Bemuse They Wero Men. IXere is a conversation between two men that I heard yesterday morning. It they had been women X wonder what would have hap pened. "Have you met the new partner in that firm yet?" "Yes." "Is he a young man?" "No; not very young. About your age, I should think." "Do you think I am old?" "Oh, not very old, but you are con siderably older than I am." "I doubt that, but how old are you?" "I'm 3fi. How old are you?" "Thirty-seven." "Then I am younger, but I thouaht you wero even older thau that. You look older." "Oh, you think so?" "Yes. Maybe it's the bald spot that makes you look older. Then you have an old Ilgure, too." All this was said in perfect earn estness, and yet the men parted friends. Cocoanut Hotter. There aicseveral factories in India and one, at least, in Euiope, that at Mannheim, Germany, where butter is made from cocoanuts. A HI en in Out of l lie Difficulty.

But whether I live an honest man, And holds my integrity firm in my clutch. I tell you, brother, plain as I am, It matters much I It matters little how long I stay In a world of sorrow, sin, and care; Whether in youth I am callod away, Or llvo till my bones anl pnto are baro. But whether I do the best I can To so.ten tho wolght of adversity's touch Ou tho fndol cheek of ray fellow man, It matters much!

DOCTOR BARTONS PATIENT EV HELEN I'OHKEFT GRAVES. r=rr ND you (lou't oven //J know her name!" _ I j —il said Mrs. Rou- Xl I l\ wick. "My dear Kenneth, there 1 never was snj thing so ridic ulons?" —=-^' lo Cft l'tain of artillery shifted his feet to a more comfortable position on tho sofa, and looked longingly at a box of cigars which was placed just boyond his roach. "Of course I know her name," said he; "and a very pretty one it is. Perry—Miss Perry." "But who is it you aro talking about?" said pretty Joyce, who had been preparing a mustard-paste for Uor brother's cliest. Captain Ronwick answerod prompt "My sweetheart I" "Kenneth, doa't bo ridiculous 1" said his mothor, somewhat tartly. "The sweetest, pruttiost blossom in all tho Adirondack wildemessosl" pursued Keuuoth. "Tho fairest of— Catnip tea I I doolaro, Joyce, I won't drink itl What do you tako mo for?" "Its tho host thing 111 the world for a cold ou tho cheat," said Mrs. Ronwick, wringing her hands. "Oh, if you had only kept away frcm that eampiug party." "I mistook her for tho boatman's daughter tho iirst time," Haid Captain Ronwick. "bho—" "Kenneth, don't talk—pleaso don't talk I" urgod his mother. "It's tho worst thing you ooald possibly do, with your lungs all congostod, and—" "Rut I must talk!" said tho captain, "Consider, molhor, Joyco hasn't heard a word about it. Sho only cumo last, nigbt. Fancy, Joyce, my being fool enough to mistake her for a boat man's daughter I" "Why, nreu't boatmen's daughters ns nico unit la lylike as any one?" said Joyce, readjusting lier apron ribbons. "Oh, but this boatman lives in a perpetual stato of shirt-sloovos I" said Ronwick ; "aud ho is a living fountain of tobacco juice, aud talks abominable grammar through his nose. Aud his wifo is a low class of Meg Merrilios, who takes too muoh bad whisky when ever she has tho opportunity. How I ovor made such a blunder I cau't imagino. But Jenkins sent nio up to tho Imko lie.id to hire a boat, and when I saw lior sitting there among tho water-lilies, I jumped at ouco to the conclusion that this was tho boat to hire. 'My good girl,' says I— fancy my idiocy!—if you will just row me up io Needle Point, and oall for mo again in the evening, I'll givo you a dollar.'" "Ami hIio?" said Joyce. "Rowod me up, of course. I wish you could have soon the way iu which she handled tho oars. But it was Dolpb, tho tobacco-soaked old boat man, who called for me at sunset. 4 Why didn't you send your daugh ter?' Hays I. 'lt warn't my darter,' says he; 4 it was Miss Perry.' Well, then I met her at the picnic. Wo waltzed together half tho evening. Sho is as beautiful as sbo is graceful, und as intelligent as she is beautiful." "Did you apologize?" asked Joyce. "Of courso I apologized," said Cap tain Kenneth. 4 'And wo had a good laugh over it. She h:ul been after water-lilies, she baid. {She paints 'em in water colors. I am to have one when they are finished. Joyce, you must know her. She is a perfect beauty. And she dauccs like a sylph, and sings liko Patti, and —" "Nonsense!" said Joyce. 