So the Vi11ager Thought, and He
Knew the Boy.
When he was fifty he returned to his
native town, "just to SEQ how the old
place looked He found it unchanged.
The old store where, as a lad, he had
clerked it, and sold calicoes and gro
ceries to the old farmers, was just the
same. He contrasted the sleepy old
place with himself, and felt a glow Of
satisfaction when he thought how
much those thirty years had done for
him. 'They ought to be proud of me-"
he said to himself.
Presently he met one of the old in
habitants.
"WalI, I declare, is it really you,
Hank?" said the old man, incredulous-
ly. We've heerd you've been prosper
in fust rate since you went West.
They've made you a railroad president,
or sunthin O that sort, amt they?
heerd so, but l couldn't believe it. It's
RELY true, is it? Wall, all I've got to
say is, they must be purity hard up for
railroad presidents out there"
He took the next train for the West.

Gently pinned on his breast. In the
course of hostilities with the tribes
men on the northwestern frontier, a
brother private named Matthews fell
to the ground with a bullet in his
shoulder. The m~ountaineers were
pressing so hardly at the time that no
one could attend to the wounded SOL
der at the moment. By-and-by the
foe was beaten back, and Purvis and
his mates picked up the poor fellow.
Just then the hillsmen began firing
again upon the little group, and Mat

of every obstacle Purvis and his COM

unconscious, within the British lines,

Can BE Read by the Lines About Her

A certain philosopher declares that a
woman is known by her mouth. Not
by the words that issue therefrom, but
by the shape and color of the lips, and
the lines and dimples that gather about
this important feature. He is sup

mists, who all endeavor to impress US

so praised in song and story, was ever

says Woman's Life, it is consoling to
those whose mouths are not in accord
ance with the lines Of beauty laid down
by the poets to be told that a wide,
straight mouth, with strong, white
teeth" denotes the woman of superior
intelligence, goodness of heart, strength
of mind, and a thousand and one other
sterling qualities which we all like to
think we possess. 1t is the fashion
at present to hold the lips very slight
ly apart. This is supposed to give that
innocent, w~istful, wonderful expression
which was the peculiar properties OF
the heroines of old-fashioned novels
but which bicycle riding and kindred
modern amusements have caused tc

DEAD BEATS
That Make Use of Hotels for Their
Private Business.


Private Business.
"You would be surprised" said a
hotel clerk the other night, "to know
how many schemers, fakirs, small pro-
motors and curbstone brokers use our
corridors and reading rooms as offices.
They make all their appointments here,
and when a prospective victim turns
up they head him into a quiet corner
and transact their business as COM
fortably as they could in a suite in an
office block. There's an old chap by
the door who has been using the house
as his own for several years, and to my
certain knowledge he has never spent
a penny under it's roof. He has sew
eral agencies and patent rights, and
now and then he succeeds in getting a
farmer on the string. The countryman
supposes, of course, that he lives here,
and is duly impressed by his surround
ings. The old fellow takes him into
the writing room, and if it isn't quiet
enough there he doesn't hesitate to ad-
Journ to n of the parlors. That's no
unusual case, either. During the fore

promoters actually took possession Of
a private parlor with a couple of eli

guests until they could conclude their
conference Formerly such g%ratuitous
tenants had their mail addressed to the
house, and called for it at all hours Of
the day and night, but we thought that
was carrying the joke a bit too far,
and put a stop to it. 1t may be said
without the slightets exaggeration that
there are between thirty and forty men
in New Orleans who make their Offices
regularly in the different hotels, and as
far as know, not one of them has ever
been a guest. They are tolerated be-
cause we don't want the reputation of
being mean, and don't care to take
chances on offending any Of their
friends, who might be bona fde pa

Anybody can sell clothing cheaper for
cash than he can for credit. No bad
debts, no disputed accounts, no loss of
interest on book accounts, no wear and
tear on peace of mind, no walking the
floor at night wondering where the
money to pay maturing bills is to come
from. On the contrary the cash man
is cheerful, feels liberal, and is always
ready to give his customers good bar
gain. This is the way The Hubs looks
at the matter.
