LOVE AND SHOP.
How Arabella Learned Something About
Print Shop Lingo.

Bow Arabella Learned something ADous
Print Shop Lingo.
And now, dear Bess, I must tell you
about the charming call which / en-
ioyed from my fiance, Mr.. Stubpen,
last evening. He is so witty, and does
say such delightful things, you knowl
I don't wonder that he is popular
newspaper man. He came rather early,
and we drifted to the sofa, as usual,
and began talking about the usual sub
iects, when he suddenly remarked that
he was afraid he had actually gone to
press without thinking of the leading
articlel asked him what the ''lead-
ing article" was, and he said that in
love it was a kiss-an article of
'sunvarying priority" whatever that
means). | blushed, of course, but
said nothing; and presently he apollo
gized for talking shop, and asked if he
could print kiss on my lips.
I said didn't suppose could pre-
vent his attending to his own profess
sional duties if he chose to; and SO
well, he printed may be an edition; l
don't know how many. Then what
do you suppose the unconscionable
wretch asked mes He asked if ]
thought he had made an error. told
him I thought he had, certainly.
''Then," said he, there is nothing for
me to do but take proof and see"
Then he kissed me about six times
morel / couldn't help laughing, be-
cause do know what "proof" is,
and I ought to have been smart
enough to have prevented him.
About three minutes later ne asked
me if I could let him have 'revise."
Of course I hadn't the slightest ideo
what revise was, but replied that If
there was one in the house I would get
it for him. He told me to sit perfectly
still and he would help himself. And
he didl ct seems that ''revise" is a
second proof
Mamma came in just then, and Mr..
Stubpen made only two jumps from
the sofa to the piano stool and began
playing "Abide With Me-" I thought
I should die laughingl Fred is just
| the funniest, incest, handsomest fellow
| in the world After mamma went h =
began to talk shop again-about 'set-
ting up and locking up the form"
and ''holding copy" he said I was just
copy of dear mamma), and lots of
other delightfully."- funny nonsense
that I have forgotten.
I began to think he never would go,
but about IL o'clock messenger boy
came with a note from the managing
editor of the paper Fred is connected
with, and it seemed to brighten him al
most to death. He dashed away with
gut even his hat, and heard him NUT
ter something about "scare head" and
double lead" I thought it must be

Jewelry Statesmen In New York.


"How much9" inquired a tall, sty-
ishly dressed man, holding up a dia-
nond scarf pin and addressing the
principal of Broadway wholesale
jewelry firm.
''Thirty-five dollars-b ottom price;
it's cheap at that"
"Good until when2" queried the
man.
'Not later than2 pm"
'"Then she goes" and the stylishly
dressed man placed the pin carefully
in his case, deposited it in his inside
pocket and walked out.
To reporter the principal said:
'"That's one of our many customers
who take jewelry to sell on specula-
ton. At this time of year it is quite a
common thing for such persons to buy
articles on speculation in that fashion.
II shall know that if he does not
return that pin by 2 o'clock he has
sold it, and will bring me $35. He
may get $45 or $50 forit. That, how
ever, is his affair.""
"And a commission besides2"
"No; we don't allow any commits
sion on such transactions. See here,
and he brought out his memorandum
book, 1--WE have no less than fourteen
transactions entered precisely of the
same kind, varying in amount from
$25 to $780,"
When asked if he lost any articles
by letting them out in this way the
principal responded:
''It is so rare that I cannot tell you
when the last case occurred.

Pin WOrnns.

A Connecticut subscriber asks in
formation as to the cause and cure of
pin worms. The pin worm is about
the size of small sewing thread, be-
tween a quarter and half inch in
length, injecting the rectum and in
testines, producing great irritation
and distress in the arms. 1t breeds in
great numbers and is most torment
ing pest, especially to children, irri-
tation often producing in the little
ones what is known as worm fever"
Pin worms may be exterminated by
injections. Turpentine is good, but
carbolic acid is perhaps better. The
injections should be composed Of car
bolic acid, ten to twenty drops in pro-
portion to pint of warm water. Give
these injections two or three times q
day and especially before retiring. AS
the worms seek the arms for breeding
it is advisable to keep them well oiled;
use lard or antiseptic ointment, fol-
low with a slight dose of calcined
magnesia at night See that sheets
and night clothes are changed nightly
after being thoroughly washed and
boiled. Herald of Health.

Indian Fables o. Animal life.

The Indians Of North America had large
stock of stories resembling the fables of
Esop. They are stories Of animals. and
many of them are in form as if first told by
animals, not unlike that of the Georgia ne
gro stories popularzed by Uncle Remus
Mr.. Gordon reports the following from
New Brunswick:
The clumsy butt Of all the other animals
was always Muwcen, the bear. and the
clevereSt were the panther, SholSs and the
tshcrmarten Pekquan, but these had not
the same rank with the tortoise, who, TO my
surprise, was considered the great lord and
chief among the beasts. although his awk-
wardness and helpleSsness led him into
many unpleasant and ludicrOus positions.
There was one very comical story Of his
going out hunting, drawn on s,cd or tobOg-
gan by two moose. OF course he met with
many misadventUres. The boughs swept
him Oft his sled without its being perceived
by his seeds: ne got entangled in crcepers,
and finally his team became SO tired of their
load that they made hole for him in the
ice and left him there.
But, by dint Of subtlety. he shot the
moose which they were in search OF, while
his companions returned empty handed
On another occasion he fell into the hands
OF enemies and escaped from them only by
a series OF clever stratagems.

COmpresSed Paper Wheels.

II Is stated that the iron wheels on the
coaches and tenders OF locomotives viii
soon give way TO the compressed paper
wheel. Engineer John Campbell OF the
Union Pacific has operated engine No. 800,
the tender of which is equipped with com
pressed paper wheels, eighteen months,
during which time he has averaged $500
miles IA month, or making the lineal dis
lance travelled ~ 600 mics The wheels
are but slightly impaired by this service.
Being tritie convex, they have been turn
ed down, which, it is said, fits them for the
same amount of service again, and also that
they will withstand a repetition of the
turning down" process, which gives them
triple service and durability In other
words, the compressed paper wheel will
stand 243 900 miles of travel. The limited
guarantee Of an iron wheel ia 10000 miles.
The iron wheel costs sl2 and the compress
ed paper wheel $50. Nearly all the new
coaches OF the Union Pacific are being
equipped with compressed paper wheels,
the tire being steel and the boxing iron.
