Outline Red Tape.


Many amusing stories are told OF
ways in which postoffice officials, In
cHned to keep too vigorously to the
letter Of their regulations, have been
thwarted. On one occasion a man
asked for 240 penny stamps and ten
dered payment in copper. The official
declined to receive 1t, whereupon the
man began buying and paying for one
stamp at q time. Before he had got a
dozen in that way the postoftice Official
had surrendered. 1t must have been
the same man or a near relative who
one Sunday went into a postoftice that
was open for telegraph business only.
He handed In sixpenny telegram and
asked to be supplied with two stamps
besides. No, he could not have stamps;
telegraph business only was transact
ed. Innocently he asked II he might
have his telegram back for a moment
TO add something. he added four
words to 1t and rendered the additional
twopence. The form was returned to
him with the stamps to aftix. Cross
ing out the four additional words, he
affixed the sixpenny stamp. pushed the
telegram under the counter rail and
walked out with his two stamps.-Lon-
don Taller.

ssuentsen Year Loeusts.

The seventeen year locusts are some
times called Pharaoh's locusts because
they make a sound that resembles the
repeating over and over Of that historic
name. The notes or songs are not what
might be termed vocal, as they are pro-
duced by the rapid vibrations OF two
very thin films that cover a small cav
ity at the base Of the abdomen. In
some localities the sound produced Is
somewhat different from that heard In
other sections. Along streams, espe-
clally along the Ohio river. the notes
are more bass, while on the highlands
and especially in the mountain regions
the sounds produced are more shrin.-

Life at the Pole.

Life at the pole is perpetual battle
with nature, IN which man is often
worsted. "He was frozen to death Is
the end of many biographies. While
man is in health they speak OF him as
stronger than DEATH" as If death were
a watchful enemy always waiting for
his chance. But life is on large scale
up there. Instead Of the petty alterna-
tons of night and day they have the
great seasonal succession, and, wheth-
err they are waiting for the long light
Of summer or the long dark OF winter
they enjoy a keen delight In the pros
pect Of a change such as we can never
know in the tanner arrangements or
our climate. The long dark does not
keep them wholly inactive. We read OF
expeditions after bear and hunting on
the ice by torchlight. but In the main
their winter is given up to story tell
inc, conversation aud contemplation.

used to be pestered to death by a
bore. My secretary was a good natur-
ed, obliging chap, and he could never
find 1t in his heart to turn the bore
away. Just as sure as l was In the
bore was certain to be admitted.
zone day, after an hours martyr
dom at the mans hands, l determined
to end that persecution. So l called
my secretary and said to him mys-
teriously:
"Parton, do you know what makes
Smith come here so regularity
"'No, SIR said Parton, 4 can't say !

"Well, Parton said |, I don't mind
telling you in confidence that he's after

From that day." concluded the NJ.
