stared at her face-not for an instant
merely, but protractedly and insolently,
in the unmistakable manner Of the pro-
fesslon al masher. The lovely girl was an
honor to her sex at that moment. She
held her head at the same angle as be-
fore, .gazed proudly straight ahead. and
never gave the slightest sign that the
staring brute was in the world. Within
half minute the masher dropped behind

A beau took letter from his pocket in
order to read something from it to fair
cousin who sat by his side.
"Ah! she mailed you a kiss, the
girl remarked.
''Not that L know of" was the fell
low 5 reply.
''Look there and she pointed to a
crinkled place down at the corner of the
sheet, such as damp spot might have

sentimental thing? A girl presses the

when she shot a look Of dIsdain upon him
he was sure of it. He quickly drew q
card from his pocket and scribbled some
thing on the back OF It. Then, paying
his check and getting into his overcoRt,
he walked directly over to the young
lady's table and placed the card before
her.
''It is your dnty 5" said he, "to read
that card You have no right to con-
slider Yourself insulted when you have not
been in the least.
Without waiting for q reply the gentle
man left the room. After waiting few
moments the girl caught up the card and
read it. 1t bore the name of one of the
best painters of the country, and the
writing upon it was as follows:
81 have been looking for a perfect
nose for nearly year without success.
My last picture needs one badly. As [
looked up suddenly from my duck your
nose was sharply outlined against the
window pane. If you have suddenly
come upon the OBJECT for which your
heart has longed through many months
you will be able to imagine my sensations
when discovered your nose. 1 scrutin-
lied it long enough to make vivid men
tai note Of it. But / am forced to say
that it is better in its natural form than
when turned up in disdain.
The girl crushed the card between her
fingers and carefully put it in her port
monnaie Then she dashed out of the
restaurant. "And if Julia encounters
that artist again in her travels, - said
the narrator, 81 am inclined to think
that he will be master of the situation. -

countries.

Fifth-We propose that municipalities gen.

street cars, and such other municipal services
as are now discharged by corporations, to the

Now lay aside your money
And wait for falling snow,
Then harness up old "Shellbark''
And to Augusta 60.
Take all your greenbacks With you
For goods are selling low
In every store upon the street
Where e'er you chance to 60.
Some firms are selling lower
Than the lowest ever knew,
While others beat them ten per cent
As sure's you live they do.
Why, Soule is selling bed springs,
The woven wire so fine,
For just two dollars seventy-fve,
They used to sell for nine.
And mattresses, tops made of wool
As.soft as soft can be.
They say, can now be bought Of Soule
For something less than three.
And hardwood bedsteads. oak or ash,
Two seventy five will buy,
This price you know is very low
At five they'd not be high.
Extension tables, too, we have,
Three fifty and for four,
Oak, ash and walnut, nice and smooth
No man can sell them lower.
A parlor suit in finest plush,
Six pieces all complete,
Will now be sold for thirty Ave,
Best bargain on the street.
Those dinner sets that sold for ten
Are going now at eight;
Unless the snow comes pretty soon
We fear you'll be too late.
On Smyrna rugs, Soule beats the world
Let him the story tell;
And at the prices they are marked
No doubt they all will sell.
Those nickel clocks. alarm attached,
Like silver do they shine,
Are selling now without reserve
For the sum of ninety-nine.
Now let me say for once and all
can no longer talk,
I'm bound to sell within three weeks,
The balance of my stock.
