Mrs. Bellamy Hines, Of Hamilton, loaned
her copy of The Quick and the Dead TO
Mrs. Harrison Allen, of Keokuk. When
she left the home Of her friend, Mrs. Hines
said: Snow, Linda, be careful and not let
your girls read that book, for il is too utter
ly awful, you know, for young people to see.
1t is like the book of Solomon's Song"
Ida Hines was the belle Of Hamilton, and
the semi belle of Keokuk also. She fre-
aucntly drove over the bridge 10 visit her
city friends. At last she became daily
traveller to the Allen mansion. and In re-
sponse to her mothers inquiry, she replied /:
I'm going over there. ma, just for roguery,
you know. Mrs. Allen has an awfully
queer book which she keeps locked UP in
her bureau, and the Allen girls, George
and Stella, arc stealing it for an hour every
afternoon whilo Mrs. Allen is taking her
nap, and we are reading II together You

more ''palaver," he Is allowed Ia take his

The Indian, In learning his fate from his
mistress, carries "a lighted torch 10 her

torch she accepts the profiered vows, but IL
she walls herself without extinguishipg IL
she refuses his love.
Chatcaubriand tells OF the lover OF Atala
who gave her a necklace OF nine beads
Three red ones for his love, three violet
ones for his fears, three blue ones for hls
hopes.
a gentleman who was in CORES pondence
with IA lady of my acquaintance sent her a
piece OF card board enclosed In a letter and
requested her TO periorate IL with her "en-
gagement ring" and return TO him.
There is pretty poem which represents
the lover informing his sweetheart that he
is TO be married. She pales, cho6es, tries
TO congratulate him-and In the midst of
her tell-tale confusion he laugbingly adds :
THAT is, hope l AN, though the lady has not
yet consented"
a cute lover he-and the sweetheart, not
oce whit less cunning, regains her color
and answers brightly: "Why, how odd
too am TO be married" A delicious pro-
posal and engagement that.
Personally do not think a man should
ever propose, he should dispose, writes
Ella Wheeler Wilcox. He should never
say: "Will you be my wife;" lie should
be so sure and positive Of success that he
could say: "YOu Will be my wife, even
setting the date and certain that she would
gladly acquiesce 10 his commands. But a
man must be born lover and ruler TO be
able 10 do this.
A wife, ike kiss, should be asked for
with the eyes alone-and then when con-
sent is evident, should be taken without
unnecessary questions or delay.

Ducking on a Wheel.

A Yankee sportsman with a very level
head stocked with original ideas, is one Chad
wick, who has been giving the surviving
ducks Of Long Island something to Quack
about with saddened surprise. Mr. Chad
wick's head is Of the kind that saves its pos
SCISSORS heels He fitted up bicycle for trav-
cling upon the ice, by placing barbs upon the
periphery of the wheel, and devising out rig
gers in the form of small steel runners that
steadied the machine, while its rider was
using his breech loader with precision and eff
feet. When occasion demanded Mr.. Chad
wick would deck his ice bicycle with branches
of evergreen, and herewith pedal silently
and swiftly toward the ducks.
This Birnam wood spectacle being new in
the experience of the birds, they gazed at the
sight with surprise unmixed with fear, inso-
much that MIR. Chadwick, without firing his
muscles could work his win with the fowls
before him While other duck hunters were
toiling over rough ice and falling down on
smooth ice, Chadwick and his one wheeled ar
senal was speeding among the open ponds, or
spinning before stiff breeze in search of
distant shooting grounds. Duck language
must needs be rich in adjectives in order to
the coast of Long Island, when they reach a
safe feeding ground and essay to tell Of the
awful creature that pursued them among the
inlets near Montauk Point.-Pittsburg Bulle-

After bGist cesrtship he married his FIRST
wife, and directly after the ceremony began
thinking Of some intricate problems. With
out saying q word to his bride or the we'd
ding guests he went into bis laboratory and
began work Mrs. Edison knew her husbands
ecosntricities, and finally, becoming sleepy,
retired. When she awoks in the morning ner
husband was still absent, and he did not ap-
pear ali that day or the following night 1t
was just forty-eaght hours after the marriage
had bean performed that Mrs Edison, becom-
ing alarmed, decided upon going into her
husbands workshop, where she found the in
yentor lying On his workbench sleeping r'eace-
fully. BIS wedding clothes were covered with
oils and chemicals. This angered her, and she
roughly shook the sleeping sage. "Go away
from me, he shouted, not knowing where he
was Can't you see I'm thinkingF" II should
say you were, Tommy responded his wife.
Now don't you think it about time you gave
me little attention. "Well, I'll think about
it, as you request" responded the inventor.
"Now please let me alone or fear l shall be
forced to set the new double back action self

Pure American.

Every age, sex and nationality has ITS own
weakness, which is observed and played upon
by the crafty. A certain salesman says tina:
when he particularly wishes to dispose OK
some article of dress, he states it to be Of
French origin
These French shoulders are very becom-
ing to you, madam" he exclaims, admiring-
ly, as some portly dame dons peculiarly cut
garment. II don't believe lady could be
found, out of Paris, who could wear them to
such advantage"
The consequence Of such speech often is
that the purchaser feels herself to be worthy
type Of Partisan danes, and snaps Up the
bargain
However, humbug of any sort is likely at
this clever salesman saw modestly dressed
woman examining some wraps in his depart
ment, and stepping briskly up to her re-
marked:
''Thirty-fve dollars, madam a new
French design. That plating at the back is
the newest invention Of a great French
house"
Indeed" said the lady, quietly. "That
seems odd. Are the garments importedr
'No, they are made in New York, but as
said, the plating which gives them such a
jaunty look, is copied from French model. :"
more and more surprising" said the lady.
