“ Them Fine Ladies."
BY JESSIE 5K. Llilllfli‘l .
, t'lifton was. a lovely, lonely littlc Village
by the sea, whose blue wave: tittnllt'll
themselve: in glistening futon against the
cliffs which gave a name te- tLu: Vill:gt~.
Far up on the heights overlooking the
waters,.was a tiny white cottage nestling
in the midst of a garden full of roses; the
salt-breezes from the sea below, floater!
lthrough'jhe open windows, or stirred the
crimson-hearted roses into a listless sway
ing and nodding to and fro. -
The inhabitants of Clifton were startled
one day by the news thatCIiff cottage brd'
been let for the summer to two young
, -- Indies, sisters, who were going to take
. ; possession soon.
“Deury me, Ann!” sighed one fisher-
man’s wife to another, "what’ll ins poor
folks do, wi’ a couple 0’ ladies ’ere ?
They’ll be ridin’ nround wi’ that fine
bosses, their dresses :1 trailin’ behin’ like
the waters at stem 0' a boat! They'll be
a turnin’ night. into day wi' thar music an'
dancin’ like the crowd nstook the cottage

“Yes,” joined in the other fisher wife.
“An’ mos‘ Iikelyvthey’ll be a takin’ our

“Wouldn’t. pay for ’em, nuther l" added
the first. “But we’ll just wait an' see
what they ar’ afore we judge ’em, Ann ‘1” ’
“There‘s my little Jinnie puddlin’in the
water again. What‘ll I ever do with that.

ful!" And the anxious mother went in
pursuit of her unruly daughter.
“Jane 13 quick wl’ her tongue, an’ sharp
at times, but she loves that little mite o’ a
child as well as any fine lady in the land,”
murmured Ann, turning again to the torn
nets she was'mending.
So, one beautiful sunny day, the new-
comers arrived at the village, where
they were eyed curiously by the few fish-
er-folk who had been left at home to keep
things in readiness for those who were
gone on the waters. _
“Arter all, they aren’t such dreadful
fine looking nus,” remarked one and anoth-
er that evening, as they talked over the
arrivals with those who had been absent.
“The tallest un’ purtiest one smiled at my
J innie, an’ patted Arnol’ Blake on top 0’
his pate.” . .
“No matter who it is. June, so long as
J innic is praised, they’re all right I” laugh-
ed one.
All unmiudful of the commotion they
had created, Adelaide Lawrence and her
sister, Jean, lived on at the cottage, enjoy-
ing the wonderful life of the sea as it
stormed at the foot of the clifi,sending up
showers 'of crystals, or tossing its waves
up on the golden sands, to curl and break
and full back again to the sea. The crisp
breeze dashed warm color into their
cheeks, its breath moist with the touch of
the ocean.. - ,
The life in the village went on as usual,
after a time; and the curiousily about
the strangers subsided a good deal when
nothing could be found against them ex-
cepting that they were strangers.
The villagers were always spoken kindly
to by both the young ladies; and the bare
footed children were given a smile or
gentle touch on their early heads.
But. an. eventful day came not two
months after thc'advent-of the strangers.
Dear little mischievous J innic had wan-
dered from her home, down on the bean-
tiful sands that shone like gold in the mid-
day sunshine. It was a very warm, stifl '
ing Iort‘of a day, and at last J innie, tired
of wandering over the sands, sunk down
at the foot of the gray cliffs to rest. The
waves rolled. and roared fur off—for the
tide was low—and their gurgle grew
fainter and fainter in Jinnic's ears. The
wild birds screamed along the cliffs, and
their cries grew fainter also. The breeze
grew softer, and died out altogether. And
with one flushed cheek resting on a dirty,
dimpled hand, and the other half-hidden
by the mass of curly yellow hair, Jinnie,
the fisher-wife‘s pride and darling, floated
‘ off into dreamland. . ‘
The tiny clouds in the western sky,
grew, large and larger till they rolled
fiercely across the heavens; the breeze re-
turned in the, shape of nmouning wind
that beatdrearily ngainst the waves, till
it lashed them into fury;
screamed hourscly at one another, asthey
swarmed over the rocks, away from The
tide that was sweeping in so swiftly.
“Come, Jeanie,” said Adelaide Law-
rence, to her sister, “let us go out on the
cliffs and watch the storm rise. They say
a thunder storm is'so grand and solemn on
the ocean; let us watch it as well as we
may." .
So, hand In hand, they went out in the
rising storm, and stood on the cliffs to-
gather.
“Adelaide! don’t go so near the edge I"
screamed Jean, for an ordinary tone of
voice was inaudible.
It was. a grand sight to look down a
. hundred feet to the rushing, foaming tide
that was slowly hearing in towards the
rocks and sand below. But suddenly Ad
' elaide Lawrence uttered such a cry of
horror that Jean pressed forward to her
side in alarm. And grasping her by the
arm. Adelaide pointed to the shore be-
neath. _
“I see nothing to frighten one," answefi'
el Jean.|
“You don’t 'r” criul Aielaidc. “There

