the LIGHTHOUSE at the end of the pier A
few minutes later her husband came to
join her, but was Intercepted by one of .he
urchins.
Say, mister, is that your girl?" asked the
boy
''She is my wife, replied the young man.
WELL tell her to go home, cause we boys
want to go in swimmin'," said the young
ster, and, thinking that would settle the
matter, they retired to the dockhouse to
vi dress.
The young man promptly informed the
wife of the request, but she was enjoying
herself. and was not anxious to leave. She
laughed and called to new arrival at the
dockhouse: Tell the boys" she said, ito

wish to. / won't look"
The little fellow hurried back to the dock
house with the message, and there was an
Immediate council Of war. At its conclusion

reasons does rot care to have his name
printed on this occasion, secured a parlor
car seat on IN express train for Reading a
few days ago, and as he was about to pass
through the gates was surprised to hear
himself accosted in feminine tones with
the somewhat startling question: please,
mister, could borrow you for awhile?''
Looking around, he found two bnxom wo-
men, who hastily and hesitatingly explain
ed that they were riding on a pass made
out in the name of a gentleman and his
wife, and, as the gentleman was not pres
ent they wanted the genial-looking citizen
to place his bought ticket at the disposal
of one lady and take the other one under
his wing. while he personated the absent
owner of the pass.
(Which is my wife?" he inquired with an
inward qualm, lest his own absent better
half should ever hear the story.
'sYou can take your choice, sir" said the
lady in search of an escort and he prompt
Iy did so by taking the arm Of the youngest
fair one under his own and leading her in

jolly travelling companions, and the citi-
zen's only regret in the transaction was
due to a fear that the story might leak out
and get home ahead Of him But it didn't.

Kept House in a Chimney.
, Txftar fo fbe Joudop Tele9r9Db

A curious case Of desertion is Just re-
ported from a regiment Quartered in a
provincial town. About two months ago
one of the soldiers disappeared, and no
clue to his whereabouts having been OBJ
tanned, 1t was presumed that he had left
the country. AS some of the men We're
inspecting the barracks roof yesterday
they perceived few wraps in a chimney
and further examination revealed to view
their missing comrade,in a state Of squalor
and reduced almost to skeleton. He said
that as he had no taste for military life
he had resolved to desert, but that. not
daring to leave the barracks, he had in
stalled himself in the chimney, going down
to the court yard at night in search of food
among the refuse piled up in a corner. The
man has been removed to the military hos
pital in very precarious condition.
