Turn Laugh on Lawyers.

Overshrewd lawyers often furnish
their adversaries with weapons.
Did you see this tree that has
been mentioned by the roadside?" an
advocate inquired.
Yes, sir, I saw it very plainly"
1T was conspicuous, them"
The witness seemed puzzled by the
new word. He repeated his former
assertion.
What is the difference" sneered
the lawyer, between plain and con-
spicuous?"
But he was hoist with his own Pc
tard. The witness i~nnocently an
swered:
Il can see you plainly. sir. among
the other lawyers, though you are not
a bit conspicuous"
In another instance a blow direct
ed against the character of a witness
forcibly recoiled.
You were in the company of these
people?" he was asked.
"Of two friends, sir"
Friends, Two thieves, ! suppose
you mean?"
THAT may be true" was the dry
retort; they were both lawyers"
The blow that destroyed the effect
of an adverse examination is oc-
casionally more the result of acct
dent than of conscious effort. In a
trial not long ago a very simple wit
ness was in the box and after going
through his ordeal was ready to re-
tire. One question remained:
Now, Mr.. has not an attempt
been made to induce you to tell the
court a different story"
"A different story to what | have
told. sir?"
Yes; is il not sou
Yes, sir"
Upon your oath ! demand to
know who the persons are who have
attempted this"
We'll. sir. you've tried as hard as
any of EN-" was the unexpected an
swer.
II ended the examination.

While a travelling man was wait
ing for an opportunity to show his
samples TO a merchant in a little
backwoods town in Missouri, a GUS
toner came in and bought a couple
of night shirts. Afterwards a long

stuffed in his boots, said to the mer-

Good Reading for Sunday
Buckwheat Cakes and Sausage.

Buckwheat Cakes and Sausage.
Wow!
Days of my boyhood,
I'm dreaming of you now,
Buckwheat cakes and sausage, say,
Nothing ever came our way
With the soul enhancing punch
OF a red hot, rich brown lunch
Only ones own mother makes,
Slid right off onto your plate
From the griddle at the rate
OF two a minute, they were what
Make the ordinary lot
OF mankind a sort of slice
Turned right out of Paradise,
Chunks of butter shattered on
Like the golden clouds of dawn
Melting Ger the morning sun,
When the daytime has begun,
And the maple syrup stream
Seeping through them like a dream
Full of sweetness coming true
AS it slipped inside of you.
Wow,
Do you mind that now?
Then the sausage on the side,
Pork and plenty, Joy betide,
And the smell of them and sight
Fairly made your appetite
Paw the table un~restrained
Till a m%outhful had been gained
One big mouthful-close your eyes
See the gates of Paradise
Open wide, as happy fate,
There Is plenty or your plate.
Buekwheat cakes and sausage-oh,
That was in the long ago.
And the kind we get today
Oh, my;
Why?

Where a mans W eyes kin see as

And farther too-in hat at

Than a man with a telescope kin

I'm goin' home TO the mimi town,
Where the boys is sinkin' the deep

Where the hills is steep an the seem

An there amt no foliage any

I'm goin' home TO the raw old camp,
Where the whistles boot an the en-
gines stamp;
Where nobody asks you, who are
you?
But only. Hey there; what kin you
do?"
Where the Stag dumps glow an the
ore ears bang,
An the six-horse teamsters shout,
"G'lang!"
Where the chimneys flare with a
hundred hues;
Where you play the game with a
stack of blues;
Whoop II you're winner an grin If
you lose;
Where the pace is fast an the blood
runs hot,
An you blow in all of the ash
you've got
I'm goin' home.
I'm goin' home to my own again.
To the breezy girls an the s~ix-foot
men.
To the rocky hills an the sagebrus6
plains.
Where it always pours an it never
rains;
Six thousand feet above the sea,
Where the heart beats swift an the
soul is free;
Where you live like a live one-an
when you die
They lay you under the alkali
An drink to your soul in a whisky
straight,
An shake fer the drinks at the
graveyard gate.
You kin have my job an my Office
space;
/ want to get out TO the good old
place
Where the peaks are white as the
ocean foam
I'm goin' home.

In the Last Days.

III the last DAYS.
AS We grow old. how softly. slowly
close
The doors of sense, and shut us
from the world,
Like tender petals of some lingering
That, of a frosty night, have in
ward eurled!
Dim as the figures in a dream now
Those glitt'ring shows that stirred
our youthful hearts.
Poor, hurrying shadows in a misty
glass,
Each but a moment seen ere it de-
parts.
Nor sight, nor sound, nor taste, of
earth's delights
Can longer please; these things
are past and gone.
The soul will put her quiet house to
rights,
And in the upper chamber watch
the dawn.

A NEW EGG CASE.

An Oregon inventor has tackled the
proposition of devising a method of
packing eggs for shipment that will re-
duce breakage in transit. Sheets of
nodded pulp board are used for this
purpose, each sheet having holes even
~ spaced and of such diameter as to
fit firmly over an egg a short distance
from the end. When packed each egg
projects slightly through two adjacent
sheets, the spacing of the holes being
such that no two eggs are in contact
A case of eggs packed with handmade
sheets of this description was loaded
over the rear axle of an express wagon.
hauled rapidly over Il rough plank log
ging road and dumped on the station
platform as a package of unbreakable
merchandise would be. Only one egg
sut of the fifty dozen which the case
contained was broken, and ii is
claimed that this was the result of an
imperfection in the handmade sheet.

A SELECTION OF BULBS.

For those who have not yet secured
their supply of bulbs for winter and
spring, suggestion as to varieties
may be found helpful The writer has
found the following very satisfactory:
Tulips-La Refine (white), Queen of the
Netherlands pink, Yellow Prince,
Rose Grisdelin white with pink tips,
CourOnne dor (orange), Murillo pink
and Rubra MaXima deep red. OF
those named the blossoms of the first
four are single. and of the last three
double. OF the narcissi, the double
Won Sion and Orange Phoenix are
among the best, while of the single
varieties the Emperor and Empress
are very satisfactory. OF the hya-
cinths the Gigantea blush pink, La
Grandesse (white). General Pelissier
bright rcd and L'Esperance bright
deep violet are among the choicest
The bulbs should be put in rich sandy
earth in pots or in groups in boxes
about an inch below the surface, and
the pots and boxes containing them
submerged in earth in still larger
boxes They should be watered
enough to keep the earth moist but
not wet After the roots have develop
ed well the pots may be brought up
as desired, depending upon whether
one wishes early or later bloom. The
bulbs are easily handled, and no fami-
ly should be without few to give
bloom when other flowers are scarce.
