He Knew All About Il.

A delightfully."- funny story comes
across the water from Paris concern
ing . well-known public man. who
was recently presented by Soudan-
ese potentate with the Labaksi Tapo
Order Of Merit. The recipient. any
ious to display the decoration at the
earliest opportunity. applied at once
to the ministry for permission to wear
it While readily granting the permis-
sion, the minister inquired. with the
ghost of a smile:
DO you know what the order is
like?"
Certainly" replied the delighted ap-
plicant. 'it is a beautiful gold ring
and hanging from it small red en-
amel pipe of peace. l should like to
wear it."
"Of course, you may wear it. but,
according to law, you have to wear
it as 1t is worn by the natives of
Africa"
"And how might that be-"
why, with the ring through the
nose"

order has not been heard Of since.

The Harvest Sono.

It's. sing a song of harvest in the sur
light and the dew.
Where the world is like a picture meath
a living sky of blue;
a song that echoes sweet,
Till you hear the worlds heart beat
In the thrilling air around you, and
the grasses at your feet.
It's sing song of harvest: the summer
days were long.
But they led to fair fruition where tho
harvest is a song:
a song whose music fills
All the valleys and the hills
That wrinkles in the sunlight and rip
pies in the rllls
It's sing a song of harvest: let the mer-
ry echoes rise
An answer to earths sorrows, a solacs
for its sighs:
Earth's riches reaped and stored
Tolls welcome and reward;
Love and toll have made the harvest,
and love of life is lord!

BUT THE HORNETS ESCAPED.
Disastrous Attempt to Smoke Them
Out of a Barn.


Ames Young of Sterling, Wayne
county, took load of hay to Scranton
the other day and sold it. When he
went to unload 1t at the barn of the
man who bought it he found a big
hornets nest hanging to beam in
the NOW.
To render the occupants of the nest
harmless some sulphur was placed In
a pail, set on fire, and held under the
nest SO the fumes would suffocate the
hornets. The pail was held too close.
the nest caught fire and dropped into
the pail.
The hornets began to swarm out
and the hired man who held the pail
chucked it, nest and all, out of the
NOW window. 1t fell on the load Of
hay, which caught fire. Young had
time to get his horses unlocked and
out of the way, but the hay and
wagon and part of the barn were con.
sumed. The hornets escaped.-New

The Company's LOGIC.

aseh amusing extract from a Belgian
paler gives the following incident:
woman whose husband had lost
ms life In railway accident received
from the company ten thousand francs
by way of compensation. Shortly
after she heard that a traveller who
had lost leg had been paid twenty
thousand. The widow at once put on
her bonnet and shawl and went to the
office of the company.
Gentlemen, how is this?' she ask.
ed You give twenty thousand francs
for a leg, and you allowed me only
ten thousand for my husband"
Madam" was the reply, "the rea-
son is plain. Twenty thousand francs
won't provide him with leg, vut for
ten thousand you can get husband. F."

Opium Habit in France.

Official investigation into the re-
ported growth of the opium habit in
France discloses conditions of a most
alarming nature. In Marseilles and
Toulon, where the vice is particularly
rampant, whole streets were found
with an opium den in every house and
prevailing state of things equal to
the worst corners of any Chinese
town.
The government has become
alarmed, and 1t is proposed to fix on
the drug tariff of an absolutely pro-
hibitive nature. with view to eradi-
eating the evil.

John Hall sat far into the night
wrestling hard with bitter thoughts
and sweet. He opened a trunk in
his room and looked long at picture
which he drew from its depths. He
took out package of letters and
read one or two of them. At dawn

a nearby thicket and the sun shonc

fore the doorway. All at once a great
peace fell on the mans heart, and he
seemed boy again. He turned back
! to the kitchen and said to Hick'ry
Bill I'm going to town, Bill; back
tonight" He swung himself into the
saddle that lay on bay pony's back,
and started in steady canter for
town. Once there he had his beard
ance changed to much like the man
of ten years before. He sent tele.
gram, and waited for an answer. The
answer came, and the agent stared
as Miser John gave a strange shout,
which was after all only a college
yell of seventeen years back.
| That night John Hall took a two
days journey. When he came back
q carload Of furniture, including
piano, came with him. And with him
too, was the prettiest woman the peo-
pie of that section had ever seen.
And the sweetest natured, and most
neighborly. All the women and girls
fell in love with her: all the men
worshiped her from afar OF. And
on Thanksgiving there were times at
John Halls farm. The big barn floor
was made ready for a dance. The
dinner was given there beforehand
and there never was such feast pro.

habitant.
Over twenty turkeys were on the
boards. And the quantity of "stuf-
fng," pies, cake, pickles, potatoes,
gravy and cider consumed, and very
rare brand of sparkling cider never
before seen near Whipple Station,
made things hum along in beehive
fashion. John Hall made a speech
and the ne.ghbors were amazed to
hear the silent man tell jokes and
stories that kept them laughing as
though their sides would split It
was the event of twenty years in
Vermillion township and everyone
had the time of their lives. Three
cheers were given for John Hall and
his wife. and when the lamps were
lit in the barn there was the biggest
crowd that ever gathered under one
reef in the county. John Hall and
his wife were the first couple in the
first four of the opening quadrlle and
everyone danced until the roosters
began to crow. There were cheers
and handshakes for them at every
turn, and as the guests moved away
in their buggies and wagons there
We're more cheers and hearty good
wishes.
And as the sun came gloriously UP
over the distant hills and lighted the
barren fields with a touch OF autumn.

stood at the door of their home with
