^tumorous department. Limited ForgiveneaB. Mr. Klutz, of North Carolina, told the following: ? "Two brothers, John and Jacob, had lived to old age in the most amicable relations, when, over some trival oc- a currence, they 'fell out,' as we say in 6 North Carolina, and no longer even spoke as they passed by. Finally, * John, the younger of the two, felt im- e pelled to try to make things up. He rode over to Jacob's house and vainly 0 accosted the old man who was sitting 11 on the porch; but refused to speak to, or take any notice of him. Nothing e daunted, John bravely broached his e errand. ^ " 'Now, Brudder Jacob,' said he, 'you e know we-ve been livin like brudders r now nigh on to 40 year, and we've had this onfortunit rainn out, ana i ve j?i come over to see If we can't make it up.' * "Jacob, with his head in his hands made no response. " 'Now, Brudder Jacob,' John went 0 on, 'you know we've lived like brud- h ders ought for nigh on 40 year, and our " fader's dead and our mother's dead and all our brudders and sisters is dead, And we's all that's left. Let s make it ? up, Brudder Jacob? If I've done you b any harm, I hope you'll forgif me and 1 if you've done me any harm I freely r forgif you.' 11 "Jacob still made no response, and John went on with one last effort at b reconciliation: ' " 'Now, Brudder Jacob,' said he, 'you ? know we've been going to the commun- r ion table over here at the organ church v for nigh on to 40 year, and the saclement meetin is comin on over thar next 1 Sunday, and we ought to go to that ? meetin: but we can't go with'such feel- * ln's like these in our hearts; we ought r to forgif one another and go to that 1 table with right feelin's in our hearts, 1 like brudders ought, and like we al- 8 ways used to do. Let's make it up, Brudder Jacob.' * "Old Jacob was touched and partly s won at last, and looking up, he said. c 'Well, Brudder John, I freely forgit you 8 till after the saclement meetln; but * not a blamed minute longer.'

A lawyer received a new client the r other day?a big man named Prazier, e who wanted to sue to recover ?500 advanced on a note and not repaid. "Who is the client?" asked the law- ? yer. g 'Oh, she's a relation of mine." "How nearly related?" "Very nearly." "But my dear sir," persisted the lawyer, "you must be more explicit." "Well, she may be my mother-inlaw." "Mnvhs hp? Thpn von are likelv to marry her daughter?" "I've already married the daughter." "Oh, then, of course, the defendant Is your mother-in-law?" "I guess you'd better hear the whole story," said the man named Frazier. He heaved a weary sigh and then 3 went on: "You see, a year ago we lived * together?my son Bill and I. Across * the way lived the Widow Foster and d her daughter Mary. Well, sir, I married Mary because she was good look- ^ lng. My son Bill married the widow ' because she had heaps of money. Now, perhaps, you can tell me whether the ^ old lady is my mother-in-law or my daughter-ln-law." But the lawyer couldn't?at least, not 1 just then. The problem had struck 1 him all in a heap. He looked wild- s eyed and his brain was reeling. a "Perhaps when you've settled that r question you'll undertake my suit," c Frazier added. "The old lady borrow- v ed the money fair and square and she 1 can pay it back: but she won't so I've P got to sue." v "I don't think I'll take your case," 8 faltered the lawyer. "The case?er? er?presents too many complications." r "By the way," said Frazier disap- 1 pointedly, as he took up his hat and 8 prepared to go, "since the double wed- v ding a child has been born to each c couple. Can you tell me what relation ' the two children are to each other?" 0 But the lawyer couldn't.?Tit-Bits i?' The Rev. Edward Forrest Hallenbeck resigned his pastorate In the Clinton Square Presbyterian church, at Albany, last Sunday to accept a call to Binghampton, N. Y. A friend of the family cabled at the home of the Hallenbecks on Monday to offer any assistance he could during the migratory ? period. In answer to his ring at the door bell a young child of the clergyman appeared. "Where is your papa?" he asked. The child looked up Innocently and replied: "Up stairs, praying for guidance." "And your mother?" added the visitor. "Down stairs taking up the carpet," the child answered, as innocent as could be.?New York Times. As to Quail.?Two old hunters were swapping yarns and had got to quail. "Why," said one, "I remember a year wjien quail were so thick that you could get eight or ten at a shot with a rifle." The other one sighed. "What's the matter?" said the first, cl 'VI was thinking of my quail hunts, v I had a fine black horse that I rode 3 everywhere, and one day out hunting '] quail I saw a big covey on a low r branch of a tree. I threw the bridle ? rein over the end of limb and took r a shot. o "Several birds fell and the rest flew 3 away. e "Well, sir, there were so many quail p on that limb that when they flew off t it sprang back into place and hung my h horse!"?Los Angeles Times. o ? ? r Tiik Careless Gunner.?"There, my h dear," said the returned hunter, t "there's one bird for you, anyway, c Hugged him just as I was about to give v up in disgust." o "Oh, George!" she exclaimed, "it's a i< carrier pigeon, isn't is?"

