inches thick, and then with a round

meter, cut out of each slice as many
pieces as possible. With another paste
cutter, about one and half inches In

the smaller paste cutter), and with the
handle of teas Don scoop out all the

with a sheet of oiled paper, put them

Many Of the first settlers Of Illinois were
rude in speech and rough in manner.
Money was scarce with them, and service
was paid for in produce. Governor B.
used to illustrate these incidents OF from.
tier life by the following anecdote:
One day there came to his office young
man accompanied by young woman.
BE you the 'Square2 asked the manly
youth.
Yes, sir.
Can you tic the knot for us, right away2
Yes, sir.
How much do you charger
One dollar is the legal fee, sir.
Will you take your fee in besswaxp
Yes, ifyou cant pay cash,
Well, go ahead and tic the knot, and I'll
fetch in the wax
No, said the Square. thinking there was
good chance for little fun; bring in tho
beeswaI first. and then I'll marry your.
Reluctantly the youth went out to
where WAS hitched the horse, upon which,
Darby and Joan fashion, thcy had ridden,
and brought the wax in sack. On being
weighed, its value was found TO be only
60 cents
Wall, said the anxious groom, tic tho
knot. and I'll fetch more wax next week.
No, sir | don't trust that is against the
rules OF this office.
Slowly the disappointed youth turned
to go out, saying; Come, Sail, let'sgo.
say, mister, answered Sail. with awo-
mans wit, cant you marry us as far as the
wax will go?
Yes, can, and will. replied the Squire

The equine had seen about twenty sum

there was general laugh at the idea Of his
being afraid OF anything. Nevertheless,
as Lake Shore train hooted in the dis

RRsrLBss Bur POLITE AMERIcA.--Th,
rule in America is restlessness. The op.
posite obtains in England. The. old
country is, therefore, peculiarly attractive
to many persons who have lived their lives
in America and want rest. The intensity
Of life N the cities is especially apparent
in Chicago All the town seems to be per.
petually ION the rush" There is draw
bridge that crosses one Of the chief
thoroughiares The traffic is detained
while il opens and shuts. Scores OF men
leap from the oars aud try to get over
while it is moving. Not that they really
facilitate their progress, for they have
eventually to wait for the cars to cross;
but they must "get on" 1t is as If some
demon of motion was behind everybody
in Chicago, there is such general onward
stampede in the Prairie City. But let it
be said in their honor that the men are
never in too great hurry TO neglect any
opportunity Of being polite to women.
Aud this must be said generally for the
men of the United States. Their natural
gsllentry to the sex. their consideration
for women OF every class and station, puts
TO shame the most polished nations of Eu-
rope. A woman may travel alone from
Que end OF the states to another, and every
man seems pledged to her safety anl COM
fort. The fact that she is alone gives her
immunity from insult. In London pret.
ty girl or well dressed woman cannot
walk along any leading thoroughfare with
out being insulted by word or look half a
dozen times. The rudeness OF men toward
women in omnibuses and on railways, and
their impertinence TO them in the streets,
are burning disgrace to nation which
boasts Of its manhood, and glories in its
advanced civilization. The women OF
America do not quite appreciate the defer
ence and respect which they receive at the
hands Of their countrymen. They are too
apt to accept special courtesies as right.
No wonder many Of them'dislike England,
wherc men often give them an equality Of
position with themselves, letting them
fight their own way in crowded railway
depot or omnibus station without the
slightest acknowledgement Of the privilege
Of the stronger sex, which is to be kind
and gentle in the treatment of the weaker. |

what il used 10 be, These bits o. gossip,
carefully gathered up and neatly put to.
ge,her, went from lip to lip, and in the
course OF time went the round Of Mrs
Dodd's tea table. Mr.. Dent listened,
smiled knowing smile. and said some.
thing 10 himself that won't repeat,
though know very well what !, was.
A year later he took tea fora second
time at the Lawsons'. A few friends were
also gathered around the table, and beside
him, blushing and lovely, in her simple
white dress, with orange flowers in her
hair, and wedding ring on her finger, sat
Mary Jane, who had taken the VOWS Of
wife one short hour before
At first Mr.. Lawson thought the mar
riage Of his only daughter must be q grand
affair, and had talked Of invitations. aud
orders to the forest and confectioner.
But Mary Jane, in whose mind the lesson
Of year ago was still fresh, begged with
hot cheeks and burning eyes:
DON'T please don't, father l never,
never could look John in the face again. il
you make all that fuss,
And so it happened that the rooms wore
only their own homely, pleasant look, and
that the table, with the exception of the
huge brides cake, with q pair OF clasped
hands. presented no unusual appearance

she Lawsons' gave away their daughter,

Can yon tell me, sir, what effect the re-

A salutary effect, 1 hope, replied the
managing editor.
But has it been received aud adopted
yet?
Yes, l reckon so. The people will take
to it as substitute for King james

Now, suppose there is lawsuit in
which some of the Witnesses had been
sworn on the old Bible, would an oatli on
the new Bible be deemed binding on the
witnesses yet to be examined?
don't sec why not said the editor.
Just 30. But take the case OF q man
who committed murder the day before
the new Bible came out, while the old one
was in operation--could he repent under
the new Bible, or must he be hung under
the old edition? In other words. can q

the repentance merge? Are mans rights

down his pen.
In other words, you esteem the new as
