THE PUNCTUATION POINTS.
Six little marks from school are we,
Very important, all agree,
Filled to the brim with mystery,
Six little marks from school:
One little mark is round and small,
But where it stands the voice must fall,
At the close of a sentence, all
Place this little mark from school.
One little mark, with gown a-trailing,
Holds up the voice, and, never failing,
Tells you not long to pause when hailing
This little mark from school :
If out of breath you chance to meet
Two little dots both round and neat,
Pause, and these tiny guardsmen greet—
These little marks from school :
When shorter pauses are your pleasure,
One trails his sword—takes half the measure,
Then speeds you on to seek new treasure,
This little mark from school: ;
One little mark, ear shaped, implies
“Keep up the voice—await replies;
To gather information tries,
This little mark from school: 2?
One little mark, with an exclamation,
Presents itself to your observation,
And leaves the voice at an elevation,
This little mark from school : !
Six little marks! Be sure to heed us;
Carefully study, write and read us ;
For you can never cease to need us,
Six little marks from school.
—Julia M. Colton, in St. Nicholas.
CELY’S VALENTINE CAUSED TROU-
BLE.
“Valentines. Yes, sir. Comic or senti-
mental.
‘Neither. Plush,’’ said Hen Shaw, un-
certainly, looking around for his compan-
ion, who was flattening her nose against
the glass pane of the shop door. ‘‘Here,
Cely, come an’ help me choose ; I thought
that was what you come for.”’
‘I come for the sake of your sweet face,
Hen, dear, an’ nothin’ else,”’ observed
Miss Slater, for the double delight of mak-
ing the saleswoman look interested and
Hen uncomfortable. ‘“‘An’ when a slob I
don’t like passes by without seein, me’ I
‘xpect I'll stop an’ make a few faces at
him long’s IT own myself. Now I’ll tend
to the valentines. What kind ? Oh, sen-
timental, of course, though they’re the
comicalest of all, the way I look at it.”
‘‘The way you look is cross-eyed, Cely,’’
said Hen, in high good spirits because a
dazzling combination of pink plush, white
lace, gold cord and chromo, which latter
when lifted up disclosed a printed verse,
proved very much cheaper than he had
thought when admiring it from the window
outside.
“I'll take this, I guess—if you think the
po’try fills the bill.”
‘She can write somethin’ better if it
don’t,”’ said Cely, poking her nose near-
sightedly into the nest of lace and plush,
wherein she read
If you take not this valentine amiss,
*Twill give me great delight ;
For its acceptance will include a kiss
Upon the first fair night.
‘Yes, it’s got as much sense in it as love
po’try ever has ; and there’s another thing
—it does to send to either a girl or a fel-
Jer.”
‘She won’t be passin’ it on to no fel-
Jer,”’ said Hen somewhat haughtily, where-
at Cely’s depraved little heart hugged itself
for the rangling insinuation it had uncon-
sciously conveyed. He directed the enve-
lope to ‘‘Miss Mame Morgan’’ with fearful
and wonderful contortions of the pen, in-
tended to disguise his hand, while Cely
quietly picked out a small lace-paper val-
entine, paid five cents for it, and had dis-
posed of it in the cavernous depths of her
pocket by the time Hen was ready to leave
the shop with her.
“Who was the slob?” he inquired as
they turned their footsteps down South
street.
“What slob 27
‘You know well enough. You was
standing at the door chewing your tongue
at him.”
“Oh, him ! The world’s full of ’em so
how was I to know what splecial slob you
meant? Why, that was Mame’s perticke-
lar friend, Mug Farrelly.’
‘““Mame’s! Yourn, you mean. I seen
him goin’ into your house twict last
week.”
‘An’ youse did’t see Mame goin’ in
More’n twict did you ? asked Miss Slater,
with sarcastic solicitude. ‘Pity ’hout
your peepers, Hen; one o’ these days
Mame’ll be walkin’ into church with
somebody else right under ’em an’ you not
know it till you’re told. Dollars to dough-
nuts Mug Farrelly’s out to buy hera valen-
tine his own little lone self.’’
And with this Parthian dart whizzing
behind’ her Miss Slater skipped into the
house and up to her own room, and she
took down the crimping pins she had
worn at work all day and ran a broken
piece of comb through the curls thus pain-
fully produced till they looked like silk
ravelings, she murmured to the mirror, the
only confidant she wholly trusted : ‘‘Cele
Slater, I do believe you’ve got the devil in
you now, if never before.’
Diabolic possession was apparently rath-
er a pleasant sensation. Cely chuckled
frequently as she put the last touches to
her evening toilette. Just why she was
charmed at the prospect of a row be-
between Mug Farrelly and the pugnacious
Hen no one would be silly enough to ask.
