THAT'S TIE GIRL.
The Young Woman Who Is Able 70 Nee
Every Man Upon His Own Ground.

The Young Woman Who Is Able 70 Nee;
Every Man Upon His Own Ground.
In glancing over the columns OF a news
paper my attention was caught by an ar.
ticle in which lady discussed the attract
i've qualities OF marriageable girls in the
eyes of eligible men.
If my understanding of the writer's con-
illusions is correct the inference may be
drawn that as there are all kinds Of girls
aud all kinds of men, almost any kind of a
girl will please some kind of man, obser-
walton undoubtedly justifyiEg such an
opinion.
There is, however, one girl-everY man
knows which one Imean-whose versatility
aud adaptabiity render her particularly
agreeable.
She is always frank and free in CONVEX
sation, even on unconventional subjects,
but she is never bold. and will tolerate
nothing approaching coarseness.
You are positive that her seeming inter
est in the matters which interest you is
not entirely assumed, and you ara con-
scious also that she knows whether your
affected desire to understand the affairs
occupying her attention is genuine
There is no indication, either. when you
are present, that she ever thinks of you
when absent to any greater degree, or in
any other way, than your male acqaint-
ances do.
In conversation, her large fund OF gen
eral information is evident, yet you ara
not impressed by display Of knowledge
greater than your own.
If you desire to air your stock of compli-
mentary nothings she can handle them
more gracefully than that other girl with
whom you can talk nothing else, and there
Is delightfully."- missing all sensation of
having them extorted from you.
Perhaps, in a momentarily cynical mood,
you sit down 70 reflect on this girls charm,
determined To discover whether it is the
result of ingenious naturalness or the
most consummate art. What is your con
clusion2 Hmm, yes; but one thing is Ger
tain-the charm is there, isn't its
Now, TO be honest, doesn't it lie In the
fact that she apparently receives just that
impression OF your character and PERSONAL
ity which you know, in the depths of your
consciousness, is little too favorable for
uninfated truth, yet is not so absurdly
fiatteripg but that you can honestly en-
deavoF TO believe it correct.
This girl, who meets on level ground
every man worth meeting, though not
challenging admiration, usually takes her
choice among several suitors. And If that
man is sensible enough to treat her after
marriage as he did before, he seldom re-
grets the choice.
Any disappointment she may feel IS never
publicly admitted. frederick Manuel Vie

The Money Did Il.

An italian resident of this city tells the
following incident of a countrynan in his
native land: Among devices employed to
evade the three years requisite service in
the army is that of feigning to be deaf and
dumb. The man in question was so sue
cessful in this deception that, though he
was kept for three months among booming
cannon and rife reports, he never once be-
trayed the fact that he could hear either,
and was allowed to go free. However, two
men were sent to watch him, and when he
walked up the stone steps of his house
some money was thrown down behind him.
He Immediately turned around on hearing
the jingiing coin, and was seized and car
ried of to serve eight years in the army,
the five additional years being the penalty
for his deception.-Portland Argus.

Carriage Travel on the Bridge.

The length of the carriage way on the
Brooklyn bridge is 5,9S9 feet The number
of carriages and other vehicles crossing
amounts Iii day to 1000. From in the

about 500 carriages or wagons cross Then
the number increases 70 100 between 6 and

an hour. Between G and i5 falls 10 200,
and between and S 20 100, after which
business again becomes dull. There are,
OF course, average figures, as the traffic
varies according 20 the weather and the
season, but is always greatest between 4
and in the afternoon and least in night
hours.-New York sun.

Whales That Have Teeth,

While the Greenland whale has 10 teeth,
the sperm whale has them in great guam

hand, the narwhal very seldom develops
more than one, the left upper canine Il

THE Merkel Mail puts q head on

pear to have been one, and furnishes
the head with reasons for the action
of the Nebraska court in the Boyd
govsrnorship case. The news had
been following democratic precedent
and cussing Nebraska Dy bell, book
and candle. The Merkle Mail says:
Read up Johnny, and give the
ID his dues. The reason Boyd was
GU ,ted was on the grounds that he
was not citizen of the United States.
If he was too Indifferent in the mat
ter to take the necessary
steps to become one, as
seems to be the case, he has no
business with the office of governor,
whether he is q Democrat or q Re-
publican. The Mail Is decidedly in

possession for about two months.
when Count Waldersee limited to his
Majesty that he would be delighted to take
a spin behind the Russian steeds. The En-
perOr, who was just getting ready for his
Thiergarten promenade, at once invited
Waldersee to attend him, and ordered the
tToka to be got in readiness When the two
gentlemen were on the point of entering the
carriage his Majesty suddenly seemed to
recollect something, and desired the Gen.
eral to inspect the celebrated harness most
closely. Waldersee did so, and, on taking
his seat, remarked that "he thought he OBJ
