The Two Miirjiliyi.
A good story is told of comedian,
Joe Murphy.
It was 'luring the 1 blue ribbon
exciiemcpt, aud Joe was journeying
to a small town 'in the vicinity el
Piliahurg. As the train steamed
into the depo', it was boarded by a
half dozen men, who, after a hurried
conference with the conductor, ap
proached the comedian with beaming
faces.
'Mr. Murphy, I believe," id ibe
sjiokexman, hat in hand.
'At votir service, sir," replied
Je.
'Delighted to moet yon, sir. We
are the committee appointed to
take you in charge," and they fairly
dragged tha astonished Joe from the
car, placed him in a carriage, and
they were whirled swiftly away.
"God bless us," thout'hl the exio
neiit of Irish jieculiarilies. "This is
very kind. Never was in this town
belore. A man's reutatioii does
travel, and that's a fact."
In a shoil time thy had rcftehed
the hotel, and the coiriniitee hat
ing placed Joe in the best jiarlori
suite, prepared to dejiart.
"We will call for you afier supper,
Mr. Murphy," said the aiokexraan.
One moment, gentlemen," said
St. Joaeph, as he pulled the bell
cord rigorously. "Waiter, drinks for
the party."
'Drinks I" shrieked the conelave
in a ehorus. "Mr. Murphy, are yuu
mad ?"
"Mad, echoed Joe; net a bit of il.
Name yo ir beverage, genll-inen "
"Oh, this i terri'iU bnckliding,"
Mid one. "Francis Murphy ordering
drinks."
'Francis Murphy" repeated the
perplexed Jo. "I am Joe Murphy,
the comedian."
' They saw it a'l, and rushed wildly
fiom the room in srarch of the tem
peraace apostle, who was even then
toiling painfi Hy from the dejiot on
toot, "totiii''" a hue carn-t bag.

jgitimttebusine said," his wife.
Some Mcd'i Wievt.
"I tell you what it is," said one of
a small colene of wealthy men who
had met in the office of o'ne of their
number, "they may say what they
please about the use lessiiess ot mod
em women, tut my wife has don,e
her share in securing our success in
life. Kverybody knows that her
family was aristocrat'o, and exclusive,
and all that, and when I married her
she had never done a dav's work in
her life; but when W. & C." failed, and
I had to commence at the foot of the
hill again, she discharged the servants
and chose out a neat little cottage,
and did her own housekeeping uutil
I was better off again.".
"And my wiie," said a second,
"was an only daughter, caressed and
petted to death; and everybody said.
'well, if he will marry a doll like that.
he ll make the greatest nusla . of hia
life;" but when I ofimo home the fust
vear of our marriage aick wit h the
fever, she t nrsed me back to health.
and I never knew her to murmur ho
cause I thought we couldn't afford
any better style or more luxuries."
"Well genllemon, ' chimed in a
third, "I married a smart, healthy,

Quy bore a atlicking resemblance
to Gen. Lewis Cass, and while he was
projnietor of the National Hotel, in
Washington, the Michigan Senator
was among his favored guests. Guy
dressed like Cass, and although not
portly, his lace, including the wart,
was strangely similar. One day a

lmcriraa Women Dt;tncra(inj.
Cincinnati Saturday Night 1 . . .
I don't believe in the women ol our
day writes a - oon'ribntor to the
American Art Journal. I went to
ball the other night, the fust one in
five years, - I wanted tosee whether
the women inado any progress. I
found they have.
Yes, and il'a in the wrong way.
They formerly painted their cheeks ,
now they paint their face, neck,
shoulders and arms. It was hard to
tell niter one of these wrestling
matches I bclievo they call it walla
ing whether the women's faces or
the gentlemen's coat sleeves had the
most poirderoii them.. I would in;
gest to the "boys" tint they' put on
white silk anils when they dance with
these powder boxes.
I wss introduced to one of them.
I'll wager she would't weigh more
than 95 pouuds. In a conversation
of twn minutes she informed me that
she had been twice to Ktiropo, threa
times in love, once blown ii in a
steamer, twice injured in a railroad
accident, and once, alio added, the
heroine in a.ical novel, whi h wis
too lovely for any thing. At supper
I watched here clesfly, she ate twelve
fried oysters, a' plate of chicken salad,
somo bono turkey, three plates of ioe-
it-ream, besides drinking champagne, '
black coffee and ice-water. At 3 a.
sr. I left the ball room; she was still,
lancing. Her dress (or rather what
was left of il) was held together
by fifty jins, which she had skillfully
inserted hero and there.
At halt past 2 a. m, she passod olete
by mo snd cripd out: "Colonel, it is
delightful!" Next day I. met her
father; ho said some' hing about "Sis
not being very well this morning."

"Well madam, I am following him

' But you look like a tramp, too,"
