Just after the war there was a crowd of

among the "touchy southerners was a Col.
Gray Of the Tennessee troops. He was
said to be "A duelist, a dead shot, fearless
man, and all that, and was therefore held
IN awe. Among those present was long,
lean, typical Yankee who had come down
to smell our cotton He looked humble
and harmless, and had been hustled around
a good deal without losing his temper.
BY some accident in moving about he
bumped the colonel and the latter prompt
~ wheeled round ON him with:
Sir, you are as clumsy as an OK.
Don't git riled, kunel; didn't mean
to, was the reply.

Some one explained to the Yankee that
he had been challenged, and he scratched
his head. whistled his surprise and follow
ing the colonel to the bar he said:
See here, kurneI, ] don't want this
blame thing hanging over me all night
and disturbing my sleep Let's have it
out now
He fshed a Remington from his right
hip pocket, and a second from his left, and.
handing one to the colonel, he advanced
his right foot and said
Toe to toe. kumel. and muzzle to breast.
That guarantees sure work and NO foolmg

There is am opinion prevailing, 20 the

The effects of sanitation are directly
opposite to that pointed out by those who
imagine they see lu e the dread result of

train of imagined ills that preys upon the
weak and distorted iances Sanitation
does not dwell on the melancholy state of

contaminators of moral purity are mainly
women women 10 whose care the sacred
flame of chastity is entrusted and who
have quenched what they ought to have
kept burning. Where men have hitherto
feared 60 tread, women have rushed in and,
with an almost MWuadiC recklessness,
sought either q shameful notoriety or the
wages of "a shameful miuistering TO the

Concerning such novels there is really
no argument bad book is bad book

THINGS a WOMAN CAN DO.

The Boston Times in a spirit Of fairness
admits. and even proclalms, that there are
some desirable things woman can do.
Here is a sample batch:
She can come to conclusion without
the slightest trouble Of reasoning omit, and
no sane man can do that
Six of them can talk at once and get along
first rate. and no two men can do that.
She can safely stick fifty pins IN her
dress while he is getting one under ms
thumb nail
She is as cool as a cucumber i'm halfdoz-
en- tight dresses and skirts, whleaman wall
sweat and fume and growl IN one loose
shirt
She can talk as sweet as peaches and
cream to the woman she hates while two
men would be punching each other heads
before they had exchanged ten words
She can throw a stone with curve that
would be a fortune to baseball pitcher
She can say no in such low voice
that il means yes.
She can sharpen a lead pencil if you
give her plenty Of time and plenty OF pen
ellis.
She can dance all night in pair Of shoes
two sizes too small for her and enjoy every
minute Of hetime.
She can appreciate kiss from her hus-
band seventy-fye years after the mar
riage ceremony is performed.
She can 90 to church and afterward tell
Won what every woman in the congregation

give Won some faint idea Of what the text
