NV Mistress and NV Master.

A host of things have to do to please my
Master Must, mas am;
And oft the harder that work the harder is his
crust, ma'am;
And then that tickle little dame, capncious
Mistress Chance, sir,
Whenever she thinks it to pipe, must get up
and dance, sir
For Master Must and Mistress Chance they
drive me fast and faster;
OH sad the fate of one who serves q mistress
and master.
My Master Must, his tiresome tasks to me will
daily give, ma'am,
And what can his bondsman do? since must
work to live, ma'am
From tyrant customs ball and chain he viii
not set me free. ma am;
For must co as others do, whatever that
may be- ma am,
I'm sure hear his harsh, stern voice the mo-

must bend or break, ma am.
l never know when Mistress Chance will at my
side start up, sir;
And jufu as I'm about to drink will make me
spill my cup, sir
Though greater goddess never lived in old
myth-rnaking days, sir.
She will not crook her finger small, for all my
prayers and praise, sir;
From her ask success the same as others

Must, ma'am
Until the dawning of the day returning me to

Beyond these tyrants' vast domain there is a
realm far vaster;
Thereof is Chance not mistress; nor yet is Must
the master.

Senator Stanford off His Guard.
From the WoshiR0ton Post.

Senator Stanford was chatting in the marble
room with a friend last week, when Senator
Stewart approached him and said that q lady of
his acquaintance would like to speak to him on
a matter of business Senator stanford replied
that his secretary ordinarily disposed of minor
business matters, but tn t if the lady was a
friend of his (Stewart's) he would see her per
s7naliy. lhereupon the lady was SHOWN in to
the senator.
What can do for your" he incurred.
In very matter-Of-fact way the visitor I'M
folded package and displayed a very gorgeous
book cover, evidently an agents sample.
Il have a book for which am taking orders, -
she said, and would like your patronage
The senator flushed up at the discovery that
he mad been trapped, but. thinking that by the
sacrifice of dollar or so he could escape, he
quietly asked:
"Wha. is the price of this book?'
1T is q remarkable compilation of Grand
Army souvenirs. wonderfully illustrated, and
the price is $780,, she replied.
With shade of indignation and reproof in
his voice, the senator cut off further explana-
tons.
1t is useless for you to say any more.'' he
said. Il have never seen a book, unless it was
an exceedingly rare one, that was worth 500.
Because happen to have a little more money
than the average citizen hes not changed my
opinion Of the valuA of books. | would Just as
soon think of burning up 500 as investing it as
you suggest. Good-day''
The agent was about as near dazed as q book
ag mt can get after the senator concluded, and
the interview ended right there.

' Severely Rebuked.

The Chambers, Forakers, Shepards, Hal
steads and others, VINO picture the south as
the home of Iawlessness and as the only sec
ton Of the country in which voters are de-
MED their rights, are continually being re-
buked in a manner most unexpectei to
them. An instance of this was when
the Boston people, irrespective of party,
made a handsome contribution to the Con-
federate Soldiers Home at Austin,
and the rebuke was made more
pointed when the people Of
New York set to work to help that institu-
ton, such men as Clauacey N. Depew being
prominent in the move, and the newspaper
generally Of that city approving it. Ne of
the Foraker ilk could hardly help realizing
their httleness when things of this sort were
brought home to them. They have worked
to keep alive the animostiies elgeldeeed by
the war, but the measure of their success
has not been great. They don't occupy
very enviabls place just now in
the estimation Of the people
If they would come south and look around
them, they would $50 that their misrepre-
sensations have not kept northern immi-
grants from settling here, or northern
capitalists from making investments in
southern enterprises. Some of the best and
most highly respected residents of the south
have come from tho north since the var,
and southern Industries are paying divi-
bends to many northern capitalists Ex-
Mayor Hewitt in a recent speech
said that nowhere except in the south could
be seen such a wonderful picture of recu-
peration and progress. Mr.. He lit was the
more forcibly impressed with these things,
because until recently he had not visited
the south since 1860. Comparing the indus
trial condition of the south OF that year
with that Of to-day, it is not at all surpris-
ing that be should be somewhat dazed. The
south has made and is making really WON
derful progress Its industries are not as
great as those of the north, but they are in
creasing rapidly. The north will have to
knuckle down to business to ma iptain its
lead many years longer.

exclaimed:
''Oh, you can't come in--Emily the mumps ~
That makes three in the last two days" the
young man muttered as no went down the

Arts of the Chicago Damsel.
From The CHICAGO Herald.


