How many people know how to send
stamp in a letter? Nine people out of ten
stick 1t so carefully down that the recipi-
emit always loses his temper, and general
ly the stamp In the effort to release 1t. 1t
is really more exasperating than when the
sender forsets altogether the stamp he
should have inclosed, for then, at least,
1t Is not wasted. Even the most extrava-
CANT of US seldom have souls above saw
ing stamp, for 1t is, strangely, far dear
er to US than the two cents IL represents
The tenth person sends 1T loose, which is
well enough, providing 1t does not slip out
unseen, and vanish. az these totally de-
PRAYED small things have a trick of doing
The proper way is very simple one. Cut
with a sharp penknife two parallel Sits
at the top of your letter, and slip in your
stamps, which will thus travel as safely
as IL in a special paper case. Perhaps
you have been in country village where
money orders and postal notes are I'M
known, and, for some reason, it becomes
necessary to send change in a letter Cut
a piece of light cardboard the size of the
envelope, and from this cut circular pieces
the size of your coins. Insert the coins
and paste slip of paper across one or
both sides.

SHE JOINED THE CHASE.
Dragged Along by Her bulldog i'm His
Pursuit of a Cat.

From the New York Herald.
/ am not an admiref OF that product of
canine civilization the toy dog, but when
1t comes to selecting a companion for a
promenade.I am prepared to maintain that
for woman the toy dog is much prefera-
BILE to the bulldog. That conclusion was
arrived at after witnessing something that
occurred in 9th avenue the other day.
spinster of the emancipated woman
type was leading bulldog by chain and
evidently enjoying the terror which its
presence inspired among her weaker sis
tiers, who wereotil bound in the chains
of conventionalism. The bulldog, with the
listless good nature peculiar to it's species,
paid no attention to anybody or anything
until a predatory cat essayed to cross the
street few feet in front of IL. If there is
one thing more than another that bull
dog is death on it is a cat.
The situation was instantly reversed.
The bulldog was leading the emancipated
woman mad chase across the avenue
in pursuit of the feline, that stood not
moment on the order of its going. The
street was crowded with vehicles, and 1t
was only because that kindly providence
which tempers the wind to the shorn lamb
and the fall to the drunken man happened
just then to be taking a keen interest in
the fate of that woman of advanced views
the recording angel must have had a par
tic ularly busy two minutes taking steno-
graphic notes of the oaths that were utter
ed by eXcitable Jehus as they threw their
horses on their launches.
On the opposite side of the street the cat
sped down a flight of steps leading to an
areaway and hoped onto a window sill,
where 1t was beyond the reach of it's less
agile foe.
The woman, either because she wouldn't
or couldn't let go the chain, was logged
down the same steps, narrowly escaping a
fall and for five minutes she stood there
Juggling vainly at the chain while the dog
strained and leaped and barked in fruitless
efforts to get within biting distance of puss.
The crowd that gathered around enjoyed
the woman's discontinue Not a man Of
fered to assist her.
1T just serves her right" remarked a
pretty girl to her companion. she ought
to know better than to go around with such
horrd brute"
All the women present We're evidently of
the same opinion. A policeman attracted
by the crowd, finally came to her rescue,
and by main strength pulled the dog up the
steps, while the terrified cat made tracks
for parts unknown. And the emancipated
woman hadn't sufficient presence of mind
left to resent the observation of the repre-
sentative of the law that women amt got
no right to go foolin around with bull
dog, anyhow"

HE SAW THE JOKE.
The Remarkable QuicIzness of an
English Traveller.

