SOME AMUSING INSTANCES OF As-I-yG GIRLS
FOR THEIR HANDS THROUGH LIFE.
Let Us suppose that TIC LADY had been out
during the evening before to n party. The
gentleman might say that she looks faticued.
On her rejoiuin., that this was a foolish
thought he will get an opportunity of saw
ing Not foolish, Emily; l feel too much
interest In you ta permit my own wishes to
run counter to your welfare" This is pro-
perly called tie magnificent style of BEGIN
ming. But very often the young lady is con-
sderate enough to assist her bashfui lover.
For instance, there was once a timid fellow
who was fond Of borrowing John Phmnfx's
jokes when she asked him how he felt, he
avenged himself according to the Phoenix
plan Of being very definite, and said he felt
''about eighty eight per cent" Indeed"
she said, with demuTe look, "are YOU never
going to par 2" And she got in her work
that evening. Another young man was say
ing, rs lie scratched a lncifer on the side Of
the house, Il like these houses with sanded
paint nice when you want tn strike a
match, you know" as that %" she
asked demurely 81 wish lived in house
with sanded paint, and then she looked
things unutterable. II he had asked "What
for? she would have hated him. Bat he
didn't. He took the hint, and the match was
struck then and there. This method of "civ-
ing hint" has been put POLITICALLY in this
way:
Young Frank, a bashful yet persistent swain,
Was very much in love with Mary Jane
One night she told him in her tenderest tone.
1t Is Eot good for man to be alone"
Said Frank, "Just So you darling little elf;
I've often thought of that same thing nyself.''
Then said the lass, while Frank was all agog,
You ought to buy yourself a terrier dog
What may be called physiological propo-
sal is Illustrated by the case of Miss Mary
Flynn and Mr.. Budd. The young lady-a
Boston girl, by the way-was studying med
icine and Mr. Budd was counting her One
evening while they were sitting together in
the parlor, Mr.. Budd was thinking how he
should manage to propose. Miss Flynn was
explaining certain physiological facts for
him.
"Do you know, " she said, "that thousands
Of persons are actually ignorant that they
smell with oliactory peduncle ?"
"MillOns Of EN-" replied Nj. Budd.
"And Aunt Mary wouldn't believe me
when l told her she couldn't wink without a
spbncter muscle p
How unreasonable -
'Why person cannot kiss without sphinc-
ter
Indeed -
81 know it is so ="
MAY / try If can ?"
20, Mr.. Budd, it is too bad for you TO
make light OF such a subject"
Then he tried it and while lie held her
hand she explained to him about tie mus
cles Of that portion Of the human body.
"'WHlie," whispered Mss Flynn, very
family.
"What, darling?"
'T can hear your heart beat"
at beats only for yOu, my angel"
And it sounds out OF order TIE ven
tricular contraction is not uniform"
:'Smail wonder tor that when It's bursting
for ioy."
You must Dut yourself under treatment
foT it. l will give you some medicine" ="

you please with it it'-BrOoklyn Ea7ts.
