the play entertained the audience
with some superb dancing be-

with none to love him or care for him. Some years ago Mrs. Edwards made her. self famous by her refusal tc vacate a piece of land which the courts had held was accretion land and belonged to the owner of abutting property. Officers were sent to evict her, and she held them off with a shotgun. From early life she has been accustomed to get what she went after.
 The widow and the bachelor met in the streets of Council Bluffs The widow was thinking of the fine ears of corn which were going to waste on her land and wondering whom she could find to husk them, when she spied Peter.
 .'Ohs then this is regular bona flde leap year wedding?" replied Justice Ouren, before whom they appeared an hour later, after he had heard the out line of the story.
 Well. guess that's what you might call it. She asked me to get married a sort Of sudden like this morning, and I said would. I'm satisfied. and guess she is. So there you are, answered the bridegroom

 He did not finish, but he had said enough to make Mrs. Bowser turn pale and to take her appetite away. Even the eat walked around with hushed footsteps and seemed to have a pre- sentiment of coming disaster, and the cook retreated to her domain after one glance at MT. Bowser's face and wondered if he was going to charge her ST 50 for the dishes broken and the teaspoons thrown out during the month When the meal had been finally concluded he led the procession upstairs to the sitting room and turned to soberly ask:
 Mrs. Bowser, are you aware that death is stalking abroad in the land in every direction?'
 ''Why-why, I know that folks are dying she replied.
 ''Yes, dying by the thousands. Strong men get up all right in the morning and ere night they are no more on earth.'
 But you-you'-

HOW Much Is a BillionP

To an Englishman the bi1lion-dollar steel corporation was impossible, for to him a billion meant a million mill lion. That was the original meaning of the word, and it still prevails in England. A billion was a million squared, and in the days when num- bers were pointed off in periods of six, was written 100000, ,O0O000 A trillion was million to the third power-with IS ciphers. When it became the fash ion to divide numbers. into periods of three places, the word billion came to the meaning which, it has now :n America and on the continent of Eu- rope. Only the Englishman refuses to change. It is necessary to understand this difference which divides the two English-speaking nations, for man should be sure whether or not he has a right to call himself millionaire when 'ae visits London.

Ten minutes later she heard MT. Bowser calling to her in a feeble voice, and she hurried to his side to be told:
 'sMrs. Bowser, you will find my last will and testament in the hands of my lawyer. You have tried to assassinate me on fourteen different occasions, and you've got the most internal mother on the face of the earth, but you will nevertheless find that have forgiven you and provided for your future. You may go away now and leave me to die like some old horse.'' Niter was applied once more, and. after wifely pat on the head, Mrs. Bowser went back to her homework and the cat walked around and tried to figure out how one pimple weighing one dram, apothecaries' weight could get the better of n man weighing PIP l pounds avoirdupois. For the next half hour Mir. Bowser debated with himself whether he would forgive his mother-in-law at the last moment or go to his death pre- pared to haunt her last nights on earth, and then he suddenly sat up and called out. When Mrs. Bowser came running he demanded that the family l doctor be sent for at once, and with out protest she complied.
 Tn quarter of an hour the physician walked in, and in his cheerful way he called out;
