A Partisan skirt.

Long skirts are denounced as so In
convenient for walking that Dame
Fashion, sensible woman that she is
at timcs-has decided to make virtue
of necessity and retain round skirts-
BY round skirts are, meant those that
barely touch the ground in the back.
Demi-trains are retained for ceremo
NOUS calls made in carriage,
and the long train is used only
for dinner and evening receptions.
This renders superhuous all the
various more or less complicated sys-
TENS of dress-lifting which have been
offered to the feminine public within
the last few months. All that is
needed is single large button and q
button-hole tab inside the skirt. by
means of which the back breadth can
be raised somewhat when the state OF
the pavemeuts demand it; and skirts
being scanty about the top, there is no
waist The short street costumes Of
cloth or camel s-hair which are coming
into favor again are composed of plnin
skirt reaching to the instep. finished
with rows of stitching around the bot
tom, and tight-fitting jacket of the
same material with wide sleeves. The
last remnants of drapsry still cling tG
skirts in the movements" which dress
makers give them by cross folds on the
hips on either side or on both sides,
which prevent clinging skirt from too
sharply defining the figure.

From the day he was taken sick and up to Sunday. he was unconscious. Sunday morning he regained the use of his mental faculties and called for a newspaper. No paper of late date could be found, and when so informed by his attendant, the boy remarked; Well. only wanted to know what the convention done yesterday. I sup pose they nominated Fishback for governor, didn't they?" The patient had been unconscious forty-six days and imagined he had just awakened from a nights sleep.

 The will-dressed. resourcefnl tramp has not yet exhausted his cunning ways of obtaining drinks when his eXciiequer is depleted.

He learned hls trade in the Iron Mountain shops in Little Rock. and fifteen years ago he says you did him favor which he has not forgotten. As an evidence of the appreciation of your kindness he has sent you a parrOt-one of the finest that was ever captured in South America. It is on the way hy express and will be here tomorrow or next day" MT. Frank could not recall either Jenkins CT the favor he had shown him, but took it for granted what the stranger had told him was true. He set up the drinks and cigars and, acting upon the advice of the visitor, purchased a cage for the parrot at an expense of SIP.

The Tone of Machinery.

Engineers judge of the condition of their machinery by the tone it gives out while running. Every engine. whether stationary or locomotive, has d particular tone of it's own. The en- gineer becomes accustomed to that. and any departure from it at once excites d suspicion that all is not right. The en- gincer may not know what is the mat ter, he may have no ear for music. but the change in the tone of hIs machine will be instantly perceptible, will be instantly recognized, and will start him on an immediate investigation.

Builfrogs With a Jag.
Lewietown fMe.) Journal.


 One of Deputy Sheriff Odlin's neigh bors tells a queer story. It is well known that the liquor seized by the sheriff IS spilled on the margin of the frog pond, right across the street from Odlin's house. "The other day was coming down Webster street, when from the reeds and tall grasses on the shore of the frog pond in front of Mir. Odlin's house l heard the most re- markable chorus of noises that it has ever been my privilege to listen to. stopped in amaZement and listened It sounded something like d symphony of frogs. and still it didn't. 1 waded through the tall grass just for curiosity and there close to the shore, were all the frogs in the pond-some swimming with dazed and halffashioned strokes, and others toddling on the bank. Yes. they were drunk. The best that 1 could make out of it was that they had been celebrating upon the contraband stuff that the deputy sheriffs had spilled into the pond the day before.

 There was a rare and racy scene on my car last evening, said the condue- tor of Lindell avenue car to the MaE About Town. " We were going west, " he continued. with a crowded car, when a stylisily dressed young lady gd aboard. She looked around in vain for seat till an old fellow of uucOuth appearance. but not as green as he looked. arose from his.seat and said :: Miss. take my place. don't look as we'll as these ere gentlemen lnodding at several menl but I've diskivered that I've gut more puliteness. The young lady sat down without thanking the ole fellow and, slyly glancing at a lady acquaintance seated near. said in an undertone, but louder than she intended: How do you like my gallant country loosier? Don't you think he would cut quite figure in dime mu- scum r The old fellow gave no indi- cation that he heard the remark, though it created considerable merriment among the passengers. He directly turned around, however. and remarked to the young lady:
 Miss, I believe I left my pocket book thar on that seat. Will you please get ID mint v

I've got leetle more politeness than these 'ere gentlemen, but I've diskivered that 1 ain't got nigh so much sepse' The roar of laughter from the passengers and the young lady's embarrassment can be better imagined than described.
