Capt. W. H. Hardy of Mississippi, deliver
ed an addr-ss at Meridian some years ago,
in which he took the sensible grounds hat a
man who mortgages his ciop before it is pro
duced, sells and conveys, u|<on conditions,
something that docs not exist, and may
never exist; and therefore the man who takes
this risk necessarily cnarg-s for it; he is
compelled t > do so to protect himself; and
bancs the mortgage amounts simply to the
deavoring to muster up courage to face the
awfully penetrating eye of the man at the
delivery window. Handsome young women
with rosy cheeks and laughing eyes have
seen it and speculated as to why i was not
given to them without fur her delay. Young
men with girls have urged th< Ir respective
sweethearts to step up and ask for what is
clearly their own. The amount of trouble
und worry which that little envelope has
created in the city is simply incalculable.
And meantime the letter lant.Hlieii.gly hangs
in the window, while the Cerberus at ’he de
livery window awaits with uneasiness and
impatience the dreadful moment ween some
woman shall demand the troublesome docu
ment, and be shall lie force-i to compel her
to shoe cause, if any, why e should consid

A Good Cure I'or Gossips.
An English paper publishes a sure cure for
we 1 (jos iping. It appears that a poor woman,
j much given to gossip but anxious to soar o
higher tilings, is explaning to M ss Hopkins
her means for ridding her house of the gos
sips of the neighborhood. In answer to a
remark of Miss Hopkins that “the Bible tells
us 10 lie conr'eons, and that to turn folks oai
of our house, however much in the way they
may he, is apt to look rude,’’ she replies:
“’he first thing I did was to get the brush

Cincinnati Enquirer: There is a show-
window on ore of the avenues full of reform
undergarments of mysterious shapes. Vari
ous ideas in corsets are realised, and suspend
ers for skirts and stockings are numerously
displayed, hut the general tendency of the
reforms there ilinstrated is toward combining
two articles in one. An undershirt and a
corset cover become a single garment, and
so do a nightgown and a nightcap. The
most striking thing in the window is of white
muslin, and has lioth arms and legs. It is,
so to speak without equivocations, a chemise
as far down as the waist, and drawers below
that dividing line. The utility of it is not
— . . very apparent, though the dealer declares
uses, he may lose it all on the j jt saves time and trouble, and is more
' comfortable. It. certainly is rather a start
ling object, as it hangs at full length and
breadth in the window; yet I imagine that it
is mysterious to most of the men who throw
sly glances at t as they puss hy. Why wo
men's underwear should be a delicate subject
is to ine a woman most wonderful, but so i:
is. Even two girls who were looking at
some reform goods as I entered the store
seemed desirous of escaping. But there was
a strong-mannered woman there who did
not shrink; and I observed that she bought
several of the curious combinations, while
the comely girls went out without making
any purchase. I talked with the old one for

The Chris'ian Index, of Atlanta, Georgia,
says there are some men who will make

are shrewd, energetic and.industrious. There

may be iooh d for in the fact that his mind

exchange in market for the necessaries which

The truth is. farmers, as a class, do not en

The garment to which she referred is called

any. and the sale-girl grew persuasive.
“You can hardly appreciate how Incom

She conducted me into a rear apartment—
a sort of dressing-room for the trying on of
garments—and called out, “Lizze!" “Liz
zie!" In res- ouse a handsome young woman
came in. Removing a loose wrapper, she
unconcernedly displayed several of thees-
tahl shmeni’s devices.

