When Jim Bridger, the one time fa- mous scout of the plains, grew old he thought he would like to retire from the somewhat arduous life of a plains- man and settle down to the ease of “the east,” which to him meant Mis- sourl. So he used his best endeavor to find a competent man to fill his place and went back to Missourl. A year or two passed, and one day Captain Russell, the commandant of the post whick Bridger had left, was surprised to see the old scout heave in sight. When he came in the cap- tain asked: “Well, Bridger, what brings you back here?” “Captain,” sald Bridger, “I want to 8o back to scouting again.” & “Indeed? Why, I thought you had settled down in the east for the rest of your life!” “Well, cap’n, I'll tell you how it is. I went back to old Missouri, and it youw'll believe it they’'ve got a railroad station within ten mile o’ the old place —yes,_ sir, a railroad station! And, what’s more, they’ve got a ranch now in every four mile. I tell you what, cap’n, the air aln’t pure down there no more!” “Is that possible? But I thought you'd like the good things to eat they have down there. You like good things to eat, I remember.” » “Good things to eat! Why, cap’n, 1 didn’t have a br'iled beaver tail the whole time I was there!” Ample Cause. “What on earth possessed you to be- come engaged to Herbert?” a young lady asked her friend. “You don’t love him an atom!” “I know,” was the candid reply, “but that horrid Jones girl does!” Poor Angel. “I wonder,” said the sweet young thing, “why a man is always so fright- ened when he proposes?” The Power of Habit. After having been a faithful devotee of the automoblle two years or more Mr. Bragdon suddenly was selzed with & violent fancy for motor boats. “A beautiful river runs by this town,” he sald. “Why not haye some enjoyment out of it? In a motor boat you don't have to dodge policemen and rural con- stables.” So he bought one, took a day’s in- struction in the art of managing it and keeping the machinery in running or- der and started out on his first trip with It one bright morning in July. It was late in the afternoon when he returned home. He came in by the back way. His clothes were water soaked, and he had a generally limp and bedraggled appearance. “For pity’s sake, Alfred!” exclaimed his wife, “What has happened to you? Did the boat upset?” “No, Lucy,” he answered. “Don’t say anything about it and I'll tell you. The boat’s all right, but when I had been out on the water an hour or two something went wrong with the mo- tor.” “well?” “Well, before I—er—knew what I was dolng I was over the side of the boat and trying to get under it to fix the thing.” A Shrewd Doctor, “This incident,” said a doctor, “hap- pened in France two or three centu- rles ago, in the days when. public criers were always in evidence. There was a physiclan of Montpeller who used to go from place to place to prac- tice the healing art. He employed a very Ingenious trick to help him on his way. When he came to a town where he was not known he pretended to have lost his dog, which he de- clared was a very valuable animal, and ordered the public crier to roam about, beat.loud on his drum and offer a reward of 25 louis to whoever should bring the dog to him. At the same time the crier yas directed to mention all the titles and academic honors of the doctor as well as his place of resi- dence. Of course it happened that the doctor was not long in becoming al- most the sole topic of talk in the town. The people made up their minds that he must be a famous physician as well as a very rich one, as he could of- fer 25 louis for finding his dog. You might reasonably judge that the dog was never found, but plenty of pa. tlents were.” Winning a Juryman. It is related of Lachaud, the most famous of French criminal lawyers in the last century, that in pleading a cer- tain case he percelved that one of the jurors seemed to be hostile to him and his argument. In the faces of all the other men in the box he.saw with his practiced eyes that his oratory or his shrewdness was having its effect, but this man, in spite of all Lachaud could do, remained frowning, suspiclous, obdurate. however, and presently saw that his opportunity had come. It was a hot day, and a ray of sunlight had pene- trated a crevice on the curtain and was shining on top of the head of this jury- man, who was quite bald. The lawyer paused in his argument and addressed himself directly to the court. “If your honor would please,” he sald, “to order that the curtain in yonder window be lowered a trifie I am sure that the sixth juryman would appreciate it.” This sign of watehful attention won the obstinate juryman's heart and Lachaud’s case.—New York Tribune. Walking on Your Hat. “Nothing is wasted in this house” is the proud remark which you may often hear from the lips of an expert housekeeper. It'ls a boast, however, that few people could really justify. Take the case of a wornout derby hat. In the majority of instances this dis- carded article of headgear finds ity way to the rubbish heap or perhapx into the hands of a passing tramp. If only people were aware of the fact, the most excellent felt soles for the inside of their boots and slippers are thus being discarded. These soles can be cut from the sides of an old hat and are much more comfortable thar the ordinary cork ones, The Japanese and Their Prisoners.

In China spiders are highly esteemed In the treatment of croup. You get from an old wall the webs of seven black spiders—two of which must have the owners sitting in the middle—and pound them up in a mortar with a lit- tle powdered alum. The resulting mixture must then be set on fire, and the ashes, when squirted into the throat of the patient by means of a bamboo tube, are said to effect a cer- tain and immedlate cure. Black spiders are evidently full of medicinal virtue, for they are largely employed in the treatinent of ague as well. In Somersetshire, if one is af- flicted with the unpleasant ailment, the way to get well is to shut up a large black spider in a box and leave it there till it dies. At the moment of its disease the ague should disap- pear. In Sussex the treatment is more herolc; the patient must swallow the spider. B Perhaps, after all, this remedy may not be so disagreeable as it appears, for a German lady who was in the habit of picking out spiders from their webs as she walked through the woods and eating them after first depriving them of their legs declared that they were very nice indeed and tasted llke nuts—London Chronicle. Hairs and Feathers. Hairs are found on almost every- thing that grows, and, if we may so call the fine fibers of asbestus, they even invade the mineral world. From a plece of mineral asbestus quarried from the earth and looking like a stone with a satiny fracture the silken fibers can be rubbed with the finger till the lump is worn away. Becure a feather somewhere—it will be much better than a picture—and you will see that it has a main stem or midrib. Along each side of this ex- tends the thin part known as the vane. Look closely and you will see that this vane is composed of tiny feathers, call- ed beards, fastened together through- out their whole length from where their bases join the midrib to their tips. You can easily separate one of these from the rest, when you will see. how like a tiny feather it is, with what seems a fine fuzziness along each edge. ~—8t. Nicholas. HAPPY WOMAN.
