A few young friends, that sister
among them, were misch'evo"s
enough to say, on the day Of the we'd
ding, that Agatha-'Ag, as they per-
sisted in calling her most of the time
knew very we'll, when she called
on Mr.. Brown, that those people were
in no way related to her, but just
went on love-making adventure.
A slander, of course, and they
knew it. No young lady ever made
a more honest blunder, or q more
lucky one; for the young man. whose
first introduction was that earnest
and affectionate kiss, proved to be a
worthy and faithful husband. Aga
tina could not have found one who
would have suited her better if she
had looked the whole continent oyer.

SalutatOry.

Dear parents and friends, we are
pleased to see you here this evening
and extend you a hearty welcome to
this our first commencement. One
short year has not yet completed it's
circuit, since our worthy Principal,
prompted by the desire to promote
the higher education of our sex, es-
tablished this Female Seminary
With honest and becoming pride, We
view the monument that is being
reared, monument not of marble or
bronze reared upon granite base 81
lently referring to departed hero or
memorable event, but living, breath
ing, speaking monument. This mon
ument is her influence, virtue and
truth is its base, usefulness it's shaft,
and the true end Of being it's capitol.
The sphere of woman as indicated by
nature, reason, and the word of God,
within this Seminary are recognized
and her tuition is wisely adapted to
promote the development Of those
faculties of mind and heart, and the
cultivation Of those personal graces
which constitute the true and useful
woman and which prepare our sex
for the faithful performance of all
those duties that await US in life.
To promote our highest we'll being,
the highes. well-being Of society and
mankind, is her great aim and in this
she is rearing monument that now
begins to live. beathe and speak and
which will live when monuments Of
marble and bronze have been broken,
monument which will be reared in
the minds and hearts Of one genera
ton after another. as long as mind
will influence mind on down to latest
time even to that period, when seas
shall waste and skies in smoke decay
and even then it will live on in the
spirit world, as long as the cycles Of
eternity shall roll.
Such, dear parents and friends, IS
the aim of our Seminary, such are
the influences she has begun to exert.
In inviting your attention to the
exercises that mark our first COIN
mcnccment, we hope your cxpecta-
tons are not raised too high, for we
have not endeayored to awaken at
this time the emotions Of sublimity,
but following that molcsty Which ~
the Jewel Of our sex, we shall seek
only to please and if we Succe' d IN
this We shall have accomplished our
end.
We hope you will consider the EN-
barrassment Of the position We occu~
py tonight, for onr tnition has hot
been for the stage.
We therefore ask that yonr cr.ti-
cism may not be severe and that our
errors may be excused, and we viii
promise that after this evening has
passed, in the sphere Of home, the So
cial circle and in the theatle of the
heart, which is the aren't npon which
we hope to act, We Will do the very
best We can.

to lunch, Miss Williams went dowr
to the store soon after the visito'
came in, and told him the whole

Frank. We are just delighted with

Frank Brown had never heard O

entering the hall, the young man
marched boldly in, and having been
duly announced, said:

At the same time-for the whole

Kicked Him. But Could Not Insult
Him.

That man to whom you sent me
lnsulted me, said young drummer
who had only been a few months in
the business, to his trainer in large
house in this city.
Insulted you, reiterated the trainer
with an expression of contempt al
most sufficient to sink the novice into
the floor.
Were you never insulted? timidly
responded the young man.
Never, sir; not even during thu
period of my novitiate, which passed
through very rapidly, and have
been twenty years in the business.
That is very strange" said the no
vice, skeptically.
Very strange if you don't under
stand it, ferociously observed the ole
drummer. l have been often badly

Ingersoll and the Guide.

The Hon. Chauncey M. Depew at a
lecture in New York told the follow

to st. Paul's in London.
When we came to the statue and
sarcophagus of the Duke of yelling
ton, asked the guide if he remem-
bered Colonel Bob Ingersoll, and he
answered rucfnlly that he did. When
Colonel Ingersoll visited st. PauPs
the guide (pointing out the statue)
said, with dignified solemnity "That
sir, is the monument of the Duke.
"What duke p asked Colonel Bob.
"All the dukes are intimate friends of
mine."
"The Iron Duke" replied the guide
"the great Duke of Wellington, sir:
his body is inclosed in two metallic
cofiins, a rosewood casket and stone
sarcophagus."
At this Bob struck the guide on the
breast with such ardor that he was
knocked six feet away, and exclaimed.
sold man, you have got him. If
he ever gets out cable at my expense

feelings, and not play any jokes on
him while he is feeling so bad over
his being swindled."
80, / don't know about that. l
think when a man is in trouble, if he
has a good little boy to take his mind
from his troubles, and gets him mad
at something else, it rests him. Last
night we had hot maple syrup and
biscuit for supper, and pa had a
saucer full in front Of him,
Just steaming. / could see he was
thinking too much about his mining
stock, and / thought if there was any
thing could do to take his mind of
of il, and place it on something else,
would be doing a kindness that
would be appreciated, l sat on the
right of pa, and when he wasn't look
ing / pulled the table cloth so the
saucer of red hot maple syrup
dropped off in his lap. Well, you'd
didc to see how quick his thoughts
turned from his financial troubles to
his physical misfortuncs. There was
about pint of hot syrup, and it went
all over his lap, and you know how
melted maple sugar is, and how it
sort of clings to anything. Pa
jumped up and grabbed hold of his
pants legs to pull them away from
hisself, and he danced around and
told ma to turn the hose on him, and
then he took pitcher of ice water
and poured it down his pants, and he
said the condemned old table was
getting so rickety that saucer
wouldn't stay ON it, and ! told pa if
he would put some tar OH his legs,
the same kind that he told me to put
on my lip to make my moustache
grow, the syrup wouldn't burn so,
and then he cnffed me, and think he
felt better. 1t is great thing to get
mans mind of his troubles, but
where a man hasn't got any mind
like you, for instance"
At this point the grocery man
picked up a fire poker, and the boy
went out in hurry, and hung up
sign in front of the grocery: Cash
paid for fat Dogs"
