
mistake about it. But don't say 1t off
cially." Formally is about the coldest
thing known. More than one maiden has
been made hsppy-say for half an hour
by a man taking the trouble to says pleas
ant thing about q toilet that he liked, and
many of fashions follics have been given
up by girls when they noticed a discree,
silence concerning them on the part OF
their gentlemen friends. A bewitching
little black.e eyed beauty once said to a gen
tleman," l like to have you say sweet things
TO me, if 1t seems TO come so easy and ma.
tural." In genera! terms. it may be said
that it is always better to ssy an agreeable
thing than o disagreeable one--better fol
all parties. The gallant who, when q
young lady stepped on his foot while dane
ing and asked pardon. said, Don't mention
it; q dainty little foot like that wouldn't
hurt a daisy" not only told the truth but
doubtless felt more comfortable than the
poor fellow who. when his foot wss step
ed on, roared out, That's right climb all
over me with your great, clumsy hoofs."

upon Senator Thurman and his speech in
the Senate, and says ''this man, whose feel

ocratic repeaters and rogues, has heard,
without sign of emotion, of such occur

murder of men and women for opinions
sake; the merciless shooting down of neg
roes and burning of their homes; and all
the numberless outrages that have driven
these poor creatures by hundreds to take
refuge in fight from the land of the solid
Democracy. All these things he can see

Good Intentions.
The Importance OF Interfering Between
Husband and Wife.
Allentown Penn, Chronicle I

Allentown PENN Chronicle
A good joke is told on certain gentleman
which is too good to be lost. Our friend who
shall be nameless, purchased pair of pants
few days ago which, upon being tried on at
home, he found to be too long. That night he
remarked to his wife that he wished her to
take off an inch from each leg, which would
make them the desired length. Being fond
as many good wives are, of teasing her hus-
band she told him ''fat-footed" that she
shouldn't do anything of the kind, and he re-
tired finally, without having obtained a prom
Use from her that she would attend to the mat
ter, Soon after he had left for his room, how
ever, she as a matter of course, clipped off the
superhuous inch, as she had been asked to-
The family is composed OF SIX female mem berS
in addition to the goodman, and it CHANGED
that each one of the five, who were in adioin-
ing rooms. including the mother of our friend
heard the dispute between man and wife about
the pants, and after the latter had taken out
the required inch and retired, the old lady, de-
string to "keep peace in the family and not
knowing what her danghter-in-law had
done, cautiously slipped into the room and
cut off another inch. In this way did each of
the aforesaid five ladies all unknown to the
other, and all with the praiseworthy object of
preventing any misunderstanding between the
married couple, clip an inch from the legs of
the gentleman'S trousers The following
morning, all unconscious of what had taken
place during the night, he rolled up his pants
in piece Of paper and took them to the tailor
to be shortened to the desired length. Upon a
hasty glance the latter ventured the opinion
that they were already rather Short but the
owner was too well posted on that score, and
insisted that they were fully an inch too long.
The tailor had no more to say, and our friend
retired. On the following Saturday he called
for the pants and took them home, and the
next morning when he came to put himself
inside of them he was supremely disgusted at
finding the legs reached only a trife below the
knee. In other words, they had been altered
to the fashion of century ago, when knee
breeches were in vogue. He straightway ac-
cused the tailor of having ruined the pants,
and his Indignation was expressed in language
anything but mild. His wife heard him and
came to the rescue of the knight of the shears,
explaining that she had taken an inch from
each of the legs, and her acknowledgement
was followed by that of each of the other five
ladies, when it was discovered that altogether
the legs had actually been shortened to the ex-
tent of seven inches.

Bayard, the French Psychologist, maintained
that man is an animal who exercises the think
ing faculty best in q horizontal position. Thus,
there are high artistic social and intellectual
uses connected with an occasional day in bed,
which imperativey claim discussion. Brinley,

betook himself to bed until he had solved it.

Melbourne, who, under the affectation of friv-
