old wooden roer Widow Bean had
pushed forward.I The Widoiv, common -
Iv known as aunt Polly, had but' a poor
little- home, and earned her living by all
< the shifts knownfto self -respected pov-
erty. Despite twenty years of sewing,.
knitting and washing for other people,
she was bright and oheerful always, and.
the woman now rocking slowly in her
' ,.one easy -chair had done well to :come to •
her.
She was tall 4nd palo, Mandy, and
• plainly' past. her first youth. Her eyes
were a faded- 14 4, her hair a faded
brown; her complexion a folded fairness.
Ten yearsbefore she had been pretty
with the charm of fresh. girlhood ; now
her shoulders bent just a little and her
mouth had a: weary droop
"Why, now, Mandy," Aunt Polly
said, picking: up the knitting she had

groaned the young man the next morn-

sir," replied the physician,..after feeling
his caller's pulse, examining his tongue
and'pondering deeply a few moments,
" is that you give up all thoughts of
business for the day, return to your resi-
dence, retire to your apartment, have
some water heated to the laoiling point,
procure a numbeir of clean cotton ban--

A good joke occurred in Detroit the
other day. Savage & Farnum, import-
ers of Percheron horses, advertise their
breeding business in about one thousand
agricultural and country newspapers,
and receive a,full file of each paper. So
many papers after a time become cum-
bersome and in the way, and they are
sold to mannfacturers for wrapping
paper. They are taken from Savage &
Farnum's office in' United States mail
bags, and Wednesday last, when fifty of
these bags were lying on the sidewalk
waiting for the dray to carry them off, a
reporter of one of the political papers
spied them and at once jumped to the
conclusion that it was ,a cOuple of tons
of political matter, and was,being frank-
ed through the mails without postage, or
some sort Of skull-cluggery which. he
cOuld not account for, spread the alarm,
and rvery Bonn had* crowd of indignant
