was, What can Hannah think OF such q
piece OF business y
1t was very miserable young man who
sat on the green rep sofa in the Bankers
parlor at last, waiting for Hannahs coming
At last firm step crossed the sill, and he
booked up. Hannah, in becoming buff
muslin, with an amber comb in her blacl
hair, stood before him. She laughed and
showed her white teeth
How do you do, Josiah ~ she said.
"What is this dreadful mistake that ma has
been making now? Don't blame her.
She'll be dreadfully ashamed of 1t, l know.
The idea We might be cousins, or almost
brother and sister Oh, what would you
have done, Josiah, if had believed That You
came here to-day to make an offer ~
Hannah looked very bright and natty.
Her cheeks were pink and her eyes shone
Afterward her mother said that Josiah must
have been inspired to do as well as he did,
but 1t was very natural sort of inspiration
What he answered was this, though he
had not been able TO think what he should
say as he came along
81 wish to goodness you had believed it,
Hannah for now I shall have to do it all
over again, and maybe get the mitten."
" It's almost too dreadful 10 joke about,
after all, " said Hannah. Ma will be so
ashamed. | ann
I'm not joking now anyhow" said
Josiah. +" Hannah Barker, | haven't quite
as much brass and impudence as your
mother thought Ind, but have enough to
get ON with, after all. always have loved
you, but never could see that you liked
me. viii sou try to? Win you marry me !?
Don't say no, Hannah, or shall think il il
out of revenge for my mistake"
1t was mothers mistake" said Hannah.
Don't make one now, Josiah. There
ought to be a great deal of love before
people marry
There 5 on my eide" said JOSIAH.
He had risen from the sofa, and they
stood looking at each other now. They sat
down in two chairs. one on each side of the
window The moon was rising over ths
hills. The shaded lamp was not obtrusivel
After while Josiah took Hannahs hand
Then his arm stole about her waist.
1t was twelve o'clock when he got hons,
but his mother was sitting up for him. She
looked at him inquiringly as he began to
wind the clock furiously. When he had
finished he went toward the stairs, but half
way up paused moment to say:
Mother, guess you'll have to put up
with Sarah Smiley for month. 1t will take
Hannah as long as that to get ready, she
says l suppose she'll want to mako a silk
dress and some other things"
But from these words it was plain to Mrs
Conner that Hannah Barker had really had
her offer. Mary Kylo Dallas.

CUSTOMS OF THE LAST CENTURY.

A Philadelphia gentleman OF the last Gen.
means, wore a three-cornered cooked hat
heavily laced, His hair was done up in O
cue, and its natural shade concealed by
profusion of powder. His coat was light
colored, with diminutive cape, marvelously
long back, and silver -Attons engraved with
the letters of his name. His small clothes
came scarcely to his knees; his lor1 stock.
ings were striped, his shoes pointed and
adorned with huge buckles his vest had
flap pockets his cuffs were loaded with lead.
When he bowed to the damsels
that passed him, he took half the sidewalk
as he fourished his cane and scraped his
foot. The historian proceeds to convince
us that the dress of the lady, as she gravely
returned his salutation aud courtesied nearly
to the earth, would seem no less strange TO
MS. "Those were the days Of gorgeous
brocades and tatfetas,, luxuriantly displayed
over cumbrous hoops, which, aattened
before and behind, stood out for two feet on
each side of tower-built hats, adorned
with tall feathers OF calash and musk
melon bonnets Of high wooden heels fanci-
fully cut of gowns without fronts of fine
satin petticoats, and OF implanted teeth"
It appears that in 1884 this curious custom
Of transferring teeth from one womans jaw

Philadelphia. In an advertisement yet OK.

KENTUCKY GENTLEMAN.

A gentleman is a mysterious being down
in Kentucky. I've often heard Kentuckians
say: "By Cad, sab, I'm gentleman !"
but I never knew what it meant till to-day.
The clerk at the Kentucky hotel met the
passengers at the cars. He was soliciting
customers for the hotel. He was ponder
GUS man, and a handsome man, too, as are
all Kentuckians. He did not shout rudely,
as do Northern porters:
"Burnett House! Carriage!"
"Palmer House Free bus !"
He simply walked up as If you were the
guest of the city, and remarked:
"Sah, I should be glad to show you to
hotel, sab, the finest in the city-the Palace,
sahl TIM gentleman, sab, and ! will treat
You right"

POETRY
NEAR SUNSET.

Sometimes, from fields grown sadls strange
Since robins 1le1, by woodland path,
Straight up the valley range
TO reap the days poor aftermath.
The spiders spin across my face;
The startled partridge, fleeing, makes
A sudden silence in the place
The rasping cricket scarcely breaks
Iclimo the hill the top draws nigh
The path grows light again, ana ioi
The pale new moon, the crimson sky,
The village on the plain selowi
And weary huskers, binding long
On dusky slopes, still bind by night.
While, Ike the murmur OF a song,
Their talk Is blown across the height.
