A Woman’s Wit
Many of tho first bottlers of Illi
nois were rude in spoeoli and rough
in manner. Money ws scarce with
them, and service was paid for iu
produce. Gov li used to illus
trate those incidents of frontier life
by the following anecdote:
One day there came to his office a
young man accompanied by a young
womau.
Be you tho squirt? asked tho
manly youth.
Yes, sir.
Can you lie the knot for us right
away?
Yes, sir.
How much do you charge?
One dollar is the legal foe, sir.
Will you take your fee iu bees
wax?
Yes, if you can't pay cash,
Weil, go ahead and tie tho knot,
anil I'll fetch iu tho wax.
No, said tho squire, thinning
there was a good chance for a little
fun; bring iu the beeswax first, and
then I’ll marry you.
Reluctantly tho youth wout out
to where the horse was hitched,
which Darby uud Joau fashion they
had ridden, and brought the wax in
a sack. On being weighed its val
ue was found to bo only 60 cents.
Wal, said the anxious groom, tie
the knot and I’ll fetch more wax next
week.
No, sir, I don’t trust; that is against
the rules of Ibis office.
Slowly the disappointed youth turn
ed to go out saying, ‘Come, Sal, let’s
g°-’
I say, mister, answered Sal, with a
woman's wit, can’t you marry us as far
as the wax will go?
Yes, I can and will replied the squire
laughing ; and he did !
Sormon for the Young-
Iu the struggle of life we liavo
eonstaut.iioed of calmness, patience
audjeourag''. Tho nood of this was
never more beautifully expressed
thuu in in"a lottor of Ary Scheffer,
tho celebrated French artist, to his
daughter, iu whhich he says:
Dear daughter, strive to lie of
good courage, to bo goutlu-hofirlcd;
these arc iho true qualities for wo
man. Troubles everybody must ex
pect. There is but one way ol
looking at fate—whatever that be,
whether blessings or nffiiutious —to
behave with dignity under both.
Wo must not lose h art, or it will
be worse both for ourslves aud for
those whom wo love. To struggle,
and again and again to renew the
conlliet —that is life’s inheritance.

Hoys is a biped. A biped is a two

mal that requires more training than a
horse, and more beating than an ox.
Nearly all boys i-i out of jail, but some
of them ought to be penned or cag
ed, or staked out to graze. I have
heard that a good way to treat them
was to “put them in a barrel and feed
them through the bung-hole,” but I

About a week ago Texas was struck
by a hail storm, in which the hail was
big as hen’s eggs, and a man was
killed; now it has had a second storm
in which the hailstones were as big as
a man’s fist, and not only killed sever
al men, but wrecked several houses.
If hail continues to grow at this pace
in Texas, by midsummer it will be
like boulders which in Rip Van Win
kle’s day the denizens of the Catskills
threw about in thunder storms.
Pleasure is seldom found where
it is sought. Our highest blazes
of gladness are commonly kindled
by unexpected sparks.

Why “Baby Mine” Fainted.
Once, when Mmo, Rontz aud her
female minstrels were performing
lin San Francisco, a well-known
■ Front street merchant- one of the
front orchestra seat brigade, whose
bead was more clear than level,
waited a.touud tho stage entrance
to tho Standard Theatre, after the
performance, trying to conceal
handsome bouquet under his ulster.
For a long time he kept pouring
ut the different specimens of Mine
Reulz s sirous ub they put up their
umbrellas and trotted away in the
rain. After wuitiug patiently for
about an hour, ho upproachod an
individual, with a rod scarf and a
slouched hat, who stood smoking a
cigar at too entrance, and said:
Can you tell mo, sir, if Miss Chlo
rine has gouo home yet?
On, yes, been gone half an hour,
replied the slouch hat party choor
ffilly, those flowers for lit-r?
Well ’er—um—yos.
I'll give "’em tojher—soo hor lat
er,! said tho obliging man.
Will you? That's very kiud sure
ly.
Oh, not at ell, said the man r
smelling the bouquet with tlio air
of a connoisseur. Anything else?
Well—ahem! yes. Just give hor
this pair of oar rings.
Certainly. What name shall I
8 ay?
Just *ay that Baby Mine —she'll
understand —scuds love, and says
2;i : 0, at the same place to-morrow.
I'll just mako a motu. of that,
said the rod tio man, writing on his
shirt cuff, 2:30 same place to-mor
row. All right. Anything else?
No, that's all Sure you'll soa
her this evening?
OK, certain.
And you'll got a chance to speak
to her where there is nobody

Oh, doad sure. You seo I'm hor

Baby Mine fainted, and wna sent
to bis home in a hack.

A member of the Legislature wh>
voted against the purchase of Hud

Texas by the State gave the following
unique reasons : “Two hundred and
fifty dollars is too much lor those oil
paintings. Oil ain’t so dear as all
that, for I bought some the other day
for two bits a quart. Besides, chro
mos are a heap cheaper. I bought a
chromo of Wcllingion crcssing the

half. None of the pictures of these-
