The Name of II.

Simeon Ford. the New York wit
and hotel-keeper. tells of woman
in a Chicago hotel who was known
as the most inveterate "kicker" the
hosiery had ever known.
One evening at dessert the lady
who was always complaining asked
the waiter why the dish served her
was called ice cream pudding"
"If you don't like it, ma'am. I'll
bring you something else" suggest
ed the polite negro.
"Oh. it's very nice" responded
the lady. "what l object to is that
II should be called ice cream pud-
ding. It's wrongly named. There
should be ice cream served with It,"
Eyes. ma'am." replied the waiter,
:but that's just our name for II.
Lots o. dishes that way. Dey don't
bring you a cottage with cottage

A ROMANCE IN BRooKLyN.
Nay, More, II Was a Great Moral
Lesson Seen From Chicago.

In Brooklyn, a few days ago.
Charles Lustig. a painter. while at
work, fell from the high scaffoliing
of house. In his descent he man
aged to catch and cling to a window
sill. high above the hard, unsympa-
thetic sidewalk.
"Helpl Help. Assistance" he
cried. and then the lady appeared.
She leaned far out of the window,
saying:
Courage! Courage! will save
you!'
Thereupon she caught him gently
but firmly, by the shoulders and
pulled him inside.
Annie Paulter was her name. and
she was dressmaking by the window
when Lustig arrived.
We may only guess what was said
and done after Charles and Annie
found themselves face to face in the
room. 1t is not difficult however.
to imagine the scene. for II Is on
record that they. who had never
gazed upon or heard of each other
before the fingers of Charles came in
contact with the window sill, were
married a few days later.
A pretty romance, indeed. Yet it
was something more than a romance
II was a great moral lesson, as any
maiden who will think upon IT for a
moment may discover. II Annie
had been clerking in a store or work
ing in box factory or operating a
typewriter in the Office of some in
surance magnate. 1t Is not likely that
she and Charles would ever have
stood, trembling, beside her sewing
machine, where soft eyes looked
love to eyes which spake again"
Frequently 1t happens that the hard
est place in which to find man is
the place where men are most plen-
tiful. He is likely al any moment
to drop in on the girl who Is dress
making away back somewhere in a
quiet neighborhood. while the maid
en- who goes into his haunts dag
after day is never permitted to dis
cover him. AS another of our great
bards has said:
How happily she greets the dawn
Who fills her place as best she can
And eagerly keeps hoping on:
To-day kind heaven may send the
man.

asserting that the presidents work
is a war half won." and that he
now should not seek TO abandon 1t.