How many men would ever have gone to
war and killed one another if their Helens
and Brunhildes and Guineveres had not
privately loved to look on at a fight? Miss
Slater, had her opinion been asked, would
have firmly answered “Nit!” She liked
Hen, firmly believed hinr capable of doing
some of the earth-wiping so sorely needed
in Philadelphia streets with Mr. Farrelly’s
prostrate form, unselfishly wished him to
get the glory of the deed, and last, but not
least, loathed Mug Farrelly. Had not
that great, hulking lump of unregenerate
masculinity, the alternate butt and bully
of the whole neighborhood, pestered her
with his unwelcome attentions! No one
but the hawk-eyed Hen had as yet noticed
his visits, which she was helpless to stop ;
but her horror of another such ordeal of
teasing as had followed on the Hughey
Donovan episode made her anxious that,
like Sir Boyle Roche’s rat, he sheuld be
nipped in the bud before anyone saw him
brewing in the air. And on what pretext
he got his drubbing was to her leathery
little conscience a matter of profound in-
difference.
*‘So’s he gets socked, that’s all I care
for,” she murmured to herself. Conse-
quently, when Mame ran over to her house
on the next morning, that of February 14th,
to exhibit her two valentines with many
blushes and giggles, she lit her fuse by
loudly admiring the lace-paper one.
** ’Spose Hen sent it, didn’t he ?
‘Hen ?’’ Mame looked surprised. “Why,
Id’no. I thought he sent me this here
han’some one, with the silk lace. Guess
you haven’t looked good at it. Ain’t that
his writin’ ?”’
Cely scanned the envelope closely with
an indifferent ‘‘Mebbe. It might be any-
thing ; looks as much like a tangled shoe-
string as anything else. Let’ssee, whois it
I've seen writin’ like that? Oh—Lordy !”’
and she relapsed into a sudden and signifi-
cant silence.
“Who is it?"’ Mame’s voice was sharp,
her baby mouth quivering a little at the
threatened disappointment.
“Mug Farrelly ! Oh, ain’t you the sly
one! You never told me he was sweet on
youse.”’
“Tain’t so I’ snapped Mame, tears in
her voice now, as she contemptuously
crushed the little trumpery lace affair in
her hand.
“Oh, all right then, it ain’t. But
there’ll be some waltzin’ when I tell Hen,
that’s all. Give me a ticket to look on at
the show, won’t you ?”’
‘‘Youse needn’t trouble yourself, Madam
Cely Slater,” using the most withering
term of contempt her distressing imagina-
tion could conjure up. “‘I’ll tell him my-
self, an’ I guess you can walk up to work
by yourself this morning? I've got better
company.’’
“Mug Farrelly, Mug Farrelly chanted
the devil in Cely Slater after her as she
flew hotly back to her hoe with the now
despised pink plush tribute.
Ten minutes later, on her way to the
factory in sulky solitude, Mame felt better.
In her hand she carried a pasteboard box
directed to ‘Mr. D. F. Mug Farrelly,”
with the address ‘‘Myaminsing Jail’? elab-
orately inscribed and as elaborately crossed
out under his street number. This Mr.
Farrelly took with his own fair hands and
a brow black as thunder from the smirk-
ing postman at noontide. ‘‘Here, wait a
minute,’’ he called ; and as the unsuspect-
ing representative of uncle Sam poked his
mild face in the door again his helmet was
grasped by the visor and hurled full in his
face with the fierce remark : ‘‘Yer paid for
deliverin’ letters an’ not for deliverin’
grins. See ?
After this the back gate was the better
part of valor, seeing that it represented dis-
cretion; and a hasty skirmish through the
alley and down several side streets was
necessary before Mug could tear open the
box, to behold—what?. The prettiest and
freshest of pink plush valentines, speckled
with serap-book pictures of corpulent Cu-
pids, pensive doves and wee white missives
sealed with a blood-red heart and jabbed
through with something supposed to be an
arrow. Mug’s wits were not of the bright-
est, and he lived on pretty close terms of
intimacy with an enemy who enters by the
mouth to steal away brains from him that
hath not even that which he hath; so he
turned it over in his grimy fingers in va-
cant wonder for several minutes beforea
light broke over his vast Sahara Desert of
a face and he slapped his knee enthusi-
astically and cried :
“Cely! Ge whiz, it’s her, an’ no one
else!” The insulting inscription on the
envelope was her playfulness, of course.
Cely loved her fling. “For its acceptance
will include a kiss.”’
