"The scrimschon!'' exclaimed round faced, dark-eyed, black haired Will iam TeYis, as he rolled up a wood cock in his fathers old game shop, m the basement of 403 "Walnut street, yesterdav. "The scrimschon is the artbeautifuL What is it? Sit down and I will tell you. Not There -Great Jupiter! you almost squatted in this pan of plovers. Sit down in that arm-chair. It's one of dad's old chairs, and it's as old as well, all these things 'round here, as old as cuss words. And " "But the scrimschon?" "Ah! The scrimschon is the art of engraving on ivory or bone. I en grave on egg shells also, but that is a distinct branch of the engraver's art I don't know where tho name scrimschon came from, and, as to the meaning, why you can only define it by itself. It'is an art that is known to iew except old seamen. They take to it naturally if they have patience, a steady hand and a gift of drawing. All that you need is a jack knife and a whale's tooth, a billard ball, a bit of walrus tusk, or a piece of ivory or bono of any sort, and a little India ink and Chinese Vermil lion. You first lay off your design in lead pencil. Then you take your knife and carefully etch it and rub in your coloring matter. The design will last until the bone crumbles away."

A few months afterward the wnmnn was iririrriArl nrrnin. film came back with the tusk and had No. 1 scratched out and No. 2 scrim schoned in.

She came back one day and angrily told me to scratch off No. 2 miVhtv nnip.k. 'What's tli matter?" says L 'Divorced,' says she, Hhft nrHnns rnjrfii w T rlirln't cno her nirniri for Sftvoml rnnntlis. TTipti one dark day, in the .midst of a dis mal drizzle, she came tripping down iiiese biujis uuu mio mis ceuar wiin a little bit of a fellow as fragile as a soft-shell crab. 'My husband, sir,' says she, proudly. 'Glad to meet you, sir,' says he, in a voice like tho sound of a tight fiddle-string. 'Can you scrimschon from nature? says she. 'Yea, 'urn,' says L 'Then I would like to have you scrimschon my dear husband,' says she. 'I want to have his face where I know it will last for ever and forever.' 'Did I scrimshon him?' Oh, yes. But, poor man, ho omy lasted two montiis. INCONSTANT NO. -L "It was less than six weeks after I had heard of his death that my cus tomer and the walrus tusk were back acrain. She was dressed un semmn. tiously. She saw that I was surprised not to find her in mourning. 'I'm I'm married again,' she said with a giggle. 'And if you would be kind enougn to scratcii out this this pic ture and Dut in the niclnre of mv my present huBband, whose photo graph I have here I will be obliged io you. aucn a cnange and scratch in e of husbands had worn n hnllnw in the walrus tusk and I was longer iuuu uauui in. geuing along Willi number 4. Just as I was putting in his left ear my attention was called away by a scraping of feet and a rustling of silk. I" looked up and there was mv customer flnnTifin down the steps. I was not astonished; noming mac sue couia do would sur prise me. 'Well?' says L She paused a moment to take her baeath and gather her words. Then she said: 'How far have you got with that scrimschon?' 'Just putting in tho ears,' says L 'Well, make the ears big, enormous; make them donkey's ears,' she said, 'and on the forehead scratch the words beast and fraud.' 'Great heavens, ma'am,' says L What's the matter?' He has gone back on me,' she screamed. 'Your husband?' says I. 'He was not my husband,' she answered? 'I was too previous. He was only engaged to me, and now he has broken the en gagement, and they do say he is go ing to marry another. But Til sue him for breach of promise, sir. He'll find that he can't lacerate my heart with impunity. " SCBIMSCHONED HEERIiOOMS. "Did you finish the scrimsohon according to order ?n "No, it is unfinished yet. I'm ex peering to see that woman come in here any day fast married to No. 4. She set out to get him and she'll suc ceed.' "Where do vou find tho rAsf cr.m schon workers?"

