Woman, the new or old, may not be
able to drive nail without hitting her
fingers every other time, but she can
stow away more articles in chatelaine
bag than a man can in the seventeen
pockets of which he boasts.
This was proven by bright news

A young woman who earns q hand.
some salary as secretary for a great
corporation, maintains her aged father
and mother in large institution at an
expenditure Of at least rs per cent Of
her entire income, says an English pa
per. She Is bright and talented, and,
unburdened by this care, could quick
ly acquire name and independence; but
such considerations seem never to
weigh with her, for she is ever cheer
ful-even gay-as though free Of re-
sponsibllity, For their comfort she
occupies lodgings as near as possible to
the institution, and every evening she
pays them visit Of love and cousola-
ton. Her route home lays through a
deserted orchard, and Its loneliness
has caused her parents great anxiety
and herself no little apprehension, al
though she affects, in their company, to
make light Of 1t. For their comfort, the
young lady has hit upon plan to let
them know when she has arrived safe
ly home. She lights her lamp, and al
ternately exposing 1t before the win
dow and shading 1t with her hand she
signals them across quarter Of milo

Her mother being belfast, the dotlng
old father usually manages to send
back an answering signal, so that both
she and her parents may retire, know
ing that all is well, A few nights
since the young lady failed to get her
answering signal, and, in great sus-
pense, fearing that some harm had be-
fallen her loved ones during her journey
homeward, she hurried back over the
lonely-even dangerous-path, only to
find that her father, feeble and absent
minded, had failed to make his signals
although at first he protested that he
had and that she had not answered.

BANK CLEARINGS.

Ther9 is some doubt as to the rela. ton between the showing made by bank clearings and general prosperity. It depends somewhat upon the preva- lent manner of doing business, but an increase in bank clearings is usually and safely regarded as a good sign; at any rate. it cannot possibly be construed to be a bad sign.
 Newspapers all over the country are pointing cheerfully to reports of bank clearings which almost everywhere show rapid and constant increase as compared with any year since 1890.
 A gentleman connected with Phe- nix bank has taken the trouble to com pare the aggregate business of the banks of this city with that of year ago, and the result denotes that there is four times as great commercial activity now as then. He has ascertained, what is perhaps more surprising, that busi' ness in the banks at the dullest season of the year is much heavier than it was last winter.

G.A R. Cheap Railroad Excursion.
 The wisdom of the national commit tee in selecting a city so centrally To- cated, easy ot access, as Louisville, Ky., for the twenty ninth annual encamp- ment of the Grand Army of the Repub- lie, Septemb Der 11th to 14th, is fully justified, judging from the numerous ina uiries received from all parts of the country relative to transportation facili' ties, passenger rates. limits of tickets, etc.
 In anticipation of very large atten. dance, the Baltimore & Ohio South western railway (formerly the o. & M. R'y), the leading route to Louisville from the west, north and east, has made preparations to afford visitors every facility, both in the way of low rates and fast trains, handsomely and comfortably equipped, from all it's ter minal points. Three daily trains St. Louis to Louisville; two trains daily (except Sunday Beardstown and Springfield to Louisville; three daily trains Cincinnati to Louisville; two daily trains Parkersburg to Louisville. Rate via B. & 0. S-W By will not ex- ceed one cent per mile. Tickets will be on sale September 9th to 11th, in- elusive, good returning until October 9th, 1895.
 One of the principal events following the close of the encampment will be the dedication of the Chickamauga Nation al Military Park, Chattanooga, Tenn. to which excursion rate from Louis- vile, Ky, will not be higher than one cent per mile. In addition there will i be cheap excursions run from Louis vile to the various battlefelds in the vicinity.
