kissing the Wrong Man.

Amusingscenes often occur at railway
depots. The Rochester Chronicle tells
the following as happening there:
The Erie depot was the scene of ludi-
crous mistake last night on the arrival
of the day express. A young lady, well
known in society here, came from the
platform with bound. A benevolent
looking old gentleman with long ulster
and snow white side whiskers was stand
ing directly in front of the car evidently
watching for friend. She dropped her
travelling bag and with more than the
usual demonstrations displayed on such
occasions, threw both arms about his
neck and imprinted several sounding
kisses upon his face, at the same time
murmuring, " oh, papaT' The startled
old gentleman pushed her gently and
said in a smothered tone, "Some mis-
take, some mistake" She sprang back
like frightened fawn, "Oh, l thought
you were father. You'll excuse me,
won't your Certainly" said the old
boy smacking his lips and smiling, but
you-you nearly smothered me" She
afterwards found her papa" but the
previous effort had exhausted her and
She merely gave him cold sort Of a
Westinghouse kiss.

IS on the principle that scarcity contri.
putes to the welfare of mankind, and
Tat in the abundance Of things there is
poverty; on the principle that tho dear

community. But we have now a great
plenty OF that which makes bread. We
consequently suggest to the faImer that
ne mad better stop the production for
ax months or SO, in order TO make bread
desrer. If, on the other hand, the com,
mon sense theory prevails, namely, that
sne riches OF men consist in the abun-
dance Of things, we cannot see how the
community will be made any richer by
making pals scsrcer. Certainly the
men who make the nails will not be, nor
yet the men that use them. Those who
