A Call for Hercules.

A peasant who was driving cart
along country road had the misfor-
tune to get ''stalled" in mudhole. In
this emergency he slammed down his
hat, cracked his heels together and
loudly called for Hercules to aid him.
Old Here. leisurely appeared from the
nearest corn field, and when he saw
what the row was he hit off piece of
plug and observed
''Put your shoulder to the wheel and
boost her ont. The gods help those
who help themselves
'l'll see you in Texas first!' replied
the peasant, and he sat down to wait
for the mud to dry up. While waiting
for this event he made - on IA dog
trade, put up three lightning rods, sold
a washing machine for 81 and got his
board for nothing. At the end of four
days his old mule walked off with the
cart without any boosting, and the
peasant figured that he was about $40
ahead of that community.
MOral-DOn't break your back for
Hercules or any other old moss back.

VOLUME 46---NUMBER 1857.

"Well, we've got his horse, at any
rate" said the farmer; ''and he is
worth more than 500"
"HallO - said the man John, who had
been taking the saddle-bags from the
strange horse.
"What is it, John ~
'These bags are full of something
81 should think So said the farmer,
us he unstrapped the leather bags.
They were found to contain some
counterfeit plates, quantity of coun-
terfeit money, in various bills, and also
little over $500 in good money.
"HuzZa ~ cried the farmer.
"What is it, father p said Maude.
"Why, your trip to Easton has prov
ed profitable one, at all events. Here
is over $500, good money!
"Ah, but it will be claimed by the
owner"
"Do you think cOunterfeiter will
dare to come for the tools that would
convict him to say nothing of the
highway robbery"
81 didn't think of that"
That evening Henderson sent John
over to young Masters with message
to call round and see him, to which
Harry responded instantly.
"Mr. Masters" said the farmer, Us he
came into the large, old fashioned sit
ting-room, ''you remember what you
asked of me this afternoon ?"
Eyes, sir"
"Well, | give my consent. Maudt
has just furnished her own marriage
portion. Take her, my boy, and bt
happy"

even If not a perfect representation of
the original, would make the specimt
more attractive to the visitors than the
skeleton would be without "a head. "
Hence he fitted it up, not for criticism,
but to render it more interesting tn the
casual observer. 1t is supposed bv
some that no other specimens of the
kind have ever been found, but in ISl7
portion of skeleton of the same
species was found in the same kind of
clay near Montreal, fifteen feet below
the surface and one hundred feet above
sea level. These bones, consisting of
nineteen consecutive vertebrH and
some other parts of the skeleton, are
in the British Museum of Geological
Survey. Thompson also mentions 9TH
ers which have been found, without
giving location. 1t is, however. a fact
that at this time no other skeleton of
the kind so perfect as the one in our
state collection exists DIR. II. \. Cut

The Marriage Portion.

