William M. Evarts ns a Wit. William Ml. Evarts dearly loved a joke-si taly., indeed, that once. when secretary f s-t; . he caine nigh upon being the deatii of (lie of his subordi mites. A coiisul in the West Indies wrote home stating that his health In that climate was lad and asking for a transfer. At that time there happened to be a vacancy in northern Sweden, and to it the astonished and dismayed consul was transferred instanter by Mr. Evarts. It was not what he had bargained for, and, as an icebound winter was a change that would have meant translation for him to another sphere, the secretary finally relented and gave him a berth elsewhere. At one time in the department of state a new elevator man had been em ploye d who did not know Mr. Evarts sight. In his car was a conspicuous sign to the effect that by order of the secretary of state smoking was prohiib ited. Late in the day the secretary boarded the car in company with a fa mous senator, the latter smoking a ci gar. The new man promptly touched the smoker on the elbow and said, pointing at the notice, "Can't you read that sign?" Mr. Evarts promptly tore down the offending notice and, turning to the elevator man, said: "What sign? I don't see any." The attendant, sus pecting something, wisely held his peace, but he followed the pair out and asked the guard at the door who the little chap with the large bead was. The guard told him.--New York Tribune. Swallowed is Destination. A Clevelander who made a trip to W~ashing~ton says that, much as he was impressed by thie beauty and grandeur of the natioiial capital and its sur roundings, the thing lie will remem ber longest was a remark he heard Imade by a colored deckhand on one of the h andsome boats that take daily trips up and down the Potomac. These boats stop at many of the pic turesque little Virginia and Maryland river tow-as that dot the bank-s of the historic river and take freight ship ments to and from Washington. One of the things shipped from one of the down river towns on the boat the Clevelander rode on was a goat of the Isort that delights the average small boy. The Clevelander was wandering about the boat, interested In the dif ferences between the Potomac river beat and the Lake Erie craft with which he was familiar, when he no ticed the colored deckhand standing almost motioniess before the goat, which w-as tied to one of the supports of the upper deck. Ie was scratching his head and apparently very much puzzled. "What's the matter?" the Cleveland er asked the deck-hand. "Why," answered the colored man, "de goat done cat up whar he gwi-ne to." IThe goat had simply chewed up and swallowed the tag on which was the address to which he w-as being ship ped.-Cleveland Leader. The Biters Bit. "See that party with the jag sitting in the corner of the car?" said a con ductor who w-as riding to the car barns in a Zoo and Eden park car to the con ductor in charge of the car. "Yep. lHe's got a heavy bundle," was the answer. "Well, take tha counterfeit half dol lar with you when you collect his fare. A passenger passed it on me a month ago. If hegives you a dollar, you can shove It on him." The conductor of the car took the lead half dollar, entered the car, and the man with the jag held out a silver dollar and received the counterfeit half and 45 cents in change. "Worked like a charm," said the con ductor as he reached the platform. "Hecre he comes now. lHe wants to get off." The drunken man wabbled to the door and unsteadily descended from the car. "Now we'll split up," remarked the conductor of the car as he drew the dollar from his pocket. And as both of the conductors gazed at the silver dollar they gasped ia unison: "We're up ag'in it' It's a counterfeit dollar." Cincinnati Enquirer. Balcggia Eating Elephant. Stark naked savages, with long, greased plaits of hair hanging down to their shoulders, were perched on every available inch of the carcass, hacking away with lUnives and spears, yelling, cursing and munching, covered with blood and entrails; old men, young men, prehistoric bags, babies, one and all gorged or gorging, smearing them selves with blood, laughing and fight ing. Pools of blood, strips of hide, vast bones, blocks of meat, individuals who had dined not wisely but too well lay round in bewildering confusion. and in two short hours all was finish' ed. Nothing remained but the great gaiunt ribs like the skeleton of a ship's wreck, 'and a few disconsolate vultures perched thereon.-E. S. Grogan Deforc the Royail Geographical Society. There are mainy people w-ho make it a p)oint w hen they r'eceive a goldpiece to w ithdriaw it from circulation by hiidin: it in somne secret place, and the amnout of gold thus hoai'ded is prob' I ably very large. -In Portugal married women retain .their maiden names. Played His Client False. "I shall have to make a lawyer out of that boy of mine. I don't see any other way out of it," declared the well known attorney, with a laugh. "He came into my office the other day on his way home from school and laid a nickel down on the desk before me. "'What is this for. son?' I asked. "'Retainer.' he answered soberly. "'Very well,' said I, entering into the joke. 'What have I been retained upon?' "My boy dug down into his pocket and produced a note from his teacher and placed it before ie without com ment. It was to the effect that he had been 'cutting up' and advised a whip ping. "'Now, what would you advise? asked he in a businesslike voice after I had read the note and saw the trap that young rascal led mue Into. "'I think that out first move should be to apply for a change of venue,' said I. "'Very well,' he answered. 