She Swallowed the Car Fare,

If there is any one thing that makes
the horse car conductors mad it is the
custom of some folks of using their
mouths as purses for the car fares. 1t is
q great nuisance in summer during travel
on the open cars where the conductor has
a full complement of passengers. A
Lewiston conductor says that children
are the worst. Some of them disgorge a
handful of change, and he has to accept
it. One day a very pretty young lady
who was q guest in Anburn from Mas
sachusetts town, was coming down from
the lake. She was one of a gay party of
half dozen, and they made merry on
the down trip. When he was one seat
from her in his tour of the car he looked
over at her. She was SO pretty he couldn't
help it. Just as he looked he was panied
to notice fearful change in her coun-
tenance. Her cheek blanched and she
seemed to choke. Her laugh died on her
lips, too, and she joked no more. When
he got along to the party the young lady's
eyes were bedewed with tears. ell
had some money The conductor
with infinite tact says that he just passed
it along, saying: 81 know all about it.
You've swallered it. I see you do it. "
The young lady blushed and the car
ratified along. A child with five coppers
in its mouth is fearful picture for the
conductor, but what do you think of one
with "a cents in its cheeks? Better buy
the youngsters 10 cent purses. es.-Lewiston

Thought It Was the Tariff:

Old Uncle Peter Simonson was, in his
day, one of the richest of ante-bellum
planters. He owned and worked more
than 800 slaves, and nearly all of the
river bottom lands along the Ocmulgee
river between Hawkinsville and Macon,
Ga, were tended by his men.
He was quite q sportsman and spent
the greater portion of his time hunting
about his plantations or fishing up and
down the river. He had been born and
raised of poor parents right upon the
Indian frontier, when the Creeks held
the greater portion of Georgia, and had
lived there all his life. He usually had
a negro boy along with him when he
hunted to carry home his game for him.
One day in the latter part of the year
1886, while hunting in the swamps about
six miles below Macon, his attention was
attracted by singular noise. He has
tened to the river bank, when something,
the like of which he had never seen in
his life, came slowly around the bend
below him with fire and smoke and
much putting. He Jumped for his gun
and climbed the nearest poplar tree.
"Skin up that ar tree, Sambo," old
Peter yelled to the little darkies.
"All right, massa; what is it?''
'One of them ar tariffs I've hearn con-
gress hev been Threatening to send down
to destroy our craps and eat us up,

with his rifle in his hand until the
"thing" went out of sight around the
next point above him. It was the first
steamboat that came up the Ocmulgee as
far as sMacon.-Detroit Free Press.

What is to prevent any young farmer
or land owner from planting and rails
ing valuable crop of walnut trees?
asks an exchange. Nothing. He can
put his walnuts in the ground, feeling
assured that with proper care and atten-
ton he is sure of a valuable crop in his
old age, one that will net him fortune
as certailny as his trees reach market
able size. There will be no more risk
attending the cultivation of this kind
of a crop than attends the ordinary run
of business investments. If the owner
of the trees should die before the time
that they become salable, his family
will have a most valuable legacy. Be-
sides, it is also a fact that SO or 60 acres
of young walnut timber-say 10 years
old-would have ready market, as
many farmers would be willing
to invest in promising tract of timber
that had got so good start. Instead
ofallowing part of almost every farm
to be waste land, as is now the custom
in this country, sagacious farmers can
lay the foundations of their fortunes by
gathering few bushels of walnuts and
using them in the way nature intended
that they should be used. Why can't
men wait on the trees for IS years, as
well as commend in early life to save
every penny, hoping to get a few thous-
and dollars ahead by the time they are
so?

rha IHomsn Of .Isnan.

The better class Of japanese women
are by no means uneducateo. They re-
ceive, am told, a better training than
the women of any other Oriental nation,
and they are better treated than those of
any other Asiatic nation. The Japanese
girl can, as a rule, read and write Ja-
panese. She learns all about household
matters, and she takes the whole charge
of the household. This Is her sphere,
and she is known as the honorable mis-
tress of the household. Her husband has
no right to be meddling with the cooking
stove. She pays the servants and the
market bills. In the case of the poorer
merchants she often acts as one of the
clerks in the stores and takes the place Of
the husband when he is not present.
In the country you will find her often
working in the fields, and at Nikko /
saw great numbers of women who acted
as the leaders of pack horses carrying
copper and goods up and down the
mountains. Still, think the women
here have an easier time than those Of
the lower classes of Germany or Hol-
land, and you see fewer labor hardened
faces among the other sex here than you
do in many of the countries of Europe.
The wife is, however, after all but little
better than the servant Of the husband,
and the ties Of marriage and divorce are
here so loose that he can dispense with
her at pleasure. Marriage in Japan is
not attended with the solemnity and re-
ligious ceremony of the American we'd
ding. 1t is a civil contract, and the ne
gotiations for it go on, as rule, through
the parents. The young man and woman
have no preliminary courtship, and the
seeing one another for one or two times
is the only chance they have of deciding
whether there is any compatibility of
temperament.-Frank G. Carpenter.

