Saw Point of Resemblance.

Rev. Denis 0'Donaghue, whom
every one In Indianapolis knows and
loves. and who Is now bishop Of the
diocese Of Louisville, Is as fond of
telling a joke on himself as he Ia of
springing one on some one else.
The bishop is nearly bald and when
he is travelling and desires to remove
his headgear he usually pulls on silk
skull cap. The bishops friends tell of
a little train incident that happened
to him while travelling between Indian
apolis and Chicago.
Just behind the bishop sat a travel.
ing man who appeared to be deeply
interested In his reverence. However,
he did not speak to the bishop until
the train began to slow up at a small
station. The traveller was to alight at
this station. Gathering his grips he
started for the door. Then he turned
back and stopped at Bishop O,Donag.
hue's seat.
Pardon me-" he said, with an anx-
ious countenance, but aren't you Bill
Nye?"
Bishop O'Donaghue, who was al
ways an admirer Of the famous humor-
list, thought the joke was too good to
keep and promptly told 1t ON himself.

WELCOME THE "GRAD"
SWEET COLLEGiANS PROMISE Do
MEsTIc REVOLUTION.
New Method of Dlsh-Washlng May Be
Only the Beginning Of Better Thlnas
Vast Field for Her lnuenu-
lty Is Before Her.

There's something new under the
sun. after ALL" remarked the troubled
tourist Here's a woman college grad
uate who says the college woman can
devise new methods OF washing the
dishes.
If that's the case, then she's got
the helpful husband beaten a mile,
for up to the time of this new discov-
cry he has had the record for new
methods of dish-washing by the sim
pie sxpedient of turning the hose on
them. 1t was quick and fairly eff
cacious way of disposing Of whole
tubful of dishes at one fell swoop
and babe fair to revolutlonize house
keeping methods. 1t was invented,
think, by a man whose wife left him
to tend the fiat while she took a two
weeks vacation. Now, however, If the
college woman Is out inyenting new
DISTINGUISHING methods. mere man will
have to sidestep. His occupations
gone. l don't know what these new
dish-washing methods may be. but
my advice to bachelors Is to put In
their applications at once to all senior
classes In women's colleges and try
to get wife and new dish-washing
method at one and the same time.
AS a dish juggler the sweet girl
graduate ought to lead the world.
st seems to me that the college
woman of today is going In the do
nestle field. It looks like a soft
thing for her husband. He won't have
to settle a single dispute. All he'll
settle will be the bills. The high cost
of living needn't worry him in the
least. Let his college wife settle that.
All he'll have to do is to worry If he
is laid up and cart attend to his
job. She'll go down to the Office and
settle the business for him. She'll
probably settle the blonde stenog-
rapher first, and attend to the details
later.
l see that up in York state a mail
carrier was unable to deliver his let
tiers and his wife went out and cover
ed his district for him. There you
have it. That's just what the new
dlsn-WaSn1ng college graduate wire Is
going to do-because she can settle
everything.
IF she has any doubt along about
election time that he isn't going to
vote the right way, she can promptly
lock him up and go out and vote for
him. II she thinks he's not up to his
usual form at cards she can keep him
at home and go take his place at the
club Saturday night.
"If there's to be any sitting up with
sick friend she can do 1t for him,
and spare him the long visit. l paint
ed this happy future to cynical bach
elor friend of mine and the only com.
ment I could get him to make was
Wake up, you're In Boston. "-Hous-

The Chjld's TOYS.

Cloaked under pretense or max
ing the children happy, our sins have
been many. In the first place, we
have been giving them too many toys
and have made the recipients blase
and unappreciative. One at time Is
enough In our secret souls most OF
us have been conscious Of that mis-
take. In the second place, In our
desire to produce something new and
wonderful at frequent intervals, some.
thing that would do us credit in the
eyes of our young admirers, we have
been getting the wrong kinds. The I'M
ported mechanical toys upon which
we have fallen with gusto and played
happily ourselves until obliged to
hand them over are far better for us,
it seems, than for them. They do the
work for the child instead of making
him do 1t.
Here we have in nutshell the
main principle underlying the selec-
ton of Toys. The child's toys should
stimulate his imagination and make
him work. If he has too many he has
nothing left to imagine; If they re-
spond to the magic of a key, he can
only stand by and watch..-Martha
Cutler, in Harper's Bazaar.

