TERMINATION oE LETTERS.
Some Formal Phrases Used in Corre-
spondence.


Some Formal Phrases Used in Corre-
spondence.
There is great amount of untruth
about the formal examinations of many
of our letters. Formally is doubtless
always more or less false; but it seems
q pity and mistake that civilization
should prompt us to utter falsehoods.
The savages have the advantage over US
there; they tell white lies and black
lies, to the best of our belief, as fire.
quently as civilized people do, but not
for forms sake. "Your most obedient
servant" Is, of course, every word ,of
1t false. when It precedes the
signature of a person with whom we
have never, perhaps, exchanged
word in our lives. If those who pro-
fess to be SO were to sign themselves
"Yours respectfully" there would be
little more semblance of truth in the
assertion, and we should be able to
form a more correct estimate of our
establishment of most obedient serv-
ants. Ever yours sincerely" goes a
step beyond yours truly" and it might
lead to number of most painful decep-
tions, if long use had not taught US to
know better than to believe in such sim
cerity. 1t ought to be quite cheering.
IL not touching, to observe how
easily lady correspondents in par
ticular sign themselves "Your affec-
tionate friend" to one another.
They become affectionate by instinct.
as 1t were, especially by post. Ladies
sometimes have an odd way of clinging
TO each other desperately after short
acquaintanceship, as though they had
been born solely the one for the other.
After some slight quarrel, however, or
II . new acquaintance comes in the
way, they perceive as quickly as they
became full of mutual affection that
there is nothing SO very lovable on
either side, after all. Still, if they con-
tinue to correspond, they will not for
that cease to sign themselves "Your
affectionate FRIEND" which shows what
the phrase is worth in some cases.
Children, too, are sometimes compelled
quite against their inclinations, to sub
scribe themselves: Your affectionate
pupil" when writing to a school-mis-
tress or governess whom they may have
had every cause to dislike.
What we think to be necessary POI
likeness il a letter, we should consider
ridiculous formation and an absurd pa
rade of words, if they were exchanged
in person. Yet these expressions can
not be classed with certain gracious
sentiments and intentions that one only
has the courage to forward in a letter.
They mean nothing; perhaps that is
why we use them so freely, though we
are said to be a straightforward and
practical people. Chicago Saturday

A PTTIABLE SURRENDER.

BY vote of 227 to I76 the Democrat
ic State convention at Topeka on
Wednesday decided to fuse with the
POpulists by endorsing the latter's
State and electoral ticket. The fusion
was not affected, however, without
bitter words and threats. Col. a. A.
Harris, of Fort Scott, said:
/ have come at this critical hour
when men who have been honOred by
the Democrats for years would lay
down and surrender. Surrender
means defeat-defeat and disgrace ad-
ded to it. There are 10000 men in the
State who want to vote for Grover
ticket without a Democrat upon it.
You make a contract to deliver US,
you managers, but you can't deliver
the goods. We will not be bound
hand and foot and turned over to COM
munists and socialists. thank God
that it cannot be said: "He helped
send PETER to the Senate. He turned
out one Republican and put in anOth-
er. He sent five to Congress and there
is not one of them who not spit in his
face if he called him a Democrat. He
elected legislature that would have
brought more suffering, more des-
trnctiOh on the State than grasshOp-
pers and drouth could have done in
twenty years had it not been check
mated"
J. B. GOshorn, of lola, said:
Endorse the Peoples ticket and you
disfranchise 10000 Democrats or drive
them into the Republican party.
]. r. Mcclure, of Geary county,
said that there was no power on earth
that can convert this Democratic con-
ventiOn into a Peoples party eonven-
tiOn. He prophesied the complete
destruction of the Democratic party
in Kansas if the Peoples ticket was
Endorsed. He said he would not be
bOuEd by the action of the convention
if it attempted to surrender the DEM
Ocfatic party to the Peoples party.
Judge Lowe of Atchison, and about
80 other delegates, put on their hats
and walked out of the hall when the
vote was announced.
That ends it. The Democratic par
ty is a thing of the past. The last act
in the pitiable farce is ended The

Her Other Little Roy

A lady who has little fve-yesr old son
recently had large portrait OF him sent
her as surprise. She was just hanging
the picture when her son and heir entered
the room.
"Who dat muzzyp' he asked, not recog-
nizing himself.
That's mammals other little boy,' she
replied.
The little man was evidently grieved, but
he was not the lad to wear his heart upon
his sleeve. So with contemptuous
''humpr' he betook himself to the kitchen,
where he promptly got into mischief. The
waitress, who was a new conner, had hot
temper, and when she rescued him for the
third time from the kerosene cask she said
angrily:
HAS your mother any more sons like
you, wonder!"
"Yep, one" he returned.
"And where is he!''
Hanging up in the drawing ROOM" was
the unexpected reply.
