NO TIME TO READ.

Ward McAllister says that people in
society have no tina to read books. Is
there any significance in the fact that
he has lately pub lished book?-Keo-
kuk Constitution.
1t was unnecessary for Ward Meal
lister to state that ''people in society
have no time to read books" We knew
it as soon as ever we saw a specimen of
MaAlllster's literary production. = st.
Louis Post-Dispatch.
Butler Ward McAllister's latest out
put is that people in society have no
time to read books. He might have
added that they have even less inclina-
ton to read them. As booknaker,
McAllister knows this.-New York Adj
vertiSer.
Ward McAllister says the four hun
red ''haye no time to read books" If
Ward had added, and mo brains to ap-
preciate books" he'd have completed
the statement of fact. The inanity,
stupidity, selfshness. insipidity and
general worthlessness of ultra fashion
dom is conclusive evidence that its de-
voices don't read books" = Chatta-
nooga Times.

ALEaP-YEaR PRIVILEGE

AS this is leap year, more latitude
than usual IS probably permissible to
young women in their treatment of per-
sons OF the less fortunate sex. The sug-
gestive leadings of other years may take
more direct verbal form. and perhaps
the too importunate and persistent men
may be furnished object lessons. A
young lady in leading New Jersey
city, Miss. BERTHA HYNEs, had been
for weeks annoyed by lover who tried
to initiate MARY'S little lamb. He
would hang about her house, and, when
she went out, follow her, at times at
tempting to speak to or touch her. He
fractured no ordinance or law, and so
she took the remedy into her own hands
in the shape of horsewhip. Improving
her opportunity, she was able to admins
ter a reproof so severe as to entirely cure
the admirer of any exhibition of fond
ness. In other years public opinion
would be quick to decide that the Job
should be entrusted to big brother or
some male friend; but as it is leap year,
the question is raised as to whether the
latitude of that period would cover this
exhibition of materialiZed sentiment.
The traditions aud uses of leap year are

import 12,000.000 quarters of wheat be-
fore the next harvest, and the demand
from other European countries will be
even greater than estimated earlier IN
the year.
The export trade of the United States
is the greatest known in the country'S
history. In October it reached 800, 900,
%, and in November $4,000, 900, each
month surprising all previous records.
The full year will show that the United
States has exported $1,000. 100000 of
products of various kinds. This, how
ever, is only temporary condition, due
to the increased demand for food prod
ducts. and not for manufactured goods
For example, ofthe S20,000,0 900 increase in
November considerably less than S2,000,-
000repreSentS the value of manufactured
articles. Notwithstanding this immense
Increase i'll exports, the beginning of
December saw only S27.OOO,OOO of the
:a5 C00,000 gold which was exported in
sc summer returned to this country.
This will all return, although it has
been delayed by the payment of interest
charges on American securities falling
due about the first of the year.
Locally, the jObbing trade commences
the new year under remarkably favor
able conditions. Collections are report
ed from good to very good, and all the
Jobbing houses are preparing for great
Increase in their spring business. The
farmers and business men of the North
west are fast liquidating their indebted
n Of
has found its way into the reserve
banks.
The iron and steel trade is better, but
the production for 1891 shows falling
off from that of 1890, In the latter year
it was 10.307,02S tons, and in 1891 the
estimate is S,976,000 tons. This business
was greatly depressed during the first
part of the year, and the renewal during
the past few months promises greater
activity for the new year.
The demand for flour continues. and
the mills of the Northwest are all at
work, many IN the farming districts to
the northwest of the Twin Cities being
obliged to run night and day TO fill their
orders. The last few months have been
good thing for the millers, and, with
con tinued demands, they will recoup
the losses of the past year or two, and
have handsome SURPRISES besides. The
wool market remains quiet, although
the WOODEN mills of the country are all
in operation. The corn crop is moving
rapidly to market. and the price of this
cereal is being maintained in defiance
of the great crop.
Upon the whole. the business outlook
is promising, and year of prosperity
seems to be almost assured.

AN ARTISTS DREAM.

