HOW SHE FIXED TRE SOFA.

/ Eulaile MCKNIGHT sat silently by the
drawing .ooc window Of her fathers pal.
atial residence watching the snow.ladsn
clouds as they piled slowly up in the
Western horizon, burying in their cold
bosom the golden -browed sun that earst-
while CLEANED brightly forth upon the
bleak surface Of the storm beaten earth.
Heigo," sighed the girl YEARLY as
she raised her right foot and languidly
scratched her left ankle-a small and
prettily-turned one, without sign of curb,
ringbone and SPAWN. Rupert will not
come to-day. l shall not feel his strong
| arms around me, taste the nectar of his
lips in a pulsing, passionate kiss, nor
quaff the aroma of his Cedar Rum.copper.
distilled-two-d -drinks-for- -a-quarter breath.
Perhaps he does not love me. Sometimes
in the long, still, stem winding watches
OF the night, awake suddenly with the
thought that he is not true to me, that
some naughty beauty over on the West
Side has won his heart, leaving me only
the liver and other digestive organs But
it cannot, must not be. Without the
bacon light of his love my life would be
starless blank--a mere chaos. No,
will not doubt him. will not rack my
soul with the thought that he could be
untrue to me,"-and with these words
the girl stepped into the conservatory,
plucked blush-rose, and, placing it in
her nut-brown hair, walked slowly to her
boudoir.
Seating herself on damask covered
fauteuil, she touched bell that stood on
a table near by, and scarcely had its sill
| very tinkle ceased to he heard, when
Nanetta Mcclure, her femme de chambre,
pushed aside the damask curtains that
hid from view an alcove and entered the
room.
"Give me my volume of Tennyson's
POEMS, Nannette," said Eulaile. The
book was handed to her--an elegant
bound work. Rising slowly, Eulaile
placed the book under one corner of the
fauteuil, and saying to herself, "Well,
guess have fixed that pesky, short.
legged sofa now," lay quietly down and
was soon wrapped in the sweet slumber
of innocent maidenhood.
Such is the power of poetry. Il From

A locomotive in which neither wood
nor coal will be burned is now in process
of construction at the Grant Locomotive
Works at Patterson, N. J. In reality
the fuel to be used is water which is de-
composed in associotion with carbon, for
ming readily combustible gases of which
hydrogen is chief. The method of de-
composing water at a comparatively low
temperature invented by DR.. Charles
Holland has been turned to practical use
in heaters and in making Illuminating
gas. Its first use in motor was in q
common coal-burning locomotive on the
Long Island Railroad a year ago, and in
May last at Flatbush. These expert
ments We're considered successful. But
certain disadvantages were met from the
fact that the locomotive was intended to
burn coal. Therefore the locomotive be-
ing built at Patterson possesses some
striking novelties in its internal arrange
mems to allow the full utilization of the
heat from the new fuel.

Recently Dell Wright, Of Otsego county,

forced into the marriage by Mr.. Wright and
his friends, ana IN lees than an hour after
| the ceremony WAS performed The young bride
struck out for her fathers house, declaring
that she never would live with her husband.
/ The husband WAS naturally much chsgrned
1T the prospective failure of his welded Ire
and sought legal advice from IN attorney al
Gaylord. After duly considering the case
tho attorney---Jim Andrews by name
ADV ,ed the husband to replevn the
Maynard wife. Accordingly the two
men proceeded to a justice of the
peace, where Andrews filed out the neces-
sary blanks The husband made oath 10
them, swearing among Other things that the
young lady was Of tho value of 500 and
did not exceed that value, tho proper goods,
chattela and property Of " I Wright, the
plaintiff in tho suit; that she was uSlswtully
detained from his possession By A, NJ.

Tor any tax, assessment or Zine, etc, etc. &C
cording to the usual form for sfiidavils 10
the replovin of property. The justice issued
bis writ and it was delivered to the under
sheriff Of the county, who at once proceeded
10 the fathers house, where no found the
chattel described in his writ Of replevn.
The officer. commanded Mr.. Randolph
"in tho name of the county of
0tsego, Mich, by virtue Of tho office
of UNDERESTIMATE thereof, to surrender the
wife Of Dell Wright" Alter considerable

and her fAthor, the officer ''seiand tho prop

Wright, twenty miles distant from where he
made the seizure aud received his feea,
amounting to SIS. Whereupon Mrs.
Wright informed her better half that she

home, and started sgsin for her fathers
house on foot. Sha was recspturei ON the
