"Now You git right away from here" :"

he came in with "a hungry look on his

may have a billygoat, or a shotgun, or

Here, take a handful of prunes and go off
somewhere and enjoy yourself and keep
away from here, and the grocery man
went on sorting potatoes and watching
the haggard face of the boy. "What
ails you anyway" he added as the boy
refused the prunes and seemed to be
sick at the stomach.

HIS PA GOES HUNTING.


( ''What has your Pa got his jaw tied

of the bad boy as the boy came to bring

to work on the street "You haven't

ought to have seen him when the gun

boy as he set the butter plate on the

"Well, tell us about it. What had the

grocery man as he winked at a servant

her head after cents worth of yeast.

see, since Pa quit drinking he is a little
nervous, and the doctor said he ought to
go out somewhere and get bizness off his

and get strength, and Pa said shooting
ducks was just in his hand, and for me

he was only cunning.
"First l scared him nearly to death by
firing off the gun behind him as we were
going along the bank and blowing off 6
piece of his coattail. l knew it wouldn't

me to lay down that gun, and he picked

cure Pay for Their Heads.
Bounty grabbers are ever existent
and ever will be, guess, ' said Grismer
Abbott, a travelling man, to a Globe
Democrat reporter. people will be
crooked and practice deception in
everything, so that nothing can be
done now without first laying plans to
guard against deception. Look at the
bounties offered for the heads of GER
tain pests in the different parts of the
world. In Russia a ruble is paid by
the government for the head of every
wolf killed. In India certain sum is
paid for the bodies of the dead cobras.
In Australia shilling is given, in GER
tain districts, for the head of rabbits.
In New York, Chicago and other big
cities of the world, few pennies are
paid for the heads of sparrows, and SO
on the world over. In every one of
these cases certain persons have been
caught defrauding the government.
Instead of going out and endeavoring
to rid the country of the pests and so
making a living, these brilliant
schemers have turned into raising the
pests and selling their heads, finding
it more profitable to do so. In my ter
ritOry-sOuthcast OhiO-crOws be-
came so numerous that they destroyed
most of the grain. A bounty of ten
cents was offer ed for their heads and a
number ofpeople started into the crow
killing business. One deceptive genius
down there saw quicker way to make
money This individual started an in
dustrial enterprise that threatened for
awhile to revolutionize the crow busi-
ness and make him wealthy. His plan
was to secure an incubator and raise
crows by that system. Some one dis
covered the scheme and the bounty
was abolished entirely"

a series of cdifccs called palaces Of
death These palais de la mort or as
they are also styled, palais mortuaires,
are intended for the reception OF dead
bodies until the arrangements for in
torment have been fully completed.
The object of the mcmbers of the or
panizing committee Of the death
palaces is twofold. In the first place,
they desire to prevent hasty or prema-
ture buriuls, as il often happens in
France that people are put into the
grave alive; secondly, by the new
method the danger of contagion would
be minimized.
Nothing is said about attaching cleo
trio wires TO the waists of dead per
sons temporarily deposited in these
mortuaries, as is done in some German
cities, notably Munich, the purpose Of
this arrangement being TO arouse the
attendant doctor should the supposed
departed be only in trance. In Paris
the bodies in the event of doubt as to
death, would be kept until the first
trace Of decomposition appeared

with FIoIa one third. BY this it may be
seen that the Mist takes first prize and the
Florence. Red Imp and Vixen are tie for