44 A farm er's duughter, seen through tho big end of the opera glass! Yoti wore al ways a victim to delusions, Kenneth." "My dear Joyce, I assure you—" "Childreu, children!" roinoustra ted Mrs. Renwick, piteously, "Jo have a littlo common sense. Kenneth, you know you ought not to talk. Joyce, don't you hear how hoarse your brother is?" If pucumonia should set iu after this exposure—" Captain Renwick made an expres sive grimace. Joyco lookod a litle apprehensive. "Mamma," said she, "you always were a pessimist. It's only a cold that ails Kenntli." "But it is settling on his lungs, ray dear," saul Mrs. Ronwick, plaintively. "And out here in the wilderness there isn't even a drug store short of fifteen miles. Oh, doar ! oh, dear ! why did I ever allow myself to bo persuaded to come to tho Adirondacks?" "The scenery, mamma !"said Joyce, soothingly. 4 'But ono can't eat and drink scenery. And this woman kuQtvs absolutely nothing about omelettes and French coffee, and she never broiled a beefsteak in her life until I showed her how. As for her soups, they are simply uneatable. And the beds are as hard as tho neither mill stone, and the mosquitees are unen durable !" "All these are trivial annoyances," Haid Captain Renwick, skillfully con triving to tip over tho catnip-tea on the current number of a popular maga zine, in his reach after tho cigar box. 'To mo, the Adirondacks are the gar den of the world! I shall never bo willing to go anywhere else in the sum mer. And she says it is even finer hero in winter, with the trifling ex ception of a litfclo solitude." "Kenneth," cried his mother, in agonized accents, 4 'you must not talk 1" "My dearest mother, I am all right if you only won't fret!" declared this prodigal son. Rut Captain Renwick's eyes were unnaturally bright, tho hot flush of fever burned on his cheek, and his breathing was alternately hurried and laborious. It was undoubtedly tho fact that ho had taken a severe cold during tho camping out expedition from which lie had just returned, and that this cold had been proof, so far, at least, against all tho remedies Mrs. Renwick had used. 4< Oh, dear! oh, dear!" sighed tho mother. "Why don't tho doctor come? Joyce, look out of the win dew ! Sec if there aro any signs of him." "The doctor?" ejaculated Captain Renwick, raising himself on ono elbow among his pillows. 44 You don't say you have sent for a doctor?" "Why, of course I have!" said Mrs. I Renwick— 4< for Doctor Barton, from Nylesburg." 44 A snuff-taking old fiend, who will doeso mo with calomel, and experi ment on me with every ono of the hun dred-year-old drugs in his suddlo bags!" cried the captain. 44 1 won't see him!" 44 Dear Kenneth!" ploatod Joyce. "My sou!"sobbed Mrs. Renwick. "No!" ejaculated Ivonnetk. 4 'l'll jbo hanged if Ido ! I dospiso doctors, anyway ! And what sort of a medical I man do you imagino would perch him [ self up hero on tho boughs of these i everlasting pines?" "Kennotb, you must eoo him!" said Mrs. Renwick. *'Mother, I won't," stoutly declorod tho rebel. <4 But what will ho think?" 4 4 What ho pleases. It will matter littlo to you or me what ho thinks," said Kenneth. ,4 AII I know is, that ho shan't cross this threshold. Give him his fee and toll him to bo gono 1" Mrs. Ronwick and Joyce looked de spairingly at each other. Undoubtedly tho captaiu was master of tho situation. If ho chooso to set tho doctor and his gallipots at defiance, what was to be done? All that moment, liowovor, tliero was a slight rustle down stairs. 4 4 Tho doctor has como !" cried Joyce, cxcitodly, 44 with such a pretty littlo liorso and phaeton. Oh, Ken. I'msuro lie isu't old, and ho don't take snuff. Oh, I'm so sorry I didn't catch a glimpse of him." "Ho has como, has he?" said tho captain. 4 'Then tell him to go about his business." Mrs. Ogden, tho fat landlady, put in her head at this juncture. "Please, mem, tho doctor," said she. 4 'Tell him—" hoarsely shouted Ken neth, flinging tho pillows right and loft. But before he could eompleto his sontenco the door opened and a tall young lady, in a blue cloth ulster and a pretty plumed hat, came in, with a flat morocco caso in her hand. "Miss Perry!" ho exclaimed, star ing at her from the sofu, with a face suddenly lighted into new brightness and enthusiasm. "How kind of you to remember mo! You aro acquainted with my mother, are you not? Joyce, this is Miss Perry." The tall young lady looked com posedly around her. "I am sorry to hear of your illness, Captain Renwick," said she. "We must see what we can do for you." "But," added Kenneth, stretching his neck to net a look at tho door, which was still slightly ajar, "wliero is tho doctor? They told me ho was coming up." The beautiful blonde sat down and gently took Kenneth Renwick's wrist in her delicate fingers. "I am tho doctor," said she. "Have tho goodness to remain quite