The Oldest Joke,

1t will be difficult TO discover an old
er practical joke than that of the cop
persmith and the maker OF brazen i'm
ages for the temple OF Osiris. which is
embodied ia Egyptian inscriptions dat
ing from the reign OF Menes, founder
of Memphis, who ruled over 1000
years ago. According TO ancient rec
ords, there dwelt between these two
craftsmen quiet man whose desire
was for peace and who was sadly dis
turbed by the noisy occupations car
ried on by his busy neighbors. He
therefore asked each OF them TO say
for what sum they would change their
dwellings. This they did. Each calcu-
lated the amount required. and he. be-
ing satisfied, paid it over TO them.
Now" he asked of the coppersmith.
where is your new dwelingg 81
have taken that of the maker of i'm
ages" was the reply. And you"
queried the quiet man of the latter
whittier goest thou?' ITO the house
OF the coppersmith.'
This Is one of many tales told in all
ages which are woven into myth and
legend and differ only in local. color. "

DAILY SHORT STORIES
Buyn,o In His Note.


Colonel BIZ was pioneer legislator,
merchant and banker of the vest pock-
ct variety.
1t was seldom that Colonel Bill got
caught by q debtor, so unerring was
his Judgment of men, but his transac-
ton with old man Blankerton was an
exception to the rule. Blankerton got
into Colonel Bilrs ledger to the amount
of SEQ and finally balanced the account
with note
When the paper was long time
overdue and there was no prospect Of
settlement. TO the eminent disgust OF
the colonel. he declared. with strong
Anglo-Saxon emphasis, that he would
sell Blankerton's note for 30 cents ON
the dollar. The statement was not
long reaching the ears of the maker
of the note. He met the colonel In he
village street one day and accosted
him:
''Bill, heard you'd offered to sell my
note for so cents on the dollar"
Yes; l WILL"
Twill you sell it to me ut that rateT'
"Yes. sir; I'll sell 1t to you at that
rate"
"All right, Bill; make out new
note"
Colonel Bits symptoms Of apoplexy
became noticeable from that moment.

bjornson's Advice.


There is a story told Of Bjornstierne
Bjornson that, arriving at late hour
at the town of Bergen. which was en-
fete TO receive him. he vouchsafed to
the expectant people no finer words
Of wisdom than general recommen-
dalton to go TO bed.
In vain they appealed to him for
"song or sentiment" The great Bis
marck. said be. gave the same advice
under conditions all similar. and what
was good enough for Berlin must suf-
fee for Bergen
Three years later, on visiting the
town for the second time. the master
novelist found a deserted city. Not n
light burned I'm the dismal railway
station. no banners waved. no address
c. were read by portly burgomasters.
In gain BjoJpsop ntsed fer a cab.
e 'Hhey have all gone 90 bed" was

SPARING HER NERVES.
An Extremely and Careful Consider
ate Visitor Tells What Happened
to Her Timid Friend.

The mistakes which were plentifully
sprinkled along Mrs. Comer's career
were never regretted by any one more
than by Mrs. Conner herself. II used
the very best judgment 1 had" she
said, referring to one unfortunate oc-
currence, "but, as usual, everything
went wrong.
''You see, I went to Greenville in the
morning with Mrs. Hobart, intending
to go on to Nashua, but changed my
mind when the weather turned cool
and spent the day with Anna Woods,
going home at dusk. I'd forgotten my
little bag with my key in 1t, so went
right over to Mrs. HObart's.
"she'd gone down the road to Mrs.
Coles, but l found her key behind the
left hand blind and went right IN.
"The house was dark, but 1 said to
myself, 4 won't light lamp for fear
Of soaring her, a timid woman, living
all alone, as she does So 1 sat in the
dark till I heard her coming up the
walk.
when she found the door was un-
locked she gave a kind Of a gasp, so l
stepped forward and then, long as
had cold so my voice didn't sound
natural and I was afraid 'twouid
scare her, she being so timid, l put
out my hand and laid it on her arm.
"And, If you'll believe me-" finished
Mrs. Conner plaintively, 'she fell right
over in a faint and cut her forehead
on the edge of the rocking chair, and
though I'd never bring her to!
"There's no use trying to be careful
with a woman like her."-YCuth's Com
