A Practical Wooer.

A young lady, who was the recipient
of attention from two young men equal
ly eligible in point of good looks. social
position and financial solidity, and en-
tertained similar feelings for both, was
in a quandary as to which to choose
should they propose. A friend TO whom
she confided her difficulty suggested
that she should put both to some test TO
prove the strength of their affection.
She took the advice, and to the first who
avowed his affection said:
You tell me that you love me. How
do know that you are sincere? What
would you do to show your love:"
Anything" replied the ardent low
er, who had spice of romance in his
disposition. "Anything-Iwo would go to
the worlds end for you I would die
for you. if necessary.
Such ardent protcstations brought the
blushes to her cheeks and n thrill OF
happiness to her, and she thought that
certainly no one could love her more
fondly than he did She asked him,
however, for little delay before giving
an answer to his suit.
Meanwhile the other proposed. and
she questioned him in like manner
We'll, said he, I'm tell you what
would do TO show you my love If you
marry me, you shall have good clothes
to wear. will see that you are always
the owner Of handsome sealskin jack
ct, and that Your hats or bonnets are al
ways in fashion. and will be y faith
full and loving husband to you"
But wouldn't you go to the worlds
end for me or any of that sort of thing.
you know" she asked as she toyed
with his coat buttons
II don't want to go to the worlds
end, he replied I've got nice pay
ing business here. and, rs for dying for
you, I'd rather live with you"
Well, said she rs visions of the
sealskin jacket and fashionable bonnets
flashed before her mind, Il think you
can speak to pa.

Non, Daniel Stickney.

In the death of Hon. Daniel Stickney q
Auburn, Thursday, Maine loses one of it,
oldest, and best know journalists. Mr..
Stickney was a man of marked personality
and more than ordinary ability. He was
often the victim of his strong prejudices,
and sometimes hascible in his manner. AT
the same time he was q man of quick
sympathies and generous impulses. He was
always devoted and loyal friend. Although
he came to editorial work at q somewha,
advanced age he soon showed that it was his
proper vocation. Loving truth for it,
own sake he was aggressively fearless in
defending it. He was bold and uncom-
promising in attacking what he believed to
be wrong. and in upholdiug what he be-
lieved to be right. Tact was never one Of
his possessions. He was the ideal fight
ing editor" In politics, he was an earnest,
uncompromising Republican. During the
War of the Rebellion he did noble service
for his country's cause as editor Of the
Loyal Sunrise. Not only did he make his
paper power for the union in
Northern Maine; but bis edito-
rails possessed an intellectual yigor,
forcefulness of expression, and an abso-
lutte faith in the ultimate triumph of the
federal government, that gave his paper an
influence outside the limits of his own
State which has rarely been exercised by
SO small and unpretentious a publication.
Mr.. Stickney was a strong advocate Of
temperance and practiced what he
preached. His busy life-work, fruitful in
good to his fellow men, will be his best
monument .= r.