"How long a time do you require to do a piece of work?" "I can scrimsclaqu a Goddess of Liberty or shield and eagle or n ship under full sail or any other ordinary design in one afternoon. It takes me longer to scrimschon likenesses oLpeC ple. The "work is necessarily slow. If I make a slip nnd riick tlitf'ivory I must file down the whole piece. " A job is sometimes worth from ten to twenty dollars. I know people who have had scrimschon pictures in their families for years and years and wouldn't part with them for any money." "Can you scrimschon human teeth or those of the lower animals." "No. The enamel resists the knife blade. A woman once brought me a tooth from the month of her dead pug dog and asked me to scrimschon a tiuy angel's head on it. I tried very hard" bnt I couldn't jsucceed. The woman was so disappointed that she wept when she put the tooth in a box filled with.Eerf umed cotton and car ried it avray?'J?hiladelp7ria Times. ! j- Butler's 'tJahince of Power" Notion. Gen. Butler does not improve in either rhetoric or logic as he travels west. He appears to be taking on more and more a charaoter bearing some resemblance to tiiat of- Jack Cade. Before he culminates he mav be fouud saying that in the event o his success tho tnree-hooped pot will bo miraculously bound with ten hoops, that the conduits will jun with wine, and that he will send his pal frey to grass in Wall street. He in formed his hearers at Lincoln, Nebraska, Tuesday that what ho wanted to secure was the "balance of power." To this end he advised Lis followers tounite witb the Demo crats. But the general did not state how tho "balance of power" could te obtained in the Electoral Colleges. There are thirty-eight of these bodies. They will meet at the capitals of the states in which they are chosen on a specified day in December next. Each member will cast the vote to which he was pledged before his election. There can be no combination or political dickering of any kind. If Butler has any electors they will cast their bal lots for him. But they cannot be traded off without a dangurons in novation in American politics. If an elector chosen for Butler should after wards, in obedience to instructions from that candidate, vote for Blaine or Cleveland, or anybody else, the electoral college system would be completely wrecked. There appears, therefore, to be some confusion iir the general's mind as to tho status of an elector. He evidently thinks that an official of that kind, elected to vote for him, be longs to him, and can be transferred where ha j)leaffCsy This is often, but not always, the rule in political con ventions. Tho elector, however, chosen to Tote for a particular candi date, must cast ihat vote unless he is absolved by his constituents. But there is no method by which his constituents can be consulted. General Butler is a very shrewd politician,and generally knows what he is about. But, for all that, he seems to be unneccessarily confounding the issues. If ho is any thing, he is the Democratic protec tionist candidate for tho presidency. If he should defeat Cleveland lie would naturally becomo the leader of the party in 1SSS. But he can't do any thing now with tho "balance of power," nor can he secure it If the election be thrown into tho house all his labor will have gone for nothing. In that case his candidacy will have secured the triumph of Cleveland. The Democrats have a majority in a majority of the delegations in the house but not the Butlerites. There is apparently no more chance for a dicker thero than in the electo ral college. There might bs some weakness on the Pennsylvania line. But Pennsylvania has no more weight in a contest of that kind than Dele ware; besides, tho Democrats could lose a state and vet win. Marriage in Siberia. Among the exiles in Eastern Si beria the following custom prevails: If a man wishes to get married he applies to the governor, who forth with selects ono of the female prison ers, with whom tho candidate for holy matrimony is expected to "keep company" for two or three days. If at tho conclusion of this term the male party declares to the governor that the lady selected is not to his mind, he receives twenty-five blows with a stick, and another bride is chosen for him and so on. The same course is adopted with the fe male prisoners who are in search of husbands. These matches are termed "official marriages," or the "gover nor's marriages," and are not followed by any religious ceremony. A Skirmish Amony the Doctors. When typhoid fever broke out at Port Jervis, some doctors quarreled about how to cure it. Each said his way was the best, and several said all the others were entirely wrong and knew nothing about how to cure it A little knowledge of medicine is a dangerous thing, but a very valuable item of medical knowledge is, that Brown's Iron Bitters builds up wast ed systems, and by enriching enfee bled blood gives health and strength. Dr. J. W. Newhill of Carter's Greek, Va., says, "Brown's Iron Bitters m one of the best tonics I ever pre scribed." Early marriages are becoming com mon among boys and girls in the east end of London. At 11 or 15 every laddie ha3 his lassie. A boy of 16 recently married a girl of the same age. In one printing office there aro four married boys. The eldest is only19 and receives 13 shillings S3.25 a week; the next is 18, has three years of his apprenticeship still to serve, and has two children; the youngest is 16, and has to keep a wife and one child on 11 shillings S2.75 a week. Another boy is known whose ago is between 16 and 17 and he has two children. Still another boy of 16 has one child. THE GREAJ GERMAK REMEDY HL JM Wt FOR PAIN.
