8A TINQS AND UOINQS.

Biscuit-colored walking suits are now the fashion with ladies a la mode. They go charmingly with doughnut-colored hair.

It is infinifely easier for some men to keep their balance on a tight rope than for others to keep .their balance in a bank.

A Montreal clergyman was too ill to preach on Sunday, but be wrote a sermon, and by the use of a telephone heard it delivered in his church by an other preacher, as lie Isy on bis sick-bed in his chamber.

The Chicago News tells that among the curiosities of American railroading exhibited at the exposition bnilding this weak will be a conductor who has

on

«n*orban

train

Some New York dudes having drank the health of an actress ont oi her slipper, which she flung off into the audi ence, a rival actress said "Each one whole slipper fulL How very drunk they must have got!"

Three thousand depositors in Con neticut savings banks have not made inquiries about their money for twenty years past. The larger part of them will never be heard of, but some of the heirs would like to get hold of the books of deposit.

A libel suit against a Kansas news paper has proved a boomerang. The plaintiff not only lost bis case, but is prosecuted on a charge of attempted black-mail, bis demand for money having been backed only by threats of anuoyance.

A law student at Lafayette was sur prised in the midst of an impassioned address before a sawhorse and twelve sticks of cord wood set on end. This laudable attempt at innocent practice was laughed at so muoh that he left town to escape the ridicule.

The occasional poisoning of a family by eating canned vegetables, fruits or meats is a warning that canners are driven by competition to use improper materials in cans and contents. A little official investigation into some of these canning establishments might be com mended.

The notorious Duke de Morny, whose money and title seem to act as a screen for his disreputable character among New York fashionable society, has introduced some new notions in dress which are being imitated by the dudes and swells. He does not wear the traditional black pigeon-tail coat at evening parties, but appears in a plumcolored velvet cut in the same shape and adorned with sapphire buttons.

When Johu Hay, son-in-law of the late Amassa Stone, took his wife to see his father and mother, plain farmers on an Illinois prairie, he was anxious as to how bis rich wife would greet them. Without hesitation she called them father and mother, and gave them a daughter's kiss. Why shouldn't she? She did not have to descend or condescend very far. Her own father was born in just such a homestead, and on a barren New England farm instead of a rich Illinois one.

Miss Abigail R. Henderson, of Philadelphia, wears gray, baggy trowsers, a dark dress-coat, and a high silk hat. As she walked by the Continental Hotel two men he.d converse between themselves. Said one, speaking unto the other, "It walks the brick-bats like a thing of life," and answered the other unto the one, "You bet your life it does." And Miss Henderson hastened to the police headquarters and preferred a request that the twain be arrested. But alas, the superintendent was an unprogressive brute.

THIS SHOOTING BUSINESS. Prof. Swing In Weekly Magasfhe. A man offering violence to a woman might well be shot down by the nearest friend of the girl or wife, but when persons in middle life and by deliberate steps turn away from home and wander off into the outside world, if either of tbern is fettered by marriage, tbe remedy is not a pistol, but divorce. What a fool Ruskin would have been had he shot anybody! What an infinite blockhead would tbe Rev. Newman Hall have made of himself bad be attempted to keep his domestic affairs all right by means of a few murders In this city, when a wife recently ran off with another man, tbe deserted mortal reque-t-ed the new husband to treat well the stolen wife. Good idea! No bloodshed No noise and confusion! If A's wife prefer B. she is not worth the pow der that would kill B.
