A Few Old Fogyisms.

New York Sum There are n good
many notions long exploded.
Nobody believes, for example. that
all women wear tight shoes.
That all club men drink too much
and don't go home till morning.
That the children of fashionable
people are not well taken care OF.
That all boarding house tables are
bad.
That all women wear tight stays.
That all women lay the seeds for
rapid consumption by getting their
petticoats wet on rainy days.
That all women are jealous OF each
other.
That all women are undergrad.
That all mince pies are indigestible.
That little candy is unhealthy.
That your way is the right way, and
mine is the wrong
Nobody believes any OF these things
except the people who live such mar
row lives that they think nothing good
unless they approve 1T.

he received only a small salary OF

salary for several years, when the
figure was raised to 1000, on which
he subsisted for several years, when it
was raised to $l2,OOO, where it has

Since then his outside earnings have
steadily increased from year to year

sermons, making 1885, 900 aggregate
earnings. DIR. Talmage bears the rep

An intimate friend, conversant with
his affairs and investments, says there
is no smarter business man i'm New
York state. He thoroughly under
stands the value OF money, being in
this respect OF a disposition diamet-
really opposite that of the late Henry
Ward Beecher, who had no idea what
ever of the value of money. To-day
DIR. Talmage is not worth in cash over
100000. He bought the handsome
residence in which he lives at South
Oxford street and Dekalb avenue, "a
few years after his arrival i'm Brook

about 5000 cash and got easy terms
on 100000 mortgage. The house is

are expensive and beautiful. DIR. Tai

A SLAVE OWNERS CHARITY.
He Saw That DE Ole Man Was Buried
Beside His Children

At the dinner station where VT
stopped one day on "A certain Tennes
STE railroad almost the first sight
which greeted the eye OF those who got
of was "A rough burial box on the
| platform, and seated near it was an
old black woman with "a handkerchief
to her eyes. When kindly asked the
cause of her sorrow she pointed to the
box and replied:
DE ole mans in dar."
"Iour husband ?"
''Nes; died two days ago back we're
in lie kentry."
And what are you doing with the
body here?''
III wants to bury it up at Charles
town, but hain't got money nun to
take II on de railroad"
What nonsense" exclaimed a man,
as he came forward. What's the
difference where "a Niger is buried ?
They want her to bury it here, but she
won't. she's determined to take it
to Charlestown.'
For what reason ," asked the pass
enser who had put all the previous
questions.
"kase, sab. all de TO chill'en is bur
led up dar', and his mIdler an sister,
an de poo ole man will he lonesome
down yere."
What bosh?" growled tina kicker.
Look here" whispered the other,
us he went over to him. "I'd rather
be a Niger Will her soul than to he "a
white man with yours. She's right.
Let the family dead sleep together
lie entered the express Office, paid
Tor the shipment of the body, bought
the widow n ticket to Charlestown,
and then dropped a ten-doIlar gold
piece IN her hand and said
GIVE him "A decent funeral, NANNY.
and this will put up IA headbeard to
mark the grave
May lie I.awd bless You for"
But he hurried in to snatch a bite to
eat. When he was gone | made in
