The Missing Suspender.
MRS SI’OOI’ENDVKE. IN A FIT OF DO
MESTIC ECONOMY, CLEANS IIER
husband's clothes.
“ Now. my dear,” said Mr. Sixiopen
dyke, as he stretched himself and drew
on his pantaloons, “you've cleaned
these trousers up first-rate. That is
what I call economy. If I had taken
’em to the tailor’s it would have cost
a couple of dollars at least, and you've
saved just that amount,” and Mr.
Spoopend\ ke went to his ablutions
and then pulled on his shirt.
“I'll clean your coat, too, if you
like,” said Mrs.Spoor.endyke. “Leave
it at home some day. and I’ll take this
spot out of the sleeve,” and Mrs.
Spoopendyke hustled around and
looked delighted at the idea of pleasing
her husband.
“ Where’s my suspenders!” asked
Mr. Spoopenkyke, screwing himself
around and looking down his back.
“ You didn’t clean the suspenders clear
out of sight, did you ?”
“They were there when yon put on
the pants,” said Mrs. Spoopendyke.
“ I have not touched them. What did
you do with them ?”
“Oh, yes, certainly. I did some
tiling with them ! What d’ye ’spose
l did with them ? Think I set them
up in business somewhere, don’t ye?
Got an idea 1 gave ’em a vacation to
go fishing, havn't ye ? Wei!, I didn’t,
and morn’n that, I didn’t send them
away to be educated for the ministry.
Where’s my_ suspenders? WLere’n
von put’em ? S’pose I’m going around
holding these pants up all day ? Think
I got no business interests besides
hoidiug on my breeches with both
hands? What did you do with
tilings?”
“ I know I didn't take them off the
pants,” said Mrs. Spoopendyke, pull
ing open the bereau drawers and hust
ling things around in a vain endeavor
to'find the missing articles. “They’
must be there somewhere.”
“ Show ’em to me, then !” demanded
Mr. Spoopendyke. “ Take a stick and
point 'em out to me ! Of course they
are somewhere, only just put your
thumb on 'em ! What have you done
witli ’em ? Can't you recollect wheth
er ye made ’em into hat hands for the
heathen, like you did my dressing
gown, or 'whether you planted them
to see if they would grow, like you did
my straw hat? Think they walked
off like a Croton bug ? S'pose those
suspenders have taken their girl to a
picnic? What kind of housekeeping
do you call this, anyhow ? “ Where's
my suspenders? and lie pulled the
hooks off the shelf, and rummaged
around behind the case with a broom
handle for a divining rod.
“ Maybe I can fix your pants so you
won't need any suspender to-day,
and I'll find them before night,” sug
gested Mrs. Spoopendyke.
“That’s it. You've got it,” raved
Mr. Spoopendyke. “ llow are you go
ing to fix them ? Going to tie them
on with a shoe string like you do your
Going to walk around be
hind me all day and hold 'em on ?
P'raps you can (lull ’em np and but
ton 'em round my neck. llow d’ye
propose to fix ’em ? Going to put ’em
on me outside down, so if they fall
they fall up? If I had your head I’d
go out to service as a file. Fix ’em,
whv don’t you ? Why don’t you fix
'em ? These trousers are getting sick
at the stomach, waiting to be fixed !*’
and Mr. Spoopendyke shot across the
room and dove under the wardrobe in
search of the lost suspenders.
“Just let me buckle them tight be
hind,” said Mrs. Spoopendyke; “the
strap will hold them.”
“ That’s the scheme 1” shrieked Mr.
Spoopendyke. “Something got to
hold them ! If I was as sharp as you,
I’d get rich hiring out for a oyster
knife. All you want is to have some
body sil cross legged on you, and come
home two weeks after you're expected,
to be a tailor shop! Going to find
these dodgasted suspenders between
now and the next war ?”
“ I know they were on his pants
when lie put them on,” mused Mrs.
Spoopendyke, entering upon a little
indicative reasoning. He didn't take
them off, and so they must be there
now,”, and the good woman approach
ed her husband with a smile.
“ Oh !. how they are going to be fix
ed,” said Mr. Spoopendyke, with a
terrible grin. “ Perhaps you are going
to cut button-holes in your hands and
feet and hang over my shoulders, ain't
ye ? Want me to put ’em on over inv
head, like a measly skirt, and two
tucks and a flounce to it, don’t ye?
Maybe you think those suspenders
hurried down to breakfast, so’s to get
the first crack at the morning paper,
don’t ye ?
But Mrs. Spoopendyke made no re
sponse. Opening the back of her hus
band’s fluttering shirt, she saw the
