The Ass as Mentioned In Shakespeare.

Aho <Abo I'D 4fAcuUAOucu LA SAAdhcbpcdVos
The only ass spoken handsomely of or to
in Shakespeare's plays is Bully Bottom in
that guise, while, on the. other hand, the
opprobrious application of the name meets
us at every turn. "What an ass art thou"
heartily calculates Speed to Launce C'Two
Gentlemen of Verona" 2, 81. "Preposterous
ass' cries Lucentlo, seeking to drown Hor-
tensio's music. Even Caliban thus re-
proaches himself c'Tempest," s, y:
What athrice double ass
Was to take this drunkard for god
And worship this dull fool!
Antipholus of Ephesus says blandly to
Dromio, II think thou art an ass" which
provokes the retort e Comedy Of Errors"
8, ~:
Marry, so 1t doth appear,
By the wrongs suffer, and the blows bear,
I should kick, being kicked; and, being at that
pass,
You would keep from my heels and beware of
an ass.

A Society Man Tells How to Make ar
Agreeable First Impression.


Agreeable First Impression.
A call upon woman should always be
made in the afternoon. AT least in New
York we call at no other time, choosing, If
possible, the hour when the tea is brought
In, and 1t is neither daylight nor dusk
Bend your card slightly at one end, SO that
1t laps over about quarter of an inch,
when you hand 1t to the man. Never stay
any longer than Is minutes, and always
as In whist-reserve your best card for the
coup d'etat. Rise Immediately after you
have said or have tried to say something
either brilliant or entertaining or at least
amusing. Go then at once and do not
daily for long adieu, keeping your host
ess standing. Your visit will then leave an
agreeable impression, and you will no
doubt hear-if it is your first call-from
the man who brought you that Miss Jones
or Miss Smith had remarked to him few
nights afterward at the assembly, or the
theater, or even the vaudeville club: What
a charming man that Mr.. Brown isl He
was in such form. / wish he would call
again, and intend to send him q card for
dinner at an early ay."-Vogue.
The Etiquette of the Signature.
So far as the etiquette Of the signature Is
concerned, there is one unvary1ng rule for
women, married and single. 1t Is never right
nor in good form to sign ones name with
the addition of Miss or Mrs. You are Mary
Emily Jones, not Mrs. Patrick Fitzgerald
Jones, to whomsoever you are writing. If
it is necessary to notify your correspondent
Of your married style and estate, you may
do so in one of several ways. Please re-
member that a correspondent should not
be left in doubt as to this, much embar-
rassment being frequently caused by the
omission in letters between strangers of ex-
act information as to whether the writer is
married or single. You may readily indi-
cate all you wish to tell. You may place
Mrs. P. F. before the Mary Emily afore-
said In parentheses. You may write Mrs.
Patrick Fitzgerald out fully and plainly in
the left hand corner of your sheet-below
your.proper signature-or you may simply
inclose your engraved visiting card in your
letter, this being on the whole the most ele-
gent and e.lso the most convenient method
Of showing ones relation TO society. Har-
per's Bazaar, authority for the foregoing, re-
marks, however, that the visiting card Is
out.of place In an exclustTely business1et-

A LITTLE HISTORY.

JOHN HART, an old tuner OF st. Paul.
gives an interesting bit of history ane1ts
the days of the ST. Paul & Pacific rail-
way. which began operating between
st. Paul and Minneapolis in 1861. aud
afterward became part of the Great
Northern. Then the merchants of ST.
Paul were compelled to lay i'll immense
stocks of goods i'll the fall-enough to
carry them through the long winter.
The river was the great source of freight
traffic, and about all the city and coun-
try was came about through this water
artery. The back country was developed
only on the lines of the Minnesota and
Red rivers.
Steamboatlng was in its palmy days.
The railways have broug Mt about new
order of things. The rivers have lost
their prestige, though they are still inn
portant. The merchants are not CON-
PEELED to make large investments in
stocks of goods. and can turn their
money over quickly. and to much better
advantage than in the old time.
Millions of dollars were put in circu-
lation in st. Paul and throughout the
Northwest by railway building. and a
great tide of immigration began to flow
over the region. At length the North.
ern Pacific stretched itself across an
expanse of nearly 1000 miles, opening
up another new country; and now the
Great Northern reaches from st. Paul
to Puget sound. opening up still an
other new country to the north.
