A. Mad Guess.

John Hawney was one Of England's
famous whipping schoolmasters. At
Elton In autumn the small boys used
to buy chestnuts and roast them in a
shovel over the fire. One day boy
named r., who was great favorite Of
Hawtrey's, had lot OF chesfnuts and
as special favor was allowed to make
use Of the pupil room FIRE while the
boys were all studying. Hawtrey was
going in and out Of the room while
we were working, and on one occasion,
coming In rather quietly. he caught
sight OF F. kneeling over the fire ar
ranging his chestnuts. The boys posi-
ton was Irresistible to any lover Of the
art of chastisement. Not seeing his
face and supposing it was one Of the
other boys stealing the chestnuts, John
Hawtrey quietly took his cane from
his desk and, creeping forward on tip
toe, gave the wretched r. most tre-
mendous whack. The boy jumped up
with yell, his hands clapped behind
him. Then the tutor saw who he was
and said, embracing him:
"Oh, my poor boy. am so sorry!
] thought it was another boy stealing
your chestnuts."
We, Of course, were all delighted and
roared with laughter.-London Graphic.

All over the world Indian hotels
have bad name to any one who has
been used to moderate degree OF COM
fort and good feeding. They are for
the most part disgrace. Why people
should have to pay from 10 rupees to
IS rupees day in the cold season and
from rupees to IL rupees day in the
hot season without receiving comfort
and good feeding seems at first difficult
to answer. As rule, the feeding Is
most inferior, badly served up, table
cloths and napkins frequently dirty,
not to speak Of the knives. forks,
spoons and tumblers. Bedrooms are
badly looked after, and unless one has
a very smart bearer 1t Is difficult to re-
cetye proper attention. All this should
not be FOR such prices as people pay.
In many third rate boarding houses in
England one could get presumably as
good as what is got in some OF the
so called first class hotels in Calcutta.

Awed by the Beau.

When Beau Brummel, the celebrate ted
dandy, was, in consequence Of hin
fallen fortunes, residing at Calais, he
had occasion to visit Paris. Through
the kindness Of the consul at the for
mer place he was enabled to accom-
pany kings messenger to the capital
and thus travel free Of expense. When
the messenger returned, the consul was
curious to know how he and his aris-
tocratfc companion had fraternized
upon the road. what kind of trav-
cling companion did you find Mr.
Brummel?' asked he. "Oh, a veEy
pleasant one, indeed, sir; very pleas
ant" replied the messenger. "Ah! And
what did he say?" "say, sir? Moth
ing! He slept the whole way" "Sleue
the whole way! Do you call that be-
ing pleasant? Perhaps he snoredg'
The messenger acknowledged that
Brummel did SO, but Immediately, as
IL fearful of casting an improper re-
Election upon SO great a parsonage, he
added, with great gravity, "Yet caa
assure you, Sir, Mr.. Brummel snored
very much like d gentleman!-Args-

Danton and the Organ Grinders.

Paris has more than once made war
on organ grinders. There, as here, they
have their enemies and also their
champions. The war, however, is an
old one, and politicians had time to at
tend to it even at the height of the
revolution.
No less a man than Danton then took
the part OF the musicians.
ttCitizens," he cried from the tribunal,
II hear that an attempt is being made
to- prevent the organ grinders Of Bar
barry from playing their tunes as usual.
Do you think, then, that the streets Of
Paris are too gay? Have the people Of
Paris too many songs on their lips
One after another our liberties are be-
ing wrested from us. Leave us at
least the liberty Of listening to the Or
gans Of Barbary, of hearing from them
our favorite songs and refrains."
Danton was guillotined for reasons
with which this speech had nothing to
do, but the Grafton containing these
sentiments was the last that he had
the opportunity of delivering as a
member Of the northumberland
ster Gazette.

A eibuious Lord Mayer.

Any one with a love Of queer nauaea
should study the names OF past lou6
mayors Of London. Besides one or two
that are merely uncommon and did
not belong to men Of any distinctions,
such as Sir Richard spaa, mayor In
1852, there are some that deserve NO.
eice also for the sake OF those who bore
them. There was Str John Brugges Go
1920, whose ancestor fought at Agin-
court, when, curiously enough, the
name had the more modern form OF
Bridges. There was Alderman Mica
Jah Perry In 1889, who laid the first
stone OF the Mansion House, and Sir
Benjamin Hamet. who was fned $1,000
In 1707 for refusing to act as mayor
positively cheap way Of getting cut
Of It.
The most appropriately named lord
mayor seems. however, to have beea
the cheerful Sir Robert Viner. who en-
tertained Charles II. and drank tho
kings health SO often as to become ua-
duly merry. The king tactfully sought
to retire, but Viner plucked him by
tbs sleeve and vowed he should 'stay
and take the other bottle!" Charles
H., never at loss, complied, murmur-
ing, HE that is drunk Ia as great rs q
king."-St. James Gazette.

placed the classes above the masses,
leaving them an easy prey to young
er, purer, aand stronger nations.
We the most intelligent and progress
i've nation on earth should learn a les
son from the history of past nations,
for there is no more realistic .truism
than that history repeats ITSELF, and
why should we not do what we can to
support, and elect to public office,
men whom we KNOW are citizens and
patriots, and who place their citizen
ship and their patriotism above their
greed for PERSONA gain.
Mr.. Brayn is going to be elected;
there is no doubt of this; but the
Herald would like to see his election
UNANIMOS; and if our people
would lay aside their prejudices, study
conditions, the personel of the candi-
dates, and look up Bryan's record,
which stands for everything that is
pure in private and honest and ccur-
ageous in public life, and VOTE IN
TELLIGENTLY, there would not be
one vote cast against him in the Nov
ember election.

SOY BEANS.

The Rural World says that one
reason why soy beans have not be-
come more prominent in American
agriculture has been the impossible
ty of securing seeds of a particular
variety In the few localities in the
United States where farmers have
learned how TO utilize them to best
advantage they have proved to be a
crop of high value. They are espec-
tally valuable for mixing with corn
for silage, for the production of hay,
and for use as pasture, especially for
hogs An expert of the Department
of Agriculture has made study of
the soy bean for several years and
has identified no less than twenty.
Two varieties. These have been class
fled and described in a bulletin lust
issued, and the department hopes
that with this information farmers
VIII hereafter be able to obtain from
seedsmen the particular varieties
which they wish to plant.

Fair and Unfair BuriaIs.

The jurisdictional dispute between

union has reached the coffin industry,
and there is considerable doubt in a
dnion mans mind as to what style
of coffin to purchase in order to Sc
cure the properly labeled union ar

citation, organized especially to decide
this matter, Is at n loss to decide
the matter, 'and is selling caskets
bearing the label OF the carpenters
union, which the woodworkers declare
to be non-union.
The carpenters claim the exclusive
right to place their labels on caskets
and the woodworkers declare IL man
is buried in a coffin bearing such a
label he goes to his last resting place
to remain through all eternity in an
"unfair" article. The Chicago Fed.

which no railroad has yet reached.
There IS. however. short railroad on
the plateau itself. But to get to It
by the most used route, one must

Distribute the Aliens.

Some definite and well organized
movement ought manifestly to be
made toward the wider scattering
throughout the country OF the horde
of aliens that is continually trpoping
into our country 1t is not good either
fer themselves or for the public that
they plant themselves, as they have
been doing, in great colonies i'm the
large cities. That practice makes for
continued poverty, ill-health, general
conditions that are not desirable. II
would be surprising to know how
many OF those who flock to these
shores annually are and should still
be tillers Of the soil There is de-
mand for such. They should be in

themselves over our large area of
