missed in the social circles of Dick.
inson. is James f. Seese, who took
his departure Wednesday OH his way
to Ohio. his native state. For nearly
two years MI. Seese had been Il North

They Merely Kissed Each Other.


That kissing, even when purely volun-
tary on both sides, constitutes assault
and battery is a discovery which it has
remained for that sapient and most orig
inal body, the Philadelphia grand jury,
to make. There is no doubt about the
discovery, however, as Isaac Purnell and
Sallie Senseman, who are now lang1ish-
ing in Moyamensing prison under bill
of Indictment charging them with as
sault and battery on each other, can
swear that they did nothing more serious
than exchange kisses, accompanied by
hugs.
They met on the evening of June
near Twentieth and Green streets, and
apparently it was case of love at first
sight. They strolled along the street
happy in each others company. Their
demonstrations of affection attracted the
attention of Officer Stanton, of the Ninth
police district, and private watchman.
The officer hauled them of to the station
house at Twenty third and Brown streets,
and a magistrate committed them the
next day to Moyamensing.
Isaac and Sallie were good deal as
tonished at this severe punishment for
their little escapade, but their amaze
ment was increased on Friday when
they were told that they had been III
dicted by the grand jury for assault and
battery on each other, and that their Of
fense was so fragrant that it might take
them to Cherry Hill.-Philadelphia Rec

Decided Not to Go in the steerage.
A gentleman who went to see some
friends off on the Teutonic week ago
Wednesday tells Of a funny incident
which he witnessed on board He was
talking with the purser when a man,
fairly we'll dressed, ,,came up and said to
that officer, II bought steerage ticket
out west, but think I would rather go
second cabin" II am very sorry" re-
piled the purser, "but you can't 60 that
way, because there is not berth left
unsold in the second cabin"
"Then I'll go,f.st cabin, /" responded
the imperturbable stranger. "You can't
go first cabin, either, I'm sorry to say,
answered the purser, "because all the
berths in the first cabin are also Sold"
"Isn't there stateroom of any hind
leftr
"Wel," said the purser, with smile,
there is one stateroom left, but the
price of it is 5000"
"If l take that" said the stranger
musingly, II will owe you $578"
"How is that" asked the purser.
"Well, the storage ticket cost me
twenty-five dollars, and Ipresume it is
still good for that amount, so that in or
der to get the room I'll have to give you
only $578 more"
"Oh! that is true" said the purser.
'Then," said the stranger, "Ill take
that room" And forthwith he pulled
out huge roll of bills and handed the
purser $57e.-New York Times.

An Easy Chair.

n large share of mans inventive
genius has always been devoted to
making himself comfortable, but it is
only within the present century that
his efforts have been crowned with
success. Take the matter of chairs,
for instance. 1t was Il long time be-
fore the defendants of Adam and Eve
could devise anything better for a
seat than log or a boulder. And
even when chairs were invented, they
were reserved for Kings, Emperors,
Priests and high personages. Among
some so-called civilized nations of
the present day, sitting cross legged
OH a mat is the only method recogni-
ed as the correct thing even in japan
whose people are styled the "Yankees
! OF the ORIENT
OF all the peoples of the world, the
American is the leader in that which
conduccs to comfort, and it is in our
own country improvements are eager
ly adopted. The inhabitant of the
cottage as we'll us the dweller in the
palace, insists that his furniture shall
be easy and luxurious. Accustomed
to his cushioned chair and slippers at
| home, the American when he travels
requires the same attention paid to
his comfort. He will journey not
only swiftly but softly and easily
Every effort is made to satisfy the
! demand, and hence the evolution of
the sleeping, parlor and dining cars
for railroad travel. These, however,
were so far luXuries that their enjoy.
ment involved expense beyond the
cost of a railroad ticket, and thus
many worthy people were debarred
from the enjoyment of the rich. The
| question confronted the railroads.

A Monder Worker.

Mr.. Frank Huffman, a young man
of Burlington, Ohio, states that he
had been under the care of two promi-

to be consumption and incurable.
He was persuaded to try DR.. Kings

was not able to walk across the street
