Much Used Weddinu Present,

A Providence girl, who has been
married about six months, had we'd
ding cards a short time ago from an
old school friend who had given her a
wedding present, which, of course, de-
manded one in return. Among her
wedding presents the Providence girl
had duplicates in the shape of two
silver card trays, and in a spirit of
economy she decided to give one Of
these to her friend 1t was marked
with her own initials, but it would be
only a matter of few minutes to
have them removed and the proper
monogram cut
She took it to the jeweler and ex-
planned what was to be done. He
picked up the tray, looked at it close
ly and smiled.
MADAME" said he, lit will be i'm
possible. I have already changed the
initials on this same tray five times,
and it has worn so thin that l can
not do it again without cutting through

Uncommon Use.

A young couple moved into a new
fat which had never been occupied.
The young wife was proving about
with a pan full of hooks, big and lit
tie, inserting them in proper places
for the hanging of clothes, etc. In
one place the wood seemed too hard
for the screw of the hook to enter
and she got a gimlet to make little
preliminary hole. The gimlet didn t
work either, and she called to her
husbands: Harry, I wish you'd see if
you can make this gimlet go in
Harry came, looked and laughed.
Your difficulty speaks better for
your morals than your mechanics, my
dear,' said he; YOU'RE trying to bore
a hole with the corkscrew."

Trials Of the Missionary

DR.. John Gibson Patton, the mission
airy, told in his autobiography how de.
pressed he was when he first arrived
in the New TIebridos in 1858. The ma
tives were in their war lpint and
nakedness; a fight was going on, and
five or six men had been killed. His
native servant, who went out to pro-
cure water for tea, came back with
out it. The savagcs had cooked and
eaten the dead bodies at the only
available spring; had washed the
blood into the water and had bathed
in it. The missionary drank cocoanut
water for good while after that.

A young man from the rural dis

TIE action of several mining
companies in despoiling leyalized
county roads across land under
their control has seriously incon-
vcnienced settlers on several of the
roads to adjacent farm sections
this spring, to such an extent as to
demand the attention Of the com
missioner. These roads arc sup
posedly protected by law, and while
no serious objection could or would
be made to any company changing
the route when found necessary,
the provision that such changes
should be made as to continue the
road in case of the original route
being torn up should be rigidIy en-
forced.

waxed paper that it is good economy
to save every scrap that comes into

be saved from cracker boxes and many

candy, seedless raisins and other
fruit are lined with very good quail
