The. charge agatist Julia and Percy was an ugly one. The oliicer stat el that he had seen Percy enter her room, had waited patiently with -his ear ' at the door til! he he;ird a kiss, and then, breaking it open, had found hini with his arm around her neck. Tiie officer was praised for his vigi- aucc in the detection ;of contraband kisses, 1 that seducingly darigcroin article and, will, doubtless, arrest the next young man hoi sees blowing at Pocahontas at the door or a ci;jar shot).

Miss Julia then proceeded o inform his Honor that a short time before she had been left motherless, was thrown up on her own resources. She had no hus ba"d aud saw the way to none. She did not like to sew; she did not want to spoil her hands with hard work; for a hand once eularged is not susceptible of reduction. A large hand was a bad habit which one could not easily get rid of. But her whs were good, and by them she proposed to live, and if possible transmute the vagrant humor3 of her brain into cakes and clothes. After thinking a temporarily expensive pro cess since it led to the pawning of some of her clothes she came to a determination. She reasoned that whatever men might be when associated with one another, they were frequently great fools when brought in contact with women. Yet she did not beleive t-hat this folly was ingrain, but that it was for lack of knowins better. Then she went a step further, and assumed that these men would like to know better, and were foolish only for lack of one to teach them otherwise. She had the wisdom they needed, and they the money she nteded why should there not be an exchange ? The work was a oble one, for he or she who uproots a folly is nobler than he or she who destroys a thousand Canada thistles To make known her intention, she felt that she must advertise, j So this young alchemist turned a couple of skirts and some other trifle into a dollar, procured a handkerchief's worth of paper, and thus advertised, stating that a young lady ot polished address, reduced circum stances, and former social advatage?, de sired to give lessons in etiquette and the way of conversing with ladies, to any young gentleman who did not feel at case in the society of the opposite sex. Tui tion to lovers extra. The advertisement waa a sucess. She saw youg men who were at a lack for feminine topics, ignorant of the nice con duct of the hands and the proper plaqe of the feet. She had made money, and, waxed fat with prosperity, had cut her old friends, 4he pawnbrokers, after re turning their Kfile visiting card3. There was redemption. One day Percy came along. lie stat ed he was courting a West Side maiden, and that unhappily ha did not get on fast as he desired. He was still miles from a proposal. He knew she expected it, and he knew -he wanted to do it. But he could not. He had walked to the house, repeating to himself : " I wil propose to-night; J will propose i to night;" but after getting there he would find that man may propose to propose but that God still disposes.
