How a Coachman Wins an Heiress.
_ "Will you tell me exactly what rela
tions exist between a coachman ami his
mistress?" I ventured to ask.
He looked thoughtful for a while,
and then said: "Very naturally, a
slight intimacy, if I can so express it,
must exist between them. For instance,
she will say to him, 'James, saddle my
bay mare at 9 in the morning, and come
along yourself on Kate, as I wish to go
tor a gallop into the country.' Promptly
at 9 James is at his mistress'cottage,
with his orders obeyed to the letter.
Very frequently James is obliged to
help my lady to the saddle. He catches
her tenderly about the waist, and is
obliged to place her dainty foot in tho
stirrup, she in the meantime smil.ng.
not, perhaps, because James touched
her tiny foot, but because her young
heart is leaping with jov at the pvopeet
of a dasli over the adjoining fields.
"While riding, if she sees anything to
admire she will ask Janies his opinion
of it. James is bound to agree with
her, and, of course, she is plea e h
And so it goes oa till James has been
in her service for a year or two, bv
which time the intimacy between them
is much great:-! in many i, snorts tiin:i
that existing between myiadyand- -me
of her beaus."
"And is it in this way that love le
two; n eoachnn n and heiresses, which
afterward resulted in elopements, be
gan I asked.
"Precisely," he replied: a. d then, bv
wav of explanation, he d: "1 > • -,>:i
think it anything so remarkable? Are
we not of tile same blm ,1 an 1 nature a<
our mistnases? Take one of t:«. so
coachmen," he continr.. d; ''that one.
for instance," pointing to a hands nr*;
fellow of splendid p!r. sipm, about to
drive his team out 1 1 the stable. "Is be
not respectable, good looking, well
dres-ed, and educated? Yes, I mean
educated, lor lie can speak several lan
guages. Would it be anything so veri
strange if his lady were to fall in he e
with him, think you ?"—Long ll>'oi<<;U

To Start a Balky Horse tn Double Har
ness.
The habit of balking in double har
ness can generally lie easily overcome
by means of a cord one-fourth of an
inch in diameter and sixteen feet in
length, an iron ring about one and one
half inches in diameter and a piece of
strong twine some two feet in length.
Fasten the ring securely by means of
tlie twine to tho back-strap, where it is
crossed l>y the breeching-strap, then
double tlie cord, placing the loop
formed by the center under the balky
horse's tail like a crupper. Cross the cold
and pass both ends through the ring
attached to the back-strap. Carry them
forward and pass them through that
terret-riug on the saddle of the harness
which is next to the balkv candidate's
mate, then carry them through the
hame-ring of the kind horse aud fasten
them, leaving a little slack, but not suf
ficient to allow the balky horse to set
tle into the breeching of the harness.
After completing tliisanangement step
hack, take the reins and start slowly.
Of course the balky one will attempt to
hang back, but the sensation produced
by the cord will divert his attention in
a very short time, and before he real
izes what he is doing he will put his
shoulder to the collar and help draw
the load. This is much better than
whipping, and a few lessons ''•-ill gener
ally effect a permanent cure
The Lapse of Morals.
In any given time just about such a
number . f car-axles will break down,
just so many buildings will be burned,
just so many good men will go wrong.
With the greatest care in selecting men,
the keenest insight into character, tbe
oest cheeks against fraud and loss, there
will still occur defalcations, embezzle
ments and betrayals of trust. Men's
characters change, and a man whose
record and looks give no evidence of
weakness now, may, in a few years,
through the warping iti* ! nonce of an
inner or outer torce, grow itgo a very
different p rson .—C ' un*

At 11 o'clock the other evening a man
and his wife, who were quarreling in
loud tones on Randolph street, wero
accosted by an oilieev w;th the injunc

A .Soft Answer.
A small, ragged urchin was observtA
by a philanthropic gentleman on How*
ard street, grinding his knuckles into
his eyes and howling dolefully.
"What is the matter, my boy?"
"Feller pasted me in the snoot."
"What did you.do to him?"
"Nothing, sir. I am a good littlft
boy. and g*es to Sunday school, and
the teacher sez, 'remember, boys, a soft
answer turnetli away wrath,' and whs©
I steps on the feller's corns, and he gets
wrathv, I jest sez the softest thing X
could think of, and calls him a dude,
and he up and slugged me!"
"Bless my soul!" exclaimed the oUl
gentleman, aghast, when, suddenly
abandoning his whimper, the urchii|
cut a caper on the pavement, put hiil
fingers to his nose, gave utterance Ut
an ecstatic "sold again!" and darted
swiftly down an alley .—Boston Globt,
August is said to be ^ne of the un*
lucky months to get married in. A
close observer has discovered that tha
year is evenly divided in this respect,
there being just twelve lucky and twelva
unlucky months. Some people ascribe
the inisfor!lines of marriage to the in
Ihn-uce of the moon; but they are prob*
ably less attributable to Luna than to
the lunatics.
