A CHINESE FUNNY STORY.
Typical Example Of the Humor Of III.
FioWery Kingdom.

SWS'y NlH9oonn.
Here is typical example Of ?
Chinese funny story: A passenger
boat full of people was on the point
OF pushing off from the shore when
a man came running up in hot haste
and asked to be taken or board.
There's no room. We can't take
you, answered the boatman. But
he was not to be put off SO easily.
If you will let me come" he cried,
Il will tell you a tale!0 The pas
sengers began to discuss the situa-
ton. eve have nothing to do" they
said to each other, ssand it's >very
tedious. If he were to tell us
story it would while away the time
Accordingly regulations as to the
number of passengers being by no
means strict in the flowery land) the
applicant was allowed to come on
board. The passengers squeezed
closer and SO managed to make room
for him, proving the truth of the
German adage, 'sMany patient sheep
go into small fold"
After giving the newcomer a lit
tie breathing time they asked for
the promised story. Without hest.
tation he began: "Ch'ao Ch'ao once
led $4,000 men (infantry and cav
airy to the south of the Yangtse."
Ch'ao Ch'ao was, a famous Chi
nese general who lived in the time
of the Han dynasty, about the be-
ginning of the Christian era, and
whose deeds of proves are still re-
lated with great gusto among his
fellow countrymen. con their way"
went on the story teller, "they had
to cross a river by bridge which
consisted of a single plank. They
crossed over one by one" Here the
narrator began to make noises
which were supposed to represent
the trampling of the steeds, ''Teh-
teh-teh." This went on till his
audience grew rather tired Of it.
At last some one said, ''Please go
on with the story" 'SYou must
wait for them to cross the BRIDGE"
was the answer. "When 100000
men and horses have to cross a one
plank bridge it won't do to hurry
them. They must be careful or they
might fall into the water" and he
calmly resumed his steh-teh-teh."
Again his audience pleaded for a
continuation of the story, but again
he declined to be hurried. ''They
can't cross the bridge in a short
time" he said. 'They must 60
slowly and carefully" So he went
on with his "teh-teh-teh," and, how
ever much he was urged, he would
say nothing else. So the boat reach
ed it's destination, and the story was
never finished because Ch'ao Chaos
army had not yet had time to cross
the bridge.

Rest For a Weary Pair.

A Baltimore avenue boy, aged SIX
years, seems to have an imaginative
mind as well as a humane DISPOSE
ton.
Recently his mother noticed that
at bedtime every night he laid his
little boots together upon their sides
instead of setting them upright.
sPlease tell me why you always
place your boots in that way" she
said.
"Why," answered the little boy,
cts because they must be tired
walking so much all day. | lay
them sideways SO they can rest. =

TREATING A TooTHkcHs.
How the Tarf.lizing Pains Nav Be
SpeAdi Allayed.

Toothache is little thing il the
books, but many physicians would
rather meet a burglar at the door on
dark night than call to cure
bad toothache of several days con-
tinuance. A hypodermic of NOR
phine only postpones the evil day,
and usually the patient is respect
fully referred to the dentist. The
tooth should not be extracted while
the jaw and gums are infamed and
the latter swollen, and it is the ply
sician's duty to treat the case until
the above conditions are removed.
Always keep a small vial containing
the following mixture: Chloroform,
git. x; glycerin, git. x; sat. sol. &C.
CARROLL, git. x; morphine, ST. j.,
with a small wad of absorbent cot
ton. If the offending tooth has
cavity or decayed surface, saturate
a small pellet of cotton with the
above mixture and put into the cavi-
ty or against the decayed surface, as
the case may be. Never pack this
cotton in or the more is the trouble,
but have the pellet small enough to
enter without crowding. In most
cases this will end the trouble. When
the gums are swollen and tender,
paint two or three times, two min
utes apart, with 4 per cent solu-
ton of cocaine. The patient may
have been eating a good deal of
fruit. The tongue and mucous slem-
brane of the mouth are pale-~sour
stomach-and next day the tooth
ache will return.
Give ten grains of subcarbvnate
of bismuth and ten grains of phe-
nacetin at once and similar dose
before each of the three following
meals, with laxative, if needed. and
stop all fruit for a few days, and it
will not return. The same powder
every two hours with cessation of
fruit eating will stop the persistent,
tormenting neuralgias.- Exchange.

RIGHT LIVING AND RAscAL!TY.

Dr. ration defined to some extent
what he meant by the expression CT
"right-liying- -rascals," for he referred
to them as teaching Sundas- school
regularly and driving hard bargains
on.eyery week day, but even this does
rot make it quite clear hcw man
can be at once right-Eivlng and
rascal OF course nobody knows, or
can know. just who it WAS that Dr..
Patton had in mind when he spoke
and it might help us all out Of our
difficulty if he would mention a few
names. It doesn't seem likely, says
the New York Times. however, that
he would make any prolonged effort
to prove the compatibility Of rascal,
ity aud right living TIC him, at
least as much as to other men, right
living implies something mere than
going to church for appearance sake,
not getting drunk in public, Austen
ton from wife-beating, and refusal
to pick pockets or take actual money
out Of other mems tills- The con.
tent Of the phrase "right-living" is
very large, and it seems pity to lirn-
it its scope. even by unintendec i'm
plication If the incongruity OF its
components were once Strengthened
out, 1t would be easy to admit that
a good many rascals have redeeming
CT mitigating qualities or habits, and
that good many exponents Of nu-
merous virtues make extremely tire
some associates in the ordinary reia-
tions Of life. It was long since OBJ
served that the people are built in
compartments, like a modern steamer.
and that most Of them carry a varied
freight of both morals and manners.
