An irish Gentleman.

The seats were all full and one was
occupied by a rough-looking Irishman.
At one of the stations couple of we'll
bred and intelligent looking young
ladies came in to procure seats, but
seeing no vacant ones were about to
go into another car when Patrick rose
hastily and offered them his seat with
evident pleasure. ''But you will have
no seat yourself" responded one of the
ladies with smile, and with truest
politeness hesitating to accept it.
'Never We moind that" said the
Hibernian. yer welcome to it. I'd

many ladies will show that a trifie OF

You can tell her by her manner
When you meet her on the street,
For she walks as if she meant it,
Treading squarely on both feet
If some friend should introduce you,
You would know her by talk
Which is fully as decided
AS the manner Of her walk.
She is versed in many matters,
And she always has view
Which she clings to in a manner
That would shame the strongest glue.
But she is so sweet and winsome,
(This her anger will allay),
You could talk with her forever
just to let her have her way.

steelton Pa.) Advocate, Sept. 81.
Christopher Gould, the assistant dispatcher
of the Philadelphia and Reading railroad,
who resides at 800 North street, Harrisburg,
last Wednesday received $4,000 from the
Louisiana State Lottery at New Orleans. He
held one-twentieth Of ticket No STA, which
drew the first capital prize Of $500, 900 In the
drawing Of the 10th inst. On Monday OF last
week Mr.. Gould delivered his ticket to Albert
Leeds, OF Steelton, agent of the United States
Express comany, who forwarded said ticket.
On Wednesday Leeds received the full amount
Of the drawing, in ready cash money, namely
$4,000. He at once sent for Mr.. Gould, to
whom 1t was delivered that same day.
We are happy to say that this sudden
wealth has not fallen into the hands of Coal

less manner. But on the other hand 1t has
come into the hands Of discretonate and
worthy man, who will make proper use Of it.
To be sure he may possibly feel somewhat
elated, as he has good reason to be, but when
he was handed over this fortune he was as
cool and retcent as judge when he passed
sentence This sum certainly comes in very
nice, as he had very little more than his
wages to fall back on.

A physician, in conversation with a
reporter, made this statement: "When

himself with a strong cord. A long
garter will do if nothing else is handy.
When the cramp comes on take the
cord, wind it around the leg over the

in each hand and give it sharp pull,
one that will hurt little. Instantly
the cramp will cease, and the sufferer

According TO the official report of the
French minister of war the mortality
among the French troops has fallen
from twelve to eight per thousand DUR
ing the last year. From 1875 to 1887
there have occurred 141, GAS cases OF
typhoid fever and 21,116 deaths. The
percentage of this disease has mataEially
decreased of late, owing to the attention
that is being paid to pure water supply
in the barracks. The value of vaceina-
ton is proved by the fact that the num-
Der of smallpox cases has fallen from
l,042 to 243, and these were mostly
among recruits.
