NOT THE RIGHT T
The Soldiers Sweetheart suffers he
cause of the Mistake of
His Mother.

Many a hearts wall has come back
from Chickamauga, and among the
walls was n 10 somebody's doting
mother. He had often left her before,
but not under the same circumstances.
He sent a postal back to his mother
from every station, also one to his
sweetheart. When he got settled
enough, he "harnessed up q ~raccoon."
so the letter went, and on its bristly
back scratched a letter to his mother,
also n TO his sweetheart-but Just as
soon as the letter came the happy girl
donned her sailor hat and, mounting
her wheel, spun over TO mothers. She
rushed breathlessly into the old lady's
arms and waved the letter. A trife
milder, but with warmth, the mother
said she had one, too. Sitting side by
side the dear girl read every line Of the
love letter, from the part where he had
kissed her good-by to a glowing de-
scription Of the journey and Of the dear
old Goober state, where the balmy air
and under starry skies he dreamed of
her.
Mother, not TO be outdone, waddled
into the next room, and waddled back
again with her letter from her son. She
adjusted her glasses, and began:
Dearest Mother: 1 should have
written sooner, but the snow is knee
deep, and not having brought sufficient
clothing along"
What" calculated the maid, her eyes
sticking out.
Mother was thinking of her boy, and
not the letter, so mechanically kepton:
And having just recovered from a
weeks serious illness"
"Bo-hool boo-hool" came from be.
hind the handkerchief on the sofa.
Stolidly mother turned the page and
read:
Il knew 1 couldn't reach the station
10 mail you this letter. Apologize to
Julia for me, and send me my winter
socks"
smothered groans were coming from
the sofa now. Her name wasn'tJulia,
Mother looked languidly, unconcern-
eddy over her glasses, and let the letter
fall, saying: why, child, what's the
matter?"
The matterP" blubbered she. Hes
been sick-three feet of snow-no
elothes-and Julia, Julia, too"
With that she snatched the letter
from the astonished old lady, and, open
ing 1t, read:
WATERFOWL, $. D., December %, 1897
The old lady had gotten the wrong
letter, that was all.-Washington Post.

s%T0GGLEBY'S FORTUNE.
Picked Out of n Box for Him, Printed
On n Piece of Paper, by a
Little Green Bird.

Il had had my fortune told once by
the little green bird" said Mr.. stoggle-
by, but it was so long ago that | had
forgotten what 1t said, and / think we
like TO repeat these experiences any
way; so when | saw a man in the street
with this sort Of fortune-telling outfit
the other day I thought I'd try my luck
again.
1t was the regulation thing, q box
supported upon a light portable fold
ing stand placed at the edge Of the side
walk. The cover Of the box was opened
back and a little green paroquet
perehed upon its upper edge. The box
was filled with little folded papers in
groups Of different colors, red and blue,
and SO on. up close together, a great
number OF them, but not SO closely
packed but what single papers could be
picked out without difficulty. The pro-
prietor, a swarthy-faced, smiling, good
natured foreigner, who spoke no Eng
fish, stood near, holding a slender little
rod like a conductors baton. Two or
three children, silent but interested
lookerb-on, were standing around.
"On the inner face Of the upturned
lid OF the box was an inscription that
said something about letting the bird
pick out your lucky planet, or some
thing like that, | don't remember inst
what, and more. As / approached and
Indicated my desire the proprietor held
out to the little bird a rod upon which
the bird stepped grayely. Lowering It
gently to the level Of the long row Of
folded papers In the front Of the box,
the birds owner placed it's beak in
proximity to the papers at about the
center OF the row; the papers there
were red. The little bird nipped one
and lifted IL out and handed il TO the
man. who handed it to me; w~hereupon
i handed him five cents.
