Nominal Expense.

To make pretty and cheap frame for
photographs, procure sheet of stout
cardboard, and from this cut an oval
frame the size desired. Buy some
poppyheads from the chemist; tho
price varies according to size, but good
ones may be had at three for five cents.
With sharp, strong knife cut off
cleanly the grooved circular disks at

He La Tnmed Now.

About two years ago fairly well-known
young man of this town who, in the days OF
his bacheorhood, was addicted to the habit
of conversing through his head-covering
was delivering himself oracularly on the sub
ject of the duties of paternity. "a man
who'll wheel baby carriage" he perforated,
loftily, is triple-plated, quadrupleexpan-

was observed-all of the customary ear

No Cause for Complaint.

During a week spent under canvas
with the volunteers at Aldershot we
had for a messmate a son of the
Green Isle. Now, the liquid we had
supplied to us for tea was a mystery;
not one could name it accurately as
tea, coffee or cocoa, and few could
swallow it. The Irishman, who had
brought with him a good supply of
rum, added "a liberal allowance of the
same to aid him to drink his 'tay."
When the officer of che day came
round to make the usual inquiry:
ANY complaints, men?' the Irish
man, with a wink to the remainder of
us. held out his pot to the officer with:
"Will yer honor plaze taste and tell
us if it's tay or what?" The officer, a
young lieutenant, carefully raised the
pot to his lips, but no sooner tasted
it (or smelt iD than, taking a deep
breath, he drained the contents, and
handed back the empty pot with the
remark: Il cannot say it was tea,
my man; but if that's the stuff the
commissariat is supplying to you, 1

In ,pcrsuading him to seek the Republic

Mr.. Honecker is holding back on ac-
count OF his age. he having just attain
cd his majority.
In connection with this. the writer
desires to state that Mr.. Honeckcr was
old enough to volunteer and be taken
to Cuba by Uncle Sam. as an able
bodied immune to shoot Spanlards.
Now, II he fills the legal requirement
us to age, IL he is a good, clean man and
competent, he surely should not nor
should any body else think he is too
young to serve as our city clerk.
Mr.. Honecker graduated sew
eral. years ago from our public
schools, and since his return from Cuba,
has been doing newspaper work. at
which he Is very apt. From this, and
by what the writer has seen personally
OF the young man. from the opinion OF
his ability gained to q certain extent by
reading his interesting letters to the
Intelligencer during his military service
In Cuba. he is not too young to fill any
position within the clty's SLIT.
The writer voices the wish of many
Republicans that he will come before
