The Earl of Valletort ate peach, thinking
it was cheese. Armstrong had muddled him

commotion was waylaid by Ermyntrude

Men and Mirrors.

There's one thing a woman seldom
let's get by her without at least look,
and that's a mirror. 1t doesn't make
any difference whether she's homeIy or
otherwise looks in just the same.
But man! Well, he can pass mirror
every five minutes, and there isn't one
chance in ten that he'll gaze into it. At
least if he does, he usually looks half
surprised to find himself there-as if he
didn't quite know who he was. And
that's the beauty about some men-they
honestly don't know themselves at all.
Haven't any more idea what they look
like than a wooden Indian has. If such
a man has his picture taken and you
tell him it looks just like him, he'll say,
Does it?'' kind of surprised; maybe
it does. Haven't any idea how I lookl'
He is always interesting, too, this man,
because he isn't conceited. 1t means
that he is too busy thinking about
things of more Importance to the world
than his possibilities as a lady killer
An honestly good looking man, who
doesn't know anything about it, is four
times as attractive as one whose hand
somer features are blurred with" I know
it," It's an awful shock to give a max
a compliment and then find he was of
the same opinion long before you spoke.
Especially If you didn't mean it, any
way.-Woman correspondent in Detroit

William Johnson. the young colored
man who was arrested a few days
ago for stealing from a freight car,
made a break for liberty this morning
while his case was on trial in the city
court. He dashed out of the door
and ran through the court house and
then made a sprint down the alley,
with Deputy Marshal Lamberson of
the city court and half hundred
others in close pursuit. The marshal
took a few shots at him but only
managed to increase his speed.
He was finally overtaken by Ed Melon
aid, who was awaiting rial in the court
room on a similar charge, after a race of
three blocks. The prosecution had about
made up their minds to allow him to plead
guilty to a minor charge and take a jail
sentence, but it is now very likely that he