missing suspenders. He had slipped
them over his shoulders before assaili
ng the muslin, and had forgotten all
about them.
“ Smart as a whip, ain'tye ?” growl
ed Mr. Spoopeudyke. as lie drew off
the shirt and let Lis snnenders down.
“If my head was as clear as yours,
I’d Lire out for a church bell. -Yon
only need four lessens and a drop of
rain water to be a microscope,” and
he hurried on his clothes, and scuttled
down to get the morning paper before
his wife could get a clutch at it.
Nervous debility, the curse of the
American people, immediately yields
to the action of Brown's Iron Bitters.
Woman’s Wisdom.
“She insists that it is more impor
tance. that her family shall he kept
in full health, than that she should
have all the fashionable dresses and
styles of the times. She therefore
sees to it, that each member of her
family is supplied with enough llop
Bitters, jit the first appearance of any
symptoms of any ill health, to prevent
a fit of sickness with its attendant ex
pense, care and anxiety. All women
should exercise their wisdom this
way.” —New l/ctvn Palladium.
Cause of the Efflux of Gold.
It seems incredible, but never
theless it is true, that the large outflow
of gold from this country is due not
to the importation from abroad of the
actual necessaries of life, but to the
large purchase of foreign luxuries, and
handsome dresses and gew gaw3 by
the wealthy. There is nothing among
tiie imports which now turn the
balance against the United States
which could not ho dispensed with
without the least unpleasant depriva
Lion or the slightest contraction of our
own productions or curtailment of
domestic industries. But, as the St.
Louis Republican remarks, these con
siderations will not check the
tendency to over buying or even tend
to the restoration of a favorable
balance. The current of imports will
(low in upon us, and the yellow tide go
out till the vast productions of the
country change it, or till, in the event
of short crops, if they shall recur,
universal commercial stress and busi
ness stagnation bring the subject home
to all classes of the people. It would,
says that paper, “ he as easy to com
mand- the elements and to put limits
upon the energies of nature itself as to
change the course of public taste and
prescribe prudent hounds to the con
sumption of luxuries and the in
dulgence of extravagances of a popula
tion such as we now arc in the United
States. The cycle of flush times an 1
hard times will he completed, and the
lessons of economy and wisdom will
he learned only in the school of ex
perience. Fortunately there appears
to be little doubt that a great crop will
put off the dreaded period of hard
times indefinitely, and that such stress
as brought so much hardship from
1873 to 1878 will he put off till the
conditions shall be widely different
from those now in view. It is, how
ever, humiliating to modern states
manship and our boasted general in
telligence that a country of such varied
and vast resources as ours should not
learn wisdom enough by the aid of
political science to forever avoid the
evils which ever wait upon violated
economical laws.”
HOW WATCHES ARE MADE.
It will bo apparent to any one who will
examine a Solid Goj and Watch, that aside
from tlie.necessary thickness for engraving
and polishing, a large proportion of the
precious metal used is needed only to
stiffen and hold the engraved portions in
place, and supply the necessary solidity
and strength. The surplus gold is actu
all} 7 needless so far as utility and beau
ty are concerned. In JAMES BOSS’
PATENT GOLD WATCII CASES, this
WASTE of precious metal is overcome, and
the SAME SOLTI in Y AND STRENGTH pro
duced at from one-third to one-half of the
usual cost of solid cases. This process is
of the most simple nature, as follows : a
plate of nickle composition metal especi
ally adapted to the purpose, has two plates
of solid gold soldered one on each side.
The three are then passed between polish
ed steel rollers, anu the result is a strip o
heavy plated composition, from which the
cases, backs, centres, bezels, etc., arc cut
and shaped by suitable dies and formers.
The gold in these cases is sutlicicntly thick
to admit of all kinds of chasing, engraving
and enamelling; the engraved cases have
been carried until worn perfectly smooth
by time and use without removing the
gold.

