Ncthine Funny About Il.

SceEc-A druggists shop in small
Scotch Village which. as usual with
druggists shops similarly situated, is
the general emporium for ali sorts of
merchandise. Cycling tourist enters
and purchases n cigar, after lighting
which he attempts to draw the pro
prictor into conversation, but the lat
ter seems rcticent.
The tourist, after passing some re-
marks on the weather, asked, Don't
you feel trade dull at times in this lit
tie village chemist?'
"Oh, we'll" replied the druggist, "I
Gamma complain. But, excuse me, mais.
ter. dinna alloo smokin' in my
shop"
Indeed" said the tourist. That is
strange. You sell tobacco and cigars
and still cont permit smoking in your
shop 1t Is really rather funny"
"Ou. man." was the reply. there's
naething funny ahoot it, sell arsen-
ic, but ! dinna alloo ye to commit sui

The Yorkshireman.

There IS n characteristic glimpse Of
Yorkshire "downrightness" IN the pub
lished "reminiscences of an English
clergyman:
At my institution to Upham a re-
tired colonial bishop, about TO take an
English bencfice, said: well you and
have worked 10th in north and
south. In what points do you consider
that they differ" "Oh, my lord"
answered. II can soon tell you that.
II n Yorkshireman thinks you a fool
he comes and tells you so to your face.
Down here they go and tell somebody
else" You have exactly hit IT," said
the bishop. "Thc difference could not
be better described"
Yorkshire regard for the pocket the
aforesaid clergyman illustrates in this
anccdote:
a groom being asked how long he
lived in the south replied, Twenty
years" What. Have you, n York
shircman, lived twenty years down

WY The Earth Cannot ExpIod.,

The theory is frequently advanced
that planets and even suns sometimes
explode and that the earth may some
day blow up like a bombshcn. Nc
celestial body the size OF the earth
could possibly explode. II the entire
molten interior OF our globe could be
replaced with nitroglyccrin and deto.
mated the explosion would not lift the
carth's crust. In other words, IL we
assume that the crust OF the earth IS
from fifty to hundred miles in thick.
ness 1t would require something much
more powerful than even nitroglycerin
to burst the shell. 1t Is necessary only
to do little figuring TO see that the
pressure Of the earth's crust at a
depth of from fifty to hundred miles
far exceeds the pressure exerted by
the most powerful high explosive

Owns $50 Kansas Acres

Fred Clarke, captain-manager
of the Pittsburg Pirates, is a Kan
sas farmer, and owns $50 acres of
her best bottom land. But few
f the ''fans" themselves are
aware of this fact. The popular
notion is, that the great base
ball player is a man who plays
ball in the sumner at a big salary
and loafs during the winter. This
may be the case with some, but
it is not true of the captain-man-
ager who won the National
League pennant and the World s
