Abner Dungrass, from away up beyond the \\ bite mountains, had penetrated to the Hub. it was Ab¬ ner’s first visit to tho city—in fact, his first trip away from home. | A relative doing business in the metropolis had spent, the previous sum¬ mer with Abner’s parents, and in re¬ turn for many kindnesses lie had in¬ vited ni? friends of the country farm to visit him in bis city home. And thus Abner chanced to be in Boston, and was now dining at a hotel with his host. At first our countryman hardly knew what to do with himself at the vvondrously laden table. His relative, observing bis hesitation, whispered to him: “Don’t be backward, Abner; help yourself to just what you like.” By and by a ireu.lemau sitting op¬ posite directed a waiter to bring him a plate of ice-cream.

Well, it might, for such has be i the case, and it is kuown to all tilt history repeats it self. The foliowi tig simple death noth 1 is from Saturday’s Atlanta Journal: ! o Mr Grallt F Edwards is dead. . „ After a lingering illness he breatl ed his last at bis home in West End. About a year ago Mr. Edwards wc $15,000 in the lottery: At the time e was a very poor man, and was 4 engineer in the Journal press room.—| Soon after getting the fortune hi and bis wife became estranged. 1 A few months ago Mrs. Edward died, and now her husband inis passe from earth. Mr. Edwards had many friends ii the city who will greatly regret to hea of his death. The above suggests a most p itheth and “Lange story. Almost two years ago a fcelegran wa3 received in Atlanta to t t ffec that one-ienth of the capital pm been drawn by a ticket field in Atlanta!

Great talkers, it is said, are little thinkers, but then there’s nothing like having the gift of “gab.” Women are peculiarly and woderfully giited in this respect. There’s Mrs. Jerkins, for instance, she’s one of the most gitted gabbers 1 ever saw. She always lias on hand an inexhaustibly vocabu¬ lary of jaw breakers, and she can tell xna more news ii five minutes than I could get out of the newspapers in five days. “If theie’s anv thing that makes a sensible man look cranky,” said a lady recently, “it’s long hair.” Long hair no louger indicates that a man is a great author or artist, but is rather an indication of bachelorhood. A mar¬ ried man will keep his hair cut short in self defence. Speaking of bachelors reminds me of—"standing alone girls;” or, as they are termed by a polite En¬ glishman, “girl bachelors,” This Englishman once said. “1 think the girl bachelor Is altogether tho most remarkable production of the United States of America ” It is said that, a a woman at thirty and even forty Is at her must dangerous and fascinating age.
