Little Rosie, walking slowly past the vertlant
meadow, sees
Many cows, and some standing, others lying
meath the trees.
In the road stands little Rosie, caring not for dust
or mud
While her eyes are bent upon them ms they calmly
chew their cud.
Great surprise her face expresses, for while her
lips are dumb;
Then she cries out: "Mamma Mamma. all those
cows are chewing gum"

many interesting extracts from European jour

upon European trade Of the coming confer

Then he tossed twenty-five cents to .

One Of the latest fads Of Baltimore girls
says the american, is to dress in blacb
from head 10 foot, with vel and gloves 10
match, and then, borrowing Q neighbor'S
child, show Il around thecity. OF course
the natural suppOsitiOn Is that the child
iS not borrowed and that the young lady
l. widow. Az q widow is generally sup
posed % be ready toreeOntract matTiniony,
the sympathies Of the susceptible young
man are quite readily aroused, first cur
Osity rs TO how long the ehild's father has
been dead, then, Whist he died Of, and.
since the widow seems to noun for him,
how she must have cared Tor the dear
departed. And, Il she did care for him,
why might she not care also for another.
and why might not he be tine fortunate
individual, especially Il the first husband
left cash enough for the support Of two,
or three, as the easemightbe. Of course,
when acquaintance follows, the apparent
widowhood can be easily and innocently
explained, and the desired happy result
follow.
