At Last.?An Irishman who fell
down a coal shaft, had a curious experience.
The shaft was a new one.
about 75 feet deep, and when Pat
tumbled in he did not go the whole
distance immediately. He lodged
about a third of the way down, and
his fellow miners struggled to save
him, Pat directing the operations.
Just as they, thought they had succeeded,
he crashed down another 25
feet, when an obstruction caugnt nun,|
and the rescue campaign was begun
anew and with greater difficulty.
When they were a second time on the
point of success, to the dismay of the
rescuing party, Pat went headlong
into the lower depth. Now all was
silent, no sound from the unfortunate
Irishman.
Leaning far over the edge of the
shaft, the foreman shouted through a
trumpet: "Pat, I say, Pat!"
Prom the darkness and mystery of
the underworld came the solitary answer:
"Hurroo!"
"Are you much hurt, Pat?"
"I am not."
"Where are you, Pat?"
"What's that ye're sayin'?"
"Where are ye?'*
"Where am I? Where am I? Glory
be to heaven, I'm on the bottom at
last."?New York American.
Confidential Tip.?An alderman tells
this story on Joe Mount, says the St.
Louis Post-Dispatch:
A friend of Joe's came into his
place one day and had a long, oldfashioned
visit. After an hour or so
as he prepared to depart, Joe said:
"Well, Mike, would you have a little
something before you go."
"No, thanks, Joe. Thanks to you,
but I never take anything of late
years."
"Well, then, all right. Have a cigar,
Mika''
"Oh, very well. Give me one of
those "Pride of the First Ward.'
-To?? hnjided out the box. nlaced his
hand to his mouth, looked around
cautiously to see that no one was listening
and whispered confidentially,
"Take two of them, Mike. They're not
very good ones."
Strang*,?Little Willie had got himself
into trouble. He had thrown a
big stone at the parish priest and injured
his eye.
That same night his father took him
in his arms, the whole six years of
him, and told him to ask God to forgive
him for what he had dona He
reminded Willie that God was a witness
of all his actions
"Could God see me in Mrs. Johnson's
garden when I threw that stone
at the priest, dad?" asked Willie.
"Certainly, Willie," replied his father.
"He did see you."
"Strange/' answered Willie, with a
provoking grin, "I was never in Mrs.
Johnson's garden because she ain't
got one."?Liverpool Mercury.
Th* Difference.?Dr. W. J. Williamson,
pastor of the Third Baptist
church, tells the following story of a
colored revival service held recently In
St Louis. The good old colored "exmani
frnm rui?r fn npw SflV
nvt vcn nviii> *t vu> |/v?? w ^
ing:
"Jine de army. Yoh must jine de
army of de Lord.''
One colored brother replied to the
exhorter:
"Ah has Jined de army, parson."
"Whar'd yuh Jine?" asked the exhorter.
"Ah done jined de Baptisas."
"Huh," said the exhorter, "yuh ain't
in de army. Yuh's in de navy."?St.
Louis Post-Dispatch.
A Practical Application.?"When
Josh got home from his education,"
said Parmer Corntaasel, "he started
right in instructin' me about agriculture.
So I didn't lose no time to try
him out"
"What did you do?"
"Sent him out to round up a swarm
of bees."
"Was the experiment successful?"
"Some. It didn't hurt the bees none,
an' kep' Josh from gettin' in the way
fur most two weeks."?Philadelphia
Ledger.
Not the Same.?As illustrating the
haziness of conception which prevailed
years ago as to what and where the
Phillipines were, Dean Worcester
tells in his book, "The Philippines,
" a# q ctaa/1 nIH Inri v
X CLOl CU1U CtViAHIH V* U> QWVi V?V? ?% /
who came' to him on his first return
from the Islands for a bit of information.
"Deanie," she said, "are them Philippians
you have been a-visltin' the
people that Paul wrote the epistle to?"
Nothing Serious^?The wife was
tenderly sympathetic. "Why, George,
dear," she said, when she noted her
husband's tense attitude and set eyes,
"what is the trouble?"
He looked at her absently, as upon
a total stranger.
"Oh," he said at length, "there was
something I was going to worry about
?I know there was?but for the life
of me I can't think what it is."?Puck.
The Son's Proposal.?Lord Reading
said at a dinner in New York, apropos
of Germany's proposal to get back
from the Allies in the shape of a war
indemnity ail of her war expenditure:
"That proposal savors of the impudent.
It reminds me of the son to
whom his old father said:
" 'Yes, George, I've decided to retire
from active life and turn the
business over to you.'
" 'But, father,' said the son. 'can't
you work a few years longer, and
then we can retire together?'"
Qualified.?Merchant?What i want
is a man to put the blame on when a
customer complains?one who is able
to take a calling down without giving
any talk back.
Applicant?I'm your man, sir, I've
been married ten years.?Boston Transcript.
Placing the Blame.?"Do you believe
it is true that one-half the world
does not know how the other half
lives?"
"It may be true, dear, but I should
not worry, for no one can justly
blame you."
Fulfilling Destiny*?"I didn't raise
my boy to be a soldier," said the
pacifist, belligerently.
"Of course not," said the advocate
of preparedness, sweetly. "You raised
him to be a soldierer?and that's what
he is."?Richmond Times Dispatch.
One of the Mysteries.?"Bliggins
says he never reads the newspapers
because they always make him angry."
"But if he doesn't read 'em, how
does he know what to get angry
about?"?Washington Star.