"Superstition is more prevalent I.mong the American people than Is V :enerally supposed," said a book agent, E and even the heard-headed. Intelligent n armers are, to a certain extern, uuuvk- u d with it. ' b "I remember asking a farmer 60 years h Id, a man of more than ordinary Intel- si igence, the owner of 1,000 acres of fine ir and. well slocked, and who had Rev- f< ral thousand dollars in bonds and oth- tl r securities, why he aid not build h ilmself a better house. The one he Uv- I d in was old, small and dilapidated, a f< elic of the days when he was poor. d " 'Afraid to,' was the reply. " 'Afraid of what?' I asked. a " 'Well, you see, I have always heard o hat when an old man builds a new tl louse he never lives long to use it.' d "I laughed, but he was perfectly serl- tl us, and I found that in that neighbor- v lood the superstition was generally be- h ieved in. % ii "Another saying was common in the e: ocality. 'The man who plants a tree o enerally lives to enjoy its fruit.' The is lelief in these saying was shown by si he number of poor farmhouses and the a lumber of fine orchards in that neigh- r< lood. p " 'Seed corn shelled at night grows n iest,' is another saying frequently used P n the corn belt. A farmer's son sug- c ;ested that it was invented by the old E nan as an excuse for making the boys s rork at night. w " 'Things planted during the dark of a he moon produce the best roots is so :enerally accepted as true that vegeta>les like potatoes, turnips, beets, carots, and onions are planted during 1 he light of the moon by few people, dany scientific farmers believe in this luperstition. v " 'The farmer who refuses water to a 1 raveler's horse will see his own live v tock suffer from thirst before the end h if the year,' is a belief so common in ome localities as to insure courteous n reatment to all travelers. v "Some farmers will wring the neck ? if a hen if she crows. They say a n rowing hen brings bad luck to the arm, and, as I heard one old farmer a emark, 'sets the wimmen folks a bad s xample.' 4 44 'Borrowed eggs always hatch, is a laying probably invented by some * tingy man as an excuse for borrow- 1 ng, but it is so generally believed in a ome neighborhoods that a regular sys- M em of borrowing and lending is carried a in. "These and hundreds of other super- v titlons are so generally believed in a hat they govern the customs of comnunities to a surprising extent." d . . , b FROM CONTEMPORARIES. f o lewi and Comment That Is of More s or Less Local Interest. v YORK. 1 Rock Hill Herald, November 9: Our d tatement that Jim Jackson, the Negro p >oy who was accidentally shot last ^ Sunday morning and who died on xueslay, had fired the shot himself, was ^ iased on information received then. Lt the coroner's inquest, held Tuesday, t did not appear clear as to who had Ired the shot?the Negro himself or ? ,'laude Romedy, the young white man n whose room Jackson was at the " ime. Both were handling pistols; but he shot was so sudden and unexpec- e ed and both were so much excited, p tanding close together as they were, ^ nd both dropping the pistols when the e eport rang out, that neither could tell p ertainly in whose hand the pistol was i-hen it was fired. The wounded boy ^ hought young Romedy had fired the " ilstol; but could not be certain; but he 1 vas sure that even if he did fire it the hot was accidental. After investigat- a ng the circumstances fully the jury S1 endered a verdict that they could not ell from the evidence who fired the n hot; but they were satisfied that it q y. vas accidental Sallie Brown, a olored woman who lives in this city, q t'ent to Lancaster a few days ago and a n her return got off the train at n -esslie and set out afoot for Rock Hill. ^ IVhen she was within about a mile if the city, Constable J.

