In the Same Boat.

The Duke Of Leeds before succeed
ing to his title was active In politics.
Once when canvassing he came upon
an English shoemaker, whose vote be
solicited. Sorry" said the shOemak-
er, but I'm not going to vote for any
blOOmin' aristocrat. 1 can't afford it.
I've got four children to bring up"
That's nothing" replied the duke,
1--WE got FIVE, and they are all girls"
The shoemaker came up and touched
him on the arm. "All right, old chap. "
he said. You shall have my vote. 1t
seems to me we are both in the same
boat, and we'd better stick together"

Gardening In America.

Gardening in America has reached
what one might call the awkward
age" Neither a man nor a country
goes a-gardening in early youth. Men
come to build stately sooner than to
garden finely" as Bacon once said, and
as every garden writing body has re-
peated until Sir Francis in Elysium
must regret he ever made the remark,
which none the less is true. Gardening
is essentially a middle aged enjoyment.
and America being, as nations go, still
young. her garden craft has the faults
Of youth. 1t has its incongruities, in
sarmOnies, and it eften mistakes size
and expenditure for excellence.-Cen-
fury.

THE TURKISH KAIK.
II More Closely Resembles the Com

II More Closely Resembles the Con-
dOla Than Any other Craft.
Crawford, the author, to whose skill
full pen Constantinople is indebted for
one of the most charming volumes ever
issued in it's praise, has a word to say
about the Turkish boatmen and their
vehicle, the kaik
"ConstantinOple owes much" writes
he, Ito the matchlesS beauty Of the
three waters which run together be-
meath it's walls, and much OF their
reputation again has become world
wide by the kaik 1t is disputed and
disputable whether the Turks copied
the Venetian gondola or whether the
Venetians initiated the Turkish kaik,
but the resemblance between them is
so strong as to- make it certain that
they have q common origin. Take
from the gondola the 'felse,' or hood,
and the. rostrated stem and the re-
mainder is practically the kaik. 1t is
of all craft Of its size the swiftest, tna
most easy to handle and the most COM
Portable, and the Turks generally are
admitted to be the best oarsmen in
Europe.
Indeed, they have need to be, for
both the Bosporus and the Golden
Horn are crowded with craft Of every
kind and made dangerous by the swift
est of currents. The distances, too, are
very great and such as no ordinary
Oarsman would undertake for pleasure
or for the sake of exercise. 1t is no
joke to pull fifteen or sixteen miles
against stream which in some places
runs four or five knots an hour"

MAYOR ADVOCATES CITY

that the city would be better served

That the primary system for nomi.

The local union Hnemen desire to
deny that statement that the telephone
linemens strike is practically over in

municated with linemen in Mobile last
night and the statement that the strike

Doctorn and Medicine.

When a doctor does not have much
faith in medicine it is a sign that he is
a good doctor. The best doctors are
those who give good advice rather than
medicine; advice that is simple and
has common sense back Of it. Too
many people imagine they can abuse
themselves and hire a doctor to make
them as well as ever for 81. Nothing

WALKING Backward.

Boys and girls sometimes suffer
from nervous headache, and they
are advised to try simple remedy.
1t is not drug, but is so very sim
pie and harmless that it may be
tried by the most delicate person.
1t is merely the act of walking back
ward. An instructor in physical cul-
ture claims that it is an infallible
remedy. You should walk very
slowly, letting the ball of the foot
touch the floor first, and then the
heel. A few minutes walking gen
orally effects complete cure, ac-
cording to the instructor. He also
claims that walking backward for a
little while every day is the best
way to learn to walk forward easily
and gracefully. Suppose you try it.
1t certainly cannot do you any
harm.

He Had Heard That Name.

The stagecoach that carries the
mail between Kent's Hill and Read
field station in Maine drew up along
the roadside, and the driver accost-
ed little old man working in a
field:
'Do you know who Mrs. Abby b.
Brown is and where she lives ?"
The old man considered. "Brown,
Abby B. Brown" he repeated.
"You don't mean Mrs. Polly Brown,
do you?"
"No; Mrs. Abby B. Brown. We've
got a letter for her"
''B., you say the middle letter is
B, do you? | know a whole lot of
Browns that live on the other side
of the road, but there amt any
Abby B. among them. You don't
mean Abby B. Smith, do you? She
lives OVER
"No; it's Abby B. Brown. Well
find it somehow. Thanks"
The stage driver started his horse,
but before the corner was reached a
faint "Hello" caused the passen-
gers to turn around. The old man,
hoe in hand, was pursuing the stage.
Brown, Mrs. Abby B. Brown,
did you say? Why, [ know her.
She's my wife" ."-Pittsburg Press.

Trades For BOYS.

Few boys take to tasks that re-
quire thought and persistent efforts.
Yet skilled work is the only EN-
ployment in demand.
Hodcarriers and common laborers
glut the markets everywhere. The
tradesmen and artisans are the ones
that get the easiest jobs and the
most money. The others are always
hunting work.
Should they accidentally stumble
upon a job they cannot hold it. A
superficial knowledge will not do.
1t must be thorough.
Boys, learn a trade while young.
After you are twenty years old few
will be found who will take the time
and trouble to teach you one. When
you are that old you will want a
mans pay. If you don't know any
thing you don't get it. Knownoth-
ings work at odd jobs and are paid
the lowest scale.-Gem.

Not Addition.

An editor was talking about the
late Lewis Carroll, author of "Alice
In Wonderland" "The Hunting of
the Shark" and many other delecta-
bile tales.
'Lewis Carroll" he said, "was a
mathematician, but his mind was
not so narrow and crotchety as the
minds of mathematicians usually
are.
Il once heard him say that the
normal mathematician disliked po-
etry. He got into an argument
about poetry with an instructor in
trigonometry on certain occasion,
and, his argument failing, he gave
the instructor Tennyson's Charge
of the Light Brigade to read.
""There, read that he said, 'and
if you don't find it full of beauty
I'll give in
"The instructor sneered, looked
at the page and began to read
"'Half league, half league,

half he snorted, why the deuce
can't he say SO p"

FOR THE LITTLE ONES.
Guards and Robbers ls a Jolly Game to
Play In the House.

This is game that may be play
ed with three or more children.
Choose a room that has two or more
doors, and on the sill of each door
place some small unbreakabe OBJ
ject, like a bean bag or cushion.
One child stays in the room and
guards the bean bags, while the 9th
ers try to get them. OF course the
robbers cannot tell which door the
guard is standing near, so when they
come quietly up to steal the bean
bags they may get caught instead.
If the guard catches child that
child must stay prisoner in the
room. The guard can run out of
the room to chase one of the rob
bers if she wishes to, but she is apt
in that case to have some of the
bean bags stolen from the other
doors. When only one bean bag is
left the game is almost over, for in
that case the guard chases the re-
naming robber or robbers all over
the house till she catches them. OF
course they still try to get the last
bean bag, but it is not so easy. The
guard wins if she catches all the
robbers, and the robbers win if they
capture all the bean bags.
