Tho lamp had long been extinguished when tho staggering sot returned home, and, by mistake, when proceeding tn satisfy his hunger, ho stuck his link Into the wrong dl-li. He worked away at hH mouthful of caps very patiently for some time, but finally, being nimble to luasllcatn them, hu aaug nut to his wire- "Old woman, whoro did you get your cabbage?- -they aroso darned klrlugy, I can't chew them 1" "My gracious," replied the good lady, "If tho stupid fellow ain't eating up all my dH that I put Itistarch overnight.'

It is leap year, Of which fact I with to remind tho ladles. Thero is a division of opinion as to the right of woman to vote, but there can bo no question ns to her right to 11 husband, if she can get one. Now Is her time. Hut I would advlso young ladies not lo he rash. Although it Is leap year, you had hot ter look before you leap. Hccause, 11 you got 11 limb mil, and hu don't suit you, you can't change him for 1 bettor one, nt least, without going to Chicago. There aro several considerations to ha observed lu tho selection of a husband. Looks are a matter of taste : size, complectlon and color of whiskers may bo left to individual tasto. They are of less eonscquonco than dis position and pecuniary resources. Particularly tho resources. I wouldn't advlso any young woman to marry a man who would expect her to Htipport them. It is not a fair thing on the old gen tleman, who has been looking forward to tho marriage of hii daughter as a happy rcleno from milliner's hills. Never disappoint your parents. Young ladles need not inqulro too particularly whether tho man of their choice belongs to a lodge, which meets four nights a week. She will And that out after they aro married.

Such as editors, for they never get rich. Or reporters, who are nover nt homo nlghls. Or politicians, who nru not satisfied witli one wife, hut nru always gelling wedded to their country, anil like most bigamists abuse both their wives.
