WOMAN GOSSIP. , Buttercup. ' Jenntewas watchto? the cows borne, Down by the meadowbars alone, And her eyes were as blue as her bonnet; Jennie was only a farmer's lass And she let down the bars so the cows could pass Ont of the waving-, bine-eyed grass With buttercups sprinkled upon it. Jennie was watching young farmer Payne Picking a buttercup out of the lane; Stephen in e&xotkft ncl Mty. "Jennie!" she heaVd hT mother Call, But there at her side stoqjl the fanner tan, And her cheeks grew as red as a cherry. Tm coming, mother!" she turned to go, Bat Stephen stood In the path below. And there went Daisy, and Bess and Flo. Over into the clover, His arms were strong as her waist was slimTil keep you 'till every cow Rets in, Or tell me the name of your lover." ? "Jennie! Jennie! tis getting late," Came mother's voice from the farm-house Kate, But Jennie was slender and could not mat?" With the tender strength of a lover;-. And who could do a single thing. With a yellow buttercup under their chin, But nestle the great stronjr arms within And grow as zed as the clover. "Maybe 'tis Ben," then she blushed again, "And maybe 'tis only Stephen Payne" ' Then the dark crept over the meadow lane. And buttercups a sprinkle Not a single sound in the dusky dell , Save the tinkle of Daisy's silver bell, "Tink-a-link-a-tinkler For mother's voice and the bars forgot, The cows are in the meadow lot Knee-deep in the dewv clover. Jennie and Steve came slowly up, Her soft chin yellow with buttercup, His handsome face flushed over. "Where are you, Jennie? 'tis late and cold." "We're coming, mother," said Stephen bold, The cows got into the meadow, x. We stopped to drive them slowly up." Then he slyly hid the buttercup. And kissed her again in the shadow. Modern Argo. Choosing a Wife. Never marry a woman merely because ahe has a handsome face or a wellturned figure, for we soon become in sensible to angelic forma and faces. If. her countenance has life and intelligence, if her walk and carriage are modest and lady-like, and if the whole appearance indicates sahe has a mind, heart and soul, why she is worth all the simpering, mincing flirting, affected misses that ever brought good looks as their only marriage dower. If the fair one you are addressing is rich in houses, lands, bank stock or railroad shares, her worldly gear should not prove an jnsnrmountable objection, but if she is poor like yourself, so much the better. There is nothing like a young couple, about the age of 20, starting in life with fond hearts, clear heads, easy consciences and empty pockets. You have something to hope for, to work for, to live for. Your early struggles with the crosses of this life will only bind you the closer to your young, ardent and loving wife. Exchange. Warming His Hart. Late one evening an omnibus was rumbling down Fifth avenue, New York. A handsome young lady, modestly attired, sat near the. door. As the vehicle' passed the Hotel Brunswick, a man in a white hat, diamond studs and gray side whiskers, caught sight of the pretty face. He entered the omnibus and sat down at the side of the young lady. After paving his fare he hummed "Sweet Violets," and tried to attract her attention. Wrapt in her own contemplations, she gazed at the stately residences on the avenue. Suddenly she felt the tips of gray whiskers on her cheek. "Are you not cold, Miss?" their owner said. n "Oh, no," was the modest reply. "Are your ears cold "Certainly not," the man replied. "But why do you ask T "Because you evidently want them warmed." The only other occupant. of the stage laughed outright at the cutting rotort. The gray-bearded man flushed and pulled the strap. He got out in some haste, and the stage rumbled onward, while the young lady resumed her contemplations. Boston Herald. BoaUm Women. A conundrum that defies solution is why there should be so pronounced a difference between the women of New York and the women of Boston. It is impossible to avoid the recognition of this fact and the speculation regarding its eaaafi. Here are two great cities, , hardly 200 miles apart, peopled by corresponding classes and castes,y people who are supposed to have similar aims, means and methods; yet the contrasts between the residents in different nations could hardly be more obivous. The fundamental cause lies, possibly, in that positive temperament of the native New Englander, and the more genial, impressionable nature of the New Yorker. The New England woman takes life serious. She ieels a certain responsibility for the well-being of the universe. The New York woman is erenely trustful that things in KeneraJ

