There Arc Nips and Nips.


A gentleman who lived about 80
miles from London had been up to
town to a theater and was going
home by the midnight train.
It was a bitterly cold night, and
the ticket inspector who stood by
the train kept on stamping his feet
to keep them warm. s1'F
"You look cold. . said the gentle
man as he came up. won't you
take nip of somethingi"
THANK you, SIR" said the man
gratefully.
"Then take a nip of this" hold.
ing out the ticket, and the gentle
man got into the carriage chuckling
over his little joke.
But he wasn't so amused later on
when he found himself being swift
ly carried past his destination, the
inspector having put him into an
ordinary carriage instead Of the slip
coach which stopped at his place.
He was landed 40 miles farther
on, on raw morning, with no pos.
sibility Of catching a train home for
many hours, and his language was
most uncomplimentary.
But that was some one else's joke

Lord Bowen. who died IN 1894
was an English judge whom his
country will not soon forged, for be
was not only just and learned man,
but brilliant one. His humorous
and witty sayings live in the 1aem-
ory of his friends, and. though only.
few Of them may haye been chxon-
icled, they are an earnest Of al the
rest.
One day some one in his presence
referred to the fact that q publisher
who was noted for his hard bargains
with authors had built q church at
his own expense.
.Ah." quoted Bowen at onoe, ''the
old story! The blood Of martyrs Is
the seed Of the churchl" Come
times his wit had delicate flavor Of
hattery, as when he assured some Ia
dies who had climbed a perilous Al
pine peak that they had solved q
problem which had vexed medieval
schoolmen-how many angels could
stand on the point Of . needle.
Again, it had q satiric touch. At
Hamburg the Prince Of Wales kept,
or tried to keep, a faithless little
dog, which persisted in running
away. 4.s..-

INDIAN ARTIFIcER3.
| Their Methods Are Crude, and Their
Tsols Are Practically Worthless.

the building and repair of houses is
chiefly remarkable for the inaccu-
acy of all he does, for the blunt
condition Of his tools and for his in.
genuity in making excuses. Away
from large towns he is usually with
out foot rule and has never seen
a grindstone.
Let us take the woodworker as a
typical example and inquire into
what he most needs in the way of
education. His methods are very de.
fective. His tools are blunt as a nor
NAL condition, SO blunt as to great
ly retard his speed and ease in work
ing. This arises from his defective
means of sharpening them. His
milestone is too small and is never
fiat on the surface, so that it always
produces rounded cutting edge.
If provided with a good and
smooth grindstone, he straightway
outs it into grooves and otherwise
abuses it until it is unfit for use. He
then returns to the original method
without thought of putting the
grindstone in order. This may be
seen in Bombay at the present time.
It has been urged that the grind
stone is too expensive a tool for a
native carpenter who has a small
fixea workshop, but this is absurd,
as it may be made Of any sandstone
and may be mounted entirely in
wood, including axle. bearings and
handle. All sandstones are not equal
ly good, but any one is better than
the milestone as at present used.
The sharpening of saws comes
next in order. It involves an outlay
on files which the carpenter is loath
tomake. have met only one Indian
workman who without compulsion
kept his saws in good order. The
general result is an enormous
amount Of needless labor that q
sharp and we'll set saw would obvi-
ate. Cutting close up to a pencil line
or cutting it out altogether-an
operation that any European ap-
Plen'ace can Pet1oIm-ls an un-
Known ART among most lnoian work
men.

County Treasurer Williamson went to
Meade Monday, to look after the inter-
ests Of the county in the bank failure
case. There has been some little com.
ment going the rounds lately, unfavora.
BILE to jim, but We are glad to note that
it is confined to very few people
throughout the county. The chances
are that the treasurer will be able to get
all the money back, but if it should
turn out that he cannot, we don't be.
lieye that he should be compelled to
sacrifice his property in order to
reimburse the county treasury Jim
never sought the eficc in the first place
friends nominated and elected him
but he has been a model officer, has per,
formed his duties conscientiously, and
though he is held by law for the full
amount entrusted to the defunct bank
there is no reason apparent to us why
he should be compelled to give up the
last dollar he has on earth in order to
meet this unjust obligation. By untir-
ing energy, years of hard work, Jim has
accumulated a small bunch of cattle,
and he would willingly part with every
hoof, if necessary, in order to get this
business settled but, his friends shonld
see that there is no necessity for it. 1t
was not his fault that the bank broke,
not his fault that the county had no
suitable place to keep its money.
The county will not los anything.
Jim will liquidate the claim, though it
takes his last cent. and then some.
Jim's friends are legion-wby not see to
it that he is not compelled to bear the
bruDt of this disaster, should it transpire
that he cannot get the money from the
bank?
