VOL. l. MANNING, CL.ARENDON COUNTY. S. C., WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1885. NO. 48. One of the Pack. I see how it is: I'm one of the pack A paltrv paying card: nothing more. You shuim.: and deal, then tak' me back, Or toss me to lie where I was before. There are r'yal heads at your mimic court. But they fare no better; they're in the same fix: For you vary the usual order of sport: You take what you please while you play your tricks. No doubt it serves well as a source of fun t To match your lovers, this one against that: Though perhaps. when the evening's amuse ment is done c And the pack put aside, we seem rather flat. But suppose that by chance in the dead of the night. V When yo, reaun.with disdain of our being We shouldb yaj~buirepose, rising up in our might. Au # tp d uopfface that our feelings axe hUr? c For. watever you fancy we each have a soul, a And the rules that apply here are oddly so planned That while we seem bent to your finger's e control, . f And are played withyet we two are takingI a hand. Don't you see that a sequence of hearts you may break.! While attempting one mean little trump spot to save. Or succumb to an equally luokiess mistake V And lt a king go lor the sake of a knave? Does Tom's Diamond take you, or Is it my t heart? Thadeuoe, after all, will perhaps end the race: Then, again, gou mair yilfd to young Alger- c non Smarte - Or the oe-ayed old banker's Cylopean aee. ThegaTis to be Lottery-so you said- d Or Matrimony? No: both. 1 declare! y Why, the next thing I kuow you'll take to Old Maid, And leave me to sorrow and Solitaire. s Cress purposes still: This never will do. You've begun Vingt-et-un; I'm at Thirty one- -4 d Just teniyearpap Ah, 'wish I knew Some smoother way to make matters run! You change the game like a pantomime; And now It's Euchre, I really believe, h For you're trying to cheat me half of the time. With a"little joker"-a laugh in your sleeve. n Let us end this'nonsense! What do you say? Leave me out, and go on with the rest, t Or throw the whole heap of cards away, And stake your all on a man as the best. You can't manage love according to Hoyle. 9 And your effort to do so you surely would & re. t Besides. what's the use "of such Intricate toil?- . You; shall w:I.all th6 games if I only win e you! -Geo. Parson Lathrop in Editor's Drawer. Harper's Magazine for September. c A1E WAS ANARTIST. He had a studio on Chestnut street before his arrival it er known as an a attic. It had that trade mark peculiar to an artist's den, namely, dust and disorder. But this morning there was a suspicion of neatness in the arrange ment' of many unfinished canvases; some of the dust and dirt had been re moved. though a few spider-webs lurk- t ed in the corners. However, taking all into consideration, it was not so bad e a place as it might be. So thought its sole, lord and master, by name David MarVin, as 'he sat be f6re his easel, putting in a little darker backgroundto the lovely face he was painting. Perhaps you might not call it lovely, but I assure you that the art ist thought those deep brown eyes, the auburn hair, and the firm red lips something extraordinary. tSvou think a broom and water q ha&souewbat Improved the appear- Y ance of my room, Miss Lothorp, ' he was.saying'to the original of the por traif.

"Yes; you will please excuse me, but remember that I have a pressing en agement that I cannot slight. Good ye. "I am sorry, Miss Lothorp," said )avid, in a husky voice, surprise and idignation making his naturally stupid angue dumb. "Good morning. Oh, unt! What have you done?" he ex laimed, as he closed the door afterthe oung lady. "I cn hardly say I thank ou for airing those spicy anecdotes of Iy juvenile days," he coutinued, bit erly, as he busied himself before his asel. "What will she thin ?" was ie next, thought. "And she'll never ome back!" he unluckily nuttered loud. Alas, poor Dave! "You blamed foo!, Dave Marvin!" xclaimed Aunt Eliza, grasping the rule of her umbrella. "You b-amed yol!" "Aunt!" "Y'are.

"Yes I realiy thought that you would ever co again. You were so terri ly put out, you know," he was saying ie hot blood mounting to his brow. "Why, what made you think that?

"Ah, yes-that is-" .he stammer 3, then quitted his work, and brush nd palette were thrown down. "Miss Lothorp!" "Mr. Marvin!' He stopped and looked doubtingly round him. "Miss Lothorp. don't you-I man 'ould you mind hearing more about iat little fellow who carried his sisters -the way she said?" No answer; the eyes were hidden by ie long lashes, and a faint, shell-like nt crept over her face. "You will not say that you have an gagement?" he asked, thinking he d the upper hand, and consequently eling brave. "O , will you not believe me? It as really the truth. Why should I Lake an excuse when I like-" A full stop. "What? Whom?" "What were you going to say, Mr. arvin?" she inquired, ignoring his estion. "Something about yourself, ou'll remember." "It was-not until you finish your mtence," he said. "Mr. Marvin, yourself or nothing." "Myself! Do you mean it, Mabel? I as oing to say that I love you, my ueen b!" That incorrigible young man was on is knees, grasping the two warm alms of Miss Lothorp. Her dark head as bent over him, the bonnie brown res that David both loved and feared ere looking down in his blue orbs ith unutterable tenderness. What ore was needed? "Darling, your turn now," he whis ered. "You liked-whom?" "I! 0, David!

The postures were something artis e, since their attitudes were struck ite innocently, somewhat after that ainting of Romeo and Juliet in Friar awrence' s cell. The friar alone was seded.

"Yes, indeed, any amount of them," t answered, with a fond glance at avid. "One at a time, darling, 1 think ould be best," he suggested. "Tate e first for a tria!."--aerly Mazga ne. Great Men's Feet. "Rev. Henry-Ward Beecher, the pas r of Plymouth," continued Dr. Palm , "has soft, chubby feet. He always ears a broad-soled, easy-fitting shoe the finest kid made, and suffers but ttle from corns or bunions. I bright up his finger and toe nails about ace a month. Mr. Beecher is a most teresting talker. The last time he 'as here he related many pleasant an ~dotes of his home in Peeks kill, whe're e resides with his family during the ammer.

"Rev. D~r. Taimage, who recently ied for Europe to rejoin his family iLondon, is also one of my custom t-s. His feet iu some respects resem I a canoe, being long and narrow.
