Mrs. Bolivar heaved a deep sigh.
Before we were married., she said,
"you promised me that my slightest
wish would be your law"
"Did II" said Mr.. Bolivar, in a tone
of surprise.

''that you would give up the club and
not play poker any more"
"Did I, reallyr"

The woman who speaks her mind
freely ON all occasions had been telling
the sad eyed stranger to whom she had
been introduced what she thought of
Mormonism. Her remarks were elo-
quent and acrimonious. She had a flow
of language which never failed and was
fortified with facts which could not be
refuted. He listened patiently till she
had finished and then said meekly,
eyes, madam I'm a Mormon myself.

though her face REDEEMED a little. "a
man ought to be satisfied with marry
ing one woman to wait on him and be
~browbeaten by him."

sponded reproachfully.

Il agree with you perfectly, madam. >
Hal You admit it,.
"Yes'm; no man ought to have two

ought to stick to odd numbers and have
three, five or seven. 1t obviates the ne

of a family dispute it provides for 6

A JOinted Snake.

MI. George D. Pemberton of Spott-
~sylvania, Va, reports the following
"While walking around my farm I
came across a copper colored snake
about 2H feet long. l struck the rep
tile a blow on the head with a stick,
and, to my surprise, the sake fell apart
in four pieces. Near by was a hole, and
into this the head went, and, although
l worked for half an hour trying to get
it, l failed. l then examined the body,
which was as hard as if had been frozen,
and, as far as l could discover. it was
entirely lifeless. Thinking it was a
jointed snake, l left the pieces of the
body on the ground and went to the
house. Shortly afterward l returned,
but the portion of the body that had
left disappeared and no trace of it could
be found. "-Cincinnati Enquirer.

Gladstone and Moses,

A correspondent of The British
Weekly tells the following story rela-
tive to Mr.. Gladstone: 81 was driving
n autumn evening in a conveyance
which in those days used to run from
Lamlash to Kings Gross (Island Of
Arran) when for any reason the late
boat did not go round to Whiting bay.
Sitting opposite me were two men who
appeared to belong to the Paisley weav
er class, and true to the traditions Of
that class they were busily discussing
politics. Presently one of them said,
with much emphasis, There hasna been
a lawgiver equal to Mr.. Gladstone since
the days O. Moses 'Mosesl' retorted
the other. Moses got the law glen tao
him frae the Lord, but Mr.. Gladstone

Queer Origin of a Hotel.

They say that the best hotel in Texas
is to be found at Bolton, a town on the
Santa Fe road and is kept by ''seven
sanctitied sisters, " as the proprietors
are popularity called. Several years ago
a oma in the place and her husband
quarreled over the best way of ex-
pounding the Scriptures TO a Sunday
school class and were so stubborn that
they separated and were finally di-
vorced.
This family controversy was taken
up by the town, which was soon dis
tinctly divided between the adherents
of the husband and the adherents of the
wife. The result was a large crop of di-
vorces, and seven h~usbandless women,
including the original cause of the COM
motion, joined together and rented the
town hotel. One of them did the cook
ing, another was parlor maid, a third
made up the beds, and so they divided
the work among them and ran the es-
