He Settled II.

An amusing story Is told at STRAIT
ord-on-Avon. In the smoking room
of n hotel there an Englishman ana n
Scotchman engaged In a heated argu-
mcnt. John Bull was declaring VIII
liam Shakespeare TO be the only poet
of the world. and Donald Mcpherson
was standing up for his Robert Burns.
Words ran high and blows seemed
imminent when n self confident little
commercial traveller determined to
throw oil on the troubled waters.
Gentlemen" he said. stepping be
tween the heated disputants, "let me
settle this amicably. Who is this

Wireless Money Lending.

One Of the most interesting types on
the American track is the professional
money lender. Money lending Is alb
solutely forbidden, and so the entire
transaction must be conducted sub
rosa, but II a person who Is on goes
broke and he has some article of jew
elry of value with him 1t Is easy for
him to realize money on 1t.
The lender is In i~rreproachably
dressed person who sits on the grand
stand with the rest Of the crowd and Is
known In his true colors only to the
habitues Of the track. A man who
wants some capital makes an unobtru.
sive sign to him and twirls a rim: he
may be wearing at the time. Shsrtly
afterward both will proceed to n res
taurant, where, for the benefit of on
lockers, they will greet each other as
ordinary acquaintance. The exchange
Is then made over the drink they order;
the loan broker has the ring and the
bettor his capital. II the latter cashes
in on the next race he will return the
money and the agreed upon premium
and will receive back his ring.-From
"The People and the POnies," by G. L,
Peters, In Bohemian.

Indestructible Cat.

While %expOunding to his wife the
alleged fact that men can control their
tempers better than women can. Mr..
Kinks fell over the cat and nearly
broke his nose.
THAT settles it," he Kissed. "Tve
often threatened, but now III drown
the brute!'
His wife begged him to be merciful.
but his mind vas made up.
Accordingly he placed the offending
feline, along with two large bricks,
In an old flour sack and fastened upon
his murderous errand. On reaching
the canal he threw in the bag with
such vigor that he Overbalanced and
fell into the muddy water. After strug.
Cling for half an hour and incidentally
drinking half the water In the canal,
he returned home wet and weary.
AT the door sat the cat.
"Well, Of ALL exclaimed Kinks.
'Why, l drowned the brute!"

she let him In. "You didn't give me
time to tell you that there was a hole
In that bag!"--London Answers.

Waves Of Water.

Waves are deceptive things. To look
Mt them one would gather the impress
sion that the whole water travelled
This, however, is not so. The water
stays In the same place, but the mo
ton goes III. In great storms waves
are sometimes forty feet high, and
their crcsts travel fifty miles an hour.
The base Of a wave dhe distance from
valley to Valley Is usually considered
as being fifteen times the height Of
the wave. Therefore a wave twenty
five feet high would have a base ex-
tending 375 feet. The force of waves
breaking on the shore Is seventeen
tons to the square inch.

constrain himself no longer, he began,

THE PURE FOOD LAW!

The pure food law enacted at the
last session of congress became oper-
ative on the first day of the year. The
authors of the measure believe it
will put an effectual stop to the sale
of adulterated and impure foods and
drugs, confectionery and liquors.
The abuses sought to be corrected, it
is asserted, are numberless, but here
after it will be possible for consum-
ers to know precisely what they are
receiving for their money. Articles
under the heads already enumerated
will have to be what they purport to
be, if the law is complied with. A
large number of inspectors working
under the supervision of the depart
ment of agriculture, will watch
dealers of all sorts to see that they
do not violate the law. Offenses
against the law will be punishable
by fine or Imprisonment or both. 1t

Every citizen in the United States
ought to be personally interested in
seeeing that this law becomes effect
i've in all it's provisions, for it is a
notorious fact that there is now on
the market great quantity Of i'm
pure food that has been prepared
solely for profit and without regard
to its purity. Unscrupulous manu-
facturers, who have been outraging
the public by fraudulent deception
in adulteration, should be made to
feel the effects of this law and all
of them should be forced to deal fair
ly and justly with the public.-Ex-

PULLMANS ARE COMMON CAR
RIERS.

The Texas railroad commissioner
has issued an order declaring Pull
man cars common carriers and provid-
ing that all such operated in Texas
shall be subject to the same rules
as the railroads. In their usual
spiteful manner, recognizing MO law,
the Pullmans will retaliate by with
drawing their service from the state
entirely Or will operate only tourists
sleepers and seek to prevent inter
ference with their through business
under the protection of the interstate
laws. 1t is to be hoped that the Texas
commission will find the law and the
opportunity to bring this arrogant
company to time.-Messenger, Oko-
Iona, Miss.
