Julius Caesar holds the record for breyity of convincing speech.
 The story Is told that while Caesar was in the Sidst of his struggle for the mastery of the Roman empire the sol diers of his favorite Tenth legion mutt nIed. He appeared before them, and, uttering the one word "Quirites," i" paused.
 That word means, of course, "citi- zens," but to the veterans to whom it was addressed 1t meant great deal more. It was the special term used in addressing Roman voters assembled fin q purely civic capacity, not as soldiers, but as civilians.
 To the mutinous soldiers 1t meant that the great commander, whom they had followed for ten long years from the Alps to the Thames and from the Rhine to the Pyrenees and across the Rubieon, disowned them as soldiers and dismissed them from his victorious service.
 Realizing its meaning, the story goes, the mutineers were appalled,. Battle scared veterans burst into tears, i'm plored their leader to pardon them and inflicted summary punishment upon the inciters of the mutiny as a proof of their repentance.

A TsafuI InvRnffon.

At sportsman's show in New York one of the novelties shown was a portable wireless telegraph apparatus which could be carried in a hunters pack, says the New York Mail. It at tracted much attention from the visit ors.
 That thar is shorely great tlSng," said an old Maine guide. Suppose here's a dude hunter got lost What does he do? He climbs tall tree, fixes the majigger, and lets go.

A Poor Show.

An American was describing to an English sportsman the west of the past.
 Our old time western miner," he said, had an ingenious and simple mind. There was a miner in Montana who rode into Anaconda one day to see an entertainment that had been an- nounced. This entertainment was a play, but the miner had never seen a playa panorama was the only sort of entertainment with which he had ever been regaled.
 Long before the hour to begin he bought his seat and entered the hall. He sat there in solitude for about twen- ty minutes. He gazed at the curtain intently. It was a poor curtain, noth- ing but gray, pyramidal mountain painted on dark blue background. When the miner had looked his fill at 1t he rose and departed for his distant home.
 "A pretty rotten panoramer,' he was heard to mutter as he mounted his horse"

A Queer Marriage Ceremony.

Among the Kherrias of India the marriage ceremony Is very funny. Taking a small portion of the hair of the bride and groom In turn from the center of the forehead, the priest draws 1t down on to the bridge of the nose. Then, pouring oil on the head, he watches it carefully as 1t trickles down the portion of hair. If the oil runs straight on to the tip of the nose their future will be fortunate, but if 1t spreads over the forehead or trickles off on either side of the nose, bad luck Is sure to follow. Their fortunes told, generally to their own satisfaction, the essential and irrevocable part of the ceremony takes place. Standing up side by side, but with faces strictly averted, the bride and groom mark each others forehead with "sindur" (vermilion).

In my second vision l saw another sight, for there l saw the promised land of Canaan. l saw Moses and Joshua. I saw Jerusalem gleaming in the glowing sun. I saw the rich grapes of Eschol. I saw David and Solomon in all their glory. As Moses led the children of Israel out of Egypt and through the Red sea, I see some other man, heaven sent, as was Moses, raised up to lead the American laborers and American capitalists out of their self ishnesses and meannesses. see Amer lea in my second vision as the land of true freedom. 1 see all men, both la- borers and capitalists, living together in harmony and love all living as Christ would have them live. May all of us, whether we work in broadcloth or in overalls, try to speed that millen- nial day by doing to our brothers as we would have our brothers do to Us. Then all labor troubles will not be solved by the "black rule of selfish ness," but by the Golden Rule of Christian love"
