SOMETIMES my sister Mabel, who's Grown up, looks almost like a fright. She wears a pair of ma's old shoes Because her own are always tight. She does her hair up in a knot No bigger than a chicken's egg And doesn't call it "'limb" when what She means is nothing but a leg. But, jim-mun-nee, you ought to see How she can change! She's pretty near As sweet as any girl could be When comp'ny's here. Sometimes when ma is feelin' glum And her and me have had a spat She slaps my ears and makes things hum 4 And says that I'm a little brat. One day she told me to my face I'd drive her ravin' crazy yet And chased me all around the place Because a pitcher got upset. But, gee, how lovely she can be! It's "Willie, pet," and "Willie, dear," And not & pinch or slap for me? When comp'ny's here. Pa often growls about the way The meat is cooked and kicks because Be has so many bills to pay. And when the coffee's cold he Jaws, And if he has to hunt his socks Or some one's used his brush or comb It's horrible the way he knocks And darkens our once happy home. But, Jim-mun-nee, you'ought to see- " How quick his grouches disappear And how dee-llghtful he can be When comp'ny's here. I s'pose some time Til have to die, Because all people must, they say. And have a home up in the sky And get a golden harp to play. There won't be no cold coffee then. And Mabel's shoes won't hurt her feet. And even in the mornings, when She has no switch on, she'll be sweet Oh, gee, how long it seems to me "Forever" is! But I won't care. Because there'll always probably Be comp'ny there. - ?S. E. Klser in Judge. Rude Haste. They were on their honeymoon. He had bought a catboat and had taken her out to show her how well he could handle a boat putting her to tend the sheet A puff of, wind came, and he shouted In no uncertain tones, "Let go the sheet!" No response. Then again, "Let go that sheet, quick!" Still no movement A few minutes after, when both were clinging to the bottom of the overturned boat, he said: "Why didn't you let go that sheet when I told you to, dear?" "I would have," said the bride, "if you had not been so rough about it Ton ought to speak more kindly to your wife."?New York Evening Post The Voice of Experience.

While the printers were in the penitentiary they issued a publication, but suddenly it -was discontinued and upon inquiry it was found there was not a printer left in imprisonment. It is said that there are enough bankers there to start a clearing house, enough preachers to form a minsterial association, and brokers to operate a stock exchange. The moral is obvious, even if one does have to improve on Mark Twain to point it out. Mark said: "Be good and you'll be lonesome." He should have said, "Be good and you'll be printers." But really this is well Jor the craft, and we note it with pleasure. As a class printers are the most intelligent class of workmen we have, and we are glad to know that when it comes to being good that they are in a class to themselves.?Times and Democrat.