“You bet!” he murmured ecstatically,
and before the day was an hour older he
had confided to at least half a dozen of his
chums that Cely Slater was gone on him—
dead gone; and the chums had said, “Gor-
ry I’ and ‘‘Gee whiz !”’ in frank amazement,
and then told their chums. It did not oc-
cur to him to peer closer into the furbelows
and draw from thence a paper which Mame
Morgan had folded and placed there with
vindictive joy.
**Mug,’’ said a shrill voice in his ear
which made him jump in a hurry out of
his amorous musings into the everyday
world, ‘‘the cops is onto yer fer smashin’
the letterman’s face ! I seen ’em comin’ up
Wash’t'n avenyah with a crowd.”
The small bearer of evil tidings watched
with impish grin while the perturbed lover
looked this way and that. To run was
easy; to get rid of the precious piece of im-
pedimenta was necessary.
‘‘Here,’’ he panted, thrusting it into the
gamin’s hand, ‘‘take this round the corner
to Hen Shaw at the news stand an’ ask
him to keep it for me. Tell him it’s from
Cely Slater.’
“I was to give this to yer,” reported the
small gamin the next moment to Hen
Shaw, breathlessly. ‘It’s from some girl,’
and in an instant he too was out of sight.
That perverted piece of paper! It would
not suggest its existence to Mug Farrelly,
but as Hen, with a decidedly unpleasant
sense of astonishment, stretched out his
hand for his rejected offering a penny val-
entine fell out. The caricature portrait
was that of ‘‘The Lady Killer,” and the
legend beneath it ran :
Oh, don’t you think you’re smart and sweet,
Oh, don’t you mash the girls!
That's right ; show off your ugly feet,
Your hair in barber curls,
Yet all the while you try to court,
And fancy you're a beau,
They only make you Cupid's sport,
And write to tell you so.
‘That girl’s meaner than sausage meat !’’
said Hen through his teeth. ‘‘Even if she
don’t love me, she needn’t—Oh, Mame, it
isn’t a bit like you.”’
After which wail he wrapped the valen-
tine up with a brief note : ?
DEAR SELY—Mame sent this back to
me; will you ixcept it and stick it up some-
where for her to see it? Ino you don’t
like men; but I no you liketo plag folks.
Respectfully, HEN SHAW.
Mame and Cely’s quarrel had been short-
lived, and after walking home from . work
with their arms linked together Mame hov-
ered on her friend’s doorstep, hoping for
her lover’s appearance. As they waited
the postman, with bandaged head which
bore testimony to Mug Farrelly’s fist power,
mounted the step and handed Cely a letter.
Before it was opened Mame’s jealous eyes
had seized on two facts—that it was ad-
dressed in Hen Shaw’s handwriting and
that pink edges showed where the envelope
had been rubbed and broken. Her eyes
flashed and she turned on Cely in fury.
‘Cele Slater! You—you traitoress !
What's Hen Shaw writin’ to you fer? I
heard you was a-goin’ around South street
sweetheartin’ with him yesterday an’ I
wouldn’t believe it, but I do now. I do
b’lieve he’s sent you a valentine !”’
*“Mebbe,” said Cely coolly, putting the
unopened missive in her hosom, which nev-
ertheless burned with curiosity. *‘’Tain’t
no worse than you an’ Mug Farrelly—an’,
by the jumps, there he is, an’ Hen too !’’
The two swains were advancing on them
from opposite ends of the street, looming
up through the dusk like messengers of
Nemesis. Neither perceived the other, but
when Mug Farrelly, who was ahead, saw
that Cely had company he held bashfully
back, ‘I want yer, Cely,’”’ he said, in a
shy, half whisper, and the mystified con-
coctor of plots ran down the steps to be
caught in her own snare.
‘Hen !"’ called Mame piteously, as Hen
Shaw stalked stiffly up to the trio.
“Oh,
Hen, I want to tell you—"’
“I want you to tell me somethin,’ too !
Then you needn’t tell me nothin’ more.
Did Mug Farrelly send you a valentine,
too ?”’
“Yes”’—tremulously—*‘I—I think he
did, but—"’
“That’s nuff,” said Hen grimly, and
would have turned off in search of his ene-
my without realizing that he stood within
shoulder touch, but for a sharp feminine
scream which startled his ears. Mr. Far-
relly had claimed the verses of the circu-
lating valentine, and Cely’s face was hot
with anger and shame.
‘Mug Farrelly, blast his face!” and in
an instant Hen had grasped the arm of his
bewildered and unresisting foe. “What
was he doin’ ?”’
‘Kissin Mame!’ shrieked Cely in a
burst of impish inspiration. “That's right,
Hen, lay it on. Oh, it does me good to see
you! and she fairly pranced with excite-
ment as the blows fell rapidly on both sides
without anybody having a very clear un-
derstanding of the situation.
