The more people agree with us the more
use we generally have for their opinions.
Some women seem to think they can in
fluence n man i'll about the same way they
shoe chickens.
AS soon as "a girl gets married all the
other women watch to see how soon she
will begin tn age
When girl has been told that she has Il
spiritual face, she begins to try to put on
a dreamy, rapt expression.
A woman never feels the real joy of
shopping till she has mussod another wom-
ans hair at bargain counter.
A girl will give a man silver flask
with monogram on it for u Christmas
present and then get mad if he uses it,
Some people want to go to heaven in "a
private Car.
When a man says he would die for a
woman, he generally isn't very heavily in
sured.
Most men would rather go to Cuba and
fight for the insurgents than get up and
kindle the furnace.
Some women can hurt their husbands a
good deal more by keeping quiet than by
talking.
When a man takes woman to pathetic
play, he always tries to look hard and I'M
concerned at the most touching parts.
1t may have been the woman that tempt

TIE DOUBLE BASS.

Behold him there in the orchestra,
That chap with the jumbo fiddle
Though placid now is his vertebra
As u cake on an ice cold griddle,
There will come time when his spinal cord
Will break Mt the temperate zone,
And you II wonder how the man can afford
Such Il liberal slack of bone.
just take him in. What frigid thing
He seems in quiet pose,
Like the center pole in a circus ring
Or "a scarecrow waiting for crowsi
Like marble bust or tufa crust
Stucl; up in solemn place
Is the chap that soon will his jug lar thrust
Ger the wing of the double bass.
Ha, ha! The maestro's baton taps,
There's stir in the broadcloth scam,
The hinge Of the spinal column snaps
And crockett the elbow beaml
Anon there glides a giant bow
Der the fddle's big abdomen,
And the overture, in its easy flow,
Seems only pleasant omen.
But mark There's an obligato called
With an accelerando squirt
And the way that bridge of size is mauled
Imperils the old mans shirt
For he dives down over the bulging breast
OF his ten foot violin
And saws and saws at the tough old chest
Till you'd think he'd cave 10 IN.
Then no wags his bow with jerk and a
squeak
Through n rising agitato,
And the off hand seats up the wire bound
peak
Like bee stunG Thomas cat o.
The ague tackles his every limb,
And seams give way in his jacket,
And-well, if you d live TO note his vim
AT the grand Inales racket,
You'd say, as you saw his brisk coattails
In metcoric spatter
And his whole anatomy whiz like fails
In an old time thrashing pattor,
"Thcra isn't man in the world, 1 vow,
Or in t'othor orbs of space
That earns his bread by the sweat of his brow
Like the man of the double bass.

Holy week is always outwardly observed
in society, but 1t is no secret to those on the
inside that there is more weeping, wall ing
and crashing of teeth during that week
among society women than In any other
single week of the year. This tribulation
is not, however, on account of their own
sins-at least none of them would acknowl-
edge it was-but of the sins of omission and
commission of the unfortunate creatures
who have been entrusted with the task of
preparing my lady's spring wardrobe. Many
women who are credited by their masculine
friends with being promising candidates for
saints robes are considered by their dress
makers to be quite other kind of crea-
lures We have read OF once veteran dress
maker saying that if she were man she
would never marry a woman until she had
an opportunity to hear, unseen, her CONVEX
sation with her dress maker when she went
to try on a dress for the last time. But there
are two sides. Perhaps the men would not
fare any better II their sweethearts could
hear their remarks to those who work for
them when things do not go exactly to suit
them. In fact, angels are almighty scarce
upon this mundane sphere, either in trousers
or gowns.

THE GLAD COMING OF EASTER.

