HJS PNEUMOCASTRIC NERVE. BY DUOENK HELD. Upon an average, txv re a week, When tmgui h clouds my brow My good physkia , fric d I Reek To know "what nils me now.” He taps me on tho buck uml chest And scans my tengno for bile, ' And lays an ear against my breast And listens there a while. Then he Is ready to admit That all he can observe Is something wrong inside, to wit.: My jneumogastric i.Osvc! Now, when these Latin names within Dyspeptic bulks like mine Go wrong, a fellow should begin To draw wha s callo i the line. It seems, however, that this same, Which in my hulk abounds, Is not. despite its awful name, So fatal.as it sounds. Yet, of all torments known to me, I’ll say without re-erve, There is no torments known to thee. Thou pneumogastric nerve! This subtle, envious nerve appears To be a patient so It waited nearly forty years Its chance to lay me low ; Then, like some bli boring blast of hell. It struck this guileless bard, And in that evil hour I fell Prodigious far and h rd. Ahf ! what things I dearly lovePies, puddings, and preserves— Are sure to rouse the vengeance of All pneumogastric nerves 1 Oh. that I could remodel man! I’d end these cruel pains By hitting on a different plan Front that which now obtains. The stomach, greatly amplified, Anon should occupy The all of that domain inside Where heart anil lungs now Ho. But, first of all, I should depose That diabolic curve And author of my thousand woes, The pneumogastric nerve 1 —Chicago Kews.

A MATTER OF TASTE BY ABBIE C. M'KEEVEK. MAMMA, my dear, what possessed you _ to d<>n that old

daughters near me, it does not matter seriously how I look. But Adaline,don’t forget, t implore yon, to refrain from everything in legard to tern] erauct especially if Mrs. Ferns calls. She has a drunken husband and uses quantities of wine on her table. And, Louise, you hud better take that despisable dog out in the back yard and keep yourself hidden. You are such a trial.” “Yes, mamma,” exclaims the second daughter, Maude, turning her blonde head around in her stately way, “I wish something could be done with Louise, she is certain to mortify us i dreadfully some day.” The mother sigin while Louise whistles an operatic air. “Stop, do hurry off. Oh mercy me! Here is Mrs De Camp now! You must hide behind the curtains in the musicroom and do keep that horrid dog quiet r or 1 shall die.” “Good moriffng,~MfS. ITC Tkvmp. how delighted we are to see you and how charming you are looking.” ‘Equally delighted, lam sure. I have brought my husbands’ nephew with me. Permit me, ladies, to intr< duce to you I Mr. Charles De Camp, of California.” The ladies bow, smile brightly, and : welcome him cordially. Adadue gives I her sister a glance which says “He’s i ich.” “Do you like cur town, Mr. De Camp, and our climate?” “It cannot compare ■with ours, that is the climate, but 1 imagine your town must be a pleasant place in which to dwell, ft seems to have hosts of handsome ladies”—with a very appreciating smile. “Ah does it? Adaline, love, is it not California that is famous for its lovely women a- well as its fruits and Howers? But then we have that which is more than beautyor wealth; real true blue blood. You know several families.” “Mrs. DeCamp,” exclaims Mrs. Mayday, “I am glad to see Fido accompanying you. Has he fully recovered?” “Oh entirely, but I called in a doctor to be quite suie all was done that could be.” “How thoughtful of you. Was it Dr. Lee? One of the servants has spoken of his goodness even to one of their family ?” “No,” coldly, “it was not Dr. Lee; he ! is tcoyoungand altogether too plebe an for my physician. I called in Dr. Scratcherd; he only charged ten dollars.” “Ah, ye". But here comes our darling Mrs. Ferris! Adaline, my dear, bring her forward!” Smiles, bows and introductions follow. “Such delightful weather, how altogether charming it is to have you call to-day; we were speaking of Mrs. DeCamp and vourself before you came,