English Traveller.
From the Boston Budget.
Lord Fitznoodle, tho second cousin of
Lord Dundreary, had, with his valet, the
estimable James Yellowplush, come to
America and gone west I'm the hope of bag
ging a few grizzly bears and buffaloes.
America and the Americans seemed to the
noble lord "beastly vulgar doncher know"
and this opinion he frankly told those
Americans whom he favored with his lord
ly society. Nevertheless, fate compelled
him to accept as a travelling companion q
rampant American. They were travelling
on horseback across the prairies and one
day after a vain search for the settlement
in which they We're to spend the night, they
came to a cross road which boosted a char
coal blacksmiths hut and a sign post. The
sign read: 'Mugg's Corner, four miles on
the right-hand road. If you can't read ask
the blacksmith"
Thereat the American laughed long and
loud, but the Englshman remained silent
II say, me good fellow" he expostulated,
II cawn't see the joke, doncher know.
What is it?"
IF You don't see it, replied the Ameri-
can, II shan't tell you. But tell you what
/ will do. If you see it before we leave the
inn tomorrow I'll pay the bills"
All through the rest of the day and even
ing the Englishman remained silent. He
was working the brain evolved by five
centuries of culture. When the American
retired to his straw mattress, there Lad as
vet dawned no CLEAN of intelligence on the
Embellishments face. But in the middle of
the night the former was awakened by
loud knock on his door, accompanied by a
hearty laugh. II say, me good man." came

Something About Senator-Elect Marion
Butler of North Carolina.
He is Prominent In the Peoples Party
and Favored Fusion in the
Late Election.

March 4, 1895. Marion Butler will take
the seat in the United States Senate which
will have been occupied by Senator Matt
Ransom twenty-four years, unless death or
some unforeseen catastrophe intervenes to
prevent it. He was born in Sampson coun-
ty, N. c., May 20, 1868. His great grand
father, James Butler, settled in Sampson
county in 1160, and was a soldier in the
revolutionary war. One hundred years
later his father, Wiley Butler, entered the
confederate army. At the close of the
four years struggle he was child in his
mothers arms. He was reared on his ia
hers farm, eleven miles from the county
eat. and was prepared for college by his
mother and at Salem High School, neigh
boring county academy. He entered the
University of North Carolina in 1881, and
graduated i'll 1885. He had taken the law
curse at the university in addition to the
regular collegiate course, and would have
entered the legal profession the same year,
cut the sudden death Of his father at this
line changed the course of his life.
He was the oldest boy and had three
youngcr brothers and three sisters to be
educated. His father had made sacrifices

A Useful Python.

From 'SThree Years With Lobengula."
Once. while passing through a Dutch farm,
/ went up to the house to buy some eggs;
standing in front of the door was a large
barrel, and while was passing I careless.
ly tilted II up to see what was inside. but
promptly let 1t down again. as there was
a big python underneath. The Dutchman
told me he had shot at the snake some
months previously, and few grains enter
ing the head, the reptile appeared to be-
Tome stupefied and unable to move quickly
He then dragged II home, and extracted the
fangs, and 1t gradually became tame. The
python, which measured sixteen feet, was
allowed to crawl about the place at night,
never attempting to get away or do any
DAMAGE; In fact, they found 1t useful for
killing rats and vermin. By day 1t was
kept under the barrel. The children fed
the snake and played with IT. 1 saw one of
the little Dutch boys drag 1t out. and pour
two bottles of milk down Its throat. and
then gave II six eggs, which 1t swallowed.
When they leased the python. 1t made a
Kissing noise and reared up on it's tail;
they were not bit frightened. and would
catch hold of II by the head, and drag II
along the ground over their shoulders.

A MAORI TRICK,
Supplied Themselves With Bullets by
Setting Up Dummy Soldier.

The Duchess of Buckingham, In her
'Glimpses OF Four Continents" tells an
amusing Maori story belonging to the
period when these natives were at war
with England. Ali sorts Of tricks went
on, such as are not only fair, but COM
mendable In war. When the Maoris We're
in want of bullets. they used to show a
dummy in the bush; of course. it was i'm
mediately fired at. man in the back
ground pulled 1t down by string.
"Ohr' thought the British soldiers.
we've done for him.
Up came the dummy again, cautiously;
bang, bang, went the British rifles Down
fell dummy, and this went on till scme
worse marksman than usual cut the dunn
my rope. No Maori would go up the tree
to splice 1T, for the exposure meant certain
death. The bullets We're all taken out Of q
little earth-bank which the Maoris had
made behind the tree where the dummy
appeared, and were used over again. 1t
was long time before this artifice was
discovered.
