FUNERAL, OF JAMES NUGENT.

victed election officials, took place from

The funeral was quite large one, there
being over fifty CO. ches in line. A great
many citizens attended the services. in

terry.

A Bride with Some Good Points.

Some years ago in an agricultural dis
trict there lived q farmer who wanted TO
sell one of his cows. There was not at
that time weekly paper in which he
could advertise. SO he resolved to follow
local custom and ask the vicar of the
parish when giving out his notices aC
church to advertise the COW.
Yes, farmer" said the vicar. 'Tshould
be willing to oblige you. butyou don't at
tend my church"
Presently. however. they struck bar
gain that the vicar should advertise the
COW. and the man in return promised to
go to church. Unfortunately the man
was deaf, and on the Sunday following
when the vicar gave out the banns Of
marriage between Joseph So-aud-so,
bachelor, and Sarah So-andeso. spinster,
the farmer took it for granted that the
vicar was giving out particulars OF his
cow, and shouted out:-"You might as
we'll say while you are about it that she
is most gentle creature, entirely free
from vice, and is strongly crossed with
the Alderney breed. p London Telegraph

AS there is only one Fifth avenue, so
there is only one South Fifth avenue in
New York. The one is continuation
of the other, but historical old Wash
ington square is the dividing line. AT
that point elegance and fashion leave
off, and Bohemia begins. Yes, more
erty; but, like many another question
able quarter of New York. this section
south of Washington square has it's
bright side.
On Christmas night even South Fifth
avenue shows signs of brightness. The
little cramped grocery stores near West
Third street put out their choicest
Christmas goods, and the evergreens in
the shop windows, in the shape of
Wreaths, crosses, festOOnS and trees,
were as fresh and green as though they
were offered for sale by their up-toH II
neighbors. The saloons were blazing
with light; the little cigar stores showed
their goods invitingly in the windows,
and the fruit stands, presided over by
swarthy Italians, offered tempting ex-
hiblt to the men, women and children
who live in the crowded tenement
houses in the vicinity.
Christmas night. There are few shop
pers in this portion of the city. On al
most any other night in the year would
South Fifth avenue be more lively. The
great Illuminated cross Oh the Judson
memorial glimmered and f1ickered in
the sharp, frosty night, the elevated
train swung ponderously, like some
great cOilipg monster, down West Third
street and into the avenue; crowd of
merry mechanics come out of one of the
corner saloons; a rough looking man
stopped to beg from one better dressed
than himself, and a bell in some far-off
steeple chimed o'clock. 1t wasdate
for the frequenters of 1.-The Black CAT"
but it was Christmas night. %
A little old man. in shabby coat and
a tall hat of the season before, walked
as brIskly as his weak little legs would
carry him past the beggar. the merry
crowd of jewellers, the brightly lighted
saloons, and up the steps of "Tne Black
Cat' Except his cigarette and glass of
wine before retiring, there was perhaps
nothing NJ. Penoid enjoyed more than
table d'hote dinner at his favOrite

That night he was sad and thought
full. He was thinking of Paris, his boy

TELLO'S TREE.
It VIII Be One of Gotham's Most
Interesting Christmas Fc a lures.

1t VIII Be one Oh GOtndm MUst
Interesting Christmas Fc a lures.
Perhaps you do not know TellO, but,
if not, Christmas is the very time to get
acquainted. Tello always has tree for
his barefoOts.
A boy of fifteen, founder and editor of
a monthly magazine with a circul alton
of 10000 copies, must. from the very
novelty of his position be figure
worthy Of every boys attention. Seven
or eight years ago chubby, brown
eyed lad living in New York city would
say often to his parents in drawing their
attention to some ragged urchin ON the
street: when all old enough | will
do something to give those fellows good
shoes and stockings" And when cues
toned what scheme he had to obtain
money for the purpose would answer:
II don't know just yet, but L will tnd
some way of doing it,"
At II, When other plans had been tried
without success, Tello resolved to start
small paper for boys aud girls, the
proceeds to be devoted to permanent
barefoot fund.
In April. 1880. the Sunny Hour, a
monthly paper published "by boy for
boys and girls" was entered according
to act of congress by Tello d'ADery in
the Office of the librarian OF congress,
Washington, D. e. The first edition
was 1000 copies 1t was small, neat,
eight-page paper. printed in large. clear
type on thick, cream colOred paper.
One of the first steps of its young
editor was to send Il copy of his publi~
cation, containing an article defining its
object and purpose, to the Queen of
England. To this the young editor re-
ceived a graceful acknowledging
through Sir Francis Knollis, stating
that her majesty felt greatly inter
ested in the project, and would be
pleased TO become Il subscriber. Today
there is hardly a reigning sovereign i'll
the world from whom Tellod' Apery has
not received similar expressions of
hearty encouragement and good Will.
His office is perfect art museum OF
portraits OF celebrities.
The boys courageous venture was
from the first Il success. The circula-
ton has increased tweuty.fold. the pa
per has been enlarged TO twice Its for
mer size, and, strange as il may seem,
tue little journal has today more cele-
brated writer's contributing To it than
any publication in the world.
Dubois Menant, the great French
artist, sends quarterly II full-pagc Illus
tration; Suily Prudhomme, the first
French poet of today, gives yearly Two
OF three poems TO the Sunny Hour.
Prince Lucien Bonaparte, Pierre Lott,
Nine. Cedrau, of the Nouvelle Revue
and Sir Edwin Arnold are only IA few of
many others equally we'll known.
The rello of today Is a tall. manly lad
of fifteen, with dark Eyes that meet
yours in clear. level glance. rather
pale olive skin, delicate. firmly nodded
features and slngularly musical voice.
1t is, perhaps. Tello's greatest attrac-
ton that, in spite OF the results which
he has already achieved. he is still, in
the words OF one of his most ardent boy
admirerers, Just jolly good fellow,

