April ss-ly “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.

I went to the auctioneer yesterday as you planned, and Informed him that we wero going to have a little racket with ma; that sho had tbo bric-a-brac cruze just wild; that she THR LATEST bad set apart an upper room for tbo reception of the most hidious- looking assortment ef broken-down, obsolete and debilitated household furniture that bad aver been hud- dfed together in tbe same collec- BOOkS, tion; that slio bad lately read that Mr. G.

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!” —[Ex.

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” “I gave a check for $1,000, and I am afraid—yes, oh! Iam really Attempt tbe end, and never stand to doubt, Nothlna'a eo hard hat aearch will And on*. Luck is a dream of a Himpleton. No great man is hungry for fame. Virtue is the politeness of the soul. Conversation is the vent of char acter as well as thought. Misfortunes are in morals what bitters are in medicines. If the memory of an injury is cherished it is not forgiven. One trouble sometimes makes us forget a thousand mercies. Recolleot that trifles make per fection, and tbat perfection is no trifle. Tho more virtuous a man is, the more virtue does he see in others. Cold natures have only reccol- lcctions; tender natures have re membrances. What the child admired, the youth endeavored and tbe man ac quired. It Is often the case tbat men, for the sake of getting a living, forget to live. Tho virtue of prosperity la tem perance; the virtue of advorsity is fortitude. Hard workers are usually honest. Industry lifts them above tempta tion. Small things cease to be small when their effects are mighty. You cannot dream yourself into a character; you must hammer and forgo one. The power to do great things generally arises from the willing- acss to do small things. There is many a man whose ton- S ue might govern multitudes, if e could only govern his lon gue. By example wo become tcaob- ers. ’Tis not what wo wear on our backs, but what we wear in our brains. We judge ourselves by what wo feel capable of doing, while others judge us by what we have already done. Knowledge dwells in heads re plete with thoughts of other men; wisdom, in minds, attentive to their own. Kloganco of language may not bo the power of overy ono, hut simplicity and straightforwardness •re. A man who habitually Stakes mean remarks about the other sex Is a safe maq to habitually keep away from. Ono of the mistakes in the con duct of human life is to suppose that othor men’s opinions are to make us happy. As no roads are so rough as those that have already beon mend ed, so no sinners are so Intolerant as those who have just turned saints. , When a man begins asking biro- self, “Does it pay to bo honest f” lie is preparing to demonstrate prac tically that no man can afford to lie dishonest. Don’t be afraid of appearances so long as your life Is all right. No man can better aflord to have ill tempered things said of him thairthe man who does not deserve them. A Small Pox Preventive.
