NO CHANCE TO GET AWAY
AZ cIubman MournfulIy Related, He
Was Caught Whether He Was
"Golng or Coming"

President Walter @. Teagle Of the
Standard Oil company Of New Jersey
said the other day in Washington:
1.-THE fable that my company runs
chain stores and copper mines and
restaurants and so on is SO persistent,
so indomitable, that 1t reminds me of
q story.
"If you do not want to marry her.
why on earth did you propose to herf'
said one clubman to another.
"That's just it, said the other, She
proposed to me-
"'Why didn't you have spunk enough
to refuse her, thenT
"That's just 1t. couldn't. She
worded her proposal so cleverly, you
see. She said, VIII you marry me?
Have you any objection? Thus, wheth-
er I said yes or no, she had me. She
had me going and coming.
"'Not at ALL said the first club
man, with condescending laugh. You
should have observed a discreet 81

"'Just what I did, said the other,
and she fell into my arms, murmur-

ERROR THAT WAS PITIFUL
I little Wife Meant Well, but Dyed
Hair Almost Meant Death Of
Her Husbands Love.


He had gray hair and his wife was
a little blonde, bobbed-hair person
who looked scarcely more than child.
Again and again they were taken for
father and daughter.
She let her hair grow and then she
had it dyed gray.
Her husband was Mortified. Some
how his love seemed to have grown
less.
Il always used to think it hurt him
awfully when was taken for his
daughter" the little woman told the
Woman. "But it seems he loved feel
ing that this young thing was the
woman who had fallen for him. I'm
going to do all can about having
the dye bleached out. You see, I've
bobbed my hair again-and as the new
yellow hairs grow in his love seems
to be coming back again. It's SO hard
to tell" she ended. Il felt I was
doing something so wonderful for him
and it almost broke his heart i"-New

GOT THE MESSAGE TWISTED
carelessness Of Telegraph Operator
Made Mixup Of Somewhat
Amusing Character.

An inspector of railway property
whose duties had taken him to Bridge
port, Conn.,, discovered that the foun-
dation under the local freighthouse
needed repairs. Without delay he filed
this dispatch to the New York office:
Foundation under freighthouse at
Bridgeport unsafe rush men at once"
In sending the message the operator
on the New York wire apparently did
not space the. letters properly in the
word Foundation" and also pressed
too long to form the letter IT.; for
this was the message received in New
York:
"Found Hon under freighthouse at
Bridgeport unsafe-rush men at once"
The inspector was astonished few
hours later to see special work train
come into> the yard with fat car
containing large animal cage and
also ten men expecting to have an
exciting time catching a lion that they
supposed had escaped from some pass
ing circus. Youth's Companion

STORY CALLS FOR AFFIDAVIT
Yarn Of South Carolina Man Almost
Too Much for Ordinary Reader
to Believe. S

Representative James f. Byrnes,
Democrat, Of South Carolina, is not
much of fisherman, but he is fine on
fish stories.
In the cloak room of the house.,
members from various states were
swapping yarns.
Talking about fishing" said Mr..
Byrnes, ''there is one pool in noun
tain streom near Tryon, N. c., will
always remember. was in that part
of the country one summer resting and
rambling for my health and good
time.
II saw mountain man, with hook
and line, make his way to the creek
bank and commence to fish. With my
glasses could see that he had baited
his hook with a tiny frog. For some
time he flshed, throwing the hook out,
but he got no bite. firing Of this, he
stuck his pole In the bank. picked up
small rifle and went to shooting at tar
gets in the Woods. Fearing q stray
shot, came but of hiding and ac-
costed him. While we talked we heard
a commotion near the fishing place.
On looking that way we saw that the
froggie had climbed up the line and
was sitting on the end of the pole sing
ing, and brook trout were jumping out
of the water trying to get him.
Spy George! there's my chancep
said the fisherman. and he ran back
and commenced to shoot the fish as
they rose from the water. Late that
afternoon, when saw him again, he
had a half bushel Of trout he had
shot"
That broke up the meeting.-Utica

Reader Has One Guess.

Uncle John was an ardent supporter
Of the local football club. As re-
spected follower Of the team he had
his own private niche. Aunt Martha,
long puzzled at his regular absence
from home on Saturday afternoons,
decided to investigate.
On the following Saturday Uncle
John did not turn up in the stand
alone, Aunt Martha was with him.
John she asked, soon after the
game started, "what are those eleven
fools in white doing?"
,s'They are trying to put that bit of
leather between those two posts There,
ymy DEAR" he replied.
There was a, short silence.
And what are those eleven other
fools in red doing?" was her next
question.
They are trying to prevent the
other fellows from putting the bah be-
tween the posts, my dear"
Another silence.
"And what are these other 10000
fools doingY' was her next question.
'aThey are all enjoying themselves
except one. London Answers.

Mission House Made Memorial.

The mission house at Kettering,
Northamptopshire. England, where
William Carey ON October 2, 1892.
founded the first missionary society
which Is recognized as the basis Of
the modern missionary enterprise, was
put up for sale, the owner having died
and the estate thus having become
purchasable for the first time since
that memorable occasion. The pur-
chase was made on behalf of the Bap-
fist Laymen's Missionary Movement of.
England. The property will not only
be retained for the denomination as
historic memorial, but will probably be
used as hostel for returned mission
aries.

FORTS WORTH PURCHASING
Uncle Sam Has Them for Sale and
Their Acquisition Might Be
Well Worth While.

Scores of old forts in the United
States are for sale. We don't need
forts any more. except around the
edges of the country and can spare
q good many of those.
Anticipated forts are to go at auc-
ton and other means of sale, and
there is chance to secure some old
fashioned masterpieces and military
antiques.
The real future value of these forts
lies chiefly in their display to tour
lists. Tourists are presently going to
be one of the best money-making prop
Ositions in the United States.
AS few suspected the millions of
dollars that lay in the movies, so the
value of tourists Is not yet appre-
ciated as 1t will be when they begin
to come every summer in armies. NOV
ing eastward and westward
Every tourist will have from $500
to $500 to spend, and the town with
the most sights" and enjoyments is
going to get the most greenbacks.
Names $45.0OO,OO0 year from tour
lists will be but small portion Of the
money circulated.
Every town near an old fort should
get 1t In this bargain sale; and should
acquire everything else that will con-
stitute SHOW" Perhaps some city
will mother an annual worlds fair.

Concerning Plants.

Plants with sweet-smelling flowers
are more common in dry than in moist
climates. Thyme, sage, and lavender.
for instance, bloom profusely on dry
uplands and fill the air with their
scent, but the wild flowers Of low or
swampy ground are seldom highly
scented. and If they are their odors are
unpleasant.
