e. he sure Your Sin VIII Find You
Out

~. ih'.tS 4tt i'''f'ttt'i'ss
About eight o'clock last night two
gentlemen, accompanied by two we'll
dressed ladies, took seats at a table in
an uptown restaurant. After looking
over the bill of fare and giving their
orders the party began talking gayly
although in low tone, and were evi.
IDENTIFY enjoying themselves very much.
One gentleman, however, was extreme
~ nervous, anu Kept constantly watch
ing the door. The dinner was just
served rs a richly attired lady made her
appearance in the restaurant. Hastily
CHANGING around she saw the social four,
and swiftly crossing the room confront
ed the nervous man. He was speech
less with alright, and she opened the at
tack: $50 you're here, are you? Is this
the lodge, and is this woman pointing to
the nervous mans cOmpaniOn) one Of
the destitute widows, or poor father
less orphan, under your special care"
The gentleman turned red and white
10y turns and stammered: "W-w-why,
my friends and | were just having a
little supper, and -" "a little supper,
indeed" retorted the lady. HDo you
call that little supper? Come along
now.n but my friends" protested
the nervous man. 81 don't care for
your friends. | want you to come
home with me-and are you coming"
rcsOlutely said the little woman. The
nervous man got up, muttered an apol-
Ogy, and, taking his coat on his arn,
SUNK out of the door. His companion
turned halt around, smiled sweetly and
said 10 the retreating and unblessed
benedict: Better luck next time,
Charley. Ta-ta."

An Esau Exhibiting His Beard.

A London paper tells of stout man,
of dignitied presence, who would walk
solemnly into a restaurant or bar, and
stop suddenly before any knot OF three
or four people he might happen to see.
When they turned their eyes upon him,
as theynaturally would do, he proceed
ed with great gravity to unbutton his
waiscoat. The result of this was the
disclosure of an enormous sbeard, some
two feet in length, the lower part of
which was kept inside the waistcoat
when not required for professional pur-
poses. He would then, after receiving
any comments with perfect silence,
button up his waiscoat and hold out his
hat. His whole demeanOr seemed to
say: "This truly magnificent beard
speaks for itself; no words of mine can
add to its beauty, and if you haven't
sense enough to appreciate it, and drop
a copper in the owners hat, words
would be wasted on YOU"

All IL Not silver That You Find on a
widows Farm.


Anew discovery, recently made while
some men were digging a we'll near
Benton, Ky, few days ago, threw
the whole community into a fever of
excitement. When down about twenty
feet the diggers struck deposit of glis-
tening ore in small pieces about the
size and almost the identical shape of a
butter cracker. A neighbOr brought
some Of the ore to town yesterday, aud
calling on a gentleman who has &C
uuired some reputation as an expert,
laid down handkerchief full OF speci-
mems on the table, with the inquiry:
Doctor, what's that worth"
The doctor examined it and replied
"Pyrites of 'front.' isn't worth a
nickel ton" And he placed some OF
it on a shovel, held it over the crate,
when it quickly disappeared up the
chimney
1.-The mischief growled the old man,
as he eomprehended the situation.
There's widder out in Marshall who
has a whole we'll full oft! I've bought
half her farm and my son has married
her galm
The doctor says that the old man was
one of the most completely broken up
old gentlemen that has yet come in
from the wilds.

| Extrayagances of fashion have not
been lacking 10 us, but no one has been
compelled TO adopt them; every one
might dress herself in the way which
her own good sense told her suited her
best. Now this, ladies, is the first and
greatest necessity of rational and heauti-
full costume, that you should keep your
liberty of choice; 50 beg you TO battle
stoutly for it, or we shall all tumble
into exploded folhes again. Then next,
your My chance of keeping that liberty,
Is to resist the imposition on YOU of cos
TUNES of unnatural monstrusities. Gar
ments should veil the human form, and
neither caricature il, nor obliterate its
lines; the body should be draped, and
neither sewn up in a sack nor stuck in
the middle of box; drapery, properly
managed, is not dead thing, but a hv-
ing one, expressive of the endless beauty
OF motion; and if this be lost half the
pleasure of eyes in common life is lost.
You must specially bear this in mind.
because the fashionable milliner has
chiefly one end in view-how to hide
and degrade the human body in the most
expensive manner. She Tor he) would
see no beauty in the Venus of Milo; she
Tor he) looks upon you as scatIolds on
which to hang bundle of clean rags,
which can be sold dear under the name
of dress.
