Mr. C'oolidiro came to tlio house I wna
just ready to lenvo with . JJr..: Mint,
and was leelint' in n pretty good nu
mor; Mr. Coolidge was very bland;
he said he had looked over tho hill
and there was no pariicularjtem with
which be found fault, but it was with
the amount of tho bill; I told him he
could not expect a bill to run six
months without running tip ; ho suid
bo was rcsUved to take this thing in
to court, becnu.iQ il wan high limo to
have high priced dressmakers taken

' I think you will hare to legislate bo
fore you can keep tho girls away
from me; now Mr. Coolidge, you willj
liavo !o look this bill over uud see
what there is to find fault with." I
"Mrs. Flynt," Paid he, "I bavo ninde

looked upon yon u a public awindler,

called him "a miserable ttinncr,"

How is il about fitting different
women, Mrs. Flynt ? A. Somo I can
fit off in tin hour and some it takes
hall a day.
How was il with Mrs. Coolidge?
A. Sho was a very difficult woman to
fit to make her look w ell ; I don't say
I hut I made her look well; I did the

solemn truth, as 1 hope for heaven's

Tho court could nol believe this
story. . They upbraided iho mother
for her impudence in endeavoring lo
pulin off such a manifest lie for the
truth. They besought her for her
own sake to retract so absurd a talc,
for it could be of no effect, but obliged
the court lo spntom-e her to a much
severer punishment than they were
disposed to inflict upon ono so young
and evidently steeped eo deep in pov.

one of ihe judges proposed to renew

Tho gold coins were placed on the
clerk's table. Tho mother was n
quested to osstimo tho position in
u liich tho stood at her employer's
house. There was then a silent
breathing in tlie court. Tlio baby
soon discovered tlio blight coin, eyed
it for a moment, smiled nnd then
strelched forth its liny bands and
clutched litem in it fingers with u
miser's eagerness. Tho mother was
acquitted.
