Beautiful Work.

me ceiling of the saloon, kept at tbe
north east corner Of Sixth and VAIN,
streets by Frederick Heiss, has been been
painted in an old English Eastlake
style by Mr.. Samuel schultz. In tIa
centre of the ceiling is pretty piece Of
work, consisting of a square, which
contains Stork, dog and a South
American bird, The style is very odd
and in that oddity consists its beauty
1t is the first of this kind of work eve,
done IN this city, and is a great credit
to Mr.. Schultz, who is an excellent
painter, The f'reScoing is such that It
harlnonizes most efectually with The
paper with which the walls Of the room
are covered.

The Right Clothes for
Little Boys.

Little Boys.
Under the broad
roof of Oak Hall
there's no better
work done than ap.
pears in little boys
suits. 1t would, per-
haps, interest you,
it would certainly
profit you, if you
have a boy, to look
through the grades
of work, beginning
at a $3.50 suit and
going up to sl4.
There are but few
so low or so high.
Almost everybody
buys between ex-
treme prices.
At S. the clothes
begin to be good;
and they grow bet
ter as the price
grows bigger. No
body need grumble
at what So will buy;
and between s. and
$40, everything is
good enough. You
choose one rather
than another, be-
cause you like the
cloth or style bet
ter; and the diver
sity is SO great that
you may keep on
choosing as long as
you like. When
you come to the
higher prices you
find the finest OF
suitable cloths made
with all the care
that is bestowed on
the finest tailoring.
Oak Hall, too, is
a pleasanter place
to go than it ever
was before. New
paper, paint and
carpets will not.
S t an d for good
clothes ; but they.
help a cheerful as
pect, and very like
ly smooth the man
ners of our statesmen

Not a Casual Kiss.

Anxious girl-Yon say that a
young man kissed yon, ostensibly 10
though,less fun, but that you suspect
ed he loves you, because his lips
somehow didn't feel merely casual"
Well, you must trust your own in
stinct in matter so delicate as the
sentimental qnality of a kiss. Proba-
bly, you intend to convey that the kiss
was clingier, so to put it, than such
simple. touches Of the lips as consti-
tute unsentimental kisses. High
medical authority says that the lips
owe their extremely red color to the
thinness Of the covering membrane,
and their sensitivness to an abundant
supply of minute nervous fibres.
Thus, you see, ! am able to instruc.
you why lips are PASSIONS own dwell
ing place; but can | tell You exactly
the nature Of kiss which / not only
felt not, but didn't even see? Seri-
ously, my dear girl, ii the elbow has
begun to kiss in a way that doesn't
strike you as merely CASUAL" it is
time to check his advances until he
declares his intentions.- Elk.

How to Kiss a Lady.

The gentleman must be taller than
the lady he intends to kiss Take
her right hand in yours and draw her
gently to you pass yourlel hand over
her right shoulder, diagonally, down
across her back, under her left arm;
press her to your bosom, at the same
time she will throw her head back and
you have nothing else to do but to
lean a little forward and press your
lips to hers, and then the thing is
done. Don't make noise over it, as
if yoh were firing off shooting crackers,
nor bouncing down like hungry
hawk upon an innocent dove; but gent
ly fold the damsel IN your arms,
without smashing her standing collar
or spelling her curls, and by sweet
pressure upon her mouth, revel in the
blisSfulness oil your situation, without
Smaching your lips as you, would
over glass oil beer.
N. Blades should see that
these rules are strictly observed.

The Brave Drummer Boy.

{ In the war with France. previous to
the Revolution, an English drummer
boy, not more than fifteen years Of
age, having wandered from his camp
too near the enemy's lines, was seized
and brought before the French Com
manaer. On being asked who he was
by the General, he answered:
"a drummcrin the English service,
This not gaining credit, drum
was sent for and he was desired to
beat a couple of marches, which he
accordingly did. The Frenchman's
suspicion being, however not quite re-
moved, he desired the drum mer to
beat aretreat.
"a retreat, sir" said the youthful
Bri,on, II don't know what that is .
This answer SO pleased the French
officer that he dismissed the drummer
and wrote to his General commend
ing spirited behavior.
