"A Very Sensible Young Lady.


We noticed young little lady
passing down the aisle of the Grand
Opera House, in st. Louis, the other
evening wearing very stylish and
attractive, but large, ''mush'' (short
for mushroom) hat. As she glided
toward the front the ladies and gen.
tlemen in the row behind her began
moving about uneasily, as if they
feared total eclipse Of the stage for
the remainder of the evening. They
were not annoyed long, for after set
tling comfortably IN her chair the
lady cody removed her large hat and
hung it to the back of the seat
just IN front of her. Then she ex-
tracted a worsted "fascinator" from
the pocket of her sacque and ar
ranged it in a very fascinating man
ner upon her head, making her look
''too sweet for anything" as an old
bachelor expressed it. All of her
neighbors exchanged very approving
smiles, and the stag coterie in that
locality rewarded her with quite
ripple of applause. She set good
example for her older friends, and
deserves a season ticket for her good
sense and regard for the comfort and
enjoyment of others. Let us have
few more fascinators and fewer
mushrooms or hay stacks in Mexico.

THE CLOSING YEAR.

resembles those thst have preceded
it. AS usual at this season there is
sensible tightening of business at
commercial centers. The time for
settlement is approaching and all
prudent retailers throughout the
country are postponing all possible
PURCHASES until their accounts for
the NewYear are opened and besides
there is decline in the prices of
produce, owing to increasing rates of
interest. But in other respects this
year presents unusual contrasts I'm
like other winters the present has
been mild and open. In some Of its
aspects this condition of the weather
has been highly advantageous. Grass
has been abundant and corn has
gone long way in sustaining and
fattening animals. Unfortunately,
however, favorable as the early sea-
son has been for gathering it, a great
deal Of the latter crop has been al
lowed to remain ON the stalk until,
owing to the absence of frost, it is
almost impossible to haul load of it
out of the fields. This has kept
back the sale of a good deal of it
Notwithstanding the high prices at
which it has ruled. But perhaps in
no one thing in country towns has
anything pertaining to the old year
contrasted more discouragingly with
the past than this Christmas with
others. There has been little activi-
ty in catering for youth in town or
country. Not to dwell on the toy
shops, which are supposed to exist
for their special benefit, all our stores
are burdened with goods. Our mer
chants have laid in unusual stocks
and made unprecedented efforts to
sell them. Prices were never rela-
lively lower. The styles of the silks
and other dry goods in our city
stores were never less unexception.

precedented rush for them and every

A Famous Miser.

Vandille, a remarkable French
miser, was at one time Mayor of
Boulogne, and while in that position
partly maintained himself by being
milk-taster general at the market.
While munching scrap of bread off
he would partake Of gratuitous
draughts. He always travelled to
Paris on foot, and, fearful lest he
should be robbed, took good care
never TO have more than three pence
in his pocket; if he needed more
money, he begged on the road. By
such methods, and lending money to
the French government, he made
fortune Of $3.50, 900, sprung from a
single shilling.
During the very cold winter of 1884,
he found it necessary to purchase
some extra fuel, and endeavored to
beat down the wood merchant in his
price. The man drove off, and Van
ollie stole few logs from the back of
the cart. In fastening away with
them, he became overheated and con-
tracted a bad fever. He sent for the
surgeon, telling him he wanted to be
bled. AS the surgeon charged half q
livre, which he thought was too much,
barber was called in, who agreed
to open vein for threepcnce.
"But, trIend,' said the cautious
miser, chow often will it be requisite
to bleed me?''
"Three times" replied the barber.
"Three times! And, pray, what
quantity of blood do you intend TO
take from me at each operation?"
"About eight ounces each time"
"That will be ninepence; too much!
too much! know a cheaper way;
take the whole twenty-four ounces at
once, and that will save me six
pence.' =
He saved his sixpence, but lost his
| life.
