Fishinu That Failed.

She had not been married so long
that she had broken herself Of the
habit Of occasionally fishing for
compliments, and she liked above
all things to hear him say how he
prized her. But this time he was
taken off guard and spoke thought
lessly.
'1t was $50 you gave the minister
who married us, wasn't it" she
asked.

That's good deal Of money,

didn't. Instead he replied, with a
depth Of feeling that was unusual:

Means by Which celestiais Crafty
Their Love Of Noise.

John Chinaman has abundant
means for gratifying his love cs
noise, nor does he fail to use the
means on every conceivable occa-
sion. On his New Years day, for ex-
ample Feb. Is, by the way he al
ways has an extra dose Of music.
In the shops one may often see q
bourgeois company sitting in row,
each with clapper, gong, cymbals
or drum, beating as if for dear life,
with the gravest Of faces. One trav-
eler says this is exercising devils,
and if the devils have ears it ought
to be successful plan.
The same traveller describes the
"band" at mandarins feast at
which he was present. It consisted
Of q gong, two pairs of cymbals and
9 single 'kettledrum, and the clatter5
went on almost without interruption
for three hours. At the theater the
orchestra numbers usually five or!
six performers, all Of whom, says an
attache writing from Peking, play
upon several instruments, which
they take up in turn, according to.
the character Of the music. The
instruments chiefly used are fd-33
dies, lutes, clarinets, flutes, a sort
of mouth organ and large variety
of gongs, drums and cymbals.
Of course one speaks Of fiddle
for simplicitys sake, for a Chinese
fiddle is no more Like a European
fiddle than Chinaman in his pig
tail is like q Londoner in a chimney
pot hat. Even the street hawkers in
China have each his own trade an
nouncement in the shape Of a mu-
sical instrument. Thus one trade
has a thing like a monster jeWsharp,
another has a tiny gong, a third q
drum, a fourth beats two pieces of
bamboo together, and so on. The
beggars, too, use castanets made Of
bamboo. In Canton there is a law,
according to which if a beggar goes
into shop OF a similar place and
sounds his bamboo sticks he cannot
be turned out without having first
secured relief. ef.-Gentleman's Maya

The degree team of Morris lo'ge,
Knights of Pythias has made. three
trips to Hancock recently, and al
though they have been royalty enter
tanned each time, the social part of
the evening on Wednesday evening
of the week &c clipsed all previous good
times. The business of the meeting
consisted in conferring the rank of
Knight on half a dozen candidates,
after which the lodge was invaded
by a host of sheeted and masked
figures. They were welcomed By
Chancellor Commander Fill, the
musicians were called, and the dance
went merrily on, very merrily in fact,
when it was found that one of the
Morris members was unexpectedly
dancing with one of his own sex.
The ladies next prepared and served
substantial refreshments, which were
followed by SOME spicy speeches by
the gentlemen. The Morris guests,
after repeated attempts, finally got
started for home sometime after 10
O'Clock, and all confessed the Han
cock lodge. K. P. was success, and
that the presence of the ladies made
the meeting more then ordinarily en-
iovable.

The following taken from an ex-
change, contains great deal OF
common sense; Who sympathized
with you when your child was sick
Was it T. NJ. Roberts or your home
merchant? Who carried you thru the
winter when you were out of job
and had no money? Was it Mont
gomery Ward & Co., or your home
merchant? When you wanted to
raise money for the church or some
needy neighbor, did you write the
Fair Store. in Chicago, or did you go
to your home merchant? How much
does Siegel, Cooper & Co. give to-
ward keeping up the sidewalks of the
town or paying the minister's salary?
When you were sick, how many
nights did Sears, Roebuck & Co. sit
up with you? When your loved one
was buried. was it your home
merchant that dropped the tear of
sympathy and uttered the cheering
words, or was it Marshall, Field & 20.
of Chicago?