OF all the days in the calendar, none comes
to US with sweeter and more precious memo.
ries than Easter-queen of religious festi-
vals--the day upon which our Savior rose
from the dead and in his own blessed person
proclaimed the doctrine Of eternal life. Be
fore Christ came TO earth the belief in the
resurrection of the body was only vague
dream 10 the minds OF the myriads peopling
the world; but when he assumed the form
Of man, and after dying like the rest of NOR
ta.s and lying in the grave for three days
came forth on Easter morning victor over
death, it became firmly fixed in the Christian
creed, telling Of day To come when all who
are in their graves will rise again at His i'm.
perial summons.
But aside from its sacred teachings, Easter
is day of joy and gladness. 1t comes TO
US in the bright, fragrant spring time, when
nature begins to put ON her fairest garments
Winters gloom is over, its icy touch no
longer chilis the ground, and the oder OF
early flowers fills the air; and just at this
time festive youths bedeck themselves in
bran new suits, and dainty bonnets garnish
comely heads. and little boys, imbued with
gain, go about with pockets full of many.
colored eggs to take their first lessons in the
enticing game of chance. In fact. it is a
day of general brightness aud rejoicing, and
as the lily blooms upon the altar and fair
flowers decorate the graves of loved ones
and the social board. the heart is made to
feel the universal joy that once year per-
vades the Christian world when the won
drous story of its risen Lord is told to NOR,
tai ears.
And Easter has its lessons too, full of in
terest and advantage, If we will hear and
heed them. And chief among them all is
the earnest appeal for self-sacrifice, the halt
1. calls upon narrow minded selfishness, and
the plea it enters for charity and love to
men 10 their battle with the world. In q
hundred unobtrusive ways the burdens
which others carry may be lightened. This
may be done with but little personal sacri-
flee, but the amount Of good that follows
such actions is beyond compute. There are
neglected duties due from man to man,
which if more generally recognized would
remove much of the suffering that now
clouds the lives of poor humanity. and look
ing back at Calvary. we may learn the grand
Lesson that no sacrifice is too great, il by
making it we promote the happiness of our
Frllow.man.
Truly there is q lesson to be learned
in the glorious Easter season-a living,
loving lessoni No monuments can en-
dure, though they may be built upon
foundations more secure than granite, in
metal more lasting than brass. Babylon
has persisted. Nineveh is no more. Beauty
fades faster than the sun CLEAN upon an
April landscape, fame is shattered by the
historians research, eanvases rot, frescoes
fade, mosaics fall TO bits, the noblest edifices
must crumble, totter and fall-every work
III man succumbs TO inevitable decay-but

.eIipgs of our Lord upon the cross lives

CHAMP OLARKES PROPHECY.

In his speech In the House OF Representa-.
tives on the tariff bill, the Hon. Champ
Clarke, of Missouri, thus addressed the Re-
publican members. He said "You will be
brought TO your senses when the people
again get a shot at you In the year of our
Lord and Master 1898.
"Then you will be in the condition of the
man out of whom the devil was cast, and
after his soul was swept and garnished the
devil returned, bringing with him seven
other devils. The Bible says that the last
state Of that man was worse than the first.
"By the eye Of faith, can see million
bicyclers, with pneumatic tires, riding down
protection liars because you are putting up
the price Of bicycles So per cent.
"The women of the land-God bless EN-
will make their husbands, sons, brothers and
sweethearts vote against you, because under
the Dingley bill they can have only one
dress where they had two as it IS.
"Seven million farmers will dig you up
with their hoes, pillow you up with their
plows, beat you with their mauls, hackle
you with their harrows, hammer you with
their sledges, rake you with their curry
combs, pulverize you with their disks, cut
you down with their axes, split you TO pieces
with their hoes, ride you on their barbed-
wire fences, toss you with their pitchforks,
smite you with their piledrivers, grind you
through their sausage mills, NOV you down
with their reapers, bind you up in great
bundles, run you through their thrashing
machines aud scatter you as worthless chat,
because you are raising the price of all farm
ing implements by As per cent.
"Every patient forced to endure surgical
operation will loath you, because you have
increased the tax on anaesthetics. Every
lover OF learning will detest you, because
you have laid prohibitive tariff on books,
thereby shutting the gates Of knowledge 30
far as was in your power. Every child that
dies of diphtheria will pass away pronounc-
ing on you its lasting curse, because you
have put up the price OF antitoxin. You are
arraying against you every right thinking
