WALKED THOUSANDS OF MILES.
Distance Travelled by Men Long In
British Mail Service.

There must be few, even among
"men Of letters" who, like Joseph
Hunt, Lincolnshire (Eng.) postman.
can claim to have tramped distance
Of. roughly, 100000 miles. not much
less than the equivalent of ten jour
neys around the earth. Not long ago
George Thompson retired from SER
vice as postman In the Langrick dis
trict Of Yorkshire. after covering on
foot 125,00O miles in 26 years of letter
carrying. a service IA years shorter
than that Of his Lincolnshire rival In
"a years Orme NJ. Brown walked
111,0OO miles as postman between
Cupar and Kilmany and Logie-a dis
tance, as was stated at the appropri-
ate presentation to him of an easy
chair. nearly equal to half that which

John Simmonds of Henley y-on- Thames
retired with a record Of 1s1, 900 miles
of fair heel and toe" the result Of
40 years tramping; while most amaz-

in the Chipping Norton district, was
credited with an aggregate Journey
of 100000 niles between the years

Longest Love Letter.

"The limit in love letters in all my

an attache of the local postofiice not

that had ten two-cent stamps on it.
The man must have weighed it. too,
for the postage was just right-no
more than needed and no less. How
did know it was love letter? Well,
couldn't be absolutely cocksure
about it, but If you had seen it, and
noticed the stationery, the handwrit,

The Thrifty Chinese,

the coolies, engaged in passing coal.
was accidentally caught in the ma
chnery, and had his leg so badly
crushed that 1t was decided necessary
to amputate 1t. This was explained
to the fellow, and after much persua-
sion he was induced to submit to the
sleeping medicine and have the leg
taken off. He recovered in remark
ably quick time and when able to
leave the ship where he had been con-
fined was given handful Of money
the officers had collected for him,
amounting to about $50 gold. In less
than a days time the ship was be-
sieged by an army of Chinese. all

SURELY AN "oRIGINAL" NAME.
Curious Error the Result Of Mistaken
Pronunciation.

An English country clergyman vouches
for the truth of this story. Having ar
rived at that point in the baptismal
service where the infants name is
conferred, he said: Name this child"
Original Story" said the sponsor
nurse. What do you say?" he asked
in surprise. "Original Story" she re-
peated in clear, deliberate tones. ITS
very odd name, isn't it? Are you
sure you want him called by the name
Of Original Story?" Original Story
that's right" "Is 1t family name?"
the minister persisted. Named after
his uncle, sir" explained the nurse.
And SO as Original Story the little fel-
low was christened. Some weeks after
this event the minister made the ac-
quaintance Of the said uncle-a farm
laborer in another village-whose
name was Reginald Story.

A Smile Is the Prerosative Of Man.

Nothing on earth can smile but
man! Gems may fash reflected light
but what is a diamond flash compared
to an eyeflash and a mirth-hash?
Flowers cannot smile; this is a charm
that even they cannot claim. 1t is
the prerogative of man; it is the color
which love wears, and cheerfulness
and joy-these three. 1t is light in
the windows of the face, by which
the heart signifies it is at home and
waiting. A face that cannot smile is
like bud that cannot blossom and
dries up on the stalk. Laughter is
day and sobriety is night, and a
smile is the twilight that hovers gently
between both-more bewitching than
eithcr.-IIenry Ward Beecher

work while you sleep. It soothes sore and inilam-

California Sweet Peas.

Sweet peas have sc divisions and
some 300 subdivisions. In California,
where almost all the flower seeds are
grown. one farm of 500 acres is given
up to the production of sweet peas
alone. The total production yearly is
about 350,000 pounds. and even when
this amount is augmented by the yield
from smaller farms 1t is almost i'm
possible to meet The demand. Sweet
pea are the most popular flowers in
America for homo Gardens, except the
nasturtiums, and even these can not
always compete with the sweet peas.
