Poor Frank.

When the class in geography was
called up. it was noticed that one of
the boys, Frank by name-and rather
duu nv nature-was looking uncom-
monty well pleased with himself.
"Well. Frank" said the teacher, do
YOU know your lesson to-day!
Eyes. ma'am," he answered. The
answer to the first question is South
and the next is Africa and the next
is South America and the next IS
Peninsula
"But, Frank, that isn't the way to
learn a lesson. You must skip about.
That's the way shall do in asking the
questions.
Franks countenance fell. His great
discovery was of no use.
.But, Miss Gray" he said. l mlgn.

the lawyer proceeded to draw har-
rowing picture of two gray-haired par
ents in England looking anxiously for
the return of their prodigal son to
spend the next Christmas with them,
and he asked: Had they the hearts
to deprive the old couple of this hap
piness?"
The jury, however, found the pris-
oner guilty. Before passing sentence,
the Judge called for the prisoners jail
record. after examining which he
blandly remarked that ''the prisoner
had some five previous convictions

Missouri's Old Soldiers.

Missouri is great country for sol
diers. During the great civil war it
would appear that almost the entire
male population of sufficient age was
called on to bear arms. Between the
Union and Confederate forces there
was, as Phil Kearny phrased it, Glove
ly fighting along the whole line" There
was no community that did not eX-
perience the sights and sounds, the ex-
elements and alarms of war. After
hostilities had ceased the military ele-
ment was largely reinforced from be-
yond the Mississippi. In those days
Missouri was considered new country
and was sought by immigrants. Ger

noise resembles the crack of ali old

the explosion, together with the force

avoid injury to the derrick or for other
reasons, a piece of bent casing is screw

through the derrick to one side.
From the we'll the oil is conducted to
small wooden storage tanks, which, by
means of pipe lines, are connected to
the large iron storage tanks of the pipe
line company. These tanks contain
from 10000 to 10000 barrels of oil each
when full, and are located at conven-
lent places through the Oil field. At

done as rule, save to prevent other

His Job Blew Through His Whiskers


A story is told of a Philadelphia hotel
keeper Employed as a porter about
the hotel was an elderly man named
Mike. who had been an attache of the
hotel for eight years. His most prom
inent feature and one of which he was
very proud. was beard of luXuriant
growth. One day last week the pro
prietor Of the house was pacing the
lobby when Mike happened to pass.
The proprietor was in very disagree
able frame Of mind, and he stopped and
looked at Mike with an evil light in his
eye. "Come here, YOU he yelled at
the porter How long have you been
here?' Nigh onto eight years, soI."
"Well, you've been here long enough.
You needn't come back tomorrow. Pm
tired Of seeing you about" The poor
porter was thunder-struck. He went
to his friend. the day clerk. and told
him all about it. "Whct'll OF do?" said
he. "Oi'ye a wolfe and family tur t
support, an Oh can't get another job. !"
The clerk thought for a minute and
then said suddenly: 81 have it. You
go home and shave off your beard, and
then go to the boss and tell him you
heard he needed a porter" Mike fol-
lowed the advice next day and secured
the situation, becoming his own sue
cessor The proprietor has never sus-
pected the trick.

when they go forth on their wheels
than any other of Chicago's great army

their bikes people line the streets to
watch them pass by; wherever they
stop is a crowd. 1t is rather unusual to
see two men in silk hats, long Prince
Albert coats, and looking rs much alike
as two peas in the pod, riding bicycles,
but that is the way the Rev. Morrill,
they shift the Prince Alberts for long
black alpaca coats and the silk hats
for high, sober, clerical-looking straw
bonnets. That is partly the reason why
they attract SO much attention, some

John Hookham Frere was n scholar
and man of much literary ability, but
one Of those whose work, for some rea-
son, finds q very slight hearing. But
even IL his literary work should be quite
forgotten the stories of his absence Of
mind will live as long as incongruous
error continues to amuse.
One day he sat repeating some verses to
Mr.. John Murray in Mr.. Murray's office,
and his host became 40 interested in the
poem that he asked the poet to go homo
with him to dinner and continue the
recitation. Mr.. Frere, startled to find 1t
30 late, excused himself. He had been
married that morning, he said. and 1t
was already past the hour when he had
promised his wife to be ready for their
journey into tho country.
Another such story rests ON the au-
thority Of his wife herself. Mr.. Frere
had just been introduced TO her at an
evening party and offered to take her
down stairs to procure some refresh
ment He became so Interested in their
conversation. however, that he drank
the glass Of negus he had poured for her
and was about to conduct her up stairs
when she laughingly demonstrated with
him for having forgotten her needs.

that my new acquaintance was, at any
rate, very different from most of the
young men around us"-Youth's q Com
