ity. Any transportation Of government

MRth ematical Facility.

In one of the public schools recent
ly, according to a writer in the Cen
tlemans Magazine, a number Of small
pupils were busily engaged in working
problems in multiplication, with more
or less satisfactory results.
After time the teacher noticed one
little fellow who seemed most I'M
happy. His cheeks were flushed, his
hair tumbled and tears were very near
the surface. The teacher said, in a
kindly tone:
Well. John. what is the natter"
oh. dear. | wish l was rabbit"

"A rabbit" exclaimed the teacher
in establishment. Why on earth
would you like to be a rabbit

OF the American plan hotels, agreeing
to pay IS a day for his meals and room.
The next morning after he arrived he
was seized with an attack of rheumatic
govt The doctor he called told him
he must eat nothing but bread and
milk. He stayed at the hotel for five
days, and ate bread and milk three
times a day. touching nothing on the
elaborate menus On the sixth day he
sent for his bill. This is the way ii
came: To room and board, five days

postulated the senator. Il ate none Of
the meals. You shouldn't charge me
for the bread and milk The clerk
silently pointed to the line. DISHES not

make it cost them $1,000 by the time
he has told all his friends to keep
away.-Washingto Letter.

daughters to precede him, when to his
disgust and amazement he discovered
that it was already filled to over

made the remarkable statement thar
not in the course of his entire life
had he allowed drop of malt or alco-
holic liquor to pass his lips.
Anybody who knows Mr.. Pierce
would put implicit credence in his
words. In answer to a reporters ques-
ton Mr.. Pierce said: Il never took any
pledge to abstain from drinking intoN-
icants. l don't know that | deserve
any special credit for refraining. for |
really never had the least desire to
know the taste OF spirits. Nearly all
my friends are moderately given to
the use of liquor and l have no preju-
dice on the question. 1t is simply =
lifelong observance.
Though there may be nothing in the
doctrine of heredity. it il little curl
Gus to know that Mr.. Pierce's father
was also a total abstainer and that he
lived to the ripe old age of SO. On
the other hand his grandfather took
three fairly good sized drinks day,
with the greatest system and regular
ity. and he lived to be 96. Thus It
would seem there is no iron-clad rule

intoxicants and longevity.

Will catch the strain of the glad refrain;
That the sun will follow the binding

That the clouds will fly from the black

That the stars VIII come out by and by.

You'll see that the singing will make you

And the heavy load and the ragged road
And the sting and the stripe of the tor

That the beam will change to trifiing

President Joseph w. Morton of the
International Brotherhood of Station
AIRY Firemen has submitted to the ex-
.ecutive board of that organization
proposition for organizing the colored
workmen in the south. The racial
prejudice, which is strong in the
South, has hitherto prevented the
white and colored workmen from fra
ternizing in one local union, and the
laws of the organization forbid the
granting of charters to more than one
local union in any city except by a
special dispensation. This has barred
cut the colored workmen to great ex-
tent, an. Mr.. Morton says applications
are now in the national o1sce for if
teen charters for oolored unions in the
South. He proposes to have the con-
stitution changed so that each city in
the South may be granted two char
tiers. one for the white men and one
for the colored workmen.
