Force of Habit.

George w. Wallace, president Of the
Rocky Mountain Bell Telephone COM
pany, and one of the best known resi-
dents of Salt Lake, tells this as his
latest telephone story:
In a certain Western central office
one hello girl was always late in ar
irving in the morning. Time and
time again the manager pleaded with
her to be more prompt. Her tardi-
ness continued until he was moved to
desperate methods.
Now, Miss B" he said one
morning as he came to her exchange
with a package in his hands, Il have
a little scheme which l hope will
enable you to arrive at the Office on
time. Here is a fine alarm clock for
you. Promise me that you will use
it."
The young woman promised and &C
cordingly set the alarm clock for the
proper hour when she retired that
night. AT Z o'clock the next morning
there was a tremendous whirring
from the alarm clock. The sleepy
hello girl rolled owe in bed and said
sweetly:
Line busy, call again."

Willie Wanted His apad.u

When Willie Simmonds of McIn-

moved to Boston, leaving Willie in
McIndoes. After a while Willie de-
cided to join them, so started out
alone for the big city.
He had never been in the city be-
fore, and thought every one should
know every one else, as in the town
where he came from. Arriving in
Boston, he was rather surprised at
the greatness of everything and at
the number of people on the streets.
After looking around for a while,
and not seeing any n that he knew,
he finally saw a man in uniform
whom he thought must be a very i'm
portant person, and would certainly
know his father. So he walked up
to the surprised officer and asked:

Bad Stomach Makes

You can not make sweet butter in a

ness to Make Point.
During the first hearing of the IA
nous Croker will case in the SUI
preme court, before Judge Lathrop
and a jury, there were many inter
esting and amusing tits between the
eminent counsel engaged in the case
Robert NJ. Morse for the contestants
Of the will, and Col. Joseph H. Ben
ton, Jr., for the executors.
Perhaps at no time during the hear
ing, however, was there any better ex-
hibition of wit than in the summing
up of counsel before the jury. At
II point Col. Benton was trying to
impress upon the jury that the ex-
preston "old fool" alleged to have
been used by n of the interested
parties, might reasonably be construed
as a term of endearment.
For example" explained Col. Ben
ton, King Lear called his fond daugh-
ter, my dear pretty fool"
Here he waited a moment to let the
point sink into the minds OF the jury.
Judge Lathrop, however. who had
been listening with intense interest
leaned forward in his chair and dryly
remarked:
But, Mr.. Benton, King Lear was
crazy, wasn't he?"
well, your honor, that's a mootec
question: was all that the confused
attorney could reply, and even this
was almost smothered by the mirth

which the opposing counsel, Mr.
Morse, joined most heartily.

EUROPE PRESERVED BY TRIPLE.
Vanity Of Musa Kept Him From Lead
ing Moslems az Tours.

fN%kN Fhtl IOfH LEAQ-
ing Moslems az Tours.
The most striking case in history
OF the Importance of trines is fur
nished by the story of Musa, the lead
er Of the Moslem host which won
from Christendom in three and a half
years dominions which it took the sol
diers of the cross twenty generations
to win back.
He had a red beard; this was a
trife. Musa, though a very great
general, was a very vain man, and
he dyed his beard black. This was
another trile. One of his captains
chaffed him on the subject and Musa
forthwith had him stripped and
s%courged.
For this, at the very height of his
conquering career, he was recalled by
the caliph and d~isgraced. This made
1t impossible for him to command the
Moslem army at the battle of Tours
on the issue of which, as all histor.
ians agree, the destinies of Europe
and perhaps of the whole human race
depended.
1t is almost certain that, if the
genius of Musa had replaced the in
competence Of the h~alf-dozen tribal
leaders, whose discussions made vic
tory possible, the forces of Islam
would have joined hands from the
west to the east and inclosed Europe
in their grasp.-Stray Stories.

To Prevent Metal Rustinq.

4 good mixture which will prevent
the rusting of machinery, says an
English publication, is made by dis
solving one ounce Of camphor in one
pound of melted lard. After the i'm
purities have been SKINNED, black
lead should be added to give the
whole an iron color. After cleaning
the machinery carefully and smearing
it with the mixture it can be left in
definitely, or if wiped on after TWEEN
ty-four hours it will obviate rust for
some time. When removed, the metal
should be polished with a soft cloth.