and saying how mucli we longed to see you. Does your excellent Imsbuua I 1 keep well?” “Quite well, thanks; only he was 1 somewhat under the wheather Sa! urday, ' but he is now fully recovered. Ada line and her mother understand the ‘indisposition’ and smile in gent e sympathy. “But,” continues Mrs. Ferris, “have you not heard the news?” “Heard the news?” languid'y repeats Maud. “No. Anything special?” “Old Mi'. Shorthand is to marry his housekeepers daughter soon.” “Did you ever!” “How horrid!” “Poor man!” “Yes; poor man. She has nothing but her pretty face. I wonder how his children will bear the disgrace?” Mr. DeCamp looks up, smiles under his mustache a- d says: “I believe 1 heard my uncle pitying the-lady this morning.” “Pitying her! Men are so queer. He’s worth million if he is seventy, and sh’e —his housekeeper’s daughter—dreadful!” At this instant, from behind the curtains a fearful sound proceeds; something not quite a sneeze but closely resembling it. The jioodle in Mrs. De Camps, arms ;

. flies out and tens forward barking briskly Mrs. Mayday feels that in such cases even death might be desira’ble, as Louise’s <L g, a huge Newfoundland, jumps out from behind the curtains, and seize; the poodio l>y the neck, begins shaking him savagely. Mrs. De Camp shrieks, almost faints away; the others turn pa’e, but Louise, convulsed with laughter, slaps Majors ears, rescues the poodle and bounds across the room followed by her dog. Mr. De Camp, man-like, remains an amused spectator. “That dreadful girl, oh mamma!” “That horrid dog-!” “Oh Mrs. De Camp your pet is unharmed. We are so aony,” sobs Maud. “Could anything have been more unfortunate!” “Mrs. De Camp, don’t go just yet; you will soon feel stronger. Ah, must you indeed! Can we do nothing to attone for that child’s conduct? We’ll have the dog shot if you wish. Mr. De Camp remember us kindly as possible. 1 should so like to hear more about your fine country.” Mr. De Camp bows, smiles, promises to call again, and accompanies his aunt to her carriage. “Mrs. Ferris. Ah. you surely will not desert us! How miserable we shall be without you. Good morning!” “Gone, goody! I never saw such unpleasant women. But mamma, what shall we do with Louise” I recommend a convent.” “Yes,” frets Adaline, “she quite lost us Mr. De Camp’s friendship. I wish Major’d killed that ugly poodle; the

