A HANDKERCHIEF SPECIALIST.

The other morning, as the departing
Cunard steamer was casting off its lines
and swinging out into the steam, an
elderly looking business man hastily
embraced lady who was one OF the
passengers, and rushed down the gang
plank to the wharf.
Going hurriedly up to a melancholy
loafer who was watching the busy
crowd, the gentleman drew him be-
hind pile of freight and said:
"Want to earn a dollar2"
"You bet"
"You see that lady in black on the
bridge there7" said the citizen.

"Well, that's my wife, going to Eu-

me to stand here for the next twenty
minutes, while the steamer is backing
and filling around, so as to wave my
handkerchief and watch her out OF
sight. See?"

"Well, I'm too busy to fool around
here stock to buy, biz to attend to.
She's little near-sighted SO I'll just
hire you to wave the handkerchief in
stead. It's big one, with red bor-
der, and as long as she sees it, she'll
think it's me. Come up to 2o2 Wall
street when they are we'll off, and I'll
pay you."
"Sposin' she looks through tele-
scope or suthin' ?"
"In that case you'll have to bury
your face in the handkerchief and do
the great weep act"
"That'll be fifty extra"
"All right. Time is money. Look
sharp now! You can kiss your hand
at, say, one dime per kiss" and snap.

felt as if my going there had been or
was special providence, for it kept
the wolf from the door.
81 must tell you an incident con-
nected with that morning. At the close
of the service an old lady came up, and,
taking my hand, SAID:
"'My dear, you sing like an angel,
if you do look quaint, referring to my
clothes.
"a day or two after then, l saw an
advertisement in daily paper for a
school teacher. Being a graduate of
Lynchburg Female College, l present
ed myself as a candidate. An old
Scotch servant admitted me. She evi-
IDENTITY was not favorably impressed with
my girlish appearance, for l did not
look very much like the typical school
ma'am. Still, she smiled grimly as If
she regarded it as kind OF joke, and
conducted me upstairs to the principal,
who was already engaged in the duties
OF the day. The turned me over to
him as "a Miss who thinks she can
teach school, Her manner indicated
her state of mind on the subject. His
first question was to ask me if l could
read Latin. On being assured that l
could, he proceeded with my examina-
ton right before the school, and I an
swered questions or finished questions
which he began. Finally he wrote on

hand and said: Madam, you have

However, we preserved our incognlto

When Gen. Grant became President
he entertained Gen. and Mrs. Pickett
as guests at the White House, and from
that time on many tokens of esteem
have been extended to Mrs. Pickett
especially since her widowhood, the
last of which was at the unveiling O
