His Bumps.

They were newly married and were
calling upon me of the friends of the
bride who had been particularly pleas
ant upon the occasion Of their wedding.
The bridegroom, apropos of nothing,
began to talk about phrenology and
told how his wife had discovered two
very prominent bumps on the back Of
his head. He was proud of then. So
was she, and she passed him around
that the host and hostess might feel
the bumps and know of their exist
ence. Then she explained:
"My book on %phrenology says that
they mean good memory and generos-
ity."
1t was evident that she was proud Of
the facts, and so was he. But the host,
being of an inquiring turn of mind,
wished to satisfy himself, so he got
down a chronological work from one
of his library shelves and after much
labor found the bumps on the chart.
Turning to the notes, he read, seriously
at first, then unsteadily. The bride be-
came suspicious, but she was game and
said:
Read it out loud. Please dor And
the host read:
These bumps are most frequently
found on cats and monkeys"
Other topics consumed the remainder
of the visit, which was brief.-New
York Sun.

swe1ls With Swell Chests.

II had occasion to examine two
brothers who had applied for policies
in our company the other day." said
the medical examiner Of a life insur-
ance company. "One was So years
old and the other was 33. They are
both unmarried and are known about
town as pretty gay boys. Usually
there is considerable attached to writ
ing policies for men who are known
as FOUNDERS but these two proved to
be perfect specimens of physical man
hood.
Il was particularly impressed by
their chest developments. They both
had the same measurement and also
the same expansion-from 80 to 43.
When l found that they had smoked
cigarettes from boyhood, l wondered
all the more at the four inch expan-
sion. Then they told me that when
they We're youngsters they used to
delight in seeing how long they could
hold their breath under water. Every
time they took a bath in the tub one
would take a deep breath, duck under,
and the other would time him with a
watch. A minute and a half, I be-
lieve, was the limit of their endurance.
They said it was all their mother could
do to get them out of the bath and
drive them to bed."-Philadelphia Rec
ord.

"Tom," said a father to his son
whose school report showed him to
have been an idle young scamp, what
have you been studying this term?"

that lay nea and laid it smartly across
his sons back.
"Don't!" cried Tom. you are hurt
ing me-"
Not at all. You have just proved
conclusively that l am not here, so I
can't be hurting you"
Before his stern parent had quite
done with him Tom felt hat there
must be after all a flaw somewhere in
his logic.-London Tit-Bits.

ii. E. T. Party.

Saturday evening at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. Hunt, in West
Extra. occurred a party given by
the G. E. T. Club. Mrs. Lille Hunt
acting as hostess.
High five and crokinole were the
games of the evening. These games
are ones that are used so much tor
the entertainment of young people,
but seems to lever grow old. Each
time that they are played there
seems to be a new char1n-a new
attraction or fascination about
these games that sheds abroad a
pleasure that beams out radiant on
the faces of the participants.
After the evening was we'll spent
and the arrival of another day was
drawing near. a dainty lunch was
served. While partaking of this
a number of papers We're read by
the members of the G. +. 7. club.
Miss Flossie McAnnich delivered
an excellent paper on the advance
ment of their club. She showed
how it had made rapid advances
since it's organization of two years
ago.
Miss Nettie Sickles read a paper
of the initiation of the members adj
mitted into the club. This ordeal
is very trying as you must pass by
sharp obstacles and you do not
know where you are going, as your
eyes are blindfolded. Then some
times to add to the discomfort of
this a lantern is thrust into your
face, which has been known to burn
the nose of II member that was
taken in.
Miss Martha Bruner read a paper
on the future of the girls of the G.
E. T. OF some the future was
prophesied to be bright and others
their way through lite was to be
dark and gloomy.
Miss Lille Hunt gave a paper on
the future years of the boys who
have attended the G. E. T. party,
which a very we'll composed.

Dies MONIES, April %, 1901.
The week brought ideal condi-
tons for progress in farm work and
for the growth of Vegetation. The
temperature was above the normal.
the average daily excess ranging
from two to eight degrees. There
was but little more than a trace of
rainfall during the working DAYS Of
the week, and on Saturday evening
light showers We're reported in vari-
Gus localities in the western and
northwestern counties. While there
is abundant moisture in the soil for
present needs a moderate amount
of rainfall would be beneficial to
prevent an e~ncrusted surface and to
promote termination of seeds and
plants.
Reports show that small grain is
coming up fairly we'll, with but lit.
tie complaint from defective seed.
Excellent progress mas been made
in blowing. sod and preparing fall
plowed fields for corn. A beginning
has been made in planting corn in
the extreme southern counties, and
with a continuance of warm wealth
er planters will be started in all
districts very near the first of Nav.
Grass is starting fairly we'll and the
pastures will be in condition to
support stock about as early as
usual. Foliage has made very rapid
growth and fruit trees are coming
INTO bloom with fine prospects.

Sale of Leyland Line.

London, May 1.-The Leyland line
deal provokes unusual discussion in the
English papers, which reveals the ex-
istence of not a little apprehension as
to the possibility of the United States
dominating the Atlantic carrying trade.
The general impression, however, is
that the transfer is connected with the
probable passage by the United States
senate of a subsidy bill. 1t is consid-
cred that the terms of the transfer are
so profitable to the Leyland people that
there could be no question of their
acceptance and that other shipping
companies would gladly sell on the
same terms.
