The way OF tho World.

Funny world we live in. A man who
has six horses standing idle in stable
walked two miles out in the country on
little matter of business day or two
ago, while another man who had no
horses and very little money hired a
team to go the same distance. This was
an actual occurrence this week, and
shows the perversity of human nature.
He who has the facilities for driving
prefers to walk, while he who could
much better prefer to walk and has no
team, goes and hires one. Men are
crazy to own team, and it soon be-
comes bore to give the horse necessary
exercise. 1t has always been thus, and
we presume always will be.-West-
chester Record.

A Man of Adventure,

John Switzler, who now lives within
one mile of Pendleton, thirty-six years
ago saved the lives of thirty persons at
the Cascades, on the north side of the
Columbia river, at a place at that time
called the Upper Cascades. John is now
old and well wearied with years. But
then he was young man and after
making thirty persons safe he ran the
gantlet for a mile with other parties,
some Of whom were wounded, while
others were killed by the Yakima and
Klikitat Indians. Yet he arrived at the
fort safe and sound and in time to care
for the wounded in the fort, where
twelve soldiers were imprisoned three
days and nights.-East Oregonian.

Do You Know Your Letters,


Any man who can read would proba-
bly, resent such an imputation Of igno-
rance as this question conveys, ssDo
you know your lettersS is what is asked
the little tot when he or she first sets
foot in school. But grown up men and
women may be pardoned for believing
they are speaking the truth when they
answer eyes, to the question. The
chances are, however, that they don't
know their letters. Why has "a" its
present shape? Stumped the first timei
Every American ought to know that.
A takes its shape from picture Of an
eagle. B was once the picture of an
Egyptian bird. D represented mans
hand. F was the horned viper. The
two upper strokes are the remains Of the
horns and the perpendicular line the up
right body of the viper. q was once the
semblance of sieve.
We got our letters from the Phnnician
alphabet, which in turn came from the
picture writing Of Egypt.
So don't be so sure Of your knowledge
next time you are asked simple ques-
tion.-Detroit Free Press.

An Elephxntine Nurse.

Miss G. F. Gordon Cumming, in her
book on Ceylon, gives few lines to a
pet elephant, who seems to have been a
creature of much amiability and intelli-
gence. He had been captured young,
and was known as Kurunegalla Jack.
He used to go the hospital rounds with
his master, a medical officer, who had
taught him to be generally useful, and
even to administer pills. A Malay soldier
one day dropped his pill, whereupon
Jack picked it up and dropped it into
the mans open mouth, with puff that
blew it safely down.

His Election Cost Him Four Gents.

Mr.. n. R. Williams may be compli.
mented upon the economy he exercised
in seeking reelection to the Middlesex
county council, his expenses being set
down at twopence. This fairly beats
the "record." Mr. Deputy Bedford's
election expenses were said to be but
ninepence on one occasion, but he must
pale his Intellectual fires before the su-
perior financial prowess of Mr.. Williams.

There was once a wise old man named
Charles Darwin who said: IF you are
warm, take something off. If you are

eat. If you are thirsty, drink. Always
consult your inclinations." This, it
seems, in all things might be a brief but

CHICAGO, Nov. ia.-Another Eskimo girl
baby was born at jackson park n few days
ago. The first one, Columbia. welcomed
the new conner with blink of superiority,
to say that there could be but ono first.
and that honor was safe In her possession.
Columbia's parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Simon
Mnnska, are good Christians of the Mo-
ravian faith. while the last arrival comes
from beathen ancestry that has neither
religion nor family name. The fathers
name is Kufa aud the mothers Kotukituk.
which translated means Big Adams Ap-
pie. out of this wealth Of etymology aud
significance they have evolved for the
helpless child and saddled upon her the
name of kotuktookn, which means the
Sufferer. She will not be christened 90,
however, and no minister will have to pro-
nounce the name. for the parents are
from the far north of Labrador and are
the most absolute of heathens.

he must live he begged the doctors to
Let him die. He would make no explana-
