BANQUET.

Last Friday evening, a kindly re-
membrance came TO us, in the form
Of an invitation to be present at the
the hall it deiDg the occasion OF a
visit from the Department President,
Mrs. Emma B. Aldrich Of Cawker
City. After a pleasant social, and the
renewal Of the acquaintance, that we
had Gee enjoyed with this gifted
woman, the Local President, Mrs.
Heath, let the gavel fall. Post Com
mander, Judge Pratt, gave an adj
dress Of welcome, IN his usual, happy,
genial style. Elder See gave us a
patriotic, eloquent talk, strongly en-
bued with love OF country. Then
Mrs. Heath introduced Mrs. Aldrich
in her vivacious way, aud she briefly
traced the organization of the w. II.
0. from its beginning to the present
time, how commencing without funds
or chart, it has grown to be one Of
the most perfectly organized societies
in the country, One could not listen
to this winsome woman and her strong
forceful words Of loyalty, presenting
the fact that this orders work meant
mercy, love and comfort for the needy,
and not feel that it is indeed good to
answer "here" ut roll call in this
corps. DR.. Robinson had charge Of
the vocal music, and he has grown to
be favorite in song, it was of course
good. Refreshments were then sery-
cd, and the delicious coffee cake and
ice cream we're greatly enjoyed by all,
There were few visitors present
from Marvin, which added to the en-
joyment Of the evening. Mrs AL
drlch and like remembrance will
both always be gladly welcomed.

Napoleon and His Pipe.

Napoleon was a snuff taker in a mild way, smelling of the tobacco rather than snuffing it, but never learned to smoke. Once only, according to his valet, Constant, he tried pipe. The at tempt, of which Constant gives hu- morous account, was on this wise:
 An eastern ambassador, Persian or Turkish, had presented the emperor with handsome oriental pipe, and one day the fancy took him to use it Con- stant, at his master request, got every thing in readiness and applied the fire. It remained, of course, for the emperor to set the tobacco alight by drawing in his breath. So his valet told him.
 But" adds Constant, "at the rate his majesty went to work the thing would never be done He contented himself with opening and shutting his lips without breathing the least in the world"
 Finally he put the pipe into the valet's hands and commanded him to light 1t, which the valet did and returned the pipe to his majesty. Napoleon took one good puff and was as awkward this time as before The smoke got into his windpipe, and instead of being expelled through the mouth it came out of the nostrils and eyes. So Constant says at all events
 The emperor was nearly strangled, and as soon as he recovered breath he cried:
 '"Tal1e it away. The horrible thing It makes me sick"
 It was more than an hour before he recovered his equanimity, and that was the end of his career as a smoker. - Youths Companion.

An ingenious device is for locking the steering gear for bicycles. By turn ct the key, it is stated, the front wheel of the machine can be locked in any posi- tion. If the bicycle is left standing at the side of the pavement with tho steer ing gear locked and thief jumps on to ride off with it, he will soon find him. self in difficulties The locking appa- ratus is very small. It adds but few ounces to the weight of the machine, and unless one looked for it specially it would quite escape notice.
