The stage was rolling along the can
yon trail when suddenly the horses
reared back on their launches as n
lone highwayman with Winchester
appeared on the scene.
"Step out of the hearse, gentlemen,
and hands up!' he ordered.
One by one they climbed out. with
elevated hands.
The hlghwGyman relieved the party
and several times was forced to remind
one nervous little man to keep his hand
from his pocket.
"What's the matter with your" he
finally roared "You make another
move like that. and III pump the slugs
in you!'
please let me-" pleaded the little
man as his hand again slid toward his
pocket.
please let you" roared the despera-
do. Please let you perforate me?
You're imposing on my generosity. SON
ny. Look OUT Look out. Keep your
nit away from that pocket or by the
Eternal
"But IL won't hurt your" protested
the little man. 1T won't hurt you at
all! Stand just as you are now and
keep your rifle leveled. There! That's
it,"
And while the highwayman was re-
covering from his astonishment the lii.
tie man had flashed his kodak and
snapped the on.-lndianapolis Sun.

Animals That Bloom.

Anemones. sponges. the sea cucum-
bers and certain other growths which
bloom and apparently behave in all
respects like plants are really animals.
The petals of the anemone, resem-
bling those of a chrysanthemum. are
really tentaclas TO catch food and put 1t
into the hollow tube which forms the
stomach. where il Is digested. The
sea cucumber has flattened body. 1t
occasionally moves al snaiPs pace
over the mud or sand. digging its pet
ais. or arms. into the sludge for food,
TO obtain which il swallows a fair
proportion of mud. 1t has power TO
sting and so keeps away its enemies.
The sea lily so exactly resembles the
common lily that il is difficult TO real
ize that il is an animal and belongs to
the starfish family. 1t has a stalk two
feet long with disk for body. The
tcntacles close round the disk. which
has a mouth. and completes the de-
ceptive likeness. They are the oldest
form OF animal life on earth. and their
fossils are called "stone lilies"
These creatures were believed 10 be
plants and many people still refuse to
believe otherwise.

Guarding Her Teeth.

1t is easy to misunderstood and easy
to be misunderstood. and sometimes,
happily, ii is easy TO give and to accept
an explanation.
Il did think would never come TO
see you again." said cousin of the
prominent society woman who had
come TO the country TO visit her and
was about To start homeward. IT'S
kind of you To ask me. of course, but
remember that when | was at your
house in the city two years ago. you
did not seem glad to see me. You were
kind and hospitable. of course. but !
remember you did not smile once dur
ing the entire two weeks Of my stay"
To her establishment. her city cousin
burst into Il fit of laughter.
Maria" she said. "just before you
came | had the misfortune to break the
porcelain crown from one of my new
front teeth, and as my dentist was out
of town on his vacation had to wait
for his return. didn't dare to smile
when any one was looking at me. for
fear of showing the CHASTITY metallic
back to which the porcelain had been
attached. 1t was a strain. Maria. but
| was equal to it, and | did not want to
have TO explain"
And her smile. now without a me-
chanical Jaw. REINFORCED the renewed
invitation. Youths Companion.

One Way of Getting Even.

"There is a fellow In our office who is
a chronic borrower" said young man
employed in a large Market street es-
tablishment recently. He got into
nearly everybody in the place before
we all made up our minds to stop lend
ing He has owed me 50 for nearly
year. but I'm nearly square. although
he has never paid me penny of 1t.
That sounds queer. but 1t is the truth.
I'll tell Won how I've worked it.
"Every once In awhile one of the fell
lows viii say. I'm going TO make So
and-so give me what be owes me next
pay day or know the reason why
That's my chance. and casually re-
mark. IN bet you quarter you don't
get it Usually the fellow takes me
up. and when pay day comes he loses
his bet for So-aud.So never pays I'm
snail bets of quarters AMI dimes,
uncheons aud cigars ! have nearly GOT
back the amount ! originally loaned to
the chronic borrower. : Philadelphia

They Eat Themselves.

From various causes. such as anger
and fear many animals eat their own
flesh Rats. when caught in a trap by
the leg. will gnaw off the captured
member. and mice in captivity have
been known 10 bite of their tails. But
there are some creatures which go
much further and actually eat parts Of
themselves If left for too long period
without food.
A hyena belonging to menagerie
was kept by the proprietor without
food in order TO tame it. One morning
he was Mortified TO find that the fero-
cious creature had actually eaten part
of its own leg
An eagle i'm the zoo a few years ago
was noted for the fact that it would
now and then pick pieces of flesh out
of it's own legs and eat them.
Certain caterpilars and toads devour
their cast off skin. This may be due
to fear. but it looks like economy.
There is just trace OF this charac-
teristic in human beings. Children
when in rage sometimes bite their own
hands and arms, although it must be
admitted that they desist when it be-
gins TO hurt.

Tough. The army regulations strictly
enjoln that be must always wear his

A certain Lieutenant Schmidt. who
was engaged IN some lively adventure
or other. dressed up as civilian and
was having altogether an enjoyable
time until, on turning a corner, he un-
expectedly met his colonel.
The lieutenant did not. however lose
his presence OF mind. He yrctenaed
that he had never seen his colonel be-
fore and In changed voice asked
"Can you tell me, sir, where Lieuten-
ant Schmidt lives? ! am his brother
from the country and am paying him a
little visit, but | happen just now 10
have lost my way"
The colonel quietly gave the desired
information. and Lieutenant Schmidt,
congratulating himself on his lucky es-
cape, hurried home and put on his uni
form with all possible speed.
He thought. of course. that he had
taken in his superior officer, but such
an idea was rudely dispelled when on
the next day he met his colonel, and
the latter said:
Lieutenant Schmidt. If your brother
from the country pays you another Wis
it I'll have him placed in close confine-
ment for 30 days"

Love and Thrift.

The late Professor Shuttleworth of
London was particularly fond of telling
how when he once acted as locum
tenens in Deyonshire. he had TO pro-
claim the banns of marriage of a
young yolel and a village maid. A
fortnight later the young swain called
at the professors lodgings
"You put up the banns for me-" he
said.
Eyes. remember" replied Mr..
Shuttleworth.
We'll" inquired the yokel. "has 1t
got to go onT
what do you mean?' asked the pro-
fessor. Are you tired of the girl?"
NO" was the unexpected answer.
"but like her sister better"
ooh. if the original girl doesn't mind.
you can marry her sister"
But should | have to be called
againY'
Certainly. that's necessary" an
swered Mr.. Shuttleworth.
"But should have TO pay again|

after reflection. Then I'll let 1t re-
