given the introduce by the brave
Heiney Gruber, who makes the pretzel
at the place of the bakeshop. l am
all the time gliding the frame of the
pictures in my store. Yes. Heiney
bring to me the fair Norah, an say
that she wish to have me to make the
frame of the picture of her father, the
grand M'sieu' Patrick Dempsey.
Then it is that l have ask Ma'mselle
Norah that l may call and make my
devoirs. An she make the smile Of
sweetness and say to me like this:
Sure thing"
So it is that am often making the
call at the house of the Dempsey's.
An bye-an'-bye, the fair Norah she
begin to make me the frs name. An
her papa, he cannot like my frs name
In the French. You see, M'sieu', the

not like the French, nor car he make
the pronouncing as it shall be, so he
call me Perry"
Mon Dieu, they are awful, these

So it come that l have the track o.
the inside of the othair adorers of the

1t is thus, Msieu'. 1 take the charm
ing Norah to the chowder party of her
fathers club an to the baseball game
an to the %hossracing an to the opera.
But not so much to the opera as to the
drama. For Norah, she say that she
cannot make to like the singing of the
prime dome. No. No. 1t is not that
she have not the divine love of the
art, but she say that the dagoes get
too fresh nowadays anyway, an 1t is
not to the good to give them the en-
enlargement by spending the money
90 get them u sing. Mais, ~certaine-

M'sieu', an make the speech with the
grace of only the true gentleman. All,
you should have seen me, M'sieu'.
When l pr'pose it is as the picture

not for the garments, that is. Yes.
An Norah, she make the blush-oh.

So l make the call upon M'sieu'
Patrick Dempsey at the Office of him
self, where he sell the street paving.
An l tell to him of my great love that
I have for Norah, an he laugh at me.
Mon Dieu! He laugh the bitter laugh

The farmers of Central New Jersey
have done well out of the potato crop
this year. Here are some instances:
Wilson Clayton, a Monmouth county
grower, got 2,072 barrels from 20
acres, and he sold these for more than
$4,000. Benjamin Hays got 100 barrels
of potatoes to the acre and received
more than $4,000 for his crop. Robin
son brothers sold their crop early in
the season, when the price was high.
and got about $1,000 for it. Bank
men say that more notes have been
paid off this year by the farmers than
ever before.

Might Have Been Worse.

While things were humming in the
ballet-room of the New York Metro
politan Opera House one day last week
a section of the ballet was called to the
fore to rehearse an Indian" ballet.
There was nothing in the girls cos
tunes to indicate the character of the
dance, but as they came whooping and
gyrating down the stage in front Of
Albertieri with their tin tomahawks,
some one looking on remarked:
What? You got a Carrie Nation bal

played on her poor oil hungry daddy.
But are there any % of thin Frinch

So you see, M'sieu', it Is true that
the man of gallantry will fin no OBJ

he have the grand passion in the heart
of him. An it is also true that the
way to the heart Of the p'pa-in-law is

The chance for young men to en-
gage in trade in Alaska are still album
dant. The dairyman at Juneau is get
ting rich. The gardener made $4,000
this season from a little two-acre
patch of ground, despite the fact that
there a great number of vegetables
that will not thrive in that locality.
Tomatoes will not mature. The vines
thrive well, but will not produce fruit.
Cabbages grow until they become i'm
mense in size, but the heads will not
get hard. Potatoes grow out of the
ground and are not palatable. Corn,
squash, beans and cucumbers will not
grow on account of the excessive
moisture and cool nights. Nearly
everything else in the way of vegeta-
bles can be produced in large q%uanti-
ties.

The great scarcity of hay in Kan

of great value as a food for cattle.
Russian thistles are gathered and
stacked like hay for winter feeding
and, despite the fact hat they have
millions of fine spines, each Of which
is as sharp as the point of a needle.
Cattlemen in the section where they
flourish say that when damp, cattle
eat them readily, and get a good deal

A certain lodge man in this state
attended Friday night dance and
certainly had grand time. II
seems that while leaning against
the railing erected to guard the
musicians and their stands the
man tore large hole in his trous

his wife, who at once escorted him
to the ladies' dressing room, which
was unoccupied at this moment.
The tear was SO bad his wife, who
had found a neddle and thread,
made him take his trousers off
While the man was standing there
the music stopped and there was a
rustic OF skirts at the door of the
dressing room. He app. aled to
his wife, who showed him to door
