It would be difficult to imagine any
thing funnier than Mr.. George w. Peck's
book, THE Bad Boy and His Pa" but q
funnier creation does exist in Mr.. Pid-

because word painting, no matter how

the Bad Boys tricks, but you roar when
you see the same boy, in flesh and

All the children of the imperial fam
lily have, been baptised in water from the
Jordan, according to a custom long es-
tablished in the royal house of Prussia.
The empress has of late received innu-
merable requests to stand as sponsor to
the children of all classes of people in all
parts of Germany, SO many In fact that
she has found it impossible to accede to
even tithe of the applications. She
has therefore made it rule to act as
godmother only when one or other of the
parents is personally known to her.
The empress always prepares some
kind of celebration for the birthdays of
her children. One of these anniversaries
came along at the time of the Bismarck
episode. The kaiser, who was playing
with the chis3'en at the little family
feast, was astonished to hear from the
eldest of his offspring this comment on
the event which had just astonished the.
world: Father" piped out the crown
prince, ''they say that you will now tell
the people what to do all by yourself
You will like that better, won't you, f..
ther" The conversation was not pro
longed.-Arthur Warren in Ladies

A Wooden Leg and a Dog.

A wooden leg and q dognearly changed
the course of European history. In 1865,
Just prior to the war between Prussia
and Denmark, Bismarck was staying at
Biarritz. One morning, accompanied
by huge dog, he was walking along a
road which runs along cliff, protected
by low wall, when he met an old
French naval captain with q wooden
leg, but powerfully built, and of quick
temper. The dog became unduly atten-
tive to the captains leg, and the French
man struck at the animal with the butt
Of his fishing rod. Bismarck used a
round German oath, and the sailor fol-
lowed with nautical emphasis. From
words the two came to blows, and in a
few minutes Bismarck found that, strong
as he was, the Frenchman was lifting
him bodily upon the top of the sea wall.
Another moment and he would have
been in the sea below, and the whole
course of history would have been
changed. At the critical moment came
help-by the irony Of fate-in the shape
of an equerry of Napoleon, who rescued
the German from his terrible opponent.
If that equerry could only have known
for what he had saved him!-San Fran
cisco Argonaut.

Flushing Fresh Water Pipes.

A vegetable growth in the water mains
at st. Paul has been the cause of some
trouble. The first case was discovered
by the superintendent in one of two
service pipes in single trench supply
ing double house. "A complaint was
made of bad water, which flushing failed
to improve. One of the pipes delivered
pure water, and one supplied muddy
liquid that was Of no use. These facts led
to the conclusion that one of the services
was foul, and the remedy applied on this
su-position proved effective. The boiler
of portable engine was connected witt,

which the 1saddy water came and a
steam pressure of 10 pounds forced
against the 85 pounds water pressure for

out of the pipe.
Since that time the pipe has always
delivered clear water, and 10 similar
cases have been successfully treated in
the same manner. Great care has to be
taken that there are no leaks in the serv-
ice pipes and that none Of the fittings
are open during the steaming process

Lost In a Small Town,

In his delightful record of "An EN-
bassy of Provence" Mr.. Thomas A. jan
vier relates how he was lost in the mazy
streets of the little town of Vers. The
place was strange to him. His pony, be-
ing tormented by flies, ran away with
the carriage or buggy. But "the po-
nette" did not run too madly to respond
to the rein, so Mr.. Janvier turned this,
that and the other corner and flew past
startled old women. children, dogs and
hens. till he did not know his way back
to the main road. He says:
"A brave old man rescued u.s. While
| held the ponette hard he seized her
bride, and when he had calmed her by
brushing away the tormenting flies and
| had explained that we were lost and
had begged him to guide us to the high
way he smiled gently and in moment
led us out from that entangling maze.
''The distance to the highway proved to
be less than twoscore yards, but then he
knew what turns to take in that marvel
ously crooked town.
''In my gratitude offered the old man
money. He refused to accept it. lean
not take monsieur's silver he said po-
litely. Already am more than paid.
In all the 70 years of my life here in Vers
monsieur is the very first who has been
lost in my little town. 1t is most inter-
esting. 1t is enough
SIN this position he was firm. thanked
him again warmly, and we drove away.
When we had gone short distance,
looked back. He was standing in the
middle of the road gazing after us His
face was wreathed in smiles."

