HUMOR OF TIE DAY.

What pain is most agreeable to q
burglar? Window-pane.
"The sassyest man ever met, " says
Josh Billings, is henpecked hus-
band when he is away from home"
It is pleasant to remember that no
an hour passes in the increasing march
of time that there is not half dressed
man somewhere on the face Of the earth
calling for shirt. Seatigsel.
A dollar-store pin young man,
heart full of sin young man,
A stand-on-the-corner-y
Looking -forlOrn-ery,
Tobacco -stained-chin young man.
Wade 0scGr, IN NOrristoton Herald.
s'Does our talk disturb you" said
one of company of talkative ladies to
an old gentlemen sitting in 8 railroad
station the other afternoon. mo,
ma'am," was the naive reply tive
been married nigh on to forty years. -
Hartford Times.
"Why did you send me that almanac
Augustus?" asked Angelina. Because,
darling" answered Augustus, as he
vainly strove to twist the few downy
sprouts upon his upper lip into curl,
because, darling, / wished you TO ser
lect date for our--the, aw-cere-
mony. "Oh, 1 seer' she said; then,
smiling bewitching smile, she muir
INJURED: Gall it the first of April"
Augustus will some day succeed in rails
ing mustache, but he goes to see An
gelina no more.--S0merUitie Journal.
The SteubenviIle Herald explains
how the young man was a little too
previous in the following fashion: He
sat at her feetin quiet peace. Helooked
into her face ard said softly: ''Ah, dear,
could sit here forever" "Could you,
love% answered she. ''Yes, sweet"
"You are quite sure you could, dar-
ling?' ST know it, my own" ''Very
well, then, you sit there, for lave an
engagement to go out with young Mr..
Fitzspooner and I won't be back this
evening. Turn down the gas and fasten
the night-latch when you go away. TIA,
ia, dear" And she went out.

Let it be soon Life was not made to long
For distant hours of dim futurity.
Thy presence soothes me like some far-of
song.
oh, where my heart has rested let il lie;
Hope is the morning; love the afternoon.
Let it be soona
Let it be soon The treasured daylight dies,
And changes sadly 10 The chill Of night.
But summer reigns forever in thine eyes,
And at thy touch grief stealeth out Of sight,
After sad years Of longing love must swoon.
Let 1t be soon
--CTene1G Scott.

Fashion Notes.

Fu8n1On N0IeBs
Buff tints are revived.
New beiges are striped.
Ombre fabrics are out of style.
Chene silks are coming into favor.
Scarf rings are now worn by ladies.
Velvet ribbon is seen on new bonets.
Silk-muslin bows are worn at the
throat.
Very little jewelry is worn in the
street.
Half-mantles OF velvet or moire are
worn.
Dark-green bonnets have pale-blue
plurnes, and garnet bonnets have pink
plumes.
White chudda dresses for the house
are made in tailor fsshions-simple and
severe
Dark straw hats, with gloves and
hosiery to match, are announced for next
summer.
Sulphur yellow, with brown, is a
stylish combination for dresses and
bonnets.
Dolly Warden lives again in new
polonaise, a novel neekerchief, and a
daintily shaped dancing shoe.
In spring costumes there is tenden-
cy to use lengthwise tucks in clusters in
the place Of kilt plaitings and shirrings
Watered silks are combined with
cashmere, surah and plush in the
French costumes imported for misses
and little girls.
Oper work, wheel, and Kensington
embroidery, in Hamburg edgings and
Insertions, form the bosom trimmings of
domestic chemises.
Pale rose and pure white dresses,
with silver and pearl accessories, form
the faVorite evening toilet for young la
dies of high fashion.
Jerseys are brought out with a lace
iuffle at the bottom, and lace bretelles
on each side of the front, which is now
cut open and buttoned up.
Embroidered India muslin ball
dresses are worn over bright satin
skirts with the Camargo waist of tie
same material as the skirt.
Mousquetaire gloves are the most
popular, but ladies of good taste wear
buttoned or laced gloves, if more be-
coming to their hands and arms.
Black, blue and lemon-eolored pocket
handkerchiefs of sheer linen, embroi-
dered with contrasting colors, are among
the eccentric novelties lately imported.
Laco is the most fashionable, as we'll
as the most elegant and most econom-
ical trimming for all costumes, wraps
and toilets light enough to admit of its
use.
Petticoats are profusely trimmed with
needleWork flowers, resembling the
needle wrought bands that border the
new nuns veilings, ginghams and ba-
tistes.
For second cloaks, are inexpensive
wraps of the English homespun cloths,
in dark brown colors, with red threads
at intervals, or else Of green cloth with
mustard yellow threads.
In many garments the atyle is en-
hanced by having all the trimming
placed lengthwise, both in front and
back, rather than to shorten the ap.
pearance Of the wearer by a crossWise
border of great breadth.
Many satin grounds with colored
stripes are prepared for trimming, but
their novelty is the boldness of their
coloring. Imagine grenat with olive
stripes, sea green with bronze, Iilleul
and rose porcelain blue With rose and
roseda.

