A Youthful Promoter.

A horseman had an amusing expert
ence near the speedway a few days
ago. says the New York Times. He
called to an idle newsboy to hold his
horse while he made call on a client
On leaving the house he was surprised
to see another boy in charge of the
horse. So he asked:
SLOWS this? You are not the boy
left my horse with
mo. sir. l jist speleilated and bought
him of the other boy for 10 cents. He
said as how you were only worth a
nickel, and 1 says you We're good for
a quarter. See?"
The boy got the quarter and went
around the corner, where the first boy
was waiting under an open window in
the home of the horseman's friend.
That's the way ter work the swells,"
said the young Spectator to his COM
panion. EFF you had staid, he woulder
coughed up a dime. The bluff made
him ershamed to hand over less than
two bits. You gets II cents, and I
keep the extry cent for permotin' dis

Her Mind Needed a Rest.

He was only a ballroom boarder
perhaps, and still he had some rights
that a chambermaid at 81 a week and
found was bound to respect, says the
Washington Star. He had been wait
ing in the debris of a nights rest for
the young chamber lady to come
around and straighten things up, but
up to 1920 she had not appeared, and
as it was Sunday morning and he had
a day in he rather felt that he would
like to see things in some kind Of
shapeliness, so he went boldly out into
the hall where she was chatting pleas
antly with the elevator boy, and adj
dressed her.
when are you going to fix my
room?" he inquired in a tone showing
slight traces of irritation, but not I'M
pardonably rude.
"Oh, / don't know" she responded,
with a naughty toss of her head: "I
haven't made UP my mind yet"
This was more than he could endure.
Jaw. your mind be darned," he
growled; you make up my bed and let
your mind rest awhile"

Spain and in the Philippine Islands.
This is about 20 per cent. of the total

Prof. Schneider of the Northwestern
University does not think civilization
is going ahead very fast in the matter
OF dress. The wearing of birds and
feathers on their hats by women, he
says, is merely a continuance of the
savage custom of decking the head
with horns, bearskins and eagle feath-
ers, while the fur boas are survivals
from the skin-wearing age. The white,
stiff shirt fronts had their origin in
the bronze breast plates of the earlier
Romans, he says, and the decolette
toilet is a reminder of the time when
there wasn't anything much to be
worn.

A witchcraft scare is agtating the
mining districts about wilkesbarre,
Pa. For the last few weeks, it is alleged,
bread will not rise in the pans, keys
will not fit in their locks, doors stick
fast in their jambs, the cooking stoves
smoke horribly, the water in the wells
becomes muddy, oil in lamps will not
burn without suffering, and other
queer things of the kind have been
noticed. All of the trouble has been
attributed to a witch" known as
BLACK Annie" and the miners declare
they will give her coat of tar and
feathers, ride her on a rail and shoot
her picture with silver bullets as soon
as they can catch her. She is now
hiding in the woods in fear of her life.

The gold and silver partisans in
Montana are once more heels over head
into bitter campaign in defense of
their favorite metals. The dome of the
new Capitol is nearing completion, and
the gold men are a unit in holding that
nothing but the yellow metal should
cover the giant pepper-box that tops
the State House. The silver men are
equally insistent that the white metal
shall cover the copper of the roof. in
order that the world may know that
Montana remains true on the free sill
yer question. They admit that gold
would withstand the elements better,
but claim that two coats of silver
would outlast one of gold. at no greater
cost, and that by the use of silver Mon
tsna would not stultify herself before
the world. The fight has grown almost
as strenuous as was the gold and silver
fight in the campaign of 1896.

fact the 'single shot" idea is the only
practical one and if our citizens are so
