a Straight Answer.

Judge Joseph Burlington Of the United
States district court heard arguments for
new trial in case some time ago, but
took his time to decide the case, says the
Pittsburg Chronicle Telegraph The at
torneys became somewhat impatient and
one day one of them said to the judge:
Judge. are you going to give us new
trial in that case we argued some time
ago?'
That reminds me-" said the judge, "of
when l was boy. There was very in
quisitive man in our town, and he per-
sistently annoyed strangers who came to
town by trying to find out their business.
One day a stranger arrived, and, sure
enough, old Smith said: Say, stranger,
will you mind telling me what you are
doing in our town.?
1.-The stranger looked at him and said:
Can you keep secret!
Sure said Smith.

and walked away"
The attorney thought moment and
then said: ''Well, that is the politest way
to tell me to mind my own business that
l ever heard.''

What the Mouth Shows.

A certain philosopher declares that a
woman is known by her mouth, says the
London Outlook, not by the words that
issue therefrom, but by the shape and
c.;ior of the lips and the lines and dim
pies that gather about this important
feature.
He is supported in his theory by physi-
ognomists, who all endeavor to impress
us with the fact that no woman with the
small, red-lipped, ''Cupidbow'' mouth,
so praised in song and story, was ever
intellectual or generous of heart. He
says further that lit is consoling to those
whose mouths are not in accordance
with the lines of beauty laid down by the
poets to be told that wide. straight
mouth, with strong, white teeth denotes
the woman of superior intelligence, gooil-
ness Of heart, strength of mind and a
thousand and one other sterling qualities
which we all like to think we possess"
1t is the fashion at present for women
to hold their lips very slightly apart
This is supposed to give that innocent.
wistful, wondering look which was the
peculiar property of the heroines of old
fashioned novels. but which bicycle rid
ing and the kindred modern am,sements
have caused to vanish. 1t is difficult for
the thin-lipped, determined woman to
acquire this trick, but perseverance
works wonders.

YOUNG FOLKS COLUMN.

Little Boys Troubles,

Little Boys Troubles.
Before they had arithmetic,
Or telescopes. or chalk,
Or blackboards, maps and copyb0oks-
When they could only talk;
Before Columbus came to show
The world geography,
What did they teach the little boys
Who went to school like me:
There wasn't any grammar then,
They couldn't read or spell,
For books were not invented yet
l think twas just as well.
There were not any rows Of dates,
Or laws, or wars, or kings,
Or generals, or victories,
Or any of those things.
There couldn't be much to learn;
There wasn't much to know,
Twas nice to be a boy
Ten thousand years ago.
For history had not begun,
The world was very new,
The children had to do.
Now, always there is more to LEARN
How history does grow!
And every day they find new things
They think they ought to know.
And if it must 90 on like this
I'm glad l live today,
For boys ter thousand years from now
Will not have time to play.

Discipline I f Matrimony.

The first year of married life may be
compared with the first attempts of n
baby to walk warily and swiftly, says
Il woman of the world. BY stumbling
and erbalancng itself does the in
FAINT learn how he may locomote with
safety to himself and without treading
on the toes of his companions.
The angles Of our characters, we be-
ing usually agrrrably unconscious of
them, become unplrasantly revealed to
us because they get in the way of our
partner for life. And he whom we con-
Slder faultlesS proves to have angles as
well. Each has to learn the other all
over again in the intimacy Of marriage
Matrimony is a splendid institution for
the elimination of self-will. By the time
those angles above referred to have be-
come rounded and inaggrcssive. the ma
ture of their owner has undergone a
change of which he or she, may possibly
be unaware. All the same, it is in the
nature Of discipline, and discipline is not
invariably pleasant
When true love helps in the process
it may be comparatively painless The
love acts as an anaesthetic; or. to vary
the simile, love is as the skilled den
fist. who minimizes the pain of his op-
cratiOnS.
When there is marriage without love
the discipline of adjusting the two ma
lures to each other and to the necessi-
ties of double existence may be likened
to the ullskilled operator, who gives his
patients the maximum of pain with the
minimum of benefit.

