Seventeeu summers, speeding storms, spreading sunshine, successively saw Simon's sm all, shabby shop still stand ing stanch, saw Simon's selfsame squeaking sign still swinging, specify ing: 'Simon's Short, Smithfield's surviving shoemaker, shoes sewed, soled supcrfinely." Simon's spry, sedulous spouse, Sally Shtrt, sewed shirts, stitched sheet", stuffed sofas. Simon's six stout sturdy sons Seth, Sauiuci, Saul Seradach, Silas sold sundries. Sober Seth sold sugar, starch, spice; simple Simon's sold saddles, stirmps, screws; sagacious Stephen sold silks, satits, shawles; skeptical Saul sold silver salvers: sel fish Shadrsah sold salves, shoe-slriugs, soap, saws, skates; Silas sold Sally Shoit's stuffed sofas. Soms seven summers since Simon's second son Samuel saw Sophia Soph onia Springs, Sim showed strange symptons. Sam seldom staid storing, selling saddcls. Sim sighed eorrowfully, sought Sophia Sophronia's society, sung several surreptitious serenades slvly. Simon stormed, scolded severely; said Sam seemed so silly singing such shameful, senseless songs, Strange Earn should slight such splendid summer sales! Strutting spendthrift! Shatterbrained simple ton! 'Softly, softly, sire," said Sally "Sam's smitten, Sam's spied some sweet sylph." 'Sintimental schoolboy!" Miarled Simon; "Smitten! stop such stuff" Speaking so, Simon Fent Sally's snuff-box spinning, seize! Sally's scissors, smashed Sally's spectacles scattering several spools." "Sneaking scoundrel! Sam's shock ing sickness shall surcease!" --'Scowling Simon stopped specking, starting swiftly shopward, Sail sighed sadly. Summoning Sam, she spoke f-rceet sympathy. "Sam," said sne, Sire Simon seem ed singularly snappy; so, sonny, stop strolling streets, stop . smoaking sc gars, spending specie superfluously, stop sprucing so stop .singing seren ades, stop short! Sell saddles, sonny, sell saddles sensibly: sec Sophia So phronia Spiigg soon she's sprightly; she's stable; so solicit, sue, secure Sophia tpef-dily, Sam.', "So soon? Shall Sally's son Sam so surely seek soup so soon?" said Sam tanding stock still. "So soon, surely said S ally, smiling specially since sire shows such spirist" So Sam, somewhat scared, sauntered slowly. Shaking stupendously Sam soliloquizes: "Sophia Sophronia Short, Samual Short's spouse, sounds splen did! Suppose she should say say, she sha'n't she sha'n't she sha'n't!" Soon Sam spied Sophia, starching shirts, singing softly. Seeing Sam she stopped, started, saluted Sam smilingly. Sam stammered shocking "Spl-spl-splendid summer season. Sophia." 'Somewhat sultry." suggested So phia. "Sar-sar-tin, Sophia," said Sam. Silence seventeen seconds. "Selling saddles still, Sam?" Sar-sar-tin," said Sam, starting sud denly. "Season's somewhat sudorific, said Sam, stealthily stanching steam iag sweat. Speaking sensibly. "Sartin,"said Sophia smiling signi ficantly. "Sip some sweet sherbet, Sam." Silnce sixty seconds. "Sire shot sixty Sheldrakes Satur day." said Sephia' Neb., Friday, July 5, "Sixty? Sho!" said Sam. Silence seventy seconds. 'See Sister Susan's sunflowers," aid Sophia, socially scattering such stiff silence. Sophia's sprightly saucincM stim ulated S4m strangely; so Sam sudden ly spoke sentimentally. "Sophia," said Sam, spontaneously. "Susan's sunflowers seem saying: "Samuel Short. Sophia Sophronia Sprigg, stroll mrcnaly. Seek some sequestcd spot, ?rrae sylvan shade. Spaikling spring shall sing soul rihooting strains; sweet songsters shall silence secrete sighings, superangelic sylphs shall '" Sophia snicker ed; so Sam'stopped. "Sophia," said Sam, solemnly. ".S.uu," said Sonhia. "Sophia, stop smiling; Sam Short's sincere. 'Sam's seeking some sweet spouse, Sophia." Sophia stood silent. "Speak. Sophia, speak! Such sus pense stimulates sorrow." "Seek Sire, Sam seek sire." said Sophia, soothiugty. So Sam sought Sire Spriggs. Sire Spriggs said: "Sartin." BHcklla' Arnica SalT.

There is a wealthy maa in Buffalo wlo, ever since he became well-to-do, has been pestered by the entreaties of local insurance agents to toko out a policy la favor of his wifo and littlo ones. Not Ion? ago, says the Buffalo Courier, be determined to bo re venged on them. He called on a certain agent and told him thnt at last he was thinking seriously of taking out a policy, say for 10,000, but that before deciding the matter bo wished to examine the induce ments of tvrs cr thrco other companies. ' Certainly," said the agent, "but do coma and dine with mo at the CTlyClub to-moi row." "With pleasure.' Tho rich man walked away, and visiting throo or four mora agents told them the same story that ho was thinking of taking out a poW icy of 110,000 or so, but was not qui de ckled yet in which compnyho aiftttld in sure. Each and all of them extended him an earnest invitation to "Coma and dine with me to-morrow evening," or "What do you say to a little supper at Blank's, where we can talk it over ?" or, "I'm going to open at bottle of Madeira to-morrow evening. Come around and I'll explain our plan in XttIL" The wealthy man winked to him self as ho left theso agents, and accepted all their civilities, and for two weeks his fsjaily hardly saw him, f jr ho continued ts htHfrtJ and procrastinate, and tho agents sontinucd to dine him and wine sirs, until at length, having enjoyed ha Bcjf immensely at tno expense of the insurance companies, he one day sat down in his omco and wrote each of the agents a little note, in which he stated that be had "been convuvcod of thebettsff advantages to be gained by insurmg hi smother company," sad regretted that ha toould not take out a policy with yen. The agents each read this note with tsars In their eyes and swear-words on their lifs,snd placed s sum ranging from Kis ISO to the debit of expense account. Ignorance Kept Dim Heasat. A story in told of a postmaster whose lack of knowledge of working bis own "nest" lost him an increase of 8100 on his salary next year. When ho seat his returns is be lacked 31 cents of tho amount called for by the law to permit an adjustment of his salary. His reports showed the yearly reoelpuofhisoaoetobo (2,089.20. As the department allows a fraction over a half dollar to be counted as a dollar, the post master would nave been tlOO morsia his accket If he had had shrewdness enough te toy 31 cents' worth of stamps out of his swa pocket. Since he sent his report ha has learned his mistake, and every body hi the county now can lock him. His wasths saly case sftbekind in the 200. Itesassi arachmerrimant among the clerks at the 1889. H.
