A Very Charming Toilet recently worn
In New Y'ork consisted of a dem I-trained skirt
of pale blue crape, trimmed with silver lace
and silver colored ribbous. The bodice was cut
with low neek and short sleeves, aud graceful

use. and for otit-ot-door wear at the seaside
and in the mountains. The latter are tailormade,
and but little trimmed, tucks and flat

these are twilled serge. blv>n cloth, canvas
gooes, fianelettes. anu cheviots. For indoor

AX AMERICAN HEIRESS.
Lady Francis Trimson was charming. Sh<
was also clever, wonderfully well preserved
had a natural complexion, a moderate Jointure
a good milliner, was a widow, and had only on<
child?a son.
She had experienced little care or sorrow, foi
her husband wa- an old man when she marrier
him. and he wax gathered to his fathers heron
he became very disagreeable. Ho was th<
younger son of a Luke, and moderately well
off.
Lady Francis' life. or. at least, her widowed
lif?, had been strewn with roses; and, although
she could have settled down comfortably again
she preferred to retain, as she said, her free
dom.
" It is so nice to mnrrv an old man; you ar; t
widow quite young, you knour," she murmurec
to her dear friend Clare Melton.
"1 suppose it is. dear." sighed Clare, whrnx
husband was a young scamp.
Fr w of us ar?* perfectly content with our lot
and l.a iy I-ran els had a grievance that marret
sadly her happy butterfly existence. Do wha
sh?* could, her son Jack would not marry.
"Dear Jack is so poorand so extravagant,
wonder what will be his end?" she sighed
"He will marry a rich girl, of course," said
Clare.
"It is his duty to do so, as I tell him: but ht
only laughs at me." sighed Lady Francis.
"\V here is he now?"
"Shooting Indians or buffalos, or some othei
wild animals in America.''
"When do you expect him back?"
"I tun sure I don t know?in a month or two
perhaps.
j?c!s TriT"son bad been out west, huntins
buffaloes. shooting prairie chickens, racim
Mexican mustangs and playing " poker" with
the miners. He had a pleasant time of it, foi
he liked America and the Americans, and h<
1?r,r7 have to return so soon to England
J?ut lite in America is expensive, and Jack
who had extravagant tastes and a knack o
getting through money, had spent in tw<
months the sum he calculated would hav<
lasted him four, and be was in the middle of th<
Atlantic, on board an Intnan liner, when Id'
i m othei told her frland that he was shoot inj
India:ks and buffaloes. The passengers or
board were chiefly Americans who were goin<
to hnrope on a pleasure trip. There were on*
or two pretty girls among them, and Jack, whi
was a dangerous lady's man, commenced a ho
flirtation with one of them before he was twi
days at sea.
Katie C. Brown was a nice girl, and had t
pan oi soft brown eyes that alwavs did greal
execution?wheu they opened lire?and thev
dia not open upon Jack. The Brown part'v
consisted of three, for besides Katie C. Brown
there was Mary L. Brown, a tine, honest Ameri
can girl, with no pretense to beautv. but Witt
a look of strength and character 'about hei
homely face, and Samuel Washington Brown
; who had made money in Frisco in the good old
days of gold mining and wild speculation. Ht
i ,n1v,e?t 'd lr,a partof a silver mine in Nevada
which turned out a gigantic success, and
Samuel was now worth his good live millions
j of dollars.
Jack Trim son was pretty deep In the Intrica
cies oi a hard flirtation with Katie C. Browr
I before he heard who Samuel was. It was hi;
i ' L*eneral Jones, who enlightened
"I guess, stranger, that girl has got a heap,'
i he said. r
; "A heap of what?'" asked Jack, carelesslv,
"A heap of dollars. 1 calculate Samuel W
I l>rou n i< worth a million of your money. I always
heard he had only two* children?daugh
j te?- spo*e that brown-eyed friend of yours
j will have her half million of pounds?"
Jack Trim son was astonished.
"By Jove! if mv mother heard of this fortune
she would so mad." he ejaculated to himself
l ancy halt a million of money! Ye gods' what
tun I should have spending it."
I In* Brown party landed at Queenstown and
j went on to Killarney, while Jack came over t<
i . ,Vn?l W;ls arranged wheu thev parted
that the Browns would write to tell him of theli
: at rival in London, and Jack had promised to

ally pleasant. *?-??
Lady Trimson was delighted to haveherdear

thought, so handsome and so bronzed.

