In Courtship Hours.
From the Boston Courier.

When on your face her lovely eyes
Are often fixed, when she appears
Attentive to your looks and signs
And TO your words lends willing ears;
When she with laughter greets your jest
And says, II think you're horrid;" know
That you are still welcome guest,
You need not yet make haste to go.
When on the clock her gaze she bends
And wonders if pas gone to bed,
And when you mako joke, pretendj
She did not hear just what you said;
When she behind her lily hand
Begins to yawn, though he may grieve,
The man of sense will understand
The time has come for him to leave.

From the Val Street Nelrs.
While a New Yorker was nosing around Biz
mingham Ala. in search of a coal or iron mine

quest for 10c and added:

1t is gratifying TO know that Mrs Wilson,
the young woman who married James Will
son, Jr, because his father gave her consid-
erablc property for doing so, has gained her
suit in New York. She sued for $4,000
cash given her by the old man and withheld
at his death. Young James tainted away
when the verdict was brought in. Mrs.
Wilson deserves her success. A woman who
can reform a very bad young man is one of
unusually strong character

His Reputation for Sincerity.

From the Nelo York Tribune Rep1
When Mr.. Blaine had an attack of sunstroke
In Washington his enemies boldly asserted that
it was a carefully planned political coup. If he
were to die tomorrow in Florence there would
be carping critics ready to distrust the news
and TO suspect him of duplicity and dexterity in
imposing upon the American people by invent
ing a bogus account of his own funeral. Your
rabid Blaine hater stops at nothing,
