Would Not be Sighted

The Marysville appeal prints the fol.
lowing:
A youth from the country sat atbreak-
fast in Marysville restaurant the other
day. He noticed that people about him
were drinking from tumblers nm attrac-
overlooking amber-colored fluid, in
which Jumps of ice were floating. The
youth had heard of cocktails, but had
never seen one, and he fancied that the
beverage which attracted his attention
must be cocktails. He had come in to
see the fair, and he was bound to have
as good o time as anybody. Waiter.
he said, with the manner OF man who
knows what he is about, ''bring me
cocktail" "All right, sir" said the as
tonished waiter, ''if you'll give me two
bits I'll go out and get one." The youth
handed over the coin and presently the
waiter brought the cocktail. 1t was
now the youths turn to be surprised.
He stared at the tiny glass containing
the cocktail, and then he asked, indig-
nantly: "Why didn't you bring me
big glass, like them over there" point
ing to the goblets on neighboring tables.
'Them!" cried the waiter. "Why,
them's iced toa!' The youth turned
very red as the consciousness of his
blunder crept upon him, while the peo-
pie about him began TO laugh. He
swallowed the cocktail at a gulp, and
then, spluttering and choking, he seized
his hat and fed.

"Clara Belle" makes the Rev. DIR.
Newman of New York say, "A woman
invariably has an ideal man in her mind
for husband. She doesn't often find
his counterpart in reality. Now, what
is it that usually dissillusionizes her ?
Its the mans talk. He looks like god,
don't you see, and chatters like com-
mon-place mortal. Now, deaf mute
doesn't let himself down in that way.
His methods of conversation are so labo-
rious that he doesn't resort to them un-
less he has something to say. He re-
mains hero in the estimation of the
woman whom he impresses favorably by
his person, and she falls in love with
him for good and all.
