"qu:ek, hcln .mc with' these things. This is OwHtosb." She Found Out. Two women, previously unac quainted, were, conversing at a re ception. After a few conventional remarks the younger exclaimed; "1 can’t think what has upset that tall man pVer there. He was most attentive to 1 me just now, and now he won’t even glance nt me.” • “Perhaps he saw me come in.” 'aid the other. “He’s my husband.” Unknown to Him. At an evening school in the north, a new pupil presented himself, a fad evidently of uncultivated charac ter. “We are studying some selections from Tennyson’s works,” said the teacher. “Yes. sir” replied the pupil, per fectly willing to accept the state ( meut on trust. “I suppose.” continued the teach er. "you don’t, know much of Tenny son’s works?” "No. sir, I can’t say as I do, though I do know most of the fac tories in the town. Be they steel smelting works, sir?” One Way to Come Out. “I told the old lady what was what last, night.” “And how did you come out?” “On a stretcher.” Had the Mind of a Millionaire. “I give you just three days to pay your rent.” “All right, I’ll take the Fourth of July, Christmas and Easter.” Wliliu’s I .ast Quest ion.

State Department Is the gov ernment's snobocracy. You take off your hat when you go there— or get the icy stare. What's more, you get turned down. Say you want a passport to go somewhere. You think you're en titled to one. Well, you're not, if the State Department disapproves. No explanation's required, either. Some departments are te qutred by law to do certain things.

Post ami Flagg’s Cotton Letter. Nr" York. Aug. 18.—The cotton nineßet is not particularly responsive lo..JKwa..of any sort at the moment bul 'appears gradually setting info that state of torpor generally noted prior to one of these reports. High temperatures and lack of rain in the southwest with increasing complaints of weevil in the east serve to cool somewhat the enthusiasm of shorts and tb bring in some light scattered covering but the reports of rapid ginning holding out the prospect as some think that 2,000,000 bales will have passed through the gins by the fiis; of September render buyers cau tious as such an amount could hard ly be absorbed fully as early as tflnt and no ohe can say when the long expected increase in the volume of hedge selling will make its appear ance, There seems a very good demand for anything better than seven eights but as yet very little for that staple Qr below for which the basis is easier. The feeling is strong in some quarters that the report will show better than 14,000.000 bales for the crop expectancy and some of the private reports are in line with I that. 1 1 EVERETT TRUE BY CONDO j' nc I e .

During the evolution trial at Dayton, Tens., Harrow a»ked Bryan if he believed Jonah was swallowed by a whale. Bryan replied he was of the opinion that the Bible does not say Jonah was swallowed, by a whale, but by a “big fish.” Was be correct in that statement?-—-An s. The word “whale” does not. appear in the book of Jonah, according to the King James version of the Bibie. It says: "Now the Lord had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah. And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.” And again: "The Lord spake unto the fish and it vofnited Jhit Jonah upon the dry laud." But-*-Matthew 12:40 Jem* says i "For as .Tonus was three dny-waud three nights in the whale’s belly; so .shjgl the Sou of man be (Dree days and three" jihts in the heart of the earth.” This is probably a question of translation. A whale is not a fifth but a lnamtinl which suck les its young at its breast. Drops Dead at Party Given in Her Honor. Spray. Aug.
