There is an Office boy who caused a
great deal of trouble for the correspond
ing secretary of woman's club. The
lady felt sure sho should make somo
mistakes at first in the performance OF
the duties of her new position, but was
totally unprepared for the avalanche OF
criticism, remonstrances and fault find
ing which overwhelmed her after the
first meeting for which she sent out the
call.
Hardly anybody, it seemed, had re-
ceived notification, and twenty-five or
thirty of the $50 members had not even
heard there was to be a meeting. The
corresponding secretary interviewed her
husbands Office boy, to whom had been
given the list of members, the circulars
and other requisite stationery, with or
ders to address the envelopes and mail
them as promptly as possible.
"Did you fold the circulars and put
them in the envelope?"
"Yes'm."
"And direct the envelopes and stamp
them and mail themY
"Yes'm."
"Did you do it promptly"
"Yes'm."
"Then how do you suppose so many

One of the most remarkable duels ever
fought, perhaps, took place in 1903 be-
tween two Frenchmen. OF course the
quarrel arose about a lady--a certain
Mile. Tirevet-who, it appears, was un-
able to decide on which of the two she
preferred. She finally found way out
of the difficulty by promising to marry
whichever of them worsted tho other.
They thought over the matter in calm
and judicial spirit for a month, and at
the end decided to fight duel in the
air. Accordingly two balloons were
made exactly alike, and upon the ap-
pointed day each scared aloft, accom-
panied by his second.
They were each armed with blum
derbuss, the agreement being that they
were to fire, not at each other, but at
the balloons. They arose to the height
Of half a mile, and then the preconcert-
ed signal was given. One fired and
missed; the other followed suit with
more disastrous effect. He hit his OPP
ponent's balloon, which instantly cell
lapsed, with the result that the occu-
pants of the car were dashed to the
earth with frightful rapidity and i'm
stantly killed.-St Louis Republic.

From far western regions comes the
tale of man who was killed by dead
snake. This story is so thrilling that it
is best not to mention the name of the
place where the incident occurred.
Snake bites from live snakes are bad
enough, but when it comes to bites from
dead ones, the place where such reptiles
live, or once lived, is good country to
avoid. 1t might be bad for the growth
of the town if revealed its location.
This farmer went out one morning to
chop wood. Perceiving a snake near
his wood pile he chopped it into little
bits and threw all the pieces broadcast,
as a warning to other snakes not to ven
ture too near his wood pile.
As he picked up the portion contain
ing the mouth of the snake, it closed
upon his finger, but he thought nothing
further about the matter. Two weeks
later, however, the finger began to
swell and within a couple of hours he
died. Thus we see that in these districts
dead snakes are as dangerous as live
ones.-New York World.

Suspension bridges which were built
in the time of the Han dynasty (2O2 b.
G. to 220 A. d. are still standing, strik-
ing examples of oriental engineering
skill. According to historical and geo.
graphical writer's of China it was Shang
Lieng, Kaen Tsus chief of command,
who undertook TO construct the first
public roads in tho Flowery Empire. At
that time it was almost impossible for
the province of Shense to communicate
with the capital. Lieng took an army
of 10000 workmen and cut great gorges
through the mountains, filling up the
canyons and valleys with the debris
from his excavations. At places where
deep gorges were traversed by large
and rapidly flowing streams he actually
carried out his plan of throwing suspen-
sion bridges. stretching from one slope
to the other.
These crossings, appropriately styled
.'fiying bridges" by early Chinese writ
ers, are high and dangerous looking in
the extreme. AT the present day bridge
may still be seen in the Shense which is
400 feet long and is stretched over a
chasrn more than 1000 feet deep. How
those early engineers erected such a
structure with the tools and appliances
at their command is a mystery which
will probably never be explained

She Is Rather shrewd.

Milton county, Ga, has lady who is
shrewd trader. Not long ago the
merchants of Roswell went wild in their
efforts to control the chicken trade. One
merchant raised the price of hens to
thirty-five cents. The Milton county
lady went down and purchased about
twenty dollars worth of goods. The
merchant, thinking he would get the
cash, put the prices low. When the lady
had finished the trading she turned to
the merchant and said, 'Well, UNDER
stand you are giving thirty-five cents
apiece for hens, and will send q suf-
ficient number next week to pay for this
bill of goods" The merchant was sold,
but he just grinned and endured it.
And now, when he goes to sell bill of
goods, he inquiries whether it will be
paid in money or hens at thirty-five
cents each.-Philadelphia Ledger.

The adobe houses of Arizona and New
Mexico are not built from ignorance,
but from a regard to comfort. They
are, for that climate, the warmest in
winter and in summer the coolest that
can be constructed. The adobe is only
mud made of the loamy clay; the bricks
are about sixteen inches long by nine or
ten In width and eight in thickness
They are sun dried, and after the house
ID begun and the walls are reared to a
height Of two or three feet they are left
for q week in order to dry, the process
Of building and waiting continuing till
the house is constructed.
Then the walls are plastered within,
the roof put on, and the house left for
two or three weeks before the occupants
move in. The small cost and little
trouble with which an adobe house can
be built, together with its superior COM
fort, render it the favorite structure in
tropical North America, and long time
win elapse before it is superseded either
by wood. brick or stone. ne.-Interview in

One OF the leading residents at Raincy,
ln the department of Seine-et-O -Oise, was
the Widow Tardiveau, wealthy, fat, fair
and forty. Among her special favorites
was young Raoul Gaullin. He was not

profitable TO allow her to suppose that he

7ess. Raoul fell in love with Rosalie
5ertol, and an engagement and be-
trothal soon took place. The widow at
first was furious, but by degrees she
grew more calm and then professed her
self heartbroken. She soon fell into a
decline and died of rapid consumption
after brief illness.
On her deathbed Nine. Tardiveau

two amorous young people. and in her

gift of money, accompanied by pint of
rare old Malaga, with yellow seal.
The bottle was not to be opened until
the wedding day, when it was to be

parted.

the end of the supper, the wine was un-

contents. In second they had fallen

too widely diversified interests TO give
attention to the details of newspaper
work or technical journalistic work.

ed from month to month, and instead of

after the ordinary approved club style,
they take the names and offices of edito-

Many articles said to be silver plated
are really nickel plated. Nickel plating
has many advantages over silver plat
ing. 1t does not so readily yield to the
action of acids, it looks as well as silver
and does not become black so quickly
from the gases in the atmosphere; be-
sides that, it is much easier and more
quickly done, and if people do not know
the difference, where is the harm? They
get the ''silver plating" and much
cheaper than would be the case were
genuine silver used, and the result is
generally more satisfactory st. Louis

Breaking Up the Drummer's Business.
An innovation which Is spreading
alarm among travelling men is the ease
with which business men may secure
passes from railroads. A business man
goes to railway manager and announces
that he is thinking of visiting the eastern
market. Although nothing may be said
about it the railway magnate takes it
for granted that his caller will order his
goods shipped over the line granting the
pass. Pasteboards are accordingly is
sued. not only for the merchant, but for
his entire family and one or two cousins
and aunts thrown in. The practice has
grown to such an extent that railway
men tell me it is becoming a serious
question for the management to decide
where to draw the line.
The merchant goes east and makes his
selection Of goods instead of patroniz-
ing the man who is on the road. The
railways have thus stepped in and inter-
fered to large extent with the business
Of the commercial traveller. AS the
passes are issued as often as asked for,
the larger buyers are getting farther
and farther away from the drummer.
For this reason younger and less ex-
perienced men are sent out at q compar-
atively small expense to the house. in