way Mrs. De Camp carries on makes me sick.” Afternoon of the same day, young Mr. DeCamp, passing their side yard, is struck on the shoulder with a rose, a red, royal beauty; a titter follows. “Oh! so it’s you, is it?” he says leaning on the fence and smiling, “’flow is your dog?” “Penitent. How’s Mrs. DeCamp’s poodle.” “Becovered, I think. What were you doing behind those curtains?” “Oh, tho girls hid*me there. I hadn’t time to get out of the room. I promised to keep quiet but I didn’t, the air was too wintry,” laughing. “The giris are wise to hide you.” “Why?” “You are so—lovely.” “Nonsense.” “Truth. Would you not like c. ride behind Undo’s bays?” “Prime —but they won’t let mo.” “I think they will. We'll see.” “Wishes to pay bis addre-ses to Louie! Oh, mamma! She is only 16.” “1 cannot|help his choice; men are past finding out or understanding in such matters, but he is really sincere and Louise is about the luckiest girl I ever knew.” However, Mrs. DeCamp quite refuses to patronize her future niece, whose horrid dog so nearly killed her darling, preciom Fido. Aiiotralmn Cities. The prevailing state socialism is filling the larger towns with good things—excellent museums, splendid libraries, free reading-rooms, parks, botanical gardens, manifold places of interest or amusements. The-e are for the multrtmla, and the.ni’lHitudc in Australia it unquestionably becoming southern in its taste for excitement and amusements. For the rich are music, and theater, and clubs as expensive and almost as luxuri ius as those of Pall Mall or Piccai dilly. For the children of ali, excellent I schools and universi ie«. So rich and | poor alike crowd into tho towns, which I become large without becoming crowded, i so wide is the room for expansion, so 1 perfect the appliances of tram, rail, and 1 boat for the suburban residence. Thus l the cities have acquired not only an exI ces of population, but also a social and | political dominance which is neither i BrMsh nor American, and lor wiiich : only a continental parallel can be found. ■ To an outside observer the. resulting I condition of things seems artificial and I not without grave dangers, but curiously ; interesting, as illustrating new forms of I national growth, possibly incidental to , extreme democratic development. The concentration of population has enabled the artisan c'ass to secure uneqnaled present advantages, but there is justification for the view entertained by main’ Australians that it will sap the foummti ns of i ei maoent prosperity unless a cheek can be found. The gravest problem before Australia is apparently how to get a sufficient agricultural popula- | tion to stay npon the land. The temj per of the country is not favorable to | the patient ind T-try of the farm, with : ks remote results and slow accumulation. Within the few years the cm ions phenomenon has occasionally presented itself of a serious dearth of labor in country places while in the towns masses of unemplovcd were besieging the government offices with deman’ds for relief works. Sent, sometimes at the government expense, to the rural districts, the “unemployed” soon drift back to the mingled wants and delights of city life. — Century. Why blie Knew (ho Hay.

The poor, little faded woman nad been brpUßlrt into court, as witness in a very disagreeable case, involving serious issues. The entire case depended on the fact that a paper had been signed on a certain day, and this the forlorn little woman was prepared to prove. “You saw the paper signed?” asked the opposing counsel, in cross-examina-tion. “Ye‘, sir.” “And you take your oath that it was the 30th of August?” “I know it was, sir.” The lawyer, who thought another da'e could be proved, assumed an exas] erating smile, and repeated her words: “You know it was! And now, be so good as to tell us just how you know it.” The poor, litt'e creature looked from one countenance to another with wide, sorrowful eyes, as if she sought understanding and sympathy. Then her gaze lested on the kindly face of the judge. “I know,” she said, as if speaking to him alone, “because that was the day the baby died.”— Atlanta Constitution. Even a genius needs common sense at times in order not be mistaken for a fool.

The Ocean Ferry. * In an article in tho April Scrthner'B John H. Gould says; “From tho records kept in tho barge office in New York City it appears that ocean travel varies according to tho business situation in this country. Following is an exhibit of tho number of cabin passengers that arrived at this port during tho years between 1881 and 1890, inclusive: 1881, 51,229; 1882, 57,947; 1883, 58,596; 1884, 59,503; 1885, 55,160; 1886, 68,742; 1887, 78,792; 1888, 86,302; 1889, 96,686; 1890, 99,189. From one point of view, at least, these figures are very striking. In 1889 there was a great sho"' in Paris that attracted world-wide attention and interest. In the spring of that year every steamship agent announced to prospective passengers that all vessels would be crowded, and that the volume of passenger traffic between tho tw'Ocontinents would swamp tho capacity of every lino. But the figure * speak for themselves. Viewing tho increase of tho oceanic travel, it appears that tho financial depression of 1884 kept, many people at homo who otherwise might have crossed tho ocean. After that distressing season hail passed travel resumed its normal condition, and an increase may bo noted k wfthAsach year. ” Don't Throw Jjp the Sponge I That .hideous ogre, Giant Despair, often fastens his clutch upon the chronic invalid. Constantly plagued by dyspossia, biliousness, and constipation—nervous and sleepless, too--wb.at wonder is It that, having tried in vain a multitude of useless remedies, he is ready, figuratively epeaking, to “throw up the sponge," Let the xmfortunato “take heart of grace.” Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters can and will put a terminus to his trials.
