A sense of humor has never been a
bar to ecclesiastical preferment, and,
indeed, it sometimes happens that Dig
nitayies of the church are famous for
their witticisms. This is the case with
certain clergyman of the Church Of
England, man of Irish birth who
was lately raised to an exalted biSh,
opric.
Accompanying his appointment,
there was a certain readjustment of
employments and preferments in the
diocese and with it came few promo
tions.
At this time the new bishop was Wis
tied by curate whose manners and
services had not commended him to
his ecclesiastical superiors, and who
thought that his time had now come
to make decided push for living
that is, the charge of parish.
Well, my lord" said the curate ::
now that it's raining livings, what are
YOU going to give me?"
Il can lend you an umbrella" said
the bishop, coolly.
The curate departed without his pre-
ferment. Youths Companion.

A charming story IS told of Corliss,
the great engine builder, in Food,
Home and GdTje1l:
\ short tine before his death Cor
iss found it necessary to enlarge his
great machine shops, and set squad
of men at work to prepare the material
for building.
While the maSons were arranging to
blast huge rock, workman, point
ing to bird lowering over ledge high
up in the rock, said:
THAT bird will have to change its
nesting in short order if it wants to
save its neck.
Are there eggs IN the nest?" in
CURED Mr.. prliss, with evident in
terest.
"Yes, four little speckled fellows
over which the mother bird has been
fussing ever since We began to work,
replied the man. THE young birds
will soon be peeping through the deli
cate shells.
Then let the work stop until the
birdlings are ready to fly, was the
great hearted mans command.

"A Very Rash Bum Gets Put Into an In yoI-
untary S'ePp.
Probably one of the most surprised
DULLES that ever attempted to make
game of man, now nurses q black eye
and broken nose, out in Milwaukee,
where he lives. He was standing in the
doorway of Grand avenue store few
nights since, talking with another
tough man and leering at every man
and woman who CHANGED to pass that
way, when, under the electric light
which bids the weary wayfarer welcome
saw wha11 he was pleased to call dude
coming III thei" direction, smoking u
cigar
"D'ye see ther dude comm, missy 2"
he said to his companion.
Yes, an I tink it's dirty shame
dat he is oilin' dat nice cigar when
he is only fit to smoke cigarettes.
Oats fact, me boy, an I'm blamed
if intend to stand it. See?"
what you going to do about it."
Gust watch me, an if I don't have
dat cigar inside of a minute, den I'll
eat me hat, OATS all"
AS the young man drew near, the
bully stepped from the door, and APP
preaching the unsuspecting pedestrian,
said:
"Say, me lad, let me take your cigar,
will you?"
The young man thinking that the
fellow desired light, knocked the
ashes off his weed, aud handed it to the
stranger, who, with smile, placed it
between his teeth
What do you mean by that ?" asked
the astonished young fellow as he saw
the use his cigar had been put to.
80! OATS all right, bub," said the
tough man; dis is a pleasant little
way dat [ have when time hangs heav-
ily on my hands. Run on home now
or your mother will be worried. See?"
Eyes, think that see" replied the
young man as he stepped up in front
of the loafer, "but. strange as it may
seem, my mother is not in the hab OF
getting worried, and there is no occa-
sion of my shortening my stay with
YOU. Besides, | too, have pleasant
little way of my own to pass away the
time when the same hangs heavily on
my hands. 1t is something like
this"
In another moment the bully was
stretched out on the sidewalk with one
eve closed, and when he arose blow
on the bridge of his nose once more
laid him out. The young man whom
he had sized up as a dude turned out to
be one of the crack boxers in the gym
nasium, and two blows of his scientific
fist had been sufficient to put the tough
to sleep.

The Proof Which Ri: Advertisers r. quirc
that Their Contracts Are Fulfilled.
"Some of the big mercantile firms
that rely largely upon liberal adver-
Using for their patronage" said a big
tract attention. The cost of advertis
ing with them is not limited to tn
mere payment of the newspapers,
painters, bill-posters, and others who
undertake to display their announce
ments; but there are a number of nee
essary expenses incidental to these
which are by no means small items in
the total expenditure Many employ
men to originate striking forms of adj
vertisements, and the demand for men
Of special genius in that direction is 50
great that very large salaries are of
fered them. Some Of these firms, es-
pecially tho Sc who deal in patent med
icines, employ man whose sole duty
it is to see that the contracts for dis
playing before the public their adj
vertlsements are carried out as agreed.
This man has to do a great deal of
travelling.
"One of the forms of advertising,
which is extensively INDUCED in by
these firms, is the painting of signs
on the fences and rocks along the lines
Of the railroads which enter this town.
In making contract with bill-poster,
who usually does this work, the firm
specifies the style and size of the signs
1t wants, and the places where it wants
them displayed. The bill-poster sends
ouj his men, presumably to fulfill the
term of the contract; but these men
travel over hundreds of miles of terri
tory, and the question arises, How can
the firm be certain that its provisions
have been properly carried out? 1t is
impossible for the members of the firm
to spend time in going over all these
miles personally, and, as result they
have to employ man who can do it tor
them. This man can do little else
"If the firm would rest content with
his assurances, his labor would be com
paratively light, but one of the first
principles of big mercantile firm
seems to be that, SO far as possible, the
assertions of all employee should be
supported by material proof. 1t would,
of course, be possible for the man vino
firm by conspiring with the bill-poster,
and, to prevent this possible collu-
sion, novel form of proof that the
work has been properly done has
been devised. The firms agent fol-
lows in the footsteps of the bll-post-
er's workmen. He is provided with a
camera, and he photographs every one
of the firms signs. AS each photo
graph takes in not only the signs but
the surrounding scenery, the firm is of
course convinced that the number
Of signs contracted for have been duly
made, aud also that they are in the
places designated by it. These photo
graphs are kept until the terms of the
contract have expired, and frequently
one firm will have a collection of thou
sands of photographs of a particular
sign. in the background Of which will

The Marine Band is one of the fea-

band has had long history. It began
it's existence as early as 1898, when
thirteen musical Italians were enlisted
by the government and made the nu-

just then created by the government.
Their numbers were increa. ed from
time to time, and under the direction
of able leaders such as Carusi, Poris,
Trei and Scala it became an efficient
organization. John Philip Sousa has
been the leader since 1881, during
which time the band has become one
of the best in the world. General
