fact, I feel contented with myself
aud all the world Into the bargain.'
'Is she a blonde or brunette?' ask
ed Will. I prefer the former tyle
of beanty,' he added.
Another reason why you will like
my wife, her hair Is of the loveliest
golden shade, and she han the bluest
of eyeM.'
'Of course she's younff ? Though
it's needless for me to ask Mich a
question ; for you surely would not
marry an elderly person, that is to
ay, one as old as j ouifiolf, for you
are ou the ahady aide of forty, you
know.'
'Well, Will, she U only 23. and a
widow.'
'What, j on have, married a widow,
Dave? Oh, have you forgot the
advice the elder Woller gavp to hi?
fiou Samuel? Oh, Dave, that you
should h:tve reached vears of din-
crel ion to be taken in in that man- j
tier! You have tied jourself to j
I KOnu' ,,es'f-,,,in reature, who will
either lead you a nice life, or put a
fw soothing droops In your cotlee
some hue morning. ;
Now, Will, It I didn't know that
your remarks were made out of pure
sport, 1 should blacken those two
iiiiscniei-iiiaKiiig, i w iiikiiii-: eyes ui
yours for casting aspersions upon
the character of my dear little wife.
If all the widows were like the one
yo'i shall be introduced to to-mor-
row evening, then it would be Well
I for all men to take old Weller's
advice, for she is enough to turn any
l mauV .head, however unimpresriion-
t able he may be.'
The friends parted.
I At the appointed hour ou the fol
lowing evening. Will Norton made
his appearance at Dave' hotine
.oiioe.
th friends
On being introduced to Ii
wife, Will exclaimed:
'1 ay, Dave, what was your wile's ,
name hefore nlie married you?' a-k-
eu Will, wheu Mrs. Iiedburu had
withdrawn, aud left them to talk
over their wine and cigar?.
Mr. Tilton,' he leplied.
'She must have married again
since 1 saw her last wb'eh was a
year afjo and then hoi name wa?
Uale. I'm positive n the same
person.'
'Now, Will, I'm sure you are
miHiakeu. She wan uever married
but once before I mel her, she assur
ed me. It miiht be one ol those
Htrange resemblaucos now and then
met with. Yen, I repeat, you are
miHtaken for once in your life. I
believe every word that conies from
her lips.'
As soon as they had finished their
wine and cigars, they adjourned to
lite parlor, where the) were enter
tained by Mrs. Redburn, whose
voice wap finely cultivated, and who
was a skillful performer upon the
piano.
With conversation and music -both
vocal aud instrumental the
evening passed pleasantly, and Will
Norton confessed to his friend that
Mrs. Kedburn'H powers of fascina
tion wero very great indeed in fact
that she was perfectly irresistible.
But in his own mind he was cer
tain that he had met Mrs. Redburn
under the name of Dale.
Nothing more was said about the
resemblance.
Some few weeks passed away aud
found Dave just as much in love
with his wife as when they were
first married, when, one evening, he
took a gentleman home to dine
with him.
Pray pardou what you may think
boldness on my part; but what was
your wife's name when you mar
ried her ?'
Dave had informed him that she
was a widow before ho married her.
'Mrs. Tilton,' he replied.
'It seems to me that I met her
under a different name Mrs. Wal
don though I must be mistaken.'
I hardly know what to think of
this,' murmured Dave to himself
when bis guest- had departed.
'Here are two men who think they
have met rav wife under two differ
ent names. She assured me that she
bad unfolded all her past life to me.
It isn't possible she has deceived me
in any maun or, but still it's strange
6he should bear such a likeness to
two different women. Confound
the thing 1 I really don't know
what to make ot it.'
'She will think that I donbt her
veracity; and good-bye to lovo and
happiness when anything that favors
of mistrust comes botween us,' he
thought.

