Considering the Assortment, Styles, and our Low Prices, there is no other place where they can be fitted out as well with everything from HATS to SHOES. IF you reside out of New York City, we can serve you as well by mail. Please note our plan. A general Catalogue issued once or twice a year has proved so unsatisfactory to describe our goods (at least so unsatisfactory to us) that we have discontinued it. The time necessary for its preparation obliged us to have the matter in the hands of the Engravers and Printers long before all of the styles for the season were ready, so that by the time the book reached our customers our stock contained very many desirable goods not shown in it, and many of the styles prepared early had been sold out; therefore it never represented what we tried to have it represent, i. e., the goods that we had on hand. The result often was disappointment and delay to those ordering from it. We have found it to be much more satisfactory to give special information in answer to each individual inquiry, and that is our present plan. Tell us by mail what you require for your children -giving us some general idea of the colors desired, what the garments are for, etc., just as you would if you called personally at the store-and we will immediately send you samples, illustrations, and full descriptions of our latest styles, suitable for the purpose described. Your letter of to-day will be answered by illustrations and samples of to-day. We include Youths' and Misses' sizes up to 18 years. 60 and 62 West 23d St., N. Y.

FACETIE. TWO BEAUX TO HER STRING. CELIA. "Why do you encourage attentions from both Tom and Harry ?" IRENE. "Well, dear, I like Tom best, but he is not very well off, and can't afford a coupé if we go to the theatre. I call him my fine-weather bean."" CELIA. "Then what do you call Harry ?" IRENE. "My rain-bow." THE TELEPHONE CAT. Though most of the cats on the back-yard fence Belong to the self-same choir, And faithfully call and caterwaul, "Maria! Maria! Maria!" There's one that shouts above all the rest, At any hour that suits him best, In a strangely human, familiar tone, As if he called through a telephone, "Hello! Hello! Hello!" His voice we have learned to know; And whenever we hear it we say, "There's that Detestable nuisance-the telephone cat!" LOOKS THAT WAY. J. P. "How is your son getting along in New York, Mr. Hayseed ?" "I guess he ain't doin' as well as he says he is. He was home t'other day, an' had on a colored shirt an' a white collar. I rayther suspect he's behind with his washer-woman." A captain on one of the Bay Line steamers, plying between Baltimore and Norfolk, tells the following story of his old stewardess, well known to travellers on that route as "Aunt Maria." It seems that the old woman was skilled in making a certain gargle, and one of the passengers being troubled with a sore throat, the captain sent to ask that she would prepare some of her famous remedy for him. Meeting her in the saloon a short time after this request had been made, the captain stopped her to inquire into his friend's condition. "Well, Aunt Maria," he said, "how do you think Mr. Smith is now ?" "Well, sah, cap'n," replied Aunt Maria, setting her arms akimbo, and looking cross-eyed, as was her wo when about to deliver her opinion, "I thinks, sah, dat de apples of his ears is done fell." The captain declares that to this day he has never discovered what part of the human anatomy the apples of one's ears are, nor did he inquire into Aunt Maria's meaning, lest the old woman's explanation should involve the matter in even greater obscurity.
