END OF THE WORLD.
An Asbury Park Pastor Thinks 1t Will
Come Right After tho Chinese War.

Tho Rev. Howard T. Widdcmer, tho
pastor of tho First Presbyterian church
of Asbury Park. N. D., has expressed
belief that the world will come to an
end i'll about ten years. Mr.. Widdomor
was teaching class of boys i'll the Sun
day school, and one of tho boys made q
remark about getting married.
"You should not begin SO early to
think of marriage" said Mr.. Widdo-
mer. ''When you are 30 years of age
you will be just about old enough. :"
"But may be dead by that time, I"
said tho boy
"Tcs, / think you will be dead"
was Mr.. Widdemer's unexpected reply
When asked to explain, the minister
said he thought all persons would be
dead before the boy reaches the age OF
30.
Ho bases his belief upon tho Scrip
tnres and particularly on that passage
which seems to prophesy tho end of the
world when the gospel shall have been
preached unto all the nations. He says
that already missionaries have carried
the gospel into every nation save one
small country, which, i'll his opinion,
tho present China-Japancso war will
open up.
"Whcn that country shall be con-
quered for Christ" said Mr.. Widdc-
lncr, "tho world will come to III end. >"

hold the fish until it opened it's gills,
and then Cooper thrust hand in OH

lunge's gills arc lined with little, sharp,
bonelike protuberances, and tho instant
Cooper inserted his hands the fish closed
the gills, and Cooper could not with
draw his hands.
A fearful struggle ensued between the
man and the fish, in the midst of which
Q swish Of the fish's tail knocked the

to get free, and he saw the child drown
before his eyes. Ho finally released one
of his hands and killed tho fish with q
hammer. Today he ca,no here for treat

friend and political foe predicted his
election.
"Give Bill Bradley time to talk TO
these people, and he would not only
get their votes, but they'd deed him
their farms" said a rival lawyer and a
democrat.
In person Colonel Bradley is not i'm
posing. He is feet inches tall and is
built wide. He weighs upwards of $50
pounds. He is just at the prime of life,
and at the close of the campaign was
as unjaded and unworried as when ne
made his opening address. He averaged
three speeches a day for two and one
half months, quite a record for a man
who eight years ago was notified by his
physicians to go to Colorado or his
lungs wouldn't last six months.
Colonel Bradley's face is genial and
pleasant, bus yet IL is the face of one
whose opinions are unyielding when
once formed. His eyes are blue and
good-humored, but they are those of a
man who cannot be talked or wheedled
out of anything he has or any beliefs
he may possess. He has the eyes OF
decided man.
He has one faculty which is decided
ly that of another man of Kentucky
birth. He has an inexhaustible store
of anecdotes and is the best story-teller
since Lincoln was on the stump. He
Is highly educated. widely read, uses

Good Judges of whiskey.

Joe G. s. Blackburn and John G..
Carlisle were some years ago visiting
a common friend at his summer resi-
dence. The host had some old Ken
lucky whiskey of which he was very
proud and this was, in his estimation.
the richest treat he could offer the
Kentuckians. 1t lay In his cellars In
the original package and as the Ken
tuckians had about finished the pint
which had just been drawn off he took
occasion to say that the whiskey was
10 years old.
mo" said Mr.. Carlisle, that's very
good whiskey but it's only II years
old"
Mr.. Blackburn said: That's right,
John. and II came from Bourbon coun-
ty, in my old district"
The host agreed that II was Bour-
bon county whiskey but maintained
that II was 10 years old and asked his
visitors for a candid opinion of its
merits. Blackburn tried another
glass and said: 81 have only one
fault 10 find and that is a slight IA
vor OF rusty metal" Carlisle filed
again and said that so far as ne was
concerned he was unable to detect any
flavor of metal but IL did taste a
little leathery.
This criticism rather wrought on
the feelings of their host. who de-
clared that II was impossible that
either leather or metal could have
come in contact with the goods as they
were still In the wood, and as for the
age he would take them into the cell
lar where they could satisfy them
selves on that score. Into the cellar
they went and the seals showed that
Mr.. Carlisle's estimate OF their age was
correct. This the host confessed af-
ter an examination but he refused TO
admit that there was any of flavor
20 his pet brand. The Kentuckians
tasted again and were more firmly set
IN their opinions than before. Finally
the host undertook TO settle the dis
pute and when the Lass dregs were
reached an old fashioned carpet tack,
with a leather washer. was found in
the bottom of the barrel. That. Of
course. ended the discussion and the
host has never since disputed the word
OF Kentuckian when he was talking
about Observation-Disclosures Tribune.

superstitions That Are Attached to the

From the Philadelphia Times,
Superstitious people, Why, all of us

Mondays child Is fair of face.
Tuesdays child is full of grace.

Thursdays Child has far to go.
Fridays child is loving and giving
Saturdays child must work for liv-
ing.
But the child that is born on the Sab

1t is handy to know the old rhmyes,
for-h II be a pleasant one--it is nice
to inscrfbe on a birthday gift, though
hope nobody will infiict that on a

AS for the month in which one
chances to be born, a friend of mine
has evolved number of wondrous and
interesting things from a very simple
book of astrology. Here are few
hints:
If girl is born in January she will
be prudent housewife, given to mel
ancholy but of good temper.
II in February, a humane and affec-
tionate wife and a tender mother.
III in March, generous and impulsive,
but apt to be headstrong.
If in April, inconsistent, not very
intelligent, but likely to be good look
ing.
If in May, handsome, amiable, and
likely to be happy.
II in June, impetuous. will marry ear
