Long and Remarkable Life.

Suffold tells us Of a remarkable rec.
ord of an old man Of his acquaintance
employed by Mr.. William Lodge. OF
Gorieston-on-Sea. This old gentleman
began his working life as a farm Ia
borer II years ago, before Queen Vic.
toria came to the throne, and at 81 he
can still drive a pillow as we'll as most
men of half his years. Almost more
remarkable is the fact that although
he has spent practically all his long
life within sight of the sea he has
never been on 1t, nor has he ever been
inside a train.-Tit-Bits.

All Kinds Of Animals as Playmates for
the Children.

Children play a great role in French
society, as all those who have read
Gyp's inimitable "P'tit Bob will read
lily admit, and now the small Par
isienne insists on receiving on her
fete day and at the New Year a live
pet, instead of a costly doll or a me-
chanical toy. The demand has been
creating a supply, and a lively trade
is being done. not only in puppies and
kittens, in tiny monkeys and In lambs,
but also in tigers and leopards. Up to
a certain age, these small felines are
quite harmless, and, Of course, as soon
as they begin, so to speak, to show
their teeth and sharpen their claws,
they are sent off to n of the two
magnificent Zoos" with which the
Gay City is provided.

Y. w. C. A. CONFERENCE.
Session VIII de Field al ut. Lake Park
Aug. 28-Sept. 7, 1903.

From three hundred to four hundred
college students, coming from many
institutions Of learning scattered all
over the eastern section of the United
States, will assemble at Mountain Lake
Park, the last week in August and first
week in September of next year as
delegates from the student bodies to
the Young Women's Christian Associa-
ton Conference, which has been ar
ranged to meet at the Park beginning
on August 28th, Immediately after the
close of the Mountain Chautauqua, and
continuing until September 7th.
The young people composing this con-
ference will represent nearly every
female institution of learning east of
the Mississippi, the conference being
an additional one to the string of Con-
ferences conducted by the Association
reaching from the Atlantic to the
Pacific. Each year these conferences
become more and more interesting and
large numbers of delegates are added,
so that with the institution of the
Mountain Lake Park Conference that
resort as well as the entire community
surrounding it will become better
known.
The probabilities are that if the
Mountain Lake Park Conference is the
success it should be the yearly gather
ings Of the delegates will become a per-
manent feature Of the Park.

Jack Parker, an aged and eccentric
man at Hayfeld, Frederick county, Va,
was most scared to death Thursday
night by some boys shooting skyrockets.
He had never seen them before, and
when he saw the strange fire in the sky
he thought the world was going to be
burned up. He first went out with his
shotgun to shoot the angel Gabriel, but
when another bunch went high in the
air with great sound and he couldn t
see Gabriel he ran to the house and
covered up in bed and stayed there till
next day after the sun was high. He
is wicked old man and was not pre-
pared for Gabriel's horn.
