Now that tho campaign is over wc

rider who was placed in the samo
room with a profound and accom

a nervous sort of man and was
easily annoyed. His snoring friend
dropped off to sleep in a few minutes
as all snorer? do. It is a fact that
a snoror always gets to sloop before
his companions. This particular ono
tried every kind of snoring. Ile
bogan low and gently and then pulled
out ono stop after another, until the
sound resembled a steam piano with
a plaining mill accompaniment. As
tho noise increased tho preacher
became restless. He rolled over and
groaned and grunted and writhed in
agony. Tho snoring continued. It
would run up and down and go with
a jerk over rough places. At last a
succession of snorts came which
wero followed by profound silence.
Tho preacher then gave a deep sigh
of relief and devoutly said : "Thank
God, ho's dead at last."

Stanley is quoted as saying that if

and considering that the clothes worn
in that country don't havo buttons,
wo should think that ho might got
