Father of the Grip Your best plan is
to start to bed the next time George calls,
the same as usual. Let your boots drop SO
he will be sure to hear them. Then cock
yourself up in an arm chair with pitcher
of lemonade and wait. The best view Of
the comet is to be had about2 A.. NJ. At
that hour walk quietly out on the front
porch. George will try to hustle the girl
off his knee. You don't want to let on that
you noticed this at all, but just say that
you have long noticed their affection for
each other, and while Mary has always been
the family pet, you know that some time
she must leave the old homestead, and sew
Ell the ties that bind her to . mothers love
and fathers watchful care. IF the man
can successfully get away on this kind Of
talk let him go. He is certainly to become
pirate or something like that, and you
wouldn't want him in your family.

His Second Choice,

"Hester!" exclaimed Aunt Susan, ceas--
and sitting upright. .'Do a you know s what
your husband will do when you are dead?''
''What do you mean?" was the startled
reply. 3@. 1S
He will marry the sweetest tempered
girl he can find.
oh, auntie! Hester began.
Don't interrupt me until I've finished,
said Aunt Susan, leaning back and taking
up her knitting. She may not be as pref
ty as you are, but she will be good natured.
She may not be as good a housekeeper as
you are; in fact, think not, but she will
De good-natured. She may not even love
him as well as you do, but she will be good
natured."
Why, auntie-''
That isn't all, continued Aunt Susan.
Every day you live you are making your
husband more and more in love with that
good natured woman, who may take your
place some day. After Mr.. and Mrs. Har-
rlson left you the other night, the only re-
mark he made about them was; she is a
sweet woman

That isn't ALL" composedly continued
Aunt Susan. day your husband was

would have thrown the peaches out of the
window. To- day you screwed up your face

pocket book in the lower outside over Goat
pocket to take to the bank for deposit. But
being somewhat the worse for liquor, he
sat down by the Office stove, fell asleep,
and the pocket book dropped to the floor.
He awoke in half an hour and hurried to
the bank. Arriving there he found no
pocket-b book. It was 8 o'clock. He went
back to the store, made inquiries, and was
told that Stonington had been seen to rush
out of the store very excitedly with the
pocket book in his hand, and had not been
seen since. So
general search was made for the clerk,
but he could not be found. He was, how
ever, traced to the railroad depot; hence
came the application for the warrant.
The facts were, the clerk entering the
Office after the old man left, found the
pocket book on the floor, guessed in min
ute what had happened, and rushed after
the merchant, but could not find him. A
Telegraph boy met him on the street with a
despatch informing him that his mother
was dying, and that if he wished to see her
alive he must take the next train.
He had only Q few moments in which ia
catch it, SO he scrawled q few lines to the
old merchant, explaining all the circum-
stances and gave the note to the boy who
promised to deliver it without delay. but
never delivered it at all. The clerk jumped
on the train, taking his pocket-book, Of
course.
The sickness and death of his mother had
detained him at his country home until he
was sent for by me, when he lost no time il
coming back, and then and there returned
the pocket book and it's contents intact.
AS they were all in the same boat, no one
Of them could reproach the other, so there
was general forgiveness. Husband and
wife kissed and made up; the young seam.
stress was discharged with a cordial certi6.
cate of good character. The mutual doc.
tors bill was paid by the husband withou
demur or comment, and by the merchan
the young clerk was literally furnished
with capital to go west and start in business
for himself, which he did and prosperec
and married.
The scandal was hushed up-nota breath
of it ever transpired to the general public
and husband aud wife showed the liyelies
gratitude to me for my pains in the matter
whenever and wherever they met me-b,
cutting me dead.

A NEW YORK LOVE SONG.

From the Independent.
love you, Love, for good or i'll,
As brown bees love sweet honey;
love you, love, sun, heart, and will,
For s0mber skies or sunny;
And yet pause, falter still,
For oh! one thought one doubt doth thrill
My darling have you money?
love you, Love; I love you, Love;
But oh! you must have money
A sweet rose is rose, my Love;
Yet it holds no honey.
The busy bee he will not stay,
But humnning airs he HES away,
To find rose with honey.
CHoRus-I love you, Love; love you, Love;
But oh! you must have money.

AMERICAN competition-to the British consumer a boon-by the British pro- ducer has hitherto been regarded as an unmitigated curse. A new field of enter prise has, however, been opened by the indefatigable American, in which he comes in contact with no English rivals. We are promised large importation of oranges from Florida, which, it is assert ed, are so much superior to those of Spain and Portugal that they will speed fly monopolize the market A trial box of Florida oranges, dispatched from Jacksonville, Fla, to London, arrived in prime condition after journey of three weeks. Only three oranges were dam- aged en route. The experiment is likely to be repeated on a larger scale, and be fore long it is quite possible a thriving fruit trade may spring up between England and the Southern States. The supply of oranges in Florida is almost inexhaustible; their quality is said to be much finer than those from the Mediter- ranean, and if once the trade WIS estab- lsihed the time of transit would be mate rially reduced.