Taking Down q Drummer.

"a IeW years ago number OF us were
stopping at the Henry House In Abilene,
Kan. Among the guests was O plug
hat-sllk-umbrella clothing drummer
from Boston. He had no desire to make
up or affiliate with the "boys," but
was o crowd all to himself, SO we con-
ciuded to initiate him. About six miles
west of Abilene was o water station
called Sand Springs" AS soon as Mr..
a''Boston' was within earshot. one man
said, "Well, got in one nice order yes
terday from Jones at Sand Springs"

his boots and Shoes" "And l." said an
other, "sold him splendid order Of no.

wish clothing man would come along"
Mr.. Boston" at once pricked up his
ears, went into the ticket Office and asked
the agent, Where is Sand Springer
The agent told him, "The first station
west" He purchased ticket and had
his seven big trunks checked to "Sand
Springs"
When the train arrived there, the nag
gageman rolled his trunks out on the
prairie. Mr.. B. inquired Of tho burly
Irishman who ran the pump engine,
sWhere's the town, sir?" BE jabers,
it's meself and this water tank is all
there ituv it," "Why," said B., sis there
not Mr.. Jones starting large store
here?" "Divil the Bit" said Pat. It
soon dawned upon the Bostonian that he
had been the victim of cruel joker.
He had to skirmish around and paid
farmer So to haul his baggage back to
Abilene. When he returned, one OF the
boys gave him the 'grand hailing sign"
and told him why it was done. He "set
em up" in fine style and said he would
ever after be ready to extend the hand
of fellowship to worthy brother when
ever he should find him.-Cor. st. Louis

roa0 station. Wnen he cloSed the 1ront
door behind him and went down the
steps toward the gate, he saw in the
darkness the figure of woman who
seemed to have been lettering there and
who now hurried away
AS he came out into the street, some
thing of her evident desire not to be
seen convinced him that the retreating
figure was that Of his wife. He followed
quickly, and as soon as she noticed this
she broke into run. ~
Now, Tom realized that it was risky
thing to run after and overtake flying
woman, especially if she turned out to
be tho person of whom he was in search.
But Tom was desperate, and he took the
risk. aH
Seeing that she could not get away,
she stopped at lamppost, leaning
against it, and as he came up to her he
heard the shuddering cry:
"Oh, Toni"
"Lillian," he said hoarsely, grasping
her wrist, "what is the meaning of thisP
Have you gone crazy?"
She leaned against the lamppost and
wept. s,s
Come" he said briefly, and without
resistance she accompanied him in si-
lence, broken only by her sobs, back to
the house.
The girl let them in and at once sur
missed by the grief of her mistress that
the friend who was i'll had died.
Tom led his wife into their sitting room,
and there she sank into chair, covering
her face with her hands. She saw by
his stern demeanor that he suspected her
guilt.
He closed the door, then standing be-
fore her said sternly:
LILLIAN, want an explanation"
"Oh, Tom, Tom," she said piteously.
''Don't look at me like that or shall
never be able to tell you the truth"
'fYou must tell me the truth, no mat
ter how / look"
"That check, that check, she moaned.
"Well, what about it? What has the
check to do with your going away?'
"The check, she murmured, sis sgone."
"Who has it? Did you cash it, and
haYe you lost the money!"
VI have lost the money!" she said,
"but did not cash the check. 1t was
burned"
"Burnedi Who burned it?"
"Oh, I did it by accident. was dry
ing the ink before the fire, and somehow
it caught, and I had not presence Of
mind enough to save it."
'But what has all that to do with your
running awayY'
She looked up at him in surprise.
"It has everything to do with it," she
said. II could not face you after losing
5000"
Good gracious, Lillian" he cried, a
light breaking in upon him. "You sure
ly don't imagine you have lost anything
by the burning of the check?"
"Was it not for $200?" she asked in
surprise.
Toms overstrained feelings gave way.
He sat down on the chair and laughed.
Lillian" he said at last, sis that all?"
"Allr' she cried, astonished at his be-
havior. SIS that not enough when we
have so little money!"
my dear girl" he said, rising and
kissing her, "the check is but piece of
paper. 1t is not like bank note. The
burning of check is nothing. 1t only
puts me to the trouble of writing an
other. Ignorance may be bliss, but it
has given me very bad haitian hour"
