Serious Fer Once.

All army captain OF returning home
from India brought with him Il goOdly
stock Of souvenirs. Among them was
a pair Of laughing jackasses, which he
intrusted to one Of the sailors. Tom
Pinch.
Alas! The unaccustomed shipboard
life did not agree with the creatures,
and in spite Of all Toms care they
pinned and finally died.
When he discovered the catastrophe,
Tom was in despair.
Il daren't tell the captain"
Don't sLirk it, mate" said his pal.
Break it to him gently. You'll find
it'll be all right"
The advice seemed sound, and Tom
sought the gallant captain.

larfin' jackasses? Well, sir, they amt
got muffin to larf at this morning.

WINNING A COAT.
Tho Clever Scheme That Was Worked
bv a French Thief.

A Frenchlnan had been attending the
Coincide Franchise, and after the per-
Torrance he took a gloomy byway in
order to make a short cut to the Bou-
levard Montmartre. He noticed as he
FASTENED through the dark a slight tug
on his coattail, but to this he paid no
attention. When he reached the bright
boulevard, however, he found. to lis
great modification, that II tail of his
clawhammer coat had been cut off.
He notified a journalist of his loss, and
the next morning an account of the
odd theft appeared in the Figaro. That
afternoon a man in a blue uniform
called On him.
Il come, monsieur" the man said,
from the bureau of police. We have
captured a suspicious character who
had in his pocket a piece Of fine black
cloth. Let me have your mutilated
coat, sir. If the piece fits it, w will
know that we have apprehended the
man who robbed you"
The other surrendered his coat, and
from that day to this he heard no more
about it. The pretended official was,
Of course, the thief, who had adopted
that aduacious means of getting the
| coat in order to attach to it the pur
Joined tail.

OUR TIME STANDARDS.
The Four Sections That Divide the
United States.

Every nation has its own time stand
ard, but the United States has four.
These time sections, as they are called,
were introduced in the year 1883,
chiefly for the benefit of the railroads,
and are known as the eastern, central,
mountain and Pacific. The eastern
section extends from the Atlantic coast
to an irregular line drawn from De-
troit to Charleston, S. c.; the central
includes ali between this line and an
other extending from Bismarck, N. D.,
to the mouth of the Rio Grande river;
the mountain extends from here to the
western boundary Of Montana, Idaho,
Utah and Arizona, and the Pacific in
cludes all the remainder of the coun-
try to the Pacific coast.
The difference in time between ad-
joining sections is one hour, sc that
when it is IL o'clock in New York city
1t is II o'clock at Chicago, 10 o'clock at
Denver and 0 o'clock at San Francisco.
The true local time Of any place is
slower or faster than the standard
time, according as the place is west
or east of the time meridian. Thus the
local time at Boston is sixteen minutes
faster than eastern standard time,
while at Buffalo it is sixteen minutes
slower.-Harper's Weekly.

FINDINGS NOT KEEPINGS.
Lost Articles Are Always Crying Out
For Their Owners.

Lost Articles Are Always Crying Out
For Their Owners.
When II is on the public thorough
fare or in the street a or train or
boat and picks up an object that is
valuable, is it his?
True, he may find something which
is too small and trifling to warrant
searching to find the owner, such as Il
handkerchief, a pair of gloves, etc.
But when he finds something Of value
it Is not his until he has done every
thing in his power to find the owner.
The street railways and trains are
SO systematized today that if, when
one finds an object of value. he re-
turns it to the company's representa-.
tive it is almost sure to catch up with
its owner. Every person Of intelli-
gence knows that the first place to
inquire for it is at the lost and found
department.
When. however. one is on the street
and finds something which. if he lost
it himself. he would very much like to
have returned, there are the columns
Of Il newspaper in which to advertise.
If he fails to find the owner after
this. then he can rightfully call it his
W and have Il clear conscience, but
If he avoids looking over the lost anj
found columns and fails to do his part
toward finding the Owner he is almost
as dishonest as if he took the goods

r DIDN'T NEED IT.-.ss
Why a Scotch Farmer Refused a Por.
ton Of Dessert.


Could the funny sayings and Incl
dents at the tenants' dinners in Scot
land be collected they WoIll make an
~unrivaled book of hunlor. Mistakes of
amusing ana sometimes embarrassing
nature occur freQucStly at such func-
tons. One story is told of Il =lcst at
a Scottish tenants dinner who tasted
ice cream for the first time on that &C.
casion. He pushed Il large spoonful of
the frozen mixture into his mouth and
jumped from his chair with agony ex-
pressed IN his face. He let out a yell
and cried out, COW, ow, ma rotten
tooth!' and could not be induced to
eat any more.
At another Scottish affair of the kind
a good old farmer was seated next to
the hostess. She served him a bit Of
savory omelet, which seemed to cause
the old man deep disappointment. His
idea of an omelet had always been a
dessert with sugar or fruit or jams,
and after tasting the sample before
bim he turned to the hostess and said,
"Weel, ma lady, l Gamma compliment
you on your puddin's."
The late Duke of Buccleuch told a
story Of a tenant at one Of the farmers
dinners on his estates who was asked
by the duchess If he would take some
rhubarb, a dish she was fond Of. The
farmer was surprised, but answered
politely, I'm muckle obleeged to your
grace, but l dinna' need it."

MOHAln AND ALPACA.
These Fabrics Come From Two En-
tire!y Different Animals.

"The other day l heard Il couple of
me- arguing about mohair and alpaca,
one of them gravely asserting that
they We're different James for the same
fabric" said Il New York importer.
1.-THE assertion was very far out Of
the way. The cloth known as alpaca,
If genuine, comes from the wool Of the
animal of the same name, which
thrives only in the Andean regions
Of Peru and Chile in South America.
The alpaca, or pace, which resembles
the llama, looks a good deal like our
domestic sheep and has q most beautt-
full fleece. Great f1ocks Of them browse
III the highest ranges Of the Andes
and are the property Of the native In
dams, who shear them once q year.
Many efforts have been made to breed
the alpaca in different parts Of Eu-
rope and Australia, but without sue
cess. A cargo Of them was brought to
Baltimore some time In the middle Of
the last century, but the experiment Of
raising them in the United States was
likewise a failure.
1.-THE cloth known as mohair comes
from the Angora goat, a very different
animal from the alpaca. The angora
is found in South Africa, but the lar
| gest focks are found in Asia Minor
Exchange.
