and please don t fool wiiDh the masheenl. . ,
The . Illinoisad got s up after a moment,
brushed off some of the .dust and dirt, and
then hastened around to the rude - counter
and fiercely shouted
You are an infernal liar and deceiver!
Come out here and I'll mop ' ye over, two
acres of ground in three minute f You put
up that job a-purpose on met Come but and
be licked!" ' ,
There was ' laughing vand shouting and a
great uproar, but the young man never
-changed countenance, never-.cast a"look at
the man as he waved .a package in each hand
and sang out: v - . -
Sur9 . to cure. eonsumptiou in its first
stages! : .T-w-o "packages' for t-e-n cents
don't f 6bl with the m-a-sheeii !" ' ' - '
- The victim backed off, cursing and blow
ing 'and; as he reached the " sidewalk -j he
shook his ; fistr sin a; vigorous manner -and
shouted: "I'll lick ye; if I have to wait 100
yearsl" - - . '
And the reply.came backrv "Warranted

the m-a-sheenl" - -
Where Capt. Kidd Would Have Failed."

In one of New York's trotting towns years
ago, fcplan and Dan Mice were campaigning
together. The race was -one which Dan de
sired to win, and he and Splan had taken
tickets that way. . A third party in the racei
whom we will call Johnston,' had been con
sulted, and .he agreed, to come iu.I Mace
wins the first and secoad heat, then Johnston
wins the next two. i He Was again consulted,
but declared himself oukv-.; Mace argued
their agreement, but of no avail, so he goes
to Splan and says: ."We- must win ' it our
selves; Johnston is out" ' " -
"We kin win it," says Splan.
' They, got the word with Johnston at the
pole,, Spian alongside, . and-: Mace Ttrailing,
About the. three-quarter pole ; Splan s ; sulky
got hooked to Johnston's wheel in some way,
and Mace won the, heat Mace and ; Splan
both entered the stand at once and protested
Johnston's foul - driving. He drove to the
stand, and without leaving his sulky, said,
with an appealing lookj while stroking his
long gray, beard, -"Great Scott, Jedges,
Capt. Kidd on the high seas, in, his best days,
would stand no chance with those f Hows."
" Norrlstown Herald ;
The -petrified, skeleton of a whale,' over
'thirty feet long; his been found on a range
of mountains in Monterey, CaL, oyer 3,0
feet above sea level. . Local scientists are
undecided 'whether the big fish, when alive
fell out of a balloon and landed on the moun
tains, or crawled up there and died of morti
fication after hearing a fish story told by a
California fisherman." Both theories ara
plausibly enough,
