A Woman n's >Oplnlon of the Men.

MFRS. DUNWAY, of the Northeast,
lVl at literary reunion at Salem,
Oregon, " toasted" the gentlemen as
follows:
God bless 'em. They halve our joys;
they double our sorrows; they treble our
expenses they quadruple our cares
they excite our magnanimity; they in
crease our selfrespect; they awake our
enthusiasm they arouse our affections !;
they control our property, and out.ma-
neuver us in everything. This would be a
very dreary world without 'em. In fact,I
may say, without prospect of successful
contradiction, that without 'em it would
not be much of a world anyhow. We
love 'em, and the dear being can't help
1t; we control 'em, and the precious
fellows don't know it.
AS husbands, they are always con-
venient, though not always on hand /;
as beaux, they are by no means " match
less" They are most agreeable visitors;
they are handy at State fairs, and indis-
pensable at oyster saloons. They are
splendid as escorts for some other fell
lows's wife or sister, and as friends they
are better than women. AS our fathers,
hey are ineEpressibly grand. A man

Adventure of Two Girls.

Two young ladies were imprisoned for
half day on the dome of the st. Louis
Court House last week. They had gone
up to the top, counting the steps after
the manner of woman, and after enjoy
ing the prospect, had found that they
could not open door leading down the
stairway.
After six long hours of anxiety and
weariness, ,one of the mremembered a de-
vice resorted to by the heroine of her
favorite novel. She wrote few words
on paper, clamped the slip under the
blade of her pen knife and tossed it into
the street.
A young man picked up the knife and
read these words written on the tag in
delicate hand:
"We are fastened in the dome For
heavens sake get us out !"
He showed the signal of distress to the
janitor.
"Mein Gott und Himmell |" exclaimed
that worthy man; "dose pooty gals up
dere all desc times ~
He rushed up the winding stairs as
fast as his legs would carry him, and
reaching the top, opened the small door
leading to the cupola. The girls reeeiv-
ed him with tears OF joy, and in their
qualification may have added kiss or
two. They are now anxious TO find out
what ia the color Of the eyes Of the young
man who picked up the knife to Wit,
their noble preserver.

prisonment. He had not been in prison
more than three months, when to the
astonishment of the jailer, pardon
came for him, in due form, all signed
by the Governor, and properly counter
signed. There was nothing to be done
but liberate the prisoner, and he walked
out. But he had not been gone long
before the jailer discovered that the
prisoner had managed through his
friends to get blank pardon from the
Governors office, had filled it out him.
self, and cleverly forged the signatures,
and had then passed 1t out to his friends
again, to be mailed to the jailer In proper
shape. The clever forger had not got
far enough away to escape, and he was
arrested and sent back to prison. He
employed a young New York lawyer
whose name is familiar through the
fame of his father, and told him the
story.
They have no right to lock you up

"The lawyer read the letter carefully,
drew check for 81 900 handed it to his
client and received the draft for 1900.
About ten days after the draft was de-
posted in bank for collection it came
back with the message that the man on
whom it was drawn had been dead for
eight years, and wasn't worth cent

A Child's Advice.

Leaving home this morning for the
office, we kissed our little four-year-old
goodbye, saying to him:
''Be good boy to-day"
He somewhat surprised us by replyt
ing:
" will. Be good man, papa"
Sure enough, we thought. We need
the exhortation more than he. And
who could give it more effectually than
this guiltless prattler The words of the
little preacher have been ringing in our
ears all day, and whether we wrote let
ters or editorials, pacifed an irate cores
pondent whose letter we could not pub
lish, or pruned down too lengthy re-
port, we seemed to hear the sweet child's
voice saying;
" Be good man, papa"
If the ex,hortation had been by Paul
or Peter, would it have had more force
than coming from this little apostle of
innocence We think not, at least to
our heart. Oh, how many little chill
dren if not in words, yet by the help
lessness of their lives and the trustful-
ness of their little hearts, are pleading
most eloquently, "Papa, be a good
man !" May their tender admonition
be blessed of God to the rescuing of
many precious souls from the wreck and
ruin of sinful lives !''-Ex.

A Very Sad Case.

A woman in Nevada has applied for
divorce upon the ground that she has
received absolutely nothing from her
husband since their marriage but box
of hair-pins. We have not very init
mate acquaintance with the laws of
Nevada, but really it seems to us this is
sufficient grounds for divorce.
A woman who is dressed the whole of
her married life in nothing but hair
pins naturally could not get into society
very often, and she must suffer great
deal in cold weather. We should think
a man who would not buy more ex-
tensive wardrobe than this for his wife
must be exceedingly mean. Hair-pins
are becoming enough, so far as they go I;
but to wear nothing else-well, it is al
together wrong.

A Sudden Conversion.

NTHEN spiritualism first made its
w appearance in the village of -,
old Deacon Isaacs, rich man, who had
stood by the church for nearly three
score years, was exceedingly bitter
against all believers in the "devil's
work" as he called it, and denounced
spirtualists and spiritualism in no very
gentle language.
Imagine the Deacon's anger, then,
when six months afterwards he found
1t had worked into his family, and not
only were his wife and daughters be-
levers, but one of them was medium
and possessed full power to converse
with the spirits of those who had de-
parted to that bourne whence no trav-
eler returns.n
Deacon Isaacs was mad, dreadfully
mad but he had sense enough not to
show 1t, and bore the taunts of the I'M
godly with meek spirit. He knew II
would be useless to declare omen war /:
for Mrs. Isaacs alone had proved more
than a match for him, and he was sure
to be defeated. He must " circumvent
the critter," as he expressed it, and TO
this end he set himself to work.
He was a man of sound judgment
and his worldly experience of fifty
