A bright future may be yours, Caiista.

You can afford to toll me the truth.” “Of course I only moan 1,000 in round numbers. My actual circula tion is 380, but it is growing every day, Miss Caiista. I work off three quires more than the Jasper Herald of American Liberty does, and he claims 1,600, In less than a year you and I could make even the circu lation of Doc Reeves’ Pinhook Jig ger look mighty sick.’’ “Excuse the question.

I never got loss that seven coropli mentary tickets whenever a circus and menagerie comes to Doodleville, and every wedding in the neighbor hood brings me in a box of assorted scraps of cako. I tell you, Miss Cal ista, the Yelper is humping itself along in more ways than advertising. Some of my editorials have been copied into the Brimfield Tomahawk and Eureka Thunderbolt, and pro nonneed the ablest articles on chinch bugs in corn and the moral influence of woman in politics that have been printed in any of the papers for miles around: and I have been promi neatly mentioned as a candidate for the position of delegate to the dis Irict lodge of Good Templars.” ‘•I am not insensible to the die linetion you offer to confer upon me, Mr. Clugston,” said the young lady softly. “I will be your wife on con dition that it shall not be part of my duty to wash the office towel.“ Wash the office towel, Caiista!* 1 ‘ exclaimed Mortimer "ClugstoD.as his hair rose straight up on end in a par oxysm of am izomenu “we never wash it, ho help me Benjamin Frank hn!

A Hint to 1’uny People, From their arrival on this planet to their usually early departure from it, people of weak constitutions and angular physiques pass a sort of lialf-exietence. Like dormice they heat, burrow in their home retreats, afraid of afraid of cold, constantly afraid that the shadow of the dread reaper will ma terialize and exact the forfeit which he de¬ mauds from all, sooner or later.