still for a few moments while I ascertain tho pulse and temperature." Captaiu Renwick was struck dumb. An electric thrill seemed to dart through every pulse aud vein. But Joyce's eyes sparkled, and tho dim ples came out around her mouth. "You !" she cried. "A doctor?" Doctor Barton nodded, still intent on tho enameled faco of her watch. "Pernolla Barton. They call mo Perry for short. Captain Renwick always called mo Miss Perry. I don't believe ho know I had any other name." "And you are really a doctor?" said Joyce. "Oh, Kenneth, how fortun ate !" Doctor Barton examined her pa tient s tongue, listened at his lungs aud made some abstruse hieroglyphics in her notebook. Then she measured out some gray powders iu infinitesi mal papers, and left her directions in tho most business-like way in the world. "I shall look in again this even ing," she said. "It seems to be noth ing more than a severe cold. But I do not intend that it shall gain any headway." 44 1 put myself entirely in your charge," sai l Captain Renwick, with a contented air. "I'm perfectly cer tain that I shall get well." "I thought you were going to scud the doctor aliont his business." mali ciously whispered Joyce. "But I didn't know what sort of a doctor it was," retorted the captaiu. Pneumonia did not sot in after all. Doctor Barton proved a true prophet, and soon dispelled the heavy cold. But Captain Ronwick had yet another ailment—in the region of the l^eart. "Mother," he said, coaxingly, "wasn't I right? Ain't she lovely?" "The sweetest girl I ever saw," Mrs. Benwick wnrmly answered: "and the most talented and self-reliant." "And if, mother—" "You will be the most fortunate man in the world," said Mrs. Ben wick. Captain Bcnwiok mado the best use of his time, and, although Dr. Bar ton's summer vacation was over, and she lingered and lounged at pienies, and in the pearly shndow of water lilies, ho still continued to make many appointments for seeing her; and, when he returned to tho Hundred-and- Forty-seventh Artillery, he was an en gaged man. "And after tho first of November," ho says, "Doctor Barton will bo phy sician advisory to but one patient." - Saturday Night. A Much Traveled Cat. "I have got a pet kittoa at home,'* Haid W. L. Slocum, of Manchester, N. H., last night, "which, I think, has traveled about ns rapidly and as fur in one day as any other animal in the world. One morning, about a month ago, the kitten strayed into my fac tory a short time beforo tho machin ery was started up. It got playing around tho floor, and soon took up its position in tho big fly wheel, where, without being noticed, it nestled down and went to sleep. Boon the machin ery was put i:i motion, tho wheel moving so rapidly that the poorkittoD could not escape. Indeed, it is prob able that puss was soon unconscious from dizziness. A litfclo computation shows the distanoo tho cat traveled. The wheel moves at tho rote of 251] revolutions a minute, and at every turn pussy woDt sevontoen feet. As the wheel was kept in motion 390 minutes without stopping, tho kitten must have travelled during that time a little over 300 miles. When the wheol was stopped the kitten was dis covered and taken out, more dead than alive, hut it shortly recovered, and, although it has remained about the factory ever since, it is observed that it always gives tho fly wheel a wide berth."—-St. Louis Globo-Democrat. Chinese and Music. Tho Chinose have some extraordin ar.v superstitions relating to music. According to their queer notions, the Creator of the universe hid eight sounds in tho earth for tho express purposo of compelling man to find them out. According to tho Celestial idoa, tho eight primitive sounds aro hidden in stones, silks, woods of various kinds, tho bamboo plant, pumpkins, in tho skins of animals, in certain earths and in tho air itself. Any one who has ever had tho ploasuro of sooing and listening to a Chinese orchestra will remember that tho musical instru ments were made of all those materials except tho last, and that tho combined efforts of the other sovou scoinod bet ter calculated to drivo tho cthoreal sound away than to coax it from tbo air, which is really tho objoct ol all Chinese musical efforts. AVlieu the band plays the uaivo credulity of the people, both old and young, hours in tho thuds of the gongs and tho whistling of tho pipes the tones of tho eternal sounds of na ture that were originally deposited in the various animate and inanimate oh* jects by tho all-wise Father. —Phila delphia Pres3. Rescue oi a Sand llill Crane. "The devotion of birds to their young is ono of the most beautiful