A well known man about town, who had written to a lady friend at a distance of the treatment received at the hands of a woman who was attempting to injure his business, received the following reply from his friend: News! News! News! My gossiping friends, I have wonderful news to tell. A lady by me her compliments sends, And this Is the news from Hell: The Devil Is dead. He died resigned, Though somewhat oppressed by cares; But his wife, my friends. Is a woman of mind. And looks after her lord's affairs. I have Just come back from that wonder ful place. And klst hands with the Queen down there; But I cannot describe her majesty's face, It has filled me so with despair. The place Is not what you might suppose: It Is worse In some respects. But all that I heard there I must not disclose. For the lady that told me objects. The laws of the land are not Sallque, But the King never dies, of course; The new Queen Is young, and pretty and "chlc" There are women, I think, that are worse. But however that be, one thing I know, And this I am free to tell; The Devil, my friends, is a woman Just now; .'Tls a woman that reigns In Hell. SUNDAY AT THE BON TON.

HER FIRST APPEARANCE. Mary Amderson de Navarro Writes of Stage Debut and of Her Cloud ing Sorrow. M,ary Andenson de Navarro in tier stag career memoir, twhtoh. wlll be published In 'the Ladles' 'Home Journal (Uhe open ing chapters In tlha December issue), gives tlhe public a most Interesting and entertaining view ctf the trials and hard ships she successfully combated In fol lowing out her conviction that the stage presented to Jier the opportunity for a splendid career. She exultantly refers to ber debut in Louisville, Ky., on Sat urday evening, November 27, 1875, upon which occasion Ohe "tall, shy and awk ward" girl of sixteen Interpreted Shakes peare's love-lorn Juliet. The perform ance was arranged upon two days' no ticetime for but single reJhearaal and the aspiring Kentucky girl was Jubilant w-hen the theater and a stock company were offered tier, upon condition that she play without pay. Her happiness, how ever waa not unclouded, for of the event eihe writes with touching pallhos: "That Thursday (tlhe day her first appearance wiaa arranged) iwas one of Uhe happiest days of my life, filled as It was iwltDi the brightest hope and an'tdcipatlon. Only one black cloud hung over H; the thought of Nonle and imy grandparents who were all very dear to me. Had 1 known then that I would never see tlhe 'face of the former, that (he would die, my mother and I far amy ifrom him, and that al most until his deatih. he -would refuse to forgive or see me unlets I abandoned the stage life which, he thought so injurious nay, sinful I iwould even then have renounced 'Wihiait 'Was within my grasp. This estrangement saddened many yeara of my life, and has cast a shadow over all the otherwise brigM and 'happy mem ories of him -wttto me 3 the faultier, friend and playmate of our chtdlhood days." Mrs. de Navarro evidently did not suf fer from stage fright, thie crushing terror of debutantes, Icr She writes that she stood impatiently waiting for her "cue' to go on. At last it caime, "Then, In a flash, I was on it'ne stage, conscious only of a 'wall of yellow lie'Wt before -me, and a buret of prolonged applause." The performance was filled with rather de pressing incidents; one of the players forgot his Jines and had to be prompted by the youthful star; Romeo neglected to bring his dagger, and Jullot had to perform her diispatcih with a hairpin, while the laimp that hung In Julia's 'tomb fell and badly burned her hands and arms. "DetspR'e of these, Sue writes, "the nignt was a success, and 1 knew that my stage career bad begun In arncnt." ELECTRIC BITTERS. Electric Bitters is a medicine suited for any season, but perhaps mora generally needed In the spring, when tne languid exhausted feeling Is prevailing, when the liver is torpid and sluggish and the need of a tonic and alterative is felt. A prompt use of ttv.s medicine has often averted long and perhaps fatal bilious fevers. No medtc.ne will act more surely in counteracting and freeing the system bottle at Clias. Rogers' drug store.
