Turn About Is Fair Play.

"How are the farmers making out this
year," asked New Yorker, a former
resident of Vermont, of a friend from
the old home.
Poorly, " replied the Green Mountain
man. You recollect old Bill Thon1p-
sou? Well, his case illustrates the con-
dition of affairs. 1t came around the
end of the year, and he hadn't made
enough to pay his man, so he had to sell
a yoke of oxen to get money.
when he turned the proceeds over to
the fellow, he said, Tom, times are hard,
farmings played out, and I've got to let
you 60
But said Tom, you've got more
cattle. I'll serve you and look for my
wages in cattle.

Examination BIunders.

This years university examinations
have commenced well and show that
budding masters of arts and doctors of
law are gradually getting out of the
beaten tracks of ordinary knowledge
for instance, one gentleman explained
the equinox" to be derived from 'equa,
a mare, and "nox," night, which, when
coioined, mean nightmare" Another
described "primogeniture" as a plant
which bears only one flower, and third,
who was striving for honors in history,
wrote in his essay on the character of
Henry VIII, "Cartherine Parr, who sur
vived the king, was going to be behead-
ed, but he died the day before he signed
the warrant. ."-London Telegraph.

1t was handsome solitaire, and she
evidently desired the jeweler to know
that it was her engagement ring.
Il would like to have this ring altered
to suit my finger" said the pretty girl as
she hourished the brilliant bauble before
the eyes of the jeweler.
The jeweler took the ring and smiled
He had seen it before.
81 can do that in a minute" he re-
piled. Screwing a magnifying glass in
his eye and taking a sharp pointed in
strument in his hand, he touched mi
mute spring on the inside of the ring and
made it the exact size, saying as he
placed it on her finger:
"You see, these rings are made in this
manner for the reason that they are worn
by so many different people. 1t great
convenience"
The young lady sailed out of the shop
burning with Indignation, and the reason
she did not fly was because she hadn't
the wings. What did she think? You
know, and it is only necessary to state
that she did not wear the ring.
Another girl has it now, but this time
the jeweler was not permitted to touch
the spring. The young man did it him

When You Cane,

A well bred man puts his hand
over his mouth when he yawns, but
not one we'll bred man in 10000
knows why. The reason is this:
Four or five hundred years ago
there was a superstition common in
Europe that the devil was always ly-
ing in wait to enter mans body and
take possession of him. Satan gen
orally went in by tine mouth, but
when he had waited a reasonable
time and the man did. not open his
mouth the devil made him yawn, and
while his mouth was opened jumped
down his throat So many cases of
this kind occurred that the people
learned to make the sign Of the cross
over their mouths whenever they
yawned in order to scare away the
devil
The peasantry in Italy and Spain
still adhere to this method, but most
other people have dispensed with the
cross sign and keep out the devil by
simply placing the hand before the
lips. 1t is a most remarkable sur.
vival of a practice after the signifi
canoe has perished. Exchange.

A Wit of the War.

"In our company during the civil
war;" said Captain 7. e. Barlow of Mil
waukee, "was a suffering sergeant
named Thomas and chaplain named
Chenautt, who was exceedingly untidy
in personal appearance. The sergeant
was wit and gave the chaplain no end
of trouble. One cold day the parson
had preached over an hour, and at the
close of his discourse asked any one who
felt serious to come forward.
THE sergeant went at once, DO you

Origin of Salvation Army.

The Salvation Army had it's origin
in the town of Whitby, in the rough
coal mining district of Yorkshire,
where General Booth, at that time
Rev William Booth, was doing hum
BILE mission work. England was then
in arms, expecting to jump into the
Russo Turkish war. 1t occurred to
Booth that he might attract a crowd
by issuing a declaration of war him
self, so he prepared one forthwith,
sprinkled it plentifully with hallelu
iahs and posted 1000 copies of it
about town. The device tickled the
British sense of humor, there was a
''redhot, rousing meeting, to quote
General Booth, the penitent fell
down in heaps" and the Salvation
Army sprang into life full grown

course of his talk he came to an exposi-

is reported to have said, "are merely the
element of beauty in life. Their busi-
ness is to make life graceful, and they
can't do that, you know, unless they
themselves are pretty and graceful. If
girl is not pretty, she might just as
well vanish from the face of the earth
