“That’s awfully too too enchant
ing for anything.”
These utterances came
from Ta-Ta, the lovely and accom
plished daughter of Real Jollyouss.
Esq., and were addressed to her
ambitious yet congenial and will
ing paternal parent.
Ta-ta was tall, graceful and mis-
chcivous, and asjfrcsh and beauti
ful as the flowers she had just
brought from the conservatory.
She appeared to great advantage
in a chef d'ocuvrt of worth an in
comparable evening dress of satin
Surab and moire antique brocade,
in r delicate shade of rose color,
luqdo with a deep and narrow
sqaarc train, and a pointed waist
of.the brocade, witli the tnbiier
covered with plating, folded dra
pery and painers of the Surab, pro
fusely trimmed with quillings of
ndi Oriental lace, and a band of
exquisitely beautiful pearl passem
enterie bordered the waist, Ta-ta
bad luxuriant hair, which, with the
addition of her false trouts, set oil
her handsome hair to perfection
Mpst ladies now wear false front
pieces, which arc made to look
very natural on very light tulle
with a transparent part. They are
mrist convenient, as they preserve
a lady’s own hair, which it injures
toi crimp, and are arranged on the
hqnd in a very short time, and
remain in crimp much longer than
the natural hair.
Jollycuss went to California In
1846, as poor as a sanctuary ro
dent; but he waB an Ohio mnn, and
hts good luck never deserted him,
Besides, be invested a large amount
of money at one timejn stocks, and
accumulated therefrom many hun
dreds of thousands of dollars
which was quite a surprise, by the
way, both to himself and his brok-
He then drew out and soon
after erected a dwelling on Cali

“Ob, that’s too awfully jolly,”
Interrupted Mr. J., nearly burstiug
with laughter.
“And lie said I migbt have it for

“Oh, I shall spoil I” groaned
Jollycuss. “Go on !”
“And I told him to he sure to
charge ma at least $1,000 for it;
and that ha could send the check to
your office, and also the bill for the
old rubbish at his own conven

“Well, so far so good,” rejoined

especially as it is such a costly or
nament—ha I ha I—you had better
have your mother sond it to my
library, and when I return from
my office to-morrow, we’ll have a
farce tbat shall prove a regular
screamer.”
I hardly need inform the reader
tbat Mrs. J. purchased that four
dollar clock, and gave tbe auction
eer a $1,000 check for it, and that
tbo aforesaid timepiece readied the
Jollycuss mansion during the
morning *of April 1, and sbortly
afterwaril was set tip in one corner
of tbe library.
At twonty-ilve minutes to three
Mrs. Jollycuss and Ta-ta descended
from their respective apartments
and entered the library.
Miss Jollyouss was' irresistibly
lovely in a combination Of velvet
brocade atul carnation design on
white satin ground and blue satlil,
elaborately shirred and trimmed
with Spanish laee. Mrs. J. looked
very stately in her handsome din
ner dress of gold brown plush gal
loon, with a profusion of rich me
dallions of silk passementcrios.
At twenty-five minutes to four
Mr. Jollycuss ariived from town,
and after taking a snifter proceed
ed to the library;
Of course, lie saw tllo clook as
soon ns he entered,- arid he also BaW
the smile tbat played upon tbe fade
of his darling Ta-ta.
Mrs. J. was not entirely al her
case, for now that tlio old tlmb-
>icco had been purchased and paid
or, it all at once occurred to her
that possibly a thousand dollars
might have been more profitably
expended.
At this juncture Ta-ta saluted
her father with a grimance, and
said: “It’s a daisy.”
And the father, although nearly
broken up by the ejaculation of his
fellow-conspirator, managed to
murmur: “Well I should pause to
ruminate.”
“I would like to know what yon
two arc getting at ?” interroga
ted Mrs., Jollycuss testily. I—”
“Mrs. Jollycuss,” said Mr. J.
with scorning sternness, “permit
fne to inquire affectionately, what
under the moon, son and stars you
are doing with that old, rusty look-
the great auction house at No. —
street, and the flight of the
auctioneer.
Then they aU looked somewhat
dazed for a moment; then Ta-U and
her mother laughed uproriously,
and Jollycuss vociferated:
“Confound that old Dutch clock!”

Why, that is her carriage, and
there is tbe door bell; mum is the

“Mum’s the word, my darling,”
whispered Jollycuss, with a titter.
“I say, Ta-ta, it has Ju^t occurred
to mo that to-morrow Is tho first
day of April; capital day for a
mammoth Joke on the old woman.
I will go out early after tea this
eve, and when the clock arrives,
“Dumb-waiter,” shrieked the
lady, “well I declare 1”
“Yes, dumb-waiter, or possibly it
is a watch-box, such as they used
to havo in the cities thirty or forty
years ago,” said the head of the
ffcmlly.
“Watch-box,dumb-waiter! That
Is much !” and Mrs. J. suddenly
felt ill.
“Well, I should relax a feature,”
said Mr. Jollycuss, glancing at
Ta-ta.
“I really bcllevo that you two
are making fbn of me,” rejoined
Mrs. Jollycuss; “this is entirely
too much!”
“If you will permit me to warble
an opinion, my dear, 1 will inform
you that it is decidedly too muoli;
and I will add that if my valuable
life is preserved until twenty-five
minutes to cloven o’clock to-mor
row that unsightly piece of auction
rubbish shall take a lively waltz
out of this apartment—in other
words, it will bo inhospitably
bounced.”
“Mrs. J. buried her frescoed face
in her handkerchief, and gasped,
It’s neither a dumb-waiter nor a
watch-box, my dear; it’s a—
clock.”
“A what ?”
“A clock, my dear—it is a Dutch
clock. It is more than two hun
dred years old and was once the
property ol Von Tromp, who, you
remember, defeated tlio Spanish off
tbo Downs, 1638, and the English
in 1652, and ' afterward sailed
through tbe channel witli broom at
his masthead. I havo written
guarantees of Its identity from the
auctioneer!”
“How much did you punele, my
dear, for this extraordinary addi
tion to your hospital for dilapi
dated implements of household
use."
“How much ?”
“Yes, plainly, how much money
did you give for that worthless
thing you call a clock 1”