Action of thd Lime Kiln Club on the
Watermillyun in Question.
Lord Clj’de Parslow, who has hith
erto been content to listen and approve,
astonished the meeting by introducing
the following preamble and resolution :
Whereas, Dc doctors am a yunit in
declarin’ dat dc watermellyun exer
cises a powerful benefit on dc human
system, an. anoder mcllyun sezon am
a few brief months distant; now. dar
fore.
Resolved, Dat dis club will use its
influence to increase de number of
mellyuns raised in d's State, an’ it
am deopinyuu of dis club dat no one
pusson kin raise too many.
The debate being on the adoption
of the resolution, Caraway Blossom
moved to amend so that onions should
be included with melons, but the
amendment was lost.
Julias Ciusar Singleton favored an
amendment advising every one who
went into i lie melon business to plant
one watch dog in a hill with every five
seeds, and to have one row of bear
traps to every two rows of hills, but
this was also lost. The original resolu
tion was then passed by a majority of
two on a call of the ayes and nays,
many members holding that if the
melon business was-agitated through
the press thus early, the only chance
to secure one in the summer would be
to buy it. —Free Press.

The Difference Between a Cyclone
and a Tornado.
Fhe difference between a cyclone
and a tornado is defined !>v Mr. Wil
liam Ferris, of the United .States
coast survey, to he this : A cyclone
is usually a broad, flat, gyrating disk
of atmosphere very much greater in
width than altitude ; a tornado is a
column of gyrating air. the altitude
of which is several times greater than
its diameter. Cyclones are horn of
conditionsextending over large areas ;
tornadoes depend rather upon the ver
tical relations of the atmosphere, and
occur when, owing to local changes of
temperature, the under strata of air
bursts up through the overlying strata.
The enormous velocitiesofthe ascend
ingenrrentsof tornadoes are supposed
to he caused by the difference between
the gyrating velocities above and
i hose on the surface. It is these as
cending currents which carry up the
vast bodies of water afterward preci
paled in the form of a deluge of rain.
Fhe water is sometimes kept from fall
ing by the ascending currents, and is
often projecting outside the area of the
tornado, when it falls in a gentle show
er over a large area. When the weight
of the water overbears the force of the
ascending currents, there occurs the
tremendous fall of rain known as a
cloud hursts. When the area of a
tornado is very small, a land spout or
water spout may be formed, according
as it is over land and water. The
width of these spouts ranges between
two feet and 200, and their height
from 30 to 1.500 feet. A white squall
is an invisible spout formed when the
dew point is low. The accompanying
cloud is invisible because of its height,
but below there is a raging and hoi 1 -
ing sea, with a gyrating current of air
above it. Land spouts and water
spouts are hollow.

Stopped His Paper.
Now a days when a subscriber gets
so mad because an editor differs with
him on some trivial question that he
discontinues his paper, we remind him
of a good anecdote of the late Horace
Greelev. the well known editor of the
New York Tribune. Passing down
Newspaper Row in New York city one
morning, lie met one of his readers,
who exclaimed :
“ Mr. Greele}’, after the article you
published this morning, I intend to
stop your paper.”
“ Oh, no,” said Mr. Greeley, “ don't
do that.”
“ Yes, sir, ray mind is made up. I
shall stop the paper.”
But the angry subscriber was not to
be appeased, and they separated. Late
in the afternoon the two met again,
when Mr. Greeley remarked:
” Mr. Thompson, I am very glad
you did not carry out your threat this
morning.”
“ What do you mean ?”
“ Why, you said }'ou were going to
stop my paper.”
“ And so I did. I went to the oQice
and had my paper stopped.”
“ You are surely mistaken ; T have
just come from there and the press
was running and business was boom
ing.”
O

recently. It was warm and sunshiny,

thrown open, when a swarm of bees,

Waycross Reporter ; “Thebeautiful
little gir! of Conductor W. R. Ward,
now about eighteen months of ago,
was playing in the yard at his new
residence near the restaurant, where
a well had just been dug but not curbed
at the top, as is usual, but had a lot
of plank put over it, which the little
child managed by some means to move
and in doing so fell in the well, there
being a quantity of water in tho
bottom. The great mystery is why
the child was not drowned. Mrs Ward
hearing its screams, ran to the well
but to behold her darling little one
sink out of her sight wi*,h her head
downwards. She at once gave the
alarm, when Mr, W. T. Murrow went
with great haste to her assistance and
in moving the cover so that lie could
descend, dropped several short pieces
of scantling in the water, which
possibly caused the child to rise once
more to the surface, when he grabbed
hold of one of its little feet, and
brought it out. After a short while it
was resuscitated, and given back, as
it were, to its fond and loving parents.’ 1
