Aen nting for a Wife.

The other morning a man with gray hairs and many wrinkles stood around one of the standée in the Central Market for a time, and finally offered the keeper a cigar and made some observations about the weather. This broke the ice, and by and by the stranger said ;

*‘] want to ask your advice. I live in one of the northern counties and have been a widower six years. I want to get married again. I came down here to buy some machinery and I’ve con- cluded to kill two birds with the one stone and take a wife back with the machinery. How shallI go to work to find one to-day ?”

“It's pretty short notice,” stand-keeper.

“I know, but I can’t waste much time. I’m worth $7,000, havea mild disposition, and will give some woman a good home.”

‘Are you particular as to looks 1”

“Not very.”

“If you could get a woman with a cataract on the left eye, but all right otherwise, would you take her ?”

Il think I would. I don’t see why { should be so particular about a cata- ract.”

The stand-keeper tooked around for a minute and then snapped his finger at a girl twenty-three years of age, who came from a fish stand.

“Katie, come here.

replied the

This man wants

a wife.” “Yes, sir.” “Worth $7,000, good tempered, and wants to marry before noon. ‘“*] geo, sir.” “Will you have him ?” “Lean’tsir. Il’ve just engaged my-

self yesterday.”

“Can’t you find him some one?’

“Yes,sir. If he will kindly wait uatil I get somebody to ‘tend the stand, I'll go with him to a woman who asked me to find her a husband.”

“Well, anything else?” asked the stand-keeper as the man was ready to go.

“No, nothing else, much obliged for your kindness.’

In about an hour he returned,looking a bit downeast, and said :

**Come to see her, she had a broken nose,a short leg and a case of neuralgia. [ guess I'll let the matter go until I come down here and spend about two days looking around. That'll sort give me a chance to look over the aristocracy and make a pick.”

Hard Work for Two.

When Nibson came home from busi- ness the other night, he found his some- what better half with her head tied up, and generally in a weary and used-up condition.

“What is the matter, my dear?” he gently inquired.

“Oh, Joho, I have had suck a hard days work, Ll am completely worn out.’

“What have you being doing ?"

“Just shopping. I have hunted through allthe stores on Sixth and Righth avenues, and heve gone nearly the entire tength of Broadway, too.”

“What did you buy ?”

“Nothing at all. I have been trying to match that gray silk tor the front width of my new dress, but had to give itup. Iam sure there is no work 580 trying as shopping.

The next night—that is to say, at an early hour of the morning following the aight—Nibson got home in a sadly de- moralized condition, shattered mentally and physically, and emitting a strong odor of fusel-oil.

“Why, John, what on earth can have kept you out so late?’ demanded the angel of the household, who sat up for him. ‘What have you being doing to yourself *’ Where have you been ?”

‘Jes’ a-shoppin’, m/'‘dear,” he indis- tinctly replied. “Y's terrible hard work. Went inter ev’ry s’loon on Six’ avenoo, and lots of ’em on side streets, to match a drink of whiskey I got Vother day, but had to give it up. Th’r’ aio’t nothin’ ’s balf so tryin’ as shoppin’, betcher life.”

The Baby, Not Disappointed.

“]’meafraid,” said the head of the firm to the junior partner, “that Boggs, our book-keeper, is keeping bad company. I notice that he has been looking stupid and drowsv for the past three months, and today I caught him asleep over his booke. Ill have a talk with him.

Why, blame the rascal, I’m really angry athim. Why, it hasn't been much more than a year since he married one of the loveliest little

women ig this town,

“Yes, that’s just if,” replied the junior partner, “He has been married long enough to bea father, and that baby is so croas that poor Boggs tells me that he doesn't get three houre sleep anight. It’s a case of colicky baby and not badness.”

“Ho, ho!” exclaimed the senior

pariner. “I’msorry for Boggs. I’ve been there “myself.” NOTES, Not the promissory, but facts about
