A snd NIetam ornhosis.

She was pretty girl and a pleasant
thing to see on a rainy day. She got into
Broadway car at Goth street going
down town. Her tailor made costume
was natty. A soft hat just showed
curly bang, and Tuxedo veil skirted
the tip of her delicate nose. Slung from
her arm she carried leather bound Bos-
ton bag and in one hand silver mounted
English umbrella, The car was crowded,
and the passengers moved up when a
dapper gentleman yielded his place; so
the girl squeezed into a narrow space and
sat on the edge of the seat at that. Her
get up was gentlemanly, but her pocket
was hard to find, just the same. In
dragging out her purse she spilled her
handkerchief, She and the gentleman
opposite bent simultaneously to pick it
up. Their heads came in contact and
the girls hat was punched in and pushed
to one side. She thanked the gentleman
for her handkerchief. The jab her hat
had got had loosened her veil. Reaching
up to rearrange both, she burst the pin
that held one cuff. This made her nerv-
GUS and the veil wasn't fixed straight by
any means, while the hat was pinned at
a distinctly rakish angle, and so far back
that the bang was pulled up out of sight
When she took her arms down the cuff
fell over her knuckles. She couldn't
manage the pin, which being bent, was
hurting her dainty wrist, so she barred
one hand of its glove. She tried to
straighten the pin and lost it. Then she
pushed the cuff up and began to look
severe. AT this point her umbrella fell
with bang of the silver handle. Stoop-
ing for it, she let her bag drag along the
dirty floor, and that was muddied as well
as the umbrella. She forgot that her
handkerchief had been in the same place,
and she wiped her mouth as a girl will
when she is nervous. This gave her a
smudge On her chin. Then she sud-
denly discovered that her street was at
hand.
And, oh! what sadly different girl il
was who got out to do her shopping. One
hand ungloved, the other cuff hanging
loose, umbrella, bag, and face muddy, a
soft hat tipped on the back of her head
and punched out Of shape, a veil aslant
across one cheek, and alasl and alas! nc
bang-no bang at all.--[New York Sun

Deserved Retaliation,

Overshrewd lawyers often furnish
their adversaries with weapons. Even
the cleverest of them have been. put
down in open court by equally ready
witnesses. "Did you see this tree that
has been mentioned, by the roadsideT"
an advocate inquired.
"Yes, sir; l saw it very plainly"
at was conspicuous, them"
The witness seemed puzzled by the
new word. He repeated his former as
sertion.
"What is the difference, sneered the
lawyer, between plain and conspic-
uous ?"
But he was hoist with his own petard.
The witness innocently answered:
II can see you plainly, sir, amongst
the other lawyers, though you are not a
bit conspicuous.
In another instance, blow directed
against the character of witness forci-
bly, recoiled.
"You were in the company of these
people ?" he was asked.
"Of two friends, SIR"
Friends! Two thieves, I suppose you
mean.
"That may be SO, was the dry retort
"they are both lawyers"
The blow that destroys the effect of an
adverse examination is occasionally more
the result of accident than of conscious
effort. In trial, not long ago, very
simple witness was in the box, and after
going through his ordeal was ready to
retire. One question remained:
"Now, Mr.. -, has not an attempt
been made to induce you to tell the court
a different story?"
"a different story to what have told
Bir?"
"Yes; is it not SOP"
eyes, sir"
Upon your oath, demand to know
who the persons are who have attempted
this. "
well, sir, you've tried as hard as any
of EN-, was the unexpected answer.

Potter PaImer,s Two Engineers.

l know good story about Potter Pal
mer which has never yet been published.
One day Mr.. Palmer went down into the
engine room of his hotel, and in some
way got into dispute with the engineer.
Mr.. Palmer ended the matter by telling
his employee to go to the Office and get
his salary and get out.
Now, this engineer had been in Mr..
Palmers employ Is years, and knew
every pipe, wire, and rope in the big
hotel. The manager of the house, who,
by the way, is now st. Louis landlord,
was greatly put out when the faithful
employee told him that the "old man
had fired" him.
Jim" said the manager, II don't
want you to go. Wewould be in trouble
for months if anew man took your place.
I'll tell you what you do Go and shave
off that mighty beard you wear, dress up
in your Sunday clothes, and go and
strike the old man for your old job.
An hour later Mr.. Palmer was ap.
chOdCutu ny ShIOOIn ldCSu, uedllS
dressed man, who courteously inquired
# he needed the services of first class
engineer.
That's just what do, was Mr. Pal.
mer's reply, "The man I've had has
been discharged. He had been long
time in the place, but he got sassy AS
your papers are all right, you can try the
place.
That happened years ago, but Jim still
holds the fort. Mr.. Palmer has never
regretted that he fired" that sassy
jim" and hired in his place the gentle
manly, smooth faced man who keep;
everything in such perfect running order,
