MEXICAN WOOING.

From Making Eyes at Senorita to the Grand Serenade.
 In the uncertain illumination of the electric lamps some of the senoritas of Topic City appeared very attractive in breezy, fluffy gowns and fetching mantillas, and they knew it pretty well too. They like to have you look at them directly and admiTi:lgly, and they will not drop their eyes.
 If you have the nerve to give one look of this kind-such a look as would be considered extremely rude in any American city-the chances are when you meet her on the next turn you will be rewarded with smile and challenge from the black eyes, and if you have a sufficient stock of nerve in reserve you will speak to her and pay her some complimentary remark upon the first opportunity that offers This is good breeding and will. not be resented.
 Should you then become infatuated with the lady you will search out her home. visit her barred window and nope under it for an hour or two every morning, and if you impress her favorably she will make your heart glad by talking with you through the bars or dropping little scented notes to you.
 Should you become real serious you will hire a stringed band to serenade her at night now and then. To con- form with the custom you should start your band out at midnight and let it play as long as your money lasts.-Out- ing Magazine

The Times political Rossiper trots out Representative Forster of this city and Representative Piuney of Stafford as probabilities for the demo- cratic nominee for senator in the dis trict. It is satisfied these gentlemen will settle it between themselves as to whom shall run, and that there will be no contest in the convention
 Messrs. Forster and Pinney are very estimable gentlemen. and their pub lie records would not fail to commend them to the voters of the district. The Leader has received no official in- formation from democratic head quarters, but it is willing to prophecy thus early that Representative L. T. Tiniger of this city will be the demo- cratic nominee for senator from the 35th senatorial district, and he'll poll a big vote, too, if he is nomi mated, not only in Rockville, but throughout the entire district. Rep resentative Forster is more likely to be the democratic nominee for sheriff of Holland county, and he'll give the present republican incumbent of the office, Sheriff Sprague, the biggest fight he has veer had in his political career. .-Rockville Leader.

Animal Himicry.

OhscrN CTS of nature are frequently struck with the singular resenblances of insects. to leaves. dried sticks. etc. and these likenesseS are supposed to have grown out of the necessity of protection against or conceaiment from enemies. An interesting example of this kind of resemblance was brought to the attention of the En- tomological society ill London by a naturalist. who exhibited a spider found inhaDting some rocks near Cannes. on which were also fastened the eases of a species of moth. When at rest the spider exhibited almost precisely the same form and color as the moth cases surrounding it.
