Taking a Mean Advantage of a Truthflnl
Mau.
He got on the platform of a Woodward
avenue car yesterday morning, and had a
briefconversrtion with the driver b fore en
tering. When he sat down, the subject of
conversation had already been opened. It
was about the state of the thermometer.
“1 looked at mine as 1 left the house,”
remarked a shivered passenger, “and it
marked twelve degrees below.”
“What! only twelve below?” exclaimed
another. “ Must be something wrong there.
Mine showed fifteen,and was going down at
that.” . , „
“Yours must have been in a warm place,”
said the third passenger. _ “I have a very
reliable thermometer, and it showed a little
over sixteen below as I took the car.”
Two or three others had their say, and
when the cold had been brought down to
twenty degrees below the mean man rose up
and said:
“Gentlemen, please wait a moment.”
He opened the front door and the ther
mometer he had hung up was handed in to
him. He took it and passed it from man to
man, that all might see. It registered ex
actly seven below. N>t a word was said for
a long time, but the silence was at last
broken by the shiverish man saying :
“Well, if that thing is to be sprung on I
truthful men in this fashion, I’ll not ride
on these cars again this winter.”
A Five Cent Failure.
Hartford Post.
Jimmy Tuflboy is rather inclined to de
mand his rights of the head of the house.
Sometimes he gets them; more often he
doesn’t. He had determined to pass a half
day on the ice dedicating his new skates to
the god Zero and laming his legs for a week.
His obdurate parents objected. Jimmy, who
is up to snuff, had read of the dynamiters,
and prepared a deeply meditated revenge.
He had one five cent fire cracker left over
from the fourth of July. He exploded it
beneath the baby’s cradle, scaring the infant
out of breath and filling the house full of
sulphurous smells.
“You horrid boy,” said his mother; “how
dare you?”
“I guess you’ll let me go skating now,
won’t you?”
“Skating! Not another skating pond shall
you see until next June.”
Thus was revolution turned upon itself.
She Was a Good Little Girl.
Arkansas Uraveller,
‘■Now, Minnie,” said a mother to her 4
year-old daughter, “I want you to play with
your little brother while I am down town.”
’‘An’ what will you bring me?” “Never
mind; I will bring you something. And
now, mind you, if he wants to play with your
toys you musn’t cry.” “Nome.” When the
lady returned, the little girl ran to her and
said: “I played with my little brother. Now
what did you bring me?” “Mamma brought
you an orange. Where’s little brother?’’
“He’s sleep. Gimme the orange.” She took
the orange and said: “ W iivu ne grabbed my
dishes, I didn’t cry.” “You didn’t? Why,
you are a good little girl.” “Yessutn, an’
■when he grabbed my doi l Ididn’t cry eiver.”
‘ You didn’t?” “Nome.” “What did you
say?” “Nullin’, but I knocked him down
with the little chair.”
He Must Have Bern Insane.
From the Judge.
The tree was there, the branch was wll
ing, the rope had its noose ready for busi
ness. Then Judge Lynch asked (merely as
st matter of fun, you know), “Prisoner, have
you anything to say in your defense. You
have full liberty to speak M but cut it short.”
Prisoner—“ Gentlemen, I plead insanity.”
(Dreadful laughter in the congregation and
the beginning of a rush.)
Judge Lynch --“lnsanity! well may I
never tip another —but hold on, boys. Any
man so dodrotted insane as to try the in
sanity dodge on this court must be insane,
Let the d—d idiot go.”
Next summer’s Plans Spoiled.
Philadelphia Call.
Iceman: No, my dear, we can’t go to
liurope next summer, as we intended.
Loving Wife: Well, no matter; I dreaded
the sea voyage, anyhow, and Saratoga will
do as well. By the way that diamond neck
lace you promised me —”
|> ’‘Don’t speak of it. I can’t buy it; we
can’t go to Saratoga, or anywhere else; and
we must leave this house and get a cheaper
one.”
“Mercy on me! Has the ice crop
failed ? ’’
“No, that’s just the trouble. It hasn't
tailed.”
Whatever may or may not be said of
Oeorge Francis Train, no one who has ever
met him will deny that the erratic gentle
man is remarkably quick at repartee. It
was during a lecture he gave in Chicago
some years ago that he exclaimed: “ Every
man lias his price.” “What is your price,
Mr. Train?” cried a voice from the gallery.
Quick as a Hash the lecturer faced the ques
tioner and exclaimed: “Fifty cents admis
sion; children (pointingout the owner of the
voice, while the entire audience focussed its
Xaze at the astonished person in line of Mr.
Train’s index finger) half price !”—Har
per’s Weekly.

slaughter of prices. Everybody has to do it, whether he wants toor not. Now, there arejust
i two wavs of being economical: One is to buy fewer things, and the other to pay lower
prices We prefer that our patrons should adopt the second method.
; SILKS AM> VELVKTS.
I At prices named last week, all were astonished. Again we’ll sell Canary and Ottoman
Silks at seventy-five cents a yard. Other houses would name them as bargains at a dollar a
vard Black Grosgrain at seventy-live cents a yard, the former price of which wasadollar
and a quarter. Evening shades In all colors at ridiculously low prices. Velvets in all the
fashionable shades at prices that would actually seem absurd. Look 1 seeing is believing :

Our business of late has assumed enormous proportion in this department. We still
want to Increase it. and for this reason we shall display on our front counters as many dif

CLOCKS.
Do you want one? If so, now is the time to buy Cloaks, no matter how fine you may

be afforded by people with very little spare money. we have no hesitation in saying no
matter what kind of a Cloak you want—Newmarket, Imitation Sealskin or Russian Circu
lar—we can promise to sell it to you for less money by half than you can purchase next sea
son. We are going to sell our stock of Cloaks if we lose one-half of the money they cost.
Our stock of Misses’and Children’s Cloaks must also be reduced. Nevermind who makes
the loss, it is sufficient for you to know that the Cloaks are for sale at our store at prices that
' do not pay for the stuff that’s in them.
