HE WAS A LITTLE TOO LATE.
A Tale of Conjugal Infelicity in the Penn
sylvania Backwoods.
I was riding along one of the moun
tain roads of northern Pennsylvania
recently, and bad got up into the hills
about four miles from the railroad sta
tion at Geetown, when I met a wild
looking man on horseback with a
bundle in front of him. He was evi
dently a denizen of the lumber woods.
He pulled up his horse when he met
me, and exclaimed in anxious tones:
"Say, boss! Y'didn't meet a feller
drivin' a mule to a buckboard wagon
anywhar on yer way up, did y'?"
"Yes, I did," replied, for I had.
"Were he gettin' along at a tol'able
stiff gait?" asked the anxious woods
man.
"Yes, he was, come to think of it," I
replied.
"Seem ez if he were goin' to git thar'
did he?" said the lumbermau.
"Get where?" I asked.
"To Geetown."
"Tbere's'no doubt -about it," I said.
"Were-tha a woman with him, did
y'notice?" asked the man.
"Yes, there was," replied.
"Cross-eyed?" questioned the woods
man.
"I don't know about that."
"Mole on her nose?"
"That's more than I can say."
"Were the mule lame in t'ie cff hind
leg?"
"I think he was."
"Didn't notice whither the woman
were cross-eyed, hey?"
"Did the mrn have a valler baird?"
"Yes; a lou-, )ellow beard."
"From w'atlittley' see o' the woman,
d'ye think tha were room enough on
her nose for a good-sized mole?"
"Well, yes, I think there was."
"Did the mule wheeze consid'able as
he spun by y'?"
"He acted to me as if he might have
a touch of the heaves:yes."
"Couldn't sw'ar the woman wa'nt
cross-eyed, could y'7"
"Buckboard kind o'rattly in the
spokes, an' actin' ez if a pint or two o
grease wouldn't hurt it?,
"It seemed that way."
"Woman hev on a blue dress'n a
green hat with a red feather in it?"
"I remember the green hat with a
red feather."
"Were tha a gap in the buckboard's
dash, sumpin' like ez if a mule's heels
mowt'a' gone through it some time or
other?"
"Yes, there was a hole in the dash."
"But y' hain't dead sartin th't tha
were a mole on the woman's nose?"
*- "Tha hain't no doubt, though, but
w'at they was goin' to git thar?"
"Not a particle."
"Man in his shirt sleeves an' one
gallus?"
"Yes, I remember that he was in his
shirt sleeves and wore but one suspen
der."
The saxious woodsman paused as if
trying to think of something else to
ask, but at last said:
"Y'll bef to 'scuse me stranger fer
bein' so kinder cur'ous, but mebbe y'
mow't know who them folks be?"
"I haven't the least idea."
"Wull, the mule 'n' the woman 'ni'
the buckboard is mine. The man is
Sim Bilger. He's slopin' with the wo
man, 'n' it's jist my durn luck to be
too late to ketch 'em, fer they've took
the keers at Geetown afore this!"
"What! The woman your wife!"
"Course!"
"Well," said .1, "it don't seenm to me
that I would go to much trouble to
-fetch such a woman back."
"Fetch her back! Great hoop-pole! I
hain't arter her to fetch her back!"
"What were you in such hot pursuit
of her for, then?"
* "Wuli, it's this here way. Time she
sloped with Bill Balls, a year ago las'
spring, she kim back two or three
weeks arterwi'es 'n' said she'd fergot
some of her duds, 'n' she'd kim back
to git 'em. I toP' her whar she k'd find
'em, but she jist settled down to hum
ag'in 'n' were bossin' the clearin' same
ez afore, in less'n half an hour. She
run things fer a spell, 'n' thien sloped
with Sama Fletcher, the mule boss.
'Twa'nt long 'fore she diskivered th't
- she'd fergot to take sumpin' else o'
her'n, 'n't she kim back to git it, 'n'
first thing I know.'d I were workin'
fer her agin. Las' fall she cut sticks 'n'
dug out with Joe Fassett.
"'Gosh!' I says. 'I hope Samianthy's
mem'ry hain't ben bad this time!' I
says. 'If she's fergot anytbin' this trip
I mow't ez well move out!'
"But sure ez sap she'd ben fergitful
again, 'ni' twan't three weeks 'fore she
kim prancin' back hum arter sumpin'
she'd left ahind her, 'ni' me'n' her went
to workin' in harness ag'in. Now along
comes Simu Bilger, 'n' $amanthy puts
on her bes' bib 'n' tucker 'n' slopes with
him, 'n' I'm too durn late to ketch
'em!"
"Let 'em go!" I said. "What do you
want to waste your time chasing up
such cattle for?"
'-Let 'em go!" exclaimed the anxious
husband. "Course I'll let 'em go! But
here's a lot o' things in this here bundle
th't Samanthy's fergot! WVat I wanted
were to overhaul her 'n' give 'em to her
so she wouldn't hef to come back arter
'em! Now she'll 'member 'em in a
week or two, 'n' consarn it! she'll come
horne a hummin'! It's just my durn
luck!" -
And the disappointed husband turned
his horse about and galloped disconso
lately awvay.
Always After Him.
"Why do you suppose woman was
made after man ?" asked 31izs Barrow.
"Because," returned Cynicus, "it is
part of her nature to be after man."

