Echoes from the Phonograph. What Mrs. UarstinrlowHeard Alter Three Days' Absence lroin 11 one. It happened that Mrs. Bnrstinglow was going down to Keokuk for a few days, mid Mr. Bnrstinglow wasiucon- , soluble. At one time he protested that she should not go; he could not endure the lonesome bouse during her absence. Ami then again he declared that if she must go, he would ueglect his office and let his business go to the bow-wows, and ho would go with her. At length, however, sho per suaded him to be reasonable, and on her repeated assurance that she woul d not remain away longer than three days, he consented to let her go. He even bought her ticket, and ordered the carriage and paid for it two days ahead, lest his resolution should give way, and he should forget her going from him. Ami from that time till the morning of - her depnrturo, Mr. Bnrstinglow spoke in subdued tones and moved about with theairjofa man whose heart was jburied under mountains of grief. Before she left the house, Mrs. Bnrstinglow set the phonograph in the sitting room, bo hind the clock. Then she kissed he r disconsolate husband,and begged him to preserve his precious life for her sake while ehe was away, nud then she wns gone. Every dny during her throe dnys' visit in the Gntc City she received a letter from her mourning husband, bigging her to como bad; and telling lid how lonesome he was without her, and how like a grave theemptj houso seemed, nnd how the hours drngged over his aching heart with lendeu feet. Aud in threo days she enmo home, and filled the solemn house with sunlight and laughter ftgain? Tho evening after her return to Bur lington, she took down tho phono graph. "I wonder," sho said, "what we said last in its hearing? It must have been something while wo were dis cussing my visit. Or may be it has caught 6omo of your poor, longi ng monnings while I was away." And then she turned the crank. "Lord, no," croaked tho phono graph, in tones of hearty rea-nu ranee; "no danger of that; she's safe in Keokuk for three days; saw her safe ly oft' myself this morning. Light your cigar while 1 light another lamp and make the loom look cheer ful." "Why," exclaimed Mrs. Barstiag low, in a countenance of amazement, "what on earth is it saying ?" "Oh, some nonsense, some of your visitors have talked into it some lime or other," replied her hunshaud, nervously, "people talk all kinds of stuff into a phonograph, you know. They say anything for talk." Mrs, Bnrstinglow, looking only half convinced, gave the crank another turn. 'This is devilish good whisky, Barsty, ' ejaculated the machine, very earnestly. "Von don't get it in Burlingtou, do you?" Mrs. Barstiuglow gave a little shriek. "My d(ar," said her hunsband, looking now quite as worried as he had looked when he was begging her not to go to Keokuk, "put it away, somebody has had it out in the stable, and it might say something perfectly shocking, you know. Do put it away.'' But Mrs. Barstiuglow, upon whom the spirit of investigation had decend ed with great power, ground away, and the phonograph, in a voice raar velously like her husband's went re morselessly on. "Not much; they don't make this kind now, Its some old Mononga hela, copper-distilled that Mrs. Bars tinglow's mother gave her for medi cal purposes three years ago. Fill up again, there's plenty of it, and I can replace it with any kind of bevor ago when it's gone. Tim old ^irl w. n't Un ? w li.e .?in:- " . Mrs. Barstiuglow felt herself turn ing to stone, out the next tarn uftli s crank brought out an uproprio it. ''Ha, ha, ha] Here's to the o. g 1" That funned her cheeks into , a flame. "ior mercy's lake, Ma lach i Bars tiuglow," she shrieked, "whatdoes this mean ?*' Mr, Bnrstinglow now 1 oked as though he ready did wish she had never gone to Keokuk. "It's just as I tell you," he said, with *au effort to look unconcerned, that was like a humorous book, a ! colossal success, so far as its complete failure was concerned. "Somebody has beeu talking all sorts of nonsense into it just for talk's sake. How else could it get hold of snob dreadful stu <f in ourdcar little home, lovey?" Mrs. Barstiuglow didn't know, hu t she turned away and the phono raph nske 1 carelessly : "Throw around for the deds." She thought she would faint, but she didn't, and the pitihss machine proceeded to remark, with a variety of voices: "Its my age." "You'll have to straddle that blind if you come in.'' "Give'ine twojeards." "Chip one." "I'll see your little one a id raise you a couple." "Bush tho bottle this way, Ben." "Ain't you going to stay in. Harr ?" "Can't stay in on a pair of sixes." "Call you." "Two small pair, hings to head." "Tens and donees. Take the pot." "Bnrtsy, get us something to cat. Old girl left the cupboard k ys, didn't she?" "Lord, yes; told her I was going to keep bach at home to save expenses nud keep out of bad company." "Hn.hn, hn!! Ho! ho!! ho!!!" "Oh," yelled Mr. Barstiuglow, un able to contain himself any longer, while his wife, more dend than alive, leaned over tho phonograph and ground away at the crank in a dnzed kind of a way. Oh, keep it up! That's right! Keep her agoing! Grind it all outl Dog gone the diabolical piece of black nrt and the vile assas sin that invented it! Keep it up 1 That's right! Believe a senseless, diabolical piece of monstrous mech anism rather than your husband. Keep her agoing. Keep it tip!" Aud Mm. Barstinglow did keep it up. She kept it up, ami ii.sto.ied to that phonograph swear am. b'houtaud howl; sho heard it shriek, "Oh, my eye; my dye I4' she heard it toll some one to let some one cl*e "have it again in the same place;" she heard tt warn somebody to "hold his head over the stove-hearth, and not let his uose bleed on the carpet," and at last, as it assured her very thickly and with some dilKoulty that it was "a ban' ofjorry gooffuf-fuf fellows" and that "won'-lne-won' g' ometill morn ing," she ground it into silence, and sank back, speechless and breathless, while Mr. Barstinglow look the phonograph out into the back yard and smashed it into so in my and siie'i small fragments that. it. couldn't re produce even a steamboat whistle. '?'Now, then, I guess you won't tel! on me any more, you old blabber." A Model Conductor. * ? " TT- . ? ?I left Mary villc and went South on a*rnilroad so full of initials that it soiiuded like a Masonic Lodge, and I wondered how they kept the train on the track. But .there was a conduc tor on the traiu who deserves a monument. He didn't stand around and let his passengers hunt seats for themselves. When be came iuto the car and saw one man with no seat and another man with four he gently but firmly bounced the expansive man and made him withdraw within the metes and bouuds described by his ticket. He wasn't ugly or cross about it, but he had a way of explaining to a man with one ticket aud tbres valises, an egg ease, a box of butter, a bird cage, two hat boxes aud a -,ket ofapplos, that the exi re3s car :.- j^tuwo1 wiTfl forward; that, was per fectly irresistible, A small, timid passenger un accustomed to traveling is very averse to ordering a big, burly, broad-shouldered- traveler, with a belligerent, repel laut express ion on bis sleeps face, to "wake up and give him a seat," and the con ductor who takes this job off his timid bunds is a Godsend to the traveling community.

