Once there was a great big Burly who had a Wife about the size of a Grasshopper. Usually she wore a gray Tailor-made that looked as if it would have to be let out if she gained another pound.
 Any one. to look at Jessaline, would have said that she was rather frail and Weakly, while the he-end of the Sketch looked husky enough to pull Dray. It often happens that the heavy-draf- Bachelor picks out a Midge and makes love to her and she is so scared at the size of him that she hasn't got the Nerve to throw him down.
 At any rate the cute and dainty lit tie Jessaline, with a Waist Measure ment of II inches was all hooked up with the human Mastodon who went by the name of Henry and looked the Part.
 Now, it happened that Hen and Jess lived in a nice little Town where there were a great many lonely Old Families and a great deal of Wealth, but it was pervaded at all Hours by a Cemetery Calm. The Social Gayeties of the Place revolved slowly around a Missionary Society. Any one desiring to mix a Cocktail had to pull down all the Blinds and disconnect the Telephone and also it was advisable to wear Masks at a Poker Party.
 Jessaline would often become rest less and champ at the Bit. She had att tended a Select School for Girls, at which she had learned how to turn HandSnrines and do other ParlOr Di- does. No wonder that she hated to play Dominoes all Evening and then out the Lights at 9:30 D. m., which, in Keen Society is the mere Edge of the Night.

ering his head. The high degree of civilization attained by the inhabi- tants of the city is shown by the fact that they built in several stories, by the symmetry of the streets ani squares and by the beauty of the baked clay and metal utensils and of the orna- ments and coins which have been found.
 It is supposed that long centuries ago this city, so carefully concealed in the bowels of the earth, provided an entire population with a refuge from the in cursions of nomadic savages and rob- bers.

FOR THOSE WHO LIVE ON FARMS

Dr. Bergin, Pana. H., writes: "I have used Ballard's Snow Liniment; always recommend it to my friends, as am confident there is no better made. It is a dandy for burns" Those who live on farms are especially liable to many accidental cuts, burns. and
 bruises which heal rapidly when Bal lard's Snow Liniment is applied. It should always be kept in the house for cases of emergency. 25c, soc, and $1.00 at Elvey & Hulett's, the live druggists.

Here is a story about Kubellk that did not come from his press agent: The violinist was once asked to play at lunatic asylum. He chose a brilliant Slav composition. and the audience seemed delighted. One of the regular boarders came up and began to talk with him. Kubelik asked him how he liked the performance. The lunatic stared at him for a while. and then said.

BRINGING OUT THE RATTLERS.
Hot Weather IN Stirring Up Some Big and
Vicious Reptiles Up state.

LoRDvILLE, N. Y, July 1s.-The hot
weather of the last week has driven the
rattlesnakes from their dry quarters on
the mountains to the lowands and valleys
near the creeks to assuage their thirst.
Within few days more than dozen have
been killed near this place and as many
more have been despatched near the neigh
boring village of Long Eddy.
What is remarkable is the great size Of n
majority of the rattlers. Several have been
found to be feet and more in length An
other characteristic is that they are in
tensely vicious. Ordinarily RATHER,
though he carries a deadly poison in his
fangs, will seek to hide from observation
when disturbed rather than show fight
But large number of those recently killed
we're determined to dispute the right OF
their disturbers TO infringe upon their
domain, and fought desperately
A RATHER from "a to ~ feet long is
dangerous foe to meet, unless one has n
stout stick with which to begin the battle
A small stick or an ordinary riding whip,
while sufficiently effective on n small RATHER
Ia only provocative to large one. For
while the rattlers movements in travelling
nre slow, he can coil and spring with the
rapidity of lightning, and his aim is as
accurate as his bite is deadly.

NEW IN MANS DRESS.
Summer Shirts-Expensiye Underwear
Moro Seryfceable Pumps.

-NWEO ScfVhCSAUc
The specialists in haberdnshery who
receive high prices for their goods never
repaired more elaborate articles for mems
wear than they are offering this year.
One shop in an uptown street is selling
exquisite silk-ribbed shirts for men. They
| are cut out under the arms like a swim
ming jersey. have no buttons Of any kind
and are made In the most delicate shades
of pink mEuve and pale blue.
In the boxes--covered with paper in the
same shade an the underwear are silk
socks. The outfit varies in price in 40
cordance with the socks. For set OF the
underwear alone the cost 10 Si2. Men are
accustomed TO pay expensive prices for
unidrclothes nowadays, as one showed the
other day when he carelessly ordered two
dozen suits OF Undertaking that cost
$40 a piece.
Neali06 shirts are made this year with
soft culfs that fold back over the wrist
and are fastened with pearl buttons. 1t
has been decreed this year that pearl but
tons are to be the mode with soft shirts
and cuff buttons are in disfavor.
Tucks In soft shirts are not seen 30 much
az they were and the latest summer styles
show q single tuck down the centre OF the
shirt The soft cuffs are OF madras or fine
cheviot.
Some men who wear these elaborate

send them to French cleaners, where they
are put into a condition Of freshness by
the dry process. BY this means these
expensive garments are kept In color and
in good condition in every particular
Another feature in mems dress noted
this year is the new use OF pumps, When
these slippers were used here first they
were thin-soled things, intended only for
dancing. Englishmen walk about the
streets OF London In pumps and the same
style came to be initiated here, with more
or less disastrous results.
Men could never 80 thoroughly accus-
tom themselves to the style as not to take
cold And the shoes with the soles so thin
could not be made to hold their shape.
Now the pump is quite solid affair.
The soles are as thick as those patent
leather walking boot would have and the
whole workmanship of the shoe is Of a
character to make 1t more substantial In

The fippant artist could, however, be very
serious in his art and its defence.
Art should be independent OF all clap

appeal to the artistic sense Of eye or ear,
without oonfounding this with emotions
entirely foreign to 1t, as devotion, pity
love. patriotism and the like. All these
have no kind OF concern with it, and that
is why insist on calling my works ARA nge-

Take the picture of my mother. exhibited
