passed, the exclamations, "Look at the

the car was evident and righteous, for
they well knew that the exclamations
were sarcasm instead Of admiration :;
they knew, too, that the men who uttered
them prided themselves upon their own
gentility and position in society they
knew, too, that there were az many gen.

that the school ma'ams were of necessity

tho miserable and misapplied expressions
of sarcasm. But this is not true of Penn.

many Of the fashionable summer resorts,
both Mt the scashore and near the large
cities, dislike aud in some cases refuse to
advertise boarding for teachers "for fear
that the society ladies from the cities
will not patroniZo them" Nor is this
fact true Of the public schools alone.

glad to have her tisit him, but he did not

a cent seems of little value, but if it
is only doubled few times it grows to q
marvellous sum. A young lady in Port.
land caught her father in rash promise

would only give her cent on one day
and double that amount on each success.

pledge herself never 10 ask of him an

Not stopping to run over the figures in
his head, and not supposing It would
amount to large sum, he was glad to
accept the offer at once, thinking it also
q favorable opportunity to include pos.
sibe marriage dowry in the future. On
tho twenty fifth day he became greatly
alarmed lest if he complied with his own
acceptance he might be obliged to be
declared bankrupt on his own petit
ton" But on the thirtieth day this
young lady demanded cnly the pretty
