Billiards for Girls.

Two girls of this city having heard
that Elizabeth Cady Stanton advised
billiards for girls, concludedtop profit by
the advice of so wise counselor, and
the other day when the men folks were
all down town the girls in question adj
journed to the billiard room to have a
game.
"What shall we playp" asked the
elder.
"Why, billiards of course"
Il know you silly thing. but there's
different kinds of billiards. l mean what
kind shall we play. There's discount,
and hundred or nothing, and pin ball
and fifteen pool"
"Oh. don't know; which is the
nicest?'
Hundred ornothing's easy; mabe we
had better begin on that"
"All right"
''Well, why don't you get your pole

"Oh you big story teller, l saw pa

Miss Pytchley staggered away from the

all was still.
She had run against one of the stone
supports of the house, and striking her
head against it, she fell senseless to the

John, the man.
'It's a womanr' cried DIR. Hilton.
"It's that Miss Pytchley! Poor creature,

"Well. sir, said John a little guiltily,

Mrs. Grimm, "you knocked over big

A Hot Water Bottle for the Muff.

have recently heard of an invention
that has been patented by lady, of a
muff with an inside receptacle for hold
ing hot water or any other fluid, the
same being introduced through mouth
piece on top, which when in use is kept
securely corked. A horrid man says:
"Here is presented a grand opportunity.
The same muff that holds water will
also hold less temperate fluid, and there
can be contained in 1t not only warmth
for the hands, but warmth for the entire
body, and the woman who bends grace
fully while raising her muff, burying
her face in It's furry surface, ostensibly
to warm a nose presumably red with
cold, can draw in a draught more po-
tent than the limpid Croton. Other
articles can be utilized in the same way,
and in convocation of strong-minded
women one may expect to hear Of one
tapping sherry from her boa, whisky
from her muff, and variety of cordials
from small sacks contained within the
folds of her sealskin or cape. ADDER

Keepin'. Grocery.

In town up the Hudson two farmers
had an itching last spring to 60 into
trade, and after canvassing the subject
for spell they put in $1,000 each and
opened q grocery. Trade was dull,
both had large families. and they finally
concluded to dissolve partnership. In
this frame of mind they consulted a
lawyer, who asked:
''What is the value of the stock on
handp"
about 81, 200"
"And how much do you owe?"
"About $400."
'Very well. see my way clear. Mr..
Smith, you will draw out the good will
for your share, and I'll throw in barrel
of molasscs for your family. Mr.. Brown,
you take all accounts, and I'll throw in
key of pickles"
"And what's to become of the store!'
"Oh, you'll assign all the goods to
me, for my trouble in paying the debts
and giving you legal advice"
Those farmers sometimes stop to
think of it, as they lean on their hoes
and rest their aching backs, but they
cannot make it clear.

THE COAL TRADES CENTER.
Sope Of the Great Producing Mines in the
Lehigh Anthracite Region.

HazletOn is the center of coal trade in
the Lehigh region, the mines of which
produced last year and shipped to mar
ket $500, 900 tons of anthracite, against
5,039,9iS tons in 1881. Many of the old
collieries that were considered to have
been worked out years ago have been
reopened and are at present producing
more coal than ever. The recent de-
velopment of new coal lands west of
Hazleton are attracting much attention
among miners and operators. Some
sixty blocks of miners houses. a store,
school-house, and the Lehigh Valley
station, make up what is know as Black
Ridge, so called from a ridge of high
land in the vicinity. About a quarter
of n mile west of the station is the
breaker slope and shops of the COM
pany. The breaker. which is perfect
model of the best in the Lehigh union,
has capacity to ship 10000 tons pHr
annum. 1t is conveniently located be-
tween the north and south basins, so
that the coal can be taken from both
without difficulty. The main opening
is upon the south basin of the Monmouth
vein, which is found here divided into
three splits, or seams, of excellent coal.
The slope is sunk to the basin on the
bottom seam at a pitch of GO degrees,
and the coal from the top and middlS
seams is all taken to the bottom of tho
slope by means of self-acting planes.
The upper seam is twenty feet thick, the
middle from fourteen to eighteen, and
the bottom eight feet. The foreman,
William +. Jones, formerly of Shamo-
kin, prides himself on having the best
ventilated mine in the region. The COM
pany have over thousand acres of
land, and have long run on the veins.
A new slope is going down on the bot
tom split of the north basin, about three
hundred yards west of the breaker. The
basin at this point is about thirteen
hundred yards wide between the out
crops, and shows thickness of eight
feet on the bottom split. the middle
twelve, and the top thirteen feet ut the
outcrop, and the thickness of the vein is
expected to increase as the slope nears
the basin. The Wharton vein has also
been opened on the north side seven feet
thick, and as the basin extends east and
west on the property for a distance OF
about two miles, the company expect it
to yield q vast amount of coal. The
Buck mountain vein, which was found
two miles from the breaker, near the
eastern end of the property, is in good
condition, and about seven feet thick.
The work of sinking the new slope will
be pushed vigorously. - Philadelphia

without complaint, and often congratu-
late themselves on the better air and
wider prospect thus obtained.
A conscientious member of the legis-
lature of Georgia, who during the ses-
sion of he'legislature obtained five post
age stamps from clerk i'm one of the
State departments, insisted upon paying
for them, although they were to be used
for State business. This looks very
commendable in the legislator, but it is
asserted that at the same time he had
railroad passes in his pocket. and had
used them and charged the State mile
age both ways.
A Long Island man has been sent to
prison for three months for kissing a
woman on the street. A distressing
lack of details in the account leaves the
reader in doubt as to whether kissing is
of itself criminal oilense in Long
Island, or whether the woman was SO
ugly that the offender could not plead
mitigating circumstances, or whether
the salute would have been permitted in
the seclusion of u parlor with the lamp
turned down.
Whisky traffic at Boise City, ]. T.,
must be rather brisk, even for n West
ern town. a publie-spirited man there,
if he is given the exclusive right to sell
spirituous liquors in that town, he will
agree to pay the Indebtedness of the
city and school district, and forever
keep up iirst-class public school sufii-
cient to educate all the children, pay a
good liberal salary to every preacher
for every church in the city, and build
new church every five years. He ex-
poets to become a millionaire himself
besides. Some very good citizens want
the proposition. accepted; but all the
deacons who are running grocery stores
with frontier attachments object to the
establishment of such a grasping mo.
nopoly.
