Why She Missed the Ferry.BOat.
ISan EHranciaco -I.at

She was to meet her adored one on the 9
O'Clock Oakland boat, and it wanted IS minutes
OF the hour. Her hand was on the door to go
out, when 1t struck her that she had forgotten
to line her left eyebrow. Rushing to the glass
to rectify this, she discovered small red spot,
commemorative of a departed pimple. A dab
of lilly-white settled that defect, and she was
about to make fresh start, when backward
glance assured her that her new hat was not as
becoming as it should be. So she stopped just
long enough to give it q punch over one ear,
and a '.hyke" in the back. Then her 'sRecam-
Ter locks" wanted little arranging and an inch
of blonde must be pinned across her nose Then
she parted her lips to see If her filled tooth
showed very plainly, and that started most
seductive dimple In one cheek which suggested
a scrap Of black court-plaster on its very verge
to call attention to its dangers like sign-board
on thinly frozen pond. Then she tipped the
glass and stuck in the curling tongs to hold it.
and walked across the room with her head
over her shoulder to get back view, gave her
drapery witch here and pat there, tried to
see how long step she could take without
bursting the tapes, gave herself little shake
like a sparrow after shower, changed her
four-button gloves for six, sprinkled Lubin's
latest on her handkerchief, stamped her little
French heels once or twice to settle herself, and,
selling her parasol In the most approved style
to show the lace to adv antage started for the
ferry, where smiling official, either In fit of
admiration or sarcasm, offered her his glass
with which to watch the fast receding boat,
already half across the bay.

A Sinners Raise.

A stranger loaded down with big satchel
halted at the post office corner yesterday to
have his boots shined, and when the job had
been completed he felt for nickel with the
bill?"
.'Not much!" replied the sinner. ''That used
to be the figure, but it is seven cents now"

packed his brushes away, ''do you read the

ssWell how dye 'spose we kin black bute5 at

Grant 1t the Opera.

McVicker tells good story OF Grant On the
Monday following the Generals arrival here It
win be remembered that Mcvicker's Theater was
beautifully decorated In honor OF Grants visit to
the opera. The private box Of the manager was
set apart for the distinguished guest, and con-
meeting Herewith was smoking room, where,
between the acts, the General enjoyed his favor
lite cigar. The opera was Max Maretzek's new
production OF SLEEPY Hollow" and as it was the
initial performance all concerned were particu-
larry anxious for its success. When the opera
was partially over, and while Grant was pulling
away In the smoking room waiting for the rise
OF the curtain, McVIcker thought he would get
an expression Of opinion from his guest regard
ing the merits Of the production. "He seems to
see what he thinks Of the piece, anyway" So
In his quiet way he sauntered up to Grant and
said:
General, how do you like the opera9,
"Grant slowly took his cigar from his mouth
and blew away a cloud Of smoke. "Wel," he
replied slowly, 'if that fellow gets the girl and
the two thousand dollars it is all right
Il was satisfied" says McVicker," that the
General had kept the run of the story, but am
not quite sure what he thought of the OPERA

Dana,s Income.

A few days ago the real-eState records showed
the sale OF large house in Forty-seventh street,
close by Fifth avenue, to Charles A. Dana for
$6S, 600. He Is one OF the few working Journal
lists In New York who have been able to pur-
chase house for that or any approxlm ate
price. Working journalism, as all within the
profession well know, Is not means or winning
gold. But ever since Danas friends bought the
Beach Sun for SIS, 600 19 years ago, he has
grown steadily rich. Then his property would
hardly have reached $30, 900 all told; and now
he probably has an annual income of at least
$4,000. His present financial position must be
a pleasing contrast to his position when he be
gan as foreign editor on the Tribune for the
munificent salary OF sl2 week. 1t is doubtless
comfort to be engaged in newspaper enter
prise which is handsomely remunerative. The
sun Is, think, the only journal out of which
Dana has made any money, although his yen-
lures have been varied. The American Cyclic
pedia is probably the only other source OF his
present fortune, and out OF 1t he Is reported to
have made from $1OO, 900 to $3.50, 900 clear. The
first issue OF the cyclop8dia sold very largely
because there was such need Of it; and the Sec
ond issue has also sold very largely for the same

The Happy Hour.
1.-THE Methodist. ]

The busy day is over,
The household work is done;
The cares that fret the morning
Have faded with the sun;
And in the tender twilight,
I sit in happy rest,
With my darling little baby
Asleep upon my breast.
White lids, with silken fringes,
Shut out the waning light;
A little hand close folded
Holds mammals fingers tight;
And in their soft white wrappings,
At last in perfect rest,
Two dainty feet are cuddled,
Like brides in q nest.
All hopes and loves unworthy
Depart at this sweet hour;
AL pure and noble longings
Renew their holy power;
For Christ, who, in the Virgin,
Our motherhood has blest,
Is near to every woman
With a baby on her breast.

A Stolen Visit.
Boston Transcript.

This Is her dainty room,
Where youth and beauty found their perfect bloom
This is her COY chair
How oft her form has nestled softly there!
Here is her cleaning glass,
BY which her graceful figure used to pass;
And, though she is away,
Ii seems her smiles are there, and still will stay.
These are her favorite books,
The pages longing for her loving looks.
Here is her happy bed
The pillow where abe nightly rests her ead.
She comes-her step know:

Good Advice TO Married People.

Preserve sacredly the privacies of
your own house, your married state, and
your heart. Let no father or mother,
or sister or brother, ever presume to
come between you, or to share the joys
or sorrows that belong to you two alone.
With mutual help build your quiet
world, not allowing your dearest earthly
friend to be the confidant of aught that
concerns your domestic peace. Let mo-
ments of alienation, if they occur, be
healed at once. Never, no never speak
Of it outside, but to each other confess,
and all will come out right. Never let
the morrow's sun still find you at vari-
ance. Renew and renew your vow it
will do you good, and thereby your
minds will grow together, contented in
that love which Is stronger than death,
and will become truly one.

Tender Poultry.

The reason poultry killed at home,
though young, is not as tender as that
bought at the market is that the former
is generally not killed until wanted,
and when eaten is still rigid with death,
while that bought at the poulterer's has
been killed at least hours more often
days. Poultry ought to be killed several
days before being eaten, dressed at once,
and, with few bits of charcoal in 1t,
hung in cool place. If poultry are
kept from food and drink at least twelve
hours before killing, the crop and in
testines will be emptied, and any super
fluffy of secretiuns exhausted. The flesh
will be juicy and the fat firm. If left
three days without food or drink,
though in good condition previously, the
flesh will be dry and tasteless and the
fat soft. Never buy an undrawn fowl
The gas from the crop and intestines
will faint the flesh, even though retained
but short time.
