tumorous department. On Instalment Plan.?They were experts in many things, but chiefly in the art of bragging. At the moment they were discussing their own wonderful triumphs as vocalists. "Why," said the American, looking at his companion from the smoke rings of his cigar, "the first time I sang in public the audience literally showered me with bouquets, flowers of every sort, size and description. Bless you, there were enough of them to fill a flower shop!" "Faith, an' I can beat that!" cried the Irishman. "The first toime I sang was at an open air concert, and, begorra, the audience were that delighted they presented me a house. "What!" exclaimed the American. "Presented you a house! You must be off year head, man!" "Not a bit of it," replied Pat. "I tell ye, they gave me a house. True," he added in a whisper, "they gave me a brick at a toime!" A Poignant Anecdote.?"The great fault of American servants is familiarity. To be familiar is to be inefficient. A familiar cook is as inefficient as a pessimistic doctor." The speaker, Mrs. Boardman Harriman, is perhaps the most brilliant conversationalist in New York?a fact which renders more poignant this anecdote. "I had a cook," she continued, "whom I tried to break of her over-familiarity. What was the result? This cook, discussing me in the servant s hall, said: " 'I don't say she's a bad mistress, but she's a woman with only one ide-j. She can't talk of a single thing but eating." ? With a great sense of awe and importance the young couple stood in front of the parson, the new baby comfortably slumbering in its mother's arms. Evidently with an idea of improving the occasion, the new curate saw fit to launch into a gentle homily on the child's future upbringing. "Who knows?" he finished up. "This child may one day become a clergy man like myself, or a brave soldier, or daring sea captain. It is even possible that he may one day become an illustrious statesman." The little mother's eyes had gradually grown rounder and rounder. "What name did you say?" said the parson. In a timid whisper came the apologetic reply: "Jemima Ann, sir!" Wasted Sweetness.?"Lady," said the Chicago heeler, "here a box of candy to take home to de kids." "Sir," said the lady voter, "candy is deficient in proteids, contains an excess of albuminoids and its use by the adolescent is provacative of many infirmities which we, as new members of the electorate, are trying to eradicate. Further more, your tender of this package is in violation of section 3, 11, 44 of the criminal code, which deals with attempted bribery, and which carries a heavy penalty." To which the heeler could only reply: "Well, wot T'ell wot T'ell?" Juvenile Frankness.?A clergyman visiting a school near Windsor, and trying to illustrate the meaning of conscience, asked a class of boys: "Supposing: one of you stole a piece of sugar and put it in your mouth, and some one came in?what would happen?" "I'd get a thrashing," piped a small voice "Yes, but your face would become red, wouldn't it? What would make it do that?" "Trying to swallow the sugar quick, sir." Conjugal Felicity.?A teacher in a Liverpool school was trying to find from a tiny child the name of his father, says the Liverpool Post. He seemed quite unable to think of it, so to help him she asked: "What do you call him?" "I call him father," was the reply. "Well, what does your mother call him?" The response was eloquent of the manners of the neighborhood: "She doesn't call him anything?she likes him." 1 . Succinct.?Representative Simeon D. Fess of Ohio, believes in looking for the brightest side of life; he is "strong" for optimism. His distinction between an optimist and a pessimist is apparent in the following definition which he sometimes gives: "A pessimist," says Representative Fess, "asks 'Is there any milk in that pitcher?" But an optimist says, 'Pass the cream.'" Softly.?"He remarked that men are but clay." "Bright." "And she asked him if that applied to her." "And then?" "He replied that it applied to all. And now his name is mud." "She threw cold water on him, eh?" ?Houston Post. W A railroad engineer was boasting about the speed of his engine. "Why," he said, "once when I had a new fireman with me on run 32 he asked me in a surprised way if that wasn't a rather long white fence beside the line." "White fence!" says I, with a roar of laughter. "That's no white fence. That's milestones." iti' "Who can make a sentence and use the word 'income* correctly?" asked the teacher of the second {trade. "You may tell us, Johnny," indicating a little boy whose hand was waving violently. "The kitchen door was left open and in come a rat," was the triumphant response.?Harper's Magazine. Fair Words or Nothing.?"George," said the wife to her generally unappreciative husband, "how do you like my new hat?" "Well, my dear," said George with great candor, "to tell you the truth?" "Stop right there, George! If you're going to talk that way about it I don't want to know." Puzzled.?Husband?I see that a German has invented a clock that tells the day of the month by sounding the number. Wife?I don't see how it can tell the 10th, 20th and 30th of the month. It can strike the one, two and three all right, but how can it sound the cipher? iHiscfUanrous Reading. EXAMINATION QUESTIONS Problems Given Applicants for Teachers' Certificates Last Week.

