“A gentleman always lifts his hat to
a female acquaintance; it is not good
form to merely tonch the rim. In
accompanying two ladies a gentleman
walks at one side of both. As we
have frequently stated, a lady takes
a gentleman's arm; the reverse is bad
form.”

The Bachelor’s Reply.
A bachelor and maiden gay,
Were strolling by the lake one day.
Not long ago. •
The topics of the day discussed.
The maiden thought ’twas a chance to
thrust
A jest, and so
Said. “By the way. I’ve wondered long,
What prejudice is yours so strong
That you ne’er wed, .
While yet so many of your mends
Prefer that tie that seldom ends
Till one is dead.”
lie answering said, “Since you have
asked
Me plainly, I shall be unmasked.
Ana plainly tell
The reason why I deem it gain,
In single life thus to remain.
And lonely dwell.
“Hitched singly to life’s load is hard.
For often by the shafts we’re jarred,
As on we go.
But when once harnessed in a span,
Far worse than shafts then in the van.
The tongue sways so.”

young men of every denomination, who
have been baptized, bnt only communi
cants of the Episcopal church are al
lowed to hold an office in the chapter.
There are only two rules in the order,
—The rule of prayer and the the
rule of service. The rule of prayer is
that every member is to pray daily for
the spread of Christ’s Kingdom among
young men, and the rule of service is
that every member will faithfully en
deavor to bring at least one young man
to church every Suuday.

from Uncle Samuel.

Cut his Throat iu His Cell.
Dallas, Tex., Nov. 20.—Another
chapter in the bloody murder of Young
McLangdon, a prominent merchant, by
his partner, William G. Parrish, who
was enacted to-day. Parrish, who was
indicted for the killing, committed sui
cide at 1:30 o’clock in his cell at the
county jail. He cut his arm with a
small piece of glass and then cut his
throat with the same instrument and
bled to death. The act was committed
immediately after dinner. There was
no one around but Parrish and his
guard. While the latter was^ marching
up and down the corridor, not dreaming
that Parrish meditated another attempt
on his life, and for that reason failed to
hear Parrish smash a glass dish that had
contained a delicacy sent him by a
young lady. Parrish took a piece of
the glass and run it several times across
his throat, inflicting a deep Igash that
severed the windpipe. The first intima
tion the guard had of it was on see
ing Parrish drop to the floor. He died
in a few minutes.
