Good Businesa.

A story is told of man in an
Arkansas town who, in addition to
his being president of the local
board of aldermen, was also the pro-
prietor of the best hotel in the
place.
1t appears that a visitor from the
east one day remarked to this man
that the town might be made good
deal healthier if certain large
swamp near by were drained.
"W-a-a-l," drawled the politician
and hotel man, "all my boarders
says the same thing. In my persi-
ton as president of the board of
aldermen I'd shorely advocate the
Improvement in minute ef it
warn't for my SON."
"Why," exclaimed the easterner
in surprise, "why should your son
object?"
"W-a-a-l, stranger" replied the
Arkansas man, che runs the drug
store. ."-Harper's Weekly.

Tho Largest Book and Man.

The largest book in the world is
in the British museum. 1t is an at
las measuring 5 feet 10 inches by
3 feet 2 inches and weighing close
upon two hundredweight. The
largest map in the world is the
ordnance survey map of England,
which covers over 10S,00O sheets.
In its preparation it cost 100000
a year for twenty years. The scale
varies from ten feet to one-tenth of
an inch to the mile. The details
are SO minute that maps having a
scale of twenty-five inches "show
every hedge, fence, wall, building
and even every isolated tree in the
country. The plans indicate not only
the exact shape of every building,
but every porch, area, doorstep,
lamp post, railway and fire plug"

Il can do nothing but submit. Yet

when a lady passes the age of thirty

offered yourself just now" she re-
piled. "Good night, Mr.. Jones!"

good revival has been held here,
which has added 30 persons to
the membership, with fully as
many conversions, and pentecos-
