A Society Woman's Rebuke.

A few years ago strange mistake was
made in New York society. Two ladies
of the same name gave an entertainment
within few doors of each others
houses. Many persons got into the wrong
house. The hostess who gained that day
tina admiring comments of all New York
was the one who received perfect stran-
gers as if they were her best friends, and
made them her friends by that gracious
reception. She knew how awkwardly
they would feel when they found out
their m stake she did oil SIZE could to
prevent their feeling awkwardly while
with her.
The other lady, less we'll bred, said to
n person who hal come into her house
under mistake, Il think you have got
into the wong house."
"Yes, madam. have" sad he. Il
thought before 1 entered it that this was
lady's house"
1t was terrible revenge, but. under the
circumstance, an entirely justifable one.

To be assaulted by the three imps, dyspepsia,

satanic BIRTHS perfectly fiendish. This often
happens. The hateful three, however, soon
whisk away to the neither inferno when Hos

speaking within bounds to say that there is not
in existence medicine 30 widely known as this,
and few indeed which have received such posi-