'You're handling the ease.' "'Then we will turn the note over to your mother,' said I. "I saw the young imp's face fall at this, but he braced up and said: "Sce here, pop. you're bound to see me through on this, 'cause you've ac cepted my retainer, you know!' "'Ill argue your case before the court,' I answered, 'but you will have to accept the decision. I would not dare to attempt to influence the court.' "Well, I pleaded the boy's case, promptly had it thrown out of court, and the boy got what he deserved-a good whipping. "It was the first time I ever played false to a client."-Detroit Free Press. Webster and the Plow. "Daniel Webster, when at his home at Marshfield, would never speak on poli tics when here, but he would talk to the assembled neighbors and guests on matters pertaining to farming. On one occasion some Boston friends present ed him with an enormous plow to use on his farm. Webster gave out word that on a certain day it would be chris tened. 'The day arrived, and the sur rounding farmers for miles came to witness the event. A dozen teams with aristo':ratic occupants came down from Boston. It was expected by ev ery one that Webster would make a great speech on the occasion, review ing the history of farming back to the time when Cincinnatus abdicated the most mighty throne in the world to cultivate cabbages in his Roman gar den. "The plow was brought out, and ten yoke of splendid oxen were hitched In front. More than two hundred people stood around on the tiptoe of expecta tion. Webster soon made his appear ance. Ile had been calling spirits from the vasty deep, and his gait was some what uncertain. Seizing the plow handles and spreading his feet, he yell ed to me in his deep bass voice: "'Are you ready, Wright?' "'All ready, Mr. Webster,' was the reply, meaning, of course, for the speech. "Webster straightened himself up by a mighty effort and shouted: "'Then let her rip!' "The whole crowd dropped to the ground and roared with laughter, while Webster, with his big plow, pro ceeded to rip uI) the soil. The same plow can now be seen on top of the Faneuil Hall market la Boston and is a conspicuous object for miles around." -Lewiston Journal. The Belief In Charms. A belief in charms has existed In all ages and has been shared by all peo ples. It is a natural result of supersti tion. The phylacterles worn by Mo hammedan and Jewish women on the forehead form but one phase of this universal belief. Faith, however, is deemed essential and is true of all tal ismans that are copied from old pat terns and not constructed according to the rules of the cabalistic art. Talismans to be efficacious must be constructed when the planets are in benefic configur-ation. It is then that the magic geometrical words and fig ures inscrIbed thereon are more potent in their results for good. The date of birth of the person for whom the talis man is made must also be considered, so that his particular lucky star Is tak en Into consideration. Many great men were believers In talismans and wore them constantly. Napoleon especially was very supersti tious and carried on his person a charm given to him by an EgyptIan priest, which he regarded as being responsi ble for his great success in battle. The Rothschild family, it is said, also has a talisman, which is an heirloom. It is in the shape of a snuffbor and is said to have brought the family the great wealth for which it is celebrated.-New York Herald. Settled Out of Court. A barrister riding his bicycle on a path was caught by a policeman. The gentleman at once came off the path and tried to reason with the policeman. "You aren't really going to run me in for this?" he asked. "Yes, sir. I can't help it." "Well, come In here (a public house close by), and we will talk about it." The policeman followed the gentle man, who ordered two glasses of beer, one for himself, the other for the po liceman, both of which were finished before he again remarked: "Surely you are not really going to make a fuss about this?" "I must, sir. It's my business." "Ah! Then at the same time it will be my business to report you for drink ing beer while on duty." The policeman's expression sudden ly changed. "You're a lawyer, I suppose, sir?" "Yes." "And a sharp one, too," he said as he went out and left the gentleman to continue his ride.-London Answers. The Same Thing. "I'm sorry we haven't much of a din ner," said Spatts to Bloobumper, whom he had urged to stay for that meal. "You ought to have dropped In last evening. We had a stunning dinner then." "Why, papa," chirped Sammy Spatts, "that's Just what you told Mr. Taddells at dinner yesterday!" -Detroit Free Press. She Walked on Him. "Did you propose to her? What was the result?" I"Well, she took me for a walk." "Ah! To give you a chance to tel her, eh?~" "Not at all. I say she took me for a walk because she used me as if I was one. She got on to me with both feet." -Philadelphia Press. Repeated. "Ah, that was a rare one!" he ex claimed, after snatching a kiss. "Yes." she said, somewhat disap pointed that he had missed her lips in his haste and merely kissed her upon the chin; "it was under done." IThen lie proceeded to overdo It.