The Fatal Belt.

There was widow lady of compara-
tive youth and many personal attractions
residing in Canton, N. Y, who had, tor
some time, unsuccessfully endeavored to
induce the local dentist to accept the
rank and emoluments of her late hus-
band. The dentist, however, was a
cautioys man, and, although lie greatly
admired the widow, declined to commit
himself. About month ago Esquire
Smedly, of Canton, gave party, which
was altogether the most brilliant affair
of the kind within the memory of the
oldest inhabitant. The parlor of the
Smedl, mansion was crowded with
guests, who overfowed the hall, and rose
gradually to the top of the staircase
In the course of the evening the widow
became somewhat faint, in consequence
of the heat, and requested the dentist to
conduct her into the garden, where the
fresh air might revive her. 1t did re-
vive her to an immense extent, and the
dentist found the garden such pleasant
place that he decided to remain with his
companion and smc Ike cigar.
When the pair returned to the paror
curious phenomenon attracted unusual
attention. The widow wore wide belt
beautifully ornamented with painted
vine of some undetermined botanical
species. The dentist wore black coat,
and, to the amazement of the public, one
side of his right sleeve was seen to be
decorated with the green stem and
leaves and the brilliant white and yell
low flowers Of the vine that ornamented
the widows belt. The conclusion drawn
by wicked and heartless people was
inevitable. There was no possible de-
fense to be made. The widow wisely
slipped out and went home, and the den
tisJ followed her example, burning with
rage and wishing that all Canton had
but one back-tooth, that he might draw
it With an old-fashion turnkey and with
out the use of anasthetics. OF course,
the widow lost no time in pointing out
to him that there was but one way in
which he could repair his indiscretion
and undo the injury which he had done
her, and accordingly he was within a
week brought to the altar, where he ex-
plated his fault with much fortitude,
and furnished an awful example of the
wickedness OF painted belts. Y.
