old-fashioned name" Amused, as he
said, by the wears sad wall, a parish.
Toner replies to the vicar, saying the
reason is not far to seek. The custom
Of the parents residing in these parts
is to consult with their incumbent re-
garding the choice of the name for the
offspring. The natural consequence is
that all children born on a saints day
are called after the saint Thus a girl
born on st. Georges day would be
christened Georgiana and one on st.
Clements day Clementina, and so on.

sIeNs USED BY TELEGRAPHERs
Some Queer Reasons for Initials
Placed on Messages.

idSSu OH mcSSd9cos
Telegraph operators always have
personal signs which they place on all
messages they send or receive. Usual
ly they use two of their initials or
take two letters from their names.
For instance, James Black will prob
ably use "JB" as his sign. In many
cases, however, they choose their
signs in peculiar ways.
I'VE once had a man working here
who signed 'KE' because he had taken
the Kelley cure" said a Kansas City
chief operator recently. "He after
ward went back to drinking and then
used b. deriving it from booze.
Another fellow signed 'PS' because
he used to say he received a poor
salary.
"a woman operator we had here
used to sign 'HK, her initials, until
one day her beau Tilted her and mar
ried another girl. After that she
signed 'BH,' which, we understood,
meant broken heart
"In an Eastern Office where I once
worked there was a hoodoo sign. It
was 'KQ.' The first man who used it
there was killed by a train; the next
one went crazy and the third died Of
typhoid fever After that nobody in
the office dared use the hoodoo sign.
The story about its being Jonah
travelled over the country, and today
you'll find very few operators signing

Hint for the Bald.


Mr.. Gillicuddy Miggleberry writes
US as follows:
ut is not generally known that 1t
is a simple matter for bald man to
relieve himself of the one great worry
OF the summer months, /. e., flies get
ting on his bald head 1t is a we'll
Known fact that flies have a marked
Prediction for sugar, and will eat it
In preference to almost anything else.
''If you are bald, and you feel that a
fly has alighted upon your head
which is easily ascertained, as the
feet of the fly will create a slight
tickling sensation as the fly walks
around and around looking for trou-
ble--if fly has alighted on your head,
then take out lump of sugar which
you may carry in your pocket for just
such an emergency. Place the sugar
on shelf at the same altitude as the
top of your head, and the fly will nine
times out of ten leave your Uranium
for the sugar lump.
by watching the sugar, you can see
when it has as many flies as it can
hold; then take another lump from
your pocket and place it beside the
first one. An ordinary lump of sugar
will accommodate from Is to 10 flies
One hundred Jumps of sugar should
be sufficient quantity to carry in the
pocket for ordinary emergencies. -

BRAz0S BEST FOR HOGS.
II. L Singleton. President Of American
Polaud.ChiH Association, Said so
In Address 10 Swine Breeders.

y II. l.. Singleton of North Texas
who enjoys a national reputation
as a breeder and authority on hogs,
and is president of the American
Poland China Association, stated
that Brazos county is three to one
a better country for hog raising
than North Texas. The statement
was made in a talk before a meet
ing OF the Swine Breeders Associ-
alton at the Farmers Congress at
College this week. Mr.. Singleton
says that by growing peanuts
Brazos county will produce more
hog feed on one acre than can be
grown on three acres in the black
lands of North Texas, where it is
necessary to grow corn. Mr.. Sing
Teton says the Brazos county up
lands are considered poor, but they
are not, and can be easily made
productive and remunerative
The statements were brought out |
by the remarks of Mr.. J. Webb
Howell of this city, who was dis
cussing the advantages of hog rails.
ing with peanuts as feed crop in
Brazos county. He says he favors
penuts not only because they afford
the best and cheapest hog feed, but
because the hogs themselves do the
work Of harvesting. On the Howell
stock farm last year the hogs were
urned in on the peanuts the first
II August and were not fed any
hing until February. Their gain
vas continuous and averaged a
'ound a day.
The possibilities of Brazos coun-
y as hog raising country have c
ever been realized, and the same
nay be said of many other crops v
nd products.

MHAcnUM DID NOT WALK.


The Eagle takes the following
from the Navasota Examiner:
A gentleman returning yesterda,
afternoon from Bryan stated that
when Senator Mcdonald Meachum
was last seen he was counting
ties" toward Benchley. eight miles
away, through the broiling sun, en-
route TO Mr.. Dunn's pasture, where
Senator Bailey was billed to make
an address. II seems that when he
arrived at Bryan Mr.. Meachum
found that every vehicle in the
city had departed for the barbecue
and before he would be outdone he
decided 10 walk out there. Imagine
our sedate friend without an UNI
brella, trudging along the right-of
way of railroad in the middle of
the day, headed for no-one knows
where, with the thermometer stand
ing about 40 in the shade. Wheth-
er he finally reached the objective
point deponent sayeth not, but this
we know-the gentleman was
asleep at , O'Clock this afternoon
when the reporter made inquiry as
to his return.
Nc. can prove all alibi on the
"hot footing" charge, although he
may come to it some time under
the anti-pass law. On this occasion
he was an eleventh hour visitor,
aud on alighting from the train
went right up into the air when he
learned that the blowout was ten
miles i'll the country. His COM
posture was soon restored, however.
