MUCH LIKE A CONSTELLATION
Be Shown One Star, But He
Saw Several

He had been celebrating, not wisely,
but too we'll, and getting obstreperous
and noisy and looking for a fight he
was tackled by a policeman who in
plain clothes was on his way home.
The drunken one showed fight and
was indignant that an apparently pri-
vate citizen should try to arrest him.
"Show me your start" he demanded.
Don't believe you're a cop at all.
Won't go with you till I see your STAR"
and he aimed a maudlin blow at the
policeman.
There was scuffle and a fight,
short-lived but strenuous, and the
drunken man was landed in the police
station, where he stayed all night. In
the morning it was a disheveled and
torn wreck that appeared before the
magistrate and who listened to the po-
liceman relate the trouble he had in
getting him to the station house.
HE wanted to fight me all the way
to the station, your honor He kept
pulling back and trying to trip me and
yelling, Show me your star! I don't
go unless you show me your STAR"
And" asked the magistrate gently,
did you show him your starr"
''Your honor" interrupted the pris.
Oner, 'he clouted me on the head and
saw the star--I saw several of them,

One Sunday afternoon a mad dog
raced through the streets of Cahors.
1t had bitten several other dogs, .,

who was passing, threw himself head
long on the dog, and tried to strangle
1t. People shouted to him that he
would be bitten; and he was bitten.

Great Plague of London,

Medical authorities agree that tho
epidemic which prevailed in London
IN 1855 was what we now call bu.
bonic plague. 1t is well known that
this "Black Death" was prevalent in
various parts of the world in ancient
times. The outbreaks were peculiarly
violent then by reason of the condi.
tions of poverty and the almost total
absence of sanitation. 1t was the an.
c1ent medical writer's who gave it the
name Of the plague.
The mortality in London in 1866
was appalling. Thousands We're swept
away by the dread malady, and there
was a great exodus from the stricken
city. Some of the medical authorities
thought 1t had been brought into Lon.
don in bales of merchandise coming
from Holland, which originally came
from the Levant; others contended
that It was brought in by Dutch pris.
0ners of war.

The simple people of Alsace, who

a German. On election day peasant
came to the polling place, which was

Mein Herr he said to the German
election official, will you tell me
which of these tickets is the better

The officer looked at them. "Why,
this is much preferable" said he, in.
dicating the Germans ticket.
'.Ah, thank you," answered the
peasant. II will keep it next my
heart" He folded it carefully and put
it inside his coat GAS for this other,

it away from him as an unworthy
thing, Il will leave it here" And he
put the Kable ticket in the ballot box.
