ID. s,rah,e for Ladies'.

The new fashion journals published by
A. Mcdowell s. Co.. West 14'h street
New York, are again on our table. The
superiority of these journals is abundant,
ly shown on every page. LA Mode" is
the smallest Of the three, and is intended
for family use. 1t has many styles for
children, and is only 81 so per yesr. or
Is cents per copy. LA Mode de Paris
is an elegant journal. filled with every
thing of the latest style in Paris. This is
great fsvorite with ladies who wish to
keep posted in the new
styles as they come out. album
des Modes" is also a popular Pari-
sian publication, many ladies giving it
the preference. 1t is replete with such
styles as are patronized by the middle
classes. its designs being neat and plain,
yet all of the richest character. These
three monthly Journals claim to give the
earliest fashions, and they are all printed
in Paris. They contain lessons in prac-
teal dressn aking, which are of incompar-
able value and easy 10 understand. "Ls
Mode de Paris" and the album des
Modes" are each $3.50 per annum, or S5
cents for single copy. Samples can be
obtained from the house at single COPY
prices if there is any difficulty in obtain
ng them from newsdealers.

Felt the Single Later.

The irrepressible small boy from East
Liberty came into the city via Fifth ave-
nue. line, accompanied by his father, who
frowned upon any attempts for him to be-
come inQuisitive. This was very hard on
the boy, and he sat in misery for ten min
utes, not saying a word. At Soho street the
car stopped to take on lady attired in a
very loud red dress, with cheeks painted to
match. The gripman started with his
usual disregard for the equilibrium of the
passengers, and as a result the irrepressi-
ble's father suddenly found himself hold
ing the new passenger on his lap.
''Oh, amt it funny" screamed the boy,
dancing with delight But amt you glad
mama isn't here? You remember what
happened when she saw you holding Aunt
Fanny on your lap the other day."
The boy and his father alighted from the
car at the next street with an energy that
made the youngter smell the shingle in the
woodhouse two miles away.-Pittsburg

The Funny Man and the Car Window.

There is often seen on train the funny
man, who likes to wait until the last
minute before shutting his window when
the train is about to enter tunnel. The
brakeman comes through the car crying
out in stenorian tones: shut up your win
dows!' in way that makes some people
start guiltily, for about all one can hear is
the "shut up" and every conscientious
brakeman insists upon adding the up to
the shut" However, about the funny
man: He looks scornfully at the believing
brakeman, as if to warn him that it is a
waste of breath to inform veteran travel
Ter that there is a tunnel just ahead.
He knows the road so well that at the
very moment the cars leap into the black
ness of the tunnel his fingers fly to the
window latch. The spring is stiff and the
window sticks. Tugging and pulling and
jerking, with little swearing thrown in,
he finally gets the window down, but for
thirty seconds, while the train has been
roaring through the tunnel, the smoke has
poured into the car and every one is chok-
ing and condemning that man to a place
which is specially unpleasant in summer.
while he puts on an injured look and NUT
tiers severe words about a company that
disgraces itself by having windows in its
cars which will neither go up nor go down.
The funny man never gets tired, how
ever, of trying to show how successfully
he can play his trick.-New York Tribune.

Her Little Scheme

Dealers in old furniture have some queer
stories to tell about women. One is about
a silk petticoated creature who greatly ad-
mired certain quaint mahogany side
board She came into the shop and exam
ined it carefully several times, and on one
occasion distracted a small portion of the
carving.
On her next visit she offered the dealer a
certain price, which was far below the one
he had demanded, and at the same time
said she had discovered that piece of the
woodwork was missing. The dealer dared
not accuse her of the theft, but he is NOR
ally certain that she committed it, and
tells the story in perfect good faith.-New
