constituting the acts of an unlawful

rartment of government must undergo
a radical and speedy change. In some
manner or other it must be shorn of it's

He Worked For It.

Some years ago there lived in Arkan-
sas a man named Reynolds, who
owned a narrow gauge railroad from
Malvern Junction to Hot Springs. 1t
was partly due to the fact that he had
put by a neat little fortune and partly
to his habit of wearing an enormous
diamond shirt stud that he had won
the nickname of Diamond Joe'
1t was Diamond Joe's boast that no
one had ever stolen q ride on his little
twenty-five mile road, and not content
with telling this to his friends he Of
fered a reward of 800 and q suit of
clothes to the man who could do it.

came into his office, dripping from
head to foot

row gauge, involuntarily glancing out
to see If it was raining.
"Well, I've come for that suit of

How Do You Lauch7

Laughter varies greatly. In the right
kind there is something contagious,
even if oneself be the cause of it. 1t is
the product of good humor; there is
nothing concealed behind it. Frank.
spontaneous and whole souled, 1t has a
beneficial effect both on the laugher
and his hearers.
But there are other kinds of laugh
ter. OF these the sneering laugh is the
most familiar. Then there Is the quiet
laugh-a sibilant, secretive sort of
thing. which is almost invariably a
sign of mischief Another laugh, dis
agreeable to hear. is high pitched and
nervous sounding. 1t is the outcome of
embarrassment or merely vocal hab-
it
Perhaps the worst laugh of all Is the
mirthless sound occasioned by the dis
tress or embarrassment of others, and
1t invariably wounds most the butt of
it. A person who has been thus laugh
ed at and hurt is never lively to forget
the experience.-Liverpool Mercury.

question was. How could the family
be protected? At last they arrived at
the conclusion that the only way to
protect the father and mother was to
take extreme measures with the son,
which they did with vengeance. The
father and uncle took him out among
the graves, followed by a crowd of
curious neighbors and friends, and
putting a rope around his neck. each
relative pulled on an end, and the son

The Ale Stake.

With the opening up of England by
the Romans hostleries sprang up for
the convenience of travellers. AS time
went on the selling of liquor became
so lucrative that wherever the traveller
broke his journey his thirst might be
quenched. This naturally produced
competition among the many tavern
owners, especially in the large towns,
who We'd with one another as to the
means of attracting the thirsty. 1t
was in these circumstances that the
''ale stake" or pole, to which was at
tached a furze bush, first came into
prominence. In 1875 these signs be-
came so great nuisance that q law
was passed to the effect that sale
stakes" projecting more than seven
feet over the kings highway were pro-
hibited, fact which gave rise to the
proyerb that .sgood wine needs nc

twenty of which gave up their lives in
the transfer.
1t took most of the day to move Mrs.
Ross household goods and chattels
from her old abode to the new quart

Thirty-eights streets. The last act
was to place the twenty -four blooded
chickens in a temporary coop. 1t was
a tight fit, but Mrs. Ross figured that
as the distance was only a few blocks
away, the move could be accomplished
with safety. What was her horror,
however, when the chickens arrived, to
find all but four of the fowls dead and
