One Thousand people assembled in
a New York town to witness the
lynching of colored man the other

A few days past we accidently sent
Col. Fairbrother of the Durham
Globe Daily printed on only one
side-which inspired the Col. to write
the following lines. The Colonel's
poems are like some of his Editorials,
they smell like sulphur.
All there, old boy,
Dear Colonel Foy,
Pray tell me what you mean?
You're not crank,
With views so blank,
As all of this ween;
Your "loathsome" sheet
Perhaps is neat,

But pray me tell

Speaking of up" and down" in
England reminds me of Il friends ex-
perience. On his arrival in Liverpool
he wished to visit a hat store without
delay. He was conveyed by fellow
passenger to "a large establishment,
where hats were only one of a dozen
things that were sold.
Where is the hat department." in
quired the newcomer.
Clear up to the top, sir, as far as yoU
can CO." was the answer of the clerk ad-
dressed. whose accompanying gesture
showed that he did not mean the highest
story of the building, but the extreme
end of the shop.
The next day my friend was in Ches-
ter cathedral 1t was Sunday and at
the hour of service, and the place was
pretty full. Looking about for seat,
he was accosted by a verger, who in
formed him that You can't get any
seat. sir. unless you go clear down to the
bottom" What the man meant by the
bottom was the portion of the editce
nearest the altar.
Londoners also speak of the top" and
bottom of a street, where New York
ers say head" and foot. Cor. New

A Youthful Artist Finds That She Does

She came to see me the other day,
looking tired and miserable, and while
she rested in my biggest and contest
chair pressed her to tell Inc what was
wrong.
We'll" she said finally. Il will teli
you. 1t all comes from being Mrs.
Blanks latest fad. You are surprised.
but it's quite true. You know, Mrs
Blank, having nothing else to occupy
her mind, is always slave to some fad
or other Once it was Browning, later
on it was athletics and finally changed
to china painting. and now l am her
particular fad. You see, she met me
when the china painting craze was on
her, and as have some little skill and
reputation as a china decorator she
came TO see me frequently about hex
work At last she veered around from
china painting to me. When Mrs. Blank
first took me up it was "A matter Of
considerable rejoicing, not only to my
fellow artists, but to myself.
Mrs. Blank is a woman of wealth and
prominence, and naturally any person
and patronage would soon become well
known and gain considerable custom
Well, I've had few orders-nOt many.
You see, Mrs. Blanks friends are so well
aware of her habit of going daft about
something or other at recurrent inter
walls that they don't put much faith in
her recommendations. However, it's
quite as well, for l shouldn't have time
to do anything anyhow. haven't had

monopolizes all my time. Do get set

studio. along comes I1rs. Blank and
says:
Now You must come up to So-and-
SOS with me. It's an opportunity you
can't afford to neglect. You'll get lots
of new ideas. Got something to do:
Oh. nonsense! Come along and do that
afterward. Ideas are the thing-not La
bor.' Or she sends me note to come
to luncheon, as she wants to see me par
ticularly. and then she keeps me there
all day. What does she want? Nothing,
except to talk to me. That's why she
likes me. She likes to talk. Now yOu
know / do not shine in conversation and
| can listen till the heavens fall. Well,
she sits by the hour and pours into my
ears the tale of her emotions, her ideas,
her experiences. her views, her aspira~
tions and her opinions of her neighbors-
And am weak enough TO let her do it,
all because people say, How lucky for
YOU that Mrs Blank is so interested In
you!
Il used to be spoken of as Miss Smith,
promising young china painter Now
I'm alluded to as Miss Smith, Mrs
Blanks young protege.'
''Oh, l tell you there's nothing in this

sure, as rule it is something that don't
last long, but it's wearing while it does

The smooth raised edge running about
the face of the modern coins and inclOs-
ing the device as a frame incloses a pic
ture, not only adds "a great deal to the
beauty of the piece, but serves a double
utilitarian purpose-frst to protect the
design from wear, and second to afford
a horizontal surface so that the coins
may be piled up vertically one on top of
another without danger of topping over.
AS soon as the raised edge is worn from
the coin it loses its clear beauty Of de-
sign and fast degenerates into charac-
terless disk of metal. Owing to the
long rest which metallic currency had
in this country during the reign Of
greenbacks and sh:Hplasters, United
States coins are remarkably clear cut
and well preserved. Even coins minted
before the war retain part of the milling.

A LrttIe chi .,rith run raoa1.


| heard a strange thing the other day,
slys a writer in The Examiner. It was of
a little girl who had two faces. When she
is dressed upft<her best clothes, when some
friends are expected to come to tea, or
when she is going out with her mother to
call on some ~neighbors, she looks so bright
and sweet and good that you would like to
kiss her. With a nice white dress on, and
perhaps a blue sash and pretty little shoes,
she expects her mothers friends will say:
What "A little darlingf' or, What asweet
fice, let, me Kiss itp' And so she always
has a nice smile on hey face, and when she
is spoken to she says, Eyes, ma'am," mo,
ma'am," when she ought, and '"Thank
you," very sweetly when anything is
given her.
Bat, do you know, when she is alone
with her mother aud no company is ex-
pected, she does not look at all like the
same little girk If she cannot nave what
she would like, or do just what she wishes,
she will pout and scream and CRY, and no
one would ever think Of Kissing her then.
I also know a little girl who has only one
face, which is always as sweet as a peach,
and never sweeter han when she is at
home and her mother wants her to be rs
useful as she can and help her. / think !
need scarcely ask you which of these fttlsi
girls you like best, or which of them you
would most like to resemble.

Would and SHOULD.

A pupil in a quiet boarding schooFf
Pennsylvania displayed some time since no
small degree of industry in collecting au
tographs of distinguished persons. James
Russell Lowell was one of the number adj
dressed. The address to him was in sub.
stance, II would be very much obliged for
your Autograph" The response contained
a lesson that many besides the ambitious
pupil have not learned: "Pray do not say
hereafter. | would be Obliged II you
would be obliged, be obliged and be done
with it, Say, 4 should be obliged. and
obIige, yours truly, James Russell Lowell"

THE SICK f GAVE A FEW FAINT cHIRPs.
and eachseemed to have something to say.
After about fifteen minutes had been spent
in this manner, a healthy young Dominick
hen that was laying eggs every day and
had shown no signs of desiring to set, step
ped out from among the rest and took her
position by the side of the sick hen.
Upon this the mother hen gave a few
faint chirps which all the chickens answer
ed with q chirp. Then the mother looked
toward the Dominick and gave two or
three chicks, to which the Dominick re.
sponded for the first time with 'clucki
cluckP' and the chickens answered with
peep! peepi' in concert, and all rushed
upto the Dominick. The mother hen gave
two or three farewell chirps, and the new
mother walked off with the brood, cluck.
ing and scratching as vigorously for them
as if she had herself Matched the brood.
The Dominick and brood, never went near
the mother again. She died the next day,
and the Dominick protected and faithfully
raised the chicks committed to her care.
This seemed to those who witnessed it as
genuine a case of giving away children be-
fore death as we witness among human
kind. These creatures must have com.
inundated with each other about the mat.
ter, Judging from their actions, and the old
saying that ACTIONS speak louder than
words" was true in this case.
