There is 8 loud laugh at the expense OF a gen.
tleman of luxurious tastes whose careless de-
meanor is sure to get him into domestic trouble
before he runs his fun course. How true the
story against him is II is difficult to say but the
laugh is Just as resonant as though 1t were sworn
to by ministers. Mr.. Bouncer, as we will call

shady sidewalk OF Fifth avenue on a recent az

claimed acquaintanceship. The girl smiled

she was invited to leave the avenue for some

templated her ylyacious beauty and realized that
she really admired him. After while the girl
became boi sterous. Raising her glass she looked

A comely young matron with limited means
and vast ambition conquers circumstances in
novel way and greatly to her own satisfaction.
She dons q most elaborate nurses can and
apron, arrays her lovely baby in its very best
and with perambulator, which her own deft
fingers have lined with blue silk and decked
with ribbons, she appears in the park as one of
the SWEETEST OF swell nurses. You may be sure
she is the proudest and most attentive to her
charge of the throng, and the compliments that
the child's beauty ELECTS from passers bring
bloom to her cheek and a sparkle to her eyes
that make her. too, altogether charming, so
that baby and nurse are the admired Of all ad-
mirers. She is sometimes asked whose child
she has and demurely gives her own name.
Once or twice they have been too persistent in
attentions and she has had to make q feint of
appealing to policeman. but usually she makes

cent ruse and the attentions it receives. One af-
