Oh, you're the girl lives on the corner? Come In,
if you want to come quick!
There's no one but me in the house and the cook
but she's only a stick.
Don't try the front way, but come over the fence
through the window, that's how.
Don't mind the big dog he won't bite you just see
him obey me there, now.
What's your name? Mary Ellen? How funny!
Mine's Edith It's nicer, you see.
But yours does for you, for you're plainer, though
maybe you're gooder than me.
For Jack says sometimes I'm a devil, but Jack, of
all folks, needn't talk,
For he once called our seamstress an angel no
wonder ma said she must walk!
Come In. It's quite dark In the parlor, and sister
will keep the blinds down,
Just because her complexion is awful like yours
through It Isn't so brown;
But Jack says that isn't the reason: She likes to
sit here with Jim Moore.
Do you think that he meant that she kissed him?
Would you if your lips wasn't sore?
If you like you can try our piano. 'Taint ours. A

To rent by the month, but mama says he has not
been paid in a year.
Sister plays. Oh, such fine variations! Why, I
once heard a gentleman say,
She didn't mind that for the notes; dear! it only
was Justin her way!
Ain't I funny? And yet It's the queerest of all,
that whatever I say
One-half the folks die a laughing and the rest all
look t'other way;
And some say, "That child!" Do they ever say that
to such people as you?
Though maybe you're naturally silly, and that
makes your eyes so askew!
Now hush! Don't you dare to be crying! Just as
sure as you live, if you do
I'll call my big dog to bite you, and I'll make my
papa kill you, too!
Andthenwhere'llyoube? So play pretty. That's
my doll and a nice piece of cake.
You don't want it? You think it Is poison? Then
I'll eat It just for your sake!

ONE ROMEti AND SIX JULIETS.
Bignold's Troubles in Keeping the family To
gether. New York Correspondence Boston Herald.
George Rignold found himself in a
condition not uncommon-to actors out
of money. He was popular, however,
the long'run of "Henry Vw in Booth's
Theatre having f aiuiliarized the peo
ple with him as a handsome, dashing,
conquering monarch. . He decided to
fill his pockets by means of the benefit
performance, with himself as Romeo
and six actresses as Juliet. He had
given his services on many such occa
sions, and therefore, was able to depend
on a reciprocity that would provide him
with attractions free of cost.
Adelaide NeUson, Fannie Daven
port and Ada Dyas had been,
helped by him in that way,
and could not well say no to his invita
tion. Maud Granger was then a begin
ner in fame, and readiv volunteered.
So did Minnie CummiSgs. A novice
made a sixth Juliet, paying well, it was
said, for the privilege. An entire act or
scene was allotted to each the balcony
to Miss Neilson, the masked ball to
Miss Davenport, the nurse interview to
Miss Dyas, the farewell to Miss Gran
ger, the potion to Miss Cummings, and
the tomb to the novice. All this was
easily planned. The first trouble was
when the Juliets assembled in the
greenroom. There were only five.
Miss Neilson sent a note to say that she
was too sick to act. The real reason
was said to be that she, a star of more
or less magnitude, was unwilling to put
herself in a constellation with mere
stock actresses. The second trouble
came of Miss Davenport refusing to be
introduced to Miss Granger, on the
ground of the latter's antecedents. Per
haps the fact that Miss Granger was by
far the most beautiful of the Juliets
probably had something to do with Fan
ny's disdain. ' The third trouble was the
antipathy between Miss Davenport and
Miss Dyas, growing out of their experi
ence as members of the Fifth Avenue
Theatre company. In those days Miss
Dyas was a leading actress, and Miss Da
venport was the soubrette. Miss Daven
port aspired to "leading business" and
crowded Miss Dyas. MissJ Dyas was
credited with remarks about Miss Daven
port and Manager Daly. Miss Daven
port was credited with remarks about
Miss Dyas and ex-Mayor Oakey Hall.
Therefore, when they met in the green
room of Booth's Theatre, neither show
ed any sign of seeing the other. The
fourth trouble was with Miss Cum
mings, who resented a slight and walk
ed deliberately out of the stage door.
The news that one of the Juliets had
escaped reached Rignold. He sent a
messenger after her, and she was over
taken two blocks away, mollified by ex
planations, and brought back. The
lif th trouble was caused by Miss Daven
port remarking thai; she didn't under
stand why a novice was brought into
the combination. The novice, already
scared, was so disturbed by the reflec
tion that she made a burlesque of her
part of the tragedy, and it needed only
that Paris should fall off the stairs into
the tomb which he did to close the
performance ridiculously. But the
theatre was crowded, and liignold
cleared about $2,000,
A Knotty Question Solved.
From the Iron Age.
A case involving certain nice
points of law in connection with the
collection of a draft was recently 'decid
ed in the United States Court in St.
Louis. JThe German bank of Quincy,
111., sued" the First National Bank of
Missouri to recover $10.00, the amount
of a draft. The latter received the draft
collection and credit." It was present
ed to the drawees, and a check on the
Franklin Bank of St. Louis was accept
ed in payment. The National Bank of
Missouri had the check certified, but did
not get it cashed. On the same day the
National Bank of Missouri suspended
payments, and on the following day the
officers of the bank collected the amoimt
of the Franklin Savings Bank, and the
proceeds were turned over to the re
ceiver as a part or the assets ot the
bank. Judge Dillon in rendering the de
cision held that the act of the Missouri
Bank in having the check certified did
not release the drawer of the draft nor
did it bind the Franklin Savings Bank.
No payment was made until the check
was actually paidm legal tenders, mis
not having been done until after the
Missouri Bank had ceased to do busi
ness, the money paid it by the Franklin
Savings Bank as agents for the German
13ank remained the property or tne lat
ter, and, therefore, the receiver of the
suspended bank had no right to hold it
to be distributed rateably among the
general creditors of the bank. The
question, it must oe admitted, was a
knotty one but the decision of the judge
seems to accord, if not entirely with
law, at least with sound sense and jus
tice.

my Favorite Prescription has worked cores, as .
If by magic, and with a certainty never before at
tained by my medicine: Leucorrhoea, Excessive
Flowing, Painful Monthly Periods, Suppressions
when from unnatural causes, Irregularities; Weak
Back, Prolapsus, or Failing of the Uterus, Antever
sion and Retroversion,' Bearing-down Sensations, -Internal
Heat, Nervous Depression, Debility, Des
pondency, Threatened Miscarriage,-Chronic Con
gestion, Inflammation and Ulceration of the Uterus,
Impotency, Barrenness,, or Sterility, and Female
Weakness. I do not extol this medicine as a "cure
all," but It admirably fulfills a singleness ov pur
pose, being a most perfect specific to all chronic
diseases of the sexual system of woman. - It will
not disappoint; nor will It do harm, to any state or
condition. - - . ,; . ' .
Those who desire farther Information on these
subjects can obtain it in Thb People's Common
Sense Medical Adviser, a book of over 900 pages,
sent, post-paid, on receipt of S 1.50. ' It treats mi
nutely ot those diseases peculiar to Females, and
gives much valuable advice In regard, to the man
agement of those affections. " ' :." : .
