Kleptonanfa.

To believe French writer, there are no fewer than four thousand women caught every year in stealing during their shopping expeditions, habit eu- phoniously styled kleptomania. The number of titled ladies seized with this strange malady while examining the fashions of Paris, he tells us, is incred- ible. Among the most recent culprits were a Russian duchess, a French countess, an English duchess and the daughter of reigning sovereign. As rule, these distinguished offenders are let off on the payment of round sum for the relief of the poor; when the shoplifter is known to be rich, the sum extracted rises to as much as ten thousand francs. The police authori- ties consent to this sort of conformation.

HAD BEGUN TO PROSPER.
A Periodically Humorous Story Told or B
 Cumberland Mountain Farmer.

Cumberland Mountain Farmer. writer in the Detroit Free Press tells a pathetically humorous story of a friend of his, Jack Negly, Cumber. land farmer. The writer had lent Jack A few dollars, with which to buy pair of steers, and had received from him many visits of apology; for Jack was an honest man, and did not enjoy being in debt.
 He was a renter, and at least every other season he was occupying diff ferent farm. By my advice, he had moved the year before into an entirely new field, dozen miles from his usual haunts, and I had not seen him for several months. When I did see him, at last, it was by accident as business called me into his neighborhood. As I rode past his place he hailed me from the corn-field and came out to the fence.
 Hello" I exclaimed. "Is this your farm?"
 "Yes, and I jist come over to tell you, colonel, that I'll be ready to pay part of that claim uv yourh afore long," ;.
 "You must be doing well?'
 "I think I'm doing fust-rate, and I'm powerful obleeged to you, colonel, fer headin' me this way"
 'I'm always glad to help, if l can."
 q knowed that, colonel, and that's why I come away over here so fer rum home. Hits kinder strange to me, but ez long ez Tn doin' ez we'll ez I am I'm a-goin' to stand hit"
 Are you making any money?"
 Jim's face frightened perceptibly.
 ''No, ain't, colonel" he replied, hope fully; "but l m losin' it slower'n I ever done in my life afore."
 It struck me as rather odd at first, but upon reflection I concluded that Jim might have reason for his hopefulness.
