As the boy went out, the groceryman
sat for several minutes thinking of the
change that had come over the bad boy,
and wondered what had brought it
about, and then he went to the door to
watch him as he wended his way across
the street with his head down, as
though in deep thought. and the gro
ceryman said to himself, "that boy is
not as bad as some people think he u.s."
and then he looked around and saw u
sign hanging up in front of the store,
written on piece of box cover, with
blue pencil, Spoiled canned ham and
tongue, good enough for church pic

was slipping down an alley, and said

The most strange and unaccountable
accident recorded lately occurred on
the new East river bridge between
Brooklyn and New York on decoration
day, whereby about twenty persons
were killed and many wounded. There
were on the foot way of the bridge two
streams of people. one from New York
and the other from Brooklyn. On the
New York end of this pathway there
is jump-off about six feet high which
is descended by steps. About four
o'clock IN the afternoon the streams
from both directions refused to mount
or descend these stairs and began push.
ing back against those coming on. This
made jam which crushed the life out
of some, The crowd pushing toward
the steps being the strongest it gradu-
ally forced the stream upon them till a
girl fell over the slight precipice. Be
fore she could rise others fell upon her
and they stacked up there like dead
hogs, and many were crushed and tram
pied to death.

The Bad Boy.

"See here, you coon, you get out of
here" said the groceryman to the bad
boy, as he came in the store with his
face black and shining, Il don't want
any colored boys around here. White
boys break ME up bad enough"

he put his hands OH his knees and
laughed so che candy jars ratified on

am the same boy that comes in here
and talks your arm off," and the boy
opened the cheese box and cut off a
piece of cheese so natural that the
groceryman had no difficulty in recog-
nizing him.
what in the name of the Seven
Sleeping Sisters have you got on your
hands and face said the groceryman,
as he took the boy by the ear and turn
ed him around. "You would pass In a

"Well, I will tell you, if you will keep
watch at the door. 1t you see bald
headed colored man coming along the

colored man will be pa. You see, we
moved yesterday. Pa told me to get

we would have fun moving. But l

all the light things. and when it come
to lifting, he had a crick in the back.
Gosh, never was so tired as was last
night, and hope we have got settled,
only some of the goods haven't turned

thought it was all right, If everybody
that was moving got load of goods.

A Puritan Love Letter.

Perhaps the oldest love letter ever
written was one from John Winthrop
to his third wife short time before
they were married. He was Puritan
of the straightOst sect; so was she; the
two were equally matched so far, and
he accordingly addressed her in the
strangest adoption of Scripture langu-
age to the purposes Of courtship ever
seen. He begins: "Grace, mercy and
peace, etc. My own beloved spouse, my
most sweet friend and faithful COM
panion of my pilgrimage. the happy
and hopeful supply of my greatest
losses, (he had lost two wives) Iwish
thee most plentiful increase Of all
true omfort. with large and prosper
GUS addition of whatsoever happiness
the sweetest estate of holy wedlock, in
the kindest society of loving husband
may afford thee. Being filled with the joy
of thy love, and waiting opportunity of
more familiar communion with thee,
which my heart fervently desires, l am
constrained to ease the burden of my
mind by this poorhelp of my scribbling
pen, being sufficiently assured that,
though that my presence is that which
thou deslrest, yet in the want thereof
these lines shall not be unfruitrul of
comfort to thee. And now, my sweet
love. let me awhile solace myself in the
remembrance of our love, Of which this
springtlme of our acquaintance can put
forth as yet no more but the leaves and
blossoms, whilst the fruit lies wrapped
up in the tender bud Of hope; little
more patience will disclose this good
fruit and bring it to some maturity.
Let 1t be our care and labor to preserve
those hopeful buds from the beasts Of
6eld, and from frosts and other injuries
of the air, lest our fruit shall fall off
ere it is ripe, or lose ought In the beauty
and pleasantness thereof. Let us
pluck such nettles and thorns as would
defraud our plants of their due nourish-
ment; let US prune off our superfuous
branches; let us not stick at some la
Dor in watering and manuring them;
the plenty of goodness of our fruit
shall recompense us abundantly. Our
trees are planted in fruitful soil; the
ground and pattern of our love is no
other but that between Christ and his
dear spouse of whom she speaks as she
speaks rs she finds him. MY well be-
loved is mine and am his Love was
their banqueting house, love was their
wine, love was their ensign; love was
their invitings, love was their faint

None Other Need Apply

When, If ever, l take pleasure
In companionship for life,
The girl who fills the following measure
Is the one to be my wife:
Dimpled cheeks and pure complexion,
Rosebud lips and teeth of pearl,
Head enjoying the protection
OF dark brown heightened silken curls
Shapely waist with limps well l.rouded,
Every movement full of grace,
For her husband, love unbounded
Beaming from classic face;
Hand that noble birth evinces,
Skilled in any art and all;
Foot formed fit to bear a princess;
Footstep light as snowflake's fall.
Deep blue eyes that borrow lustre
From spotless soul within;
Heart, when passions round 1t cluster,
Which but lets the noblest in.
Age not over one end twenty,
Heiress of a wealthy pa
Who of worldly good, leaves plenty
For his future son law.
So II ever feel lonely,
And for matrimony sigh,
Then this girl, and this one only.
And no other need apply.

A COOP SALAD.-A very appetizing salad is
made by c%hopping coarsely some cold boiled
potatoes; then season we'll with salt, pepper
and mustard; line a salad dish with fresh let
tuce, then put in a layer of potatoes; on the
top put a layer of cold boiled beets, also
CHOPPED and seasoned, garnish the dish lib
orally with lettuce, and Just before sending
it to the table add vinegar, plain, or with
ordinary salad dressing,
LEMON PuDDING.-Two lemons, two eggs
and two cups of sugar and four tablespoon
fuls of corn-starch dissolved in a little cold
water. After this is dissolved, stir it in two
cups of water; then add the beaten yolks of
the eggs with the juice OF two lemons and a
little of the grated peel; lastly, stir in the
sugar, put this in a p~udding-dish, and let it
bake for about half an hour. If the oven is
hot, this will be a long enough time. Then
draw to the edge of the oven and spread over
the top of tine pudding the whites of two eggs;
beat them to a froth, with a heaping tea
spoonful of sugar added. Let this brown for
two or three minutes This pudding is full
as nice when cold as when warm.
Picnic SANDwIcHEs.-Take equal quaint
ties of the breast of a cold boiled chicken and
of cold boiled tongue. Chop them very
fine; so fine, in fact, that you cannot distin-
guish the separate particles. Add a good
large Tablespoonful of celery salt, a pinch
of cayenne pepper, and four tablespoonfuls
of Mayonnaise dressing. This quantity of
condiments will be enough to season the
breast of one large chicken, and an equal
quantity of tongue. When this is perfectly
cold spread some thin slices of bread with
butter, and then with this mixture. Do not
prepare them till you are about ready to
serve them. If you wish to take sandwiches
Tor a lunch when travelling be careful not to
make the dressing quite so moist as you
would if they are to be eaten at nome. The
