An old negro was sitting on the bank with a shot gun across his knees. “What are you going to shoot, Un- le,” 1 asked him. “Muskrats that are damagin’ the dam,” he replied. “I watched with him for a moment and then saw a rat swimming for the dam. “Shoot, I said “Why don’t you shoot?” Uncle never turned a hair and re- plied: “Does you think ah wants to lose mah job?"” . “Pa, what is the great white plague the newspapers talk about,” asked Bobby. “A heavy snow storm, my som,” re- plied Pa as he wearily resumed shov- elling off the snow.—Minneapolis Tribune. . “I see by the papers that Teddy was introduced as the man ‘whose face was more familiar than the man in the moon.” ” “Yes, and I'll bet there are several well known men just now who wish that the moon would not shine for about one year.” . A man was recently arrested in a northérn Minnesota town on the charge of selling liquor illegally. The Jjudge asked him his name.

A man in Toledo was approached by a book agent. The agent said: “I have here the latest work on artic- exploration and would like to inter- est you in the proposition.” “No chance,” the Toledo man re- plied. “I carried mail in North Da- kota for four years, drove an engine on the Minnesota Iron range for two years and have just escaped from Du- luth.

The hit that “Treasure Island” made 18 one of the most pleasant episodes in literary history. The story that Gladstone got a glimpse of the book | 7 at Lord Rosebery’s house, and spent the next day hunting over London for & second-hand copy, is good enough to be true. Stevenson's own comment on his success 18 levelheaded, if point- ed: “This gives one strange thoughtg of how very bad the common run of books that the wise-acres think too bad to print are the very ones that bring me praise and pudding.” What to Do With Bable: If the custom of checking bables at the department stores and leaving them there continues to grow, it may be necessary for those establishments to hold auctfon sales of unclaimed ba- bies, as the express companies do of parcels left on their hands.—New York ciation.
