Ripley to himself, II am sure that it
will SELL"
But there was tri1ing error in his
reckoning.
That error was due to the insignifi-
cant fact that in Longwood at present
there was not a single case of Group or
whooping cough except that of his
small daughter DR.. Ripley sat for a
few minutes and thought about it.
Nance he said after awhile, ''if
you want that child to get better you
must let her get out IN the open air.
Medicine can do much. but air is the
important thing after all. Send her out
and let her play"
"But, Howard" protested his better
half, there's no place for her to go but

The doctors youngest was compan-
ionable little girl and soon made
friends. and she speedily became ex-
ceedingly popular because she could do
certain things the others couldn't do.
Some Of the things that she could do
were to stand on one leg and wind the
other round it and double herself into a
human knot and grow black in the face
and utter wild west yells Of warfare
She didn't enjoy these things, but they
did, and whenever she started in she

An old lady recently bargained with
a cabman standing outside Colchester
railway station to take her into the
town.
The sum being agreed upon, the dame
returned into the station and soon re-
appeared with two parrots in cages,
which she handed up to the cabman.
Again she journeyed to the platform
and brough out two cats. A third
trip she made, bringing back daintily
dressed fox terrier, and a fourth ex-
petition was interrupted by cabby ex-
claiming:
"Beggin' your pardon, ma'am, but

Grass That ssTires."

In some parts of New Mexico there
grows a grass which produces SOM
niferous effect on the animals that
Craze upon it. Horses, after eating the
grass, in nearly all cases sleep stand
ing, while cows and sheep almost in
variably lie down.
It has occasionally happened that
travellers have stopped to allow horses
to feed in places where the grass
grows pretty thickly and the animals
have had time to eat considerable
quantity before it's effects manifested
themselves.
In such cases horses have gone to
sleep on the road and it is hard to
arouse them. The effect of the grass
passes off in an hour or two, and no
bad results have ever been noticed on
account Of it. Cattle on the ranches
frequently come upon patches Of this
grass, where they feed for perhaps half
an hour and then fall asleep for an
hour or more, when they wake up and
start feeding again. The programme
is repeated perhaps dozen times un-
til thirst obliges them to go to water.
Whether, like the poppy, the grass
contains opium, Or whether its sleep
producing property is due to some
other substance is not known.

Wants County Affairs Investigated.

Detroit, June30.-In accordance with
his announcement Prosecutor Hunt
has presented to the circuit court
judges, sitting en- bane, a petition for
grand jury to investigate affairs in
Wayne county. With very little delay
the petition was granted and the jury
ordered to meet July next. The pros
ecutor's petition says no session of a
grand jury has been held in the county
for seven years and that though actual
scandals and rumors of corruption in
office have been current no complaints
have been laid with the magistrates
having jurisdiction.

The emperor replied that the visit had
been charming to him personally, and
he hoped it would be enduring in it's
impress on the friendship between the
two nations.
Admiral Cotton and the captains of

And SO Marion got plenty of fresh
air and incidentally all Longwood took
the whooping cough It was only
question of time.
1t SO happened that school opened
about two weeks after the doctor had
tackled up his placards through the
town. The children from the doctors
neighborhood associated with the 9TH
err children in Longwood, as was to be
expected, and, 10 and behold, one
bright day the school was closed-all
the schools were closed. Longwood
had whooping cough for fair, an(
sons 1t attacked young and old as
we'll, strong and weak, male and fe-
male.
At first they took it as joke, ex-
cept those mothers who knew really
what it meant and what it involved
But in few more days all Longwood
was In agony-spasmOdic agony--and
then Longwood as one man sought for

"Beautifullyp' exclaimed his wife.