Japan, it seems, is not overburdened rith millionaires. For many months 'he JIJi Shlmpo, one of the leading ernacular newspapers of the empire. as been making an investigation wun he purpose of ascertaining how many ien there are in the Mikado's realms rho possess 500,000 yen or more. The en is about 50 cents in United States ioney. The Jiji has discovered that there re exactly 441 persons whose possesions aggregate at least $250,000. Tokio, he capital, possesses one-third of hem; but eight provinces surrounding hat city have scarcely and rich men. 'he other great cities ranked in order ccording to the number of their cap:alists are Osaka, Kobe, Nagaya, Kioto nd Yokohama. It will seem strange to foreigners, to /horn Yokohama is the best known of 11 Japanese cities, that it should be ist in The Jiji's list. The statistician oes not attempt to account for this; ut in explanation of the fact the preecture of Kiushiu, always looked upn as the richest in the empire, has few emi-millionaires, the paper says, that /hile there are not many rich men here, yet its wealth is very generally istributed and there are no poor peole. Commenting upon the information hus brought to light by The Jiji the apan Daily Mail, a paper published in Inglish in Yokohama, says: "Comparing these results with Amer:an statictics, it appears that whereas here are 3,827 persons in the United tates credited with possessing a milon gold dollars each and upward, or, 1 other words, one millionaire for very 20,000 Inhabitants, supposing the opulation to be 75,000,000, there Is In apan only one semi-millionaire for very 100,000 inhabitants, taking the opulation at 45,000,000. Reducing tiese figures to the same denomination pen), it would appear that there are ist ten times as many men of wealth l America as In Japan. "But before accepting that conclusion large correction is evidently necesiry, since, although there may be only 828 millionaires in the states, there lay be fifty or a hundred thousand uarter-millionaires. Obviously, since alf a million yen is equal to only a uarter of a million dollars, no accurte comparison can be made until the umber of quarter-millionaires in merica is ascertained." The Jiji's figures also reveal the fact lat manufacturing is still in its infany in Japan, for in the list of 441 men f wealth both the farmer and the merhant classes have a larger representaon than has the manufacturing class, t is also noticeaole that out of the 441 o fewer than sixty-six are noblemen rho do not pursue any trade or profeslon. A remarkable fact is that not lore than one or two in every ten have massed their wealth in one generaion; the others have inherited a great art of it.

MAXIMS FOR THE GIRL IN LOVE. Vine ConelimlonM Thnt Have Been Born of Experience. You love for yourself, and if you larry, you seal the destiny, happy or retched, of your own life. Therefore, ever marry for others. Marry for our sake. Let no human being, howver dear to you, have a right to vioite the true instinct of your heart, or ut a constraint on your love. Only be careful; do not imagine that ou are in love before you have tried 11 the tests which may convince you tiat you really are. You may be only jo liable to mistake a caprice, a fancy, romantic day dream for true love. First love is seldom true love. A rhole series of light fancies which have een mistaken for love have often been illowed by the earnest passion of a fe. The credulity of women on the subset of being loved is very great. They ften mistake a little admiration for a articular regard, and on this foundaon build up a castle in the air and fill with all the treasures of their brightst hopes. It is safer to be very skepcal on the subject of being loved: but you make the mistake, take all the 1 lame on yourself and save your dig- j lty by secrecy, if you cannot keep * [>ur heart from loving. Men will always be polite, attentive, ' smplimentary and paying you all sorts ! little flatteries, both of words and jj ictlons. Accept them quietly and h :almly, as your right, but never seem 1 o give more weight than In nine cases >ut of ten they have. a Hurry no courtship Into an engage- v nent, and never make an engagement a rom which you cannot honorably with- a Iraw. Y When you feel perfectly sure that j fou love a man, there are many sub- ^ le ways for you to let him know It. I lave always failed to understand why voinen should not choose their hus- j( )ands and why only unmarried reignng queens can do so. I do not see why t hey should not propose. Of course, hey should do so In a manner quite a HfTerent from that in which men pro- j >ose. But very often a girl can make her j :ho!ce from a circle of admirers, glv- r ng the needed encouragement to the ^ >ne she prefers, and deciding for her- t self her life's drttiny. 8 There are men, and very often the t 'toi, ivw, nuu aic oil j auu accu cu- ^ :ouragement, inasmuch as it should be emembered that the men who declare e heir lov j in most beautiful language g ire those who love least truly.

WHEN you remember the dead of your family, you show to the world that your love for them Is not burled with the body. It Is a duty you owe yourself and to the one that is , gone, to place a neat Monument or Tombstone over the last resting place' of departed loved ones. To do this the expense is not great, and it shows to the world that your love for the dead is as lasting as stone. If you have relatives burled in unmarked graves do not let it remain so, when the expense of marking the grave properly is so small. Get my prices and see the styles of work I have to offer you.
