A Strap Stops a Strike.

During the past few years strikes
have been a matter Of almost daily
occurrence and it is small wonder that
the young heads grasp the inspiration
aud Immediately put it into practical
use. The News gives a very good
illustration Of our meaning in the fol-
loving terse dialogue:

GIRLS DoN'T GET MARRIED
Girls. don't be in hurry to get mar
ried. If you are but sixteen, don't al
low such an idea to get into your head
for at least four years. Don't even run
the risk OF 1t by permitting any young
man to get as far as the proposing
point. Fight them of and make him
wait or 90 away TO somebody who Is
ready. Don't live under the impression
that YOU must accept the first love-sick
youth who proposes. lie patient de-
Iiberate, and sagaclous. There is a
world of happiness for you between
sixteen and twenty. The world would
be a dreary old waste if il were not Tor
the sweet faces OF young girls, with
their piquant sayings and mellln g
smiles. Your father has bought you
piano, an you have learned how 10
play after many long and wearisome

speak, and then one OF the boys went
and sat down by the conductor, who
was crying like a child, aud said. "Old
fIiend, oil of US have babies at home,
and not a one OF us would haye i0ked
YOU bad we known of your sorrow.
Forgive us old pard." The conductor
said il was all right, and be knew they
piied him, but it had almost broken
his heart TO have them talk so, and he
went 10 the baggage car to prepare 10
leave the train at the next station. AS
he left the train four large hearted
drummers. who locked as though they
loo, had been bereaved, shook hands
tenderly with the conductor. and bid
him good by, aud then went in the
car and agreed that they couldn't be
too careful about their leyitY, and their
thoughts were all the afternoon with
the stricken conductor aud his dead
baby. When the brakeman went
through the train with lis pale face and
took tickets the passengers knew
something had happened, and to every
question he said. THE conductors
baby is dead and he has gone back"
and then every passenger looked as
though 1t was funeral train, and a
hundred hearts felt sorry for their old
friend, and none moro go than the
hearts OF the drummers. At the tuner-
al there was bank of flowers that al
most covered the little coffin. which
came by express from two hundred
miles away, and the conductor will al
ways believe the flowers came from
the drummers. and he is right. [Gso.

A MERRY HEART.

'Tis well to have merry heart,
However short we stay;
There's wisdom In merry heart
What'er the word may say.
Philosophy may lift it's head
And nnd out many flaw,
But give me the philosophy
That's happy with straw.
II life brings us hsppiness-
II brings US, We are told,
What's hard to buy, though rich ones try
With all their heaps Of gold.
Then laugh away-let others say
Whst'er they will Of mirth;
Who laughs the most ma truly boast
He's got the wealth Of earth.
There's music in a merry laugh,
A moral beauty too;
II sho VS. the hearts an honest heart,
That's paid each man his due,
And lent share ofwhat's to spare
Despite Of VISIONS fears;
And.made the cneek less sorrow speak,
The eye weep fewer tears.

Character i'm Smoking.


It's twenty years, SAID cigar dealer,
now since l began 10 sell tobacco, and
in that time 1 have closely studied the
characters Of my patrons, forming my
conclusions from The kind Of company
they keep. l mean by the kind Of ci.
gars they smoke. ] can always tell.
An even tempered, quiet fellow never
goes 10 an extreme in choosing a to-
bacco; a nervous man wants something
strong and furious; a mild man, some-
thing that smokes and nothing more.
The same conditions run through chew
ing tobacco. Then there is a great
deal in the way men handle their ci-
gars. Very few eau smoke on one
side as well as on the other. Men
come 10 here every day who have been
smoking Tor thirty years, and if they
were to place cigar on the wrong
side of the mouth they would appear as
clumsy and green as a boy who was
trying bis first weed. The muscles of
the face become set 10 one position.
Any change requires a reorganization
of the face. So it amt By the way the
cigar ls embraced in the mouth that
you can estimate man.
If man smokes his cigar only
enough to keep it lighted, and rehshes
taking it from between his lips 10 cast
whirling curl Of blue smoke into the
air, set him down as an easy-going fell
low, who cares little for how the world
goes and no more for himself. He has
keen perceptions and delicate sensi-
bilIIies. He will not create trouble,
but is apt TO see it out when it is once
begun.
Beware oil The man who never releas-
es the cigar from the grip Of his teeth.
and is Indifferent Of whether 1t burns
or dies. He is cool, calculating, and
exacting. He is seldom energetic ply
siclally, but lives easily of of those
who perform the labor.
A man who smokes bit. rests bit,
and fumbles the cigar more or less, is
apt to be easily affected by circum-
stances. He may be energetic, careful,
generous and courageous, but be is
vaccillating aud liable to change on a
moments notice.
If the cigar goes out frequently the
man has a whole-soul disposition, is a
devil may-care sort Of fellow, with a
lively brain, glib tongue, and general
ly fine fund Of anecdotes aud yarns.
To hold half Of the cigar 10 the
mouth and smoke indifferently is a
lazy mans habit. They are generally
of little force and their characters are
not Of the higher strata.
A nervous man, or one under excit-
ing influences, lunbes bis cigar great
deal. He is a kind OF popinjay among
men.
Holding the cigar constantly be-
tween the teeth, chewing it occasional
ly. and not caring whether or not it
has been lighted at all, are characteris-
tics of men with the tenacity Of bull
dogs. They never forget anything and
never release hold.
A fop stands bis cigar on end, and
an inexperienced smoker either points
It straight ahead or almost at right
angles with bis course. - Chicago

SUNSET GATES AJAR.


SUNSET GATES AJAR.
To night sat in my window
When the West was all sgleam
With that strange and wonderful splendor
That is feeting as drean;s
thought that the hands ofthe angels
Had flung open Heavens gateway wide'
And fcaueht glimpse Of theglory
From the hills On the other side.
Is il not beautiful fancy,
This sunset thought Of mine,
That the gates of Heaven are always
b Flung open at days decline;
That those whose days are ended,
Ofearthly woes and ills,f ?
Maypass TO the morning sunshine,
That dwells on the heavenly hills7
When for me the sunset gateway
Shalr at days decline unclose,
And pass in through the portals
To that long and sweet repose,
know that shall remember,
In that city so fair and far,
Ny strange and beautiful fancy
Of the suntet gates sjsr. .

Perhaps, while sat there dreaming
OF the gateway in the West
Some poor sonl went through itsportaisr
To long and endless rest
Passed thr ough sunset gateway.
To that "city paved with gPldV-
Passed Into the new LIES sladness,
To be no longer old.
