Useful Hints.

When a setting hen is too indis-
posed to stay on the nest continu-
ously, let her rest alternate days and
tie the rooster on the nestwhile she
resting.
The SCOT can be thoroughly swept
out Of a chimney by dropping a
goose in it at the top. The goose,
in vainly striving to fly upward, with
its wings, thoroughly cleans the
chimney.
BY immersing the entire body in
soft tar before taking n bee-tree, one
can fender himself invulnerable to
the assaults of the bees.
You can smoke n rabbit out Of a
hollow by smoking cigarette close
enough to let the stencil enter the
hole.
The scented whiskey on the breath
can be subducd by smearing asafot-
ida on the moustache.
If you make a habit Of keeping
live mice in your pockets, your loose
change viii be comparatively safe
from your enterprising wife.
If you take y small step-ladder
with you into the theatre it will be
very serviceable when the stage is
barricaded from view by big hat.

A RlnefOrician.

Professor (to his wife)-My dear,
| wish you would speak more care
fully. You say that Henry Jones
came to this townsfroni st. Lauis.
Wife Yes. I = r ~ :
Professor-W Well, now, wouldn't it
be better to say that he came from
St Louis to this town?
Wife, don't see any difference
in the two expressions.
Professor-But there is a differ
ence, q rhetorical difference. You
don't hear me make such awkward
expressions. BY the way, have a
letter from your father in my pocket.
Wife--But my father is notin your
pocket. You mean that you have,
in your pocket, letter from my
father.
Protessor--There yougo with your
little bubbles. You take delight
in harassing me. You are always
catching up q thread and represent
ing it as a rope.
Wife-Representing it to be rope
you mean.
Professor-For goodness sake, do
hush. Never saw such n quarrel
some woman in my life.--4rkansalc

She was Posing for Eve.

There was grand ball given re-
Gently by the elite, to which large
number Of distinguished men were
invited, among whom was an artist,
who was as absent minded as he
was noted. Owing to the latter
fact he became the lion of the eve
ming, the ladies especially paying
him marked attention. One fair
one, less attired, specifically speak
ing, than her comrades, attempted
to draw him out. Her efforts prov
ed of no avail, as the artist became
more and more distracted.
Il must be in miserable form to-
night, she observed, Il seem to in
terest you so little
For an instant the immebile coun-
tenance relaxed. Form, did you
say? Well, yes. You must raise
your left shoulder bit and keep
your head trife more erect

embarrassment. Il beseech you, sir,
no more. You are insulting

Woodworth.

Woodworth.
Great God |! lie will die and new
er know that | love him. she cried
as she threw aside tho paper and
paced the room, wfinging her hands.
Perhaps he is dying now, and am
here. Oh, my heart, my love!n
She tinkled bell and servant
entered. Have James get ready
the coach to drive me to WynnvilIe,n
she said, "A dear friend Of mine is
one of the victims of that horrible
railroad accident. Bid him not to
waste a moment
There was an unutterable look Of
anguish on her white face. She was
half beside herself with fear and re-
morse.
When she was dressed and ready
she sat down at her escritoire and
wrote few lines on sheet of gilt
paper with q monogram on the cor
ner, and directed it to DR.. Rush
leigh. In it she said: San unex-
pected accident calls me away. But
I can tell you my mind to-day. do
not love you.n That was all she said.
Then she slipped a glass Of wine
and went down to the coach.
Wyrnyille, the scene of the disas-
ter, was only q dozen miles from the
city, and she directed the coachman
to drive directly to the hotel of the
place, whore many Of the sufferers
had been conveyed. She never
knew how they got there. She new
er knew anything until she stood in
his room and saw him lying, pale as
death and his teeth clinched in ago
ny, upon the bed in a chamber of
the hotel. His leg was broken ut
the knee, and one ankle was fractur-
cd. lie had suffered terribly.
She hesitated a moment, then she
walked up to him and laid her hand
gently upon his.
Horace, my love, after oil these
months | have come to you. Know
that | love YOU"
The voice was inexpressibly sweet
and tender, and every word hid the
cadence of a silver bell.
He opened his tired eyes, and his
face grew TRANSPORTED with q great
joy.
"After all these months. 1t can
not be !" he gasped, at cannotr Y
eyes, | love you. | loved you
then, but | did not know it, or | was
too proud to own it. Oh, my love,
my king, / have learned there is none
like you"
And the country life, Grace
am farmer still"
"Say nothing, Horace. That was
long ago, and / was very foolish.
shall be happy anywhere with you"
"Dear Grace, you have done me
more good than all the surgeons,
and ] do love you. l will make it
as easy as possible for you.o
People in her world of show and
fashion wondered and shook their
heads, and talked Of how well Grace
Chaloner might have done. But
Mrs. Woodworth, living among the
birds and brooks and smiling fields
of the Connecticut farm, would not
have changed her lot for that of
royal princess.
