That Fetched Him.


Not many days ago handsome
young lady entered the studio of one OF
tie leading photographers in Madrid to
have her likeness taken. After placing
he lady in position, the artist busted
himself with the camera. When all
was in readiness fort the operation, what
was his anIazement 10 find, on glanc.
ing round, that his lair customer was
holding pistol 20 her temple! WHAT
are YOU doing?" he eXcitedly cried {;
''you will ruin my business, besides
sporting your pretty face Calmly
smiling, the lady replied: 81 have not
the remotest idea of committing sucl q
piece of barbarity, but | may as well
tell you that my sweetheart has de.
serted me, and that | want to send him
my Likeness in this position, intimating
10 him at the same time that shall pull
the trigger if he does not return to me
at oncew The photographer had no
difficulty in complying with the lady's
wishes, and few weeks afterwards he
had the satisfaction of taking the por-
traits of a young married couple, though
without the revolver, which the hus-
band had probably placed out OF harms
reach.

AsuIteraIion OF F-euch wines.

The wine merchants OF Paris held u
meeting the other day 10 protest against
the action Of the government in max
ing public tue analysis of certain
fabricated wines, and against tue Ameri-
can cOnsuls for drawing up reports on
the same subec. Their good people
are DESTROYS of being left to poison the
public in peace aud after their own
fashion. How pernicious some OF
their merchandise really il may be
learned from recent experience Of
the well-known journalist Aurelian
Schon. A dish Of kidneys with white
wine sauce was served 20 him at his
own table the other day. No sooner
had he swallowed few mouthfulls
than lips, tongue and palate were all in
a flame. He sent for the cook and
asked her what she had put in the
sauce. She replied that she had used
rart of a bottle CT cheap Ohsblis which
She mad bought at wine shop, and she
produced the balSempsied bottle. NJ.
Scholt poured ont and tasted sOnfe Of
its contents, which so berned his mouth
that he carried off the remainder to a
chemist to be analysed. The so-called
white wine proved. to be nothing but
water, favored with 0 strong dose Of
sulphuric acid.

Had Thrown Out Hints.

A subscriber sends up the following,
which he alleges occurred recently on
the line Of the Central railroad. We
will not vouch for the truthfulness Of its
location or the correctness of the incl

nature that we publish 1t:
When q Georgia father found out
that his son John was sparkling a GER
tain farmers daughter for a year or
more without settling any question, he
called him out behind the stack and
said TO him:

"And docs she love yOu?'
"That's what dunno, and I'm 'fraid
TO ask her"
"Well, you'd better throw out few
hints tonight and find out. It's no
use wearing out boot leather unless you
are going to marry her"
That night at ten o'clock John came
home Il wreck. His face was all
scratched up, his ear was bleeding, his
nat gone, and his back was covered
wSh mud.

matter" exclaimed the old man, lay