are all going on very well, and she allows

herself to be happy and to radiate hap piness all around her. The intellectual and moral qualities of the typical daughter of the Puritan are by no means to be v ignored. They have given a strength, a purity, a poM'er -for good, to New England sociaty that can never be too fully appreciated, and in any comparison of the New England rigidity with the New York geniality one is almost convicted of a tendency to undervalue the enduring and to over-estimate the transient courtesies of life. Boston Traveller. Sow Women Should Side. Some twenty-five years ago, in our publications, we mid that women sL-ould ride horseback like men instead oi twisting themselves all out of shape on a side-saddle. The London Lancet has been discussing the subject lately. The editor thinks that it is best to leave the whole matter to those whom it principally concerns. He then goes on to say that men who ride the usual way become knock-kneed if they ride with a straight leg and a long stirrup, and bow-legged if they ride with a short stirrup. In the first instance the rider grips the horse with the knee, while in the latter he holds it by the inner side of the leg below the knee. The Lance brings, to sustain the statement in regard to the ejects of such riding, observations made on the mounted soldiery of the British army. It then proceeds to recommend that girls should change sides, riding alternately on one side and then on the other, for the purpose oi counteracting the tendency to lean over the side opposite that on which the leg is swung. Notwithstanding the tendency to knock-knees and bow-legs on men's saddles, we still believe that they are the best &)r both sexes, because any such possible damage as those described by the Lancet done to the legs is not as injurious as the injury produced upon the vital organs by twisting the body and sitting in a most unnatural position on the side-saddle. Dr. Footers Health Monthly. Z7te Spanish Beauty. We in America are apt judge of the Spaniard by the Mexican and the Cuban. Nothing can be more different. Whatever their faults or virtue, the Hispano-mericans seem to have taken nothing but the language from what oJ the conqueror's blood they may have. All else has come from the native. Unbroken in pride, undebased by evil habits, self-respecting, sober in speech as in food, the Iberian needs only a leader to again take his rightful place in the family of nations. And the woman? Is she beautiful? I hardly know; but she is the most bewildering, bewitching, fascinating of all Eve's daughters. There is a magic in hex step, a poise of foot, a grace of rhythmic motion, a proud tenderness in her dark eye ; a something voluptuous which is yet chaste ; a magic in her smile, such as no race or cline can show. Beautiful ? A man whose blood runs red within his veins may see beaty elsewhere, but he has never felt the perfect charm of woman's loveliness until he has' met love looking from the melting brightness of those matchless orbs which none but Spain's "dark-glancing" maidens bear. There is no neglect here. The dress may not be rich, but there is not a fold ill-placed. To her is paid the reverence of passionate devotion. Still is Spain the land of romance and of song, because her men are brave, hei women worthy to be loved. Cadiz Correspondence of St. Louis Globe-Democrat. THE ANGST TREE. A specimen of the "angry tree," indigenous to Australia, is growing upon a farm in Nevada, and is now eight feet high. When the sun sets its leaves fold together, and the ends of the tender twigs coil up like a pigtail. If the twigs are handled the Jeaves move uneasily for a minute or more. A singular thing concerning the tree was its apparent resentment on being removed f from a pot in which it had matured into a much larger pot. Mardiy had it been placed in its new quarters before the leaves began to stand up in all directions, like the hairs on the tail of an angry cat, and- soon the whole plant was Via a quiver. At the same time it gave out an odor most pungent and sickening, resembling the odor given off by rattlesnakes and other kinds of snakes when tasted. So strong and offensive was the smell that it had to be removed from the house for several days. HE WRONGED NO SI AN. Only a few months before his death the late Judge Jere Black said to oneot his friends : "When I am gone, I want you to be able to say of me, as was said of Samuel when he left the judgeship the record of which runs thus : 'Whose ox-have I taken? or whose ass have 1 taken? or whom have I defrauded! whom have I oppressed? or of whose hand have I received any bribe to blind mine eyes therewith? and I will restore it to you.' And they said. 'Thou has" not defrauded us nor oppressed us neither hast thou taken aught of anj man's l&n&.Harri8burg Patriot

