While a woman was waiting to de- posit five dollars in New England savings bank she saw a man draw out $900. She had never before seen 70 much money at once. and concluded that the bank could not stand such a heavy drain on it's resources. She told her friends about it, and the news spread that the bank was in danger. A run" followed, and the depositora were not satisfied that the bank was sound until between ten and twenty thousand dollars had been withdrawn The men who read this paragraph need not say that the thing would not have happened if 1t had not been for silly woman.

German Sunday Schools"

Tn England the term Sunday school" has definite meaning, and is exclusively used to denote a place of religious teaching. Tn Germany, however, the race for commercial supremacy has led to the establishment of Sunday schools at which mechanics are given practical instruction in their trades. There is, for exam pie, a school for masons, at which the students, many of them me. chanics who work during the week, spend several hours on Sun. day morning in learning the high. CT branches of their craft. Sim ilarly there are Sunday schools for tailors, ironmongers, bookbind CTS, and followers of other trades
 even barbers and blacksmiths.

William c. Harris, angling ed itor of Outing, and rightly called the Izaak Walton of America, is a man who can come pretty near to telling exactly what fish you will find in Blank brook, in Blank township of Blank county, Idaho, Texas or Rhode Island. New fish es and new facts about them, he loves as miser loves gold, only he does not hoard them, but gath. ers them to give out again.
 One day Harris chanced to be in St. Paul. He was talking with General Passenger Agent Charley Fee, who said Harris should go to Montana to catch grayling In ' stream at that time much adver. tised.
 Harris said there were no gray Ming in the stream. The railroad man laughed at him as a New Yorker who pretended to know more about a certain Montana river than man who had f1shedi It

In 36 hours he was On the stream with a local represen- tative of the railroad. He waded in, made one cast, and was fast to . silvery thing that tore about nightly like that of a grayling. It came to the net, and the local representative of the railroad fairly shouted:

 "Pack this carefully in moss," said Harris. "Send it to your gen. eral passenger agent" Then he walked to the telegraph office and wired that official: U

Every pair, in the breast, diff fcult breathing, palpitation, futtering or dizzy spell means that your heart is straining it. self in its effort to keep in motion. This is dangerous.
 Some sudden strain from over exertion or excitement will completely exhaust the nerves, or rupture the walls or arteries of the heart, and it will stop.
 Relieve this terrible strain at once with Dr. Miles Heart Cure. It invigorates and strengthens the heart nerves and muscles, stimulates the heart action, and relieves the pain and misery.
 Take no chances; make your heart strong and vigorous with Dr. Miles Heart Cure.

A MAN AND. HIS SHOES.

"You can almost tell from what country a man comes by the weight of his shoes" said J. w. Davy, of Chicago, who represents . shoe company, to a Milwaukee Sentinel reporter. "You might not believe it." he continued, "but the thicker the soles of his shoes the larger the city from which he comes. In New York it is almost a fad, and the soles of the shoes there are exceedingly heavy. They are almost as heavy in Chica 20. Men there wear shoes to pro feet their feet. They have not time enough, it seems, to bother with rubbers. So they make one pair of shoes do the work for all kinds of weather. Here in Mill waukee and in. other cities of this size, I notice, the men wear light shoes and rubbers. I suppose they have time enough to wear the overshoes. Up in the country l find that in many places leather boots are not worn at all for sav. eral of the winter months. They wear heavy socks and then put rubber overshoes over these"

"A dead- homer WAS another curious expression nsed in a London police court The de- tective said 1t was well-known express sion used by person when he could not very well free himself from charge which was hanging over his head. In the case in question the charge was that of stealing lead. It was unfortunate for the prisoner that he was a dead homer"
 A "gawkrodger. "scrammy,"" "caggy." and "cuddypaw" are all different Eng fish names for left-handed man. But . "jambiste" Is about the latest name.

The defendant denied that he rs- ceived any lessons. but said that he sim ply attended the dancing classes as . 1ambiste. A jambiste, 1t is explained, is . young society man who occupies hts leisure hours by acting as an auxiliary at a school of dancing. He Is there for the purpose of dancing with any of tho women who are In want of partner. It appears that he furnishes his services at the dancing school gratuitously.
