Mrs. Hackett's Good Reasons for Wear
 ing Her Best Hat

After reading the weather report and consulting the barometer, Mrs. Hackett breathed long sigh of relief and took her best hat out of its band box. Going to wear that down to breakfast?" inquired MT. Hackett. No, dear said his wife as she tilted the hat back and forth on her head be- fore the mirror T only want to be sure I get my hair done up so the hat will go on right. It's the morning for our psychical research class, you know" q don't quite get the con- nection," remarked MT. Hackett. There, that's just right" and Mrs. Hackett laid the hat carefully back in its box after final glance in the mir TOT. What did you say, dear? The connection? Why, don't you remem- Der told you was going to read that letter from Aunt Luise telling al
 her wonderful dream-the one whe. C she thought she had wings and flew and the very next day she heard of Cousin Grace's automobile accident? Well, of course, when you have to stand and read before whole com pany, you want your best hat on, even if they are ychical.'-Youth's Con- panion.

ALWAYS OVER THE HEART.
Policemen as Rule Wear Their
 Badges as Shields.

Many persons are puzzled to know why policemen wear their badges so low on their coats, instead of on the flap made for that purpose. As mat ter of fact, the badge or star, as he calls it, of many policeman is right next to his heart Some blue coats can thank their stars" for being alive. This little metal shield has de- flected the bullet of burglar or high wayman, and at times, too, has stop ped the knife thrust of would-be assas- sins. During the last 20 or 30 years there are many cases on record show ing that the little badge has been a life saver. Even bullets fired at close range, as rule, cannot penetrate the shield. That's why bluecoat always feels safer in keeping the star at vital spot. When off duty some police men wear their stars on their vests, but always directly over the heart They are so accustomed to the little protector that they feel uneasy with out it.

It is the intention of Prescott buyers this season to bring to Prescott all of the staple that geographically belongs to the town, by adopting such methods as will accomplish this result. A start is made by offering liberal premiums for the first and second bales. This is to be followed by paying the best price the market affords, guaranteeing true and correct weights, and affording ann pie warehouse accommodation to all who desire to hold the staple. The crops most likely is short and that is all the more the reason why extra efforts will be used to get our share of what is made

A rsrrihla p,nishu...

A man suspected OF treason in Mo
rocco was punished by having tho
flesh OF his hand sliced, the wound
filed with salt and the whole hand
sewed up in leather. 1t is n common
belief that this punishment causes
modification to set in and that the
hand decomposes, but such is not the
case, for by the time the leather wears
or the hand Is healed, the result being
that the hand is rendered useless and
remains closed forever. 1t is a punish
ment not often in use, but Is some
times done In cases of murder or con-
slant theft as, without in any way in
juring the health OF the man, 1t pre-
vents his committing the crime sec
ond time or for the hundredth time,
as the case may be. 1t Is a punish
ment that cannot be applied except by
the sultan's orders.-B lackwood's Mag.

Emergency Foods.

According to Or. Robert Hutchinson
of London, II at any time meat is not
available. bread. sugar and eggs will
make "a very respectable support for
the body" Sugar is an exceedingly
valuable article of food as a source of
energy. the unfortunate thing about II
being that 1t contains no heterogeneous
matter. Bread, however. does contain
some; hence it balances up well when
combined with sugar. In times OF
scarcity OF food bread and molasses is
not half bad diet--at least It can be
relied ON to keep the body up to fair
state OF efficiency

Recently wearied looking little
mother, carrying small baby, boarded
a street car and took seat next to
two men who were earnestly engaged
In conversation. Neither OF the men
was very handsome, and II must have
required considerable nerve on their
part to hand out their photographs
among their friends unless the pictures
had been previously retouched with
sandpaper. In few minutes the baby
began to cry with reliable yelp that
could be heard above the din of the
street babble for half block. and,
with a grouchy glance at the young.
Eter, one Of the men arose and peevish.

During each winter for two or three

seven Andrew jackson was sent TO tie

this he attended the select school which

David Humphreys, taught In the Wax.
haw settlement. He appears to have
been going to this higher school In the
spring of 1850, when the inroad of Tar
Teton created panic in that portion OF
the Carollnas. At some later period of
his youth he Is said to have attended
the old Queen college or seminary at
Charlotte a couple of terms, but the
time Is not definitely known
AS to education, therefore, II may be
safely stated that Andrew Jackson en-
Joyed much more than the ordinary ad-
vantage OF backwoods boys OF his
time. At the age of ten he had become
so good a reader that he was often
chosen to read the newspaper to the
assembled nelghbors. and he remem-
bered with pride in after years that he
had thus had the honor of reading out