lFrom the Breeders Gazette


Some three years ago q Boston type
setter went to Kansas, with ST. 500 and
the consumption. Finding his way to a
cattle-ranch, he asked for board and
lodging, and was told that sc We don't
keep boarding house here. Every man
waits upon himself, and when his turn
comes he cooks for all hands, for one
week. Any man who grumbles about
the cooking must at once assume the
duties of the then operating cook, and
must serve the unfinished term of the
latter, In addition to the week regularly
belonging to the grumbler. If you want
to rough it with us, and pay your share
of the cost of the provisions, just con-
slider yourself at home" A few weeks
later, part of that 81, 500 went 10 pay
for ifty-two COWS, at 1913 per head, each
with calf at foot, and $75 paid for two
bulls. A year ago this faded typo
owned forty-fve COWS, worth $26 per
head, each with calf beside her, and
had sold forty-eight 2-year-olds at $26,
and had added forty-six pounds to the
weight of his previously emaciated cor

Assafetida and Wolves.

lFrom Adventures in the Western Wilderness
Magoffin had rubbed his boots with
assaf@tida and walked on with gun
ready, In full expectation Of plenty OF
game. He soon saw huge wolf trotSing
along the path he had Just trayersed,
with its nose to the ground. 4 mOmeut
after another wolf and then third were
seen pursuing the same course some dis
lance behind.
Joe became uneasy. His first impulse
was to scamper forward and Join his
companions, but when he thought of
the jeers and jests he should meet, he
resolved to stand his ground. When
the foremost wolf had approached within
thirty PAGES of him, he leveled his mus
ket and fired. The wolf leaped up and
sank dying in the snow.
"Well, I've foored you, anyhow, +"
said Joe, and he hurriedly reloaded his
gun. But the other wolves, so far from
being alarmed at the fate of their COM
rade, seemed to quicken their pace to-
wards Joe.
'Confound 'em There's too many
of en-" he muttered, as he saw several
others advancing towards him.
"But I'll settle your account - he
continued, taking aim at the foremost
and killing him in his tracks. Still the
others advanced. Joe had no time to
load his gun again.
"pn get you out of this, he conclud-
ed, starting forward OH a run. Horrors |!
There were two huge wolves just ahead
of him-and they were coming to meet
him.
IN run back again, !" muttered Joe;
but by the time he had token forty steps
the animals, and was glad to climb a
tree. After reaching large limb that
put out from the trunk some fifteen feet
above the snow, he paused and painting
ly surveyed his assailants. There were
now no less than twenty wolves in sight,
and several were at the foot of the tree
yelplng at him.
Joe was SO frightened that he loaded
his gun twice before he knew what he
was about, and then he dared not fire it
for fear it would kick him off the tree.
He had no screw on his ramrod to draw
the extra charge, and there was nothing
to do but sit still and count the wolves
and reproach the man who told him to
put assafetida on his boots.
At last he could endure it no longer,
and tying himself to the tree with a
stout leather string, he pointed his mus
ket at the crowd Of wolves below him
and fired into their very midst.
Fortunate it was for Joe that he had
tied himself to the tree. The recol of
his double-charged gun unseated him
from the limb he had rested on, and left
him dangling by one arm, his boots
within six feet of the surface of the
snow.
Help! Help!' he screamed, drawing
up his legs as the wolves darted under
him, swapping their teeth. "Help!
helpp' as they whirled round again, al
most laying hold of him.
His cry was heard and soon several
sharp reports sounded near, and four or
five wolves howled and fell. The rest
hesitated, their eyes glistening and fixed
on Joe's suspended boots.
"Quick quick for mercy's sake I
can't pull up my legs any MORE" cried
the frightened fellow.
Again the guns were discharged with
deadly effect, and the surviving wolves
ran off precipitately and disappeared
among the bushes.
