The poa's Tail.

A prominent citizen was on tria charged with harboring a vicious dog.
 The attorney for the defense had been consulting dog expert and had learned that if dog holds his tail ur over his back when he barks he is no, angry, while if he holds 1t straight out behind him he is in belligerent, blood thirsty frame of mind. Anxious to air his newly acquired information. the lawyer began cross questioning the prosecuting witness thus:
 Now. did you notice the position in which this dogs tail was held when he came at yon?"
 q did not" said the witness, ''for that was not the end from which l anticipated injury. I had another end in view. Now, if the dog had been a hornet''-
 ''No levity, sirw thundered the attor- ney. Answer the question. Tn what position was the dogs tail when he came at you"

The kjno's Cock Grower,

In the good old time there was an English court official known as the kings cock crower., It seems a strange office. Why did the king require cock crower. and why could not the common barn door variety serve his majesty's purpose? The reason. as yor shall see, was that the barn door variety cannot be depended upon for times and hours, and he has never been persuaded to ob- serve Lent. Now, this was pious GUS tom and q religious duty. All through Lent the kings cock crower crowed instead of calling the hours of the night in the. palace. He began on Ash Wednesday. when he entered the hall in which the kings supper was served. and then crowed the hour in the pres ence of the royal party. The meaning of the custom is obvious. It was only one of the many ways in which the history of the Christian religion was brought home to the minds of people before the reading of the gospel in the vernacular. The office was continued down to the year 1S22.-London Queen.

arha Greatest Widow.r.v

This Is said to be the title of genu- inc essay evolved some years ago by a boy in a Welsh board school:
 "King Henry VIII. was the greatest widower that ever lived. He was born at Anno Domini in the year 1066. He had 51o wives besides children. The first was beheaded and executed. The second was revoked. She never smiled again. But she said the word Calais would be found on her heart after her death. The greatest man in this reign was Lord Sir Garret wolsey. He was sir named the Boy Bachelor. He was born at the age of 15. unmarried. Henry VIII was succeeded on the throne by his great-grandmother. the beautiful and accomplished Mary, queen of Scots. sometimes known as the Lady of the Laker'

Judamen. Was. Confirmed.

A certain old time justice of tho peace, wishing to bring suit against s citizen, consulted the statutes and found that suits of such character might be brought before any justice of the peace.
 "Well. then" thought he. I'll just try the case myself"
 Straightway he made out a writ against his adversary and signed it..
 On the day set for trial the defendant appeared with counsel. Both gentle. men not unnaturally objected to the constitution of the court.
 Why" demanded the justice, "dc you deny that I am justice of the peace?"
 The lawyer would not contest this point, but argued that such construc. ton of the law was against all sense and reason.
 A vigorous alteration ensued, and then the judge remarked that not for the world would he have two gentle. men suppose him governed by any per. sonal considerations. T will there fore" he added gracefully. render judgment against myself and then appeal to the supreme court"
 But the mischief of 1t was." said the justice, relating the story after. ward. "that when my judgment got to the supreme court it wasNunanimously reaffirmed."

The Dent Worry Theory.

The usual advice given to theNwor rier is, Don't worry" This advice is foolish because impractical. No one can stop thinking one type ofthought except by substituting for it another. Besides, it is dangerous advice. for. even supposing one could mechanical ly put an end to worrying state of mind, he would simply be like an en- gineer who should plant himself on the safety valve of his engine. The energy expended in worry. turned inward on itself, would tear the mental mechanr ism to pieces. No! What the wor- ried man or woman needs evidently is to be taught how to find a health ful outlet for his or her nervous power thus going to waste. If we say Don't worry," let us also be careful to add. But work" and let US also point out what kind of work should be under taken and the spirit in which 1t ought to be done In other words, what the worrier needs is re-education.-Rev. s. s. McComb in Harper's Bazar.

Jefferson Davis Ambition.

Jefferson Davis was man of most sincere conviction and courageous ac- tion, and when the Southern Confeder. acy was about to be organized his sin. gle ambition was the command of the Confederate army. This l had from his own lips at his residence at Beau yoir, Miss, some fifteen years after the war. He told me that when he started for Montgomery, Ala, when the movement began for the organi- zation of the Confectionery he hoped to be called to the command of the army, but before he reached Montgomery he was advised of his election as pro- visionary president. When he reached the new capital of the Confederacy he found 1t impossible to change condi- tions, and he was compelled to accept the presidency, and he entered upon that duty as conscientiously as any public man ever entered upon an of ficial career-Colonel A. k.
