DICKENS IN CAMP.

A Philadelphia poete exclaims': "Oh, kiss me once and let, me die!" If she is kissed by the riht man and in the. right manner, she will want to live forever. A South Side seamstress carelessly left a needle in the back of a young-ltdy mstonit s dress, and now a particular friend of the family has his arm done up in arnica. "I don't believe in church seats being free," said Deacon Ames. "And why not:" inquired the parson. "Because they make I cople good, for nothing." Boston Tranwnpt.

We are inclined to think he has loi -red on the road, to have reached a point no rearer Heaven than Martinsville after forty years travel. ""Will you kindly tell me what is going on in that church?" asked a tramp of a gentleman who had just descended the steps. 'They are holding a church fair." "I am very sorry." "Why so, my friend?"

Two Irishmen were walking along one of the main thoroughfares in Glasgow, when they noticed a large placard in the window of the shop with the werds, "Butter! Butter!!

"Well, Jud," she said, "I hear you have been called to the ministry. Glad to hear it. You'll make a real good preacher; but, solemnly Jud, you must stop j-our lying." A good story told of an old settler who had never killed a ueer, but was fortunate enough to entrap one in a snare. "Now," said he to his wife, "I'll have to say that I killed one deer." So he tied a rope about the animal's horns and fastened it to a tree. Carefully loading his big-boral rifle, he stepped off a few iaees and aimed deliberately at the buck's head. Bang went the gun, the dust tfew from the rote, and the leer bounded off, free and unfettered, to enjoy the pleasures of his haunts in the green wood. The bullet had cut the rope in twain The commcn ial traveler of a Philadelphia hoiise, while in Tennessee, approached a stranger as the train was aoout to start and t?aid: "Are you going on this train?"

The Hare met the Beetle one morning and discovered that the latter was greatly excited. Upon asking the cause the Beetle replied: "I have made up my mind to attack the Lion." "Pooh! but what could you do with the King of Beasts?" "Insult and vilify him." "Yes, but he may destroy you at his slightest blow." "Oh, as to that," said the Beetle, as he drew down his left eye, "I shall depend upen his high josition to Escaie with Impunity. While a Beetle may Insult a Lion, the Lion would be Lolt to waste his time on the Beetle." .MORAL. Nevertheless, it is well enough to smash a Beetle now and then. KNOTTY PROBLEMS.

The Münster Itank leraalter Cobk, July 30. The committee of investigation which is inquiring into the affairs of the suspended Munster Bank, reports that Mr. I arnuharson, the joint Dublin Manager, who has absconded, wilfully prevented the ltank of Ireland from advancing to the Munster Bank a desired loan which would have enabled it to tide over the crisis, by refusing to give to the Bank of Ireland the securities intrusted to him with which to obtain the credit, and upon which the Bank of Ireland had decided to lend. Farquharson was unmarried. He was a great speculator in the Ixmdon Stock Exchange and on the Continental bourses. He lived stylishly, and recently purchased a handsome suburban villa near Dublin for$25,00O. The joliee traced the defaulting manager to Northwall, whncethey learned he departed for Holyhead on Tuesday evening last.

A dreadful philosopher says: "Society is loaded down with maidens past their prime who have refused to be marked down or go at a sacrifice. They will not be slaughtered like dry goods, preferring to become mummies, or, like fruit, to decay rather than not fetch their price." Lilian Whiting remarks: "The standard of society should be that of our greatest intellectual possibilities rather than the actual attainments of sophomoric young ladies and gentlemen." Lilian has doubtlens attended a number of commencements and heard numerous essays this season. After next year, it is predicted, the southern Presbyterian widower who wants to marry his deceascd wife's sister will be able to do so with the sanction of the church. The action of a large numler of the presbyteries this year indicates that the clause in the confession of faith which has heretofore stood in the way of such marriages will le stricken out. Children at "Wedding. Small brothers and sisters or cousins now apiear as the bride's attendants at high-class weddings. One youthful page in white velvet and silk, with white plumed hat, at a recent wedding, was almost as marked a part of the spectacle as the bride herself. Dainty babies in frocks of India silk covered with lace, mobcaps of lace and posies tied with satin ribbons, or pretty girls of nine to eleven. with hair in ruffled lovelocks, muslin dresses and flower basket slung by a ribbon across the shoulder, make a charming part of the bridal group. He Understand the &x. Chicago Tribune. To the average youth I don't know any more unprofitable or endless study than wdmankinu. Yet every young man goes through that extraordinary phase of life when he understands the sex. He knows all about them. He can write a book about them, and all their little idiosyncrasies are clear lefore him. It is a glorious time of life. It lasts two or three years. He grows to thirty and his analytical powers are so intense they practically paralyze his reason. A flash fm his intellectual lantern-eye lights up the innermost recesses of woman's soul, and shows all its hidden strength and weak-