Feminine Fear of Mice.?Once more there is excuse for asking how much of sincerity there is in the fear of mice to which so many women give such vehement expression. A night telephone operator over in New Jersey saw one of the little creatures steal out on the floor of the room in which she was keeping her lonely vigil, and, though his attack was not on her, but on the crumbs of her luncheon, she promptly fainted. On recovery she rushed into a closet, where she was Imprisoned until morning by the spring catch on the hastily slammed door. Meanwhile all efforts to call "central" were vain, and the snow-storm received many undeserved objurgations. Yet this young woman, like all others knows that mice are perfectly harmless?that they never did hurt anybody and never will. The wicked suggestion has been made that feminine outcries on the appearnncc of mice are a mere fashion or habit, inveterate now, but originating in nothing better than a desire to show an interesting sensitiveness and timidity and to give rescuing man a chance to show his superiority. There must be something more to it than thai, however, for not a few women, even when quite alone, as this one was, manifest almost convincing indication of this fear, perhaps not the less real because so unnecessary. Apparently the fear is instinctive, but nothing in ancestral history explains the instinct since in the line of mothers running back through the troglodytes to merely anthropoid forebears, never a one was devoured by a mouse, and not more than half a dozen in all can have been bitten by one. And instincts are not so easily made.? New York Times. THE TRADE DOLLAR Story of a Coin That Proved a Complete Failure. The "trade dollar," which was common enough 30 or 40 years ago, is now no longer current, and is, of course, an unfamiliar sight to the present generation. Its intrinsic value is only about 45 cents, although coin collectors will sometimes pay 85 cents for a specimen. Trade dollars were authorized by congress in 1873, for the purpose of stimulating trade with the Orient. For many years the Mexican silver dollar has been a highly valued coin in nearly all far eastern countries. Hundreds of millions of them are shipped to China, Japan, the Philippines, and other lands in that part of the world, to pay for the products exported thence to Europe and the United States. Congress thought that a coin of the same weight and size as the Mexican dollar, with the imprint of the United States, could be used with advantage. During the five years beginning with 1873, the United States mint produced nearly 36,000,000 of these dollars. Most of them were exported, but enough of them remained in our own country to lead to some confusion by reason of their similarity to the standard silver dollar. In 1887 congress provided that for six months thereafter all trade dollars presented at the treasury should be exchanged for standard silver dollars. After that time trade dollars were to be worth only their metal value. Nearly 8,000,000 were redeemed, and when this period for redemption came to an end, probably less than 1 per cent of the number that had been coined remained in this country. The trade dollars show on one side a sitting figure of the Goddess of Liberty, and on the other an eagle of a different design from that on the standard dollar. The inscription is: "United States of America, Trade Dollar, 420 grains, 900 fine." The standard silver dollar weighs 412J grains. The weight of the Mexican dollar is 417.74 grains, but it is 90.27 per cent pure silver, so that although it weighs less, its metal value is about the same as that of the old trade dollar.? Youth's Companion. U. S. GREATEST OIL PRODUCER California's Output Alone Was 100,000,000 Barrels Last Year. Once more the twelve months' pro gress may tie reviewea in comparative detail without referring more than casually to fields other than those which have claimed the principal attention for several years past, says the London Times. The United States easily maintains its pre-eminent position as a producer. The production of approximately 30,000,000 metric tons represents 63 per cent of the world's output. The increase during the pa^t year has been of very moderate dimensions. California, which otherwise is most favorably situated to contribute to the increase, is hampered by the difficulty of reaching outside markets. Impatiently it is awaiting the opening of the Panama canal '.o pour its accumulated stocks of 50 000,000 barrels and its immense reserves which are still underground into eastern markets but already the highest authorities are foreshadowing the time when the stream of oil through the pipe lines will be reversed to meet the requifements of the Pacitic coast. Last year's California output is estimated at nearly 100,000,000 barrels, an increase of 10 per cent. The import ance attached to this field may be gauged from the anxiety of the Royal Dutch-Shell Transport group to obtain a footing where the Standard Oil company has hitherto reigned supreme. Other additions to the output of the United States are expected from the midcontinental fields of Oklahoma and Kansas, only the fringes of which have as yet been tapped. Indeed, every single producing district on the continent may be said to be increasing its output. Feverish activity has prevailed in the high-grade regions east of the Mississippi, but it is extremely doubtful if the output in the eastern fields can be increased more than temporarily. Birds That Fight Eagles.?In Foula, one of the Shetland islands, the natives make a business of rearing skau gulls in order to rid the island of the eagles that congregate there and commit many depredations. The magnificent red sandstone cliffs that skirt the north-western const became it favorite haunt of the eagles, and in this inaccessible spot they increased so rapid ly ihut they became a terror to the farmers and fishermen who dwell on this isolated spot. The skau gulls are also strong and tierce and the inveterate foes of the eagle. In battle the gulls are nearly always victorious, and so the inhabitants of Foula hit upon the novel plan of feeding and caring for the skau gulls, which, though formidable to their feathered enemies, are very peaceful and docile when brought in contact with man.

Pyrene Fire Extinguisher The Pyrene Fire Extinguisher is the most effective device that has ever been invented for extinguishing Are. It was perfected in 1907. A Pyrene Extinguisher is worth more than a well equipped tire department within five minutes after a Are starts?it will extinguish the Are and does no damage. There should be at least one in every dwelling and at least two in every store in York county. It is always ready for use, and you will nlwnvs know where to And it. if you have one in your store or place of business, if you need it. The price of the Extinguisher is $7.50. I am prepared to allow 15 per cent reduction on insurance on all automobiles equipped with a Pyrene Extinguisher or 5 per cent reduction on country stores that have two Pyrenes. I have a limited supply of Pyrene Extinguishers on hand and will be pleased to furnish any desired information about them. I am sole agent for this section, but owing to the fact that the profit to the agent is very small, I do not expect to make a systematic canvass. You can get one or more by seeing me. You may never need one, but if you do and have not got it, you would gladly pay several times its cost to have the use of it. See me about it today. SAM M.
