Left ON the Cobbler's Hands.

Pointing to a row of dusty shoes on
a shelf, the customer asked the cob
bier "How in the world die. you collect
all those shoes? DO you mean to say
that people leave their shoes for re-
pairs and then never come after themW
"Just that" replied the cobbler.
Sometimes after they have left their
shoes they come to the conclusion that
they'd rather spend little more money
and get a new pair outright. Then
again if they have a lot of shoes they
don't miss the pair they've left in here,
and they forget all about them. It's
generally men who do that sort Of
thing, though. A woman seems to be
more prOvident.
"No; the work on them is not a dead
loss to me, for after keeping them a
year 1 generally offer them for sale at
a price in advance of the value of my
work on them. Sometimes I reap quite
q little money from my sale of deserted
shoes, and many poor person gets a
slick shoe for about a third less than
its worth. New York Press.

iured.
A tornado swept the peach farm OF
b. M. Averett, on the Seaboard Rail
way in Stewart county a day or two
ago, doing great damage, The lorna,
dos path was only 400 yards long and
100 yards wide, the storm king seeming
to dip down upon that one spot. SeY-
eral hundred bushels peaches were
lost. The house in which the frnit is
packed was blown down upon a dozen
little girls hired to pack peaches. For
tunately the falling timbers caught
upon stack of crates, thus saving the
lives of the little toiIers, all of whom
escaped.

Cats I'm n Bombardment.

A lady who was in Port Arthur dur
ing the commandments by Admiral To
COS fleet thus describes the curious
effect produced on cats by the can
nonade: II was at my window during
each bOmbardment by the JapS, but
only through the day, because at night
| uid not dare stir out of bed. In
front Of me there was q little roof on
which five or six cats of the neighbor-
hood collected. Each time there was
a bombardment the cats duly arrived,
and, having observed them, on the
second occasion proceeded to watch
them. With my family we passed the
hours looking at them. At each gun
shot the cats arched their backs and
stiffened their legs and seemed both
terrified and furious Then when a
Kissing shell arrived it gave the signal
for frightfuI battle. They jumped
at each other, raging like tigers, and
seemed to hold each other responsible
for what was taking place. The effect
was so cOmical that we could not help
laughing, although the occasion did
not inspire gayety. After having
fought, the cats retired for awhile, as
though bewildered, but as soon as the
bombardment began again they went
through the same business. Each time
1t was always the same"
