A Railroad Mans story.

said an engineer the other day, was
due to a large, lazy pig that had got
on my mind. Nothing will slide train
more easily and destructively from the
rails than live pork. This particular
specimen had a habit Of burrowing
alongside the track, and it was fair
presumption that sooner or later he
would find something to interest him
between the rails and somebody would
go down the bank.
II was coming down a hill one day
at high speed and craning my neck for
a comforting sight of piggy in his &C.
customed place when. as l popped
around the curve, bright red flag as.
saulted my anxious gaze. The connec'
ton between that flag and the pig was
only bit of mental alteration on my
part, but it was very vivid. shut Of

SOME WISE DoN'Ts.

Don't cenfound hauteur with dignity
or repose with stupidity.
Don't "howl," 'roar" or explode"
To laugh heartily Is better.
Don't pose. Affectation is a bar to
respect, let alone confidence.
Don't groan over the wickedness of
the world, but mend your own.
Don't boast. The illiterate and the
self conscious are thus made manifest.
Don't use superlatives. Few things
require them, and they weaken descrip-
ton.
Don't preach unless you have prac.
ticed. Deeds are tremendously con-
vincing.
Don't think a foreigner can compre
bend you any better If you shout into
his ear.
Don't forget that politeness Is the
foster sister of diplomacy and IN es
sential tact.
Don't appraise a book at anothers
valuation. Critics are not censOrs alb
solute.-St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

When Herrinss Were Plenty.

In former days behring's were SO
abundant in Newfoundland waters that
the most wanton slaughter Of them
was permitted without any restriction
whatever. Seines were allowed to re-
tain 1000 or 1900 barrels Of the fish
until they persisted. and then the net
was freed. and the whole contents fell
to the bottom to pollute the ocean foE
miles around. When poaching smack
was captured. the behring's it had on
board were all thrown into the sea. and
frequently boats when chased resorted
to the same means to get rid of merlin
mating evidence. The fish then fetched
only so cents barrel of 500 behring's
or ten for q cent.-Cleveland Plain
Dealer.

One of the stories told by old en-
ployees in the treasury department at
Washington ia If the time when Cen
eral Rosecrans was register. The gen.
eral never smoked and knew nothing
about cigars. He determined, however,
to have a box of good cigars handy for
the benefit of friends who might drop
into the registers Office. The general
accordingly purchased box of expen-
sive cigars, put them in drawer and
forgot all about them for some time.
Then, one day, when a friend was call
ing, the general remembered the cigars
and brought them out.
II know nothing about cigars" said
Rosecrans, "but I am told that these
are very fine"
His friend lighted cigar, and look
of pain and horror instantly overspread
his face. He tried to conceal his feel
ings and pulled MAJ y y ut the cigar
for several seconds. Then Rosecrans,
noticing that he was growing pale, ask
ed what was the trouble.
General" said the visitor, II don't
want to be ungrateful, but I'm afraid
it's this cigar"
"Impossiblev' exclaimed Rosecrans
"Why, when I bought them was told
that they were the finest cigars on the
market"
"Well, general, you were deceived
The cigar tastes and smells exactly al
IL it were made of camphor."
| "Camphor!' stammered ROsecrans
looking chapfallen.. "Why, I never
thought, but perhaps camphor does in
jure a cigar" And, reaching into tn
drawer, he brought to view several gar
ments filled with camphor balls. ID
you suppose that can be the trouble 2

WHICH SPEND MOST ONDREssp
Interesting Question Up for Discussion
Between Men and Women.

The students of the Northwestern
university dental school ask an inter-
estihg question as to whether women
or men spend the greater, amount Of
money on clothing, bat ! do not know
how the information could be OBJ
tanned The popular idea, no doubt,
would be that women's dress costs
many times the amount spent by their
husbands, sons and brothers, but I
presume if the average throughout
the world, or even the United States,
were taken, thecost Of clothing Of the
two sexes would beabout the same.
While fashionable society women in
the large cities spend,large sums of
money for fine pmmage, the wives of
tie wage Farmers and the farmers
throughout fhe country make their
own dresses at aver small cost The
men folk Of thisclass Of the popnla-
ton patronize the clothing stores,
and generally pay more for their gar
ments than their wives and daughters.
AT the same timeythis is merely specs
ulation There is no competent au-
thority to consult, and there is no
means by which accurate estimate
can be made. The census throws no
light on the subject, nor do the tax