He really did not know how to

nat still, puzzled and bereft of speech.

said, at last. 'Mr. Norton said that
ho thought he had known you tinder

lie raised his eyes to hers as he

very much like an expression of

A Favorable Outlook Tor the
OarJIeld Ticket.
Garfield will have, coaming New
York, Indiana, and Connecticut
among the republican states, 222
T electoral votes. Let him lose In
diana and Connecticut and he will
have 191. In addition to these he
may lose Oregon aud California and
Ptill have 1S;', enough to elect.
If he lose New York and carry
the other states named, Garfield will
have 187 electoral votes. If he lose
Now York, Connecticut, and Flori
da, and carry Virginia, he will have
18G vote. Or he may loe New
York, Connecticut and Indiana and
carry Vircinia, Florida and New
Jersey, have still lflO votes.
The democrats can only succeed
by carrying all the Southern states
and New York, New .ler.-ey and
uregon, or isunneciicui. ijohij;
f, ..... r ,.-.. .
New York they must carry all the
Southern states, Now Jersey, Indi
ana, Connecticut, Maine and all the
Pacific etates of California, Oregon
aud Nevada to have 187 votes. The
prospect is certainly not discourag

"Did you know," said one of our
respected citizens to us the other
day, " that the little boys from ten
to fifteen years of age, and some
older, in our city, have canght a
regular gambling mania? Why, I
beard not long ago that one of these
chicks that hasn't shed his pin
feathers yet, sold his pony, and an
other was robbing bis pa's cash
drawer uearly every day to obtain
money to carry on their gambling
operations. They also think it is a
big thing to smoke, chew and get
tipsy."
In view of this information, we
urge upon parents the necessity of
watching the movements of their
darling boy6 aud rescue them from
these blighting yicca that some of
them indulge in, aud it will bo a
valuable lesson to them if they are
arrested by the officers of the law
if parents cannot restrain them.

young men who are about to cast
their first vote. I want to givo you
a word of suggestion and advice. I
heard a very brilliant thing said by
a boy the other day up in onof our

me, 'General, I havo a great mind to

was not the brilliant thing. Laugh

A young lady moving in the raot
exalted -ocial circle of Galyeaton,
after much toil and practice at the
pinna, learned to play with consid
erable dexterity a piece entitled
"I'icuic I'olku." It I? something af
ter the style ol the celebrated "Rat
tle of Prague." The listener cau
readily distinguish the roar of the
artillery, tho rattle of the musketry,
tho shouts of tho soldiers, and the
groans of the dying. In th9 "Picnic
Polka" the noise of the wind among
the trees and the joyous carols of tha
birds aro reproduced, tho finale be
ing a thunder-shower which dis
turbs tho -sylvan revelers. It hap
pens that a country cousin is in tows
just unw, aud the young lady
thought she would play the piece to
him ami hear the comment. He In
a plain, simple-minded youth, and
although not rory bright, is very
appreciative. She told him what
the piece wa and then proceeded to
give him the "Picnic Polka." Tb
first notes are rather ilow and he
itating, the idea sought to be cou
veyed being the solemn .-olitude of
forest, through which the geullo
zephyr (not heifer) highs. After tht
got through with this preface, she
asked him if he did not almost im
agine himself in a lodge in -ome
va-tt wilderness. He replied that
he thought all that slowness meant
the delay in getting off. Said he:
"There i always some plaguy cuss
who over-sleeps himself and keeps
everybody eho waiting."
She tlid not care to discuss the
point with the iguorunt fellow, so,
to conceal her emotions, she once
more let herself out on the piano.
The woods were filled yvith muir.
The mocking bird whistled as if his
throat would split, the cuckoo filled
the sylvan bower- with his repeat
ed cry, while ever and anon the
mournful cooing of the dove inter
rupted the matin -ong of the lark.
"There, now. I giie t yon know

ifj the time at a picnic I've heard it
from the mouth of a dimijohn, or

Her firm impul-e was to hurl the
piano tool at him, but it passed off,
and once more she went at the piano
as if it was the young man's, head
aud was insured for double its val
ue. The thunder growled, the light
ning Hashed (from her eyes) and the
tlnt heavy drops are heard upon
the leaves. She banged and manled
the keys at a fearful rate; peal after
peal of deafening thunder perturbed
the atmosphere and re-echoed iu
still louder reverberations until It
wouud up iu one appalling clap as
a graud finale. Then, turning to the
awe-struck youth, she said : "I sup
pose you have heard something like
that before?"
"Ye, that'a what the fellow with
linen pants said when he sat down
on the custard pie."
The audience found himself alone,
but he picked up his hat and saun
tered out into tho street, densely un
conscious that he had "aid anything