Playing Cards.

The first pack Of playing cards of
which any copy is preserved was in use
in Venice in 1926, and contained seventy
eight cards in all, TWENTY-FIVE of which
were picture cards of very quaint char
acter. One picture card represented the
devil, another death, o third the moon,
fourth the sun. while the fifth depicted
the judgment day. The venetians called
it the game of tarots, and it was no
doubt the original parent of the modern
card pack, with its kings, queens,
knaves, etc. The French developed the
game greatly, and it became the stan
dard pastime of all the royal courts of
the Sixteenth century. Cards became SO
prominent q feature Of social life in
France that when the revolution came
new card packs were devised in which
kings and queens were done away with,
philosophers and popular heroes and
heroines taking their places. Boston

Driving the Devil Out.

A dispatch from Huntington, Indiana,
says: David and Jacob Dill have been
preaching holiness or sanctifcation by
fasting. The brothers have exemplified
their faith on several occasions by shut
ting themselves up in room and re-
mainiug without food for several days.
A few days ago they began to fast, but
this time departed from their usual rule
and walked from place to place, exhor-
ting and praying as they went. They
walked to this place from Paulding, o.,
sixty miles, and since their arrival here
have taken daily walks of varying
length. Last night, after returning
from a holiness meeting which they
held near the Jacobs farm, they became
possessed with the idea that the devil
was In their room, and they endeavored
to drive him out. The furniture flew
in every direction. A rocking-chair
crashed through the window and land
ed in the middle of the street, followed
by other articles of household use. The
people of the house at which they are
stopping rushed to the room and en-
deavored to quiet the fanatics. but were
taken for emissaries of the Evil One
and driven into the street by fusillade
of all sorts of objects. The neighbors
were aroused by the crash of breaking
glass and and furniture, and finally,
after desperate struggle, the brothers
were overpowered and bound. They
were placed in Jail, but no inducements
will cause them to break their self-im-
posed fast. They will probably be le-
gally examined as to their sanity and
placed in lunatic asylum. Both men
are farmers and have considerable pro-
pertY.

more than double the yield of last year.
AS each box holds on an average of $50

slovenliness in Verse Making.

Men and women who seriously take up
the business of verse writing should, in
my opinion. declare to themselves that
they will write nothing but perfect
rhymes They may not be able to turn off
good poetry. judged by the highest stand
ards; their verse may halt now and then.
owing to defective ear; the metaphors
they use may be hacbneyed, their rhetoric
far fetched or milk and watery: their style
poor. pale imitation of that particular
master whom, in their reading, they have
most lived with and loved. All this may
be. for reasons. beyond their power of
remedy.
But one thing they can do, and should
do always. namely, see to it that their
rhymes are not false rhymes. or rhymes
for the eye alone. but true ear rhymes,
where there is an actual agreement and
consonance of sound. Hardly any poet
aster alive is incapable of knowing such a
rhyme when he sees it or, by the minds
ear, hears it. A poem is, after all, and
primarily, musical production: hence
any falling short of it's musical demands
Injuries the poem by just so much, and the
rhyme at the end of the line is one of the
most distinct and well known methods of
securing this desired music-Richard E.

The Breezes of Cape Town.

OF all the desolate. unkempt looking
places in the world the suburb of Cape

it, blows the strongest, and the cape

Where it comes from no one quite
knows, for it is purely local wind, and
it always seems possible to get behind it
by going few miles to the windward.
Some people aver that it is brewed on top
Of the mountain and comes down lust
upon Cape Town itself and nowhere else.
There are all sorts Of queer things going
on on top of this mountain; witness for
instance, the celebrated white tablecloth
that hangs over it whenever G. south

comes from it is an unmistakable reality,
as you soon learn, for it whirls barrow
loads of gravel in your face, or spins you
around like a teetotum at the street cor.
