BERNARD.” A few of the northern papers who have been trying to bother A. G. Bernard have at last shown their hands. It isn’t Mr. Ber-!| nard nor his drainage project thay are hammering away at; it's the salary he is drawing. Sim- ply jealously — Walker Pilot, Mistaken again, Bro. Dare. It is something aside from jealously that prompts the north country papers to oppose Barnard Those who know him longest, know him best. And it is therefore the man and not the project or the salary they are “hammering away at.”’—Brookston Herald. Hunt For & Hangman. The British army was once in diff- cultles through the lack of a hangman Murder was committed by a soldier in the Crimea, but nobody could be found to carry out the sentence of the court martial. It was announced that £20 and a free discharge would be granted to the man undertaking the task. At last a man did volunteer. He was a newcomer to the army. On the night rior to the date fixed for the execution hey locked up the hangman in a sta- ble to keep him safe. In the morning the party at the gallows waited, but there was no hangman. He had gone mad during the night or else he was now simulating madness. The officer In command turned to one of his cap- tains with, “Captain, you will have the goodness to hang the prisoner!” The captain changed countenance, but he pulled himself together and appealed to the sergeants with, “Which of you will hang this man?’ And to spare his captain one of the men volunteered. He afterward had the satisfaction of flogging the man who had volunteered and failed. few months It will burst, send a root into the water and shoot upward a straight, tapering stem covered with beautiful little green leaves. In this manner a young oak tree can be culti- vated and become an Interesting object to all that behold it. As soon as the plant has made its appearance it will be found beneficlal to change the wa- ter frequently. Exorbitant Premiums. “What would you think of a 99 per cent premium?”’ gald an Insurance agent. “A premium of $09,000 on a $100,000 policy.” Hardly worth taking out, eh?” Such a policy was once taken out, though, on a ship thought to be lost. It is a common thing on overdue ships to take out policles at 80 or 85 or 90 per cent. On the Bulgaria and the Croft in 1899 policles at 90 per' cent were taken out, and on the Adelaide Mary, even after two of her lifeboats had been picked up, a policy of 92 per cent was Issued, One Evil Chases the Other, Visitor to the West Indles (who has béen’ warned against bathing in'the river 'because’ of alligators, but has been told by the boatmen that there are none at the river’s mouth)—By Jove, this is ripping! But, I say, how do you know there are no alligators here? Boatman—Well, you see, sah, de alligator -am so turr’ble feared ob de shark.—Punch. English Men and Women. Ebglishwomen are Inherently ' shy, and half the bad manners with which we are credited as a natlon is the re- sult of this shyness. Englishmen suffer from it to the same extent, only in their case shyness Is merely self con- sciousness and part and parcel of an lmmense conceit. — London Ladies’ Fleld. Saw Her Chance, ‘Wife—Mrs. Flareup threw a flatiron at her husband last night because he accidentally sat down on her new bon- net. Now, I couldn’t do a thing like that. Husband—You couldn’t? Wife— Of course not. I haven't any new bon- net. : Took Her Part. Mamma—You must always remem- ber to take your little sister’s part, Tommy. Small Tommy—I do. I took her part of the cake not five minutes ago.—Chicago News. The Wrong Man. “Now, my dear sir,” said the life as- surance agent persuasively, “I wonder it I might put before you oneé or two powerful reasons why you should in- sure your life?” “Don’t let my wife hear!” And the ‘wily Nasr-ed-din Hedja added another penny to his store. The One Exception. . The topic of debate at the Poets’| club meeting was, “Which of the Sexes Contributes Most to Life's Happl- ness?” “I think,” sald a woman called upon to speak on the feminine side, “that there Is no doubt that man contributes most to the life happiness of woman— that Is” (upon second thought) “unless he happens to be her husband.” Not Innocent. “Tommy, I'm going to punish you severely.” “What for, pa?”’ “Now, don’t try that Innocence game. I know all the bad things you've done today.” “No, you don’t, pa. You don’t know ‘where I hid' the' strap you- whack me with.” FoxTefrier's Folnts. The fox terrler Is the most intelligent of all the smaller breeds, and thére is’ hardly a trick that he cannot learn:in a 'very 'few lessons. ‘He'ig usually bealthy, makes 'the - best ‘kind of a watch dog, and his abllity to catch and Kill rats-and other vermin is another story. ‘In'symmetry; sizé and character the dog must'present a generally gay, lively and active appearance. The ter- rler, like the foxhound, must on no ac- count be “leggy,” nor must he be too short in’the leg. ‘ He should stand like a cleverly made hunter, covering a lot of ground, yet with a short back, as before stated. He will then attain the highest degree of propelling power, to- gether with the greatest length of stride that is compatible with -the length of his body. Weight is not a cer- taln criterion of a terrier’s fitness for his work—general shape, size and con- tour are the main points, and if a dog can gallop and stay and follow his fox up a drain it matters little what his weight is to a pound or so, though roughly speaking, it may be said that he should not scale over twenty pounds. —Eugene R. Cole in Home Magazine. A Patient Snake. One does not often attribute the vir- tue of patience to a snake. “Letters From a Surgeon,” however, contain an anecdote In which its existence is evi- dent. Dr. Perry, surgeon of the Twen- tleth Massachusetts, wakened in camp one morning to find himself tightly beld In the clutch of Dr. Hayward, his senlor officer. “Don’t move, John, till T say three!” ordered the senior sharply. “Then seize my hands and spring to your feet. One, two, three!” At the word Dr. Perry jumped, and he never made a cleaner leap. He was Just In time to see a moccasin dive un- der the coat which he had been using for a plllow.
