JOKE ON A woMAN's HEIRS.
Package Thought Valuable Surprises
the Lawyers When Opened.

There is such a thing as carrying
joke too far. Six years ago an Eng
lisA woman who was travelling in
Canada deposited in the vaults of q
Toronto trust company a parcel care
fully bound and secured with a NUNS
Der of imposing seals. 1t was un-
derstood that the parcel contained
jewels of great value and therefore
it was guarded with jealous care.
A few weeks ago the English wom-
an died, and in a clause in her viii
made mention Of the deposit in trust
in Toronto. After due process Of
law it was ordered that the seals be
broken in the Canadian city. Heirs
in the old land and one in a far dis
tant point in Canada sent their re-
spective lawyers to be present at
the opening of the valuable pack
age. On the day appointed the law
yers assembled in a private office
Of the trust company. Here is a
correspondents description of the
scene hal followed:
cred seals On the outside of the
bundle were first broken, then an
array Of green colored seals was
encountered. After this wrapping
came fold after fold Of paper. Then
the lawyers saw an oblong %pasteboard
box, also carefully sealed. The ex-
element was almost intense. Beads
Of perspiration stood out on the
learned brows Of the privileged few
present. With the unfolding Of each
successive wrapping around the box
they expected to see the glitter of
gold and the luster Of diamonds. At
last with nervous fingers it was
onened the treasure seamad near at
hand. Two more folds of paper
were undOne and several pairs of
legal eyes saw an innocent and
faded pair Of c%orsets."
Nothing is known Of the motive
of leaving the faded pair of cor
sets in a deposit vault.

EXPLORATIONS Or PIKE.
They Had Political Consequences Not
Foreseen at That Time.


Gen. Eebulon Pixies explorations
of 1SO6-1SO7 had political conse-
quences which neither Pike nor any,
body else in his day could foresee,
says the Review of Reviews. Al
though he was well treated by the
Spaniards, his capture by them in
tensifed the desire of Americans, es-
pecially in the west, to drive Spain
out of Mexico. Written in 1903 and
published in 1910, his report point
ed out the wealth of Mexico's nat
ural resources, showed the weakness
of SPANS hold on that country, and
urged her expulsion by an American
army if Bonaparte should seize the
Spanish throne, which Bonaparte
did while Pike was writing, and
held it for six years.
Pixies report sent Magee, Kem-
per, Long and other adventures
from our side of the line over into
Texas and other parts of Mexico.
More important still, it melted
Moses Austin to get from Ferdi-
nand Wis representatives in 1920
permission to establish a colony of
Americans in Texas, which his son,
Stephen F. Austin, planted there in
1922. When the Mexicans soon aft
erward drove Spain out the inev-
liable conflict with the Americans
began, which eliminated in Sam
Houston's victory over Santa Anna
at San Jacinto in 1886, and the es-
Enlistment Of the Texas republic.
By the annexation Of Texas in
1845 the United States inherited
Texas boundary dispute with Mex
leo, and this led to the war of 1896
1916, which, throusgh. conquest eaqses end :
purchase, placed the stars and stripes
over the present New Mexico, Ari-
iona Except that part below the
ella, which Gadsden bought in
1859, California, Nevada, Utah,
and parts of Colorado and Wyoming,
and pushed our territory in the
southwest onward to the Pacific.
While the American and Mexican
commissioners were fixing up their
peace pact at Guadalupe Hidalgo in
the opening days Of 184S, James W.
Marshall made his gold discovery in
the raceway Of Suffers mill, on the
American fork Of the Sacramento,
which made California knock for ad-
mission as a state before the poll
ticians had time to organize it as
a territory, melted the search which
led to the gold and silver strikes in
Nevada, Colorado, Montana and
other parts Of the west, and swung
the country's center of political grav-
ity far toward the sunset.

THE FARMER GROWS WISER.

"You can't fool the farmer any
more on merchandise for his farm"
said the proprietor Of an agricultural
store as he wrote down a large or
der for a certain fertilizer. Cline
was when you could sell a farmer
anything in the way of fertilizer and
no questions asked. 1t was a fat
time for the manufacturers Of fer
~tilizers, but that time is all past.
Now the man who tills the soil must
know all about what the market of
fers for enriching crops. He insists
that he be given the formula of every
fertilizer on the market, and he
knows whether too much phosphor-
us, potash, etc, predominates.
Gle knows what his soil needs
most; he understands that certain
crops demand a certain sort of en-
richment Of the earth, and that
other crops necessitate an entirely
different sort Of enrichment. In the
old days he'd dump anything on his
land and trust to luck that thing;
would grow all right. Same way
with tools. He won't buy a farming
implement until he has some actua
knowledge of its worth.
cts all because of the agricul
! tural colleges which spread agricul
tural information gratis into IN
country towns, so that a farmer cal

MOTTO FOR A CEMETERY,

Grand Recorder Fearing, Of the
Massachusetts, A. 0. q. W., tellsIthe
following story as showing the posi-
ton of fraternal insurance: .
A merchant who had amassed a
large fortune retired from business
and returned to his native town to
spend his remaining days. He made
many valuable gifts to the town,
finally presenting to it a tract Of
land, surrounded by a handsome
wall and having a splendid arched
entrance, to be used as a cemetery.
In this he took great pride, and often
walked out to view it.
One morning while thus engaged
he met at the entrance Pat Clancy.
the village wit. After some desul-
tory talk he said: "Pat, there is
'only one thing lacking to make this
cemetery complete; that is a motto
! to be inscribed on this gateway
nat would you suggest as a suit.

Pat scratched his head for a mo.
ment, and then said: @How would
this do, sor-We have come t.

TOLEDO MARRIAGE RITUAL.

The Rev, Herbert Thurston, s. J.,
a an interesting historical study of
The Marriage Ritual of Toledo"
n the course of which he traces the
changes which have occurred in sew
eral of the marriage services of Eu-
rope shows that the betrothal and
the marriage services have been
blended into one, and suggests that
the wedding ring was originally the
engagement ring. 1t was also placed
finally on the third finger of the
right hand, as it still is on the con-
tinent, and not on the left hand, as
In this country. The Toledan ritual
lacks the solemn words 'for better,
for worse; for richer, for poorer
80. till death us do part" but
there is a passage in it which Father
Thurston observes does not occur in
the medieval rituals of England,
France or Germany. Taking the
bride by the right hand, the priest
gives her into the charge of the
bridegroom, saying; 81 give you a
helpmate and not a slave. Love her
as Christ loved his church." The
%"worldly goods" we're typifed in the
Spanish royal marriage by 10 gold
coins given to the bride. Originally
payment was made to the father in
purchase Of the bride, and when this
system went out Of use it probably
became necessary to point out that
the bride was no longer to be con-
sidered a slave.

o SLAVES.

A Chicago barber has on a corner
table a fine pocket microscope and a
framed announcement that says;
"Do you know what a close shave
means? BRING a friend here, if you
don't, have him shaved close, and
then look at his face through this
microscope. The entire skin will
resemble a piece Of raw beef.
"To shave the face perfectly
smooth requires not only the re-
moval Of the hair, but also a por-
ton of the cuticle; so that a close
shave means the removal of a layer
Of skin all around. The blood YES
sells thus exposed are not visible to
the eye, but under the microscope
each little %quivering mouth, holding
a minute blood drop, protests against
such treatment. Bring a friend and
seei
"The nerve tips are also uncov-
cred by close shaves, and the pores
are left unprotected, which makes
the skin tender and unhealthy. This
sudden exposure Of the inner layer
of the skin renders a person liable
to colds, hoarseness and sort
throats."
