An irish peasant once complained to the
Catholic priest of his parish that some
person had stolen his best pig and suppl
Gated his reverence to help him to the dis
covery of the thief. The priest promised
his best endeavor, and his inquiries soon
leading him to guess the offender he took
the following amusing method Of bringing
the matter home to him. Next Sunday
after the service of the day he called out
with a loud voice, fixing his. eye on the
suspected individual, "Who stole Pat Doo-
lan's pigp"
There was long pause and no answer.
He did not expect there would be any and
descended from the pulpit without saying
word more.
A second Sunday arriving without the
pig being restored, his reverence, again
looking steadfastly at the stubborn pur-
loiner and throwing deep note Of anger
into the tone Of his voice, repeated tho
question: "Who stole Pat Doolan's pigt
I say, who stole Pat Doolan's piga"
Still there was no answer, and the ques-
tion was left as before to work Its effect In
secret on the conscience Of the guilty indi-
vidual The hardihood Of the offender,
however, exceeded all the honest priest 8
calculations.
A third Sunday arrived, and Pat Doo-
Ian was still without his pig Some
stronger measures now became necessary.
After service was performed his reverence,
dropping the question of "Who stole Pat
Doolan's pigp" but still without directly
accusing any one Of theft reproachfully
exclaimed, "Jimmie Doran, Jimmie Do
ran, you trate me with contempt" Jim.
mie Doran hung down his head and next
morning the pig was found at the door Of
Pat DoSlan's cabin. Household Words.

The King of wild Pigs.

Grizzly Bend was the name borne for
many years by that portion of the county
lying along the Sacramento river south.
easterly from Chico and embracing the
Parrot ranch and other lands in that vi.
cinity. OF course it is long years since the
grizzly held possession there, as, like the
Indian, he was forced to give way before
the pioneer settlers Of that vicinity.
A place, however, so well calculated for
the home of the grizzly could not long be
without its representative, even If it had
to be an animal somewhat less wild and
more domestic in its habits. Hogs turned
loose in the swamps and morasses soon be-
came SO wild that it was dangerous for a
person to be caught unawares by ono Of
the patriarchs of the herds that infested
the district.
So large and vicious had one Of these
fellows become that he was known and
feared by all the residents in that vicinity,
and for his wild nature and ferocious con-
duct generally had become known as "Old
Grizzly" who, it was claimed, was bull
let proof and couldn't be slain. Recently
he fell victim to a party of hunters who
sought him with the avowed purpose OF
sffecting his determination.
The boar was an immense follow and
weighed $50 pounds. His tusks were
long, one of them being partly broken OF.
The hide was over On inch thick, and
the shields on the shoulders were IN inches
thick. He had never been injured by dogs
or gun before.-Oroville (Cal) Mercury.

pIneuI.l.. of carnatlon Culture.

Luck is not a reliable factor in the
difficult problem Of carnation culture. 1t
demands exhaustive knowledge of the
habits, requirements and diseases Of the
plant, unceasing watchfulness and unre-
mitting labor the year through. Even
when all is done that seems possible to
merit success. the grower is liable to the
evaporation Of finding that particular
varieties. upon which he may have based
his most sanguine expectations, obsti-
nately refuse to flourish under his care.
Almost every carnation culturist knows
varieties that he "simply cannot raise"
and neither he, Eor anybody else, can
tell the reason why. Of course, there
must be something lacking, in soil, wa
ter, air or treatment, which they re-
quire, but it seems as if they were ca
pable of taking offense at him, or his
surroundings, and preferring death. or
at least unproductive life, to endurance
Of the association. n.-Scribner's

Dingley Takes Thlags Seriously.

Dingley Of Maine, good man and q

Some of our best minds and most profound
philosophers are upholstered that way.
So Dingley is not alone.
Dingley was telling John Allen Of the
general dullness of trade and the abso-

mercial opportunity for money making.
"The question of profit making" said
Dingley, "has oil but departed the busi-
ness world. Men now are glad If the
chance presents itself to nay expenses and

that, too, within three or four days. AS
usual, though, didn't have the capital
and had to decline. Icouldn't invest in 1t,
as didn't havo the money. However,
believe the chance is still open, If you care
to go in, Dingley."
"Why, it's most remarkable" said
Dingley, quite excited. "It's most re-
markable. What was the opportunity,
Allen, to invest which would pay 20 per
cent in week. I should like very much
to hear Of it."
"Why," drawled Allen, "it was on the
cable cars. The conductor offered to sell
me six tickets for q quarter, clean gain,
you see, of 90 per cent over paying fol
rides at cents ride. But, as said,
couldn't close with it. didn't have the

Even then 1t didn' enter Dingley's head

A well known lapidary cautions those
who own turquoise rings to remove them

place In the stones is that they are affected
by acid emanation from the skin as well
as by certain elements in some kinds of
cologne and other perfumes. The changes
In the color Of the topaz are believed to be

the stones show that strong sunlight will
