A Creed of Love.

Do not keep the alabaster boxes Of
your love and tenderness sealed up until
your friends are dead. Fill their lives
with sweetness. Speak approving, cheer
ing words while their ears can hear
them and while their hearts can be
thrilled and made happier by them. The
kind things you mean to say when they
arc gone say before they go. The fiow-
ers you mean to send for their coffins
send to brighten and sweeten their
homes before they leave them. If my
friends have alabaster boxes laid away
full of fragrant perfumes Of sympathy
and affection which they intend to break
over my dead body, would rather they
would bring them out in my weary and
troubled hours and open them, that L
may be refreshed and cheered by them
while need them. Iwould rather have
a plain coffin without flower, funeral
without eulogy, than life without
the sweetness of love and sympathy. Let
us learn to anoint our friends before
hand for their burial. Post mortem
kindness does not cheer the burdened
spirit. Flowers on the coffin cast no
fragrance backward over the weary way.
George W. Childs.

Mrs. Snoodle enthusiastically. Would
you not like pipe, dearest? You haven't
had a smoke since supper time, and I'm
sure you deserve one after your terrible
exertiona AS you know, John, never
object to your smoking anywhere, ex-
oept in bed. That will not allow"
"Quite right, Martha. There's no
telling what such practice might lead
to" remarked Mr.. Snoodle thoughtful
ly, lighting his pipe.
Fancy, John, said Mrs. Snoodle,
fancy me smelling those burglars smok-
ing! What impudence they've got! How
ever, if hadn smeiled the smoke, we
shouldn't have discovered the burglars.
So we may say our property was saved
by pipe, may we not?'

Gold Digging.

Perhaps it was not an old "forty-
miner" who gave the following descrip-
tion, but it was man who knew the
work III question. Like most enthusi-
hsts, however, he undertakes the trial
and disappointment involved:
It's the prettiest work ever did. It's
the fascination of it, when you've
struck it pretty rich and see your gold
right in front of you, when you're pill
ing it up every half hour of the day,
with nugget now and again as big as
a bullet to cheer you.
And then when the evening comes
and you count it up and find it hun
dred odd dollars just picked out O. the
earth that day-well, there's nothing
like It'll
Then when you don't strike it you al
ways think you're going to next day,
and it's just as exciting hearing other
men tell in the evening what they've
pulled out as it is counting over your
own. Why, I've been three or four
months at time without making a dol
lar and without cent in my pocket;
but, gee whitaker, the excitement of it

Tho Designing Woman.

1t is true that we read q good deal
about "the designing woman" in novels
written by ladies' 1t gives them pleas
ure to describe these dexterous and willy
creatures doing such mischief among the
other sex. Mothers, too, believe that
their pure and innocent sons are always
in danger from these unprincipled young
persons. And yet the fact is that at ~
none of them can hold candle for evil
intention to any ordinary youth of II.
The hypocrisy with which for their own
ends men affect to fall in with the fe-
male view of Irritation and the design
ing woman" is contemptible Even the
most impudent of them seldom venture
to adopt it among themselves The
tongue in their cheek is too obvious. =

NEW YORK, April 25.--Ohicago Gas was OF
course the great feature of the share specula'
tion on the stock exchange today plenty oil
rumors had been circulated as 10 the adverse
effect of the gas trust decision in Illinois. 1t
was stated hat an injunction restraining pay
mont of dividends would be applied for at once
and granted; that the forfeitures of the char
ters OF the several companies in the trust would
follow and that a total disruption of the Chi
cago Gas company would be the outcome. AS a
consequence, blocks OF stock were thrown upon
the market at opening, the first price being o4
which wrs 276 per cent below yesterdays fig
ures, and 1000 shares were sold between that
price and 90 before the stock exchange official
reporters could catch up with the quotations
This was the lowest point touched, and when II
was reached buying orders were uncovered, be-
lteved to be for account OF insiders, who had
sold at the highest price OF last week. These
purchases of the stock had a gteadylng elect,
and checked the selling movement. The maj
sales were at recovery OF q CT "a per cent Pc
low the last prices yesterday. Omclals OF tne
company profess to feel no alarm az the sltua
ton Tney scout the forfeiture o. the charter
of any of the combined companies.

pAARAo4's DAUGHTER AND MOSES.

Whin Pharaoh's daughter
Wint down to the winter
ehure there was young Moses a-swimmin
around,
Nid his basket all handy
And stick of swRte candy
70 kape him from cryin until he was found.
See she to n maiden:
Bring here the young haythen.
Your trotters be shakin, ye lazy colleen.
II the water once wets him,
Or the alligators gets him,
IT'S no crocodile's tears you'll be shcddin,
ween."
So whin from his swimmn
He was brought to tho wimmln,
Faith II shows how the blarney's females
chief joy.
A nate bow ho was maxim,
just AZ shure as I'm spakin,
"Besorra," rays sho hes the broth Of boy"
