nunGred days, without other interest than
naturally attaches to such payment. He took
his pay decorously and contentedly in the
shape of simple cha,te salute for three or
four days, and then he wanted to put his arm
around her waste, and condense about five
hundred kisses into one. She objected, and
he said q kiss was not kiss unless n fellow
had his arm around girls waist. The girl
maintained her right to judge and denied the
necessity of any accessories whatever, where
upon the young man, with baseness unpar-
aleled in history, sues the girl for the iewelry,
and she pleads that she is able and willing to
pay as per-agreement, but will not submit to
extortion. Meantime an anxious public
awaits the decision of the court as to what
constitutes kiss.
The new word for style is cult, that being
the old English word from which culture Is
derived. II contains lofter meaning than
style, lnasmuch rs ii implies individuality.
The last cult in England is perfect disregard
to fashion in dress. Individuality is the rul-
ing divinity in the world of fashion. Ladies
consult artists instead of dress makers, and
the dress must be in strict accord with the
Wearer's style, instead of the reverse. 1t is

A Word of Warning 20 Counterfeiters

The widespread fame of Hostetters,
Stomach Bitters causes anecessity on our part
to remind, from time to time, whom it may
concern,of the fact that initiating said article
is punishable offence, and we now give this
word of caution, that we will most assuredly
have all those persons engaged in re-flling
our secondhand bottles, selling by the gallon
or barrel, or in any manner whatsoever palm
ing off on the public spurious article pur-
porting to be our preparation, punished to
the full extent of the law. We never fail to
convict, as the New Orleans and St. Louis
county records fully affirm.

A Man Who Remembered.


A friend gave us the following anecdote
of dear old John Brougham, now departed {:
During the second and last season of his
Lyceum theatre, on the corner of Broome and
Broadway, New York, the business dropped,
and SO did the salaries--in fact for months
King Henry did not take the air consequent
decentralization and disgust on the
part Of the company, who seeded,
one by one, like the performers in
Haydn's celebrated "Toy SYMPHONY"
AT last things came to head, and an indg-
nation meeting was held on the stage,
and genial John was bullied and hadgered
until he fairly took to his heels and sought
refuge in his private room, whittier he was
followed by one of the company, his friend
and countryman. John had thrown himself
in chair, and was weeping bitter tears of
modification. The friend could not stand
that. Many trait of kindness and generos.
ity rose up in his mind. and rushing back to
the stage, he went to the prompt table and
wrote a receipt in full for all his back salary.
His example was contagious. The rest fol-
lowed suit, and general amnesty ensUed.
Many years afterward John came to
California to play a star engagement. There
he met his friend, who had likewise drifted to
the Pacific slope. Brougham told him that
he was anxious to make present to lady,
and asked his advice as to the most fitting
form in which to put his intention. The
friend suggested handsome set of furs, and
Brougham and he went to a store on Mont
gomery street, where splendid set was
chosen and three hundred and odd dollars
forked over by John in payment for the
same. Behold, on the friends return home
his wife met him, exclaiming, "Who could
have sent me this magnificent present ?" and
there was the identical set of turs.
