THE LION HAD HIS TURN FIRST.

And Billy's Girl at the Cape Never Wore
the Necklace of Claws.
often used to warn Billy about going
out SO far by himself and sleeping by him
self all night as often as he did. But he
didn't give cuss for lions and never
could be brought to believe that lions were
capable of attacking white man. II
wish the brutes had the pluck" he often
said, for he had promised his girl in Cape
Town necklace of lions claws and was
keen about killing lions Well, one day
when we had not bit Of meat for two
days he started on ahead. In the evening
we stopped at river and concluded that
Billy had camped for the night farther on.
In the morning we started on again, and
we had not gone 10 miles when we came
across still smoking fire. ''Hellol'
cried Bryne, "Billy's left his billy be-
hind" just then I found Billys rife,
about 30 yards away from the fire, with

felt somehow that something had gone
wrong with my old chum, and we all
scattered, with the idea of finding or fol-
lowing up his spoor. In half minute
Bryne cried out, "Ouch!" just as if he
had stepped upon snake, and when got
to where he was standing saw him glar-
ing at one of Billy's boots. man. he
whispered, there's the foot In it still!"
And, sure enough, The poor fellows foot
was there. There was blood all over the
place, and the spoor of the big lion could
easily be seen on the soft ground. We fol-
lowed up the spoor and found half of poor
Billy's head near tree. The tall green
grass all around was crushed down, show
ing that the lion had been lying there 1t
was the top Of Billy's head that was left,
and both the eyes were open and seemed
to be looking at something on the ground
30 yards away. We buried the poor rem
nants under big wild plum tree and
spent week in tracking that lion, but we
never came up with it.-"A Nobody In

A Negro Superstition.

s'While I was in Florida I was a great
deal amused at an incident witnessed,
which illustrated a superstition that ap-
peared to be prevalent among the me-
groes, !" said tourist. Zone day an old
negro who had been out rabbit hunting
came home, bringing with him an i'm
mense rattlesnake which he had killed.
He exhibited his trophy with pride to a
crowd of tourists who were standing about
in front of the hotel. The reptile measured
6 feet inches and had 10 rattles and
button. One Of the guests offered the ne
gro 81 for the rattles. The negro did not
seem to think that was enough for so
valuable trophy and said he would not
sell them for less than SO.
just at that moment another old negro
came upon the scene, and upon hearing
what was going on said to the owner Of
the snake, 'Doan yo' cut off dem rattles'
'Wharfo' won't cut off dem rattles
eff l kin get 50 for um?' demanded the
other
"'Doan' yo' know dat ef yo' cut of dem
rattles yo' go blindP When yo' cut EN-
off, de milk OBJ de snake fly up in yo' eye
an blind yo'.'
1.-THE owner of the rattlesnake pondered
for moment, and then he said: Eff any
gen leman give me 50 for dem rattles, he
can have 'em. I cut 'em off, an Of / go
blind all right. I'ze seen ernuff any
how. '"-St. Louis Globe Democrat.

Jay Cooke in 1865 told the following:
some day, when was putting govern
ment bonds upon the market, was great
ly annoyed by the clerks telling me that
there was an old man in the Office who
would do no business with them and
must see me. To get rid of him I went
out. Said he:

else but money, and I am frightened, be-

honor if these bonds are sound and right"
II replied: If they are not right, moth

Short on Rags, Long on Bottles.

Evanston can always be relied upon for
good story. Between the university and
the enforcement of the prohibition laws
something is always happening that is
unique. Even the ragpickers in the col
lege town are able to contribute to the
general entertainment if they do not real
1ze how pointed their remarks are. A few
days ago one of Evanston's philanthropic
citizens, who has a heart big enough to
take in the interests of every one, from the
highest to the lowest, asked an old rag
peddler who has been around there for
years how he found business.
WELL Evanston amt much of a place
for rags, but it's a great place for bottlesr'

adjusted his glasses and sized it up crit

She Suffered at First-Then the Clerks
Time OF Trouble Came.
Have you ever been hypnotized in a
dry goods store?" asked clever dame of q
piazza coterie. II mean have you ever been
waited on by clerks who absolutely force
you to buy what you do not want? Let
me tell you what happened to me the
other morning.
II went into store to buy new gown,
and in certain store one of these horri-
BILE hypnotic clerks fixed me with his gilt
tering eye and positively controlled my
purchase. He mesmerized me into letting
him cut off gown pattern that 1 did not
want, it did not suit me in color, design
or texture, yet there I stood spellbound
and allowed the scissors to seal my doom.
A cash boy was then called to carry the
purchase to the lining counter On the
way over there / emerged from my. hypno.
tized condition and had my revenge.
What do you think did? turned cor
ner, scurried through crowds of other vic
TINS, got out at side door and went
about my business. No one in the store
knew me, and have felt better ever
since. II the hypnotic clerk had trouble
with the proprietor about that gown, SO
much the better. 1t will teach him not to
exercise his mesmeric powers over helpless

A RAINY DAY

A dull gray sky and dull brown earth,
And the dreary, steady rain.
The shadows grow deeper within the room,
A fly creeps over the pane.
The trees stand still and lifeless and dull, /
The raindrops cling to the leaves. J.
A lonely sparrow rolled up in ball
Chirps drearily under the caves.
The sweet blush roses hang their heads.
Heavy and dripping with rain.
A butterfly trails the limp white wings
He never will use again.
The long lush grass, with foamlike fringe,
Lies tangled on the ground,
And the rains sad, deadening spell has
huShed
Each tiny insect sound.
A dull gray sky and a steady rain,
And shadows dim up piled,
And out of the darkness and sadness rings.
The laugh of a little child.
