I THE KINO HAD TO BORROW.
On « raewt occasion Xing Chris
tian of Denmark while out for e
walk mat one of hi* courtiers who
era* renowned for hi* stinginess. A«
it happened, w a prcriooi occasion
tho tang had “treated-* him, and it
had coma to the royal ear* that the
eoartier had net yet finished grum
bling at haring been “bilked." Full
of dee ire to repair the part, the king
nuhed up to nu subject.
“Now, my dear count, 1 am really
going to stand treat on this occa
sion," ha said.
Then, lo and behold, at usual, on
searching for money the king found
non*! Luckily at that moment h*
mw through the open door the
crown prince and his equerry rid
ing by. The king nuhed out and
called to his son:
“For goodnSM* take, lend mo somo
cash. l\e stood treat to Count go
and-ao again, and if h* finds himself
done for th* second ttmo he will
raise a rebellion."
Tho situation was saved, but the
eonrt has not yet finished its laugh.
—Candid Friend.

Senator Bard of California ii aaid
to be rather carelcee about hii droei
and ia rarely teen In tho frock
coat and chining ailk hat generally
■opposed to constitute the garb of a
senator. His brother, who somewhat
resembles him, it, on tlie contrary,
eery particular about his apparel. A
story is going the rounds to tha ef
fect that the brothers were travel
ing together through tho interior
last rummer when they mat many
of the senator's couMilncnts.
At a little statinu a I lay on
tbeir route a rough old w or board
ed tho trsun and, holding hi* hand
out to Mr. Bard, said: "How d’ye
do, senator? Glad to »oc ycr in
those digginV*
*Tm not tha senator,” explmioad
Mr. Bard. “It’s my brother here
that you are looking for.”
The miner gars one withering
glance at Senator Bard. “Waal,

Tramps’ New Scheme.
The hoboes who wander up and
down the highways in Kansas bare
Invented a plan that furnishes them
the beat living poeaiblc. One of the
Enter* of toe schema went to a
man in tbo western part of
tha ststa not long since and repre
sented that ha was an employee'of
a railway company and was working
on tha section near tho town. Ha
mad# arrangements to board at tha
hotel until lie bad received his first
chock
He was given a good room and
plenty to eat. Every day his dinner
pail, which the landlord had bought
for him, was filled in the morning,
and be went down the track to
work, os it was supposed. Ho board
ed at the hotel for two weeks and
one morning left and did not re
turn. Ha took the dinner pail
along. Investigation proved that he
had never worked on the section
and the only work which he per
formed which left any visible re
sults was on the credulity of tho
hotel keeper.
A Commit Governor.
Tho Kuiu City Journal aaya
that some of tho young women com
posing an orchestra visited the Kan
sas etatehouse the other day. They
were wandering aimlessly about
when a gentleman, observing that
they were strangers, took them into
the office of the governor and intro
duced thorn to that dignitary. Gov
ernor Stanley is an adept at making
people feel at aase, and ho soon haa
the young women laughing and Jok
ing at a gnat rate, but the moat
amusing thing of tU did not occur
antll the party had passed from tho
governor'* office into the corridor.
Thcro one of the girls commenced
to Jump up and down and said ex
citedty: "Glory, glory! Now I eon
go home and Mi papa that at last
I have seen a live governor. Bat,"
she continued more soberly, "I did

I JUDGE’S OPINION OF WOMEN
Which is the truthful sex, or, to
modify, which is the lets truthful
lex? Magistrate Mott says:
“There S thia difference between
i man and a woman: When a wom
in thinks a thing is so, the is ready
to swear to it But it’s different
with e man. Tie doesn’t swear to
inything unless he knows it."
Wait till you hear the howl that .
goes up from the all potential She [
when the full force of the magis
trate's remarks strike* in. She will
ing to swsar to a think! She not

Magistrate Mott has in the
laid aud dona things which have
mused the man among ui to name
hinranathema, bnt until thia uttcr
moe he hadn’t succeeded in draw
ing down upon his aged head the
I wrath of the feminine. Bat a storm

it the barometer or to read the
weather reports furnished by Broth
er Moore to be apprised of a disturb

It comes right down to this: Is
woman intentionally or unintention

Not long ago Profeesor N. IL
Leonard, who was called recently to
the presidency of tbe mining collage

one of the leading men in his pro
fession in Montana. Tbe doctor
|dvl*cd Mr. Leonard to work less
it the desk, excrciso more outdoors
and take beer as a tonic, something
the professor bad never cared for.
Tho doctor met his patient a few
days later as be was leaving the col
lege and stopped to inquire how ha
was feeling.
"About the same,” replied the
professor.
"Did you take beer as I directed 1"
inquired the,physician.
"Yes," responded the professor;
"I took it a few times, but it bo
tame so nauseous that I had to dis
continue it.”
"How much did yon taka?”
"Why, I bought a wbolo bottle
and took a spoonful before each
men I,” answered the profeesor.