low on the shore, with the tide closing
around her!”
Keeping fast hold of her sister‘s hand,
Jean leaned over to look.
True enough. The child had slept
soundly till the sands beyond were cover-
ed by the waves; and then had wukcd to
find herself shut in on thrte sides by the
lien, and behind her the grim, gray cliffs
frowned down forbiddingly. She was
running back and forth, eagerly looking
for some way of escape, wringing her
tiny hands-pitcoualy, when Jean looked
down at her.
“What'shull we do ?" she cried, turning
to her sister. “The men are all gone
away, and only the women left to help us.
We will send Jack for them, and you and
I will get a rope strong enough to bear a
heavy weight. and fasten it to something
very strong!” Adelaide was calm and
cool.
“But who will go down to
Jean.
“I will,” answered her sister coolly.

the news. In the meantime, Adelaide
and Jean found 'a heavy coil of rope and
dragged it to the cliff.
About a dozen steps from the edge was
a sharp rock rising, tall and slender,
lubove the others. Around it Adelaide
coiled part of the rope. and fastened it to-
gether firmly.
“But, Adelaide,” cried Jean, fearfully,
“suppose it should slip up and—-"
, “It will not slip!" answered her sister
quietly; "for it mustbe held down. Will
they moor come?"
“You'must not go down by that I" went
on Jean excitedly- "What is that little
child to us, that you should risk 'your life
—and such a beautiful life—for it? You
cannot go—thc wind is too strong; and
the rocks are so sharp, and—"
“Jean!” with flashing-eyes. “You
don‘t know what youaye saying? It is
only because you are afraid for me, 1
know; but sister, mine, that little child
is as much to us and moretn its mother
than we can (gin-5.9." A ml with busy
‘hautls she went. on fastening lll‘ rope to
her slender waist.
{Iran was desperate. She wcnt bani; to;

“Adelaide—princess Adelaide, don't go!
What will become of me, if you do? We
are the only ones left—you and I. And if
you throw your life away for this child,
what will I do? Let the child's careless
mother go,—only you stay with met"
Adelaide looked up with a brave smile,
“Jcnn,— m‘y bonnie Jean,” she said;
:“wc willdo our best and trust the rest to
God. Let us not say any more about it,
you would do the name if I were not here.
They are coming now! Poor éuna I"
It was a beautiful and awful scene.
- The slender, girlish figure surrounded
by eager, excited, white~faccd, wild eyed,
women, with their short dresses, bare feet
and disordered hair; the sharp gray cliffs
which the waves were leaping to reach ;
the terrified child on the sands below;
the black, winds-wept heavens over all.
In the midst of the wild scene stood the
girl on the cliff, the rope alone to hold her
back from death; but with aface so grand
with a brave, heroic purpose; its clear
hazel eyes and determined mouth,—thut
the rough fisher—women were filled with
a sense of awe that had never been felt
before.
Only for a moment, and then as a swift
flash of lightning cut through the black
clouds in the east; and the thunder crash-
ed, the, brave—hearted, sweet-faced girl
started on her dangerous undertaking.
The hands of the women were harden-
ed by the rough work they had done all
their lives, and well prepared for this
roughest of all their work—lowering u
fellow-creature—a’ sister woman—down
over the edge of the cliff. But a child
was waiting below, with the waves rush-
ing hungrily toward it, and they steadied
their hands for the work of rescue.
It was a fearful task. The rough winds
whirled around her, tossing her loosened
hair, and dashing the cold spray into her
face; the wild waves leaped up toward
her with hoarse shouts of triumph ; the
child below knelt on a wave-swept rock
and waited with wide eyes and parted
lips ; the white-faced women above watch-
ed breathlessly.
Jean’s hands had been cut deep by the
rope, but she did not know it. Adelaide
was hanging between life and death!
What's. shout of delight echoed through
the storm, from a score and more of we
men, as the brave girl touched the rock
and landed safely beside the tiny child!
But :she was growing exhausted, they
knew that, because the waves swept her
from the rock ‘just as she caught the child
in her arms.
It was harder to raise them up than to
lower the girl alone, for the rocks must be
guarded against, and with a child in one
arm it was not easily done. But the
waves swept over the sands and leaped up
the cliffs in vain. Adelaide Lawrence
and little Jinnie Neal were safe!
Such tender hands as there were among
those rough voiced women! Such sym-
pathetic heurts as best under the rough
clothes I .
Adelaide vvas usaint in their eyes, such
a heroine us they had never seen!
The storm raged fiercely. The winds
shrieked, the mud waves roared; but no
one heeded them. What an excitement
there was when the men returned from
their fishing grounds. No one was miss-
ing, and there was joy through the’whole
village; while hearts beat full of love for
the orphan girls.
There were no more disparaging re-
marks about “line ladies” after‘that. for
brave hearts: will win love.
And after Adelaide was married, her
husband bought Cliff Cottage where they
spend every summer. ,
While Jean loves no one so well as her
sister, her beautiful “princess Adelaide,"
—no not even her own husband. '

