Those X,over«i They had been engaged, but now were suffering from one of those quarrels which sometimes ruffle the course of true love. They had not spoken for three days, and neither wished to be the first to yield. But with the hankering which afflicts murderers and lovers with reference to the scene of the late unpleasantness he called at the house on a trumped up business mis sion to her father. By chance (?) she answered his ring at the door. Gathering himself, he, with a cold, slow voice, begins the following dialogue; He-—Does Mr. Dudley reside here? She—He does. He—ls he m? She —He is not. He—Will he be m soonP She—He will. He—Thank you. I will call again, (Turns to go.) She—Excuse me, who shall I say called ?~ Life.

Her broken yoke of servitude she tramples 'neath her feet; Her ancient tyrant she defies and finds her freedom sweet.

A lilttle Thine Like That. "Irfiaw a funny thing down m West Vir ginia not long ago," said the drummer, flicking the ashes from his cigar on his boot heel. "A bride and groom were on a Cin cinnati and Ohio train from Lexington, Ky., got off for a platform promenade while the train was being made up at Hunt ington, and after a few minutes he put her back on the car and went to the restaurant for some fruit. As he came into the car he stopped for a few minutes to speak to a friend m the smoker, and when he came on m to where he supposed his new wife was he couldn't find her. He looked every where without success; then he began to go crazy. "Where's my wife? Where's my wife?" he shouted as he tore up and down the car, and the conductor came hurriedly m to see what the matter was. As he was trying to get a coherent answer from him an old fel low said he had seen her get off the car aft er the young man had put heron at fche last station, and he guessed she was left. Then the groom raved and tore his hair and de manded that the train go back after her. To this the conductor objected, and a com mittee of five married men waited on the groom. "Was it your wife that was left?" in quired the spokesman. "Yes, yes, and the train must go back for her." "Hold on a minute, will you?" said the old spokesman testily. "How long have you been married?" "A week only, and the train must go back after her," he moaned as he rocked himself to and fro. "Well, I guess not!" said the old fellow emphatically. "When you've been married as long as we have, you won't want to be inconveniencing a trainload of passengers for a little thing like leaving your wife be hind," and the groom had to go on to the next station and wait for his bride.—De troit Free Press.



Her New Vacoiuation Murk. She was a pretty girl and his fate, and he was telling her so. She listened angel ically, and by watching her left eyelid he knew he was successful. The left eyelid is always a true indicator of a girl's feelings. Finally he ventured to slip his arm about her, and it was all right for a minute, when she sprung to her feet with anguish on her face. "How can you?" she sobbed. "Brute!" "My own," he protested. "Gol" she wept. "I can never love you! You have no heart, no tenderness! You are Inhumanl" "What have I done?" cried the miserable young man, and then she lifted her stream ing eyes. , , "You have no regard for my vaccination at all," she said. "Oh, how it hurts!" So he was obliged to finish his proposal minus the encircling arm act. He isn't the only man m a like plight just now.—Boston Traveller. He Knew AH but Two. Mother—Oh, Johnnie! Did you knowall your lessons today? Johnnie—Yes'm, all but two. Mother—How many did you havef Johnnie—Two.—Truth.
