Joe Keifs Office Boy on Babies. There is three kinds ot babies. Babies that -ain't horned yet, babies that is borned and babies that never o't to bin borned, and doll babies; but cats' babies 3s k'tttins and dog's babies is pups, but a cow's baby is a calf, and so forth. Babies is bawled and baid. Good babies is the kind you read about. They are mostly dead, or else they belong to ether fokes, and not to you. A baby is a small pece of breethiug ekio, whitch is like a newspaper read awl over ;goak). Some fokes uses them for clocks, because a baby's inaides is awl full of yells, and when he goes off it ia nite and most parunta knows it is time for them to get up. Some babies was invented by Mr. Edison and some by uther men. Babies is devided into 2 kinds boys and the kind that never o't to bin borned gurls. But twins and triplers is the uther kind, whitch comes in grupes. They come too hi for most iamblies. But i think its 2 bad about my ant mary, pa ses .God won't never let her have no twins nor triplers, nor anything 'cauae he's down on old mades. But a kitten can lick its oan muther. Babies ain't got no teeth ; but they want to a waller lhare oan fiats and everything, the littnl suckers! But there is too mulch babies ia the world, anyho. If docturs would only mind there oan bisnisand cure sick fokes more and not go round for so mutch new babies awl the time, the wnrld wonldent have haf so much trubbel. They could Th3 Dalles Daily Chrc cure awl the col lick ai d mezles on erth by not fiodin no more tables, and littnl boys like me would get eum attenebnn too. If uther babies growed in egs like a hen's, you " cou'd eat 'em i and they .wbodent get borned to squall -and waist milk on. But a dr.ck'a babies i--oiled goal an 9. Some babies ia very tuff, -tou can drop them on the floor and nock thare beds on the wall and slam them awl ovar the house and they won't kick none nor cry. They' don't have no hooping coif nor nothing. Thay never wake up and thare etumioicka don.t ake cause they are tui! of sawdust, and they are doll babies. Oar baby makes me tired, she crows 2 much, gesa ehe'9 stuck on herself. But a mouse ain't a rat's b tby any more than a bullet is a cannon ball's Jit tie boy. LamS ia baby eheepp, with wool whis kers on thare oulsides to make clothes out of for storekeeper's to stick yon with. But if babies could only stay little they would be hapy, for when they git growd up and havt to hump. for a livin they find out what a hard, coaled spere thia wnrld ip, yon bet. Jay babies is borned on farms and has one neree, whitch is its muther; . but city babies is brot upon a bottil and haat to be interdused to its muther 2 or 5 times a yere, cause city muthers has got to be swell. But it ain't swell to watch out for kids when you git 'em. Dopted babies is the kind that grows on doorsteps. An' once thay was a good man wbitcb never had no childrun, an' eo he went to Eea for 6 years and left his wife to home. So when he come there atin thare was two littul boys and two littul gurl babies waitin for him, whitch was a hapy supprize. So no more now. Geoegie.

T Revolt of Enfelish Women In India Against a Form of Social Bondage. ' The English women living in India put a sensible scheme into execution recently. - They revolted against the social bondage of "duty calls" and organized an anti-calling union. Sev eral hundred women joined and pledged themselves to abide by the rttles, which are very simple. Instead of paying calls in person cards are sent and calls are returned by post. A personal call is allowable only when a special compliment is in tended. At home days are held by the members of the union when conven ient, notices of these being printed in. the papers several days beforehand. The fact that men are excluded from these privileges has caused no end of amusement among the women and no less talk among the lords of creation, particularly the crusty bachelors of society, who declare that calling did keep some Women quiet; they go so far as to make wagers on whan mischief their women friends will be up to now that there is no necessity for them to pay duty calls. - . There is no union of this kind in this city, but the women members of the Barnard club long ago gave up calling for the mere name of the thing! They agreed that their club should bei a kind of a social clearing house, and the plan has worked admirably. Ah in formal reception is held in the beauti ful club rooms every- Saturday after noon, and a little chat with one's .friends there relieves everybody of all calling obligations. This even extends to party calls among most of the mem bers. One of the most prominent women in the club says that the plan not only saves the club members a great deal of valuable time, which can be put to more profitable use, but strengthens the moral " character as well.-since nothing weakens it eo much as obligatory duty calling. The mem bership of this club, which includes men, too, has run away up into the hun dreds and the waiting list is very long. N. Y. Sun. .- as Scott's and we sell it mucli cheaper," is a statement sometimes made by the druggist when Scott's Emulsion is called for. This shows that the druggists themselves regard of Cod-Liver Oil with Hypophos phites of Lime and Soda as the standard, and the purchaser who desires to procure the standard " because he knows it has been of untold benefit, should not for one instant think of taking the risk of using some untried prepa ration. The substitution of something said to be "just as goocr for a stand ard preparation twenty five years on the market, should not be permitted by the intelligent purchaser.
