Laid In q Stock.

When the late Pierre L0rillard was n boy, his mother, being annoyed by moths that destroyed the woolen cloth Ing and other material of the house. hod. agreed to pay him cent apiece for every moth he would kill in the house and bring to her. The same bargain was made with his brothers. Jake. George and Louis. In course of time Mrs. Lorillard noticed that. while the other children collected from her at Intervals from 10 to p cents. Pierre drew on her frequently for d Sl at a time. indorsing his drafts with 1m dead moths. Investigation revealed the bent of the future tinancier a- well as his early adaptability to meth ods governing the requirement oi wealth. Having procured from fur rier some pieces of fur thrown away because tlley were infested with moths, Pierre secreted them In an old chest in an unused closet. There the quickly accommodating moths were banked to be drawn upon whenever the inventor and perfecter of the en- terprisr required pocket money.

The Old Enolish Prize Rina.

In the latter days of the English prize ring lnnumerable expedients had to be devised to bring off fight. A f,.'orite plan was to pitch the ring on the borders of two counties. so that the question of magisterial jurisdiction nigh, be rendered difficult. Another plan was to charter steamboat and proceed down the Thames to some lonely police forsaken spot in the
 marshes of Essex. For the memorable contest between Savers and Heenan ln ;SliO a special train was run from Lon don bridge to a secret destination. But the passengers, who comprised members of parliament. peers. pick pockets, pugilists, clergy and. it !s said. few bishops. cheerfully took tickets simply marked excursion.
 They presently found themselves near Farnborough. in Surrey, where the fight occurred.-London Chronicle.

An Aquatic Tragedy.

When visitors came, Bobby was often turned out of his room and into the garret for night or two. He did not object to this, but he felt that it endangered certain cherished posses sions. When his uncle. the clergy man, arrived unexpectedly one night Bobby was transferred to his garret quarters in haste and with small cere- mony, and neglected to take any pre- cautions to guard his treasures.
 "I have to thank the thoughtful per son who placed glass of water on the table near the bed last night" said the clergyman the next morning. Il awoke in the night and found it re- freshing-most refreshing"
 "Oh" said Bobby, in tone of sor- row and reproach. You've drinked up my nice new 'quarium, and all'-
 But here Bobby's revelation was sup. pressed by his mother.-Youth's Com. panion.

OriuinaI of EaistaH.

Sir John Fastolf was tbe original of Shakespeare's Falstaff and in his day was a continual butt for the jests of the town and borough of Southwark. Though he had fought at Agincourt. when Jack Cade invaded the borough, he showed great cowardice. When Cade was yet some way off Fastolf had armed and fortified his house and garrisoned 1t with veterans of the French wars. On the arrival of Cade. however, he withdrew his garrison and fled to the Tower, leaving his neigh. bors to the mercy of the rebels. Fas- tolf's matrimonial adventures seem also to have been another source of unpop- ularity, for. having married widow named Scrope, he seized her property and kept his stepson out of his inheri- tance during his own ufetime.-Lon- don News.

 "Tell me one truth and you shall have your baby again."
 The mother replied, You will not give him back to me-"
 ''Then." said the crocodile. "by our agreement shall keep him, for If you have told the truth I am not going. to give him back, and if 1t is lie have also won."
 But the mother said. If told you the truth you are bound by your prom ise. and if 1t is not the truth 1t will not be lie until you have given me my child"

At recent meeting of the board of
directors of the Y NJ. c. A. it was
decided to put on a campaign to raise
$500 for the Y NJ. C. A, to be used
for the following purposes:
$3.50 balance on swimming pool;
s225 to connect with railroad COM
pany water supply, thus saving $500
per annum for water; $500 to erect
porch over pool; $3.50 current support
subscription for 191O-1911 usual
amount secured); $3.50 for general re
pairs. A total of $3475
Mr.. L. A. Coulter, the state secre-
tary, was invited by the board to as
sist in the campaign, and the plan
will be similar to that used so sue
cessfully in many different cities of
the nation. Within the last year in
this state a six-day campaign at Waco
yielded $4,000; a seven-day campaign
at Beaumont netted $4,000, and
four-day campaign at Houston yielded
$50 900, while at Sherman in six
days campaign $4,000 was raised to
complete an unfinished structure.
- During the last five years in the
nation, no less than $1OOOO,OOO have
been secured by similar campaigns in
all sections of the country for new
buildings, Indebtedness and other pur-
poses.
The plan, in brief. is to organize
force of for;y-eight men, Z of eight
teams, each team to have leader or
captain, each of whom will have five
other men working with him.

PALESTINE PLAYWRIGHT
"The Outsider" Written BY Hiram NJ.
Muse, Will Be Presented at the
New Temple Next Week.

The Outsider" a four-act drama
written by local author, Mr.. Hiram
Marion Muse, will be given a local
production at the New Temple The
atre on Thursday, December Is, this
being the first time the play has been
produced on any stage. The produc-
ton will be staged and personally di-
rected by Palestine's popular young
actor, Mr.. Henry Roquemore, >and
played by a carefully selected cast of
local people. The show will be given
as a special benefit performance for
the Mary V. Reid Hive, Lady of the
Maccabees of the World AS to the
show proper, much can be said as 20
The merit of the dainty story of the
play as brought out by the author
This will be the first production ever
given in Palestine written, staged and
played by local people, which, of
course, will have a tendency to be
magnet for drawing a large crowd.
The characters in The Outsider"
are all drawn true to life; in fact,
they are the kind of people we meet
everyday life. The action of the
play is very modern and interesting,
and each player is given the same
opportunity which fact is very crafty
ing to local players.
