Kinnafra.s Err.tic Flight.

Herbert Kinnaird, one of the clev-
crest young fellows in town, is chief
cook and bottle washer in J. A. Beaz-
ley's furniture store. He is first
class clerk, but there are many tricks
of the trade he has yet to learn. On
Saturday Mr.. Beazley received a
dozen wire mattresses, which were
mashed down to thickness of about
eighteen inches and tied with ropA
Not knowing of the great force of
the springs, Herbert got upon the
bundle on his hands and knees and
began cutting the ropes. All went
we'll until the knife severed the last
rope, when Herbert quickly left the
earth and started on a sudden jour-
ney to what he supposed was the bet
ter land. After reaching height ten
or twelve feet his course changed. and
the downward flight was begun. In
the latter he cut q dash through a
maple shade tree, knocking the back
off u dresser, broke three chairs sit

reached terra frma bearing some dozen
cuts and scratches. The mattresses.

Long Skirts Are Fashionable.

Long skirts in the street, longer
skirts in the house, and it pleases
every one but the woman OF economi-
cal mind. There is sweep to the
train of extra length whi,h gives a
pleasant sensation to woman of
presence; she likes the feeling OF the
swing of the skirts. The dressmaker
can get better effects with the long
skirt; it shows up the material to bet
ter advantage, and as it takes moro of
it, that is satisfaction to manufac-
turers and merchants. But that is
not so agreeable to the woman who
has to count the dollars. A long
train requires less trimming, if any
thing, than a shorter one, for it has a
certain dignity of its own in rich
material, and is apt to lose by being
trimmed.

"That's anothe I of them ijjit yarns, -
said the British skipper to the mate,
as his privateering fork made prize
of the last piece of bread on the plate.
'These Yankee papers stretch out
stuff of that kind like the ship chan
dler does his bill. They miss stays
half the time, and do no know what
they are talking aoout." And he
threw the paper to one side.
"What blood and thunder yarn is
it this time?' asked the mate, glanc

''Its nothing less than a red hot
whopper. It's about them Dutchmen
who are fitting out an Arctic trip to be

the hull is to be strengthened in and
out to fight the ice, it says that the
