He had been so- |journing there for several d: and one of the young lady waitresses had been very kind and prompt in filling his orders, so on the day he was to | depart he felt in his pocket for @ coin with which to tip her as a reward for her attentions, When she came around he gave her a little punch and held the coin down below the edge of the table so the waitress would not be embarrassed by having others see her accept a tip. Waitresses Lave feelings just the same as other people. She jumped back when he touched her, and grew red in the face, ing at him in surprise. He affected not to notice her discomfiture, how- ever, but the next time she came within reach, made another effort from under the table to present the tip. Again she jumped and with- drew suspiciously, and the philan- thropiv gentleman began to get uneasy for fear she would mistake his good intentions, ‘The third time wasa charm, however, aud he was more particular on what portion of her avatomy he touched her, she saw the ing.

YY “The other day a young man from & region where they don’t have per- simmons, and who was visiting in the West End, was watching a crowd of men at work on a new house, He chatted there awhile and floally look- ing up into @ persimmon tree near by, with the fruit scarcely turned yellow, he inqmred, ‘What are those, any way?’ ‘“Them's persimmons,"’ replied the workman with more truth than gram- “Persimmon exclaimed the young man with obvious interest, ‘why, I've often beard of them, but it’s the first time L ever saw any. Are they good ?"” “Oh yes! just knock you off one and eat it,’’ was the mischievous re- ply. The young man did as he was bid, and put it allin his mouth at once. In about a pair of seconds his physi- ognomy was screwed up into every imaginable shape, and ejecting the unpalatable fruit he started ou a run ‘Here, what's the matter ?’’ yelled | one of the workmen, starting in pur- suit of the youth, not knowing what to think of bis antics, ‘‘Where are you going?’ “Oh,’’ panted the youth, ‘‘my mouth was turning wrong side out, and I was only trying to catch up with it.”’ 7 +t | An old farmer boarded a south-| bound train the other day. He wore populist whiskers, a linen duster with no coat underneath, and shoes that looked like No. 20's, if they made them that size, except to order. Those feet soon attracted the at-| tention of everybedy around, and the farmer seemed blissfully unconscious of it, and seemed to take a delight in| resting one on top of the uther on the seat in front. Presently the conductor came| along, and the old fellow, after fambling around in his pocket, pro- duced a ticket. “Hot day,’’ observed the con- ductor. “I see you have on no retorted the farmer, as he spat a stream of tobacco juice in the middle of the floor, ‘ef I had your job, I'd have a coat.” “Yes,” replied the conductor, | nd if 1 had your feet I’d have them amputated.’’ The passengers smiled, and the far.ner slowly drew them up, looked proudly at them, and deposited them in the aisle to ‘rest ‘em up.”’ 1 |e Tbe other nations look on aghast as the military sensations recently ex- ploded expand and permeate new atmosphere every second; but there} is but little in the scandal of misman- | agement, incompetency and alleged fraud to encourage these other na- tions to tackle Uncle Sam.

The greatest depth in th: has been found northward of the as, wher were obtained. he Great Britain can hardly be regarded as forming part of the Atlantic hol- low. They are rather a part of the platform banks of the European con- tinent which the ocean has over- flowed. An elevation of the sea-bed 100 fathoms would suflice to lay bare the greatest part of the North sea and join Bagieed to Denmark, Hol- land, Belgium and France. A deep channel of water would run down the west coast of Norway, and with this the majority of the fiords would be | connected. A great part of the bay of Biscay would disappear; but Spain and Portugal are but little removed from the Atlantic depression. The 100-fathom line approaches very near the west coast, and soundings of 100 fathoms can be made within 20 miles of Cape St. Vincent, and much great- er depths have been sounded at dis- tances but little greater than this from the western shores of the Iberi- an peninsula.

A preacher ina city not a thous- and miles away has gotten himself into a sad predicament; another out in West Virginia committed suicide, and still another in Indiana eloped with another man’s wife. These in- stances are not cited for the humil tion of any one, but they point a fact and that fact is the weakness of buman nature under conditions and cireumstances that are trying—a weakness certain of us are unwilling to excuse at any time, except per- haps when we are overtaken in the same fault. No doubt but that at different times in their lives these men have condemned with all their heart the very sins in which they have been overtaken themselves; and no one doubts the honesty of their intentions and teachings at the time; but the very fact that their practices now gre not in accord with their pre- cepts is proof of the oft-quoted sertion that ‘the flesh is weal The preachers have preached it and a few have proven it. We must there- fore not be too quick in passing judgment upon them because the words of a few have belied their con- duct. It is their duty to teach us, and there 18 nothing which concerns the public that the pulpit in touch with the developing life of the period may not, at (he proper time and in the proper way, investigate. Of course there are sen palists who are forever denouncing society and laying the blame of very near everything that happens at the door of the society people, most of whom only know society by hearsay or by standing on tip-toe and gaping over the fence very much like the small boy ata ball game. People in so- jciety are as human as anyone else, but society does not eojoy a monop- oly of wickedness. Some of the most wicked people in the world wear the cloak of religion. People who figure in the social world or oc- cupy any position before the public are always targets, and what would be overlooked in lesser lights 18 held up and condemned in them. But whatever may be thought of the conduct of the ministers referred to above, the world will say forgive them, for the ish is weak.
