A young man who is stopping at a well known watering place has had an amusing experience. At one of ths neighboring hotels be had met a fair southerner who greatly captivated his lather susceptible fancy. His request to be allowed to call met with a gracious assent, and the next day he presented himself at the door of her mother’s sit ting room. "Come in,” called out strident voice as he knocked at the door. On opening it he was surprised to Bee no one in the room, but from tho next apart ment came an injunction in the same harsh accents to "sit right down in the parlor.” Wondering not a little at his recep tion, he took a chair, but his astonish ment may he imagined when he heard „is fair one summoned in the following manner: "Mary Anne, you've got beaul” “Mary Anne, you’ve got a beau!" and his equanimity was not even restored when his inamorata entered and laugh ingly explained that the culprit was a huge green parrot.—New York Tribune. New York's First Bath Tub. "It is really astonishing.” said a gen tleman to me, “how many people there are who, on a sweltering day when the thermometer is way up in the nineties, jpnot take a bath, although their tubs, with hot and cold water, are at their dis posal every minute of the day. They are either too lazy to take a refreshing bath, or they forget all abont it. People do not sufficiently appreciate the many conveniences of a modern houso which we now enjoy. And it is not so many years since we had these conveniences. Last May there died in this city Mrs. Mary Mason Jones, aged eighty-rine. The year she married (1818) she built a residence at No. 122 Chambers street. New York, and that was the first resi- Jence in this city to have gas and a bath tub. At no time in the history of the world have people had so much comfort and Inxury as at the present day.—New York Epoch. A Telegraph Operator*. Kindness "It Isn’t often that a telegraph operatot stops to think of the message he receives or seuds,” said an old operator. "They are all of a size to him. But I remem ber one night during the late war I felt my eyes moisten—yes, moisten—as 1 read the following to Senator Fessenden: My son is sentenced to bo shot tomorrow morning at 0 for sleeping at his post. Will you kindly see President Lincoln at once and intercede till I can reach Washington to present evidence which will clearly prove my son's innocence? I knew that if the message was com pelled to wait its turn it would not reach Senator Fessenden till too late for any hope of reaching the president, to say nothing of getting a reprieve sent to the line of battle where the son was. “I said to myself: ‘Here is a hnman life banging by a thread. Shall I cut the thread by letting the message take its turn? No, I couldn't. 1 violated the rnlee and telegraphed the solemn mes sage to all the hotels in Washington till the senator was fonnd and the message safe in his bands. Word onme back that Senator Fessenden had obtained the re prieve, and 1 telegraphed the glad news to the poor old man np in Maine.”—Lew iston Journal. A Dugont Homs In the Southwest. Into tho face of one of the low verti cal earth walls of the broken land the homemaker cuts a hole as a Yankee farmer digB a cellar for a hillside barn. Though rarely larger than 10 by It feet on tho bottom, these cellariike holes are sometimes 12 by 18, with the depth of the hole as mnch as S or 0 feet, and some- times 18 by IS large, with the long way of the hole lying along the front of the natural earth wall. The digging completed, trees are cut to famish logs for building up the front of the home, and for use ns rafters, placed a foot or so apart over the top. The limbs of the trees, with some long grass from a moist place, if any can be fonnd, are nsed to make a rude thatch over the rafters, and then the sods, cut oat and carefully saved when the hole was dog, are placed on top of the thatch, while the earth from the hole is heaped on top of all into a grave shaped mound. A blanket Is hnng in the door way, or the cotton from the wagon hoops will serve, and there is the dug- ont home as cosy as the home of a dog or a wood chock.—John B. in Scribner 1 *. ■B Hue*Back Kirs English pills Are active, effective and pure.
