Looked for Another.

A young and ambitious minister had
accepted an invitation to preach as
a candidate in a church in the south
ern part of Rhode Island. He &C
cepted the invitation, however, on the
condition that he hould supply two
Sabbaths. During the intervening
week he wrote a sermon on the text,

Three Kinds of Fools.

Buck Bryant, the grandest and most
redheadded fighter the state Of North
Carolina ever saw, has figured out to
his own satisfaction who are the big
gest fools in the world. He describes
them as follows: The man who gets
out in a boat and then rocks it for
fun; the man who squints into guns
to see if they are loaded, and the
man who goes for ride on a bicycle
and lets his baby sit on the handle

Just Wanted Some information.

There is a Chicago lawyer, whose
extremely frail physique is frequently
the subject of his own facetiousness.
On one occasion this lawyer was in
a street car, when a burly citizen
boarded as the car turned a curve;
lurched forward and sat down plump
in the lap of the legal light. He rose
with profuse apologies. "Oh," re-
sponded the thin man, cordially,
that's all right. But tell me one
thing, did you think I was painted on
the seat?"

Feminine Curiosity.

Little Eleanor's pretty cousin wore

One night when the happy man had

pon,ta for the Bachelor Girl.

Don't state too firmly that you
never intend to marry. You may
change your mind one day, and then
people will laugh and say, "Methinks
the lady did protest too much" or
something equally calculated to make
you feel uncomfortable.
Don't say Of your engaged friends,

UNKNOWN LAKES AND RIVERS
Interior of Labrador Found to Possess
Many Unmapped Bodies Of Water
and Streams.

Chains of lakes hitherto unmapped
and rivers equally unknown were ira
versed in the interior of Labrador by
the exploring parties of representa-
tives of the National Geographic suci-
ETY. and the Carnegie museum, Pitts
burgh, which arrived nj st. Johns, n.
T., recently, says correspondent
The journey covered about $50 miles
over ii route never before travelled by
white men and was made more difficult
by the fact that the five Indians who
were taken along as guides proved to
be unfamiliar with the country.
The party included Il. b. c. Todd,
curator Of ornithology in the Carnegie
museum; o. j. Murie, curator of MANI
mails in the same institution, and Al
fred Marshall of Chicago.
They left Seven Islands bay on the
north side of the Gulf of ST. Lawrence,
about the end Of May and Travelled
north by canoe and portages, reach
ing Fort Chino, near Urgavn bay, Au-
gust %. In addition to mapping tle
country, they studied its natural his
tory.
Mr.. Todd said the existing maps of

inaccurate and altogether misleading,
having been made by guesswork from
information supplied by Indians.

Submarines Lifeboat.

For long time attempts have been
made TO evolve some sensible scheme
for permitting crew TO escape when
n submarine sinks, gets ensnared in
net, or for some reason becomes nm
manageable While under water. An
invention that has lately been protect
ed by patents is described In Popular
Mechanics. II is lifeboat and. in
reality. small auxiliary submarine
that normally is held In concavc seat
constructed in the top part OF the large
craft. Water-tight hatchways are pro-
vlded in each Of the vessels, so that ac-
cess from one to the other Of them Is
possible. II Is intended TO offer u safe
retreat for some thirty persons. Flee
trio and gasoline motors would propel
Il and give it a radius of action esti-
mated ut about 800 miles. In the event
of accident, members OF the crew
would enter the liseboat, close the
hatchways, free the small craft by un-
screwing two large bolts that anchor
II to the larger one, and rise to the
surface.

PRIME MINISTER'S DAY OFF
Lloyd George Has Been Known to Dig
Out Badger Just as a tioIi-
day Pastime.

The picturesque account which has
been given Of the prime minister's agri-
cultural activities on the Sussex farm
on she occasion of his recent vacation
is probably suggestive only Of the YER
satility displayed by him in the matter
of holiday making.
Mr. Lloyd George has been even
known tn dig out badger, says Lon
don Tit-Bits. In the vestlbule of his
official residence may be seen II mag
niticent stuffed specimen which he
helped 10 bring TO the surface some
years ago on Lord Cowdray'S estates IN
the same county.
1t is doubtful, indeed whether. ex-
cept in the matter of arboricuture
pursuits, the present prime minister
has derived Il precedent from any Of
his predecessors. The nearest. APP
proach, perhaps, is Mr.. Balfour, whe
goes in for farming Mt his Scottish
home at Whlttingehame, where some
splendid cattle have been turned out.
The late Lord Salisbury found his
principal source of recreation away
from the cares of office In his labora-
tory Mt Hatfield house, where he fol-
lowed the peculiar bent of his family
in scientific aud electrical pursuits.
Sir Henry Campbell Zimmerman.

with passion for novel reading: Lord
Rosebery, whose literary tastes are
well known, spends most of his tine

seat; while Mr.. Gladstone, when not at
