Professor Comstock of Cornell In
speaking to his class on the trials of
scientists told this authentic tale of the
experience of a professor of invertebrate
zoology in a sister institution, which
had better be left nameless
TrichinR in pork, the cause of the
frightful disease trichinosis in human
consumers, give a peculiar appearance
to meat, which is studded with little
cysts. 1t is then known TO the trade as
''measly pork. - The learned scientist,
wishing some for study, went to the
butcher and asked if he ever got any
measly pork.
Sometimes, said the butcher eau
tiously, "but | always throw it away !"
"Well, " said the professor, 1.-The next
time you have any wish you'd send
me up some. meaning, of course, 10 his
laboratory.
The butcher stared at him, hut said
he would. Three weeks passed, when
the professor, growing impatient, again
dropped in.
Haven't you found any measly pork
yet?'
why, yes, said the butcher "I
sent up two pounds week ago.
A sickly grin broke over the pro-
fessor's face
"Where did you send it?" said he.
why, to your house, of course, " said
the butcher. - Kansas City Times.

SHOUTING FOR BOTH SIDES.

The war in the transvaal will last
longer than our Spanish war, though
ultimately the Beers will be beaten
and the African republic wiped out.
Just now the Dutchman has the best
of the fight. The victory the British
achieved week ago was simply a
demonstration of the fact that the
machine gun is better than a com
mon rifle. The latest news indi-
Gates that the Beers have the British
bottled up at Ladysmith.
Not since the Crimean war have
the Britons stood up in a fight
against white men until that battle
with the Beers at Glencoe the other
day. Reading an account of the en-
gagement it must have been as ex-
citing as the battle of Inkerman.
The charge up the hill is as thrilling
as the ride to death of the six hun
dred at Balaklava. In some way it
makes an American feel that he is
proud to speak the English lang
uage and tell of the recent affair at
Glencoe, although down at the bot
tom of his heart the Boer has his
ympathy.-Livingston Enterprise.

Jerry's Version of II.

prominent Detroit woman with a
great interest in juvenile mission work
has this excellent anecdote to tell
One of her classes il. a certain mis-
sion is composed of little street children
to the number of 20 or more whose
ages range from 3 t. g. Most of the
scholars are boys, though now and then
one notices the pinched face of little
daughter of poverty in the ranks.
The other day the lesson was on the
peculiarities of English. Words that
are pronounced alike and spelled differ
emily and words that are pronounced
differently but spelled alike were dis.
cussed at length. She explained the diff
ference between lead the metal and
lead the verb, and the children grasped
the point instantly. Then she took the
two words week and "weak " She
explained the difference in the meaning
and use to the tots, and then called mp
little fellow, aged >, to use the word
weak in phrase. The little fellow
thought moment, then answered "a
weak old woman. The teacher nodded
her approval, and smiled into the eyes
upturned to hers.
"Now, Jerry Ryan" she said, turn
ing to another little hoy, "you take the
word week and use it in a phrase. -
Jerry thought a minute, and then,
he. too, replied "a week old baby. -

Once Was Enough,

This is one Of General Miles stories
In the Confederate army, Longstreet' s

o'clock in the morning, when every
one was worn ont, a Georgia regiment

MAILS AT NEIHART.

Receiving only three mails week
at Neihart works considerable hard
ship upon our people, and not the
least sufferer by reasoh of this slug
gish condition is the postmaster.
On Monday, big mail day, there ar
rive seven or eight large sacks of
mail which requires one hour and a
quarter to one hour and half to
handle. This is three days mail
iammed into one.
1t is exceedingly refreshing for
the clerical force at the postoffice
when overwhelmed with this batch
of mail, to hear some idle prattler of
the outside throng remark: ''Gra-
cious met 1t takes them long
WHILE" 81 wonder how much long
er we will have to wait" II do
wish they would hurry" and many
other remarks just as inspiring and
full of gumption.
A few figures, derived from care
full estimates and actual counts COW
ering a month of mail receipts show
that the average Monday mail into
Neihart brings 2,200 to 2,40O sepa-
rate pieces of mail, counting each
letter, paper or parcel separate
piece. The Wednesday and Fri
day mails bring from 1,50O to 1900
separate pieces each day. These
have to be separated and distributed
where they can be readily found
when called for, and all the work of
distribution is done in from 40 to so
minutes while gang of irresponsi-
BILE simpletons pack the outside Of
fee, and shout, and whistle, and re-
mark their profound remarks in the
above strain. And then when
mistake occurs the public at once
notifies the department, in order to
attract more attention, and so ex
tend the radius of their troubling
influence.

NATIONAL CHIVALRY.

The Parliament of the Orange
Free State, in solemn and deliberate
assembly, by unanimous vcte, has
passed resolution which pledges
the microscopic republic to make
common cause with its neighbor. 1t
is in effect declared that if the Brit
ish Goliath attacks South African in
dependence two Davids will 90 out
to meet the giant. This is not the
suddenly-arrived decision of an
Ignorant, hysterical people. The
traditional phlegm and impassiveness
of the Dutch character have been in
tensifed rather than diminished by
the experiences in South Africa
The chivalry of the act arises not
from impulse, but from profound
conviction of right. We thought it
a fine thing, and it was, when we
plunged into war for the salvation
of Cuba, but it is as we'll known that
we ran no real risk. The Orange
Free State, by its intrepidly romantic
act, throws everything into the haz-
ard, fully aware that, according to
every human probability, it will lose.
Not since the Plataeans sent their
two regiments to the assistance of
the Athenians before the battle of
Marathon, while the remainder of
Greece was paralyzed with fear and
sought excuses for parleying with
the Persian invading host, has there
been an example Of national chivalry
equal to that now presented by this
diminutve Boer republic.-Des
Moines Leader.

A WORTHY TRIBUTE.

David Davis, the great Illinois
statesman once said: "Each year
every local paper gives from $500 to
$1,000 year in free liners for the
benefit of the community in which it
is located. No agency can or will
do this. The editor in proportion to
his means does more for his town
than any other man, and with all
fairness, man with man, he should be
supported, not because you like him,
or admire his writing, but because a
local newspaper is the best adver-
tisement community can make.
1t may not be crowded with great
thoughts, but financially it is more
of benefit than both preacher and
teacher. Today the editors of local
papers do more work for less pay
than any other men ON earth. Pa
tronize your local paper not as char
ity but as an investment.
