ridiculous things they do to get the
better of each other are told in colored

and always about that time, some dire
catastrophe happens to Cholly. too,
and he says, Double fudge"
These pictures. by the clever and

SLEPT IN A BOX.
The Boy hood Experience of United
States Senator.

States Senator.
Nowadays, or rather nowanights,
Senator Warren, of Wyoming, sleeps
on a brass bedstead. There was a
time, though, when the senator's bed
was pine box filled with hay. That
was many years ago. when the senator
was boy in Massachusetts,, living in
an old-fashioned farmhouse. The
kitchen fireplace was so large that it
took horse to haul in the back log,
which was almost half tree. There
were no stoves then, only large crane
with pot hanging upon the hooks.
The attic was the bedroom of the fu-
ture senator and his brother. It was
cold room, with crevices through
which the snow drifted, and the boys
came to the conclusion that they could
find something warmer than the bed
On the floor. They took a large box,
filled it with hay, got inside, pulled
the cover Of the box over them, and
slept like tops. GIN those days." said
Senator Warren, 81 used to get up at
three o'clock in the morning and feed
the COWS, clean the barn, split wood,
get my breakfast, and then walk three
miles to school" -Washington Post.

Railways Without a Curve.

There is railway over the Egyp-
tian desert which runs for As miles
in a straight line, but this is easily
beaten in Australia. The railway
from Nyngan to Bourke, in New
South Wales, runs over plain, which
is as level as billiard table, for 1875
miles in automatically straight
line There is hardly an embani-
ment, nowhere curve, and only TIRES
very slight elevations.