There lived about five or six miles
from EaStOn, Pa, Il few Years since an
honest farmer named Henderson, who
had two very pretty daughters
and Maude. The first was about TWEEN
ty years of age while the latter was
barely nineteen. The farmer was Il
thrifty, well-to-do man, though by no
means rich but the family lived in
excellent style, and the daughters had
received a good education.
Both of these girls were pretty, but
Maude WAS perhaps the handsOmer.
There was no lack of attentive young
gentlemen at the farm, though the
neighborhOod was not very thickly set
tied ; but "beauty draws us with a sin
gle hair" and the young ladies were
the center of gay little circle of
friends.
By and by it came about that an
earnest, handsome and sturdy young
farmer fell desperately in love with
Maude, and proposed to her. On her
part she loved Harry Masters above all
the young fellows she knew, and told
him frankly that he might speak to her
father. In the meantime she cOntided
the matter to her mother-a kind
hearted, sympathetic parent-whO saw
no objection te the choice of her daugh
ter but all was left for the father to
decide.
Henderson was very straightfOr-
ward and open -mOuthed man-that is,
he said exactly what he meant, nc
more nor less, and that he uttered free
ly. When Harry Masters called him
one side and told his especial errand as
to Maude, the father said: "Well, Mr.
Masters, Maude is young. | wanted
| Ellen 10 he married first she's the old
est, and have got marriage portion
of $1,000 to give her; but | haven't
laid by anything yet for Maude."
81 have got pretty well beforehand
Mr.. Henderson, for man but twenty
four years old, and we shall be able tc
do very we'll, have no doubt"
"Iou mean you'll take Maude with
ont any marriage portion Y said the
father.
eyes, sir, very gladly"
"Well, it's pleasant to hear you say
so, because it shows your honest affec
ton, Mr.. Masters but | am too prouG
to let Maude marry until can give he
| a thousand or two towards hOusekeep
ing"
alt is not worth waiting for, sir, a
long as We really don't need it an'
both are content"
"Then, again, I'd rather Maud'
wouldn't marry until her sister is mar
ried, because she is so much older d.
+ you seeG 1t will actually make her al
old maid. 1t isn't fair, Mr.. Masters"
ELLEN is very popular with the gen
tlemen and will soon be married." SAT-

VermOnI's Fossil Whale.

The skeleton of the Vermont whale
in our state cabinet has recently been
the subject of much inquiry, and the
following particulars will doubtless be
of much interest. This skeleton was
discovered in Charlotte in August,
1919, while workmen were deepening
an excavation on the railroad, and il is
learned from John II. ThOrp, of Char
lOtte, that it was his father, j. g.
ThOIp, now living at an advanced age,
to whom we are indebted for the pres
ervatiOn of this valuable fossil. At the
time the wOrkmen were shovclling out
the dirt containing the bones he hap
pened to be at the place. As he was
educated as physician, his attention
was at once attracted to them, and he
recognized the fact that they belonged
to peculiar kind of creature He
asked the OVerseer to put his wOrkmen
on the other side of the track, which
he did. Mr.. Thorp then went to the
dump and requested the men to dump
the dirt OH the other side so the broken
fragments could be saved. He collect
ed what he could and sent them to la
dock Thompson of Burlington, with a
request to come and examine the local
ity. Mr.. Thompson Immediately did
so, stopping with Mr.. Thorp, and they
together dug out the remaining por-
tiOns.
1t is often observed by visitors that
the head is not like the head of d
whale. The bones of the head wer,
mostly destroyed, and A. ID. Hagar
curator of the cabinet at the time the
bones were purchased of Thompson,
estate, made Il plaster head as near a,
he could from his ideas of it, gained
from the fragmentary bones found. II,
says of his own production: "The out
line of the head may not be true to ma
ture, but | concluded that an artificial
head, embracing what bones were pre-
! served, if attached to the skeleton

The Treasury.

LOOKING FOR A SUCCESSOR TO UPTON.
WASHINGTON, Feb. IA conference
between the president and secretary of
the treasury was held, it is re-
ported, during the past week in
relation to the succession to Upton.
Some difference as to the person arose,
the president, however, pursuing his
avowed policy of leaving the choice OF
such officers to the head of the depart
ment. He recently remarked that
when he could no longer rely upon the
judgement of q secretary IN such mat
tiers it would be necessary to have n
new secretary. No agreement was re-
ported as to the nominee for Upton's
seat. The president is understood to
have suggested the name of an ex-sen-
ator. Mr.. Folger replied that he did
not know him, and presented the name
of republican lawyer of whom Mr..
Arthur remarked that he was not known
we'll enough to carry the representative
weight such an office required. 1t is
asserted that the secretary would real
ly prefer to appoint former law part
ner of his own, who, however, happens
to be democrat. 1t is also rumored
that the name suggested by the secre-
ment clerk.
Ex-Gov. Gear of Iowa was offered the
position of the assistant secretary of
the treasury, but declined. He is a
wholesale grocer of Burlington, and
has a trade worth more than any office
will pay him.
