A Wall street man who was returning

dered through the train until he came
across = farmer, and then sat down he
side him and said:
There seems to be every promise of a
bountiful crop this fall"
"Yaas," dryly replied the farmer.
Wheat has been harvested in good
shape, | see.
"Yaas," was the reply, as the farmer
sized him up out of the corner of his
eye.
II never saw better crop of corn, and
oats are magnificent"
The farmer didn't reply to this, but
looked uneasy.
1T is also good fruit year" contin-
ned the Wall street man, land when

The agriculturist stood up and looked
around the car as If in search of some
one.
What's your average yield of wheat?''
queried the Wall street man, as the other
sat down.
"Yaas, wheat's purity fair" was the
absent reply.
What do you figure on for potatoes
this fall?"
The old man stood up and beckoned
vigorously to strapping young man at
the far end of the car The latter at
once came forward, and as he reached
the seat the old man said:
Tom, faint the same Teller, but he's
beginnin jest as the t'other one did"
What's up-what's the matter?" asked
the New Yorker, as Tom began to push
up his sleeves.
The matter is that you git whar you
belong or I'll break you in two.' replied
Tom. Two weeks ago a Teller who
looks about as You do got hold of the old
man and began to talk crops, and the

contract fur 400 feet of lightnin rod, six
patent gates and washing machine,

MANNERS AND CUSTOMS.

Useful Points for n Variety of Occasions,
Given by Harper's Bazaar.
The groom at morning wedding may
wear a cutaway coat, but the frock coat is
preferred. His light suit for travelling is
correct. The ushers enter the church first,
followed by the bridesmaids. The maid of
honor precedes the bride. This order is re-
versed when leaving the church. At the
reception, the bridesmaids stand on each
side near the bride, and the ushers receive
the guests and present them to the bride
and groom.
Tea gowns are worn in ones own home
when receiving few friends, or when stay
ing in the country house of an intimate
friend. They are not worn when giving
formal reception
Serve coffee n large cups for high tea,
but do not make another service of it later.
Coffee at dinner is, of course, only served
after dessert, and always in small cups.
Inclose the engraved card of your guest
with your own; or, if you are writing your
invitations, simply invite your friends ito
meet Miss Smith"
Have the calling card for the young girl
trifle smaller than that of her mother; it
should read simply, Miss Smith" The
young mans card is quite small, long aud
narrow and should bear his entire name,
prefaced by Mr. You, of course, send in
your cards by the servant; on finding the
person mot at home" leave them with the
servant.
Let the lady precede you in being shown
to your seats by usher. Precede the lady
going up stairs, or in any place where there
is the possibility Of meeting annoyance or
inconvenience
1t is correct to write out the date and
place it at the end of a formal letter. A
first call should be returned within week
or ten days.

The Bore.

Again hear the creaking stepl
He's rapping at the doorl
Too well | know the boding sound
That ushers in a bore.
i do not tremble when meet
The stoutest of my foes,
But heaven defend me from the friend
Who comes but never goes!
He drops into my easy chair,
And asks about the news;
He peeps into my manuscript.
And gives his candid views;
He tells me where he likes the line,
And where he's forced to grieve.
He takes the strangest liberties,
But never takes his leave.
He reads my daily papers through
Before I've seen word:
He scans the lyric that ! wrote
And thinks it quite absurd.
He calmly smokes my last cigar,
He calmly asks for more;
He opens everything he sees
Except the entry door.
He talks about his fragile health,
And tells me of his pains;
He suffers from a score of ills.
OF which he ne'er complains;
And how he struggled once with death
To keep the fend at bay:
On themes like those away he goes
But never goes away.
He tells me of the carping words
Some shallow critic wrote.
And every precious paragraph
FamiliarE can quote;
He thinks the writer did me wrong.
He'd like to run him through
He says thousand pleasant things,
But never says "Adieu!"

A German scientist is credited with say
ing that of the various remedies recon-
mended for mosquito bites, such as am
monia, oil O. cloves, chloroform, carbolized
glycerin, etc, none is better than ordi-
nary soap. He is an ardent naturalist and
on his frequent excursions in the country
he invariably carries small piece of soap,
with which in case of bite he makes
lather all over the affected part and allows
it to dry on. He almost invariably finds
that the relief is instantaneous, and that
all pain soon ceases. Should it continue,
however, as sometimes happens, it is only
necessary to repeat he application.