To Escape Gold Bricks.

A man or woman with funds to
invest should make it primary prin
ciple to first consult an experienced
banking house of established reputa-
ton. The first step in the prudent in
vestment of your money is the selec-
ton of your banking house. You
should choose a banker not only will
ing but competent to serve your ev-
cry need-one with the requisite pa
thence and sympathy to study your in,
vestment problem from all angles, to
make your problem his problem.
Few investors realize that within the
past few years there has sprung up a
new guild in the banking business,
bankers whose business runs well over
$100,000,000 annually and whose sue.
cess is largely due to the faithful and
thoughtful attention given each serious
inquiry or request for advice. If you
can save and command 500 or more
each year you can command the best
financial brains In America.-Leslie's 8.

"The publisher signaled to his chauf-

"The publisher, wrapped In furs,

LUCKY ACCIDENT FOR MINER
What at First Seemed Adverse Stroke
of Fate Turned Out a Caprice
of Fortune.

Where hundreds of men are pros
pecting" one of them is liable, OF
course. to stumble upon a ledge that
pans out" In paying gold or silver.
That lucky find" gives birth to a
dozen stories about millionaires who
have become "rich beyond the dreams
of avarice" by some fortunate acci'
dent. The following story Is such a
one.
A miner named Adams was pros.
pecting In a northwestern state. While
trudging along, one hot day, through
a gulch. where the sun had good
chance at his back, he suddenly
smelled smoke. lie glanced quickly
in every direction to ascertain the
origin of the smoke. but seeing moth
ing resumed his Journey A mo-
ment later the smell returned strong
err than ever. A light wreath OF va
por curled about his ears and gave
him to understand that hts hayersack
was on fire. Like all miners, he car.
ried large lens for the purpose OF
examining the specimens OF the sand
in his pan and the truth flashed upon
him. For want OF room he had hung
the glass on the outside and the rays
of the sun had been concentrated on
his haversack, which was thus set on
fire. AS among Its contents were IL
or Is pounds of powder he lost no
time in dropping the burden.
The haversack fell between two
huge stones, out of sight. Adams
reached safe distance and watched
the smoke rising from his worldly pos.
sessions. Suddenly there was deaf
ening report. The ground trembled
and Adams lodged behind huge
stone. Rising, he went to the spot
to gather up what he could find, when
his eyes almost started out OF his
head at seeing the quartz that had
been blown up fairly glittering wltb
gold His powder had done better on
its own account than 1t had ever dor Q
on his, and had literally blown open
a gold mine for his benefit. He was
made a rich man and named his mine
the Mick o. Time"

A Calais newspaper correspondent
writes: Few Calais people realize the
magnitude of the operations at Grand
Falls. 10 miles up the st. Croix river
above Calais. This work is in con
nection with the big paper mill at
Woodland. The payroll for Grand
Falls and Woodland reaches $4,000
weekly. The paper mill makes big
freight trains for the Maine Central
which employs many Calais men at
good wages. The mill and railroad
consume $4,000 tons of coal annually
and this makes lots of work for Cal
ais coal beavers. The coal business
keeps the big four stickers hummiag
bringing coal to Calais, the sailors get
good wages coasting, and so one thing
helps out another and gives Calais as
we'll as Woodland a benefit. Since the
purchase of the Eaton property at
Devils Head and the Mansion House
at RObbinston, other western people
are looking toward the st. Croix for
summer locations and soon the shores
of this pretty river will be lined with
summer homes.

Plain Talk, Des Moines. Ia. has this
to say of a former Maine citizen. At
the September meeting of the board
of trustees of the State library, Arthur
J. Small was reappointed State law
librarian for the fifth time and for a
period of six years. He had held the
position for nearly seventeen years,
having first been appointed by Cover
nor Drake early in 1896. He was one
of the founders of the American Asso-
citation of Law Librarians and it's first
