Some half-dozen years ago a writer in Washington wrote an article stating that the secretary of agriculture was investigating the possibility of raising skunks for their fur. and believed in skunk fanning lay great | possibilities for money making. The article was a pure fake. It was intended to be a subtle joke. It resulted in nearly swamping the agricultural department with inquiries -i?a. -i? * * auui^i xkiiiik.-'. now io raise mem and all that sort of thing. It excited the risibilities and after a time some of the wrath of the secretary. But in several parts of the country persons began the breeding of skunks for their fur in'9pite of the unpleasant atmosphere usually surrounding this variety of animal. And some of those who went at it actually made money. Others Invaine almost outcasts. Few person8.earc to be intimate associates of the skunk farmer, you know. The reason will readily suggest itself. But the joke was taken seriously, you see. Some persons have a habit of taking things literally. They are habitually literal themselves. Their sense of humor is undeveloped. What of it? Oh, joking with some persons is a serious business, isn't it?one calling for extreme caution.?Detroit Free Press. HE KNEW First Kid?Say, what is the oil of youth ? Second Kid?Why, strap oil, of course. Every week they gave a new drama of the wild and woolly west. The particular play was a blood-curdlcr of that character, and the stage was pitch dark and two men were fighting a duel. One could hear the knives clash together and the men stumbling around on the stage, but could only faintly distinguish the forms of the actors. After a while there was a thump on the lloor. and the villain hissed, "Ah, ha! Rudolph Tetherington, 1 have you now, and no one nigh to see ine do the deed !** Then the drummer hit the bass drum a blow and the calcium man turned on the light, and away up on a rocky puss the heroine was seen standing. "Coward !" she cried. "Me and God is here!" CONCRETE SNOW FENCES. Concrete lias boon made use of by the Italian government for the const ruction of snow fences to protect the railroads in the district east of the Apennines, where the snowfalls are very heavy and the slides carry everything before them. The fence consists of heavy posts of concrete spaced 6V^> feet apart and' joined by three-inch planks, which slip into grooves in the side of the posts. This fence is said to resist with absolute safety a uniform thrust of 20 pounds to the square foot or a concentrated horizontal thrust of (500 pounds at the top of each panel of the fence. UNANSWERABLE. A schoolboy home for the holidays, wishing to inspire his little sister with awe for his learning, pointed to a star and said : "Do you see that little luminary? It's bigger than tins wide world." "No 'tain't," said his sister. "Yes, it is," returned the youthful scolar. "Then why is it that it don't keep off the rain?" was the triumphant rejofhder. DRY WASTE. Church?I see parties sent out bv the French government to explore the Sahara desert have reported that the obstacles in the way of sand are not so great as was supposed." Gotham?They certainly couldn't have found a way of watering the j stock out there. "Ix?t us give that man into ens tody. He is wearing false whiskers.'* "Go slow." "But he must he up to something nefarious." "Maybe he's only protecting him-| self. lie may be an umpire off duty." He?1 saw a fellow looking over the diamond ring ease at our store this morning.
