NEARLY KISSED THEMSELVES


Oscillation is unquestionably
pleasing pursuit. 1t has been recog-
nized as such from time immemoIial,
by generations unnumbered of lovers,
poets and even philosophers. There
are doubtless at the present moment in
this as in other countries many enam-
ored SWANS who ask no better than to
bepermitted to imprint "ten thousand
KISSES" one after another, upon the lips
of the damsels on whom they have be-
however, esteem themselves fortunate
if their opportunities in this direction
are somewhat limited, as the following
true story will show: At an evening
party in Kelkelm few weeks ago the
conversation happened to turn upon
kissing, and the question arose how
many salutations Of this class could be
exchanged between two ardent lovers
within certain space of time. AS
usual, opinions differed, and the discus
sion waxed warm. Presently fiery
youth offered to bet anybody present
the German equivalent of q ten-pound
note that he and his betrOthed would
kiss one another ten thousand times
within ten hours, provided they were
permitted to partRke of some slight re-
freshment at intervals of half an hour
during the performance. His wager
having been accepted and the money
posted, the affianced couple addressed
themselves to the achievement Of their
congenial task. At the expiration of
the first hour their account stood cred
tied with two thousand kisses During
the second they added another thous.
and. and during the third seven hum
dred and fifty to that number. Then,
pitiful to state, they both broke down.
The youths lips were stricken with
cramp and the maiden tainted away.
Later on in the evening she was compell-
edto take to her bed with sharp attack
of neuralgia. An even more distressing
result ensued from this surfeit of tender
endearment, for it led to the breaking
off, by mutual consent, of a hopeful
matrimonial engagement. Young low
ers should keep this sad tale in mind
and moderate their transports, for,
strange as it may seem, Dan Cupid him
self may be kissed to death. London

TO ACQUIRE.
By all means let the girls learn how
to cook. What right has girl to marry
and go into house of her own unless
she knows how to superintend every
branch of housekeeping, and she can
not properly superintend unless she has
some practical knowledge herself. Most
men marry without thinking whether
the woman of his choice is capable of
cooking him meal, and il is pity he
is so shortsighted, as his. health, his
cheerfulness, and indeed his success in
lifey depend in o very great degree upon
the kind of food he eats; in fact, the
whole household is Influenced by their
diet. Feed them on fried cakes, fried
viands, day after day. and they will
need medicine to make them well. A
man will take alcohol to counterfeit the
evil effects of such food. and the wife
and children must be physicked.
Let the girls have share in the house.
keeping at home before they marry let
each superintend some department by
turns. It need not occupy half the time
to see that the house has been properly
swept, busted aud put in order, or to
make dishes; that many young ladies
spend in reading novels that enervate
both mind and body and unfit them
for everyday life. Women do not, as
a general rule, get pale faces by doing
house-work. Their sedentary habits,
in overheated rooms, combined with ILL
chosen food, are to blame for bad health.
Our mothers used to pride themselves
on their housekeeping and fine needle
work. Why should not we ?-B0t. San.

WHAT THE CIRCUS DID.

We were a quiet and sober set,
Little accustomed to noise and fret,
Decent and modest at work or play,
And ,oh! SO proper in every way,
Before we went to the Circus!
Nobody had ever seen us 60 ~.
At all too fast, or at all too slow;
No matter how gayly we talked or sang,
We had never used word Of slang
Before we went to the Circus! =
We went to church, or we went to school,
By the very most orthodox kind Of rule;
For we were people of Dutch descent,
And rather phlegmatic of temperament,
: Until we went to the Circus!
Alas and alas! tits q woeful sight, sw
The way we are changed at the time write
Father is swaying in the breeze,
Hung by the toes from high trapeze,
Trying to copy the Circus!
The boys on their heads. with feet In air,
Are riding Wild horses on each high chair,
Or down on their backs on the sidewalk bric]
Are balancing tubs for a juggling trick;
The girls have painted tn cir hands and face
And got themselves up for an Indian race,
AS they saw them do at the Circus!
Mother high up on the table stands,
Swinging the baby with both her hands,
Swinging the baby with may rub,
And brandishing him like an Indian club!
While baby himself in a terrible fright,
Howls like Zulu from morn till night,
- Since We went to the Circus!
Alas and alas! can only say,
wishin the night, wish in the day, E
wish with my heart, wish with my head.
wish with my ears, which are nearly dead,
I wish with a sort of mute despair,
wish with shrek that would rend the air.
We had never gone to the Circus!

The atmosphere in readjuster officia
quarters at Richmond has not improved

The atmosphere in readjuster official
quarters at Richmond has not improved
since the flight, in defeat and humilia-
ton, of Mahone's legislature. Rather
it has grown more sulphurous, like
sulphuretted hydrogen, as though that
event had uncorked a bottle previously
kept carefully shut. The squabble over
the printing of Riddleberger's worth
less reputation bonds brings to light,
as will be seen from the paragraph we
print, some of the inside transactions OF
the late compeign. The syndicate who
pected to print the bonds were, il
seems, levied on in advance to aid the
cause by helping to pay the poll tax Of
the negroes. Raum's blackmail on fed
eral offlceholders was not sufficiently
productive, and other sources had to be
drawn on.
This is but the beginning of the de.
velopment. More to come Winchester
