The frivolity of woman as wen as her
mental inferiority is illustrated, says the
Boston Transcript. is an incident re-
ported in the New York newspapers, as
follows:
Mrs Susannah Taylor, in the Essex
Market Court, charged her husband with
having called her vile names, struck her
in the face and put her into the street.
He was fined go. The prisoner went
through his pockets and pulled out

"Well, you'll have to pay the whole"
said the Judge. "Get it from your wife.
You've beaten her, but like most wives
she'll, no doubt, take pity on you. "
Taylor, led toward the prison, was met
by his wife, who handed him $5.
II can't bear to see him locked up" she
said, her eyes filed with tears. Taylor
took the money rudely, paid his fine,
and then said to her, roughly: "This is
the last time you'll SEQ me. I'll take
good care to leave the city and You to.

child who accompanied her to her breast
and kissed it tenderly, but uttered no
protest against her husbands latest act
of unkindness.

How She Kept Him at Home.

heard good story the other day
about venerable ex-member of Con-
gress from Pennsylvania, who has been
married twice, and has for his second
wife a lively young lady who is extrem-
ely fond of social gayeties. Not long
ago she made an engagement to accom-
pany ayoung naval officer to one of the
fashionable balls, and told her husband
she was going, but neglecting to say
that she had secured an escort. He APP
peared to be pleased and said that he
would accompany her. This was more
than she had bargained for, and she re-
sorted to various eXpedients to get him
to stay at home. The more reasons she
gave, the more he was determined to go.
Things were getting desperate when Q
bright idea struck her. She took the
old gentleman false teeth and hid them,
and when the evening came he was still
without those necessary .adjuncts to
mastication. He wondered and raved,
and raved and wondered, but it was
no use, he couldn't find them, and final
ly was obliged to remain at home, while
his wife tripped gaily to her carriage,
and spent most delightful evening

Mark Twain.

Mark Twain, the renowned archaolo-
gist, poet and astronomer, is lineal
descendent of the celebrated Twain who
were made one flesh. He was born on
Plymouth Rock, April /, 1928, on a re-
markably cold morning, and the admin
istratriX of the camphor and red flannel
department afterwards stated that he
was the most remarkable baby she had
ever seen. AT the early age of seven,
Mark-for so he was cruelty christened
was already addicted to science, and
his discovery, made one year later, that
a spring clothes-pin artistically applied
to the continuation of cat would create
in that somnolent animal desire for
vigorous foreign travel is still used by
the aborigines of Connecticut and Mas
sachusetts. When he was nineteen,
Mark went through college. He en-
tered the front door, turpentined the
rector's favorite cat, and graduated the
same evening over the fence. He then
started for California, Milwaukee and
other remote confines of the earth, and
began those remarkable series of truth
full anecdotes for which he is now SO
justly famed. AS an archeologist, how
collection of Pompeiian, Sanscrit, Egypt,
ian, and early Greek jokes, now in pos
ession of Osgood & Co., of Boston, is
considered the most complete in the
world. Some envious critics have
claimed that most of these were painfully
carved by Mark himself, and the bal
ance composed of heterogeneous and
unrelated parts, but there seems to be
40 reasonable doubt that they are all
genuine antiques.
Personally, Mr.. Twain is remarka-
bly, well preserved man. He is short,
forid and very corpulent, laughs inces-
sanity, andis rapid and brilliant speak
er. His essay on ''Draw Poker in Amer-
lcan Politics" is conceded to be a mas
terly treatise on political economy,
while his poem entitled 1.-The Frog Down
by Weight of Shot, will hold its place
as one of the most pathetic in the Ian
guage.-Life.
