OX PO OX & THE BEAUTY PATCH A RAILWAY COMEDY. BY RICHARD OMONROY. ® The Saint-Lazare station Is a gay sta. tion in the heart of the city, a stone's throw from the Opera and the boule vard, five minutes from the Champs Elysees, 20 minutes from the Boils de Boulogne. In the waiting room, the Hall of the Lost Footsteps, lined up before the booking offices or seeking quem devorent, there are always a lot of pretty girls with extravagantly yel- low halr crowned by marvelous hats. They walk down the Rue d'Amster- dam, their noses In the air, striking the echoing curbstones with thelr little high heels and generally carrying small leather bags, supposed to give them a countenance. What a counte- nance! Hence trips to Saint-Germain or Versailles, starting from the above mentioned gay station, are true pleas ure trips. Yesterday 1 was obliged to go to Ver sallles, and, profiting by my experience in garrison there for several years-- : 1p and down, In o e to choose my compartinent. The rallway carriages standing high above the ley- el of the platform, the women passen- gers have to practice regular gymonas- ties to get aboard, and there are, there- fore, all sorts of pleturesque sights to be seen, not to speak of services to he rendered. [For the latter purpose the best thing to do Is to_stand opposite the revolving platforms. They make the steps at least a foot higher--enough 'to make one quite dizzy climbing ln. 1 was on the lookout for a pretty fellow traveler. | might even ad that | had the embar of It ak most looks as If the Western company has the monwpoly of gool looking ticket holders. But. alas! Not one of them was alone. Naturally 1 avoided cavalry officers: they all go to the terminus of the line. The Infantry add to the chances of a tete-a-tete, for they gen- erally get off at Courbevole, St. Cloud or Ville d'Avray. As to the artillery-- that's a risk to run. There Is a battery Aor Register at solicited. at 8 but there are two regi- ments at Versailles as well. 1 was at this stage of perplexity when, in one of the last of the first class compartments, I caught sight of A pretty brunette--to be classified among the piquante Jrsettes velvety | with long lashes, a faint- and above the rated gentleman.

Ke goes on the theory that if he is robbed of one lot a sufficlent amount will remain to last him until be reaches home.

He does surprised. ii teat 1 LETS or are COLON Ts OTH appeared, as he expected to be robbed, Any number of men are found who keep only a little working capital in thelr trousers pockets, the bulk of their funds being concealed in broad. fat wallets in the inside pocket of thelr waistcoats. These bills are always of large denominations and folded once. When a man brings forth his reserve funds, It will be found that all the bills bave a smooth, bright appear- ance. They have been with him so long that they are as flat as a sheet from a letter press. Very few men in this country carry coins In purses. In England purses are common. The material Is generally pigskin, but undressed kid is also used extensively. The former have two compartments, one for small gold coins and the other for silver. It is some- times amusing to watch a man with a little undressed kid bag pay his fare on the street cars, especially If he Is wearing thick dogskin gloves. Only conductors with great patience can watch the proceeding with complacen- cy. A woman can pick out five pennies from beneath a roll of bills In con siderably less time than It takes the man with the kid purse to bring forth a nickel. One reason that the kid purse is not popular Is because It feels like the half of a small dumbbell In the pocket when fairly well filled. In london it Is the proper thing to carry a pigskin owing to the large circulation of sovereigns. It Is essential to keep the gold and silver separate In order to avold mistakes. There are coln cranks as well as pa- per money cranks. Some years ag: there lived a little, round faced mar over In the Back Bay who came loto the business district every week day morning at precisely 9 o'clock. In paying his fare he always passed up & bright, new nickel that looked as If It had come to him fresh from the mint. Where or how he got them was a mys- tery to the conductor, but he finally de- clded that his customer was connect ed with some banking lostitution and that the new money was used to es- eape the chances of contracting disease through the handling of money that had heen In common use. There are ny tumber of people who cannot let go a new coin without ex- periencing a pang. They will hold on to a new half dollar until the last ex- tremity. Then there are those who vigit the subtreasury every few days and get a pocketful of new 10 cent pleces. They experience a special de- light In passing them out, as they feel that those who recelve them will won- der "who that man is."--Boston Her ald. > Fixennable, Wickwire--From a superficial notice I ®hould ray you had a holy terror of water.

It Is said that the latest portrait of Queen Victoria brings out in a striking way her resemblance to the Studrts. The German emperor has a great love of new inventions, especially of those, however humble, which affect or facili tate the dying of business. Wilhelmina, the queen of Holland, is spending much of her time in skating on the ice covering the ornameutal water in the gardens of the palace known as the House In the Woods, where (ue prace sonference was held last year. Don Carlos, the king of Portugal, bas an importance just now out of all pro portion with the power of his state. The king's title is almost as big as his do- main is xmall. He is "king of Portugal and the Algarves, within and beyoud the seas in Africa, lord of Guinea and of the navigation and commerce of Ethiopia, Arabia, Persia and the Indies." PITH AND POINT. After a man passes GO all that he bas to look forward to is an ache in a new place, The great objection to hypocrisy is that it is not necessary. No man ever prac ticed it successfully. When a man starts to tell you a funny story, you cau always get rid of him by saying, "I've heard it." You must behave yourself if you hope to avoid worry. No guilty man can avo.d worry over his misdeels. Keep your nose too close to the grind- stone. and some of your relatives will bury it and the rest of youl at the same time, It is doubtful if any one ever had a real friend; therefore be your own friend and take care of your interests and your rep- utation,~ Atchison Globe, 1 Fig Pudding.
