r..,or Vindicated.

uh;le M British subject (of Canada)
is more unpopular in the United States,
- more denounced at present than
yennor, the weather prophet, yet it
must be admitted he is generally on
ton (of the snow), though many wish
he was "snowed under" He did not
hit it exactly as to the snow fall Of this
month, as we had deep snow on the
lst of April, but his predictions for the
month, as given below, will be received
with increased interest. They are as
follows:
There will be sharp frosts in the be-
ginning of April, with snow storm on
the 4th or 5th, but the spring will open
favorably, and everything will be pretty
well advanced by April 18th. Floods
may be expecteg in Chicago about :he
first week in April, with high winds
also prevailing in the early part OF the
month. Snowfalls are probable about
April 5th. Navigation is likely to open
on Lake Ontario about April 7th.
"The ST. Lawrence will be open
about the 9th or 11th, and the first
steamship will probably arrive about
the 18th or 18th. The weather will be
verv stormy in the Lower Provinces
about the 2Oth, with very high water
prevailing; but, in The West, April will
be dry month. There will be warm
weather just following the goth, end
ing in thunder storms on the 24th and
25th. Snow storms are probable IN
the far West on the 25th or 26th, and
snow storms are not unlikely to occur
in England at the close of the month.
The month will end wet and cold, but
on the whole will lie Ike May month. "

AN OHIO MAN AT HEART.

The other day | ran across an old
friend who has figured somewhat in
the foreign service.
"What are you doing here?"
"Well, the fact is | want to be Con-
sui at -, and the indications are
that l can get it if I push my claim"
"Well, l don't see what claim you
have on this country. You didn't get
wounded more than once or twice in
the late unpleasantness, and you
haven't squandered more than ten
thousand for the party. Besides that,
you're too far west. Indiana is lit
tie out of range just now. Why don't
YOU come from Ohio ?"
"Well," he replied, "that's pretty
good argument. Just between us now,

Milwaukee Sentinel.

Hl QEr Swain, of Peshtigo, was
one d the happiest of mortals yester-
day. A widower, the owner of a fif-
| ty-acre farm, he desired and came to
the city to form a new matrimonial
alliance. He discovered his affinity
in a well-known woman on the West
Side named Rika K. Schwanz, en-
bellished her with jewelry at a sec
ond- hand store, purchased her a long,
white veil, which trailed on the walk
behind her, and large loops of the
same material for her shoulders.
They were married by justice and
proceeded northward on the evening
train. the bride wearing her veil and
puffs, and the bridegroom arrayed as
he came, carrying under his arm a
paper bundle, through which an end
of a long loaf of brown bread pro-
truded. They found all the people
at the depot in smiles and declared
that Milwaukeeans were the happiest
people on the face Of the globe,

THE SCIENCE OF KISSING.

Science in the last few years has
gained a terrible foothold in this
world. 1t has ratified the dry bones
of fogyism, made pi ont of worn out
theories, upset ideas which have been
established for centuries. The lat
est and most astonishing fact that has
been developed is that there is a
scientific mode of kissing. The day
when young man could grab girl
around the neck and gobble kiss IN
a rough but comfortable mann er is
past. The time when he could en-
circle her waist with one arm, get his
shirt bosom full of hair oil, and pi-
roueue his lips over every square inch
of her countenance is no more.
Science has proclaimed against it,
and man shudders but remains silent.
The old style of kissing which sounds
like tearing a clapboard off a smoke
house, is now considered bad taste,
and consequently going out of fashion,
although the majority of girls admit
that science has cruelty destroyed all
the comfort of long, lingering, heart
thrilling kiss, and this fact caused
them to express no little regret. The
Improved scientific method of kissing
is to throw the right arm languidly
around the fair ones shoulder, tilt
her chin up with the left hand, until
her face is pointed at an angle of 20
degrees-or rather until 1t has an
aspect resembling the bowsprit of a
clipper built sloop. Then stoop softly
and Craze about her lips in a quiet,
sudden sort of way, and tickle her
nose with your moustache until she
cries "Ouch !" This is scientific kiss
ing {; but there is no consolation in
it-nothing to make a man feel like
as if couple of galvanic butterflies
were galloping along his spinal col
umn. 1t is fat-lukewarm, it lacks
substance, and, if not stale, it is at
least u nprotitable.

A wOMAN'S QUICK WIT.
Letter to Cincinnati Commercial.

The part of Tennessee through
which ] have been knocked about is
full of "reminiscences of the war, but
there is none of its bitterness left.
In war time the people were greatly
divided in their sentiments, and no
man could tell t'Other from which.
This remark reminds me of a story
heard yesterday about an estimable
woman ofseventy odd, who died two
or three years ago here on the noun
tains. One day during the war when
the country was fairly alive with que
rillas. she had occasion to take some
valuable goods with her on trip she

was making, and put them on her
horse, back OF her. When she had
gone some distance in the woods she
heardea squad of guerillas approach
ing, and knowing her goods would
not be safe for II moment, she sErad
died her horse, man fashion, and
throwing her long skirt over the
packages behind her, completely con-
cealed it. When the guerillas rode
up she was unable to guess whether
they belonged to the North or the
South-tlieir uniform being no solu-
ton whatever. She determined, if
questioned, to play bluff game with
them, and she soon had chance to
exercise her wit. 'Hellow called out
one of the guerillas. "Hellow she
returned. "What side are You on 2"
he challenged. She laughed a good
laugh at him as she replied, kicking
out her feet, "On both sides, of course;
can't you see?' This brought roar
from the whole squad, and they be-
gan to banter her in her own fashion.
(Which side is your old man on 2"
asked one of them. "He's on Meth
er side" she laughed; "he's on his
back, and has beea for years." Such
wit saved her, and they let her pass
on unmolested.
