Nearly an Even Trade.

From the Detroit Free Press.
Those Western fellows can give us twenty
five points aud then beat us every game, said
a Detroit real estate agent who returned from a
Western trip yesterday.
What do you neanf' was asked.
II mean cheek, he replied. 81 had specula-
ton in my eye when / went West, but got
scared before | reached st. Paul. Why, sir,
there were no less than thirteen real estate
agents in my coach and every one made dead
set at me. One chap who wanted to sell me
business property in St. Paul was the best
talker have ever heard. l looked up the land
after got there. and it was just eleven miles
from the centre of the city. Some of the pieces
of suburban property mentioned to me at a
bargain were forty miles away. They took it as
an insult if you wanted to ride out to see the
property"
And didn't you buy?"
''Yes. At Kansas City a man stumped me to
trade piece of land Lhad in Saginaw c)unty
for suburban farm he had there. 1t was un-
sight and unseen"
And did you make or lose?'
"Oh, came out about even, l guess His sll-
hurban farm was a hill in Arkansas, while my
Michigan farm was a cat-tail swamp two feet
under water the year round We are both try
ing to sell to second parties now, and perhaps
the man who gets my hill will arrange to fill in
for the man who gets the swamp"

The tricks of the politicians are many
and subtle. Not long ago a Congressman,
whose name is not given. went to the Post
master General and asked him TO appoint a
certain man postmaster in certain town.
The Postmaster General replied that he had
determined to appoint the widow of a gal
liant Federal soldier. The Congressman
saw his opportunity for helping himse f
Congressman rarely fail to catch on TO such
oppo;tunities-and strIightway sent n tele-
gram to the widow, saying he had strongly
urged her appointment, and thought he
would be successful in procuring it. She
was appointed several days later, and
doubtless sent the Congressman an acknow-
Judgement of his services in her behalf, and
her relatives will all favor his reelection,
while the disappointed aspirants cannot OBJ
ject to the appointment of a soldiers
widow

From Woman. for March.

From Woman. for March.
When first thy mother took thee to her heart
Entwining thee in her white arms embrace
And through her tears of JOY smiled on thy
face,
And prayed the sovereign Lord to give thee
grace,
And sweetest purity of soul impart,
A ruby morn lit up the curtaned room,
Thy nut brown eyes peeped forth in beauty s
bloom
The prayer was heard; God blessed thy path of
life
From childhood's dawn till thou becan1'st a
wife.
Crowned with content no shadow intervenes
To cloud the brightness of domestic scenes
But she, the one most worthy of our love,
Before the eve OF age was called above:
And am Fastening to our loved ones tomb.

The State Fair and immigration.

Mr.. W. j. Northen, President of the
Agricultural Society of this State, has
issued circular in which he points out that
the scheme of the Central railroad to bring
immigrants TO this State will be utilized by
the Agricultural Society to make the Sta o
Fair a success, and that the fair in turn will
assist in encouraging immigration
President Northern is an energetic man,
and is ready to lend a helping hand wherever
he sees a chance TO advance the welfare of
the State There is no doubt that the I'M
migration sch me and the State Fair can
be conducted so that one will benefit the
other, and that in that way they can do the
State more good than if they were con-
Quoted independently of each other.
The Central will transport all exhibits TO
the fair free of charge, and a special effort
will be made to induce the counties to make
exhibits. The agent of the immigration
scheme, during the coming summer, will
visit the North in special car in which
will be exhibited the products of Georgia's
mines, forests and farms, and he will or
ganize there excursion parties TO visit the
Stat Fair, where Georgia's resources will
be presented Ill much more attractive and
satisfactory way than they can possibly be
in car.
The result of this union of interests will
be, probably, the largest and best fair the
Agricultural Society has ever held, and
very great increase in the number of immi-
grants to the State The two men in charge
of these interests, the President of the Agri-
cultural Society and the agent of the Cen
trails immigration scheme are well fitted
for their respective duties.

a Zig Difference,

From the Providence Telegram (Den.)
The principal difference between the depend
ent pension bill passed by tine Senate on Thurs
day and the one vetoed by the President last
year is that the new one requires total disa-
olilty on the part of the pensioner, while the
vetoed OH set no definite limit to the amount of
liability that would enttle TO pension.

Senator Riddleberger is Illustrating in a

Mr.. Valentine Winters, of Dayton, O.,
has a very pleasant way of entertaining his
children and grandchildren. At family
dinner the other day there were found
under the plates envelopes containing deeds,
stocks, bonds, etc, amounting to nearly
S5O0.000. In like manner he divided out
100000 in 1882, and it is a very common
thing for his children to find 81 900 checks
under their plates. Mr.. Winters evidently
doesn't intend that his wealth shall be di-
vided among lawyers.

The latest fad in social gatherings Is the
pig party. Everybody in attendance is
given paper and pencil and required to
draw two pigs. The drawing must be made
without taking the pencil from the paper,
and the second pig must be drawn with the
eyes blindfolded after which the namo
is signed. The fun comes in when a com
parison is made, and "A prize is awarded the
best draughtsinan. The person making the
worst drawing is called the pig. This fad
must have originated in Boston, the home
of culture and Sullivan.