Paint me lot of ancestors"
Said Miss Scntillatia Brown,
In the studio grand of the artist swell,
Whose work was the talk of the town.
''Paint me u lot of ancestors
Both medium, large and small,
Both full length portraits with shapely legs
And half-engths with none at all.
''Paint me a lot of ancestors
From the middle ages up;
From Sir Hugh the Knight with his charger
white
To my dad with his prize bull pup
want 'em in velvet and samite and silk,
And in corselets of linked steel;
For Pepper has struck it uncommon rich
In the recent railroad deal.
1T was in Shecaughgo we used to hang out
But now in Ne York we reside;
And fain would fix it to work the snap
70 become nobleman's bride.
So lineage proud am bound to have,
For I've bought heraldic devIce;-
So paint me a full line of ancestors,
And Pepper is good for the price.
Il want some particular ancestors"
And she blushed the least little bit
"a cavalier with a Gainsborough hat
And bootlegs that aren't a fit;
And a clean-shayen one with a powdered
peruke,
And breeches that come to the knee
You needn't make 'em too Browny- Brown
Brown;
But they ought to look something like me-
And as to the falcons and pages and things,
l will leave them entirely to you
I'd like one pirate-just one, you know
Unless you don't think 'twould do.
But oh, do throw your artistic soul
Into helmets, tiaraS and crowns,
And make me the last of an elegant line
Of superior Brown-de-B rowns!'
And then up and arose the artist chap,
And then up and arise0 he:
And he said: IF family's what you seek
oh, come to the arms of mel
am only a humble child of art,
And pOyertystruck / am;
But nv name is Washington Wellington

To the caste of We're de We're:
And my father was marquis of Rond de Boeuf,
And likewise comte de st. Cyr.
My shield is quartered before and behind,
Though haven't q golden PUNK
But he said no more for the parvenu maid
She dropped in his arms kerfunk.
She married him three years ago last May,
That artist of lineage blue;
And now she has ancestors all she wants
And little descendant or two.

A WESTERN WEDDING,
After Which They Went Forth
Rosy as q June Morning.

After Which They Went Forth
Rosy as a June Morning.
1t happened long ago in a Western
mining town. There wasn't preacher
in the place, and when an exceedingly
raw young man and woman desired to
get married the services of the police
judge were called in. says the Detroit
Free Press. He had never had any ex-
perlence in that branch of his author
lite, but, with true Western enterprise,
he agreed to tackle the job, and the cul-
prits were brought before him.
Stand up" he said, as they seated
themselves, and they stood up.
Come forward to the bar of JUSTICE"
he continued with pompous effort, and
they came.
Guilty or not guilty?" he asked as
they stood before him holding hands.
Guilty, your honor" responded the
groom.
els this your first offense?"
ut is, your honor, so help me-"
'Well, there's nothing to do but i'm
pose life sentence on both of you and
assess the groom for the costs.'
''How much. your honor?" asked the
groom, going down into his pockets.
Ten dollars"
The groom handed it over.
Case is dismissed" announced the
judge, and the innocent young things
marched out of the room as radiant as
June morning when the sunlight
kisses the roses until they blush again.

will be opportunity for the expenditure
of no end of mental activity.
Somebody has recently attacked
CHAUNCEY M. DEPEw because he spent
so much time at dinner parties, but he
has replied that it is there he gets the
recreation which fits him for bis more
serious duties. This is fair position
for the great orator to take, and no as
piring young man need make hermit
of himself because he is fearful that his
best energies will be consumed in friv-
Olity if he enters where the whirl is
raging. Everybody is bound to devote
some time to other pursuits than those
which make for material progress,
and many hours will surely be lost
in some form of distraction, whether 1t
be the distraction of the ball room or of
some other place. There are many OBJ
jections which can be truthfully urged
against what is known as society, but, as
it is constituted in most places, its alb
sorbing and consuming interest is not
one of them. 1t often paves the way to
close friendships and attachment. the
light of which burns with flame be-
dimming every other experience, and
robbing one of his strength for other
duties. But by itself it offers no Seri-
Gus temptations. The man or woman
who, having the taste for such things,
cannot attend all the social rOutS that
are going and bear his part manfully in
the consideration of all the questions
which are brought before these and col
lateral occasions without having head
ache the next morning, or finding his
mind wandering from his work, is made
of too weak stuff to accomplish very
much, anyhow. There are wise people
who claim, perhaps with justice, that
the social life is lnsipld; but the expe-
rienced critic who brings more serious
accusations against it is vet to be found.

Presently her father called to her from
