Important officials sometimes forget that
there are persons who can afford to disre-
gard their Importance. A purse proud old
noOlcman was travelling through the rural
districts of Sweden. One day lie stopped
his carriage at a country tavern and called
out il an imperious tone:
az orses, landlord Horses at oncel"
81 am very much panied to inform you
that you will have to wait over an hour be-
fore fresh horses can be brought up" re-
piled the landlord calmly.
"Howr' violently exclaimed the noble
man. "This TO mel My man, I demand
horses Immediately"
Then observing the fresh, sleek looking
ones which were being led up to another
carriage, he continued:
For whom are those horsess"
"They were ordered for this gentleman"
replied the landlord, pointing TO a tall, slim
individual few PAGES distant.
Il say, my man." called out the noble
man, will you let me have those horses if
Ipay you liberal bonusi"
NO" answered the slim man. 81 intend
to use them myself"
perhaps you are not aware who / amp
roared the now thoroughly agitated and
irate nobleman. II am, sir, Field Marshal
Baron George Spare, the last and only one
of my race"
~ am very glad to hear that" said the
slim man, stepping into his carriage "It
would be terrible thing to think that
there might be more of you coming. l am
inclined to think that your race will be a
foot race"
The slim man was the king of Sweden

REMARKABLE DREAMS.
Premonitions of the Death of Butte City
Woman and Her sister.

Premonitions of the Death of Butte City
Woman and Her Sister.
A short time ago Mrs. Thomas J. JEFF
fries of Butte City, Mon, was killed at n
railroad crossing while out driving. Many
of the friends of the deceased lady now ro-
call presentiment she had of her approach
ing death and in the manner she met 1t.
Only few days before her death she called
on several of her neighbors and told them
she had an indescribable feeling Of impend-
ing danger, and that she knew she would
soon die.
Her friends tried to persuade her that
there was nothing to fear from such pre-
sentiment and urged her to dismiss the
matter from her mind. She would not be
dissuaded, however, and requested the
friend to whom she was talking to interest
herself in the child when she was dead; also
named certain of her neighbors whom she
desired to prepare her body for burial. At
the same time she expressed a wish that no
other persons be permitted to touch he-
body. In fact, she made all suggestions
for her funeral and the care of the child she
would leave motherless.
A day or'two before the fatal accident
Mrs Jeffries was out buggy riding with
party. During the drive they had occasion
to cross a railroad track. A train was ap-
preaching from the distance, and although
SO far away that there was no danger the
lady thought the accident she so wildly ex-
pected was about to overtake her and near
ly tainted in consequence. When all danger
had passed, her attention was called to the
evident absurdity of her fears, but she SIM
ply maintained that the time had not yet
arrived, and that sooner or later her pre-
sentiment would prove true.
As a further evidence of the lady's
strange power to forecast and receive pre-
monitions Of impending calamities, it is re-
lated by one of her friends that some time
ago she had vivid dream Of funeral
passing her door. She asked some one as
to whose funeral it was The answer, as
she heard it in her dream, was that the
dead person was her sister, Mrs. Jeffries
felt that the dream portended something
unfortunate, but was hardly prepared for
the telegram which she received next day
telling of the dc,,h Of her sister, which
occurred at Der home in the east.
Mrs. JefTrics was the last of n family of
children. A brother 6 hers was also killed
in an accident several years ago, and it is
related that by the same strange gift she
had premonition of his death.-Pittsburg

An insurance agent, albeit us aful aud
at times attractive person, is not always Il
welcome visitor. To some people, indeed,
he is a decided bore. One of this class owns
a handsome residence, and even the thought
of an agent provokes his ire. One evening re-
Gently he was enjoying his otium cum dig
when man walked in on him very unce re-
moniously. The visitor was a total st ranger
to him, and before he had time to throw an
inkstand at him or to ask him to sit down
he began quite calmly and in n mot bust
nesslike tone to talk.
"llave you any insurance on this liouse9"
said lie.
Well, Mr.. Otium-cum-dig was afro in a
miaute.
What do you mean, sir" he stormc1
by breaking into my house, sir, in this
mountaineering into my house with your
internal insurance business? 1t is no con-
Germ of yours, sir, whether this house is in
sured or not. Get out, or I'll throw you
out"
The visitor was as calm as May morn.

That's what the visitor said, but Mr..

gone to the fire, and the visitor smiled and

The completion OIL telephone
around Hawaii is, next to the
building of new roads, the best
thing that has been done on that
island. Capital very rarely pen
etrates undeveloped territory !
unless there are means Of getting
there, and the Government can
not expect to get people to IN
vest their money unless there are
facilities for transacting business.
Take kailua, for instance, which
is in the midst of the Kona coffee
industry. To get lumber from
the landing to the plantations
two or three miles upland
costs ten dollars a thousand.
If there were good roads
this cost would be materially
reduced. A telephone line
around Hawaii will be great
convenience to the shippers
along the coast as well as to the
steamer companies.
The ladies of Honolulu who
are interested in wood carving
will find it to their interest and
advantage to examine our stock
OF Tools used in making bits
of art out of rough lumber.
These Tools were imported es-
pecially tor some ladies who
have abandoned Crochetting for
more solid work. Next to paint
ing, wood carving has taken a
prominent part in the daily life
OF the average lady in the Unit
ed States and the fad seems to be
advancing toward these Islands.
New inventions are constantly
coming forward to reduce the
work about the kitchen. One OF
the latest that has come to our
notice is a Fish Scaler. With
the advent OF this article the
short bladed knife welded by
little brown man will cease to
be the means used in removing
the scales from fish. This little
arrangement resembles short
saw blades placed close together
with a handle on the end, the
madns operaudi is to take the tail
of the fish between the thumb
and finger of the left hand and
the Fish Scaler in the right,
sweep it gently once or
twice over this scales and they
disappear as if by magic.
twenty-five cents invested in one
of these scalers will save your
cook lots of time in preparing his
fish for dinner.
Let us again call your attention
to the merits of the wonderful
Wertheim Sewing Machine. 1t
runs easier and does more work
in less time than any sewing
machine made. 1t is the only
one that will sew three distinct
stitches without the bother of
changing thread, needle or shut =
tie. 1t has the handsomest
table and the most simple mech
anism, and sells for less money
than a common article that sews
but one stitch. If there has
been a machine invented that
approaches the Wertheim in any
particular it has never been
brought to notice. The Vert
helm is not sold in the United
States for the reason that the
duty is so high that it is prohibi-
tory. The people over there
want it, but the price is too high.
We have an advantage in this
respect because our duties are
within reason, and necessities are
not strictly barred out. We can
sell a Wertheim machine low
enough to make it within reach
of every one. If you are in
need OF a sewing machine you
had better ayamine OIIrS
