perhaps you don't believe that such
q message as this was ever sent, but l
would show some of them to you if it
wasn't against the rules.
"We fellows on the wire enjoyed
quite an amusing incident not very long
ago, in which Sophia sort of gave away
Johns brilliant scheme of popping the
question by wire. We surmised that
this brace of folly's victims had been
conducting correspondence for some
time, which the artful John culmi-
mated with the following dispatch,
which was evidently intended to draw
forth an answer to an entirely differ
ent question:
SOPHIA: Did you receive my last
letter? JOHN.
Sophia, in her ecstatic delight, evi-
IDENTIFY understood the query in diff
ferent sense from that which the ordi-
nary reader Of the epistle would. and,
with joy and exultation depicted in
every ineament of her countenance,
she proceeded to the telegrapher's
sanctum and left the following to be
forwarded to the flower of her affec-
tions:
- ".JoHN: Yes. How about next
Christmas SOPHIA
"This gave the thing dead away, and
John was much chagrined when he re-
ceived it. 1t accomplished it's purpose,
nevertheless, and now the couple are
soaring in the rapturous realms of
double bliss. "-Le,Ciston Journal

are loud and joyful. When girl is
born the best that the parents can say
is: well, girls are also of some use"
In some districts of China, especially
in time of war or famine, poor people
are sometimes guilty of destroying
their female infants. But the educated
Chinese disapprove of this custom,
and societies exist for its suppression
by aiding poor parents with money
when a girl is born to them and by
prosecuting such as are guilty of its
practice. The reason for this popular
aversion to female progeny lies chiefly
in the fact that girls in China are be-
trothed while yet very young and some
times leave their own parents to live
in the homes of their prospective hus-
bands long before they are married.
In Chinese proverb girls are called
"fine bamboo shoots springing up out
side the fence"-that is, outside their
fathers homes. The significance of
this saying will be apparent when it is
known that the bamboo tree is the most

Love by Wire.

Said Maine telegraph operator to
the writer the other day: "You
wouldn't think that spoony lovers
would resort to such public means of
correspondence as the telegraph for
the transmission of their sweet little
messages of love and devotion, would
you? They do. Just the same.
Very often a certain young man in
this place, if he does not regularly re-
ceive letter from the future source of
his Joy and happiness, rushes here
with crestfallen countenance and files
q message like this:

@You needn't purchase things" says she,
With superior smile,
II use your common household goods,
For them are all the style"
And with little gilt and such,
She fixed us up SO fine,
That when l looked about the house
hardly knew twas mine.
Well pa and me- at first, were pleased,
But pa soon cried in wrath,
@Where is the old snow shovel gomez
want to make q path"
And there 1T WAS a painted up
With many bud and rose,
And hanging on the parlor wall
By sky-blue ribbon bows.
And soon it was my turn to fret
When ironing day came round;
had two favorite flatirons,
But only one / found.
i went into the sitting room
And there 1 found the mate
All gilded up to look like gold,
And made paper weight.
And when pa bought steak. found
OF broiler had lack;
The gridiron was fixed to be
A fine newspaper rack.
And all the tins for jelly-cake
Had been well washed from grease,
And painted up like plaques, to stand
Upon the mantel-piece.
But when pa found his old armchair
That hugged the kitchen fire,
A painted white, and hung with bows,
The way some folks admire,
And standing in the sitting-room,
Too nice and fine to use,
He said that fashionable styles
He henceforth should refuse.
So pa and me we both agreed
That fashion hadn't paid,
And that we'd use our common things
For what they most seemed made
So down came shovels, down came pans,
And OFF came every bow,
And things are now more comfortable,
II not SO much for show.
