They tell strange stories Of English
clergymen of the olden time. There
was certain DIR. Farmer, an Oxford
don, who had country living near
the university. which he was accustom'
ed to serve with great punctuality. He
was man of very unclerical demeanor,
and one day in barber shop he was
reminded of the fact in ludicrous
manner.
well, what news?" said the clergy.
man to the barber. as he took his seat
in the chair.
Il saw Tom, yesterday" was the
artists reply, "and he made such q
bad remark about you'll"
"What was IL" asked Farmer.
Indeed, sir, could not tell you;
it was too bad to repeat.
The clergyman insisted on knowing,
and at length the barber, with great
show of reluctance, replied: "Why,
sir, he said you wasn't fit to carry
meat to Bear"
"And what did you say?" asked the
Doctor.
Il said, sir" replied the barber, with
enthusiastic loyalty, "that you toas!"

It's Vast Extent.

Nearly all schoolboys are familiar
with the fine passage from speech by
Daniel Webster in which he alluded to
the territorial extent of Great Britain's
possessions. He spoke of the morning
drum-beat keeping company with the
hours and saluting the flag of Great
Britain as the sun journeyed around
the earth. Sir Richard Temple, at the
scientific meeting at Montreal, read a
paper on the vast extent of the English
power. One-ffth of the habitable
globe is under the sway of Queen Vic
toria. Her subjects number 315, 900, 900,
and Australia and Canada have room
for 200, 100000 more. The annual rev.
enue of the empire amounts to 81, 01S,-
100000. Local taxes swell this sum
1905, 100000 more, so that the entire
cost of government is about $50 per
capita annually. These are impressive
figures; but our own country is rapidly
overtaking Great Britain in wealth and
population. Our relative increase is
much greater. In the pregnant words
of Prime Minister Gladstone, the
United States is passing England at a
canter. "-Demoresfs Monthly.

Mules and Horses.

The question as to the status of the
mule in the animal kingdom is a much
mooted one here. An ordinance was
passed by the Council some months since
prohibiting certain animals, among
them horses, from running at large
within the city limits. Mules were
omitted accidentally, it is supposed.
The owner of one OF these animals was
arraigned before our former Mayor
charged with violating the ordinance
in question. He pleaded i'll bar of the
offense that mules were not included
in the ordinance. The Mayor accepted
the plea and discharged him on the
ground that "a mule was not q horse. I"
Since that time the owners of these
kicking quadrupeds have not been slow
to take advantage of the decision, as
we'll as of tlR defective ordinance. The
present executive, however, has just
fined one of these parties, deciding that
in contemplation OF the law "a mule is q
horse. "-Roanoke (Va.) Cor. Lynch

Mrs. l.. E. HILLS, of Elgin, ILL.,. has
o copy of the we'll known poem: ooh,
Why Should the Spirit of Mortal Be
Proud" in the handwriting of Abraham
Lincoln. She was once a member of q
concert company, which CHANGED to put
up at the same hotel with Mr.. Lincoln
in Western town, when he was a
candidate for the Presidency. In the
evening the singers entertained the
company in the parlor for time, and
then called upon Mr. Lincoln. "My
friends" said he, II couldn't sing a
tune, not even old Hundred. if it were
to save my life, but / can recite poem
for you" Then stepping to the other
side of the parlor that he might face
them all, he said: II will recite to you
what / consider one of the finest pro-
auctions of the English language" and
then in an impressive manner recited
the poem. As Mr. Lincoln was leav-
ing the room after his recitation, Mrs.
Hills asked him who the author of the
poem was and where il could be found.
Lincoln replied that he did not know.
But" he added, "if you wish it 1 will
write you out a copy of it." The next
morning while Mrs. Hills was eating
her breakfast, Lincoln handed her the
copy he had promised. 1t was written
on the old-fashioncd blue legal cap.

The Rirpest BIunders

Made by man are those which affect the relative
conditions of health and disease. Among them
are the resort to violent medication. the obstin-
ate adherence to detetio rules without refer
ence to their adaptabiltty to the system, and
worst of all disregard of small ailments. Ex-
tremists who are guilty of such follies deserve
to suffer. The use of Hostetters Stomach Bit
tiers, the abandonment of dosing the selection
of diet consonant with the stomach. and O
prompt resort to the first-these are conditions
precedent to q recovery OF sound digestion, the
restoration of vigor, hillary activity, and a regu-
lar action of the bowels. 1t is n fatal delusion
to suppose that minor ailments wear away Of
themselves. Diseases. no matter how trivial In
their inception, beget others In the early stages
of fever and ague rheumatism, dyspepsia, con-
stipation and kidney troubles, a prompt re-
course TO the Bitters Is wise precaution.

The Cathedral In Mexico.

The great cathedral in the City OF
Mexico is the largest in America, and
cost nearly $2,000,000. 1t was COM
menced by the Spaniards in 1873, on
the site of the old Aztec temple, OF
pyramid, and finished in 1867. Its
facade is beautifully carved. Against
its western wall leans the celebrated
Calendar Stone, covered with hero
glyphics and weighing twenty-five
tons. It's cast, which the Mexican gov
eminent is at present engaged in TAX
ing, will be exhibited at the New
Orleans Exposition. Within the cathe-
dral are number of paintings, some
of them said to be the work Of Murillo.

"COOn Los. Shuah.o

"Doggone eff dis coon hain't los his

saluted the ears of Detroit business
man as he was passing up Jefferson
avenue on his way to the Brush street

"lost lamb" in the person of q very

How MexIcO's Popular Beverage Was
Discovered.

Somewhere about the year 5000
the legend runs "a Toltec Indian,
whose name was Papantzin, was the
first to discover that the juice of the
maguey (Agave Americana, better
known to us as aloe or century plant }
might be distilled into beverage fit
for the gods. Desiring to bring this
new blessing into royal favor, he called
his only daughter-Xochitl, signifying
"the flower and commissioned her as
cup-bearer to the King. This ancient
Hebe, we are told, was young and
beautiful, and the monarch not only
drank and praised the pulque, but
welded the maiden; and to this day
the beverage of old Papantzin who
was no doubt called "Pap" by his duti-
full children-is the universal beverage
of the lower classes in Mexico. Ma
guey is as much of feature of this
country as trees are of the United
States. All over the land it fiourishes,
cultivated with care in many places,
growing out of bare rocks on the
mountain side. and springing up as q
weed in the waterless deserts. 1t has
an infinite variety of uses, and is to the
Mexican Indian what the reindeer is to
the Esquimau or the rice-plant to the
Chinaman. - Cor. Pittsburgh Dis

Strange PlayfellOws.

"Queen" and little Don Melville is
taken from the article by John k. Cor

Just toddle, Don would run up to Queen
with chuckle of delight, and putting
his white, plump little arms around her
great brown, hairy trunk, would tug
away with all his little strength, as if
he believed he could pull that living
mountain over.
"And, strange to say, he actually &C.
complished his object, for Queen
humored the little fellows fancy.
Swaying and rumbling with delight,
she would gradually allow herself to
come to her knees, and finally to fall
over on her side. And it was touching
to see how oil the time she kept her
eyes lovingly on the beautiful baby,
taking care that no movement of hers
should even disturb him!
"Whcn she was at last PROSTATE, Don
would look around as if to say, See
what can dor Then he would initiate
what he had seen the trainer perform.
He would Chamber and climb until he
was on Queens head, and there he

fist into the elephants eye or to swing
his foot into her mouth, but not mo-

while he sat there, for she seemed to

high perch.

dealers of putting up decayed and in
