A True Story.

Some years ago in a certain town
in the north a gentleman possessed
Of more money than education, was

Sunday afternoon.

used to public speyking, but I re-
member when I was lad I was very
fond Of hearing story. Shall tel
ye a story?"
"Once upon a time many years age
there was a lad, a very good lad, who
went regularly to Sunday school ano

ternoon as he was gavin to school
two bad boys met him and persuaded
him to gan bird nesting wiv 'em. So
they went alang by the riverside, and
by and by they came to a tree, and

bad lads sent the good lad to climb

A Great Orator.

The appeal that fine flow Of ora
tory will make to men and womer
was amusingly exemplified one night
at a meeting in West Philadelphia
says a Philadelphia paper. A noted
speaker was appealing to a gather
ing to give funds toward the work
of cleaning the slums, making life
healthy and happy for the poor and
other utopian schemes Of men and
women whose hearts throb with long
ing to help their kind.
For half an hour he drew pictures
Of the conditions; then with express
sive gestures and his voice throbbine
with enthusiasm he poured out flow
of rhetoric.
"Our duty, our flag, our country,
dotted the speech with italics. The
audience shouted and cheered, and
the women wept, while storm OF
applause swept the room when the
speech was over.
That's going some, eh?" said one
man to another in the cloakroom
later.
Fine sentiments, real feeling
great, great!"
"I'm so deaf" spoke up another,
with disappointment in his voice,
that I couldn't hear. What did he
say?"
"Say-say!" stammered the others,
looking into each others faces.
"why-he-he-er- II
know" And to this day they don't
know. 1t was only the "holler' that
got them, not the words.
This is, however, what makes the
orator.

Campion had just discovered that he

"Pve spoken to you several times

Mrs. Campion in a vexed tone. If

it's too late for you to get that check
cashed. You ought to make sure that

Led BY the Nose.-An analytical
chemist was retained as a skilled wit
ness some years ago, where there
were questions of analytical chemis-
try. There was one case where a
farmer had bought some artificial
manure, and he was being sued for
the price of it. He resisted payment
on the ground that the material had
none of the qualities of manure at
all. The expert chemist was one OF
the witnesses, and had stated that,
although the substance had the SMELL
it had none of the chemical qualities
of manure. Under cross examination
he was asked, If that was so, how did
he account for hundreds Of the best
farmers having taken the manure fol
many years. ''They must have been
