NO STAIN ON HIS RECORD.
That's Where the Driver Had the Best
of the Preacher.

A New York clergyman, who often
spends his vacation in fishing the
streams of the Adirondacks, was on
one trip adopted by a handsome set
ter dog, which insisted on following
him from camp to camp, as he moved
along the stream.
One day he met q party Of men
working upstream with a native guide.
The guide Immediately recognized the
dog as his own property.
Trying to steal my setter, are
you?" he shouted at the clergyman.
I'll have you to Jail for this! There's
a law in the woods just as big as you
have in the city"
The clergyman endeavored to ex-
plain that he was an unwilling COM
panion of the dog, which had refused
to be driven away, but to little effect
until he added a two-dollar bill to his
arguments.
Its queer what strange things hap
pen to q man up here" he said TO the
stage-driver who later carried him
away from the woods. That is the
first time 1 was ever accused OF steal
ing a dog"
Eyes, SIR" replied the driver, SYM
pathetically, and added, after a mo-
ment's pause, For myself, sir, / have
never been accused Of stealing any,
thing."-Youth's Companion.

The Great Musician Had No Use for
His Production.

A great tenor had been singing for
some hours into a photograph.
"The monograph" he said, 'is a
wonderful thing. 1t almost realizes
the wish of the Scottish poet, the wish
that we might see ourselves as others

A Remodelinq Hint.

When buying new goods for an old
dress, considerable care must be exer-
cised to select something that will
make the old goods look better instead
of worse.
It is better to have the new ma
terial of a different texture. For in
stance, new velvet will look better
with old silk; black, that has been
worn some time will look better If
made over with some other color.
If it is desirable TO have the dress
all black, buy the same color black
and change the texture. Black chit.
fon makes a worn cloth lifeless, while
other materials viii! give it a fresh
look.
The bodice Innings are often perfect
ly good while outside is worn out,
needing, perhaps just a cleaning
about neck and waist, and some new
bones and castings.
They can easily be utilized with
little work for the foundations OF the
