AN ART STUDENT.
WRITTEN FOR THE DrsrArcH.l

He rowed her out to sketch the shore,
And back to paint the sea;
Her board color-box he bore,
Her camp-stool carried he.
He answered meekly when she tailed
Ofall Arts worship yields,
Or miserably silent stalked
Beside her through the fields.
In short, he loved in that wild way
First love alone can know,
And every day he heard her say,
II shall not marry-Eo.n
ST shall not marry; Art so dear
My welded love must be-
Art, noble Arti Oh, glorious spherel
Life holds naught else for me!''
And when abroad she went, alone
10 study, that was tough;
For then he said, with bitter moan,
''She means 1t, sure enough.''
But suddenly one day they met;
A gray-haired man and stout
Walked by her side. She smiled, and yet
She rather seemed put out.
Their warm hands claspeo; his cheek flushed
red,
When, oh, most dire surprise.
sThis is my husband. jack she said;
Dear, this is Jack Van Sise.''
She asked him to her house in town,
And hoped, with friendly grace,
That sometime she should see him down
At her nice country place.
She told him gossip. grave and gay,
And, with touch OF heart.
Her baby's name. but. strange to say,
She never mentioned Art.

SENATOR HIscocK's claim for credit to
the Republican party for an advance of % cents
per bushel on wheat since Congress met, is not
discreet. If the Republican party has pro-
duced the advance in wheat it must be respon-
sible for the proximate cause of the advance.
This puts Senator Hiscock in the position of
going before the farmers of the country, claim
ing that the Republican party has done them
the great service of giving them short crop.

A Pi,t,burg Character,

CPEAKING of rogues, within five minutes Of
this meeting of the detective and thief a
sandy haired well built young man passed into
the place. He was formerly employed on a
Pittsburg evening paper at Harrisburg and
Washington, but OF late years has used the
cover of an honorable profession only to work
confidence schemes at home and abroad BY
some crooked means he obtained admission to
the New York Press Club Having been
caught using the club connection for corrupt
purposes he was turned out in disgrace and
published as confidence man. Later he was
heard from through caDle dispatches as doing
the Ross Raymond act in Europe. And here
he turns up again in New York. 1 have been
looking for the penitentiary doors to close on
this young man for several years, but he seems
to bear a charmed if not a charming life.
What a careeri When the moral balance
wheel Of good-looking young man Of brains
and education gets out of gear it raises old
Uncle Ned with all of the rest of the ma
chinery. CHAS. L. MURRAY.

what Dolls should Do.

A wooden-headed doll should be care
full not to hit her head against her
mammals, lest she should hurt her.
A doll should keep away from the
rocking-chsirs. as the rockers may go
over her and crush her.
A wax doll should avoid the fire, If
she wishes to preserve a good COM
plexion.
Often an old doll with cracked head
and a sweet smile is more beloved than
a new doll with sour face.
1t is a bad plan for dolls to be
stretched out on the floor too often, as
people are apt to tread on them; and a
doll that is trodden on is sure to go into
a decline.
Mariory was reading these rules to
her dolly with very sober face. Then
she laughed.

me than they are for you. Morning
