K. Cooper. The wedding day had been
set for the early spring. and the bride

pairing he trousseau, but the haste with
which the marriage was accomplished
was calculated to take away the breath
Of those who now feel that they have
cause to be aggrieved at missing the fes-
tivities which usually attend the wedding
of bellies. The reason Of this sudden de-
termination was that the groom's mother,
Mrs. A. Deane Cooper, has gone to make
a tour of Japan, having sailed last Sat
urday from san Francisco on the China,
and desires TO have them join he'd and
spend their honeymoon in travelling with
q party Of friends over the F1owery

however. refused to be one Of the party,
pleading that her trousseau had not been
brought such persuasion TO, bear that she
yielded and consented to sail from san

8 o'clock. There were no attendants and

According to reports, strenuous Ell
forts are to be made to suppress gam
bling frauds on the ocean steamers. It
is said to have attained ~disgraceful
proportions. The victims are many,
and the card-sharpers are bold and de-
FAINT. This recalls a story which ola
Capt. Judkins, of the Cunard line-in
his day the most famous of Atlantic
captains-used to tell. There were
stringent rules against gambling on the
C~unarders, but there was another COM
pany that was most lenient in h mat
ter.
One day a hot game was in progress
on one of the boats OF the latter line.
There were several lookers-on, among
them the ships captain, who a come
in for a moment. Another bystander
noticed that one Of the players, while
dealing, dealt himself cards from the
bottom of the pack and fortified him-
self for four aces. Shocked at the
fraud, the bystander looked at the cap
tain; but the captain ave no sign OF.
having seer the trick. Pulling him
away from the table, the b~ystander
said:
Ibid you see that, captain?"
"See what?" was the retort.
"Why. that fellow dealt himself four
acesi"

to serve a tart of the rhubarb variety,

a more stylish affair than its predeces-
sor, having loops and ends edged with
diamond or pearl ferrets hanging from
the left wrist, while a bizarre ornament
clasps the band itself close round the
arm. Nothing shows off a white hand
better than black velvet, and the same
may be said of the black velvet neck
band, which is also in favor, studded
with jeweled ornaments or art nou-
veau lowers, says the Pittsburg Post.
French women rarely appear decollete
without some form of a band around
the throat, usually a tucked piece OF
tulle or velvet the same shade as the

Cucumber Salad.

Peel three cucumbers, cut them
l~engthwise, scoop out the centers, leav-
ing them about half an inch thick.
Place these boats in ice water. Reject
most of the seeds from the remainder
of the cucumbers and mix with water
cress, celery dice, chopped chives and
a few capers. Add a white mayonnaise
to the mixture and fill the boats,
which have been wiped dry; put one
on each plate and sprinkle with
minced parsley. White mayonnaise is
made with lemon juice instead of
vinegar, and then before being used is
made very delicate by having a table
spoonful or so of whipped cream added
to it.

LAY1NG THE TABLE.

When setting a table for a meal,
whether it is to be plain or elaborate,
lay the knives forks and spoons in the
order required by the courses. Set
the first ten-inch plate, called the SER
vice plate, one fork at the left hand.
For a dinner which is to include, say,
oysters, consomme, meat, salad and
dessert, lay an oyster fork farthest
from the plate, then a soup spoon,
knife, fork and coffee spoon. If the
dessert is a sherbet or jelly, lay each
one on the plate on which the last
course is served.-Good Housekeeping.

the advertisement might be accompa-
MED by the portrait of the lady who
replied.
A collateral result of this notice was
that two or three of the best photo
graphic artists of the city had more
work on their hands than they
could attend to. The direct
result was sixty-five letters,
with as many fair maidenly coun-
tenances as would fill a good-slzed al
bum. The answers were in some eases
accompanied by parental certificate,
setting forth in touching language the
charms and virtues of the daughters.
The young man replied to each OF
his correspondents that, before coming
to a final decision, a personal view
would be Of advantage. To each of the
ladies. without the knowledge of the
others, he sent a ticket for an orches-
ira stall in the. Scala Theater, an
nouncing that he himself would be IN
a particular box, the number and sit
uation of which he stated.
A few evenings later the play-going
public of Milan were perplexed to ex-
plain the appearance of n of the
rows of stalls in that immense build
ing. A long line of beauties in toll
cites of extreme elegance, unbroken by
a single black coat, was observed.
Furtively, and with t%repidation, did
each damsel from time to time raise
her opera glass to hat box--the cyno-
sure of many bright eyes-in which
the graceful youth reposed.
Suspiciously, and with darkened
brow, did each damsel turn to the long
file of her neighbors, and wonder at
the magnetism which drew each glass
to the one central spot. By and by the
audience, to whom some hint of the
secret had leaked out, began to give
audible signs that they enjoyed the
joke. The sporadic laughter of the
theater increased the confusion of the
young ladies,and the c%ontagion of fun
turned the sporadic mirth into a gen
eral roa
At this point our informant drops
a veil over the scene.

THE BUSY LITTLE STORE
On the Busy Corner-It Is Growing
In Popular Favor Right Along.

August 10, 1893, Mr.. J. C. Haskell
embarked in business in Baxter
Springs on his own hook. He had
a wide acquaintance with the peo-
pie of this section, and believed
that with that, together with his
experience and ability, he could
make a success of the dry goods
business and it's attachments. 'Ac-
cordingly he hied himself to the
markets, where he bought a neat
stock of goods.
The store was opened to the pub.
lie on the date mentioned, and the
trade was even larger and more
satisfactory at the start than Mr..
Haskell expected.
The buying public early showed
it's appreciation of MIR. Haskett's
methods of doing business, and
continues TO show it by continued
patronage. BY strict attention to
business and fairness and integrity
Mr.. Haskell has won for his store
the cognomen of 1.-THE Busy Cor
ner." The business this year SHOVE
a large increase over last year and
the trade is steadily increasing
Starting with a comparatively
small stock, Mr.. Haskell has KEEP,
adding to it, until today he has q
stock that any merchant in a city
twice the size of Baxter would bs
proud of. His line EN- braces every
thing in the staple and fancy dry
goods line, together with boots
shoes, hats, caps, clothing and fur
nishings, and he is now figuring
on putting in a big line of holiday
goods, embrasing toys and thu
latest novelties.
The business at 1.-THE Busy Cor
uer" is done on a cash basis. Mr.
Haskell sells his goods for colo
cash, believing that the best way
aud every person entering thu
store, whether customer or visitor
is treated with marked courtesy
aud shown careful attention.
He does not buy more goods thar
is necessary, but keeps his stocl
fresh with the newest ideas anc
latest designs in what pertains te
his lines.
