Being curious to know the import of the
dialogue between the two, / went forward
and learned that the woman had tagged the
tram tor the purpose OF getting on board
and going on to town to sell dozen eggs
She told the conductor, however, that she
had only IL in the basket at that moment,
but that an old blue hen of hers, then on
the nest. was momentarily expected to 'av
the egg necessary to complete the dozen:
that it would be great accommodation if
ne would hold his train until this should
market with fewer than dozen eggs. The
conductor consented, and then our wait be-

Finally, after the lapse Of about 20 min

woman's shanty. A moment later blue

lady, who came running toward the cars.

One evening not long ago st. joseph
young man, who is quite well known in So
clety, started out to call on a Young LADY
WI, VINO lives IN the eastern part of the CITY.
The young man had but recently met the
cnarmer and had never been to see her. He
lld not anticipate any difficulty, however,
IN nnding the young lady's home, as he had
received careful directions from those who
had been there. In due time he arrived in
the nelghborhood in which the young lady
lived. He was undecided as to the exact
mousse he was seeking, but after some hesita-
ton he selected that which he felt positive
was the young lady's place of abode. A

:, Yes, SIR; step in" was the answer, and
the young man was ushered into the parlor.
&c seems that he was too deeply engrossed
with anticipations Of pleasure to follow to
make close scrutiny, else he would have OBJ
served that surroundings were not just what
ne mad reason to expect. After few mo-

clone in 80 while at school; another, three

SO prey on the mind as to lead to serious ply

in this case. AS result of them, her health
was shattered and she has been a constant
sufferer since $780, Her principal trouble
was very painful, and exhibited ali the
symptoms Of ordinary neuralgia, nervous
ness and indigestion. Physicians did her no
good whatever. She was discouraged and
abandoned all hope of getting well. Finally,
however, a certain well known pill was
recommended (Dr. Williams Pink Pills for

them and had not taken them two weeks
