She has brought with her from Paris
specimens of her handiwork, which are

Wrist Watches.

Says London letter TO the Philadel-
phia Telegraph: | was not surprised to
see that nearly all the fair sex were wear
ing the wrist watches which are now so
entirely the fashion in London, but
which, believe, are very little worn as
yet in America. Made in every form,
from the plain leather strap to the magni-
ficient bracelet, where the face of the
watch is encircled by precious stones,
they are both ornamental and conve-
nient. Novelties are even being intro
duced in the shape of purses, pocket
books sticks, and umbrellas containing
diminutive time-keepers, and one jeweler
more daring than the rest, has manu-
faotured some rings resembling signet
watch. II is scarcely likely, however,
that these will ever become fashionable,
as they must be extremely bulky and
ponderous for wearing on the finger.

A silly Little Girl.

A woman weighing something like 200
pounds came into the Grand Central sta
ton the other day, clinging to the bony
arm of a little man who probably tipped
the beam at ninety in his winter clothing.
He led the way to the ladies' waiting
room, deposited the lady in two chairs,
and started out.

dearie?' She gasped out. 81 feel so timid. y

Curious Coincidences.

A London telegram relates an amusing
incident that occurred in case on trial in
one Of the civil courts on Saturday, says
the indianapolis Journal. one of the at
torneys in the case was Mr.. Henry f.
Dickens, son of the novelist, and during
the progress of the trial he brought down
the house by calling as a witness John
Pickwick. Quoth the presiding baron:
"What an appropriate witness TO be
sworn for Dickensl' This caused inn
mense merriment, which increased when
Mr.. Dickens added:
"By a still more curious coincidence,
the witness is a descendant of the Mr..
Moses Pickwick, proprietor of the Bath
coach, from whom have reason to be-
lieve the character of Mr.. Pickwick was
taken, and l verify believe that one OF the
reasons why l was retained in the ease
was that might call Mr.. Pickwick.' p

admits of large and varied application.
1t was the story of minister who,
preaching on exchange, said some strong
things about fast horses He was told
after the sermon that he had touched
one of their best members at tender
point. "Well," said the preacher, IL

Telling the whole story.

A Brooklyn Sunday school teacher who
talkedto the boys about the, sin of lying
and deceiving, the other Sunday, brought
forward the case of a poor boy who left II
dry goods store rather than deceive custo-
mer. Hundreds of Sunday school teach
ers have told the same story, and they
always cut il short and never tell what
became of the boy. Wehappen.t TO know.
He has been driving ON the Erie Canal
ever since, and the merchant whose en-
ploy he left has gone right on lying and
deceiving until he is worth million dol
lars, and is the biggest gun in his church
and social circle, and could be nominated
for Congress on either party ticket We
do not advise boys to lie and deceive, but

A Bright Idea.

Dr.. A. b. Cabaniss is authority for the
story in the Western Recorder concerning
a church in certain town in Kentucky
which was much divided on the organ
question. One of the members was in
the habit of going into the saloon and
taking "a drink whenever he felt like it,
but had holy horror of an organ in
church. In a discussion of the subject he
said; "lf you bring. that organ in here il
Others will leave.n The pastor then
spoke, saying: II can preach either with
or without the organ in the church. 1t Is
matter of indifference TO me, But as
the church is divided about it, and some
say it will drive them out of the church,
think the wisest course for us is to put
the organ in the saloon and see if it won /
keep our members out ofthat place also"
