Zoo Much Of a Tease.

Blough and Neighbors were chatting
on the porch. Mrs. Blough was in the
rarlcr rear the window. Blough knew
she was listening and wanted to tease
her.
Had n little experience today" he
said TO Neighbors confidentially.
"Pretticst little girl you ever saw. She
was sauntering along the street some
feet behind Il strollipg couple. was
walking faster, and MS l caught up
with her couldn't help looking at her.
she was SO pretty. She caught my
look and smiled. had no intention
of flirting. of course, but that smile
was irresistible. Then our hands
touched accidentally, and we let them
linger minute. She began walking
faster to keep up with me, aud we
passed the couple ahead together.
When we got some distance ahead of
them l mustered up nerve enough to
speak. Good evening" said, and
she replied the same very roguishly."
There was swish of skirts in the
p9rlor, and Blough turned iii time to
see his wife vanishing toward the hall.
"Thunder!' he exclaimed. "Of course
the little girl was only about six years
old, butimy wife didn't wait to hear
that. She's gone upstairs to cry now,
and even If she accepts my explana-
ton 1t means flowers and party
dress. What fools we husbands be!'-

sterne,s pe.titut;on.

Laurence Sterne, the writer. was the
victim of the intensest poverty. A lit
tie time before his death, being in n
state Of destitution. he went one even
ing to borrow f5 from his friend Gar
rick. Upon arriving he heard music
and knew that party was going on.
He heard the merry laughter and, gen.
tly replacing the uplifted knocker, re-
traced his steps.
We never feel our miseries so keenly
rs when contrasted with the joys of
others, and 1t is only then that we real-'
ize WoriswOrth's picture:
And homeless near thousand homes !
stood
And near a thousand tables pinned for food.
Another story of this writer does not
evoke SO much sympathy. 1t was
known that Sterne used his wife very
Ill, and In talking with Garrick one
day In fine sentimental style of conju-
gal love and fidelity he said, The hus-
band who behaves unkindly to his
wife deserves to have his house burn
down over his head"
"If you think SO" said Garrick quiet
ly, II hope yours is well insured"
