THE REAL TRoUBLE.--Bingo--Didn't
YOU have some trouble in building your
house?
Kingley-Oh, a little. The archi-
tect made slight mistake in the esti-
mate, and it cost me 81 900 more than
counted on.
"Was that all"
"All? No, sir. The carpenters for
got there was such thing as specihca-
tions, and left out hall but of course
one shouldn't mind little thing like
that"
"Certainly not"
"Then the pipes were put in wrong,
and had to be replaced"
That usually happens"
"Oh yes. Then l neglected my busi-
ness for three months trying to find the
architect, and that cost me pretty
penny"
"But you expected that?"
"Certainly. After the place was
finished, l found my old furniture
wouldn't do, and had to get a new
outfit. Then my cellar flooded, the
roof leaked, the piazza warped; but
these things aren't anything to the
trouble I'm in now."
"What's the matter now?"
II can't sell the house."

JOSEPH Cook ON DANCING.-Joseph
Cook, having been called on for an
opinion on cardplaying and dancing,
wrote recently the following letter:
"There is famous French proverb
which SAYS, 'Ou la vertu finit, Ia COM
mence lie vice. where virtue ends, vice
begins I see no virtue in what today
is known as the round dance, nor in So
cial cardplaying. They are ante-cham-
bers of mischief, even if they are not
themselves the worst forms of mischief.
1t is safest to keep out of such ante
chambers. I am assured by those
whose work has given them oppor-
tunity to know the facts at first hand,
that hundreds of gamblers have found
fashionable card playing the beginning
of their road to ruin, and also that
the commencement of the unreport-
able degradation of thousands of aban-
doned women has been in the modern
ball and round dance. For one, l al
ways maintain that card playing and
dancing, learned by respectable young
people, may easily become bond ofun-
ion between them and other people
who are not so respectable, and so
be a snare to those who are yet in their
largely inexperienced years.-Michi-
gan Advocate.

~The best briar root from which

mountainous districts of these coun-
tries roots are dug out that have grown
for ages, and are sometimes larger than

pounds.

Japanese, their patriotic eagerness to

WORTH THINKING ABoUT.-ln
many of the large apartment houses
of New York the clothes are hung
on the roof to dry, and as the
roof, in the majority of cases, is not
large enough to accommodate the COM
bined washing of all the apartments,
each family has a different wash-day
assigned to it. On Wednesday, for
instance, the entire wash belonging to
four families may be hung on the roof,
on Thursday giving place to the wash
of four other families, and so on. This
often leads to mistakes, and complaints
of losses are not infrequently heard.
Recently young married lady who
occupied an apartment on the west
side of the town engaged new SER
want, and directed her to exercise ex-
treme care in hanging out the clothes,
and be sure that they were not taken
away by any other girl. After the
clothes came back, she went out to
the kitchen, and was Mortified to find
that the clothes were not hers, but
belonged to some one else.
"Oh, Bridget" she exclaimed, "these
are not our clothes Why"-holding
up several of the garments in turn
"they don't even fit J"
"Shure, marm," replied Bridget,
triumphantly, "they may not fit, but

HE GOT OUT.
But First Explained to the Conductor Why
He Did So.

But First Explained to the Conductor Why
He Did So.
He may have been hayseed. he
looked it, but way down deep in his
eyes the second time you looked you
seemed to notice supicion OF real
"slickness" that escaped you at first.
He held ticket to Tecumseh when
he got on the train at Topeka, and he
gave it up promptly to the conductor
on demand. :,
When the conductor came through
the train after it had left Tecumseh,
he was surprised to see the same man
sitting complacently in the same seat.
"Ticket," said the conductor.
Haven't got any," said the man.
"Then you'll have to pay" said the
conductor.
"Can't do it," said the man.
"Then I'll have to put you off," said
the conductor.
"What, right out here in the coun-
try ?" asked the man.
"Right out here in the country" re-
piled the conductor.
A good many of the other passen-
gers were interested at once and the
argument continued. The conductor
noticed-he said afterward-that the
man kept looking out Of the window
as he talked and did not seem to be in
hurry. Of course the train was run
ming all the time.
The farmer finally went down into
his pocket and got out his purse. He
was not in a hurry about it, and after
he had opened it seemed lost IN
thought. -
"Come," said the conductor. ~
can't fool with you all day."
"Must pay or get of, eh?" asked
the farmer.
"I said that" replied the man with
the punch. There was another mo-
ment's silence. The farmer took anoth-
er look out of the window.
II guess you can put me Off," ne
said.
The train was stopped, and the con-
ductor went with the man to the rear
platform to see that he got on and
staid off. -.
"See thst white house over there p
asked the son of toll.
The conductor could see it easily.
"That's where I work." said the
farmer. "This is the nearest the rail-
road comes to it. / am much obliged
to- you for letting me off here. l was
afraid wouldn't keep you interested
till we got here. Have cigar?
And the granger jumped lightly to the
ground and was gone.
The train was two minutes behind
time before the conductor recovered
his breath.
"Well, III be-" he said in a
humbled tone, and'then he wentin and
kicked the newsboy.-Topeka State

An Explosion in Massachusetts That

WopuRN, Mass, April 1.-The boiler
in Loving's tannery exploded at 7o'cIock
,bis morning. Five bodies have been
taken out of the ruins. 1t is not known
how many were killed. just before I
o,clock this morning one of the boilers
in the Connecticut tannery exploded

tered the boiler room and ordered the
ub;stle to he blown to start the works.
The rope attached to the whistle WAS
pulled and instantly there was fearful
explosion. The big iron smokestack on
tbe boiler house was blown high IN
the air and fell across the roof OF the
shop, and the tall brick chimney fell IN
thousands of pieces, crashing the engine
room beneath it. Men hurried from all
parts of town and the work of removing
those buried under the ruins was com
uenced. Piteous cries of the injured
mined under the debris urged the res
cuers on to rapid work, and in a short
time the bodies of four men had been
taken out.
