DISCOUNT LAwsuIrs.-Sleeper, the
Santa Fe stage driver, answers ques-
tions freely and gives the passengers q
good deal of information that Is not
called for by their tickets. A nervous
old lady was riding down a; dangerous
looking trail with him once, when she
noticed a hatchet lying in the bottom
of the stage and inquired why he car
ried 1t.
"I use that hatchet to knock injured
passengers in the head" replied Mr
Sleeper.
The old lady gasped with astonish-
ment and drew away from him to the
other end of the seat.
Sleeper leaned over toward her, and
in a confidential whisper explained:
I'VE have a good many accidents on
this here line. The stages allus tip
pin over and rollin' down precipices,
and every time passenger gifts hurt
he sues the company for damages
These here damage suits uses up all
the profits of stagin' and we've had to
stop 'em, so every driver carries
hatchet When a passenger gifts hurt
we simply knock 'em on the head and
throw the body over a precipice and
there amt no lawsuits. Her

with a raging earache. His mother
while striving to finish up urgent
household duties before she could take
him to the doctors office, endeavored
to buoy up his nerve.
BE brave, now, Tommy" she said
like the big Indian. The big Indian
never cries, no matter how sick he Is.
Why, he can let his hand be cut off
and never a whimper from HIM"
Tommy looked up, a hand over each
aching ear, and the big, hot tears roll
ing down his face.
That's all right, Mama" he sobbed
"the big Indian may stand it; but If
that big Indian has a little boy like
me, and that little boys got the ear
ache-I guess he's crying, too!"
