Lo 7 the Mora trads THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER MUCH LIKE A CONSTELLATION| Fighting Prisoner Had Only Asked to | Be Shown One Star, But He | Saw Several. 1 He had been celebrating, not wisely, but too well, and geiting obstreperous :and noisy and looking for a fight he was tackled by a policeman who in | plain clothes was on his way home, { The drunken one showed fight and was indignant that an apparently pri- | vate citizen should try to arrest him. “Show me your star!" he demanded. | “Don’t believe you're a cop at all Won't go with you till I see your star,” and he aimed a maudlin blow at the policeman. There was a scuffle and a fight, i short-lived but strenuous, and the drunken man was landed in the police station, where he stayed all night. In the morning it was a disheveled and | torn wreck that appeared before the | | magistrate and who listened to the po- { liceman relate the trouble he had im| getting him to the station house. “He wanted to fight me all the way | He kept | *did you show him your star?” “Your honor,” interrupted the pris- oner, “he clouted me on the head and | I saw the star—I saw several of them, enough to go around the entire force.” | WORSE THAN JOB’S TROUBLES Surely Mark Twain, in Flight of Imag. ination, Had Described Worst Com- ; bination of llls. John McLaughlin, who has started a new magazine known as “Catholic Youth,” has had trouble enough to dis- courage a less cheerful person, sinca} he abandoned daily newspaper work, McLaughlin started to work on his first issue three weeks ago, and every- thing went along swimmingly until a! week ago when he woke up in the mid. dle of the night with severe pains in! his hip. . i “Rheumatism, and you’ll be lucky ii | you’re out in a month,” said the doc tor next morning. All last week McLaughlin lay in bed while the “big magazine,” as he calls it, awaited his coming. Yesterday Me. Laughlin appeared at his office and “dug into” his accumulated work with savage energy. “I had only one consolation,” he said ! at the Press club, yesterday. “One of the magazines has a story of Mark Twain this month. It seems a friend of Twain was suffering from a tooth. ache and an earache at the same time, ““Can you imagine a worse com:| bination than that, earache and tooth- ache? asked the friend. “‘I can,’ spid Twain. ‘There . are rheumatism and St. Vitus’ dance!”— Milwaukee Free Press. . i Working in the Dark. i Secretary MacVeagh, at a dinner in ‘Washington, was urging the need of scientific financial laws, “But let us make these laws scien- tifically,” he said. “We must let in the light. We must work In the light, 1f we work in the dark, you know, we will go wrong—like young Cornelius Husk, “Cornelius Husk was called one win- ter morning before dawn, and told te g0 and harness the mule to the dear- born. “The lad was too lazy to light a lan. tern, and in the dark he didn’t notice that one of the cows was in the stable with the mule. “As he tried to harness the cow hig father, impatient at the long delay, shouted from the house: “‘Corney! Corney! what ye doin'?' “‘I can’'t get the collar over the mule’s head,’ the boy replied. ‘Hia ears are frozen.’” Great Plague of London. Medical authorities agree that the epidemic which prevailed in London in 1666 was what we now call bu bonic plague. It is well known that this “Black Death” was prevalent in various parts of the world in ancient times. The outbreaks were peculiarly violent then by reason of the condi- tions of poverty and the almost total absence of sanitation. It was the an- cient medical writers who gave it the name of the plague. The mortality in London in 1665 was appalling. Thousands were swept away by the dread malady, and there b3 ‘was a great exodus from the stricken city. Some of the medical authorities thought it had been brought into Lon- don in bales of merchandise coming from Holland, which originally caine from the Levant; others contended that it was brought in by Dutch pris- oners of war. . ' | Boy Has Right to Be Proud. The proudest boy in France today Is Raymond Marmiesse, who is six- teen years old. He is at present a patient in the Pasteur institute 'in Paris, and has received g-silver medal with his name on it and a letter from the minister of public Instruction. One Sunday afternoon a mad dog raced through the streets of Cahors. It had bitten several other dogs, s horse, and two children. Marmiesse, who was passing, threw himself head- long on the dog, and tried to strangle' It. People shouted to him that he| would be pitten; and he was bitten" terribly. ®is father begged him to come away from the dog, but “Better, one tham half a dozen more children:! be bitten!”shouted the boy, and hei| stuck to the dog till a man manage: ! to slip a noose over its head draw it tight. TACTFUL VOTER WAS THIS Simple Peasant Cast His Ballot to Ac: companiment of Delicious Bit of Humor. The simple people of Alsace, who retain In their hearts a strong love for| France at the same time that they are desirous not to offend their German rulers too much, frequently have a hard time of it when they are brought to the ballot box to vote for representatives in the German parlia. ment. In one election in a certain Alsa. |¥ tian district the two candidates were Kable, an Alsatian of French sympa. | & thies, who had protested against the | annexation after the war of 1870, and | ; On election day a peasant | .4 a German. came to the polling place, which was presided over by a German official The peasant had in one hand a ticket | { on which was printed the name of Kable, and in the other a ticket bear- b | ing the name of the German candi- |y date, . | “Mein Herr,” he said to the German election official, “will you tell me which of these tickets is the better one?” The officer looked at them. dicating the German’s ticket. “Ah, I thank you,” veasant. “I will keep it next my heart.” He folded it earefully and put it inside his coat. then,” said he, with an air of putting it away from him as an unworthy thing, “I will leave it here.” BEAUTIFUL HAIR AT SMALL GOST A Simple Remedy Beautifies the Hair, j Cures Dandruff, Stops Falling Hair. —_— !

Mill employees and others find that they can save even more than this one-fourth on grocery bills by laying in enough supplies to last them from ome <“Pay Day’’ until the next.