-, Was In the BNiness. It was on a Seventh street car that a I well dressed man carried his hand to his jaw now and then and uttered a stifled groan. After a bit a fellow pas senger had his curiosity aroused and brusquely queried: "Toothache?" "Yes." "I've been there and know all about it. If she's holler and has the jumps, it ain't no use fooling around. What you want to do is to go to a Gentist." "Um! Jerusha, but how it aches!" "Go right to the dentist and have it yanked out. Man with the toothache always feels a little scared about hav ing it yanked, but that's all imagina tion, you know." "I'd rather be shot!" groaned the suf ferer. "Oh, pshaw! Go to some dentist who gives laughing gas. He'll give you gas and take the tooth out without your knowing it. I pledge you my word that it won't hurt any more than paring off a finger nail." "Um! What a liar! G'way from me!" "Why, man, I pledge you my word that you'll never" "Don't talk to me! I know all about it! I've been a dentist myself for the last 15 years!" "Oh, you have!" growled the other as he backed away. "Well, that's dif ferent. It will not only seem to you as if your blamed old head was being pulled off your shoulders, but your jaw will ache two weeks after, and I'm durned glad of it too!"-Washington Post. Sorrows of the Millionaire. Look at the ways of the millionaire. Given his million, he gives up his house and builds himself a small, first class hotel in some big city, which for the greater part of the year is occupied by servants. He next erects a country palace at Lenox or at Newport. This he calls a cottage, though it usually looks more like a public library or a hospital or a clubhouse. Then he builds himself a camp, with stained glass windows, In the Adiron dacks and has to float a small railroad in order to get himself and his wife's trunks into camp. Shortly after these follows a bungalow modeled after a French chateau, somewhere in the south, and then a yacht warranted to r cross the ocean in ten days and to pro duce seasickness 12 hours sooner than the regular ocean steamer becomes one of the necessities of life. Result, he never lives anywhere. To occupy all his residences, camps and bungalows he has to keep eternally on a the move, and when he thinks he needs a trip to Europe he has his yacht got ready and sends it over, going himself on a fast steamer. Oh, it's a terrible thing to be a millionaire and have no where to lay one's head, with every poorer man envying him, many hating him and hands raised against him ev erywhere! - Woman's Home Compan ion. Fiddled Into Office. If history be true, Governor Taylor _ of Tennessee is not the only man who fiddled himself into office. Lossing re lates that In 1848 he met at Oswego, N. Y.. Major Cochran, then nearly 80 years old, a son-in-law of General Phil ip Schuyler, who told the story of his election to congress during the admin istration of the elder Adams. A vessel was to be launched on one of the lakes in interior New York, and people came from afar to see it. .The young folks gathered there, determined to have a dance at night. There was a fiddle, but no fiddler. Young Cochran was an amateur performer, and his services were demanded. He gratified the joy-e ous company, and at the supper table one of the gentlemen remarked, In commendation of his talents, that he was "fit for congress." The matter was talked up, and he was nominated and elected a representative In con gress for the district then comprising the whole of New York west of Schenectady. He always claimed to have "fiddled himself into congress." It seems that history repeats itself, according to the proverb.-Washington Star. Preferred to Have Her Talk. They were exchanging reminiscences of a pleasant evening. "And wvhat did your wife say when you got home?" asked one. "Nothing,"~ answered the other. "Nothing? Well, you were in luck." "Oh, I don't know. I'd rather dodge words than some other things."-New York Mail and Express.t Practical Application. A certain minister during his dis course one Sabbath morning said, "In each blade of grass there is a sermon." The following day one of his fiock discovered the good man pushing a lawnmower about his yard and paused to say, "Well, parson, I'm glad to see you engaged in cutting your sermons short!"-Chicago News. Possible Explanation of It. "I wonder what's the matter with Willie Jenkins? He's been getting into all sorts of mischief of late, especially Thursday afternoons." "Oh, that's easily explained. That's the afternoon Mrs. Jenkins goes to a mothers' meeting to discuss the proper method of child education and disci pline."-Chicago Post. To Swallow His Own Advice. I "I had a horrible dream last night,"i said IHuddleston when he came down to breakfast the other morning. "What was it?" asked his wife. "I dreamed that I was in purgatory and was made to do all the things I had told my friends I would do if I were in their places."-Brooklyn Life.f He Grabbed the Offer. Ex-Governor George W. Peck of Wisconsin, author of "Peck's Bad Boy," was running a little country weekly in the pineries in the early six ties. It was an unimportant sheet save for one column of jokes which Peck wrote each week. This depart ment caught the eye of "Brick" Pom eroy, who was then printing his Dem ocrat in Lacrosse, Wis., and one day he wrote to Peek asking him whether - he would be willing to go- down to La crosse and work for The Democrat at $25 a week. Three days later Mr. Pomeroy got this telegram: "I accept your offer. quicker than instantly. F'or heaven's sake don't withdraw it!" He Explained. At a school one day a teacher, hav ing asked most of his pupils the dif ference between an island and a penin sula without receiving a satisfactory answer, came to the~last boy. "I can explain it, sir," said the bright youth. "First get two glasses. Fill, one with water and the other with milk. Thea catch a fly and place It in the glass of water. That fly is an island, because it is entirely surround ed by water. But now place the fly in the glass of milk, and it will be a, peninsula, because it is nearly sur rounded by water." Tern boy went to the top of the class. YoungWomen The entry into womanhood is a critical time for a girl. Little men strual disorders started at that time soon g into fata comlications.
