A Good Story.
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.
RUINED BY THE LOTTERY.

How a Lottery Ticket Destroy J
the Peace and Happiness
of a Family
Did you ever pause to .2 for k
moment when you go to 2 exprt
office to forward a dollar for a lottt f
ticket that tnat dollar might bg yt r
I eter ual ruin?
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

The whole city was thrown into

were wild. On the following nior:

la Constitution that old man Et
wards, a hard-working engineer in th
Journal’s puss room, was the luck
man, ana had drawn $15,000.

But there w«s a Change— f
Tliis happy home was mined by t

Abner looked up and saw the delicate

It was tempting and he reached forth
and 'ook it. He had put a spoonful o'
the frozen mixture into Ins mouth,

Amos Jerkin's Logic.
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
