The “squirter” makes an uneven wetting of the streets and does not lay the dust as as it might.

Mr. Blakeley purchased several fine tracts of land, and got them ata fair price.

Mr. Koors was laid up in bed for a week, with a sprained back, resulting from a “hitch,” and although forbidden to get out so soon, nevertheless his hustling qualities would not allow him to lie in bed and sweat and fume during this torrid weather. Harry’s friends trust that he will séon be as blithe and robustful as ever. It is said that William F. Noble, the Third River homesteader who has been accused of having violated about every statute on the law books of Minnesota, is about to be released finally from jail at Grand Rapids, where he has been serving a ninety- day sentence for violating the game laws. Report says that a justice of the peace attempted to pardon “Bill” before the expiration of his time of sentence, but someone com- plained to higher authorities and he was compelled to resume his station at the county jail in Grand Rapids until the full ninety days are served. It is understood that another war- rant awaits Noble’s release, when he will be again taken into custody and tried for another fracture of the laws, During his residence out on Third river, Noble led . a sort of “tough” life ‘and defied anyone to apprehend him, with the result that he was finally struck by the “strong arm of the law.” ‘Four Hot Months Commg .

Charles S. Carter, the Hines mer- chant and land dealer, came to -the city this morningand spent today. here, looking after some business matters. “‘Charlie” is just as enthu- siastic as ever over the prospects of the Hines country for a great future. He is chock full of optism and is one of the kind of pioneers who make a community great. Senses of Insects. Insects.guide themselves in flight al most entirely and on the ground partly by means of their faceted eyes. The antennae and the buccal sensory or- gans cannot help in aerial steering. Insects perceive the motion of ob- Jects particularly well—i. e, the dis- placements of visual images relatively to_the compound eye. #hey therefore see better when on the wing than at rest, for during flight the image of im- mobile objects is displaced relatively to the eye. Insects distingnish the contours and forms of objects only more or less in- distinctly. Insects appreciate the direction ‘and distance of objects very clearly during flight by the ald of their compound eyes. They can also appreciate; even ‘when at rest, the distance of immobile objects. Certain insects (bees, bumblebees) distinguish color clearly and recognize colors better than: forms. Among others (wasps) the. perception of color appears, on the contrary, to be very The Japs as Jokers. In the days of the second empire Baron Gros was sent to Japan to de- mand the opening of certain ports to French commerce. Among the rest he named to the Japanese ministers a cer- tain city. -The Japanese functlonaries smiled so broadly when he preferred the request that the French ambassa- dor asked them to tell him what gave them so much amusement, but instead said: “We will open the port in question, my . lord, if France in. her turn-will ‘open a certain _port to us.” “What port is that?’ Frenchman. “The port of Liverpool.” “But, your excellencies,” langhing, “Liverpool is not a French port, but an English one.” “Yes,” answered the Japanese, “and the port you named is not in Japan, but in Korea.” The French ambassador .was com- pelled to admit that the joke was against him.—London Answers.

A Little More Than Your Income. A young man, Dbeing asked how much it cost to live in New: York city, replied, “A little more than your in come, whatever that is.” A young city clergyman on his first round of parish calls found a family on: the verge of starvation. The man had been out.of ‘work for months. ‘He had'a wife and five children, the youngest a baby. They had just eaten the last bit of food in the house. The young clergy- man gave them $5 and collected for them-$20 more before the day was out. A few days later he called to see abou! getting work for the man. They were again on the point of starving. With the $25 the woman had bought a fine new baby carriage, some coffee and sugar. - When ‘the clergyman expostu- lated she indignantly denied extrava- gance. The children had broken the old carriage, and it was necessary the baby should have a daily airing. As for the coffee it was the first they had had in weeks. They were accustomed to it and needed it.—Appleton’s Maga: zine. A Queer Cough Mixture. Mrs, Delaney, so well known as ar elghteenth century personage, had & strange prescription for a cough mix. ture. Writing to a friend in January. 1768, she says: ‘“‘Does Mary cough i the night? Two or three snails boiled in her barley water or tea water ol whatever she drinks might be of great service to her. Taken in time they have done wonderful cures. She musi know nothing of it. They give nc¢ manner of taste. It would be bes! nobody- should know. it but yourself and I should imagine six or eight boil ed in a quart of water and strained of! and put in a bottle would be a goot way, adding a spoonful or-two of tha to every liquid she takes. They musi be fresh done every two or three days otherwise they grow too thick.” A strange remedy, and one wonder whether “Mary” took it and benefite¢ by it. " The Frenchman Looked Innocent. Some time since, in a Tremont street store in Boston, a nervous little Frenchman -brushed against a pretty trifie of vase ware valued at about $14 and succeeded in getting several score more pieces out of it than had gone into its making. The floorwalker led the abashed Parisian aside and politely explained that the broken vase must be paid for. Monsieur fetched a handful of small silver and copper, mostly foreign, from his pocket when he was told the value of the trifle. “Mon Dieu,” cried the Parisian, “70 francs!” At this he took out his .bill book and discovered a fifty dollar ex- press draft, which the floorwalker in- stantly seized upon, to the unspeak- able horror of its owner. After deducting the value of the vase the former handed the man his ghange and dismissed him with a floor- ‘walker’s blessing. The express draft reached the bank in due time, with four others as fraudulent, but the vol- atile Iittle Frenchman had departed gouthward with the swallows.—Bohe-' mian Magazine, His Only Chance.
