"California men are not so accom-
modating to the ladies as they used to
be" said an old car conductor "Most
OF 'em will keep their seats and let the
women stand; but, of course, when a
pretty girl comes in there is a rush to
see who'll make room for her."
'Do you find the old men more gallant
than the young?" inquired the repor-
ter.
'tAll the time" said the conductor.
"Why, bless you, the market-basket
women has no sort of a chance with
the dudes, but the old fellows will hop
up and give her seat just as readily
as if she was young and good-looking.
The dudes look out of the window
when lady comes in, and l suppose
many of 'em would sooner stand than
be smirked and grinned at by the
monkey hanging on to the strap, who
thinks he has a right to recognition be-
cause he has given 'em his place. I
saw one OF these fellows nicely fixed off
last trip. A mighty pretty young lady
came in with a nurse, and the nnrse
was holding baby. The car was full,
and a dude hoped up when he saw the
sweet face of the young mother, and
let her take his seat Well, sir, he was
grinning and smiling at her all the
time, and she looked mad and indig-
nant, for whatever way she turned that
chump's eyes followed her. At last she
stopped the car and got off. The dude
squatted down and was about to give
her a parting mash through the win
dow, when he saw handkerchief on
the floor. He picked it up quick as
lightning and skipped out after her.
Why. l laughed fit to split, and so did
all the passenger.
'Where did the laugh come in? 1t
was politeness on his part to restore to
her property"
the politeness part of it if you was him,
and knew what you was listing: Twas
a sort of handkerchief, to be sure, but
it belonged to the baby-O yes, there
was no mistake about it; it was the
baby's, and the dude knew it, too, be-
fore he had touched the ground. He
dropped it, sir, as if it was red-hot
iron, and was about to come back into
the car when he saw US all laughing,
and then he shot into the plaza as if
the cops were after him. And the
nurse most let the baby fall, she was so
tickled. [ never see a dude so fabber-
gasted. Derned if wouldn't have car
ried them all to the end of the road and
back again free, just for the Joy they
gave me. Fare, sir" and the conduc-
tor yassed off 4 bad quarter on an old
gentleman who was trying to get an
inch to windward of stout lady with
a package of dry goods.-San Fran

Sea Bathing To Reduce Ones Size.

81 thought only few men were up
to the winter bathing mark" observed
the reporter. The bath man laughed
scornfully. "When lady makes up
her mind to bathe every day in the
year." he said, nothing can stand her
off I've seen men who would come
here on cold mornings, undress, and
walk to the waters edge, but the min
ute 1t touched their toes race back and
get into their clothes again. Not so
with women. When they are in bath
ing trim it means bathing, and nothing
short of tidal wave will stop them.
Here comes the daisy bather of the lot.
I've seen that girl here when it was so
cold that to even look at the water
used to give me the shakes"
The daisy bather was particularly
neat looking and blooming. She was
not more than five minutes in the bath
house before emerging in the regula-
tion costume. Unlike the majority of
her sex, she made no experimental
tests of the temperature of the water,
but plunged in boldly and struck out
like mermaid. The bath man looked
admiringly on.
"Ain't she too nice for anything?"
he said. Just get on to her style. No
scream or squawk about her, but busi-
ness all the time. Now some of these
girls lallygag about the sands for ten
minutes before they get into the water,
and when they do strike it they yell so
you could most hear them at Alcatraz.
Then they 60 no further than their
knees, and to hear them talk afterward
you'd think they had swan to Black
point and were most drowned on the
way. Now, what do you think first in
duced that lady to bathe all the time?
For the pure love of it? No. sir. She
was getting too fat. She tried every
thing dieting, exercise, and medicine,
but nothing would take her down. At
last she dropped on sea bathing, and it
fetched her. She is nice and slim now,
though plump enough, but when she
came here first she was fat as butter
ball. | wish all the fat ladies in the
city would have her courage, and our
winter business would be worth some
thing. The bay is the place for them
to slim down in. Good morning, miss,
did you have a nice dip to-day?'
The fair bather bowed an assent, and
as she stepped briskly homeward the
reporter concluded that unless the
morning beefsteak was of unusual pro-
portions the rest of her family would
go on short rations. Francisco

Surgery the Last Resort-A Telling Letter.


Surgery the Last Resort-A Telling Letter,
Here is fact for you to think over viz Med
lcal science proves that the diseases. no matter
now great variety they seem to have, proceed
from comparatively few causes. 1t is for this
reason that some single medicines relieve or
cure so wide range of complaints-some of
them appearing almost directly opposite in their
natures. When a medical preparation acts at
once upon the digestive and urinary organs
and also purfies the blood, the list of difficulties
subject to its control is astonishing. But, while
many things are said to possess this power,
those which actually do exert it are very rare.
OkITE REMEDY, of Rondout, n. Y, is the
flost elective preparation now in use for all
H'sestses arising from a foul or impure state of
-H' circulation. Hence it is more than likely
s!sat II the writer of the following letter had
habitually taken "FAVORITE REMEDY ten

The Bull Not Taken by the Horns

1t is no credit to cowboy to catch a
bull by the horns, for he cannot be
thrown by them and is simply held as
a prisoner, but the skill in throwing a
lasso is to pitch the moose in front of
an animal when he is going at full gal
lop, so that the next step he treads in
to it. The cowboy tried it on bull
while both of our ponies were jumping
along on dead run. The old fellow
was going about as fast as we were,
but the fatal loop shot through the air
at a tangent and fell, wide open, just in
front of him on the ground. The left
fore foot plunged square into the circle,
the rope was tightenod with a sudden
jerk and the steer rolled over in the
dust, as cleverly caught as anything
ever saw. The broncho, too, under
stood his part OF the business thor
oughly, for he bore at the right mo-
ment in the opposite direction, else he
might have been thrown instead of the
bull, to which he was much inferior in
weight.-F'ort Keogh Corr. Clevelond