The Sun Cholera Mixture;
Now that it has been ascertained that
the cholera which has appeared-in Egypt
is the genuine Asiatic article from which
the worst is to be feared should its march

in great demand by correspondents, who
write to the editor as if he were a person-

more than forty years what. is known as
“the Sun cholera medicine” has stood the
test of experience as the best remedyfor
looseness of the bowels ever yet devised.

York Journal of Commerce, “no one who
has this by him and takes it in time will

srx nouns IN CHICAGO
After a day's ride through the rich agri-
cultural pluins of Iowa, we are on our re-
turn trip, again at Chicago, the great and
rapidly growing metropolis of Western
,America.
Looking upon this large city with its
magnificent buildings. and its vast net-

Chicago was made a city, and after some
34 years of unparalleled prosperity it ex
perienced a severe drawback In the terri:
ble fire of 1871, whichdestroycd more than
17,000 buildings, rendering homeless 98,4
500 people. .
The scenes of that occasion are now viv»
idly set forth before the sufferers, as they
call to mind the terrible ordeal through
which they had to pass. Stid a gentle-
man and his wife to me while speaking of
that fire,“we saw that our storemust go—
but we had a hodsc left ua,a few blocks
distant. It was but ushort time before
that too had to succumb to the devouring
element, and we were left destitute.” This
was the fate of thousands It is esti-
mutcdthttt the font! losses occasioned by
that fire could not have been less than
. $190,000,000 of which $44,000,000 was '
recovered on insurance, though. many of
the insurance companies in consequence
become bankrupt all over the country.
The business of the city was not al-
lowed to. remain stagnantfor any-length
of time. Building was q'uickly resumed,
and in u very brief space of time. a large
part of the. burnt district was built up.
It is now 11 years since that fearful event,
and scarce a vestige of the calamity ap‘-
pears. .The great area of ill square utilrs
1'! all covered with buildings, many of
which are magnificent.
The City Hall and County Court House
is a grand structure occuping an entire
block. Then there is the U. S. Post Of-
fice and Custom House, covering, with its
sidewalks and approaches, another entire
square. This is the largest building of
its kind in the country, with theexcep-
‘tiou of the New York Post Office. The
Palmer House is claimed to be the largest
and best furnished hotel in the world. It.
is a fire-proof building, costing tvfo and a
quarter million dollars, and the furniture
cost $550,000 additional. The new Singer
Building has a Splendid exterior, and is
said to be beyond question the finest
mercantile palace known. It is 160 by 150
feet, and six stories high. surmounted
by a bold mansard roof, audio fire proof.
A brief sketch of all the prominent
buildings public and private, which in a
few hours stay came under our notice
would makcthis article entirely too long;
suffice it to say that many of the bank
buildings and palatial storesare perfectly
clegunt,—while the Exposition building
is a fine afiuir and commanding in its gen-
eral appearance.
Chicago is situated on the west shore of
Lake Michigan, lying about fourteen feet
above the lake. Its site originally was on
a dead level with the lake, but its grade
has been raised by thecitizens. ‘
The Chicago river with its north and
south branches permeates the city In va-
rious directions, while the streets cross it
by swing bridges, and in twoinstances as
at Washington and La Salle Streets tun-
nels have been run under the river for the
passage of the vehicles and pedestrians.
On- this river, which does not appear much
larger than a wide canal, the larger class
of vessels are floating: while steam lugs
are constantly plying, the bridges being
built so high that many can pass under
them. There are large quantities of ves-
selsut the- wharvcs, and bridge tenders
find sufficient to employ them in opening
and closing them so frequently.
During our stop of some few hours at
Chicago, it became necessary to attend to
an item of business. On going to the of:
fice of the party-it was quite n surprise to
be greeted cordially, and to be recognized
by name by the gentlemanly proprietor of
the establishment. A postal previously
sent, and a photograph nee seen, Was all
the introduction. in t ease, yet to Mr.
and Mrs. Tunaill we. were indebted for
many kind attentions in giving general .dl-
rections relative to the city, but more es-
pecially for his polite invitation to accom-
puny them in a. carriage rideto the Lake,
thus enabling us to see the city to much
better advantage in ashort. space of time.
The water works with the massive engines
constantly pumping. The crib, as it is
called,'two miles from shore, where the
,cool and clear. water is taken from Lake
Michigan. To know that a tunnel runs
out under the lake to this crib, and from
that source the supply emanates. The
ride on the lake shore , drive, and through
Lincoln Park, on the borders of this lake,
are all objects well Worth seeing and
knowing. '
The time is up, and with thanks to our
friends for kind attention, we must go by
the train, leaving unseen man of the at-
tractioiis of the city, such he Union
Stock Yard, which is the largest in extent
and the beat patronized live stock mart in
the world—4nd leave. also, many other
places of interest.

