"Siight Hints on Courtship."

While some of our ycang friends
were in the notion of giving hints, I
think they should not have confined
themselves merely to "love-letter
writing: but should have given
some slight ones relative to visiting
and courtship, since, from all ap.-
pearances some are sadly in need o.
these, perhaps more so, than Of let
ter-writing.
However, since theyhave neglect
ed this, the writer will touch on
some of the most important points,
which should be familiar to every
one-if the season be far advanced,
and the Autumnal winds are already
blowing somewhat lively, bc sure 10

I hadn't more than got done think
ing that, before he said some one had
said, he didn't want his grandchil-
dren to have a d-m red cent. ]
don't know whether the clerk put
that down or not; it made him
blink his eyes nightly, and he looked
around like he was kind O. surprised.
The judge jumped up and said !:
Gentlemen. we'll adjourn this thing
till after dinner" Then one fellow
got up and says: IF the court
is pleased | want to make a motion
before dinner" | was curious to
see what kind Of gymnastic evolu-
tion he vas going through, but they
all went out, and | went, too. |
looked back a time or two, but he
was still standing there trying to
please the court.
Mr.. Editor, l don't want to do
anything to go before the grand
jury. I ain't going to talk about
my neighbors; and if l pull a buggy
out on the prairie in the calm still
hours Of night, you may just put it
down the doctors have been giving
me too much calomel and quinine,
mixed with whisky; but if | do get
to be a school hoard, treasurer or
|riustice of peace, I mean to buy me
a Gnide to Holiness and diction.
ary, ard if l don't keep up with the
times, then you may bet the mo:qui'
toes are too bad to read much.
| have made considerable obser-
vations and come to some conclu.
sions, and | believe about the easiest

something better. Still | do hope
the day is not far distant when the
school board will see the error oil
| its WAYS and turn from the path OF
unrighteousness and walk according
to law and good order, and the clerk
be induced to cover his exposed
books, aud the justices of peace cease
their misdoings, and if the treasurer
can only itemize, balance and
rectify his accounts. make no doubt
that the song Of the mosquito will
no longer he heard in the land, and
The pellucid rains of heaven cease to
overflow the beautiful prairies.

Girls of Present and their Follies.

Girls are lovely creatures. Their
disposition is all too sweet. There
is bewi,ching smile, now fitting
across that heauty's face. Could
you guess what she is smiling at !?
(why. that honest looking lad !,
Wrong. si.. wrong, you don't catch
on. It's that knapkin ring and OK
chain washed over with little yel'
low stuff. Oh! sir, look his mouth
has cracked from e'r to ear! 10
you know the cause? (Becanse its
natural for young man to greet q
damsel with SMILEY Oh | agree
with you, sir; but with no such
smile as that. Yesterday was not a
feast; he saw her to home; she was
not painted and powdered up go, nor
had she her sweet disposition, etc.
Now, let us go in the ball room.
There you'll see bean,ies. How do
YOU like that lady over there. (Why
splendid,) Splendid ? did you say
Let us so little nearer. Look at
that yonng mans coat, the collar is
really white. Where do you sup.
pose it came FROM? Gle did not
brush his coat. That coat is just from
the shop, it came from her cheek sir
Now you Just look at that girl and
then at this one. One is white and
the other one is really yellow
Sc forgot her tallow-she was in q
hurry.
(Hey! what a lovely figure, just
| you look now. What a bust my
goodness.) All !! sir, let us go and
examine. You just look here, now
To da, is Monday. We must 60 see
her and find who she is. Certainly,
let us go through the hall ? Oh no
you would spoil the trick, let us slil
around through the back way : VI
! will catch her in her every day style
Look, there she is! Why, thar, that
not her. where's her ine bosom and
figure? All sir, she has put tina
away for ball rooms and holidays.

He Didn't Get the Tip.

Harry" said a young wife to her
husband" can you get me some
ostrich tips today, as you 60 down
town, and have them sent up?'
Ostrich tips!" he answered, with
puzzled look.
"Yes. dear, ostrich tips"
"Ohl'' be replied, as if he knew
all about. it, "of course l can" and
he went away without betraying his
ignorance.
That evening when he came back
his wife met him at the door.
"Oh! Harry" she cried, "the tips
didn't come. You forgot them, you
naughty fellow
Not much, l didn't" he said with
spirit; "hut they didn't have any,"
Didn't hay any? Why, | saw
them in a dozen places yesterday.
Where did you go?'
Every place. Franks and Joes
and Sans and a whole lot moro
places. They could give me base
bali tips and horsc.race tips and
regatta tips. but nobody had any
ostrich tips, and I gave it up as
bad job.
She looked at him closely for aa
instant, took in the situalion, and
mutual explanations resulted ia an
amicable settlement.