A STEW YORK BAD BOX. . Every well-regulated newspaper office has "our boy." He is always on band when not wanted. He is the boy who goes to the postofijpe a million times a day. At least so he says. Our boy doesn't, vary from the boy in any other newspaper office by a hair's breadth. He calls the editors and reporters by their last names when they are absent. When asked to go anywhere he starts off and goes down stairs three steps at a time. He can't even wait for the elevator. He will tumble into or over anybody on the stairs, and he rushes through the counting-room with such speed that everybody puts his hat and coat on and wonders where the fire is. When he reaches the doo his liasto instantly expires. Ill fifteen minutes he will return and ask : "What's that man's name you sent me after?" He knows every apple-vendor and peanut woman on the block, and when sent on an errand "in ahurry" be can be found an hour afterwards interviewing them as to the origin of peanuts or the success of the present year's apple crop. It was but yesternight that he entered the city editor's room with a handful of crumpled copy. He slammed it down on the desk and ejaculated : "The man that wrote that is a fool!" "What?" yelled the city editor'Who " "At least the managing editor said so," he replied, after a pause. And then he looked as mild as a grocerystore cigar. He has-a habit of handing the members of the staff handfuls of "rock candy," and then, when they are grasping themselves by the feet and hair to get their teeth apart, he will tell them he "thought they knew it was gumarabic" He puts wet mucilage on the chairs, and when the victim attempts to rise and severs his trousers, "our boy" is always ready to tell who did it, and to produce a needle and thread with which he invariably solders coattail, trousers and underclothes together. He has fooled "Central" so often that the telephone transmitter might as well be a bird-house for all the good it does. He is well up in the uses and abuses of the banana-peelings as renting to the fell of man, and never Joses an opportunity to carpet the floor with them. If he can catch a plug hat on a chair he makes a concentrated Concertina of it and then wonders "who slid, it under him." . If we should ever reach the Better

and we expect to see him there with nose in a schooner of ice-cream, and e'U shout, "Hello, ! How'd you get in? Slide in on the editor's pass? Ply you for 10 cents' wuth of peanuts!" 4 If he were only there we would be content to remain a while longer in the bleak, weary world of woe. Neiv York Worfl. TELEPHONING A BOG. The telephone has enabled a physician, s several miles away, to detect whether a child had the croup. The child's mouth was held near the mouthj piece of the instrument, and the physi. cian heard its cough. But more singular than this is the following case of a dog recognizing its master's voice through the telephone : Jack is a coach-dog that found his master by telephone. In some way Jack got lost, and fortunately was found by one of his master's friends who went to his office and asked by telephone if the man had lost his dog. "Yes, where is he?" was the reply. "He is here. Suppose you call him through the telephone." The dog's ear was placed over the ear-piece, and his master said, "Jack! Jack! how are you, Jack?" Jack instantly recognized the voice, and began to yelp. He licked the telephone fondly, seeming to think that his master was inside the machine. At the other end of the line the gentleman recognized the familiar barks, and shortly afterward he reached his friend's office to claim his property. THE WEALTH OX SUPREME JUDGES. With only two exceptions the Judges of the Sugreme Court are wealthy. Judge Blatchf ord is worth at least $13,000,000, and has no children nobody but his wife and self; Judge Matthews is worth at a very low estimate $300,000; Wood, $100,000; Waite, $250,000; Field, $750,000; Judge Gray, $150,000, and he is an old bachelor; Bradley, $500,000. Judges Miller and Harlan are both poor men. Their only income is their salary. So you see we have the enormous sum of $15,000,000 represented by seven men on the Supreme Bench an average of $2,125,000. Washington Critic. "Walk slower, papa," cried the little girl Avhose stops were no match for the strides of her masculine progenitor; ''can't you go nice and slow, like a policeman. Lowell Citizen.
