Expensive Repairs.

In order to stimulate his trade, the
village blacksmith hung out sign
that read, whatever 1t Is, Can Re-
pair It," On the morning of April
fools day, the town wag elbowed his
way through the usual crowd that was
collected round the door, and handed
the blacksmith the parts of broken
lamp chimney.
I'D like you to put this together for
me as soon you can, john" he said,
winking toward the crowd.
The smith took the ragged bits OF
glass, examined them carefully while
the idlers looked on with considerable
amusement. Then he went into the
room in the rear of the shop. Step
ping across the alley to the grocery
store, which was out Of sight of the
crowd, he bought a ten-cent lamp chin
ney exactly like the broken one. How
everyone laughed when he stepped out
of his little room a moment later and
put the whole chimney into the aston
ished wag's hands with the dry re-
mark:
"Tll have to charge half a dollar for
that job"

QUICK WIT SAVED BURGLAR
One Can Imagine Police Officers Feel
ings When He Realized How He
Had Been Fooled.

The up-to-date burglar is quick
witted criminal, and nothing delights
him more than to be "too many" for
the constable, says the London Mall.
To accomplish this he sometimes ex-
hibits a good deal Of wit and daring.
Here is case in point.
A constable, going the rounds OF MS
beat few nights ago, noticed light
in a house from which tie family and
servants had gone to the country. AT
ter pulling the bell several times a
man put his head out of the bedroom
window to say that he would be down
in a few minutes. He came down in
a dressing-gown and carrying candle
in his hand.
The constable explained his suspi-
cion. whereupon the man stated that
he had just run up to town to see that
all was right. After chatting for lit
tie, he invited the constable to have
q glass of wine He lit the dining room
gas and produced a bottle Of port. AT
ter they had drunk each others health
he let the constable out and bolted the
door after him.
The man lost no time in getting the
"swag" together, and left the house
by another exit.

HiohIy Dramatic.

Backward and forward he paced, his
ewes wild and rolling, his face haggard.
AS the minutes passed his agitation
increased.
"Will she never come? Will she
never Gomez" he walled '.--ary. Al
ready it is Is minutes past the appoint
ed time, and yet she is not here"
He pressed his hands to his fevereo
brow and waited. He tried to sit IN
vain, and still waited. He gazed sadly
through the window and went on wait
ing.
At last! All! The sounds Of little
footsteps on the stairs. He turned to
the door, eager, excited.
Yes, it was she!
"You have come, them he gasped,
dizzy with delight, as he grabbed his
hat.
Yes, the stenographer had come
back and it was now his turn to go
out to uncheon.-Pittsburgh Chronicle

CARRYING TWINSHIP TOO FAR
Elder Brother Protested Against the
Accuracy In Duplicate
: Careers.

They were twin sisters, six years
old. They ate, drank, slept, worked
and played like twins. Their careers
so far had been almost identical. They
had brother, eight, who looked down
upon them with the superior wisdom
and experience of his two extra years.
One morning all three were walking
to school together. The sidewalks
and streets were for the most part
covered with ice and snow, making
navigation quite difficult even for
strong, young pedestrians. 1t was too
early for the sun or father to have
cleared off the pavements.
Suddenly one of the twins slipped
and fell solidly to the sidewalk. No
sooner had she accomplished this
graceful descent than the other one
did likewise.
"Aw, Just because she lost a tooth
yesterday and then you went and
pulled one of yours out, too, is no rea-
son why you have to fall down when
she does," was the disgusted comment
Of their eight.year-old brother.-Co-
lumbus Dispatch.

HE KNEW WHEN TO ESCAPE
Story Teller Made His Little Contrl-
button to Gathering, and Then
Left Hurriedly.

Story telling was in progress IN
the village pub, and the next in turn
was a railway plate-layer. Round him
gathered an expectant audience.
"It was Just such a night as thls'
he began, bright and clear, with
touch of frost. I was going down the
line, when 1 saw before me, lying
right across the rails, great beam!
For a moment my heart stood still.
Then a distant rumble warned me
that the midnight mail was approach
ing. With great effort I. flung N.Y.
self between the obstruction and the
line, and the great train passed un-
harmed"
There was a thoughtful silence ar-
ter he had finished speaking. Then
somebody said:
eff you couldn't lift the beam, how
did the train get over it?"
eyes," another interposed, "and II
you flung yourself between the OBJ
struction and the express, why didn't
you get killed"
Both questions are easily an
swered," said the plate-layer, siding
towards the door. 1.-THE obstruction
was a moonbeam, and I jumped for
ward so that my shadow took its
place. Then"
He got outside just in time.-Lon-

GIVES ADVICE TO HUSBANDS
Writer Offers the Suggestion That
More Men Should Occasionally
Praise Their Wives.

Apparently there are some men in
the world who would not be likely to
live long if by any possibility they
should be betrayed into praising their
wives, remarks the Philadelphia In
Quirer.
The man of this description is a
self-suficient creature, who evidently
believes that creation was instituted
for his benefit. He is little sur
prised and a good deal annoyed that
things were not arranged more to his
liking, but he tolerates the arrange
ment, not because he approves of it,
but because he cannot help it.
The wife Of this man is woman
whom no old maid should envy. And
no old maid should ever marry this
man when his wife is worn out and
laid in the grave; if she does she
will regret :. to her latest day-that
is, unless she has backbone enough
to put the man where he belongs and
keep him there. And it is never pleas
ant to any true-hearted woman 10 Ieel
that she has to master her husband
in order to live comfortably with him.
The man who never praises his
wife will find fault with everything on
every possible occasion. 1t is the
easiest thing in the world to find fault
easier than the proverbial sliding
down hill. 1t gets to be a habit with
some men, and they are hardly con-
scious when they are exercising it.
Why cannot man show his wife
that he appreciates her efforts to
please him? Why cannot he praise
the pudding of his wife as well as
the cooking of her neighbor Smith!
Why cannot he speak kindly of her
mince pie, and charitably OF her
sponge cake? Why cannot he say
that the new hat is becoming to the
face Of the woman who loves him?
Kind words make his wife happy,
and no decent man ought to withhold
them, and he will find that the general
run Of affairs in his household Will
be smoother all around.

HumlIIty's Power.

A woman once came to the cave Of a
sage who was renowned for his pro-
found analysis Of her sex.
Father" said she. "let me sit at
your feet awhile. am but woman
faulty and foolish and weak-but /
would fain be the pupil of your learn
ing and the disciple Of your virtues"
And the sage, secure in his wisdom,
consented.
Then he laid himself down to sleep
in the shade of rock, out Of the glare
of the sun. When he awakened he
was blindfolded and bound hand and
foot-a prisoner to love.
He had protected himself against
every feminine weapon except the
most dangerous one-humility!-New
York Evening Sun.