Launch of‘ the Guion Mail‘
‘ Steamer “Oregon.”
Mews. John ‘ Elder & 00., Fairfield,
hunched on Saturday the “Oregon,” a
magnificent and powerful vessel for the
Guion Line of American mail steamers.
This vessel is designed as an improvement
'on the Alaska, which/is at present the
fastest vessel on the Atlantic. She has
finer lines than the famous “Greyhound,"
and as she has also considerably more
horse power, it is expected that she will
excel the performance of that vessel. The
dimensions of the Oregon are as follows:
Irehgth over all, 520 feet; breadth 54 feet ;
depth 40 feet 9 inches; the gross tonnage
is about 7,500 tons: The vessel has in all
five decks. The first or promenade deck,
extending nearly the whole length and to
the full breadth of the vessel, is (with the ,
exception of the parts forming the turtle
decks at the ends) reserved for the use of
the first-class anticancer-v. On this deck
, , , . . rmidships is placed the ladies) lmudoir, a
I ms Is ,
Several Indian tents are set-n in '
liar: spacious apartnwnl. On the second
or upper- dcck tin: cabins for the
ollicera and engineers. the: Hooking ulnar:
also the hitch-
eus, bakeries, scuilmies, and other offices.
The extremities of the upper deck are
well protector] by extensive turtle decks,
that at the forward part extending to
about 100 feet aft from the stern. On the
third or main deck are the cabins for the
passengers, with the dining saloons, ladies
retiring room, and other accommodation.
On this deck accommodation is provided
for 340 first class, 92 second class, and 110
third-class passengers. The first-class
state-rooms are replete" with all the
fittings usual in the highest class of
‘tlt‘.
. passenger steamers. The first-class dir-
ging saloon, which is placed in the midship
part of the vessel forward-of the machin-
ery space, is a large and magnificent
apartment, 05 feet long by 54 feet wide,
and 9 feet in height, and it is an arranged
that all the first-class passengers can dine
together. Ample light and ventilation
are given to the saloon by n cupolu 25
feet long by 15 feet. wide, extending up
to a large skylight, which can be kept
open even in the stormie;t weather. The
total height of the saloon at the cupola is
over 20 feet. Numerous large lights ate
also fitted along the sides of the saloon.
The state-rooms throughout the ship are
so arranged that nearly all of them are
fitted for two: passengers. only, a great
luxury and convenience to travelers who
prefer to take a room to themselves. . The
second-clues saloon is situated shaft the
engine-room, and it will be fitted up so as
to lend to the comfort of the passengers.
The whole of the after part above the
jigger or the after-mast will be fitted up'
in a substantial manner for the stecrage
passengers. The greatest care has been
taken in the lighting. ventilation, and
sanitary arrangements throughout. The
fourth or lower deck can be almost en-
rtlrcly‘used for eteerage passengers or for
cargo, as required. Do the deck alone no-
commodation can be necessary be provid-
ed for 1000 passengers. The fifth or orlop
deck is used entirely for cargo. The
complete adoption of the electric light on
the incandescent principle will be made,
adding greatly to the general effect of the
tasteful decorations throughout. The Or-
egon is divided into 11 water-tight com-
partments, and is placed on the Admiralty
list for war purposes if required. V
The vessel has four masts, with yards
on the two foremost. Steam steering gear
is placed in the wheel-house under the
after turtle deck, with connection for
steering from the bridge uniiz‘ships, and
powerful hand-steering gear is also fitted
\in the after wheel-house; while a steam,
capstan Windlass is fitted forward for the
efficient working of the vessel. Five large
steam-winches are fitted at the cargo
hatches for the prompt ‘loading and un-
loading of cargo. '1‘ 'n large boats are
arranged on the promenade deck, as far
as possible beyond the risk of damage
from the item. In fact, the vessel is pro-
vided with all the most approved appli-
ances for navigating her, and for promot-
ing the comfort and safety of the passen-
gets.
Thc'eugines for this vessel, which are
of 12,000 I. n. P., are compound, and have
