He Mas Relieved.

The other day a person dropped
down in an apoplectic fit Immediately
in front Of a police station and was
carried inside. A moment after wo-
man forced her way in through the
crowd gathered around the door, ex-
claiming:
"My husband! My poor husband!
Clear the way and let in the air!"
She then busted herself by taking
off the mans cravat and performing
other little Offices until surgeon ar
rived. when the patient gradually re-
covered his senses. On this the SER
geant In charge observed that it was
a happy relief for his distressed wife
as we'll as for himself.
"My wifew exclaimed the man.
"Why, I am q bachelor"
On seeking for the woman 1t was
found that she had disappeared and
with her the watch and purse Of the
patient, which she had adroitly abb
stracted under the very eyes OF the
police.-London Tit-Bits.

A Touch of Nature.

He was the worst boy in school; she
was the teacher. She was angered by
his stubbornncss; he was defiant. She
took him to the hall for punishment.
Angrily she administered the penalty,
and-then somehow great wave OF
pity for the boy swept over her. She
looked at the worn coat Of the little
fellow. She thought Of the frail body
deprived of nourishing food. She
thought Of the hard and loveless home
and Of the starved soul Of the poor
kid.
Tears sprang to the teachers eyes
as the boy waited for further punish
mcnt. Then he saw the tears. His
own eyes grew moist and overhoWed.
Thinking Of how the poor boy had no
chance, in an impulse Of love she put
her arms around the boy, and they
cried together.
That IS religion.
She and the boy both found it.-Mor-
rill (kan.) News.
