MANAGING a BABY.
Thought He Knew All About It-Hs
Made a Mistake

ih"uSh' nc anew All About It-He
Made Mistake.
AS the Michigan Central train was
coming to Detroit one day last week
there was baby on board that cried for
two straight hours. II was not a CRY of
teething or collie, but just the whining
squall of an infant vixen that wasn't go
ing to be suited anyhow.
The passengers on that car could
neither sleep nor read, and at last a red
faced old gentleman turned to >~e
mother and said
Madam, If You would stop trotting
the life out of that young'un it would
let up screaming"
Il guess l know more about babies
than you do snapped the mother.
We'll. all I've got to say is I've raised
eight and the whole caboodle of them
never made as much noise as that one"
he retorted.
Perhaps you would like to try your
hand on this one. If you can stop him
it's more than can do"
Give him to me, madam. and in ten
minutes he'll be as gu ct as a lamb. I've
seen worse children many a time"
He winked at the ether passengers as
he reached ont his hands for the baby.
''Tootsey-wootsey tUm, he urged. and
the infant opened one eye to look at him.
while 1t stlifcned like poker and roared
louder than ever.
''If You viii step into the next car 50
that 1t won't see You, said the obliging
traveller, Il can hush him sooner. Heu
be all right, ma'am; don't You worry"
Il won't said tie woman thank
fully, as she resigned the squaller and
disappeared into the next car.
''H-u-s-h-h, stop row. little fellow;
ride a cock horse to Bubury cross, there
was an old woman, sl-Sh-sh-lct 90 Of
my hair, You little wretch!'
The baby had tangled its fingers in
the chin whiskers OF It's Row friend, and
was pulling them out by the roots.
stop that noise, howled the passen-
gers in chorus. or give that kid back to
its mother"
He would have boon very glad to have
acceded to either IF those requests. but
the mother was cone. and the baby was
increasing its music every minute.
"WallV-walE., pet he asked in a
voice like G.. spe; "hush. my dear.
lie still and-m Her. Won't somebody
go after its mo, ~"
But nobody would stir. They all
wanted 10 see h..l manage that baby.
When the con rctJr called Detroit"
and the train 81 ed into the depot. a
wild eyed man. s.atlass and disheveled,
was tearing troE. one end of tn, train to

ton has returned home from Port Byron
where SHE was taken sick with scariatena
while visiting with Mr.. and Mrs. J. G.
Osborne and family. When any one is
taken sick away frem home, it is very
fortunate TO fall among friends TO be well
cared for
Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Dunbar are
both sick with the grippe. Mr.. Dunbar
is very sick. DR.. Morgan is in attend
ance, and has requested that friends and
nelghbors refrain from calling.
Mrs. William Parker is suffering with
numbness in her hands and arms. She
is under the care of DR. Block, who is
making use of the electric battery. She
has experienced some relief
Brewster & Donnshu shipped a car
load of rye for which they paid 75 cents
The same firm bought G w Cromptou's
crop OF corn for which they paid 80 cents
per bushel
There are quite a number complaining
OF sickness in chr neighborhood. A
Dunbar and Christopher " hitesi lie are
com planning of grip.
Mrs Joseph Dunbar is pronounced
somewhat better, but her little boy is
still very sick.
The firm of Brewster & Donnahu has
been dissolved by mutual consent, Mr..

Some mon are naturally of an adven-
turous turn. They owe the SIGHT Of new
things and enjoy Il spice OF danger.
Others seem to be ..orn stay-at-homes.
If they venture nov and then into the
world they are glad TO get back again
into their safe little corner. Here is an
amusing story of al aged couple of this
class who had gone to Chicago to see
the sights.
They stepped upon the southern end
of the drawbridGe at Dearborn street
and were admirinc a steam tug which
was just then snoring mp the dirty Chi
cago river. They did not notice n
schooner coming up behind them, and
when the warning hell of the bridge ten
der rang it might have been an old fash
toned summons to dinner, so far as they
were concerned.
A moment later the bridge was under
full swing. 4 startled look flashed from
the old mans eyes, while his wife scarce
" depressed a scream They chung to
the railing, the bridge swung slowly IN
behind the vessels and came to place,
leaving the old couple on the north side
of the river.
well, | YUM exclaimed the man.
Don't that beat cverythingT' said the
woman.
'Mandy"-and he old mans voice
was full of suppressed excitement
'''Mandy. we've just fell down seven
stories in that elevarin thing down at the
tavern, and now we've been sluns right
across this here river. Pears you can't
trust Your foot anywhere. The fust
thing YOU know we shall git onto some
thin that'll telegr; pin us right out Of
Chicago. We'd better go home"
And they did by the next train. Chi

1T is a well known fact among
the police departments that big
crooks all over the country read the
papers every day, said a police lieu
tenant to q reporter. ''They do it to
see where any big conventions or
gatherings are to be held, and then
never fail to be on hand.
"That reminds me OF the conven-
ton held here that nominated Gree
ley at Ford's opera house. / was
stationed outside to look out for the
class of gentlemen whose hands are
given to wandering into another
mans pockets. While standing in
the middle of a surging crowd OF
men 1 felt something strike me on
the foot, and not being able to see
the ground or to pick it up just then,
] put my foot on it. After the crowd
had thinned out l looked down and
saw that l was standing on a pocket

1t evidently had been dropped by
some well known crook, and he was
afraid to come 10 the headquarteTT

Whether it fell out of his pocket OF

To enforce collection of this the

ne onene,I Ills YnIise.

When we crossed the line at Port
Huron and SaInia things were ex-
citing. 1t was 2:30 ut night for one
thing Sitting opposite me, or rather
reclining in a position more suggest
i've of comfort than of grace, was a
verdant looking youth, who had for
some time been making night hide
Gus with his snores. Upon rudely
being awakened by the customs Off
Ger and requested to open his valise,
he replied, There's nothin much
in it." and closed his eyes again.
The officer gave him no very gentle
shake, saying, open your valise,
sir" The fellow raised himself up,
leaning his head on his hands, and
blinking stupidity at the officer, re-
piled again that there was nothin
much in it, " and prepared to close
his eyes once more.
'Open your valise, sir, !" exclaimed
the officer, out of all patience. By
this time most of the passengers i'll
the car were watching the fun.
Slowly the young giant unstrapped
his valise, repeating all the time that
there was nothin much in it. :"
Slowly but surely we were crossing
the ferry, where the sullen waters of

Book Publishing In the Middle Ages.
When in the Middle Ages an author
at any European university desired
to publish his thoughts, his book was
read over twice in the presence Of
the authorities, and. if approved,
might be copied and exposed for sale
"a practice in which the germs for
state licensing may be readily dis
tinguished. II was evidently neces-
sary, however, TO keep a strict watch
over the persons employed in this
business and the statutes OF the Uni
versity Of Paris show that the book
sellers were subjected 10 a very
severe discipline. They were obliged
10 keep a list Of the books they sold
and 10 exhibit their scale of charges,
and they were forbidden 10 purchase
any manuscript till 1t had been duly
approved by the authorities and pub
icly exposed to view for four days.