three inverted cylinders, one high press—
um. 70 inches diameter, and two low
pressure, each 104 inches diameter. The
high pressure cylinder is placed between
the two low pressure cylinders, and all
are adapted for. a stroke of 6 feet, The
valves are of the equilibrium piston type,
and are placed between the cylinders.
The reversing of the engines is affected
by onclof Messrs. Brown Bros & Co’s
steam and hydraulic reversing engines.
Tue crank shaft is built and made of Vick- .
er‘a crucible cast-steelThe tunneland pro-
peller shafts are of Vicker’s steel. The sur-
face condenser is placed at the back of the
engines; it'is divided into two parts, each
of 'which forms an independent condenser
for the corresponding low pressure cylin-
der. The water is supplied to the con-
denser by two large, centrifugal pumps.
The boilers (nine in number) for supplying
steam to the engines are entirely made of
steel plates. They are double-ended, and
arranged in‘three groups, with athwurt-
ship stokeholes. Each boiler is 10 feet,
6 inches in diameter, and 16 feet 9 inches
long, having eight Fox’s patent corrugated
furnaces, making the total number of fur-
naces for the nine boilers 72.
An immense crowd of people gathered
in the yard and on the opposite side of the
river to witness the launch. When the
vessel began to leave the ways the spec-
tators raised a cheer, which was prolonged
until the ship was fairly in the water.
The christening ceremony was gracefully
performed by Miss Cargill, daughter of
Mr. D. S. Cargill. After the launch a
number of ladies and gentlemen assembled
in the model room, there cake and wine
were served. Mr. Pearce, in proposing
success to the “Oregon,” remarked that
he thought she would be a faster ship than
the Alaska, which meant that she would
be faster than any other ship in the world
(Applause) She was another step in the
. progress that was being made in the ships
that were being put on the Atlantic
service—ships that were following up
what his firm had some years ago set
themselves to do—namely, to put on what
was called a seven day’s passage Iiue be-
tween this country and America. (Ap-
plause) Mr. Guion, he knew, would not
be sutis'fledwith a seven days’ passage,
and he was quite gore that he should not
be satisfied himself. (Applause) He
believed the passage was to be done in
very much less time. In this age of pro-
gress he thought they‘might calculate that
all the ships in the future—he did not any
individual ships—but all new lines, and
come of the old ones, must put on ships
that would be in advance, so far as speed
was concerned, of anything that was at
present built or building. (Applause)
There was another matter that yequired
attention, although it did not concern
him so much. He meant the internal ar-
rangements of the' chip; he thought he
ought to say , the domestic arrangements.
Hc'thought that passengers must look for
.9 great advance in that department.
They would have to get larger cabins and
bitter living on board the ships; they
would have to get more room, more light,
more ventilation, and they, on the other
band, would have to pay more for it. .
(Laughton) These things must come
about, and in the ship that had just been
launched they had endeavored to carry
out the preliminaries of these arrangements
so far as these lay with his firm as ship-
builders and engineers.‘ They left the
rest to Mr. .Guion to do, and they believed
' he wduld do it, and mark progress in that
direction as fast as they were marking
progress in the departments of shipbuild-
ing and engineering. (Applause) Mr:
S. B. Guion replied. He expressed his
satisfaction with the manner in which the
launch had been carried out. Every care
had been taken, first in the building of the
ship. and then putting her into the water
. —in fact,n finer launch could not have bet-n
anticipated. (Applause) chgrccd with
Mr. Pearce in his remarks as to the ad-
vancement they must still look for Inthc'
speed and internal arrangements of vessels
em oncd in the Atlantictrude. His firm
would do their utmost to rcdttcc the time
occupied in the passage, and to increase
the comfort of the passengers during the
’voynge. l-le rccollccted very well when