Why is it that young lady in street car
likes to appear vivacious and pretty in the eyes
of the strangers about her? She does, though.
There may be nothing of the 1irt about her,
and she may be qnick TO repel, with whitening
glance, any advances upon the part of a strang
young man, but she does like to appear bright
and winsOme in her manner. She viii slyly wet
her ruby lips to give them more Of a color, and
will cast arch glances from her more or less
pretty eyes She thirsts for male admiration,
and exercises many neat little tricks to obtain
it, If she secs some old man in She car-so ne
old gentleman whom she knows througl her
parents, but whom she would be very chilly to
under ordinary circumstances-she hastens to
recall herself to him, in order that she may
bring into play, in a chat with some one, those
pretty little arts of conversation which viii
cause the men sitting across the way to lay
aside their papers and watch her. II she can
do this, she has gained her point and is happy.

Congressman Colman, of Louisiana, has
put his foot in it, SO to speak. He said the
other day: "If ! recommend any man to
Office who is not honest, who is not compe-
tent, or who is not good republican, |
have only to be told of it and | will with
draw my recommendation. or course Mr.
Colman can't make a single recommends
ton without having charges of dishonesty,
or incompetency, preferred against his can
didate, aud as the Republican party in the
south is not very reputable, as a whole, it
is probable that the charges would be sus-
tanned in a number of instances. BY the
way, it has been stated that the first man
appointed on Mr.. Colman's recommends
ton is not everything he ought to be. Mr..
Kursheedt was named for United States
marshal for the Eastern district of Louis
lana, tho other day, and it is now charged
that his firm was guilty Of some very ques-
tionable things connected with its contract
to furnish marble for the New Orleans Gus
tom house.

From the SomerUitle Journal.
He was q very courteous man,
With manners perfect quite;
No one was ever more urbane,
Or could be more polite.
To hear him murmur. THANK you, sir!''
Was really quite treat;
To see him bow, with inborn grace,
Was happiness complete.
But though 2 man be most polite,
Some time he's sure TO slip
From grace, and once cruel fate
Made even this one trip.
For one day a sweet girl said Yes
(How strange are Cupid's pranks),
And then he lost her, once for all,
Because he murmured, "Thanks"

The Evolution of Advertising.

The ne hod5 of advertising have under
gone great change in recent years
Formerly merchants proceeded on the IDEA
that the wants of the people were governed
entirely by the seasons, and consequently
they advertised only during certain parts
of the year, and at the end Of the season
nearly al. Of them boxed up considerable
stocks Of goods to carry over to the next
season. They have found out, however,
that the wants of the people are constant,
and that they are governed by other things
than changing fashions and seasons. They
have found out also that the best way to
get rid of surplus stock and to avoid stag
nation in business at certain periods is to
advertise the year round.
Several Of the most successful merchants
of New York have discussed this matter
lately, and what they say is worthy of at
tentioE, coming, as it does, from high
authority on advertising. Rogers, Peet &,
Co. now spend about an equal sum each
month for advertising, and they have found
that the experiment pays They say that
there is always a sufficient demand for
any article to dispose of it if it
IL adVertlsed JudlcIousIys tnat Cae nrst
want of the people is merchandise, and
next a knowledge Of the merchandise H.
O'Neill & Co, Stern Bros, r. FL. Macy &
Co., and many other leading mercha ats
have adopted the same plan. and they agree
that there Is no need to carry over heavy
stocks, and that advertising is as necessary
and almost as profitable in the duller season
as in the buster ones.
Tie mercantile world has realized that
advertising is as much business matter as
the employment of clerks or the selection
of goods. Strict attention to this branch of
business has made many merchants
wealthy, while others who have not at
tached much Importance to it have won
dered at their want Of success. They simply
have not kept up with the times.

