How One Woman Manages.

She was slight, delicate little wom-
an, with determined, fear nothing look
on her youthful face. Her jacket was
unfastened, her bang tossed back in a
careless manner, and altogether there
was a brisk, breezy look of the adj
vanced woman about the slim little
body. Eve been a business woman
for three years." she said decidedly,
'and have invariably found men in
every way courteous and polite to me.
The great mistake the Independent
woman makes in her relations with
men is in letting them see that she is
Independent. Now, when | am with
men am the most helpless, clinging
creature on the footstool, and they are
always lovely to me.
Men don't like smart, clever women
half so well as gentle, timid creatures
that appeal to their sense of chivalry,
and the Nineteenth century man has as
much of it as a medieval knight if you
only know how to find it. Now, when
| was first married and my husband
asked me if | was afraid to stay alone
in the evening, | almost laughed, for
really thought nothing at all of going
from Staten Island to Yonkers after
dinner on business; but | managed to
keep my face very serious while / told
him that was a perfect coward, that
the dreadful shivers ran down my back
every time | heard little noise when
was alone.
Result; He stays in every evening,
and there isn't queen on the globe
that has as nice a time as do after the
dinner is over Don't be too smart is
my advice to women, or, if you can't
help being clever and capable, never
let the man you love know you are able
to pick your own handkerchief up when
you drop it if you want to be treated
like a princess royal all your life. New

Capt. Ingraham is well known citi
zen of thriving little town on the
Huntsville branch of the Birmingham
Mineral. Conductor Smith. of the Vii
lage Springs accommodation, tells the
following story on the captain:
The captain has deep cyclone pit as
a place of refuge in time of dangerous
storms. The pit has a trap door which
opens when touched and closes itself
Some time ago the captain purchased
seven ducks and two chickens and placed
them in his yard The next day they
were nowhere to be found A careful
search for the missing fowls failed to
give any clew to their whereabouts. and
thinking they had been stolen. nothing
more was thought about the matter.
Just nineteen days after the fowls dis
appeared the captain had occasion to
open his cyclone pit The first thing
that met his gaze were the seven ducks
and two hens. They had stepped on tn,
trap door and had been dumped into the
pit, the door closing behind them.
The wonderful fact of it is that though
they had been in the pit nineteen days
without food or water they were alive
After the fowls were removed from tn,
pit it was noticed that they walked very
awkwardly A careful examination re
vealed the fact that they were all a
| blind as bats. Birmingham (Ala.) News

A favorite occupation for those who
lead gay life, and so have plenty OF
opportunity for displaying such
achievements, is the working of girdles,
satchels, belts, epaulettes and tillets for
the hair. These are made almost en-
tirely of jewels, mixed in between gold
en- and tinsel threads. The tillets are
made up on a foundation OF bonnet
wire. the bands being double or triple
TO suit the couture of the wearer. The
embroidery is executed on strips OF
colored satin ribbon only wide enough
To cover the wire easily, allowing about
a ouarter of an inch to turn over TO the
wrong side, where it is held in place by
stitches of stout threads carried across
in lacing fashion from edge to edge
The bands may be lined with sarsenet
if desired, but this should not be done
if there is any chance of its making the
fillet at all bulky, for it should set close
" to the head, the hair being lightly
pulled up between the bands'-Ne"

A Queer Old Fellow.

Of people who have curious ways OF
living few can be more original than
was the late Rev. Dunckley Thomas
who had engaged rooms in Mrs. Wild,
ish's house in 1881, and lived there till
1887. He never permitted her or he1
servants to enter his room, except
once a fortnight. He paid his rent
weekly, and at each payment he
also gave notice that he would
quit in the week following. He never
did quit, but he thus preserved his lib
erty unimpaired. Among his property
consisting of $4,000 or $40, 900, he had a
note of 81 800, which, whenever he be-
came ill, he would always present to his
landlady on the condition that if he re-
covered she should give it back to him.
always returning the note. Finally Mr..
Thomas died, and his executor sued hei
for the note, which the courts finally
gave to her.-London Life.

An Old Testament Mistr se.

A Partisan paper calls attention to a
singular mistake in the revised version
of the Old Testament, or rather to the
preparation of an old error. 1t occurs
in ii Chronicles xxi, |, where Ahaziah
is described as. at the age of AZ, having
succeeded his father. who died at the
age of 40 Seeing that another, and a
perfectly possible account Of the same
circumstance is given in IL Kings viii
20, it is surprising that the obvious error
should have escaped correction. Ac.
cording to the Book of Kings, AhaziaL >
real age at his accession was only %. Al
the time of Ahaziah's birth, therefore
his father was ia fair age for a Syrian
father of a firstborn. This particula,
error is older than the art of printing
1t dates back to some ancient Hebrew
copy of the Book of Chronicles, 1t is re
produced in the pouai version Of the o.,
Testament. San Francisco Chronicle.

A Siamese New Year.

All Siamese birthdaysare celebrated at
New Years, and at this time the curious
custom of "hair cutting" is observed.
When boy reaches the age of II or 10,
and a girl that of 9or 10, they are con,
sidered no longer children. Up to this
time a tuft of hair is allowed to, grow
lust above the forehead and is always
dressed with great care. 1t is twisted
into graceful knot and held together
with a long gold or ieweled pin, AT the
base of this knot is worn wreath OF
fraoyrant white flowers. The ceremonies
Of hair cutting often last five or six days,
II is the coming out party" of the boy
or girl, and thereafter they are not per,
mifted to mingIe with the other sex as
children, but are considered to have ar,
rived at a manageable age.-Buhalo

SEATTLE, Wash, April 20, 1891.
Three years ago my son was taken sick
with pneumonia, which left him with a
terrible cough. He got gradually worse,
and continually expectorated pus. We
travelled around in different parts of Cali
fornia with him, &C insulting doctor after
doctor. None of them could do him any
good. He got so very bad that after COM
ing to Seattle we had half-dozen promi-
nent physicians here in town to see him.
They said his left lung was all gone, and
that he could not possibly live. Hearing
of DR.. Jordan, we sent for him. He came
up, and pronounced it a bad case, but said
he thought he could pu him through all
right. He commenced to pick up right
away, and in a couple of months was able
to go to work.
We cannot be thankful enough to Dr.
Jordan for what his medicines have done
for my dear son. We now use nothing but
