OF I've heard a gentle mother,
As the twilight hours began,
Pleading with a son on duty,
Urging him To be 81 man
But unto her blue-eyed daughter,
Though with loves words quite as ready
Points she out the other duty
Strive, my dear to be a lady"
What's a lady? Is IT something
Made Of hoops, and silks and airs,
Used TO decorate the parlOr.
Like the fancy rugs and chairsl
j. Il one that wastes on novels
Every feeling that II human?
II 'tis tnis to be a lady,
It's not this 70 be a woman.
Mother, then. unto your daughter,
Speak Of something higher far
Than 70 be mere fashions lady
woman" is the brightest star
II YOU, IN your strong affection.
Urge your son TO be a true man,
Urge your daughter no less strongly
To arise and be a woman.
Yes, a womanl Brightest model
OF that high and perfect beauty,
Where the mind and soul and body
Blend To work out life's great duty.
Be a woman: naught is higher
On the guided crest Of time,
On the catalogue Of virtue
There's no brighter, hoier name.
Montague Marks.

II you' - anything 20 grieve you,
And ill your heart with ears,
II Poverty bidee near you,
And your days are dimtDed ~ tears,
II you hnd with soul despsiring
No answer 10 your prayers.
Dent say word about It, for
Nobody really cares.
Ifheaith and strength forsake you,
And pain and sickness bring
A gloom that clouds the sunshine
And shadows everything.
II you feel that lot so weary
But seldom mortal bears.
Don't say a word about IT, for
Fobody really cares

And, take u at its best.

The FOol-Killer.
IBill Nye.l

lDi N1t-I
/ sometimes think that if the fool-killer
would give little more attention TO his
business and would try little harder to
earn his salary there would be less COM
plant and less dissatisfaction on the part
of the intelligent taxpayers.
Now, for instance, suppose that he
should, prior to each election, hold a
kind OF competitive examination of fools,
to close with grand tournament and fool
shoot at thirty yards rise; or the fool could
be made to pay each year for license,
the revenue to 90 to the government,
partial fools to pay $50 license, chronic
fools SlO0and hopeless fools $500 per year
I'd like to be instrumental in getting such
a law passed, and then get out of the
country before it went into effect.

THE MISER'S REQUEST.


please, sir, here's letter"
"All right, Mary Now, them" added
Philip Acre, as the door closed behind
Mary's substantial back, ''let's see what
my unknown correspondent has to say.
A black seal, eh? Not having any rela-
tions to lose, am not alarmed at the
prognosticl"
He broke the seal, and glanced leisure
ly over the short, business-like commu-
nication contained within, with a face
that varied from incredulous surprise to
sudden gladness.
"Am I dreaming?" he murmured, rub
bling his eyes, and shaking himself, as if
10 ensure complete possession of his
senses. mo, I'm wide awake, and in my
right mind; it is no delusion-no part OF
my waking visionl But who would ever
suppose that old Thomas Mortimer,
whom l haven't seen since l was boy
of sixteen, and picked him out of the
river half dead between cramp and fright,
would die and leave me all of his money?
Why, I'm net the shadow of relation;
but then l never heard that the old man
had any kith or kin, so l can't imagine
any harm in taking advantage of his odd
freak, Rich-am / really to be rich?-is
my Aladdin vision 20 be an actual fact?
OH Edith, Edith"
He clasped both his hands over his
eyes, sick and giddy with the thought
that the lovely, far-of star of his adora-
ton would be brought near to him at
last by the magnet, gold. All those years
of patient waiting, which he feared were
before him, were to be bridged over by
the strange old miser's bequest; he might
claim Edith now.
How full of heart-sunshine were the
weeks that fitted over the head of the ac-
cepted over-brightenedb by Edith's smile
made beautiful by the soft radiance OF
Edith's love-
There was only one alloying shadow
the almost imperceptible touch of distrust
and suspicion with which stern old
Doctor Wyllis regarded his future son-in-
law.
All, he feared to trust his only child
TO the keeping of any man who had not
been proved in the fiery furnace of trial!
1t was precisely week before the day
appointed for the wedding, and the soft
iiohts yelled by shadows of ground glass
were Just lighted in Doctor Wyllis's draw
ing-room, where Edith sat among her
white roses and hehotrope, working on a
bit of cambria ruffiing, and singing to her
self.
She was slender beautiful girl, with
violet eyes, biue-veined forehead, and
glossy abundant curls, of that pale gold
that painters love to portray.
Il wonder ii Mortimer Place is so very
lovely" she said to a silver-haired lady
who sat opposite. "Philip is going TO
take me there when we return from our
wedding tour, aunty; he says it is the
sweetest place poets fancy could devise,
with flowers and shrubbery, and delic-
ious eopsesl OH shall we not be happy
there?"
She started up, with bright sudden
flush; for even while the words were
trembling on her lips, Philip Acre came
into the room, his handsome face looking
a little troubled, yet cheerful withal.
Mrs. Wyllis, with an arch nod at her
niece, disappeared into the perfumed per
spective of the conservatory, leaving the
lovers to themselves.
sYou are looking grave, Philip" said
Edith, as he bent over and kissed her
cheek. ----

''No, but my husband was determined

A Light Day For Business Prices After Taking A Drop React Just Before The Close And Remain At The Top Figures.

 The Top Figures.
 NEW YORK. May 26 The dealings on the Stock Exchange this morning were small scale and attracted but little inter est outside of few of the leading stocks. Lacka- wanna, New York Central, Western Union, St. Paul and Union Pacific were the most prominent in the dealings and were well supported the belief that the meeting of the trunk line representatives in session to-day was for the purpose of formulat ing negotiations with view to the ultimate adjust ment of the trunk line troubles. At noon prices were up A to 1N per cent the latter in Jersey Central, which was exceptionally strong. After midday trading almost entirely died out and with the exception of few small sales by the room traders nothing of interest transpired up to o'clock. At that hour prices showed a fractional decline from the top figures The market contin- ued dull throughout the last hour of business but the tone was frmer and on some buying just before the close the reaction of the early afternoon deal ings was fully recovered, the market closing with the top figures of the day current. The conference of the trunk line presidents to-day was conducted in secret and nothing is known Of the questions raised. The specialties were wholly nominal. The sales to-day amounted to 1OO, 200 shares.
 Closing prices reported over the private wires of BUNNELL & SCRANTON. Bankers and Brokers.