He fixes his great heart and brain on some one woman he has studied. He knows sire worships him, and he tells her how thoroughly he has founded every depth of feeling and sentiment in her nature. He feels that he has only to freak and she is Iiis. At last he speaks, and sky and sea and earth gets all mixed up when the gentle voice tells him to go to thunder.-

Evil Spirits and Evil Name. Chinese parents are afraid to give their children the fine, high-sounding names their love suggests, lest the evil spirits, of whom they stand in constant fear, should come to understand how precious they are, and cause some calamity to overtake them. And so you constantly meet with children answering to the names of Little Stupid, Vagabond Flea, Dirt of Spring Dog the idea being that when the spirits hear the little ones called by such uncomplimentary names they will imagine that the parents care very little for them, and will not take the trouble to molest them. Kept ller Image. Miss Landon asks, "What is recalled by faded flowers, Save that they do not last? Were it not better to forget, Than to remember aud regret?" but a far juster and sweeter estimate is expressed in Tennyson's lines, " Tis better to have loved and lost Than never to have loved at all!" and it is seldom we find a more beautiful illustration of this than the following incident of an image-seller: Some years ago, when I first saw him, he had a number of small plaster busts of a smiling child's face. The workmanship was much better than the ordinary character of such articles, and the face was repeated with sufficient faithfulness on half-a-dozen busts to show that they were copies of some model. "Are these likenesses of any child, or mere fancy heads?" was asked of the image vender, "Ktt ees my little girl Tita," said he, and he laughed and showed a set of wonderfully perfect teeth. "Does it look like her?" "Oh yecs!" he exclaimed, with an earnest protest in his tone against the imputation that his art was faulty. A few days ago I saw the same man, with a basketful of small casts on his arm. Stopping him from idle curiosity, one of the heads was taken from the basket and examined. It was Tita again, just as it had been years ago the same smiling, happy face. "You still copv your daughter s face as it used to eV said the writer. The man looked surprised, and then his face clouded. "You told me once long ago that this was vour little girl Tita, whose face you modeled. Has she not changed, and does she not look older?" He took off his tattered hat, and his voice trembled as he answered, "Tita ees dead, but I see zee face in zee clouds, signor. She eez dead, and no changa." The Peasant and His Donkey. A donkey who had served his master long and faithfully was surprised one morning when the man came out and called him a thief. "Really, but I do not deserve such abuse," said the donkey. "I have mied three of my choicest fowls," continued the peasant, "and you alone could have taken them." "But please remember that I do not eat flesh. What could I do with your chickens?" "Ah! then it was the fox." 'Very likely." "And, as you lid not drive him away, and as he is now beyond my reach, you must exIect to suffer for it," And l e turned to with an old snow shovel and beat the donkey until the roof overhead was red hot. moral: "When misfortune comes to man through his own neglect," said the konkey, as he rubbed his bruises on a tine knot, "he blames everybody but himself."

Then I said in words of old, "Verilv, Thou art a God that ludest Thyself ;" ""Why art Thou so far from helping me?" And while I yet spake, a voice made answer, "Why didst thou not meet me at the door? Thou hast been in search of me through the labyrinths of the world; why didst thou not come first to me to lead thee through the labyrinths? Thou hast been seeking to see me by the light of the world; why didst thou not rather seek to see the world by my light ; I would have made all things clear to thee if thou hadst met me at the door."

I Eufi'crcd for more than five years with indigestion, scarcely able to retain the simplest food on my stomach. The burning sensation was almost intolerable, and my whole system was deranged. I was wakeful and could not sleep, and consequently more or less nervous all the time. I declined iu flesh, and suffered all the usual depression attendant upon this terrible disease. In a word, I was miserable. At last, failing to find relief In anything else, I commenced the use of Swift's Specific. I began to improve at ouce. The medicine toned up the stomach, strengthened the digestive organs, and soon all that burning ceased, and I could retain food withouCdifficulty. Now my health is good, and can eat anything iu the shape of food, and digest it without the slightest difficulty.

My legs and feet would swell, and I had what everybody thought was dropsy. These symptoms alarmed me, aud I was ready to grasp at any remedy suggested. A friend advised me to try Swift's Ppecitic.

There never was a more meritorious medieine oflered to su tiering humanity. It has wrought wonders for me. Willis Jones. Leesburg, Lee County, Ga., March 11, ltö. For sale by all druggists.
