There goes the Prinee of Kiters re marked a former bank clerk of Newark us he pointed to a middle aged man with a look of trouble on his face who Tvas leaving the bank at the corner of Ive been in Broad and J5ank streets the business pretty extensively myself but I must give him the credit of being able to fly a bigger debt keeping up a respectable show all the time than any other poor fellow who has been ground between the Shylocks who lend money and the notaries who protest checks There are more kiters than you dream of I can soon tell one just as a gambler can pici out a gambler or one iin pecune recojnize another Every species of animal has its own marks and habits When I see a man shinning around Newark every morn ¬ ing an hour or two after he ought to be at his store or office in 2vew York and trying to borrow somebodys check here and having hurried interviews with the notary there I say to myself- hai poor wretch is in the toils too In some way he contracted a small debt which he didnt want any one to know about and he thought to pull through by doing a little kite flying Its a mostly expedient I can assure Jou from experience It costs time lare disconntsand fre quent notary fees and the longer you go on the worse it is UI lived too expensively and got be hind financially I kept putting on creditors to whom I owed finally 400 but they pressed me hard until I bor rowed a friends check for 100 ana used it in satisfying for a time the hounds vho were after me Tv heu it became due I gave my own cheek to meet it and then borrowed another friends check to deposit against my own Thats the way I got started iiy creditors wanted the rest of their money andi therefore I borrowed 300 from a brother clerk paying a good discount for it So I kept on borrowing money and checks I found it easy at first to icpay the loans as they became due and was foolish enough to raise more money than I really needed and ¬ ¬ mark meeting of the sun and sea How long they kiss

spent in working the scheme hours I Every mornng before the banks opened I was flying around town borrowing friends checks for two or three dajs getting loans of money at high rates of usury and trying to fix things uiththe notaries And every day the debt was larger and the feat of flying it more difficult fortunately I was lucky in a speculation and was wise enough to nse the money thus made

aboun the two parties is satisfactory nn Middle class interview is arranged people arrangethis first meeting at the Opera Comique the most correct and decorous of all Parisian theatres The aristocrats prefer the churches of Saint Clotilde or Thomas dAquin The young man is told that the young lady will wear such and such a hat and concealed furtively behind a pillar he examines her and decides whether she pleases him or not If her parents are less severe the first meeting may take place in a friendly house at a picture exhibition at a iiower shoAV or what not and the parties are allowednot only to see each other but to exchange a few words The following day a reply has to be given If it is negative on the part of the young woman her father writes to the young man thanking him for tbe honor of his demand and regretting for some reason or another not to be able to receive it favorably If it is affirmative the mother writes and invites the young man to call upon her in the afternoon The young man then sends a white bou- ¬ quet to the yoang woman whom he may consider to be his flan ee and until the marriage is celebrated he must continue to send a bouquet every morning of roses camellias gardenias or violets Two or three days after his accept- ¬ ance the contract is signed the engagement ring offered a sapphire a pearl or a ruby never a diamond and the young man is invited to dine in the family of his future wife every night The marriage is celebrated six weeks or two months after the engagement that is to say just time enough is left to buy the corbeille and trousseau The cor beille consists of diamonds and lace cashmere wraps two opera shawls cloaks four ball dres es zibeline furs a scent bottle a watch a purse full ol golden pieces a card case a pearl necklace