served to arrest the affectionate attention of

A few d ys alter this two peddlers wend
their way through the streets of Gooseberry.
The firs, house at w ioh they ship is 1 hat of
Mrs. Wis-el, one of the supposed disconso
late*. The lady h-rst-If opens the door, and
with no very amiable expression of face or
tone demands their business.
•‘Oob, shore, an’ will not the le.idy look at
the is'Hiitful goods.—chape, chatie as dhirt,”
asks the more voluble of the two
‘ Oh! I took you for tramps. Ye-., the girls
will look at your goivls.”
They go in, and kneeling on the oilcloth
display those ar<icles most dear to tho femin- 1
ine heart.
“How ovaty!" cried Miss Lecaoie, as mi
peddler hol>#-_ap a piece^jlj.^heeny alapaca,
“If we were not. obliged to go in mourning
I wou'd buy this.”
“/ shall not put on horrid black frocks for
an old codger who left us a. pitiful five thous
and apiece,” declares Miss Seraphine, the uu-
disputed beauty of the family.
“After ail our trouble in putting up with
his ways," adds Miss Louisa.
“Better say expense,” snaps her mamma.
“We always had his favorite dishes when be
dined with us.
“And Louise turned her lieau off—the only
oil" she ever did or will have, because uncle
Jones didn’t approve,” goes on Miss Seraphine.
“And who made a guy of herself because
be didn't like banged hair!” retorts Miss
Louisa.
“I did, and I'd do as much again for fifty
thousand dollars.”
“And miss it.”
“I don’t care, so you didn't get it.”
And as they wrangle over their wrongs,
ree.l or fancied, the peddlars go out.
“I thought they were almost angels,” sighs
one.
“Such is life,” philosophically- returns the
other.
To the residence of Cleotha the newly-mar
ried and favorite neice, they next betook
themselves. Seated among many evidences
of her uncle’s generosity they find her. Pack
age after package is displayed before her
fastidious gaze. At last they come upon a
box of stationery embellished with a simper
ing face—a face wonderfully like one dead
and gone these twenty years but dear to one
heart still.
“This is the fac simile of your old uncle
Jones' sweetheart,” laughs Cleotha's hus
band. “He always said you were just like
her.”
“The idea!” (in intense disgust) “I like that
yellow-haired,blear-eyed thing,"cries Cleotha
“You said she was beautiful, and rather
prided yourself on the resemblance.”
“He was worth $50,000.”
“Charles will be different,” groans one of
the peddlars, as literally and metaphorically
he shakes the dust, from his feet at Cleotha’s
threstiold.
He finds Master Charles occupying his for
mer room, und through the clouds of tobacco
smoke, descries many interdicted associates
who seem to be on the best possible terms
with their host.
“Heilo, my covies, what's the row?” de
mands the young worthy as they appear.
“Veel de shenrlemens ’uv of de seegares?”
“No, frog-eater, don’t you see we are sup

“Veil, I weel tell de sbentlemans of dedes-

No—clear out, I say. My fortune’s told—
the old chap has kicked the bucket aud I’ve

“It’s too had,” they hear the landlady say
as they go down stairs. “Poor Mr. Jones

The “point of honor” can often be made to
produce, hy means of vanity, as many good
deeds as virtue.—Talleyrand.
The best of men may sometimes fall into
the gu'ter, but it is the worst oniy who is
willing to remain there.—IF. G. Simms.
The beet physician is he who insinuates
hope into the heart at the same time t hat he
prescribes a cordial for the disease.—Rover,.
Grief knits two hearts in closer bonds than
happiness ever can; and common sufferings
are far stronger links than common joys.—
Lamartime.
“And who knows ‘.vhat might a-bnpjiened
if he hadn’t xventa-fishing. That very morn
ing he went away be says: ‘Mrs. Dodges,
Mary Anne’s growiu’ up a real party girl.’
Bays 1,‘Do you think so, Mr. Jones?’ And
who knows hut he might a-asked you to
marry him!”
“I ask you now, Mary Annie,” cries Mr.
Jones, rushing in and catching her in his
arms in a transport of granitui e. “I am
not dead—t he fishes didn’t eat me. I’ll mar
ry you if you love me—say yes, Mary Annie.”
A school-teacher who had just been telling
her class about the wonders of ancient Baby
lon, wound up with, “And all this happened
two thousand years ago.” A little girl, her
blue eyes dilated with wonder, after a mo
ment of meditation, exclaimed, “Oh, dear,
marin, what a memory yon must have!”
If women are really augels why don’t they
fly over a fence instead of making such a
fearfully awkwardjob of climbing?
