From the Philadelphia Record.
Poultney Bigelow aid the other day
of the chicken farm that he is about to
set up at Maiden:
II hope we succeed with the farm. I
hope our experience won't too closely
resemble that of my old friend, Horatio
Rogers.
Rash Rogers lived in the suburbs.
On the suburban train one morning he
said to me with a sour laugh:
I've got something nobody else has
got, Mr.. Bigelow.'
"'Have you. Rash?' said I. What
Is it,?
well said Rogers, I bought a $50
incubator last month, put SIS worth of

Twelve years ago few people in the

profit, otherwise, you would never be Of

Wise and Otherwise.

Many Of US really work up to the
point Of believing we are personally
honest until the assessor comes
around.
Some men who publicly preach the
doctrine Of good cheer seldom smile at
the breakfast table.
Strange that persons who declare
their unbelief in God will always look
over their shoulder when passing a
cemetery in the night.
One disagreeable person can keep q
shadow over an entire household.
The way to make friends is to be
friendly. One seldom crosses tho

From the Young's Magazine.
There is nothing English. about the
humor OF George Graves. the comedian
in that excellent comic opera, THE
Little Michus." Here's one Mr.. Graves
brought from across the water that is
as funny as any homemade article.
A teacher had been telling her class
of boys that recently worms had be-
come so numerous that they destroyed
the crops, and 1t al necessary to Inn
port the sparrow to exterminate them.
The sparrows multiplied very fast, and
We're gradually driving away our ma

tive, and the teacher. thinking to catch
him mapping, said:

worms or sparrows?"
Johnny hesitated a moment inc then
replied: please, I never had the spar

RETURN Of FRANCO

PARIS, April S.-King Manuel Is ne

10 return from Genoa 10 Lisbon. and
resume his old occupation OF governing
Portugal, according to reports from re-
liable sources.
His majesty is said to have become
convinced that no one else can manage
the Portuguese. The cabinet he Installed
shortly after King Carlos assassina-
ton has not been much OF a success.
Almost uninterrupted disorders have
marked its administration.
IN short. the present government is
quite as unpopular as was Franco s,
without the latter's capacity for com
polling respect. 1t carried the recent
elections, to be sure, but it only did 1t
at the cost OF altogether too open po-
HUcal ''cOarseness," and. even at that,
not without riots and blOodshed.
Besides, there would probably not
have been a government victory at all
but for the cooperation q the old
''ErancOists' who rendered valuable as
s.stance. made a strong showing at the
polls, and will be well rep esented In
the next cortes.
