Priest and Donkey.

When Archbishop Farley was private chamberlain to the late Pope Leo. some 20 years ago, he was called upon to meet all sorts of persons. Many of them measured wits with him. and few scored victory. On one occasion young Frenchman tried his best to anger the prelate, then Mons. Farley, by scoffing at religion and clergymen. Failing in this. he resorted to sheer impotence, saying: "I am informed that in Mada- gascar, whenever they hang priest, they hang donkey along with him."
 The young man laughed. and Mons Farley, looking at him mildly, said: "Well, let us both be thankful, my young friend, that we are not in Madagas- oo-b

Young Women of Boise, Idaho, HavS OrganfsatiOn and Choose
 victima by Lot.

Boise, Idaho. has fully organized suicide club. That 1t is ready for busi- ness and has already transacted con- siderable business is shown by the fact that at least three of its members have 'shuf1led of" by the suicide route with in period of as many months.
 The fact of the existence of the organ lzation became known to the police in an investigation into the death of Grace Ashton, its latest victim. She died from morphine poisoning on a third attempt at suicide, both of her previous attempts having been frustrated through season. able discovery by friends.
 Another young woman friend of Miss Ashton attempted suicide by taking poll son, but recovered, and 1t was through her that the existence of the club was made known. The club is regularly or. ganized with a strong membershfp-alt young women-and holds meetings at regular intervals It transpires that at each meeting a new victim Is chosen by lot. who Is to "pass off" before the time Tor the next meeting by one of the usual methods adopted in such cases, the par ticular mode being optional with Che can- 6tdate,

WONDERS IN MECHANICS.
Some That Were Worked by Young Americans with . Genius for
 Invention.

A young man who at 21 had been be- fore the mast. had worked in tho chemical department of mill and had lectured upon nitrous-oxide gas throughout the country patented the rotating chamber for pistol. It was not considered particularly valuable un. til after his first company that made it had failed and fights in Texas and witk the Seminoles in Florida proved it's worth. The Mexican war made c de- mand for 1t.
 The same mechanic. says the Worlds Work. who did so much for early ax-making developed details In revolver-making. The American plan of not hesitating at the cost of new appliances was never better shown than in this big armory. The owner was probably the first man to suggest the mining of harbors with torpedoes for defense, and he was the first to lay a submarine electric cable. One day a young man from Vermont came to his works.
 "What can you do?" asked the su- perintendent-
 "I'm machinist toolmaker and a diesinker and I can play horn in a band" was the reply.
 He went to work the next day. A few years later he multiplied by 40 the value of certain labor in another fac- tory, and by another invention saved the company $50,O00 on contracts ai- ready made. Later, with sewing ma chine company, he forged shuttles from one piece of bar steel and cut previous costs in half. Since that time he has made forgings by the use of drops weighing as much as ton dropping with dies sometimes six feet upon iron. steel and copper An example of his in- ventive genius is the instance of his forging offhand from single piece of copper commutator bars for electric dynamos after the electrician in charge had said that such a scheme was im- possible.

REMEMBER WoMAN'S GLANCE.
Men May Forget the Color of Her Hair,
 But the Power of Her Eye Is Potent.

A woman's eyes are the first objects to attract mans attention, and they are the last things he remembers about her. Long after he has forgotten the color of her hair. the dimple in her chin and the soft. sweet sound of her voice, the look in her eye remains with him, says an authority on the sub- ject.
 He may not be able to single her glove out of pile of keepsakes; he may have cast her photograph upside down into the waste basket with lot of others; the slippers she made him may have been worn out by his valet. but still some particular turn of her glance. some little trick of dropping her lashes or lifting her brown eyes will be as clear to him as the daylight Ten years after love has been lad away in his little satin-lined casket that glance will rise like Banquo's ghost at the feast and startle him just at the moment when the man Is lock- ing most intently into the eyes of an- other woman.
 It is not the color of a woman's eyes which a man first observes or last re- members. Nine times out of ten . man will turn from the glance of . pair of soft brown. cowlike eyes to gaze into the green orbs of the red- headed girl on the other side of tho table, and many a doll-like, blue-eyed beauty weeps because some pug-nosed. tawny-eyed woman has lured away her sweetheart.
 Ask any man the color of his sisters eyes and he will look at you blankly. "Jove," he will remark, "I-I believe I've forgotten. But they're all right There's something about them that's catchy" And that is positively all that can be gotten out of him.
 The fact that Becky Sharpe's eyes were green or that Cleopatra's eyes were yellow never interfered with the machinations of those fascinating la dies. nor dulled their regulations as coquettes. Color, size and shape may make an eye beautiful. but they never can give it that something which so many beautiful eyes lack and so many homely ones possess. the power to make a man break a bank or sell hts overcoat in order to give his wife what she wants.
 When the world was sentimental men called 1t "soul." Then they grew practical and apathetic and they called 1t character" But no man will ever know what it is any more than he will ever know why he married the particu. lar woman he picked out or why the cook has left. It Is question as subtle and elusive as either of these.

Tired Nervous

When you feel languid, tired, nervous and irritable, your vi- tality is low-your supply of nerve energy exhausted, and your system running down for lack of power,
 The organs of the body are working poorly, or not at all, and you are not getting the nourishment needed. This soon impoverishes the blood and in- stead of throwing off the i'm purities, distributes it all through the body. This brings disease and misery.
 Feed the nerves with Dr. Miles Nervine, a nerve food, a nerve medicine, that nourishes and strengthens the nerves, and see how quickly you will get strong and vigorous.
 My wife suffered with nervousness previous to recent attack of typhoid fever, put afCer her recovery rom Ino fever, she was much worse. and could hardly control herself being exceed ingly nervous when the least excited. She was very restless at night. and never had good nights rest. She also suffered much from nervous head ache. Dr. Miles Nervine was recom- mended by friend. After the first three doses she had good nights rest, and at the end of the first weeks treatment she was wonderfully inn proved Continued use of Nervine has completed her entire cure"

Philippi Positions Not Wanted

Phi1pp1ns Positions NOV wanted.
 Positions in the Philippines seem to go begging. Several months ago Col. Edwards, chief of the tnsular bureau, called upon the civil service commits sion to certify candidates for 150 teachers positions paying from $2.o0o to $900 per annum. There were few applicants, fewer took the examina- don, and only AZ were found eligible for appointment. Another examina- ton will, therefore, be held early in October. The insular bureau will not permit women to take the examina- ton for these positions. and the du- ties or pay Of pedasogue do not seem to appeal to the young men of tho country.

"lhe batter had no right 70 leave the

done so' and the pitcher threw a strike
