t*IGNS OF A BOY.
A gun in the parlor, a kite in the hall.
In the kitchen a book, and a bat and a ball.
On the sideboard a ship, on the bookcase a
flute,
And a hat for whose ownership none would
dispute;
And out on the porch, gallantly prancing
no where,
A spirited hobby horse paws r.t the air;
And a well polished pie plate out there on
the shelf,
Hear the tall jelly jar which a mischievous
elf
Emptied as slyly and as slick as a mouse.
Make it easy to see There's a Boy in tlu
House.

The Sweetest Proposal
“The sweetest proposal ever dreamed
of,’’said Eli Perkins, “I think w;.s limii
Austin Dobson.”
“May I call you Paula?’’ he
modestly.
“Yes,” she said, faintly.
“Dear Paula—may I call you
that?”
“I suppose so.”
“Do you know I love you? ’
“Yes.”
“And shall I love you always.'
‘ If you wish to.”
“And will you love me?
Paula did not reply.
“Will you, Paula?” he repeated.
“You may love me,” she said avail.
“But don’t you love me in return?
“I love you to love me.”
“Won’t you say anything more ex
plicit?”
“I would rather not.”
They were married and happy
within three months.
Only a Question of Time.
From the Chicago Tribune.
“James,” said the undertaker, “have
you heard how Mr. Hawkins, (lie sick
old gentleman at the other end oi the
avenue, i.s getting along this even
ing ?”
‘‘Yes, sir,” responded the shop hov.
“The doctor gave him a dose of ti e
’lixirof life last night, and—”
“I think, James,” said the underta
ker with cheerful sadness, “you may
set that lamp in the window and turn
the light tip a little. If anybody
should call for me in the next hall
hour I shall be lying on the lounge
just inside the door of the hack room.”
The Latest Advertising Job.
“Have you heard the latest news?
“No! what is it?”
“You know Smith, the artist?”.
“I should say so. He is my worst
rival.”
“Well, his wife has run away with a
freak out of a dime museum."
“She has? That's all her husband
doings. That’s one of Smith’s ways
of getting himself advertised.”—"lexai
Siftings.
Not so Bad as it Might Bn.
Young Wife—Yes, I am worried.
You see, George has gotten into such
a habit when wc go to the theatre of
going out between the acts.
Friend—Oh, my dear, you look at
it the wrong way. You ought to he
thankful that he conies in between
the drinks.—Texas Siftings.
