when he was lying on the floor painting

There, dear, have forgotten some

A man in the southern part of Scran-

summer, and for awhile he laid the

caught the culprit, and 1t wasn't the old

longed to family Ave blocks away, and
It seized a downy little chicken and ran
of with it right before the eyes of the
astonished owner. He chased the dog,
but soon lost sight Of it. In day or
so the dog returned and stole another
chicken. This time the man traced the
dog to it's home, and caught it with tho
chicken in its possession. The family
begged him not to kill their children's
pet, paid him for all the chickens he
had lost, and saved the dogs life.
A small Scotch terrier belonging to q
man who lives near one of the Scranton
hotels got in the notion early in the
summer of following the hotel omnibus
to the railroad stations. He came near
being run over one morning, and after
that the driver scared the dog back
whenever he started to tag along behind
the vehicle. There was a good hiding
place under the hotel veranda, and in it
the dog kept shady until the driver had
mounted his seat. Then he stole out,
and before the omnibus had got fairly
under way, he hoped upon the rear
step and hung like a mailer as the
omnibus jolted and rumbled over the
rough wooden pavement down to the
station. Before the driver had time to
get down the dog was mingling with the
crowd, where he stayed until the driver
was ready to start back, when he
sought his perch again. The cunning
animal had done this number of times
before the driver found it out from a
gentleman who had boen watching the
dog, and it pleased the driver so much
that he let the dog have his own way

FRENCH HOUSEKEEPING.
How Partisan Ladies' Tighten Expenses By
Practical Economy.

How Partisan Ladies' LIghton Expenses by
Practical Economy.
In an article on IA French Woman at
Home" in the Ladies' Home journal, Dor
othea says: She helps to cook the dinner
she has bought-for servants are wasteful
with the charcoal and she knows to an inch
how little she can use. In that marvellous
Ilace-a French kitchen, where two or
three little holes in a stove cook such deli
cate dishes, and perform such culinary feats
as our great roaring coal fires have no con-
ception of-she fits about like fairy, Great
ing magical messes out Of raw material of
the most ordinary description.
Yes, though lady born and bred, refined,
elegant and agreeable in society, belle in
her way, yet she does not think it beneath
her dignity to Tighten the household ex-
penses by practical economy and activity.
The dinner of a French family is cheap
and simple There is always a soup, the
meat Of the stew pan-sometimes, IL not
strict In expenditure, another plate Of meat
generally two vegetables, dressed and
eaten separately, and sometimes, not al
ways, q sweet dish; il not that, little fruit
such as may be the cheapest and in the
ripest season.
But there is very little IN each thing, and
it is rather in arrangem emit than in mater ria
that they appear rich. The idea that the
French are gourmands in private life is in
correct. They spend little in eating and
they eat inferior things; though their cook
cry Is rather a science than q mere accident
OF civilization. At home the great aim Of
the French is to save; and any self-sac-
rifce that will lead to this result is cheer
fully undertaken, more especially In eating
than in the mere luxury of mere idleness
No French woman will sDend q cent IN
save herself trouble. She would rather
work like dray horse to buy an extra yard
Of ribbon or new pair of gloves than lie
on the softest sofa in the world in placid
fne-ladyism, with crumpled gauze or bare
hands

One of these banks was known as
THE Bank of Sandstone being located
in part of Michigan where quarries of
fine grit stone had been opened. Its
promises to pay were widely circulated
When the panic came a man who held
many of the banks circulating notes
made all haste to reach Sandstone to
get them cashed.
The bank had assets, out of which it
paid the bill-holder-a milestone for

Pleasant Events OF . Social Nature
Graphically Portrayed.
A statement was made in our recent
correspondence that word had been re-
ceived by friends on the Ridge that Luz
cinda Everhart, who moved to Iowa last
year with her parents, had married q
monster, and had done very we'll in
deed" Nothing could have given US
more pain than to see such a statement
in our letter, inasmuch as what we wrote
was that Lucinda had married minis
ter" etc. We particularly regret this
misprint for the reason that we had
asked the editor to send marked copy
OF the paper containing our notice to the
happy bride and groom with our COM
pliments. In view of this unfortunate
typographical error will the editor now
kindly send also copy of the paper con-
tanning this correction, so that We may
undo as far as possible the grievous err
ror? If printers could occasionally stand
in the light in which journalists are
often placed by them, we dare say they
would place their types with more care,

able daughter Sadie are most charming

there is no more accomplished and
agreeable young lady in this neck O.

jealous of the attention we were receiv-
ing, undertook to make considerable fun
for the company at your correspondents
expense. Let us say right here that we
like to see people jovial and full Of life

to as much as the next man for the sake
Of making amusement for others, but
when these yellowhammers broke a
goose-egg inside of our shirt collar they
were carrying the thing little too far
For what followed we think we were in
no way to blame, and if the suit against
us for assault and battery is pushed, as
has been threatened, we think we can
make it interesting with acounter-claim
for damages to as nice a Sunday suit of
clothes as there was on the Ridge.
1t was claimed in Justification of their
reprehensible conduct that the breaking
of the goose-egg down our back was no
worse than the dropping of the piece of
liver down the back of the new minis
ter after the wedding Tuesday evening.
There is very little similarity between
the two cases The liver was, dropped
down the preachers back by some fun
loving young ladies, and beside they
had string to it, by which it was re-
moved when the joke had gone far
enough. We take notice there was no
string to the broken goose-egg. Go on

when her three kittens were old enough
to lap milk, early in the season. Milk
for them all was poured into q small
mortar in the rear of the store. The
heads OF the three kittens took up
about all the space there was. Several
times the old cat tried to get her nose
In the mortar while her little ones
were tapping the milk, but she found
that she would have to push one of the
kittens aside if she did so. After having
watched the kittens for a minute or
two, the mother cat very carefully and
slowly pushed her left paw between
two of them, touched the milk gently,
and then pulled her paw out and licked
the milk of. She kept this up until
the kittens had got their fill and moved
back to wash their faces, and even then
she stuck in her paw and licked it of.
The habit grew upon her, and when the
kittens were in the cellar she would
come upstairs and poke her paw into
the milk and lick it of for forty or
fifty times In succession. Puss has

are painted the suffering pilgrims who
have been cured, and led; is heaped

Locks Of hair, short swords and de-

with sword-hilts, s. OFT swords and round

Helmets and bits of armor are put

woven with silk cords into curtains or

All around the walls and over the

About fifty years ago Michigan expe-

than upon an increase of values, ended
as such spasmodic prosperity always
ends, in panic and disaster.
There was an extraordinary demand
for wild lands, and for places with

large cities. The Government had
opened up three land offices in different
parts of the State. These were besieged
by crowds anxious to ENTER land at
one dollar and twenty-five cents an
acre.
Every proprietor of ''city" which ex-
listed on a beautifully engraved map,