Carries cheeks burned She had never

most sincerely that she had taken her

She began to see now into what straits
her curiosity might lead her. =
She heard the whole plan of the baby

talked continuously while they worked
and she became very much interested in
the DC tails, in spite of the guilty feeling
in her breast. But after a time she be-
gan to grow sleepy and to feel very UNI

however, for fear of being heard, and
she wished the boys would 90 downstairs
and give her a chance to get out.
But soon the sound of their voices
seemed to grow fainter and, without be-
ing conscious of it, she slipped into the
land of dreams. -
When she awokc the garnet was dark
and silent. She did not know at first
where she was, but when she put out her
hand and touched the box she remem-
that there might be spiders and mice I'M

She CROPPED her way to the garnet door
and felt around until she got her hand

began to poultl OH the door with both
fists, and to scream 1T the top of her
voice.
1t seemed long. time before she heard
steps on the garnet stairs, and she was
sobbing bitterly when, at last the door
was opened, and she fell into her moth
er's arms with loud cry.
"Why, Carrie, how did you happen to

Mrs. Brooks. We thought you were at

The Mule in Peace and in War.

Nobody ever heard of Georgia mule
stampeding. He will finch and dodge,
and go through other performances, but
he never runs from anything. He has
a battery of his own as efficient at close
range as a Maxim or a Gatling gun, and
on this he depends absolutely. More
over, he never wastes his ammunition
nor misses lis aim.
Speaking, therefore, in behalf Of the
Southern-bred mule generally, and the
Georgia-raised mule particularly, we
could wish that the British commander,
in attributing the capture of two of his
regiments to stampeding mules, had in
Guided brief biography of the mules in
question, in order that full justice may
be done. So far as our observation and
experience 60, neither the music of many
bands nor the war of artillery have any
effect on the Georgia mule. He might
object to a snowy uniform, or to the too
gaudy t:appings with which vain men
deck themselves, but he does not make
his objection known by stampeding. On
the contrary, he stands his ground and
makes his influence felt in other ways

Humor Often Fatal to Happiness.

First of all, let it be realized that hui
NOR is not Il quality or an attribute of
one Sex more than the other. Hnmor is
scXlcsS.
Probably more people are born without
than with it,, but humor itself differs not
own quality may differ.
HumOr is modified or accentuatpd by
character, and it may be asserted that
women are more frequently born with
the sense of humOr, whereas men attain
to it afterward, says the Philadelphia
Times.
Many women are natural humorists
their humor, if less cultivated, is per
hapS more spontaneous. more buOyant,
and normally more subtle.
"A woman certainly possesses as great
Il sense OF humor as man. but it is an
open question whether she is the happier
for it. With true humor she must pos
sess the critical naturc-the laugh
through the sob, but the sob that spoils
She wants to love Loyalty. admire blind
ly, like her unhumorous sisters, but. alas.
she cannot help noticing the absurd GEES
ture. the trick, the cough. the way of
holding tcacuD or a knife and fork
something equally trivial which provokes
the sense of humOr and turns the pas
sionate love, if it continues to be love at
full, but not blind.
On the other hand, this sense of humor
brlghtens the unromantic moments of
life. There is a smile and Il jest even
IN an hour of agony If something strikes
the quick fancy.
Woman's humor can cnliven her own
life and can help to spoil it, also: it can
make her feared and admired, but it can
never make her loved. Therefore, hui
morous women look on it as Il dangerous
gift, but know that, rightly managed, it
can be fascination all the same
A man does not always appreciate fem
mime h,lmor, but when he finds it in the
woman he loves she possesses for him an
eXhauStlesS fascination.
And the woman who loves well will
often find a secret source of amusement
i'll concealing her sense of humor or in
putting it aside for expression at some
eXpedient time.
| admit that women who have not
what may be called the conventional
sense of humor can be very disappointing
to men; they sometimes fail to see the
fun of some mild joke. But if only those
men could see inside the minds they are
inveighing against as absolutely wanting
in humor-as Scotch, as dense-I think
they would sometimes be SURPRISED at
their own position as standing jokes in
those 'dcnse feminine minds"

Wom en'A-e Jailur at Shopping.

ut is a singular thing that with the
amount of shopping done by women they
should continue to shop 50 badly badly,
[ mean, in the sense of shopping with an
absolute lack of SYSTEM" writes Edward
Box in the Ladies' Home journal. Here
and there we meet a woman to whom
God seems to have given logical mind
which she applies to her shopping. But
as general thing the assertion that
women shop with an utter lack of system
is unfortunately all too easy of proof.
And curiously enough, it is not alone
those behind the counter who suffer, for
the women themselves make their shop