Jack, who wanted money badly, was verv

man yourself, Lady Franols, he continued, "1
? like you. and I like your nobility, too?when
i they thaw."
I .ady Francis could not altogether understand
nor appreciate Samuel W. Brown. Indeed, she
was growing quite concerned about him. He
I bad a liabit of calling on her at all sorts oi
? strange hours, giving as an excuse that the
, girls were away with the boj*?, and he was
lonely.
1 "I really believe." said Lady Francis, with a
shudder, to her friend Clare?"I really believe
I that wretched man Is making love to me."
. "Good gracious, my dear, how terrible! It will
spoil It all if you have to refuse him,' exclaimed
' Clara Melton.
By this time Samuel Washington Brown and
the Miss Browns were celebrities. Every one
. knew and heard of the great American heiresses,
but Jack Trimson did not seem a bit
* nearer to marriage. Lady Francis was in despair.
"They will ruin me between them," she
i moaned, "why, I have actually overdrawn
mv account at the bank."
; '*It will be all right, mother, when I marry
Kute. Old Sam will 'stutnn up the dollars,' as
he expresses it," laughed Jack.
r "I wish you would propose at once. We
1 reallv cannot go on living in this extravagant
, manner. I am positively ruined!" moaned
1 Lady Francis.
Fancy half a million of money, mother! W hy,
' you can have as much as you like whin it's
mine."
Matters, however, gradually became desperr
ate. Every one was talking of Jack and the
heiress, and wondering why the engagement
was kept a secret; "for surely," they reasoued,
? "they must be engaged, or they would not ha
going on In this manner. And ny degrees they
> also began to associate Samuel W. Brown's
1 name with that of Lady Franols.
"Fancy the old tabby going In for that rich
? savage." said her dear friend, Lady Oldin, to
' her husband.
"lie is worth a million of money, said his
i Lordship dryly, "and Lady Francis Is not rich."
At last the crisis oame. Lady Francis re'
celved an lutlmation from her banker that h?
I could not cash any more of her checks. Nothing
could save her. therefore, but Jack iininedl,
ately engaging himself to the rich helresA.
' On arriving home her ladyship explained the
' startling news to him.
"I will propose to-morrow," he remarked,
; "but perhaps I had better write and get an ap'
pointment first with the old gentleman and
sound him.
' He accordingly dispatched the following epLs.
tie:
' "My Dear Sir: Can you give me an Interview
. to-morrow morning at 11 a.m. at the Lang.
ham? I wish to speak to you on a delicate
subject and hope to* see you aloue. Pray re'
member me very kiudly to your daughters, and
" believe me very truly, J. Trimson.
' ".5. IF. Brown, E?>.j''
"There, mother,'' he remarked, "the die is
f cast. To-morrow will decide my fate."
The next morning, while he was seated at
breakfast with Lady Francis, a letter was
| huuded to him by the servant. He read it
quietly, and then, alter a little hesitation,
passed It over to his mother. It ran as follows:
My Deak Sik: I shall be most happy to see
" you, as suggested, at 11 a.m. If, however, tho
delicate subject you refer to has reference tc
the absurd rumors connecting my name with
that of your mother^, I hardly think you need
, trouble to call, as I am happy to say my wife is
still alive. Your's is indeed a strange country.
Just because your good mother took a kindly
interest in me, her friends Immediately put it
down that she was about to become Mrs.
Brown. I am sure there has never been any"
thing In her conduct to justify such anassumption,
and I venture to offer her, through
you, my most sincere sympathy that her considerate
attention tome should have been so
misunderstood. Believe me, very truly yours,
; Samuel W. Brown.
P. S.?I see by your note that you send kind
remembrances to my daughter*. They are at
1 school In Boston. \ou mean. I presume, iny
? nieces, Mary and Katie. Poor girls! They will,
. I fear, And It difficult to settle down as governesses
after all the gayety you have kindly
1 shown them.

Rural XotPH.
? Beet seed has a faint tinge of pale green il
new, but is a dull brown If old, and its vitality
is very doubtful if old.
? Soot Is an excellent "starter" for corn, a? it
is rich in nitrogen. It Is a substance that is often
wasted, but which Is really valuable.
? Soft-wooded plants should always be placed
' nearest the light, while hard and smootli>
leaved ones will not suffer in quite shaded situations.
? A writer in the Rural Workman says a tea,
spoonful of coal oil poured Into the wound made
by peach-borers In the body or limbs ol trees is
! 1 sure death to the borer.
? The roots of clover and some other grasses
J often find their way to very considerable depths,
but drains laid from three to four feet deep are
seldom choked by the roots.
, ? Troes whose root* seek water should never
i be allowed near tile drains. The roots euterlu^
' the pipe* choke them. The willow has been
known to travel 100 feet to enter a well.
T ? In the draining of sloughs straighten the
' line of descent as much as possible without too
much digging. Becauso nature forms water
! courses crooked is no reason why man should
follow the example blindly, however good na|
ture's laws may be generally.
? Black pepper is the cabbage protector, says
' the Fur ruing World, and the way to apply it is to