sengers Of love, they leave no mark.
They cannot be utilized In breach OF
promise case. A man may pour out all
his soul In kiss. he may offer himself,
and his possessions, with the most pas
siunate fervOr In this WOrdleSs man
ner, but as long as his letters don't
match his kisses, he has not compro
missed himself.
The kisses that mark the relationship
between aunts, nieceS and graudmoth-
ers are, perhaps, the coolest samples of
the articles INDUCED in. They are not
really kisses, and they ought to be
stopped by some one who has the
amount CT moral courage required in a
reformer. Women don't care very much
about kissing each other. There is very
little love in women's kisses. They do
| 1t sometimes because they love each
other, but rarely; sometimes because it
| is the proper thing, ana sometimes, and
! oftener, to arouse spirit OF envy in
men who happen to be near.
And now Redtern is talking about the
revival OF the styles which we thought
were going to be handed down to pos
terity only in those photographs, which
are marked by prepOderance Of skirts,
very diminutive bodices, and meek
| about the shoulders.
Why didn't our foremothers and
auntS leave us some of these antiquities,
and then there would be no need
for ladies TO rush frantically round
| to Redfern and implore him to get
them ready something, quickly, in this
dreadful style which he says they must
wear, and to please. please. please, dear
Mr.. Redfern, not to make them look too
much like caricatureSi
Yes, it is very certain that bodices
form quite the minor part of the cos
tune and that skirts are achieving a
circumference already which is raising
cry of terror from every woman who
values her appearance. About nine
and a half yards, Redfern says relent-
lessly. That adds that is the
widest which will be made just at pres
ent.
Good heavens Isn't that wide
enough!
The skirts of the outdoor garments
must increase in proportion, and coats
are .accordingly cut with the skirts very
much gored. No bodice now to be
really fashionable is cut below the
waist line, and this portion of the gown
gains in width what it looses in length.
The shoulder is almost diSprOpOrtiOn-
ately loaded with trimming, and this is
sinking lower and lower on the sloping

New YORK, Dec. 22.-I have long
passed the age of kissing. This will per
haps make me a little bit uninteresting
through my weekly ar icle to see if
crinolineS are really to be worn. and
what sort of gown is correct to wear
to a chocolate lunch. But, ladies, /
have still memories of kisses, now
ghosts and phantoms, although | be-
lieve that am what the world-the
modern world, that is not particular
about hurting peoples feelings-calls
an old bachelor. | confess that the
mstletot of the season now upon us is
no severe temptation to me. The most
dimpled, roSe-inted velvet cheek, the
softeSt- curved mouth, or the throat with
the most alabaster wilderness, are all
delights that l can easily pass OH to my
youngers. But every dog has had his
day, you know, and the sort of day in
some cases which would surprise many
of all old dogs juniors. |, a grizzled,
sarcastic person. with liking for res
taurants where petticoats are not
admitted and a shrewd way of
summing up the ingredients Of a daz-
zling complexion; who know the Sc
cIM,S of padding and the architecture Of
a fashionable tigure-I can give the
present race of ardent youth tip or two
about kissing. | would not attempt to
teach my juniors much, they know so
much more than any one older can pos
sibly know-they have such a cynical
scorn of old customs that when l see
young couple in Il recess, with their
faces in close proximity, and apparently
enjoying the sensation of touch in an
eloquent silence, wonder that they
condeScend to such primitive way of
expressing their feelings. But as yet
no more "up to date" sign Of an amor
Gus feeling has been invented that can
be expressed in as fauItlesS d manner.
The youth of today kisses in exactly the
same manner as the youth of very
long past yesterday. There is nothing
progressive about kissing. 1t is per.
haps the only thing that is never learnt,
never taught, and the only thing which
we have not improved upon. But there
are different ways OF kissing.
In speaking of kissing, one naturally
thinks of lovers kisses. | have theory
Il didn't have 1t in the days when |
prachSed the art of kissing. and |
notice no lovers ever practice this
theory, and it is tbs: DON'T kiss too
much. How can thing have any sig
nificance when it is an hourly, nay
sometimes half hourly affair. A kiss
should mean something. 1t should be
practiced on grand occasions, in supreme
moments, in times when the heart pre-
vents any other language. Kisses
should be the passion flowers of life,
and not be squandered in common
place moments. But am aware that
am wasting my eloquence, if lovers
have wasted innumerable kisses ever
since the world began. they will prob
ably go OH doing so until it ends. There