sights of nature," said William P. Bux ton, of Dubuque, last evening. "I saw a striking illustration of this char acteristic while on a hunting expedi tion up in Minnesota last fall. One day I shot and wounded p. young sand hill crane, which with several others, was resting on tho prairie. At tho re port of my gun all tho birds took flight with the exception of tho wounded ono and one other, which was almost cer tainly its parent. The injured bird made several attompts to fly, and finally succeeded in rising some ton or fifteen feet in tho air, hut as it could not sus tain itself it fell again to tho ground. It tried again, however, and thu parent bird, seeing tho trouble tho young one was in, placed herßelf uudernoath it, allowing it to rest its feet on her baok, both birds continuing all tho while to flap their wings. In this way, much to my amazement, sho succeeded in bearing it off to a pluco of safety." St. Louis Giobe-Demoerut.

Many a love affair which promised to go on smoothly to the end has been broken off by a mere trifle, said Mrs. Botherwell. An unbecoming gown may wreck a girl's hopes, a hasty word or act ruin a man's chances of sucCcss. You remember Fred Clark? lie is a good fellow, though perhaps not the bravest in the world. Last summer 1 introduced him to one of my guests, and he took a great fancy to her. Of course I did everything in my power to throw them together, and among other things gave a buck board party. They sat together on the backseat and were getting along finely, lie had reached the point where he told her he could not live without her, when the road took an abrupt turn, and the whistle of an approaching train sounded. It seemed right upon, us, though it really was on the other side of the hill. Well, he flew out on one side of the wagon and she out on the other, and when we turned a ound to look for them they had disappeared. One of the boys Jumped out and helped her back into the wagon, and some one res cued him, but she was so indignant to think that he had jumped without caring what became of her that she hardly spoke to him again. So you see that match was spoiled, Then there was Maud Atherton. A young man who had been devoted to her for some months invited her to join a yachting party. She determined not to run the risk of being seasick, so as a preventive measure, took any amount of smelling salts, lemons and other things with her, and to crown all. wore several mustard plasters. She was not seasick, tut presently she began to suffer agonies from the plasters, and though she smiled and tried to look natural she squirmed and twitched in a manner fearful to he hold. Of loursc her companion noticed her apparent restlessness. He said nothing, but after that day she knew him no more. He after wards declared that she was the most nervous girl he ever saw— just twitching all the time—and ho had no intention of marrying a woman on the verge of nervous pros tration. So you sco what trifles will break young love's slender thread. Levity Out of Place. One of the national vices of the American people is levity—the un healthy quality which, in contradis tinction to honest and wholesome gaiety or humor, turns all scrioU3 things to ridicule, and undermines tiio qualities of earnestness and of respect for real distinction. A person reading the debates In Congress or in the Mate Legislatures must sometimes wonder whether the most influential debater is not he who can make his fellow-members laugh the oftcuest with humorous trivialities. In a recent debate, a member, who was arguing against the appoint ment of certain federal officers from ot er States than those in which they were to serve, said that hoop posed such appointments because he was fond of watermelons, and he was afraid that if "any more men were sent West from Georgia there would not be enough able-bodied persons left there to harvest the watermelon ciop." At this the house laughed. It may have served well enough as a joke, hut it was hardly to be accepted as an argument in favor of the point which he was urging. Many donates consist largely of such Jukes, bandied back and forth between members. There Is a gen eral I avor of cynicism and Insincerity about such contests, not of real wit, but of idle levity—as if the members did not choose to take the public business us a serious matter at all. ■Such a tone on the part of our legislative debates is a most unfor t nute matter. The good citizen is not cynical abut the public business. Ho knows that seriousness, sincerity and earnestness are the prime virtues ot the public servant- Hoarding House News.
