We an iunformed that a eertain mar
ried lady liv1hg in H#-it,4 Aitw days
siner, debaed hutrviiding suit eo re.

and joett iidei was about to leave her
home for thLdeiiling pl.asure, disev,'
er*d the meat anishing part of her head
d!ets,to-wit. the bangs, had been hbr
iaedly and iiadvirtettly left off. Af
:ter searching in vain for this indispon
stble part of her unfinaished toilet,lae
was compelled to forego the anticipated'
visit till a more conveuliet ansuon.
After supper when her hbiband'iremov
ed his slippers from his feet, the much
looked for and severely abased hangs
fell out of one of them, having for one
evening performed thudouble functions
of heos and bangs. It seems that they
had been laid away in a bracket where
the elipiers were kept sad drop ped
ddwa in one of them, and the husband
failed to notice the tine net work into
which his foot protruded as he slipped
the slipper on.
This is an actual occurrence and we
would soggest to wives to be careful
about throwaing their bangs around.
People who come to town and tank
up on cheap, X X-eysd, Knock-kneed,
ditch-flinging emanations from the still
worm, or, in plain English, mean whis
key, should bear in mind that the side
walks were not made to ride on, the
streets were not intended as a rostrum
to cnlsa and use ontd and boisterous
language on and last, but by no mans
least, that ladies must and will be pro
tected from their drunken insults.
There is a reeoptacle within the corpo
ration of the town for all such charac
ters. It is neither fitted up with downy
couches of ease n:or hot and cold driuks
at all hours, but the free lclah stand
unfuris its banners for a very short
j'bils, three times a day. "Parson"
Harris is the keper of this wayside
Inn, but the Mayer Is the functuary
who makes the aemtsaent on those
who intrude upon the "Parson'." pious
privacy; and any one who euaread will
behold, og being introduced to his hon"
or, the followitg sentaece in the twist
of his lips, withest asking a question
or hearing a wort "Ten ollars sliand

Have you been to G. 0. Gill's and ex
amined his enormous steak of Clothing,
and aseartained the remartabhly low
Cash prices for which he is selling
them? If not don't ile aunotber min

proaching, the clothing is going and
you'll be left if you don't trot in a har

offering.
This local is very seldom "peitene'
with presents, but on last Monday
evening he was the recipient of two
magnificent loquets of sweet and bean
tifua flowers. They leek a li'tle out of
place in his bachelor den, but neverthe.
less they are prized very highly and
the kind friend who set them has his
sincere thanks.
