Illustrative of the ruling passion
of some people, Lady who was Wis
iting in the twin cities attended
Christmas services at one of the
principal churches. Upon her re-
turn she was asked what she thought
OF it, to which she replied with a
mixed feeling of surprise and dis
gust. II didn't see a pretty dress
in the whole audiencep'
Thereadiness ofthe United States,
after the PRONUNCIATION of the OBJ
streperous and insolent Monroe doc
trine, to aid factions of little coun-
tries which set out through insur-
rectlonary measures to become lilli-
putian republics, is sufficient to CT ii
to mind the words of the historian
concerning our Pilgrim fathers:
"They fell upon their knees, and
then upon the aboriginees.
The other day fashionably
dressed and intelligent looking lady,
while walking down Nicolletavenue,
Minneapolis, slippeda and fell heavily
upon the walk. A hideous looking
hoboe, who happened to be near
her, assisted her to her feet, for
which service the lady heartily
thanked him. 20, don t mention it
maam, said the hoboe, I'm always
glad to rescue fallen woman.
The people who have been trying
to economic on coal by burning
their ashes are reminded of the man
who, having been told that it rotted
the leather in his shoes to blacken
them, thought he would try it. He
purchased new pair of shoes and
blackened one of them every day
and the other was never blackened.
The result was that the shoe that
was not blackened lasted just TWEEN
ty minutes longer than the other.
A man who visited dime museum
became much interested in two men
who sat on the platform near the
center of the room. The men did
not appear to be freaks. They had
the usual number of hands, feet,
legs, arms, eyes, etc, and the visi-
tor was so curious to know why
they were on exhibition that he
finally asked them. To his question
one of the freaks replied: II am
the only man in the world, so far as
has been discovered, who can see a
sign which reads Fresh Paint,
without rubbing his finger along
the surface to see if any paint will
stick to it. The other man said
he was the only man who ever an
nounced himself in the newspapers
as candidate for a political Office
who did not begin the announce

This, of course. will not be for u year

IN q very short time. In fact, negoti.
