TRICKS OF THE TYPES.
Two Amusing Blunders OF British
CompositOrs.

Two Amusing Blunders OF British
Competitors.
A writer in Macmillan's Magazine Of
fers in an article on printers errors
some superb mikes" as blendfngs of
allen paragraphs are called. We borrow
a couple. The first owes its character to
an interpolated line from a report of a
public meeting:
'On the Sd inst. at ELLINGTON the wife
of ]. S. Terry, schoolmaster, of son.
He spoke indistinctly, but was under
stood to say that on the 3dinst. at Ripon,
the wife of Joseph Landseer, tailor, of a
daughter"
The second occurred in description
of the campaign of Roman Catholic mis-
sionaries in Central Africa:
'"They are accustomed to begin their
work by buying heather children and
educating them. The easiest and best
way to prepare them is to first wipe
them with clean towel then place
them in dripping-pans and bake them
until they are tender. After which cut
them in slices and cook for several
hours"

TEN THOUSAND DEAD WOLVES.
A Heavy Drain on North DakOta's
Treasury Caused by Bounty Law.

A Heavy Drain on North Dakotas
Treasury Caused by Bounty Law.
The last legislature appropriated $12,-
900 to carry out the provisions of wolf
bounty law that gave three dollars for
each wolf slain in any part of North Da-
kota, and expected the money to last
through full biennial period till the
next session. Now it has been shown
that the appropriation for the two years
will be oyerdrawn by at least $4,000 in
the first few months of the first season.
At least 10000 wolves Of the large gray
variety have been killed by hunters
and trappers who have made business
of the matter this season.
The wolf bounty law was passed at
the earnest request of stoclSmen in all
parts of the state, whose losses from the
ravages Of the gray wolves have been
exceptionally large and were continual
ly increasing. The majority of the Ger
tifcates come from the western part Of
the state, and the next greatest number
from the northern tier of counties. Bill
lings county, one of the largest stock
counties of the state, will have thou
sand ormore certificates. Billings also
pays a county bounty, which is draw
ing heavily on her resources. There are
a thousand certificates out in Williams
county, andlone man has nearly 300. He
is said to be the champion wolf hunter
of the state.
The favorite method of killing wolves
is with dogs. Poisoning was the former
method. Shooting is surer method,
but it is difficult to get close enough to
a wolf to secure good shot. With dogs,
a wolf seen is as good as captured if the
dogs are good, and many Of Nhem are
being bred for that purpose,

A Thoughtful Little Girl.

All Boston children are thoughtful.
1t was a dear, thoughtful little Boston
girl who, when told by her mother Of
the death Of grandmother she greatly
loved, sat silent awhile, and then, look
ing up, said: Mamma, what time did
grandma die?"
"At four o'clock in the afternoon"
was the answer.
Again the little girl lapsed into
mournful silence, until, as though ray
of sunshine had broken through the
gloomy cloud, she devoutly exclaimed:

Cid Price OF Wives.

When Virginia was settled auctions of
wives were held at jamestown. The
average price was EGO, or 5000. The
only place on the continent now where
such a price might prevail is the Klon-
dixie. There are $4,000 more women
than men in Massachusetts, alone, which
is an indication that the market is over
stocked.

A DreAsmakfnG Hint.

A pretty way to freshen a white chif-
fon or organdie waist is to cut away the
entire portion that covers the upper
part of the bodice and shoulders; stitch
ing the raw edges thus made to secure
them, then adding new yoke top,
either of lace and insertion, all lace.
tucked India muslin, net, or shirrings
Of organdie alternating with rows of
ribbon. Another effective method is to
add from the shoulder seams long sur
plice scarf ends laid in soft folds. Bring
these in diminuendo plaits to the waist,
knot lightly; then let the sashes fall
undraped well over the skirt front. Add
wholly new sleeves that match in ma
terial and arrangement the style of the
fresh accessories put upon the waist

They Are Scattered Throughout the

DIR. William \. Hammond. the cele-

which runs like little threads of silk,
throughout the body, are tiny little

according to DR.. Hammond, the human
heart actually thinks on account of
it. When we are frightened, the heart
almost stops beating.
How could it do it, unless it really
thought? 1t would be impossible.
The heart brains are the little gray
ganglia, and they recognize the emo
tons of JOY, or pain or fright by sending
| quick throbs and thrills through the
heart. which DR.. Hammond calls a sec
ondary brain. 1t is well known that the
ancients believed different organs of
the body to be possessed of menta! at
