Don't Want to be Like Men.
THE REASON WOMEN NEVER READ
NEWSPAPERS ON THE STREET
CARS.

"Anyone riding much on the
street cars will notice one peculiar.
ity in regard to women passengers"
said an old conductor; "they never
read a newspaper On the cars. /
often stop the car for some woman
to get a paper Of newsbOy. She'll
be in the greatest hurry till she
gets it, and then she'll fold it up
kind OF small and tuck it away IN
her workbag.7
"N hat do you think is the reason
Of it," asked a passenger.
81 guess they think it would
look too much like the men-kind
OF strong.minded to read it. Pve
seen one or two take sly look at
the headings, but they never read
to amount to anything then. And
Pm mortal glad they don't. If all
the women in the cars took to read

the fares collected. Only the Other
day a man took a button out OF bis
vest pocket and gave it to me while
he was reading his paper, and they
sit up behind them sheets and
never zee their own wives standing
up long side of them. There il
one woman that reads a paper just
like a man when she rides down
town, but then she is a politician

The Horse Knew His Man.

CORKER.

BOSTON TO THE FRONT WITH A
CORKER.
Not long ago there was Ger.
tain English general III India who
had the misfortune To be extremely
fat and heavy. His private charger
was big animal, we'll up to his
weight, if any horse could be 80,
but of such a disobliging charac.
ter that he utterly refused to carry
his master. Whenever the gener.
al came Out to mount hlm, the
horse would throw himself fat on
the grOun and refuse to get up.
Finally, the, general sold him. Two
years afterward the same officer
went to the frontier on a tour of
inspection, aud as he travelled IN
palanquin he was obliged to Dor.
row a charger for review purposes.
There was some difficulty in find.
in gone up to his weight.
"At length" so the story runs,
"an officer resigned 10 him power
ful horse for the occasion, which
was brought out, duly caparisoned,
in front of the line. The general
came forth from his tent aud pro.
ceeded to mount, but the instant
the horse saw him advance he
dung himself fiat upon the sand,
and neither blows nor intreaties
could induce hun to rise. 1t was
the generals old charger, who
from the moment of quitting his
service had nev er once practiced
the artifice until his second meet
ing. The general, no was an ex.
ceedlngly good.humored man, join.
ed heartily in the universal shout
that ran through the whole line on
witnessing this ludicrous Affair."

GIRLS WHO ARE IN DEMAND.

The girls that are wanted are good girls
Good from the heart TO the lips;
Pure as the lily is white and pure,
From its heart to its sweet leaf tips.
The girls that are wanted are home girls
Girls that are mothers right hand,
That fathers and brothers can trust TO-
Aud the little ones understand.
Girls that are fair on the hearthstone,
And pleasant when nobody sees
Kind and sweet to their own folks,
Ready and anxious to please.
The girls that are wanted are wise girls,
That know what to do or say,
That drive with a smile or soft word
The wrath of the household away.
The girls that are wanted are girls OF sense,
Whom fashion can never deceive;
Who can follow whatever is pretty,
And dare what is silly to leave.
The girls that are wanted are careful girls,
Who count what a thing will cost
Who use with a prudent, generous hand,
But see that nothing Is lost.
The glrls that are wanted are girls with
hearts
They are wanted for mothers and wives;
Wanted to cradle in loving arms
The strongest and frallest lives.
The clever. the witty, the brilliant girL
There are few who can understand
But, oh for the wise, loving, home girls,
There's a constant, steady demand.

A QUEER BIT OF HISTORY.
HOW THE BRITISH FLEET WAS
THREATENED WITH A COW.
HIDE

THREATE ENED WITH A COW
HIDE.
Durng the war of 1872 a Mon
tauk cattle keeper gained a signal
victory over the English feet, then
lying in GARDENERS Bay, under
command of Admiral Hardy. Mon
tauk was then a commons for the
towns of East and Southampton.
These towns.people pastured 1000
or 200 head of cattle on Montauk
during the summer. These cattle
we're in charge Of three keepers,
who lived about three miles apart.
| think the name of the keeper in
question was Pane. He conquered
the English fleet with a canoe, a
rawhlde, and a crew of one Indian.
1t came about thus;
The English had come ashore IN
their boats and killed one of the
cattle is his charge. They wanted
fresh beef and they took 1t. Mr..
Paine did not propose that his
herds should be thus ravaged with
impunity. He armed himself with
a rawhide. Next he found an In
dian. He pressed the Indian with
his rawhide and forced him to pad
die of to the admiraps ship. Mr..
Paine was hailed from the ship
and asked what he wanted. He
said he wanted to come on board,
He was allowed to come on board.
lie was then asked what he
wanted. He wanted to see the
admiral. What did he want to see
the admiral for 7 To be paid for
one of the cattle in his care which
mad been slain by the admiraps
people. What was he going to
do about it In case he was not
gaid they inquired. Well, he
was going to take it out of the
English feet. What was he going
to take it out with ? With a raw
hide.
The admiral was informed that a
Yankee was on board threatening
to lick the feet with an armament
of one canoe, one Indian, and a
rawhide. The admiral was not
alarmed, but he was amused and
interested He came on deck in
his cooked hat and epaulettes and
all the glitter and glory of the IL
tied British tar Of eighty.Odd years
ago.
The admiral and Mr.. Palne con-
fronted each other. Mr.. Paine did
not back down. He repeated his
demand and his threat.
"Well," said the admiral. "you
are the bravest Yankee I've seen
yet"
He ordered him to be paid. Mr..
Paine received the value OF his
slain beast in hard, shining, yellow,
British gold. Then with his force
he rOwed ashore, having gained a
brave but bIoodless victory. -Sd9

AN OUTDOOR FLORIST.

Mrs. Crosby was busy getting
the children ready for school. She
took a strong thread and needle,
and sewed up a rip in Annle's boot,
stitched a seam in Lenas glove
and went round and round the
coarse straw hat of her only boy,
Bobby. Then the lunch basket
was packed, aud the three children,
after a loving kiss, started of tor
their halfmile walk to the nearest
school in the suburb of the city.
Their home was within a mile @:
the metropolis, and the Old'tash-
ioned cottage where they lived had
belonged to Mr.. CrOsby's mother
long before 1t was built around as
now so as to seem part of the city,
though it escaped the taxes. But
as Mrs. Crosby sat down TO dress
the baby, her mind wandered to
many things connected with her
household cares, and to nothing so
much as the scanty limit of her
purse to her expenditures. Oh, if
she only had some way of buying
many of the little things they need
ed, without going to Mr., Crosby :
She seldom called him "JOhn," and
never when these mental recrlmi-
nations were going on in her mind.
He was good husband and a
bountlful provlder; her wishes were
always gratided, as far as he could
purchase anything, bnt then be
often bought things she did not
want and lett her in need Of other
things she did want. CHOW selfish
men were," she thought; "they
always want to hold the purse
strings and to spend the money.
I'm sure | work as hard as any
/ bookkeeper and yet have no pay,
and never a dollar to call my own.
1 would rather do without anything
| need than ask John Crosby for
money.
BY this time the little one was IN
the cradle and its mother picked up
a stocking she was knitting for
Lena, and at the same time took
up the daily paper and laid it on
her knee "Husb, my baby, slum-
Der sweetly," she sang IN gentle
loving droue, "slumber, slumbel
sweet" All who but a mother
could do iourlold work, and all Sc
