Miss Laborre," said Mr.. Askam, aft

aumber of topics, my object in CALI
ng upon you this evening is to consult
you about a step / hope soon to take IN
my life. 1t is a step upward, and L

Miss Lahore, I trust soon to be-to
be married." says the Kansas City
World.
Indeed Mr.. Askam!'' Miss Lahore
said, assuming an Indifferent air, but
blushing slightly, land upon what do
you wish to consult me?"
Upon several subjects, my dear Miss
Laborre," answered Mr.. Askam, rising
from his chair and seating himself be-
side her on the sofa. First, | should
like to know whether you consider it
is possible for two people to live COM
eortably on $500 a year"
ooh, yes, indeed, Mr.. Askam,' Miss
Lahore replied, quickly. eff two peo-
enough"
81 am indeed delighted to hear you
say so," said Mr.. Aslxam fervently.
Secondly, do you think that you-that
your mother and you, after living here
together SO long, could bear to be sep
arated?"
1T wouldn't be as though we really
were separated, living in the same city,
you know, Mr.. Askam," returned Miss
Lahore, thoughtfully. Eyes, am sure
neither of us would mind it so very
much"
'That's brave young lady, cordial
ly responded Mr. Askam, patting the
back of her hand affectionately, as it
lay in her lap, that's brave girl.
And, thirdly, do you think a man of AZ,
my age, Miss Lahore, too old to get
married-e especially if there is little, if
any, discrepancy in the ges?"
ooh, oh, you insulting thing"
screamed Miss Lahore, springing to
her feet. ''You know am not 49,
Certainly, my DEAR" responded the
astonished Mr.. Askam, mildly, "cer-
tainly, but your mother must be nearly
as old as I am
''You have been speaking of my
mother?' demanded Miss Lahore,
tragically.
"Of course" id Mr.. Askam, looking
bewildered, Il thought it only fair, as
you are the bread winner, to consult
you first. Why, who do you think l

Thpjr Last Drunk,

John Davis, one of the largest cider
makers in Indiana, recently killed thir-
teen coons under very peculiar circum-
stances. Mr.. Davis cider mill is built
of wood and stands away from his
house. He was awakened during the
night by a noise in the mill and upon
investigation found that thirteen coons
we're on the inside, drinking cider. He
fastened the door and locked them in
and went to bed. When he got up the
next morning he took the coon dog and
several hands and began the killing
He found the coons drunk and under
going all stages OF jags. The scene was
a most peculiar one. They had rolled
the barrels over, which had been left
open to allow the cider to work. They
had then drank themselves full of hard
cider.

and figured OUT what the ely .,ight
expect in the way of revenue from the
water connections now made. He
found 1t to be enough TO pay twothirds
of the hydrant rem ais of the city or to
be exact as near as possible, $50, IA.
TINS figure is banking nothing on What
is expected from further connexions,
nor from the sprinkling to be done next
summer. He figured THAT the sprink
ling ought to net at least $4,000, which
would bring the revenue fram the sys
tenn within very few dollars OF what
it has cost the CITY, or rather Of what
the city has to pay each year for the
plant. Of course, connections IRE al

Oninions on Trust.

It is much harder to examine and
Judge than to take up opinions on trust;
and therefore the far greatest part of
the world borrow from others those
which they entertain concerning all the
affairs Of life and death. Hence it pro-
ceeds that men are so unanimously
eager in the pursuit of things, which,
far from having any inherent real good,
are vanished DER with a specious and
deceitful gloss, and contain nothing
answerable to their appearance. Hence
it proceeds on the other hand, that, in
those things which are called evils,
there is nothing so hard and terrible as
the general cry of the world thr eatens.
Thus the multitude has ordained. But
the greatest part of their ordinances are
abrogated by the wise. Bolingbroke.