forty men of the Zeppelin, nearly all

CHRISTMAS TIME
(By Charles Dickens.)
Christmas Time! That man must
be a misanthrope indeed in whose
breast something like a jovial feeling
is not roused?in whose mind some
pleasant associations are not awakened?by
the recurrence of Christmas.
There are people who will tell you that
Christmas is not to them what it
used to be; that each succeeding
Christmas has found some cherished
hone or haDDv Drospect of the year
before dimmed or passed away; that
the present only serves to remind
them of reduced circumstances and
strained incomes?of the feast they
once bestowed on hollow friends, and
of the cold looks that meet them
now, in adversity and misfortune.
Never had such dismal reminiscencea
There are few men who have
lived long enough in the world who
cannot call up such thoughts any day
in the year. Then do not select the
merriest of the three hundred and
sixty-five for your doleful recollections,
but draw your chair nearer the
blazing fire?fill the gl^as and send
round the song?and* if your room be
smaller than it was a dozen years
ago, or if your glass be filled with
reeking punch Instead of sparkling
wine, put a good face on the matter.
Look on the merry faces of your
children (if you have any) as they
sit around the fire. One little seat
may be empty; one slight form that
gladdened the father's heart, and
roused the mother's pride to look
upon, may not be there. Dwell not
upon the past; think not that one
short year ago the fair child now resolving
into dust sat before you, with
the bloom of health upon its cheek,
ana tne gayety or mrancy in us joyous
eye. Reflect upon your present
blessings?of which every man has
many?not on your past misfortunes,
of which all men have some. Fill your
glass again, with a merry face and
contented heart Our life on it, but
your Christmas shall be merry, and
your New Year a happy one.

Warehoused Cotton
As Security.
The idea is prevalent that our farmers,
t(- secure the Best Price for their
Cotton, must market it gradually. The
Farmers and the Public Generally
MUST KNOW that their Banks CAN
mi WILL HELP THEM. The mere
knowledge of this fact, it is suggested,
may be effective in sustaining the
price of cotton.
To obtain special consideration in
the Interest Rate, it is required that
Loans be based upon
INSURED, WAREHOUSED COTTON.
Along this line, The BANK OF
CLOVER will consider as favorable
security Receipts issued by the Bowling
Green and Filbert Warehouses,
and offer our services to ANY OF
OUR CUSTOMERS who may need
any assistance in this manner of mar
