An acent for a patent cburn wen

An agent for patent churn went
down into Ogiethorpe, Ca, a few days
ago and stopped at Colonel Joe
Baughn's to sell him patent churn.
The churn agent was informed that
Mr.. Baughn was cleaning out the we'll,
and if he wanted to see him he would
have to go down. The agent got into
the bucket and found Mr.. Baughn at
the bottom. Colonel Joe bought the
churn and signaled the men at the top
to draw the agent up and to not let
any one come down unless it was
lightning rod man.

How Laughter Indicates Character.

It is unquestionably true that the
many different varieties of laughter are
indicative of particular tempers and
characteristics. An eastern authority
on the subject has carefully classified
them, and peculiar classification il is,
too.
1t is based upon the sound of the
vowel that prevails in the laugh. Thus
persons who laugh in a broad Latin
"a" are open hearted, honest people,
fond of noisy jocundity, but perhaps OF
voluble mood. Excessive jerking laugh
ter, however. is an evieence of vul-
garity. Those laughing in dry CAP
are respectable, but little expansive,
and hard lot of people. When the
Latin ''E'' prevails there prevails also
phlegmatic, melancholy temper.
Timorous, unsteady people, also those
imbued with malignity, laugh in a
kind of swelling al" Laughing in
30" is the utterance of proud, bold,
imperative, somewhat bantering peo-
pie. Beware of those who laugh in
900" Guy. They are traitors, haters,
scorners. City Journal.

A Dog in the Bean Pot.

A Springfield man travelling in
Douglas County stopped at a log cabin
late in the afternoon to get his supper.
While seated at the table dog came
in and socked his head clear to his
shoulders into a pot of beans.
A little after the woman arose from
the table to replenish the bean dish.
She was scrapng out the remnants.
when the gentleman mildly suggested
that the dog had just been a guest at
the pot.
The woman turned on him with
blazing eyes, and while her face fairly
grew black with choked up anger,
said: Stranger, we'un is pore folks

The CARD OF thn Exen.

At the sanitary convention held at Ann
Arbor, Mich, not long ago, DIR. @. J.
Lundy, of Detroit, read paper on "Hy-
giene in Relation to the Eye" which
should have the widest circulation, espe-
cially among teachers and school officers.
A fruitful source Of eye troubles Is shown
to be the excessive strain upon the mus
cles and nerves of the eyes due 70 faulty
educational methods, the i'll planned and
insufficient lighting of schoolrooms, poor
ink and fine print in school books, and
other causes which education might cor
rect.
In conclusion, DIR. Lundy lays down the
following rules for the better care OF the
eyes:
|. Avoid reading and study by poor
light.
@ Light should come from the side,
and not from the back or from the front.
3. Do not read or study while suffering
great bodily fatigue or during recovery
from illness.
a. Do not read while lying down.
8. Do not use the eyes too long at q
time for near work, bnt give them oc-
casional periods of rest.
6. Reading and studying should be
done systematically.
Z. During study avoid the STOPPING posi-
tion. orewhatever tends to produce con-
gestion of the head and face.
8. Select well printed books.
8. Correct errors of refractIon with
proper glasses.
10. Avoid bad hygienic conditions and
the use of alcohol and tobacco.
IL. Take sufficient exercise In the open
air.
12. Let the physical keep pace with the
mental culture, for asthenopla Is most
usually observed in those who are lacking
in physical Development -ScientidcAmer-

The rditOr.s worst Torment.

The man who does not appreciate the
fact that every moment of a newspaper
mans time is valuable, and that his le-
gitimate duties demand his closest atten-
tion during all of his hours at his desk,
without unnecessary distractions, is Q
bore who should never be allowed to enter
a newspaper Office. His class. unfortun-
ately is large one, and makes its pres
ence uncomfortably felt in every news

bores known in all the circles OF news
