How A WOMAN TRIES ON sHoEs.-Wh

How WOMAN TRIES ON SHoEs.-When
a woman has a new pair of shoes sent home
she performs altogether different from a
man. She never shoves her toes into them
and yanks and hauls until she is red in the
face, and all out of breath, and then goes
stamping and kicking around, but pulls
them on part way carefully, twitches them
off again to take last look, and see if she
has got the right one, pulls them on again,
looks at them dreamily, says they are just
right, then takes another look, stops sud-
denly to smooth out a wrinkle, twists
round and surveys them sideways, ex-
claims "Mercy, how loose they are,''
looks at them again square in front, works
her foot around so they won't hurt her
quite so much, takes them off, looks at the
heel, the toe, the bottom, and the inside,
puts them on again, walks up and down
the room once or twice, remarks to hel
better half that she won have them at any
price, tilts down the mirror so she can see
how they look, turns it in every possible
direction, and nearly dislocates her neck
trying to see how they look from that way,
backs off, steps up again, takes thirty ol
forty farewell looks, says they make hel
feet look awful big and never will do in the
world, puts them on and off three or four
times more, asks her husband what he
thinks about it, and then pays no attention
to what he says, goes through it all again,
and finally says she will take them. It's
very simple.-Kansas City Star.

s.What is it to us, as a party. if ]

"What is it to us, as party, if Mr.
Blaine is elected and we are given the 60.
by ard are sacriflced?"
Such is the inquiry and lament of the Sc
cret circular sent out by the chairman of
the Republican State Executive Committee,
to his assumed faithful adherents. Unless
the little squad can command the offices,
what is it to them whether the government
is to be under Democratic or Republican
control? What are the principles of the
party to them if they cannot secure the
spoils? What would it be to them if three
fonrths OF the Republicans of Virginia
should favor Blaine, and the other fourth
be not allowed to pack delegation to Chi
cage for Sherman? Ninetenths of those to
whom the secret circular was sent, we
doubt not, felt deep sense of disgust and
contempt come over them on reading it.,
and could never be induced to take part in
carrying into effect the secret plot it for
mulated. Are the Republicans of Virginia
prepared to endorse the insidious scheme
presented, to deceive the people and rob
them of their rights at the command of one
man? Are they ready to give their sane
tion to the wicked recommendation; assure
defeat now and hereafter and bring re-
pioach upon themselves? To do so, would
be to surrender all claim to and respect and
confidence of the party in the Nation, and
to advertise that the controlling influence
with Republicans in Virginia is:not devotion
to the principles of the party, but a
mercenary greed for public Valley

CAsABIANCA (Colored.)
BY GoLLY.

One darkie stood in the 'backer patch,
Whence all the rest had fed;
While mule heels, clods and green worms few
whiZZing round his head.
savory, stout and black he stood,
AS born to work farm,
While gaping mouth and bulging eyes
Betokened his alarm.
That mule kicked hard; he wouldn't leave
"Unless de boss said so"
''De boss" unconscious of his plight,
Had gone off to the show.
The darkie yelled: "See here, boss, say!
Mus lef dis mule go?"
Just then the boss was miles away,
And Cuffee called out whoa "
Quite thick and fast a cloud of dust
Arose toward the sky,
And filled the darkie's eyes and nose
Like flour off hotel pie.
SAY, boss !" again poor Cuffee cried,
EFF 'taint mos time rs gone ?'
Naught but the clattering hoofs replied,
As the agile mule kicked on.
At last there came thunderous crash
That made the earth resound,
And when the dust and debris pass'd
The mule could not be found.
That fateful last terrific kick
Had struck on Cuffee's head.
And now the mule shattered wreck,
Lay far off limp and dead.

The Old EOgY.

1 am very much of an old fogy. Iloug for
young men and maidens of the Puritan
stamp. But, as one ofmy pert young neph-
ews says,I guess can stake it out in long
ing" Often, when l am expatiating on
boys and girls of the by-gone days, this
same nephew brings me up short with a
"Whacher givin' us?' that makes my
blood run cold.
/ fancy I hear Miles StandIsh talking that
way to his uncle. 1 fancy 1 see Miles and
Priscilla seated on Boston horse-car con-
Quoting themselves in the following man
ner !:
They sat opposite me on the car. He was
a dapper youth, faultless as to linen and
the fit of his clothes. She was sweet
faced, innocent looking girl, with black
head of hair. He began by saying:
81 made a new mash at the toboggan last
night"
"Yes, you did-in horn," was the staid
and demure reply.
'sBet your life did" he says.
"Bet you didn't"
''Well, l did that, and, 1 tell you she's
daisy, too"
"Oh, give us a rest"
"Well, its fact all the same. Who was
that lah-de-dah you were with ?"
"Lah-de-dah, indeed He was my very
best young man, and tell you he's a dan
dy chap"
"Yaas, he is"
''He is that, and dou't you forget it. My
hearts smashed all to flinders"
"Yes, you look that way. Next thing
we know you'll be wed, won't youa"
''Not that anybody knows. The man
don't walk the earth that I'd tie to-"
ooh, git outl I've heard that kind OF talk
before"
"Git out yourself, smarty! Oh, say-you
know that dude of Harry ST. Clair, don't
you?"
"Well, 1 should SMILE"
"Well, Tilly Barton is said to be dead
gone on him."
''No?"

"Pshawn'
did you evers"
'sNo, never"
sHe's no good"
"He's dandy, he is"
"Yaas, he is" said this Miles Standish
of 1886, with elaborate courtesy.
ooh, you" exclaimed Priscilla.
But got mp aud left the car, longing
more than ever for a return of the grand
old days when maidens were modest and
men manly.

a London paper of that date thus de-
scribes him: "Mr. Glalstone's p
ance and manners are much in his
favor. He is IL t%ine-looking man. He
is about the usual height, all of good
figure. His co%unttnance il mild and
pleasant, and he has q highly intel
lectual expression. His eyes are clear
and quick; his eyebrows ar. dark and
rather prominent. There is no dandy
in the House hut cnvies what Trucfit
would call his fine head of jet-hlack
hair. 1t is always carefully parted
from his crown downward to his brow,
where it is tastefully shaded. His
features are small and regular, and his
complexion must be an unworthy wit
ness if lie does not possess abundant
good health"
