The Doctor and His Patient.

DR.. p Of London enjoys very
large practice and hardly finds time
to take his much needed rest.
One day DIR. r., who had company
to dinner, sat quietly chatting in n
corner of the drawing room when
he was told that a patient had come
to see him who was strongly recon-
mended by some fellow practition-
ers. The doctor submitted with a
bad grace and stepped into his sur
gerry.
Our physician was in the habit of
ascertaining the condition of the
patient by asking him to count and
generally stopped him at thirty or
thirty-fvo, quite enough for the
purpose. This time also DR.. T.. ask
ed his patient TO count. Time pass
ed, and the guests began to feel
alarmed at his protracted absence.
One of them opened the surgery
door. DR.. p. had gone to sleep in
his armchair, and the patient had
counted up to S,642.-London An
swers.

The RattIesnake.

For some cause no rattlesnake
will cross a hair rope. When a
camping party is in region infest-
ed with these vermin, all that is
necessary to protect the camp at
night is to lay hair lariat on the
ground around the camp in such a
way that no snake can approach the
camp from any quarter without
crossing the rope, and the campers
are perfectly secure from intrusion.
Why it is no human being can ex-
plain, but thai it is so has been too
often proved to be doubted.

FOR THE LITTLE ONES.
Johnny Applesee6. a Queer Character
Of Long AGO.

Before the days of the civil war
every country boy and girl had
heard of Johnny Appleseed- He
was a queer character wandering
from place to place, and as he play
ed his fiddle very Well and did not
beg for money most people were
glad to see him. In these DAYS we
might have called him tramp, but
Johnny was no idle good for moth
ing, as you will see. Whenever he
entered a village every one gathered
to hear him play merry tunes, and,
though he often accepted lodging
and clothing, he never passed the
hat for money.
lie never talked about himself
or told where he was going, but
used to recite the most wonderful
tales IL rhymes. Children loved to
hear him, and interested people used
to write down some of his verses.
Appleseed was only nickname
which was given him on account Of
singular habit he had of planting
seeds. Whenever he ate an apple,
peach or pear he saved the seed and
while tramping across the country
used to stop and plant them in
places where he thought they would
grow. Years afterward pany fam
lily taking up land in tie wild west
ern country chose a spot where a
fiourishing orchard was growing
that had been planted by Johnny
Appleseed. This is one of the songs
that he used to sing:
love to plant little seed.
Whose fruit never see
Some hungry stranger Il will feed
When Il becomes a tree.
love TO sing a little song
Whose words attune the day
And round me see the children thronK
When begin to play.
So can never lonely be-
Although am alone.
think OF future apple trees
Which help the men unknown
sing my heart into the air
And plant my way with seed;
The song sends music everywhere:
The tree Will tell my deed.

English Rulers and the LANGUAGE.

English Rulers and the Language.
Unlike most other countries, Eng
land has repeatedly been governed
by foreigners, who thought so little
of their people that they did not
even take the trouble to learn the
language of their subjects. Most of
the Danish kings knew no English,
and if William the Conqueror, Viii
liam Rufus and others knew the Ian
guage they kept the fact to them
selves.
The early French kings, in fact,
regarded England as a conquest and
France as their home. Richard l.,
for instance, spent but few months
of the ten years of his reign on Eng
fish soil In modern times George
|. neither knew nor cared to learn
English, and George II. spoke it
very imperfectly.

Johnny-Yes. viii you give me

It's Mysterious Charm.

Madge, having learned to make
several characters in writing, al
though utterly unable to spell a
word without having it given her
letter by letter, one evening handed
her father slip of paper upon
which, SO she gravely informed him,
she had written a joke.
"H m-m," said the indulgent par
snt inspecting the tumble of letters,
"this. my dear, doesn't spell any
thing"

girl. "It's what it doesn't spell that's
The joke, papal And" cooking her
head wisely, maybe it's really
funny one, who knows ?" = New

NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-Todays
stock market made a rather notable
show of strength and prices were lift
ed quite generally 1 per cent or more
This was due in part to the sympa-
thetfc effect of movements in special
stocks in which a speculative cam
paign was going on, but general con-
siderations also played a part Of the
special movements the most notable
was in the local traction group.
The accompanying gossip quite gen.
orally pointed to plan for a COM
prehensive merger of all the traction
facilities within the Greater New York
corporate limits and supposed share
in the control by New York Central
and Pennsylvania. Manhattan con-
spicuously abStained from a share in
the movement, and was at times below
Saturdays level. The dealings in this
stock were rather light.
Valuations on Higher Level.
This gave some color to SUPPOSE
tion that the movement among the
other fractions was designed to adjust
their valuations to the higher level al
ready attained by Manhattan An
other conspicuous center of strength
was the soft coal group, especially the
North and South roads traversing the
region between the Ohio river and the
lakes. Rumors were current of plan
for combining all the railroads in the
group by making a holding company of
one of the smaller companies, Hook
ing Valley and Kanawha & Michigan
were most conspicuously affected.
Among the more general considera-
tions which affected the market was
hope that the December disbursements
of interest and dividends, which are
estimated at about $75,oOO,Ooo, would
afford relief to the local money mar
ket. The payment in London today
of $40, 600 to $25,O00,000 on account
of the shipping machine also aroused
hopes of easier conditions in the money
market. Actual quotations for call
money were firm under the continuing
influence of preparations for the De-
cember disbursements, and time money
rates were unchanged. New York eX-
change at Chicago rose again to par,
but a deposit was made at the sub
treasury of $250,000 for transfer to the
interior
Continued Close Money.
The opinion of bankers, in spite of
todays stock market view, is for a
continuance of close money conditions
over the end of the year. There was
some speculation on the assumption
that selling of stocks on the ground of
supposed antitrust views to be ex-
pressed in the presidents message
would prove unwarranted. Some very
heavy blocks of ST. Paul were placed
on the market, the source Of which
gave rise to much gossip In connec-
ton with the authorized new stock is
sue. The mystery Of the selling was
unrevealed. The seasonable cold
weather had a good effect on the gen
eral market, and more especially on
the coalers. There were occasional set
backs throughout the day, but the
closing was firm and at about the top
for many stocks.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales,
par value, $2,G10,00O. United States IS
coupon advanced 1-S per cent on the
last call.

LONDON, Dec. 1.-THE feature of the
money market today was the International
Mercantile Marine companys payments
for its purchase of steamship lines. Dis
counts were firm. 1t was anticipated that
the receipts in the contemplated advance
in the bank rate will not be maintained
long, as it was believed the bank df-
rectorS were much divided at their meet
ing on Thursday last as to the advisable
1ty of q change The feeling prevailed
that a per cent rate would be declared
next Thursday, and that if such action
was not taken on that date it would al
most inevitably occur Fat the meeting Of
the directors on the Thursday following.
Business on the stock exchange opened
quiet, on an expectation of a rise In the
bank rate having deterrent influence.
ConSo1s at home were easier. Americans
opened depressed and almost stagnant,
while waiting for New Yorks lead, par
ticular interest being taken in the effect
OF President Roosevelts message to con-

bad October statement. l5Kaffirs were Of

MINNEAPOLIS.

Minneapolis new month began in
the wheat market with very quiet tone,
which ruled through the early part of the
session. May wheat opened shade un-
der the closing figure OF Saturday, and
held around 737sc, not varying more than
1sc either way, although a lower tendency
was very clear December wheat was a
trifie easier than May at first, but there
was practically nothing doing in it. The
cries. Chicago had only 10000 bu turned
over ON December contract, to start with.
The Minneapolis clearing house reported
only 100000 bu Of wheat and q, 600 bu flax
ing all around than had been expected.
On Saturday there was talk of an Increase
in Duluth stocks and estimates of the
quantity ran from 100000 to 100000 bu.
Yesterday the Duluth report showed an
increase for last week Of 1,231, 900 bu.
This was taken as an indication that a.
considerable quantity Of wheat In private
stocks had been turned over into public
stocks, or else the farmers shipments Of
wheat to the head of the lakes must have
been heavier than the trade has figured
upon. The Northwest made gain of 467
cars over the same day last year. the two
markets getting 1,557 cars against 1000
last year. Minneapolis received 1,228 cars
against S22 and Duluth 1923 against 26s.
Primary E,l reeeipts eSa Ea were ass9 GOO bu
$4,000 bu against ], ,451, 600. Worlds ship