That was a fight long preserved in the
annals of Washington avenue: Mug was
no mean pugilist, and in the affray several
bricks were torn up and a crowd of about
fifty persons collected hefore he faintly
owned, under the persuasive influence of
Hen’s solid weight resting on his limp
form, that he was ‘‘beat.’””Mame Morgan
was dissolved in tears at her lovers’ peril;
Cely alone was calm until someone in the
crowd shouted out :
‘Cele Slater, go pick up yer man!
Thought you was so stuck on Mug Far-
relly.”
‘“Who says so?”
‘Everybody says so! It’s known all
round the street. We thought you was
engaged.’’
There was no time for explanations or
denials; there was a moment to be seized.
Cely took one rapid stride toward the vie-
tor, who was enacting a melting reconcilia-
tion scene, with Mame on his shoulder and
hissed in his ear:
‘Hen Shaw, d’ye hear ’em ? If youdon’t
stop em somehow I'll tell Mame Morgan
just what that valentine cost to a cent !’’
‘‘Fellers !’” the hero’s autherative tones
caught everyone’s ear. ‘‘Just let me ever
hear them two names put together again—
Slater an’ Farrelly—an’ the one that does
it’s got to fight me !”’
The edict was obeyed, and to this day
no one dares whisper to Cely that Mug
Farrelly so mueh as exists. No one, either,
has ever unraveled the complications which
entwined themselves around the circulating
valentine, which is now in Mame Morgan’s
possession. Even the little Cely knows
she never dared to reveal toanyone but her
mother, who held up horror- stricken hands.
‘Child o’ sin and Satan ! How did you
feel when Mame Morgan was cryin’ her
eyes out an’ them two men most killin’
each other, all for your mischief-makin ?”’
*‘I got the giggles on me,” said Cely.

SLEEPLESSNESS. PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD
While the Rocky Mountain region is justly
famed for its salubrious climate, and is becoming
more and more the mecca toward which pilgrims
are traveling from all parts of the world that they
may fill their weakened lungs with its life-living
air, yet there are ailments in that climate as in
any other, one of the chief of which is sleepless-
ness. Thisis due to the rarity of the air which
on some constitutions is too stimulating to the
nerves. Insome cases patients are compelled to
remove for a time to the sea level to escape the
high nervous strain. As sleeplessness is not an
uncommon accompaniment to certain nervous
conditions (in any climate) the story of a woman
of Pueblo, Col., may point a moral to others, who
have had a similar affliction.
The woman eame to Pueblo thirty years ago,
when the town was a frontier settlement, and
Indians were by no means unusual visitors, bands
of Ute’s often passing through on their way from
the mountains down to the plains to hunt buffa-
loes.
She had been in good health, until a few years
ago when at eaeh recurring spring time she be-
came debilitated, weak and languid. Her strength
left her, she was listless and lifeless. This, too,
in spite of the stimulating eftects of the high
altitude. The mogt serious difficulty, however,
was sleeplessness which she could not cure. The
long weary watches of the night told on her
health and she dreaded the approach of night.
This lack of sleep weakened her strength and
brought on extreme nervousness, until she was
a physical wreck.
As she could not well take the long journey
necessary to a change of climate, she sought for
nervous system, and thus enable her to get that
ESPECIALLY FREQUENT IN HIGH ALTITUDES.
* How It May be Overcome In Any Climate.
From the Chieftain, Pueblo, Col.
some nerve restorative, that would build up the
sleep and rest without which she could not long
endure the strain. She at length found this in
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People. She
said to the reporter : by the time I had taken one
box of these pills, I not only felt stronger but to
my surprise found that I could sleep.
“I have taken four boxes now and can take a
long nap during the day and sleep soundly all
night.
“The medicine not only takes away that weary
depressed feeling but creates a buoyancy and ex-
hilaration that does not pass away when one stops
taking the pills.
“I am forty-nine years old and about thirty
years ago I began to be troubled with gatherings
in my head. The trouble continued until I was
unable to hear a sound through my right ear and
my left ear was badly affected. I-had no idea
that the pills would benefit my ears but they evi-
dently did as my hearing is very much improved.
“I consider Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale
People a wonderful medicine. The address of

highly recommend Doan’s Kidney Pills. Last
spring I was suffering from an acute lameness in
my back, and a dull, lingering aching over my
kidneys. I felt it in my head also and there were
ains over my eyes and in the top and back of my
ead and in the upper pars of my spine. I was
afraid I would not be able to attend tomy duties
as I was on night work and had to get my rest in
the day time, for on account of my back and
these pains I could not rest well. I read about
Doan’s Kidney Pills and obtained them from the

to be just the remedy I required and they remov-
