The Girl Got The Roses.

Standing in florists store, vainly
striving to come to some adjustment
between capital and roses, one of Gin
cinnati's bellies glanced out of the
window to see hack dashing up the
street.
A young man looked out of the
carriage door, the coachman reined in
his horses, and two country fellows
jumped out, and rushed into the store,
one exclaiming to the clerk:
II want to give you carte blanche
order for some flowers"
The clerk looked at him and con-
tinued talking to the young woman.
II am in a deperate hurry; must
catch train-no time to lose and
will give you carte blanche" the youth
interrupted.
The young woman consented to
wait, and the clerk replied:
What kind would you like?"
''No matter what they are, so they
are handsome-some roses and other
things-something pretty for her to
wear" he answered, as the blood

Romance Of a Wig.

Il tragic ending of comic scene
has resulted in the heroine of the adj
venture being conveyed to the hospital
in very precarious state, while the
hero is securely under lock and key
at the depot of the Forfeiture of Po-
lice in Paris. The whole affair turned
on some silly fun and stupid horseplay
about wig. A young man had been
facinated by the attractions OF girl
few years his junior and had asked
to be permitted to pay his attentions
to her, but she was by no means dis
posed to return the compliment, as
he had become very bald through i'll
ness, and, as the object of his affec-
tions concisely put 1t, she would never
dream of marrying any one with no
hair on his head.
The youth meditated over his dis
comtiture, and then happy thought
flashed upon him. He would repair
the ravages of unkind nature by re-
course to art, and forthwith he1.sended
his way to a hairdresser's shop and
became the delighted possessor of
wig with curls and love-locks and elab-
arate parting in front and behind, which
as he fondly hoped, would produce
the desired impression on the heart
of the obdurate young woman.
Thus adorned, he proceeded that
evening to q restaurant, where she
was dining with some friends, but to
his horror, she not only burst out
laughing when he appeared on the
scene, but presently made a dash at
his wig, which she tore off, revealing
his denuded head to the astonished
gaze of the party. The youth en-
deavored to wrest the wig from her
grasp, and so, finding herself hard
pressed, the fair maiden passed it
over to the other side of the room, and
then, as ignorant of the fact, he still
struggled, she dealt him slap in the
face. a-.
Beside himself with disappointY
and wrath, the young man snatG
knife from the table, and ere the spec
tators of the scene could interfere, he
stabbed the girl in the neck. Cries of
5Gismay now resounded instead of peals