Chauncey NJ. Depew was offered the Eng
lish mission by President Harrison six
weeks before the inauguration, and that he
refused il. He was then offered cabinet
position, which he also refused, his reason
in both instances being that he could not
afford to give up his position as president
Of the New York Central railroad
company. He would have made
some excellent post prandial speeches
in London, or he would have
caused even President Harrison to
smile by relating funny things at the cabi-
net meetings, but outside of that nobody
knows how great his services to the coun-
try would have been.

The right of the great and only Mr.. Nc.
Allister, the leader of the select four hum
bred of New York, to follow his own sweet
will with regard to the management of the,
coming centennial ball in that city has been
disputed, and by a member in high stand
ing of the select circle Mr.. Stuyvesant
Fish, a gentleman with long pedigree, and
the chairman of the committee on the ball,
has ordered Mr.. McAllister not to make
public the names of those who will partici-
pate in the great quadrille, as that act will
devolve upon the committee. He also
intimated that Mr.. McAllister had
previously exceeded his authority.
His letter was couched in diplo-
matte language, but, boiled down, it was
such as caused the blue blood of the exclu-
sive MIR. McAllister to rush through his
veins quite as rapidly as if he had been an
ordinary individual He told Mr.. Fish,
also automatically, of course, that he was
the manager of the ball, and that he didn't
propose to be lectured or scolded or ordered
by any other member of the committee,
and he begged Mr.. Fish mot to write again
to me in the tone of yours of the Sth"
What will BE- the outcome of this nobody
knows; in fact, nobody seems to dare to
conjecture, aud the public can only await
developments with bsted breath.

Unkind Treatment of Miss Anderson

Unkind Treatment of Miss Anderson.
The New York Tribune said the other
day: "Oae Ct the worst habits of O pecul-
lar school of jouru alism is that of hasten
ing to charge insanity upon any victim of
nervous prostration." No doubt the Tri-
bu1,e had in mind the case of Mary Ander-
son, the actress, and its comment could
hardly be better put in SO few words Be-
fore Miss Anderson returned to this coun-
try she filled'a long engagement in England,
where she sought to improve herself in her
art. Probably she needed rest when she
reached New York, but she did not
take it. She rehearsed during the
day and appeared before audiences at night.
She Travelled by rail from one city to an
other, and railroad travel under the most
favorable circumstances is not pleasant to
most people. 1t is particularly unpleasant
to nervous people. Players have frequently
to go from the theater to the depot, and on
arrival at their destination from the depot
to the tneater, and their only relaxation
must be had on the train. This may not
have been the case with Miss Anderson, but
at any rate she was severely taxed, and
victim of nervous prostration. The report
was circulated that she was insane There
is no evidence that she is, so far as the
public knows. Those in position to know
say she is not
OF course those who circulated the re-
port have some sort of an excuse to make
for having done So They say that Miss
Anderson belongs to the public, and that the
public have a right to know what is the
matter VITA her; that when they approached
her physician and her brother for informa-
ton, those gentlemen maintained a sug-
gestive silence" and that this want of
candor resulted in exaggerated reports. 1t
is not creditable to certain newspapers,
however, that, although Miss Anderson's
physician and her brother have denied the
reports they persist in printing and en-
larging upon them. AS the Tribune says,
at is time to call halt in this sort of
thing

Is this Roderick Random Butler of Tennessee,
who has the support of large number of con-
gressmen for a prominent position under the
administration, the man of that same name who
was found to have sold West Point cadetship
while he was member of congress, and whom
majority of the house votet to expel for this
and other dishonest practices? 1t is to be hoped
not, but he probably is the same man.