The Land of Pluck.
[St. Nicholas.]
Far over the sea is a famous little
country generally known as Holland;
but that name, even if it mean Hollow
land or How land, does not describe it
half so well as this-the Funny Land
of Pluck.
Verily, a queerer bit of earth was
never shone upon by the sun, nor
washed by the tide. It is the oddest,
funniest country that ever raised its
head from the waves (and, between
ourselves, it does not quite do that),
the most topsy-turvy landscape, the
most amphibious spot in the universe.
and the man in the moon can't deny
the chosen butt of the elements, and,
good-naturedly, the laughing stock of
mankind. Its people aTe the queerest
and drollest of all the nations, and yet
so plucky, so wise and resolute and
strong, that "beating the Dutch" has
become a by-word for expressing the
limits of mortal performance.
As for the country, for centuries it
was not exactly anywhere; at least it
objected to staying long just the same
in any one place. It may be said to
have lain around loose on the waters of
a certain portion of Europe, playing
peekaboo with its inhabitants-now
coming to the surface here and there to
attend to matters, then taking a dive
for a change of scene; and a most dis
astrous dive it often proved.
Rip Van Winkle himself changed
less between his great sleeping and
waking than Holland has altered many
a time between sunset and dawn. All
its permanence and resoluteness seerns
to have been soaked out of it, or rather
to have filtered from the land into the
people. Every field hesitates whether
to turn into a pond or not, and the
ponds are always trying to leave the
country by the shortest cut. One
would suppose that under this condi
tion of things the only untroubled crea
tures would be turtles and ducks; but
no, strangest and most mysterious of
all; every living thing in Holland ap
pears to be thoroughly placid and con
tent. The Dutch mind, so to speak, is
at once anti-dry and water-proof. Lit
tle children run about in fields where
once their grandfathers sailed over the
billows; and youths and maidens row
their pleasure boats where their ances
tors played "tag" among the haystacks.
When the tide sweeps unceremno
uiously over Mynheer's garden, he
lights his pipe, takes his fishing rod,
and sits down on his back porch to try
his lucs. If his pet pond breaks loose
and slips away, he whistles, puts up a
dam so that it cannot come back, and
decides what crop shall be raised in its
vacant place. None but the Dutch
could live so tranquilly in Holland;
though, for that matter, if it had not
been for the Dutch, we may be sure
there would have been, by this time,
no Holland at all.
And yet this very Holland, besides
holding its own place, has managed to
gain a~foothold in almost every quarter
of the globe. An account of its colo
nies is a history in itself. In the East
Indies alone it commands twenty-four
millions of persons.
They Have Hobbies.
The King of Italy takes great interest
in raising camels.
Bishop Coleman of Delaware spends
his vacations in pedestrian trips in the
Virginia mountains.
The Princess of Wales has become
an adept in amateur photography. She
carries about a detective camera.
Baron Nathan de Rothschild's hobby
is photography. He commences his
pleasure each day at 6 a. in., and trans
fixes many a family scene and view.
The Duchess of Connaught quite
equals Richelieu in the fondness for
cats. Her favorite pet is one of these
little animals imported from the land
of the Shah.
It is one of Mr. Blaine's peculiarities
that he has always preferred to speak
out of doors. He would.rather talk
among the pine trees than in any hal
in the world.
Russell Sage carries sixty-four cnrious
coins for luck. One of the most pre
cous isa penny that he found in his
boyhood. He would not part with
these coins for a (railway) prince's ran
som.

Rosalie: "I could never wear a second

Maude: "No; because if it was any

PUBLIU SAFETY
DEMANDS
That only honest and reliable medicines
should be placed upon the market. It can
not, therefore, be stated too emphatically,
nor repeated too often. that all who are in
need of a genuine Blood-purifier should
be sure and ask for
Ayer's
Sarsaparilla. Your life, or that of some one
near and dear to you, may depend on the
use of this well-approved remedy in prefer
ence to any other preparation of similar
name. It is compounded of Honduras sar
saparilla (the variety most rich in curative
properties). stillingia, mandrake, yellow
dock, and the iodides. The process of man
ufacture is original, skilful, scrupulously
clean, and such as to secure the very best
medicinal qualities of each ingredient. This
medicine is not boiled nor heated, and is,
therefore, not a decoction; but It is a com
pound extract, obtained by a method ex
clusively our own, of the best and most
powerful alteratives, tonics, and diuretics
known to pharmacy. For the last forty
years, Ayer's
Sarsaparilla
has been the standard blood-purifier of the
world-no other approaching It in popular
confidence or universal demand. Its form
ula is approved by the leading physicians
and druggists. Being pure and highly con
centrated, it is the most economical of any
possible blood medicine. Every purchaser
of Sarsaparilla should insist upon having
this preparation and see that each bottle
bears the well-known name of
. C. Ayer & Co.,
Lowell, Nass.
In every quarter of the globe Ayer's Sar.
saparilla is proved to be the best remedy for
all diseases of the blood. Lowell druggists
unite in testifying to the superior excellence
of thUis medicine and to its great popularity
in the city of its manufacture. 0
