Announcement.

The Evangelical people had planed for
meeting in November but finding it
would conflict with the meetings at the
NJ. E. church. their meeting was with
drawn and set for January 9th. Mrs
A. E. Ash, of Nebraska, had been en-
ployed and it was hoped that her services
might be secured for the latter date but
to their disappointment she was unable
to assist at the time desired, compelling
them to look elsewhere for help. The
services of Rev. G. w. McCrasken has
been secured for the above date. The
meetings will probably be of some dura-
ton. Rev. McCrasken is a rare gospel
preacher presenting the word in SIM
plicity, appealing TO the hearts and con
science Of men and women. 1t is hoped
the people Of Audubon and vicinity will
avail themselves of the benefits OF the
meeting. The Evangelical people are
still holding forth at Graves school house
A number have already accepted the
better life, others are seriously contem-
plating this all important question. 1t
is hoped the meetings will result in doing
much good in the ueighborhood.

He was a wag and was passing a
large Diapers shop in Manchester.
There, drawn up, were three or four
vehicles, and among them was a closed
brougham with the driver fast asleep
on the box. Evidently the mistress
was inside the shop. without a word
the wag stole quickly up and, opening
the carriage door, carefully slammed 1t
to. In an instant the coachman
Strengthened himself up and gazed up
the street as If he had never seen any
thing more interesting to look at In his
life. Then he stole a look over his
shoulder and saw the wag standing,
hat In hand, apparently conversing
with some one inside the carriage.
THANK you, yes. Good morning."
said the practical joker and bowed
himself gracefully away from the door,
turning as he did so to look at the
coachman and say, Homer
Eyes. sir! Tch! Get up!" and away
went the brougham home"
Where that 'home" was, who the
mistress of the. carriage was or what
she did or said when she came out Of
the shop or what the coachman did or
said when he stopped at the door Of
"home" and found the carriage empty
all that only the coachman and the
lady know.-London Tit-Bits.

New Old Jokes.

English journalist and special CORE
spondent.
II doubt there being one very grave
ly," he answers and tells two anec-
dotes to support this skepticism.
An intelligent Greek who acted as
Mr.. Sala's guide while visiting Athens
related to him as modern Greek Joe
Millerism the story Of lawsuit. A
deaf plaintiff sued a deafer defendant
before the deafest Judge in all Greece.
The plaintiff claimed so many hundred
drachmas for rent that was due. The
defendant pleaded that he never
ground his corn at night. The judge in
giving Judgment observed: well, she's
your mother, after all. You must keep
her between you"

Mr.. Sala, this apparently up to date
triad of ludicrous non sequiturs In a
collection of ancient Greek epigrams."
There used to be told story of Sher-
idan Knowles, the dramatist, who was
a first rate hand at Irish bulls, meeting
one Of twin brothers and asking him,
(Which of We is the otherT
Mr.. Sala compares this with the sto1
ry of that very ancient Jester, HER
ocles:
"Of twins, one died. Skolastikos,
meeting the survivor, asked him, Was

A Clever Blind Man.

The New Orleans Times-Democrat
tells of a blind man In a southern city
who goes to the postoffice every day
carrying small, light riding whip,
which he holds slightly inclined to the
front, with the tip just touching the
pavement. His sense Of touch has be-
come so delicate that the whip is al
most an artificial eye. When the point
encounters anything, he makes a few
swift passes over the surface and gen.
orally determines the exact character
of the obstacle. 1t is done so quickly
and deity as to attract no attention,
and few passers have the least suspi-
cion of the old mans infirmity. When
he reaches the postoffice, he turns un-
hesltatingly, mounts the middle stairs,
walks over to the lock boxes and with
out any feeling around thrusts key
into the right aperture.

He Crushed the HeckIers.

The man who asks questions and in
sists ON their being answered is a ia
millar presence at all party meetings.
err is not allowed to disregard him. II
a statement is disputed, it is the ora
tors place to make it good. Any men,
Der of the audience may rise to his
feet and shout out a contradiction
whenever lie feels like it, and by the
custom of English public life the
speaker is expected to make some re-
ply on the spot.
Mr.. Chamberlain was always dan
gerous man to cross in debate, but the
personal feeling against him was so
bitter for years after his withdrawal
from the ranks of the separatists that
many an unhappy man was driven to
tilt against his shield. 1t was delicious
to watch Mr.. Chamberlain's handling
of the situation. He would pause when
the interruption grew serious and give
the heckler chance to make himself
well heard. Now If you will allow
me l will ask that gentleman to get
upon a chair that we may all have the
pleasure of seeing him." A dozen anx-
ious hands would hoist the objector in
to unwelcome prominence. Now,
SIR" came the clear, passionless voice,
will you kindly speak up? l should
be sorry If any one missed what you
have to say"
The heckler, now quite unnerved,
would stammer out something, and
Mr.. Chamberlain, listening with ma
licious smile, would quietly readjust
his eyeglass and, turning to the au-
dlence, fling out a reply-cool, cutting
and decisive.-Sydney Brooks in Har-
per's Magazine.

What TIPS Do.


A man who lives on an up town
street where the houses cost from $685.
600 up was surprised not long ago by
seeing a man known to all New York
ers who patronize a well known res
taurant coming from Il house several
doors below him with an air Of proprie-
torship This restaurant employee
stood on the sidewalk for few mo-
ments and gaZed admiringly at his
house and then at its respectable
neighbors. For many years he has
been connected with certain New
York restaurant as an attendant, and
his fees have been generous. He knew
all its patrons by name, and his polite
ness and eagerness to render service
have made him well liked. Wondering
IL this restaurant attendant, whom he
knew only by his first name, could by
any possibility have rented house on
that street, the old resident came out to
satisfy his curiosity.
Hello" he said. What are you do
ing up here|
Good morning, Mr.. Blank" said the
restaurant attendant. How do you
like my new house? 1 have just
bought it because think that my fam
lily will like this neighborhood. You
are perhaps aware that my tips have
been generous for many years, and I
can now afford to live In this house
very easily"
His questioner had no objection to
him as a neighbor, and he congratulate
ed the restaurant attendant on his
prosperity. The house had actually
been bought by tips, for its owners
salary probably averaged about SIS a
week.-New York Sun.