Attacking Garfield’s Metnory.
With characteristic mnlignity the New
York Sun renews its assault upon the
.memory of the late President Garfield,
devoting the entire first page of its issue
yesterday to an attempt to prove, first,
that his nomination was brought about
through deliberate duplicity toward Sec-
retary Sherman; second, that he secured
money for the republican national com-
mittee by corrupt pledges of various
kinds, including one to Jay Gould to ap-
point. Stanley Mathews to the supreme
bench in consideration of a subscription
of $150,000;. and third, that he accepted
pecuniary assistance during the campaign
from the star route men with the full
knowledge of the dishonest practices by
which they‘wcre making themselves rich.
All 9f ,thisthc; Sun prints under the head
of .“An Abstract‘of the Budget of Stephen
W. Dorsey,” plainly aiming to have the
reader infer that the charges are printed
on Dorsey’s authority. As it matter of
fact the whole statement is nothing more
nor less than a stale rehash of the cam-
paign charges of three years ago. There
is not a single new thing in the whole
seven columns of stuff, and nothing but
that has again and again bud its falsehood
exposed. The attempt of the Sun to
palm efif upon its readers these rehabili-
tated Blunders as being an f‘abstract of
Dorsey’s budget" is quite in keeping with
the falsehood .of the whole matter, and
simply illustrates how utterly unscrup-
lous the Sun is in its hatred of the mem-
ory of the dead president. Mr. Dunn is
evidently following out the principle that
“a lie Well stuck to is as good as *the
truth," and hopes? by constant :iteration
of his slanders to induce the American
people to believe them. He will not.
succeed, however.= As the assaults ‘upon
General Garfield’s reputation while he was
living only served toincreusc the devotiOu
of the people to him, so will these slan-
ders upon his memory only serve to en-
dear it all the more to fair-minded, putri-
otic citizens. The'New York Sun years
ago achieved the reputation of being the
most malevolentiy disposed newspaper in
the country, the mostrunacrupulous in its
personal assaults.‘ The persistency with
it hassought to defile the grave of James
A Garfield constitutes the cap sheaf of a
record that is a disgrace to American
journalism—Palladium. -
“ There’s a Hen On.”
Everybody is stepping softly round
Ohio. Mr. Henry Watterson, who a little
' while ago was bent on turning all the pro-
tection fowls out of the barn-yard, says.
“Never mind about that, S-h-hl G-o
s-l-o-w! There‘su hen on I" Mr. Tilden
whispers behind his hand, “Wuitufew
minutes. I'm setting a hen. in Ohio."
'The word has gone around that “there‘s a
hen on," and all hands aré awaiting the
incubatiori. Meantime an old rooster
named Thurman, strutting by the nest in
which so many unhatched hopes are lying,
remarks to a jealous old hen named Ward,
“How absurd! Why, that Houdly’s a
mere pullet, Durhin, compared with you.”
To which Durhin with a flutter, f‘Never
mind; next yourI give ’em fair notice
I’ll sit on an ostrich egg of my own, if I
break a leg getting up to it.” And that
is, the present situation. The Homily
pallet “on"a promiscuous lot of goose
eggs, pigeonla eggs, crockery eggs and
hard boiled eggs, the Thprmun rooster
viewing the performance with coutcmpt,
and disgusted old hen Durbin Ward

Meantime Henry Wnttersun waves the
noisy world away with u hoarse whisper,

Trouble with Young Aniebica
in New Jersey. .
In New Jersey at law prohibiting the
sale of cigarettes to minors under 16 went
into effect on July 1. A little fellow
about 8 years old entered a cigar store on
I———F_-=
"Gimme an Old Judge."
The clerk eyedhim sharply and replied,
“The Legislature says you’re too young
to smoke, Johnny."
“All right," the urchin responded, as
he pocketed his cent and picked the ram
nants of several cigarettes from the floor.
Placing one in his month, he _strutted out
remarking, uDer Legislature can’t stop me
from smoking old butts anyhow.”
Mr. Samuel S. James, Warren, Ind., was
said to have incuruglo consumption. He took
only eight bottles of Dr. Wishart’s Pine Tree

Where soft clouds hung like flocks of ac

The flowers drooped with leaves shut to

While waveless, brazen, shone the r
