There can be ne doubt that the
lowering of the American nag mas
produced a very unfavorable I'M
preston even among those who,
like the World, were resolutely
opposed to the scheme for taking
into the sisterhood of states, either
forcibly or otherwise, this far-away
habitation of mongrel Japs, Chinese
and kanakas. No one who mas
fought for that flag or who would
now fight for it likes to see IL
lowered.

A MALE SHOPPER.
Not Familiar with the Mysteries of Dry
Goods Store.

They were riding up in the elevator
of one of our big dry goods stores
the man, his wife and small boy who
was going to get off at the second floor
instead of the third, says the Detroit
Free Press.
"One would think, young fellow"
said the man, pompously, that you
had never been in an elevator before.
"No more | was, pa" sa 1 I'll small
boy, and he was going me-
thing more, but his moth eLzed his
hand and he stopped short.
The party got out at the 1hird floor
and the man directed the movements
of his wife and boy, and seemed to
have the whole universal plan at his
finger ends.
When they had finished shopping all
stepped into the elevator to go down,
and the wife said she thought she
would sit, but the man told her 70
stand up and not joggle about so
much. At the second floor he seized
the boy, said, "Look where you're 60
ing, sir" and got off. His wife went
on to the ground floor, for which they
had started. and sat down in the store
to await developments.
The man came down the stairs
pretty soon and pretended to be show
ing the store to the boy.
"You made mistake, Hiram," said
his wife timidly, you oughtn't have
got off on that floor"
Don't worry about me-" snapped
the man, "I'm old enough to take care
of myself" and he stalked ahead with
determination to get there if he
walked straight down cellar.
This way" said clerk as he touch
ed the man on the shoulder.
"Take your hand off, young man; I
know which way I'm going" and he
made another attempt.
"All right" said the clerk, "if you
go through that plate-glass mirror it
will cost you more than if you leave
by the regular door,"
Then the man saw his family were
waiting for him and he frowned at
them GROSSLY and followed them into
the street. 1t was severe case of
know-it-all.

Don't Stop Eating.

A party of engineers sat out in the
light of the campfire on the leeward
side of hill in Dakota exchanging
"reminiscences.
"Let me tell you of an enjoyable sup
est member of the group, whose En-
glish had not yet been corrupted by
the vernacular of the West.
at was out in Wyoming" he began,
"and was on my way to join an en-
gineering party at Boise City. l had
taken the stage and travelled about
forty miles, when we drew up at one
of these western mushroom towns,
where we waited an hour and half
for supper.
"Somky Greek settlement. like many
Wyoming towns" he went GA by way
of explanation, "is famous for some
single characteristic. Til articular
town is notorious for lynching
parties, even in the land of neck tie
socials. 1t is about forty miles from
a railroad, but occasionally an eastern
bound traveller stops over for an hour
or two on his way to neighboring
mining town. 1t is in close proximity
to some of the largest ranches in the
country, and is, of course, a great
rendezvous for cow punchers, miners
and the attendant retinue of fakirs,
road agents, faro tricksters and repre-
sentatives of nearly every calling who
proceed to collect the living which the
world owes them in the easiest way.
There are several hotels. l stopped
over at the Cross Roads House. 1
went in and took a seat at the long ta-
BILE.
Several glanced up, giving me a
quick scrutinizing glance as if to size
me up, then paid no more attention to
me. While apparently engaged in
consuming the bacon, corn bread,
sorghum and dried apples, had an
opportunity to take in my surround
ings. At one end of the table sat a
gruff, sullen looking fellow who glared
now and then at an inoffensive man
seated across the table from him.
From the fragments of conversation of
those nearest me I learned that the
two had had some disag eeement over
a game few hours before, and there
were possibly old scores to settle.
Some one at my left remarked: @That
air nighthawk for once got the best
Nv the day wrangler."
"The sullen looking fellow, evident
ly the day wrangler, looking across at
the nighthawk, said gruffiy, "Pass me
the m'lassesr
"The other looked up at him coolly,
muttered something about "a feller
bein' little more perlite,' and showed
the pitcher across the table. The
pitcher upset and the brown liquid
oozed over the table. The day wran-
gler evidently took this as an inten-
tional insult. Without saying word,
and with scarcely a moments hesita-
ton he took out his revolver and shot
the man dead"
at must ha' broken up that air sup
per-" remarked one of the group, shift
ing his cud of tobacco to the starboard
side of his mouth.
"Indeed, it didn't,a was the answer.
The other bearders looked up, but
not word was said, and the meal
went on as if nothing had happened.

A SURPRISE IN CANADA.
Col Child Relates His Experiences OF Life
In the Dominion.

A story by Col. Child will illustrate
the ex-Minister's versatility. II was
over in Canada several years ago. he
said, %and for good whisky and BRAN
dy at low price want to say that
the Dominion takes the prize. l was
in Windsor with party of Missourians
one day, and with one of them strolled
about looking at the town. Becoming
somewhat worn, we began to cast
about for a place whereat to buy some
brandy. We came upon it very soon.
l told the man in charge to fix up two
good pale Hennessey punches. In my
travels I have tasted the decoctions of
all lands, but l am sure a better mix
ture never tickled the palate of man
than the pale Hennessy punch of
Windsor make. I tossed a half-doIlar
out in payment, and with last smack
OF my lips started to go, when the bar
man called me back.
"Don't forget your change" he said,
and with that he handed 40 cents to
me.
whats thisp' I asked. What is
the price of those punehes?'
".Five cents.each, responded the man
behind the bar.
"t turned squarely round again and
bringing my two fists down hard on
the counter, called in stentorian
tones:
@.Fil1 'em up againp
@'When we got on the street again
we met eighteen of our Missouri
friends. stopped them.
@tCome in here and do as I do
said.
sThe party followed me. into the
place from which had just emerged
with my friend.
a'Give me brandy punch, I said.
"Each of the nineteen men who
were with me made the same request.
in five minutes the seductive mixtures
were tossed off and my guests were
wondering at my extravaganza. I
threw dollar on the bar, at which
the man behind nodded his thanks.
My friends stared at me and one of
them asked what it all meant.
'Hennessy brandy punches sell at 5
cents apiece in Windsor, said with
an air of triumph. For an instant
there was pot sound. Then my nine
teen friends hit the bar with their fists
and in tones that could be heard across
the Detroit River they shouted:
"'Fi1 'em up again!" City
Times.

The Old Stone Doughnut Jar.

My thoughts will sometimes wander back
To things loved in boyhood's days
The pond beside the railroad track
Whereon longing used to gaze,
Because forbidden there to swim.
But brighter far the memories are
OF what held goodness to its rim
My mothers old stone doughnut jar!
There's many a time and many place
My thoughts go back to lovingly,
And many pretty girlish face
Is treasured in my meIrIory;
Yet nothing takes me back 50 soon,
Or leads into the past so far,
Whether at morning, night, or noon,
As thoughts of that stone doughnut Jar.
1t stood upon lower shelf,
Was covered with blue stone plate,
And could always help myself,
Nor need to pause to hesitate"
What joy of joysl what untold bliss
