The BARRIERS small son was in the
habit of playing around his fathers
shop, and he was always keenly in
terested in the patrons. Many a
stray penny found its way into the
little chubby hand, and sticks of
gum were dropped in quite as
though by accident. Judge Blank
drifted into the shop the other aft
ernoon for hair cut. The lad rec
ognized the fact that the judge was
new patron and SO was more than
ordinarily interested in him. He
hung at the foot of the chair and
looked musingly at the judges bald
head. Then he walked slowly to the
back of the chair and surveyed the
scanty fringe Of hair from that
point Of vantage. He could contain
himself no longer and burst out in
credulously, Father, do you get a
quarter for cutting that ?"--Lippin-
colts Magazine.

A SOCIAL. TANGLE.
The Results of an Attempt to Solve
the Complex Problem.


Wanted, three competent men
to fill vacancies on the editorial
staff of the Daily Doleful."
The sad circumstances which
called forth the above advertise
ment are as follows:
In yesterdays editorial column
appeared a notice that man named
Shore had married his stepdaughter
by his (Shore's) deceased wife's for
mer marriage.
The society editor very thought
lessly asked:
"What relation would the chill
dren by this marriage and their chill
dren hold to the parents?"
The whole staff attempted to
solve the problem, with terrible re-
suits.
"In the first place." said the So
ciety editor, "the children would be
their fathers and mothers second
cousins, and their grandfather would
be their granduncle by their fathers
side, while their grandmother would
be their grandaunt and also step
mother as well as their fathers
wife; hence they'd be their own
children. Gracious! Twice nothing
is nothing and two to carry" And
then he tried to stab himself with a
paper knife.
The night editor said:
Gas he married his wife's daugh-
ter, the mother is sister to her own
children, and her husband must be
their brother-in-law, and if he's
their brother-in-law, being also a
cousin to his wife, her children are
his second cousins and must be
cousin to her husband, SO he's his
own cousin.
ellis own cousin, he must have
also Aeen his cousins and his uncles
and his aunts, and so did his cousins
and his uncles and his aunts, and so
did his cousins and his"-
! And here it became necessary to
fasten the night editor in his chair,
where he sits wildly repeating, "And
so did his uncles and his cousins and
his aunts," hopeless idiot.
Then the editor in chief attacked
it, and in two minutes he made the
children their own mothers-in-law,
and one of them, he declared, was
her own grandmother, after which
he was delivered up to the police for
safe keeping.
The problem was taken up by the
comps" and in half an hour every
man was sitting with staring eyes,
figuring with his finger on the back
of his hand and vowing Shore had
married his great-grandmother with
out a license, while an GRAND boy
jumped out of the window, under
the impression that he was his own
ancestor.-London Tit-Bits.

BACK TO THE FARM.

Last fall the Manufacturers Record
said that the industrial depression
would give the South the greatest OPP
portunity in its history to attract farm
settlers if the occasion should be prop
erly utilized. Many men in times of
depression find it necessary to seek new
occupations, and IN doing SO they nat
urally turn toward those sections of the
country where the greatest opportuni-
ties exist. AS the South and South
west have these in abundance to offer,
many new settlers are being attracted
to these sections of the country. More.
over, the prosperity of the agricultural
interests of the country and the depres-
ion in manufactures naturally tends to
draw population back to the farm.

Dons In Harness.

Only occasionally in the United
States does one see dogs in harness,
but it is common sight all through
Canada. There not only boys and
girls, but grown men, do not disdain
to be pulled by Fido or Bruno, and
it is quite customary when touring
through the country to see dogs
harness hanging on the stable wall
beside that of the horse The little
carts used for dogs are so light that
they are not burdensome, and OF
course only a big, heavy dog, like
Newfoundland or some of the mon
grel types, is ever put to such work.

The DOGS of constantinop pie.

There are at least 235, 900 dogs In
Constantinople. which has u population
of 1.15OOoo. They are the vilest of
towards and are the scavengers of the
city. 1t is said that scores of people
are bitten daily by the dogs of Con-
stantinople, but that a case OF hydro
phobia was never known there. Three
centuries ago Nassuf Pasha, grand
vizier to Achmet Ill, transported all
the dogs to Asia and would have had
them destroyed there. but the sultan,
on consulting the multi. was told that
every dog had soul and consequently
forbade such wholesale destruction.
After the slaughter of the janizaries
Mahmoud intended to get rid of them,
for he caused an immense number Of
sausages @ to be made and. having
poisoned them, gave the dogs a feast.
Many thousands were thus killed in
one day. but the people murmured 50
much that he was afraid to begin a
second days work. He therefore order
ed them to be expelled to Asia, but the
order was very indifferently executed.
and In a short time the dogs were as
numerous as during the time Of the
janiZaries.

To Make Waxed PAPER.

This is used for keeping substances
which contain either a volatile aromatic
ingredient or grease. which would pen
citrate through ordinary paper. On a
fat sheet of copper over a gentle fire
place a sheet of paper as base and
then lay a second sheet on the top Of
the first Coat this second sheet with
yellow or white wax and distribute the
latter uniformly over the entire sheet
by means. of a sponge. exerting a lit
tie pressure. till the paper is every
where transparent and consequently
permeated by the wax. If the fire is
too feeble. the process will be retard-
ed. Too powerful a flame is still more
harmful. as the paper is liable to be-
come brown or black. Stearin may be
used instead of wax.-Der Industriose
