A Fanny world.

This is a funny world says an ex-
change. A man who steals q hog to
keep his family from starving is sent
to the penitentiary every time, but an
able bodied dead beat can buy a car
load Of goods from his local merchant
promising but never intending 10
pay for them-and there is no chance
in the world Of bringing him to justice.
A man who is able to pay and won't
pay is as much OF a thief as the man
who steals the hog, end we believe he
should be as severely punished.

Before the County Commissioners
appoint a Sheep Inspector, they
should examine the law closely and
ascertain whether the owners Of sheep
or the county will be liable for his
fees and salary at the rate of 50 per

ing the owner of the sheep inspected
liable for the fees and salary of the

Mr. Asq uith's Double.

Here is q good story of Mr.. Asquith,
who lived recently at Hampstead.
A photographer in St. Johns Wood was
visited one day by q man bearing strik-
ing resemblance to the home secretary
and he took his portrait. The photogra-
pher, who prided himself on knowing Mr..
Asquith by sight, jumped to the conclu-
sion that he had the home secretary as a
sitter, and when he took the picture he
limited that he should be glad of the right
to sell it if his distinguished visitor would
make terms.
The man seemed astonished, but ulti-
mately said that he would take 910 for all
rights in the artistic work. The photog-
rapher was somewhat surprised that Sc
important parsonage should ask money
but said that if the sitter would allow him
he would send $40 by post, and then the
man left. A few days after St. Johns
Wood was placarded with portraits label
ed 'sThe Home Secretary" and Mr.. As
quith received check for so, which
was mystery to him. What were the
feelings of the photographer, who soon
found out his mistake, may be better i'm
bgined than Observation-Disclosures Core

(From the Lovers Year Book of Poetry,
Roberts Brothers, publishers.)
Her hair was golden brown,-.
~ Inc photograph makes it black;
You may take the portrait out If you
will;
You'll find lock at the back.
Her eyes were living blue,
And through their splendor rare
You could gaze right into the soul, and
see
The feelings that sported thee.
Why did we part9 God knows.
1t may be that she and
Love still with as true and tender love
AS we swore in the days gone by.
To see mighty rift
In mountain, who would think
1t was rent in twain by tiny rlll
That had trickled in at a chink?
Needs but an angry thought,
Or a light word lightly spoken
And mountain of love may be rent in
twain,
And the chain OF life be broken.

A Thrifty People.

Richard Tangye, the great engineer, in
his autobiography gives some curious ex-
amples of the economy of the Cornish
miners. Compared with these thrifty folk,
Scotch peasants and farmers of New Eng
land are extravagant. His grandfather
was miner, and when once asked what
his daily work was he replied:
''Ten hours at the engine and eight at
digging. The rest of the day have to
waste"
Tangye states that he once saw this
same old man fall into fury Of rage be.
cause boy whom he had hired threw
away match after lighting candle
with it.
"D'ye waste my property, eloonp Then
ye will never be worth saxpence of yer

pie for more than 40 years. The tears
would come to her eyes whenever she talk
