French Politeness.

Suppose French polteness is a myth,
it is one TO be cultivated the world over.
Even the humblest peasant h ths small

If our men could only be taught some Of
it, how much more easily would run the
wheels Of LIES machinery Business Is
business, Of course. The rush and worry
of money getting dwarf the real nature,
yet at the same time stocks would actn

preceded by "a binding flash Of lightning.
The shearer was startled almost out Of
his senses by seeing the pony and its
rider suddenly collapse in heap, but in
a second the man was up, quite unhurt.
Then the shepherd, happening to glance
at the animal beneath him, found that
the lightning had served it as it had
served the pony. The sheep was stone