The Cap tain was on the grand rounds for tickets! and uftcr gobbling up a num ber of dead heads, he came to a very large and talkative lady, who was very polite, and while almost gasping for breath, she told the gallant Cap tain that she had not bad time to buy a ticket, but she bad the money. She was crowded iuto a seat with another portly lady, and could not move about very handily, ami asked the Captain to reach down and get the money out of her stocking! saying that there were a great many thieves about, and she wished to be very careful with her fuuds. Captain McAdin quietly remarked that the railroad didn't charge old ladies, and he toddled oil'after other tickets, the crowd near grinning at his expense. ? Speights* Daily Ni lospdjh r.

A Washington correspondent snys : One of those ingenious women whose business it is to examine mutilated nnd illegible currency in the Treasu ry 1ms recently come to griof. Thie woman had so ably performed this intricate work for several yoars as to have become almost indispensable not only to tho department, but scarcely less ho to numerous banks in different parts of the country, who but fur her patience must have lost considerable sums in worn curroncy. Her skill in restoring what looked like a hopeless mass was marvelous, and in consideration of her persever ance in this direction, some of the banks have from time to time attest ed their appreciation of the material benefit thus derived, by handsome donations of money, one or two, it is understood, paying her as high as SI ,000 per year. I take equal pride in the gal lau try of such men and the ability of such a women. Too often are women compelled to feel that they gain nothing by tnaked fidelity. These gills from the banks were, of course, in addition to the tegular salary paid by the treasury, of 81,200. For a considerable time it was sadly noticed that this woman was mani festly falling into the insidous power of a terrible syren. Often and again, it could not be denied, she was not quite herself long before the hour for the close of work. Admonitions, kind and gentle, and warnings, oft repeated, were of no avail. She was hopelessly enthralled. At last she came to the office one morning ul ready too oblivious to faithfully per form her usual task,and, as patience had long since ceased to be a virtue, a carriage was called and she was sent, a victim of alcohjl, to her homo, there to find that ominous yellow envelope containing a notice of dis missal from service had preceded her coming. Sstrange to say, her prede cessor in the same position, who had served long and acceptably, but for this weakness, was discharged for tho same cause. A Correspondent Answered. "Mabel Clare" writes us the follow ing flattering inquiry : "Are you the author ot that tender little ballad, 'Parting, Kiss My Eyelids Dowu !" We? Wo write such stuft as that? "Kiss our eyelids down ?" Mabel, thou art beside thyself; much reading hath made thee mad. "Darling, kiss our eyelids down." Now isn't that a nice thing to accuse us of saying? Aro wo that devoid of intelligence ? Mabel, don't you trouble our eyelids when you hnva a fancy to perform any operations of that delicate an d tender nature. We have a large, comfortable, roomy, flexible gash just below our noso that has bought county rights for all business of that na ure that comes within the limits of our face, and any eyelid found intcring or infringing will bo prose cuted to tho extreme limitof the law. No, wo didn't write it.?Burlington Uaickcyc, Poker-players should be more guarded in their expressions. A player at Omaha lately "made use of a phrase such as this: 'I hope Christ will kill me if it isn't so !' Pie had dealt the hand himself, and as the betting was over, he passed the cards to the player on his left, who shuffled them and then asked him to cut them, giving him a light tap to attract his attention. The blasphemous player did not stir. Ho was dead." "I-rcarn to smile," urges a cotem porary. That is pretty advice for an editor to give whoso task it is to mould public opinion.

A physician soon after loading his bride to the alter, wrote a letter to a college friend in Northern Geor gia, informing him of what bad hap pened, and advising him, alter the manner of a bridegroom, to go aud do likewise. The rising young lawyer replied from Newman, Ga., that ho would be very happy to marry if he could only meet h;s ideal; and then followed a peu picture ot the woman for whom his soul languished, all the mental and physical charms which found a place in his appreciation be ing duly mentioned in the descrip tion. While passing along Mam street one day months afterwar 1, the physician happened to sec a young lady of exquisite beamy and rare intelligence, and like *a flash ha re cognized her as the embodiment of the lawyer's dream. Ho mad-; in quiries] at once and learned that sha lived in Kentucky, and was visiting some friends in Ev ? nsville; and sub sequently he procured, without h it* knowledge, one. of her photographs and sent it to the promising young lawyer.
