Alphraetta, Ga., Sept. 22.—Calvin Antry is lying at the home of his father, Samuel A. Antry, at the point of death. His forehead is crushed in, his nose is smashed into a jelly and his eyes are protruding. Calvin met this misfortune while trying to play the role of a ghost. Calvin and his brother, Robert, planted their affections upon the same maiden. For the past two weeks protracted services have been held in Clear Spring church. The young lady was escorted home every “© dood Will Tell.” Yes. the ol) adage 1s right, but it the liver as disordered and the blood therebs corrupted, te bad **blood will tli’? in diseases of the skin and throat, ta tumors and ul- cers, and in tabercies 1 jungs (first stages of consumption) even | although th» subject be descended lin a straight line trom Richard | Ceeur de Lion, or the noblest Ro- | man of them ail.

They were sitting on the sofa in the dim twilight, when he gently stole his arm about her waist. There was a few minutes of silence, she probably waiting for him to make the long-looked for proposition. It did not come, so she murmured: “Do you think it right to put your arm about my waist?” “Yes, I see no wrong,” he re- plied. “You have a purpose, then, in it?” she whispered. “A selfish purpose, perhaps,” he returned. I am practising, so that when I come to the proper person I will not be awkward.” “You will remember, sir, that fa- miliarity breeds contempt,” was the angry retort.—Philadelphia Bulle- tin.

Iam glad to use such a reliable article Da. charles C.

Children Starving The postal laws of the United States makes it larceny to take a newspaper from the post office and refuse to pay for it. A publisher in lilinois, a short time ago, brought suit against forty-three subscribers, who refused to pay their indebted- ness, and obtained judgment in each cuse for the full amount of the claim. Of these, twenty-eight made affidavit that they owned no more property than that allowed by law, thus pre- venting attachment. They then, under the decision of the supreme court, were arrested for petty larceny night by the brother who first reach- | #24 bound over in the sum of $300 ed. her.

The figure in white was then seen to run across _ the graveyard howling pitéously, then falling on all fours, it made for the passing couple. The girl scream- ed and fainted. Robert picked up a rock and let it fly with unerring aim. Ascream of pain from the ghost told that it was human. Robert ran up to it and discovered it was his own brother. The girl was taken home in one wagon in hysterics, and Cal- vin was taken to -the Lome. of his father, bleeding. and amcorscious.

THE OLD HAT TRADE. Itinerant City Merchante Who Buy and Sell Second-Hand Head-Gear. “Anny auld hats! Anny auld hats!” This cry may be heard every day in this city, and many are disposed to pity the ragged old merchants who wander along giving it utterance. Yet these itinerant hatters are not so much to be pitied after all. Many of the old hats they carry slung in a bag over their shoulders have cost them nothing, while the residue have been purchased fora pittance. There is a market for old hats in New York, and a large one, too. There are several wholesale dealers in the trade whose yearly rofits make a considerable figure. ne of these men has an establishment in a cellar on Fourth avenue. He may be seen every day sitting on a stool at the head of the steep steps leading to his store—an old man, shabbily dressed, with wrinkled leathery features, and thin, long, gray hair straggling over stooping shoulders. “This is a pretty good stand fora retail business in old hats,” he said to a reporter, ‘for right yonder on the Rialto Ihave my customers. Almost every day a score of bi'sted actors come here to be fitted out in a new head gear. They usually trade off their old hats with a ‘quarter’ or a ‘half’ thrown in, and I fit them out in killing shape. Actors are my best retail patrons. 1] do a wholesale business also, but that is mostly in trading off a lot of hate with some other dealer. I will buy, sell, trade or barter with any one whe wants to deal with me.” “What style of hat brings you the largest protit?”’ “High silk hats are the most desira- ble. No matter how battered they are when brought here I can find a place for them.” : + “How much do you pay for old hats?” ‘That depends upon how many there are, and who brings them here. Iwould rather buy from a walking merchant than from any one else. J know they don't pay much and can sell cheap. An old high silk hat is worth about fifteen or twenty cents, an old derby about eight or ten cents, and an old straw hat fivecents. These, when revamped, will bring a profit of about 100 to 150 per cent.’”"—M. F.

A Conscientious Detroit Man's Reliable ‘Weather Prognostication, “Say.”” he called, as he stood on the post-office steps on a sultry July morn- ing, and beckoned to a pedestrian across the street. The other man came over, was con- ducted to a seat on the window sill in the corridor, and the first continued: “I was looking over my diary for 1886 to-day, and I find that on the 13th day of February I encountered you on Woodward avenue.” “Perhaps you did.” “You asked me then if I thought the backbone of winter was broken. 1 was in a hurry, and took the query under advisement. I am very sorry that the matter slipped my mind, as I generally answer such questions in- side of a month.” “And what did you want of me?” “To apologize, sir, and to say to you that I am now ready to make my reply. Yes, sir, I think the backbone of winter is broken, and I shouldn't be 8 bit surprised if we had an early spring!’ The other got up and tried to say something, but the effort was a sad failure, and by and by he turned and walked off and went up the street and tarned a corner without ever looking back.—Detrost Free Press. | If you are interested in a business ed- ucation, that will be worth a tortune to youit taken, cut this out and mailto | me, and I will send you by mail, F.ge, jan elegant illustrated Catalogue, and | beautiful specimens ot penmanship. | Addre:s D.
