Met Their Match.

A little while ago the minister of
certain church in Scotland came TO
the conclusion that one of his flock,
a shrewd old lady, had not been pres
ent at divine service SO frequently as
was necessary for her spiritual well
fare So he called for two OF his ell
ders. and they sailed forth to inter-
view the delin Iuent on the subject.
That astute persCnage having
Oeen forewarned Of the intended
visit, prepared sumptuOus repast,
consisting OF the finest of haddOcks
ard the lighteSt OF scOneS. surficienL
in quantity to make good square
meal for do en- ordinary persons
but the minister and the two
ieacons were not ordinary persOns-
at least, in the matter Of appetite;
and therefore, when they rose from
the feast there was nothing left but
the bones of the haddOcKs.
Then, with much JUNCTION, the
minister proceeded to inter. ogate his
hostess as to her absence from kirk.

re and the elders had been there the
disciples wouldna have e taken up one

Under the Seat.

81 saw a most ridiculous Joke
played on a man between Usage CITY
and Topeka last week." said Clement
+. Stone OF Newton. Kansas 1.-Two
men boarded the train at Usage City
and took seat In the smoker just in
front Of me. 1t was evident from
their conversation, which was car
,ried on in quite loud tone, that
they were both OF them in hard luck
and were going to Topeka in search
of employment One of them placed
his ticket OD the seat while he lit a
very inferior cigar, and his compan-
ion quickly picked it upand put it in
his pocket A few minutes later the
man missed his ticket, and went
through the usual pantomime Of
t,rning out all his rockets and look
ing in hat lining AKnowing that
the conductor wOuie1 pe around in a
moment, and also that he had not
enough money in his pocket to pay
his fare again, he began asking the
advice OF his friend, who suggested
gravely that he crawl under the seat
and try to escape notice that way.
There seemed no other alternative
for the unfOr r,unate man, who
cramped himself under the seat as
suggested When the conductor
came along the practical joker handed
him two tickets, and was, OF course,
asked who the second one was for.
He replied that it was for his friend,
who preferred riding under the seat,
Whereupon the victim of the Joke
crawfed out, and, amid general
laughter, knocked the dust Oft his
clothes and promised to break his

After q great deal of persuasion,
however, the girl appeared to waive

The day of the ceremony came at
last and it was while they were
standing together and taking their
vows, that the Roman maiden sud-

arms and sobbed out: "You shall

Freaks of the Candy Trade.


Candy consumers will scarcely be.

edible is particularly in demand, and
others when business shuts down and
fashionable manufacturers say moth

when candy takes rest! Yet so it
is. aud after the summer hotel sea-
son it drops off as many points as ii
in the original sugar, and will not re-
vive until December, when the
factories start up for the Christmas
trade There are girls who will de-
clare this to be impossible. They, at
all events, never let up on its con-
sumption. Why, then, should the
candy business ever languish? But
it was estimated at a summer hotel
recently that the bellies, of whom
there were several, averaged two and
