The Company Stood 1t.

On one of the trolley lines leading to
well known amusement park they
have a system whereby the cars are
stopped at certain points to allow uni
formed inspectors to count the pas
sengers, presumably as check on the
conductors. Among the passengers on
the car was well dressed young fel
low with a penchant for cracking
jokes at other peoples expense. When
the car stopped for the count up, he
had lot of fun thrusting jibes at the
inspector the conductor and the troll
ley company people in general Final
ly, just as the car was about to re-
sumo its journey, he called out:
Say, Mister Inspector, you missed
me-"
The inspector turned and looked the
young fellow over very carefully.
"Humphv' he retorted. II guess the
company can stand it. I didn't miss
much"
Then everybody laughed, the young
fellow got red in the face, the motor
man turned on the current, and the
car sped onward.-Philadelp In

Unyarfed Diet,

An amusing story is told Of an ole
time soldier who loved liquor better
than food, and was bound to have his
diet according to his taste. 1t was In
the days when British soldiers pro
vided themselves with rations out OF
their pay. To insure the proper feed.
ing Of the men a strict inspection of
the daily mess was instituted. 1t was
found that unless this was done many
soldiers would go without meat in or
der that they might have money to buy
lgrog
Donald loved whisky, and could live
very well on oatmeal. Therefore he
eschewed butchers meat. But at the
daily mess it was essential that he
should have meat before him.
For long time Donald saved his
money, and yet, to all appearance,
lived up to the requirements. When
the officer went his round Donald had
his mess before him. 1t was tripe,
tripe, and tripe again for change.
''Do you always eat tripe" asked the
inspecting officer, becoming little sus-
picious.
always, your honor" replied Don
aid.
The officer stuck fork into the dish
before him.
"Well, Donald" he remarked, II new
er before saw tripe with buttons on
it."
The meat proved to be a slice from a
pair of leather breeches.-Youth's Com

Dear Sir: Acknowledging the receipt Of

vised that this department has never car
red out any extended tests to establish
the relative merits OF broken limestone
and silicious gravel for concrete In the
practice of the engineer department pref
ercnce is given to brokon granite. trap
and other silicious rocks over broken lime
stone, mainly on account OF the greater
strength and durability Of the former
Gravel is also largely used either alone or
with broken stone and has given excellent
results. In this connection gravel is now
used almost exclusively for concrete pave
ments and sidewalks in the city Of WASH