the plants. Go early in the morning, while tho
dew is on the plants, and duetovercaoh a small
quantity and the vermin will leave.
' ? Use plenty of lime in the orchard and

insects and also serves as plant food, as well as
[ hastening chemical action in the soli, thereby
rendering the inert substance* available.
? Lampblack mixed with strong vinegar Is

summertime feed on night-flying moths and
beetles. Owls are valuable in destroying ma
ture insects, thus preventing the laying of the
eggs. Hawks eat mice, frogs, grasshoppers,

vermin, according to their species. The crow is
an omniverous feeder, but eats less corn than
any other food. The proportion of hawks that

- A Boar and a Cow Fight to the Death.
On Monday mornlnic last, when George V.
Bury, living in the town of Howard, New
York, went out to feed his cow, he found
her lying in a p<x>l of blood In the barnyard.
{ There was a great gash In her lower right side,
1 her legs were stripped of theflesh in some places,
and even her horn showed marks of violence.
. She was nearly dead, aud was shot to end her
misery. As there was scarcely a foot of ground
in the barnyard which whs not torn up, and as
I blood was scattered about on the fence and
barn. It was plain that a desperate conflict
had takeu place during the night between the
> cow and some fierce animal. Daniel Sutfin, a
' neighbor of Burv's, owned a very large and
ugly Berkshire boar, aud on the same morning
that Bury found his cow dying In the barnyard
i Suttin missed his boar from Its enclosure, it
hud broken down one side of the pen and es>
caped. A similar break was found in the feuce
around Itury's barnyard. It was then made
> plain that the tight in the barnyard had been
between the boar and the cow. A search was
> made for the boar. It was found an eighth of a
mile away lying In the soft mud on the border
. of a mire hole. The mud was red with Its
i blood, which camc- from ten large holes in Its
Kide wher*. the cow had thrust her horns. The
boar was badly torn In other places, and one of
I its tusks was broken off. Its wounds being necessarily
fatal, it was also shot. The duel
between the two animals was not seen by any
one, but all the indications are that it must
have been a most terrific combat.
Following the Doctor'* Direction.
' From the Medical World.
i About the middle of January, an old German
by tho nam? of Nunsen called at my office for
' treatment foran Ill-conditioned ulcer on the leg.
I prescribed carbolic acid, lij ox. in 1 qt. of water;
" bathe the ulcer twice daily. The druggist, W.
L. Leland, who filled the prescription, uttached
r to the bottle the customary poisou label, which
i read as follows:
I CARBOLIC ACID.
POISON.
Antidote.?Emetic made by mixing one tablespoonfti
1 of must ard t u warm water, or grease la warm water.
Afterward whisky or other stiuiulauts.

In about two weeks the patient, who lives
' with bis not over-wUe son-in-law, sent the bottle
back by the son-in-law to be refilled. When
It was presented the following conversation ensued
:
" I want a pint of flskey," said the son-in-law.
"We don't sell it," replied the druggist. "\Vhat
do you want it tor?"
"Veil I guess it don't make some difference.
Vat you dinks about dot ?"
1 " what do you want it lor?"
" Vi, Dr. Qulgloy's directions said to use it."
" No, you must be mistaken; for the directions
i don't mentiou It."
Pointing to the antidote on the label, "You
read dot.
. " Did you do as this reads ?"
" Yaw! ve glf him de grease and the mustard,
i but don't haide flskey."
" 1 should have thought it would have made
( him sick."
[ " Yaw. It make him sick enough; but we don't
, haf de tiskey to gif bin."
i " How often aid you give him the mustard
and the grease?"
" Every time we vash the leg, two times a
i day."

From the La&yette (Ind.) Courier, May 21
A comical Incident in the Illinois senat
torlal contest transpired at Watseka, 111., yesterday.
Major Peters, editor of the Republican
i of that place, and republican member of the
- legislature from Iroquois county, whep assured
or Logan's election telegraphed the boys trom
Springfield: "Logan is elected. Paint my old
homered." He meant, of course, for them to
hold a jollification in Watseka, but the boys
took him at his word, ana, showing the message
to Mrs. Peters, gained her consent, and forthwith
the entire male population turned out, and
t procuring the brightest rod palat Imaginable
painted the bouse, barn, and outbQupes scar?
leu-roof, chimney, and all, sot sparing even
the tences and tree trunks. When the major
heard of the affair this morning he was the
maddest man in the nation, notwithstanding
Logan's election.
