Caught by the Old Man.

The northern part OF this county and
the southern part OF Randolph, SAYS a
Richmond, Ind, paper, Is in a lever
heat OF excitement over the elopement
of a pretty school girl Of thirteen, with
her fathers hired hand, and the pursuit
and capture OF the young Juliet: her
name is Hartley, and she is the daugh-
ter OF a well-ixed farmer, who owns a
farm on the other side OF the county
line. The two had been making love
on the sly for q long time, and at last
determined TO run away and get mar
ried, and return home and ask forgive
ness and a corner OF the old homestead
place. She was large and we'll develop
ed for one Of her age, and after chop
ping off her long silken tresses and put
ting on her brothers Sunday pants and
cnt away, she made a good looking boy.
Her best dress and summer hat were
packed in q carpet sack, and an hour
before daylight the rural Romeo drove
up under her window with a family
chaise, and she was soon slowed away
in it with her carpet.sack. They drove
rapidly over to Harrisville, a way sta.
ton on the railroad, and were standing
on the platform waiting for the morn,
ing accommodation to come along and
bear them away, when a freight train
drew up and the old gentleman jumped
off and began mauling the young fellow
with his fists. He stood it for a min
ute, and seeing that his picnic was over
he braced himself and gave his employ
er a good thrashing. The old man had
not detected his daughter in the round.
shouldered, fair-skinned boy that stood
by and Witnessed the engagement, and
she might still have eluded him if she
had tried; but when he began to cry
for his child and upbraided the fellow
for taking her from him, she ran to him
and asked to be taken home. When
they got on the cars he drove all the
out, and made her change
her apparel. He went home swearing
that if that fellow eve came around his
premises again he would shoot him.

Tho Rage For Beauty.

A correspondent, writing from Lon.
don, says that, talking OF beauty, among
fashions of the moment none strikes
one moro than the use extracted from
it both by the possessorS Of this article
and those who borrow it; and it would
be we'll to instruct u girls at home
more fully and from their earlist infan-
cy about the immense resources that
they hold it in their power to develop
by this valuable stock in social trade, 80
that they may early become adopts in
the great art of bartering it successfully.
1t may be stated without qualification
that at the present day beauty is all
powerful; and beauty pure and simple;
beauty without fortune III adroltly util-
ized); beauty without talent (other than
the commercial social ~talents); beauty,
must we say it, without character. 1t
IS all one. 1t is named in every invita-.
ton. "My dear" / heard old Mrs.
Landy say to elderly Mrs. Bond, "l'm
SO sorry you were not able to dine with
me. | had such a perfect dinner party;
il YOU had only known, Just think. A
poet, an actor, a journalist, a painter, a
wit, and a beauty. Yes, and a new
beauty. I'll tell you how found her.
She really belongs at present to Lady
Moriy and myself; but of course, now
we have started her, all the other peo-
pie will snap her up. Well, we were
sitting together at Mrs. Houndsley's, the
other day, thinkingit rather dull, when
suddenly the most perfect apparltien
YOU ever beheld stood before u.s.. An
old-master dress, an immense pattern, a
large hat-rim encircling a face, inside
some dark red hair, and the face a per-
feet one Yes! Well, you know it
turned out that she wasn't born in the
purple; her husband is just a clerk ia
Burley's bank. But We both insisted
on being introduced to her; for you see,
nv dear, there's no doubt about it, she
is a ready-made beauty. So the end OF
il was that Lady Moriy and l said to
each other: Now, it won't do for US
to have made her acquaintance and
then do nothing but give her the old
shoulder afterward. Wen bring her
on. You invite her Tuesday and Ill
invite her Thursday, and then she's
started" "What luck!' sighed the
elderly Mrs. Bond. Wasn't 1t, my
dear? No kind of trouble, you see,
about the dinner party. 1t went OF IT.

You Ara NO Gentleman.

"Do you call yourself q gentlerisn?'
is the commonest and most whitening
form Of carcasm in use, not only among
snobs, but among costermongers, coal
beavers and the like. To persons OF adj
mitted pretensions to gentility the
question is frequently put, and perhaps
negatively answered by the q~uestioner
when the superior person declines to
recognize a false OF, e~xorbitant claim.
Thus, not long ago / was asked II l call
ed myself a gentleman by a"young
lady" at q railway refreshment bar be-
cause / demurred at paying her q
sovereign for not having run away with
a purse that l had inadvertently left on
the counter for five minutes: and two
of her friends declared that / was mo
gentleman. without leaving any doubt
in the matter. l have been called mo
gentleman" for not paying a cabman
three times bis fare, and for objecting
to paw in furnished lodgings for articles
which / had neither ordered nor CON-
sumed. A loater in the street has some
times picked up a glove before / could
pick it up for myself, or told me that
my handkerchief Vas hanging out OF
nv pocket. In any other country than
England the commonest man paying
such attentions as these would be in
suited by the offer OF a reward, but in
this country | have been freely called
mo gentleman" for not encouraging
what is vulgarly called "cadging." 1t
seems, indeed, that to be a gentleman in
the eyes OF large classes OF the commun-
ity you must pay whatever may be de.
manded OF you upon any pretext, and
ask no questions.
Socially, the term gentleman" has
become almost vulgar. 1t is certainly
less employed by gentlemen than by
inferior persons. The n speaks OF "a
man I know" the other Of a gentle
man | know" In the one case the
gentleman is taken for granted, in the
other it seems to need specification.
Again, as regards the term lady" 1t
is quite in accordance with the usages
society to speak Of your acqualnt-
ance. the Duchess, as a very nice per-
son." People who would say a every
nice lady" are not generally of a social
class which have much to do with
Duchesses; and if you speak OF n OF
these as a "person" you will soon be
made to feel your mistake.--M the

West Virginia Giving President Garfield
Life Blood.

Some time ago Prof. Latham, OF our
University, analysed some water that
came from a spring on the lands OF Col.
Nimeygei, ut Irondale, in Preston coun-
ty, and found that it contained valuable
medical properties, especially such
qualities that are rare and that are rec
commended by eminent physicians for
Bright's disease OF the kidneys, liver
affections, etc. Later, We learn that
upon Prof. Latham making the valuable
qualities Of the water known to Col. N,
he sent a bottle of it to an eminent
chemist in New York city, who, we
learn, pronounced it the most valuable
discovery of the age. And now, it is
rumored, DR.. Aguew has sent from Long
Branch for a bottle of this water for
President Garfield. And all this was
brought about by the scientific investi-
CATION of Prof. Latham which led to the
discovery of the valuable medical prop
critics of this spring OF water. "ho

secured from his druggist a bottle OF
Browns Iron Bitters, having heard OF
its merit from a physician, who told
him not to take any other Bitters or
Tonic, for with the exception OF Browns
Iron Bitters, they all contained alcohol,
and had failed to give his patients last
ing relief; nor should he take any other
preparation OF Iron, for with the excep-
ton OF Browns Iron Bitters, they all
blackened the teeth, and often gave
headache. The effect vas most salts

his natural force came back, and he felt
himself altogether a new man, full OF
