and the only possible means of getting
a prisoner there was by driving. AS
Kelly himself had the only car in the
place, there was nothing to do but to
hire 1t. For some time the constable
and his prisoner haggled over the
terms.
Kelly stuck out firmly for 80 shil-
lings, to be paid in advance. and at
last the constable had to consent to
the extortion. Accordingly they drove
or and without any misadventures ar
rived at the prison. When they had
alighted Kelly suddenly informed his
companion that he had changed his
mind. as the prison wasn't decent
looking place. and would pay the fine.
He thereupon drew out the 80 shil-
lings he had received. counted out the
20 shillings and paid them over to the
inspector. Then. jumping ON his car.
he drove away, leaving the constable
to walk back.

CATCHING Monkevs.

Ringtailed monkeys, which rank
among the most valuable. commercial
~ speaking. Of the small animals, are
caught In an interesting way. A CO.
coanut is split in two and banana
with piece Of wood running through
1t placed lengthwise through the nut,
the two halves Of which are drawn
together by wires. Then hole is cut
just large enough for the monkeys
paw to enter. The monkey spies the
tempting nut from his tree. He hops
down. looks it over, sees the hole and
smells the banana inside. He is fond
OF bananas. Putting his paw in. he
grasps 1t. but the wood prevents it
from coming out. Then the catchers
appear. and the monkey runs for a
tree. But he cannot climb because of
the cocoanut on his paw, and he will
not let go Of that so he is captured,
paving wildly at the tree trunk.

A Costly Client.

Miss Bayley told me that Mr..
Phipps the oculist. told a gentleman,
who told her, the following anecdote
Of the late Duchess of Devonshire:
Mr., Phipps was sent for to Chats
worth to operate upon the duchess
eye. He stayed there some time and
at parting received from the duke a
fee of $1,000. Just before he stepped
into his carriage a message from the
duchess brought him to her chamber.
She hoped the duke had done what
was handsome by Mr.. Phipps. The
gentleman protested:
Yes, and more than handsome"
1T Is an awful thing" continued her
grace. ITO ask, but really am at this
moment in immediate want of such a
sum, and II you could. Mr.. Phipps."
What could the oculist do? He pro-
duced his f1,000. took his leave and
never heard of his money from that
day to this.-From "RecoIlections of a

WhitefieId on Love and MARRIAGE.

George Whitefield, the most persua-
sive preacher England has produced.
who died on Sept. 80, 1910. could ap-
peal SO powerfully to the emotions
that he once enticed all the money
from the pocket Of the prudent Frank
lin. Yet he strangely anticipated some
modern unromantic views on the SUBJ
ject of marriage. In 174O he applied to
the parents of young lady for the
hand of their daughter. adding, "If l
know anything Of my own heart l am
free from that foolish passion which
the world calls love-"
When this prosaic proposal was de-
clined the undaunted Whitetield mar
ried an elderly Welsh widow neither
rich nor beautiful" This merry wild
ow" did not make a congenial help
mate, and Whitefield remarked, with
refreshing candor, that "her death set
