FRENCH FISH STORY.
Three Days Carnival of Marpignon's
 Intrepid Anglers.

Though their lakes and ponds are few and their rivers comparatively destitute of fish. the French people are extremely fond of angling. Indeed, nervous and eXcitable as the average Frenchman may be. he is content to sit by 2 stream With a pole and wait all day for {, bite.
 In cer+ain country town not far from Paris there existed a fishing club named the Intrepid Fishers of Marpi gnon. \ pretty stream goes through Marpignon. hut for many years not one fish had been seen in this stream from which circ:..:ast:}nce it followed .hc Intrepid F@'ars had little to do says .:ar:ne1.'s N-e4.;!r
 The excitement may be ina agined therefore. when the word ran through Marpignon that a large barbel-a tough and gamy f*h-had been seen in the stream. The Intrepid Fishers turned out and having ascertained that there was indeed barbcl in the stream. immediately stopped the wa ter some little distance above and be IO" ulil WILL SO IuUl uc could not get away
 Then they ranged themselves joy. fully along the stream with hook and line, and all went to fishing for the one fish,
 By and by one Intrepid Fisher caught him and immediately threw him back into tie water. In the course of time another caught him and did the same.
 For three days one veracious ac. count has 1t the Intrepid Fishers kept at work catching this one barbel, and at the end of that time the fish died of exhaustion and loss of blood. Then the Intrepid Fishers counted up the notches that they had made on their fish poles. and the man who had caught the barbel the most times was declared the champion fisherman of Marpignon and received great honors

OUR NATURAL SAvAGERY.
1t Will at Times Break Through the
 Veneer of Civilization.

1t Win at Times Break Through the
 Veneer of Civilization.
 It's mighty short step from modern civilization to the natural impulses of ancient savagery. If you don't believe 1t just watch some time, and you'll see a small boy-or grown man-dis- cover a rabbit.
 The first thought that comes into his mind is to kill the rabbit Quickly he searches his mind to see where a weapon can be found.
 The second thought is to secure 8 rock to throw at it. just as some cave man might.
 A man finds a snake coiled in the road. It may be a harmless snake. but it's a snake, and therefore his primitive instinct calls upon him to kill 1t.
 A weapon! He seeks about for a club. just as his ancient, skin clothed ancestors would have done, and, hay ing secured the club. he dispatches the snake. his soul singing with tri umph.
 Modern civilization probably would have urged the man to cut a forked stick and catch the snake by the neck with 1t, then to secure 10 cents worth of chloroform and kill 1t swiftly and painlessly But he goes after the club just as naturally as if he had never seen a steam heated hat or ridden on . trolley car or seen an automobile
 Children roam in the woods and eat every variety of berry they can find. 1t matters not if they be poisonous. They taste them all from the looks. and the amount eaten depends on the taste. This Is probably what the cave children did, and the modern infants show the same intelligent caution re. garding what they put in their mouths It's that way all through. We may have acquired a more or less thick veneer of modern civilization. but let emergencies arise and we're as primi- tive as the most primitive of our an cestorS.- Galveston News.

Curious Bibles.

Among the curious Bibles Is the Prosecuting Printers Bible, contain. ing the phrase Printers have perse' cuted me without cause" Psalm cXix. l6D. The substitution of the word ''printers" for "princes" is responsible for the giving of this name to this Bible. All we know of this edition is stated by Stevens in his catalogue of the Caxt0n exhibition of Bibles. This authority tells us that these words were put into Bible printed before l7O2.
 There Is also the Ears to Ear" Bible. in which occurs the expression "Whoso hath ears to ear, let him hear" (Mat thew xii. 43). This adaptation to cock ney usage is found in an octavio Bible published by the Oxford Press in 1910

FULL OPINION IN
 MANDAMUS CASE
sound discretion of the court.

It is difficult to lay down general all cases to determine whether the provisions of a statute are mandatory or directory. In regard to the gen eral rule MT. Justice Sharswood of the Supreme court of Pennsylvania said: ''When the words are affirmative, and relate to the manner in which power of jurisdiction vested in a public of ficer or body is to be exercised and not in the limits of the power or jur isdiction itself, they may and often have been construed to be directory. Bladen Philadelphia, 66 Pr 466; Appeal of Spencer, IS. 301; 61 Att. 1910; Attorney General Baker, g Rich. Ed. IS. O. 521; Lewis Suther- land Statutory Construction, Vol 2. p. 1117.
 In determining whether the words shall have a mandatory or directory effect ascribed to them, the purpose of the act, the ends to be accomplish ed. the consequences that may result from one meaning or the other and the context are to be considered. In the application of these rules to the statute under consideration, we have reached the conclusion that the lam guage, "the court shall forthwith make an order for process to be is- sued thereon is not mandatory upon the circuit court, but is directory merely. We are strengthened in this view when we consider that sub sequent provisions relating to the same subject are manifestly directory
 In construing this statute, the court har already held that the court may dndorse on the indictment when it is returned into court, the amount of bail required and withhold the order 6rom the records of the court for a time. Humphries ct al State, 8 Ark. 71S. If the statute is impera- tive in it's terms. the court could not do that: for it must literally and ex- picitly obey the mandate of the stat ute and has no discretion at all in the matter. It can not be consistently said that its terms are mandatory in part and directory in part. It seems to us that the provisions of the chap ter of our criminal code on proceeds on indictments. when considered to- gether. prescribe the duties of the circuit count in relation thereto. and direct the manner of the exercise thereof: but do not create a limitation on the power of the circuit court in discharging the duties required of it by the statutes. In other words. as above stated. we hold that the part of the statute directing that the court shall forthwith make an order for pro. cess to be issued thereon'' ie direc. tory merely and not mandatory.
 It follows that the petition for s writ of mandamus will be denied.

Joy; God is good and what he does is
well done; resign yourself TO every.
thing, even TO happiness; ask for the
spirit of sacrifice, of detachment, Of re,
nunciation, and above all, for the spirit
of Joy and gratitude, that genuine and
religious optimism which sees In God
a Father, and asks no pardon for his
benefits. We must dare to be happy
and dare to confess 1t. regarding our.
selves always as the repositories, not

STONE MOVED BY THE SUN
Immense Mass Of Granite In Ohio
Cemetery Undergoes Curious
Revolutions.

An interesting object is to be seen
In a cemetery of Ohio-a large gran
lite stone weighing two tons, in the
shape Of a ball, which is gradually
turning on its axis. During the last
five years, so It is said, this ball has
turned a fraction over 10 inches.
When the ball was placed in position
an unpublished spot six inches in diam.
eter was purposely left In the socket
OF the pedestal wherein It rested. A
little later II was noted with astonish-
ment that this spot was turning up
ward on the south side of the monu-
ment. This curious revolution of the
polished ball. to life which would re-
quire a large derrick, is supposed to
be due to the suns action. in the fol-
lowing manner The solar rays heat
Ing n side the ball to expand
to a certain degree whereas the north
side, which rests mostly in the shade,
does not expand to the same extent,
thus causing the ball gradually to
shift Its position by turning.
