A Pathetic Incident.

"Give me chance!"
1t is in a gaudy saloon on that pic
turesque thoroughfare, the Bowery.
The hour is late, but lavish combin-
alton of mirrors and electric lights
fills the place with dazzling radiance.
Give me a chance!"
AS the clear feminine tones ring
through the smoke-laden air the
tough-looking customers ranged in
front of the bar temporarily withdraw
their attention from the beverages
they are consuming, and with vul-
gar curiosity turn their unsteady gaze
in the direction from which the voice
proceeds.
The speaker flushes painfully at
finding herself the target for so many
bleary eyes. She is little more than
a child in years, in spite of the pinch
ed and prematurely old expression Of
her face. But with an effort she re-
strains her impulse to fly from their
tnsolent scrutiny, and with a CULVER
Ing lip once more repeats her appeal
to the man behind the bar:
please give me chance!"
Jaw, go chase yerself!" is the bru-
tai retort of the individual addressed.

No one knows, but everyone guesses,
where the latest hat for out-of door
wear which will be all the rage this
summer, comes from. 1t is tie genu-
inc cowboy" hat which has come
East, and no doubt Buffalo Bill and
his cowboys were the ones who gave
the idea. The very SWEETEST girls this
summer will wear these large brown
soft felt hats, which can be pulled
down we'll over the eyes, to protect
them from the sun when playing golf
tennis, or croquet, or riding wheel.
A very well dressed girl was seen on
her bicycle the other day on her way
home from a long country spin. The
sun had set, SO she bad pushed the
brim of her cowboy" hat back, up
from her face, and it locked not only
very comfortable but picturesque and
becoming, much more so than the Tam
o'Sbanters and polo caps which have
been affected by devotees of the wheel

OBJECTIONABLE OFFENCE.

Tale of the Klondike and of
Things More Precious Than Gold.
"WW-What DIDO you want?"
The speaker is Mr.. John Doom, the
Klondike coal merchant, and his in
Quiry is addressed to the stern-faced
man at his bedside who has just
awakened him from pleasant dream,
Il want you!" is the blunt reply.
And you'd better hustle into yer cloth
es, or my friends, who are waitin' out
side will get inpatient"
There is something in the tone of the
stranger, to say nothing of the sugges-
tive way in which he handles his six
shooter-that discourages further ques-
tioning. So as quickly as his shaken
nerves will allow the coal merchant
dresses himself and follows the visitor
downstairs. When he energies into
the street, his fears are redoubled. By
the faint gray light of the dawn he
perceives that large crowd has sur
rounded his house. And to judge from
the fierce yells with which they greet
ulS dppcdTduCe, lHelT eIIduu 10 uOI ca
actly peaceable one.
But the vender of black diamonds
has little time for speculation In the
twinkling of an eye he is seized, tightly
bound and dragged to nearby tree.
Then, as the ringleader comes forward
with a rope, the shuddering captive
recognizes him as customer of the
| daJ before
Mercy" he implores. But the
leaders only reply is 2, snarl of rage.
In desperation the terrified man APP
peals to the crowd
Gentlemen he cries, the tears roll
ing down his cheeks, surely you amt
a-goin' to take Teller citizens life
without givin' him chance TO say a
| word fer hisself. Ny weights has al

they happen TO be short-which truly
hope they ain't-why, it's no fault Of

BABVs SMOOTH, FAIR SKIN

Baby Broke out with Sorofula Sores.
"At the age of two months, my baby
began to have sores break out on hisright
cheek. We used all the external APP
plications that we could think or hear of,
to no avail. The sores spread all over one
side OF his face. We consulted physi-
clan and tried his medicine, and in week
the sore was gone. But to my surprise in
two weeks more another scrofulous look
ing sore appeared on baby's arm. 1t
grew worse and worse, and when he was
three months old, began giving him
Hoods Sarsaparilla. also took Hoods
Sarsaparilla, and before the first bottle
was finished, the sores were well and have
never returned. He is now four years old,
but he has never had any sign OF those
scrofulous sores since he was cured by
Hoods Sarsaparilla, for which feel very
grateful. My boy owes his good health
and smooth, fair skin to this great med
icine." MRS. s. S. WRoTEN, Farming
