A Woman and a s.ove-Pipe.

number of years ago cold weather
struck Kansas with a rush and caught
many people without any heating stoves
ready for action. Among those In this
plight was the family of one Of the well
known Topeka, Kansas, merchants. The
lady OF the house had been intending for
some days to have her heating stove put
up. but had neglected to have a man
cent out TO do the job. and one day while
her husband was down town there was
sudden drop in the temperature which
made life without a stove decidedly IN
comfortable. relates the Capital. 1t
would not have been SO bad for her alone,
but she had a couple of little ones. and
realized that it wouldn't do TO let them
run such a risk of catching cold.
While she was wondering what to do,
she saw man going past. 1t struck her
that he looked like man who would be
glad TO pick up honest piece of mon
ely, and rushing hastily out to him she
asked him IL he wouldn't come in and put
up her heating stove.
Afterwards she recalled that the man
looked at her with rather a queer express
sion; but as she went on and explained
that her little ones were really beginning
TO suffer with cold. he said he would give
her the assistance desired.
Accordingly he entered the house. got
the stove out of the store room, and
soon had it up. But after it was all
ready for fire, the lady made up her mind
that it wasn't standing just exactly as
she wished. and he had to move it. and
put up the pipe a second time. But he
did it uncomplsiningly.
When it was finally finished to the
lady's satisfaction she turned to him AMI
said:
Now, how much do you want for the
task"
why. 1 won't make any charge.
madam was the polite reply. IT hardly
know what it would be worth, anyhow.
AS a matter of fact he continued unable
to resist the tempta ton to disclose his
identity. Il am the superintendent of the
city railway here. and l don't often do
jobs of this kind.
The woman nearly collapsed. OF course
she apologized. and did what she could
TO smooth the situation over; but after
that she would go out of her way a
block 10 avoid meeting the man who had
so kindly come to her assistance in time

A BOYS First Sorrow.

a pathetic scene was witnessed at the
Rock Island depot at Mcpherson recent
~ as train pulled out bearing California
excursionists. A father and mother and
two children had boarded the train and
left a small boy, probably eight years
old behind. says the Republican. His
parents had kissed him and babe him
good bye. His father stood him up by
the side of the depot so he would be
out of danger, telling him to stand there
until the train left. The little fellow
stood where his father babe him, tears
yelling up In his eyes. Brave as he was
he could not stand ii, and just before the
train was ready to start. he went to the
steps of the coach and as the bell rang
he called "Papal Mamma" and COM
menced to climb on the train. The porter
set him off. but he ran along the side of
the train and commenced to climb on
again when he was taken in charge of by
some ladies who removed him until the
train was clear Of the depot. This was
his first experience of the trials and sor-
rows to which this life is subjected. The
world was dark to this little boy. He
had for the first time in his short life
been separated from those he loved and
he cried and sobbed as though his little
heart would break

Facts About Snakes.

"Pee-a-Bco," in the Sterling Bulletin,
gives the following history of snakes:
A RATHER is said to be one year old
for every rattle he has. This is probably
true, but there are some things about
him that are not true. 1t is an old say
ing that you can make him so mad that
he will bite himself and commit suicide
This is only a story of some fellow S
imagination. When snakes fight, they try
to swallow each other. Most of our
snakes are harmless and yet very few
people like snakes. How would you like
TO have snake in bed with you?
Snakes can be trained. and some kinds
will even show an affection for man.
Hogs like snakes and delight to eat rat
tiers; the venom has on effect on hog.
Some fellows like snakes so we'll that
they have them in their boots We have

with its little stomach, and you have to
try milk from a variety of cows, sterilize
it. and try a series of fods until you
strike the right one. The poor little

seven weeks; then in less than no time
